Science and technology are the foundation of the country's prosperity, and the innovation is the soul of the nation's progress. Since the 18th CPC National Congress, with his deep historical insight, broad international horizons and profound strategic visions, President Xi Jinping delivered a series of important discourses on some major issues, such as the S&T innovation evolution, the S&T and industry reform, the international S&T cooperation, the S&T institution reform, the national defense S&T, and the S&T talent cultivation. These discourses are very instructive with important theoretical significance. This paper systematically reviews President Xi's important discourses on the S&T innovation, focusing on 10 prominent features, and briefly discusses their scientific connotations and practical significance.
