It is necessary to give full play to its role in promoting the transformation and application of scientific research achievements, and transform scientific and technological achievements on the spot, so that more advanced concepts, cutting-edge technologies and scientific research achievements can blossom and bear fruit in Wuhan; it is necessary to give full play to the technical leadership of academicians and experts Through carrying out activities such as academic exchanges and scientific popularization, it will cultivate and build a strong team of scientific and technological talents.

Gao Zongyu pointed out that China Railway Bridge Bureau and China Railway Bridge Institute were born because of the construction of the Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge. Over the years, the two units have aimed to solve the key common major technical problems that restrict the development of the industry, and continuously improve the innovation capability and core competitiveness of China's bridges. Strong alliances have jointly promoted the integrated development of the bridge industry chain and innovation chain, promoted the rapid development of bridge technology, and constantly created new bridge construction miracles. A series of bridge projects with international influence, such as the Ma Bridge, have created a bridge business card that Zhang dares to be the first in the world, and opened up a road of independent innovation with Chinese characteristics for Chinese bridges to go to the world.

Gao Zongyu said that as an incoming academician of the China Railway Bridge Bureau Academician Workstation, he will continue to promote the active cooperation between the China Railway Bridge Institute and the China Railway Bridge Bureau in project research and development, talent training, achievement transformation and other aspects, and work together to provide better innovation and development for the China Railway Bridge Bureau.
