    With the continuous expansion of application fields, blockchain technology has received extensive attention from the whole society. This paper uses the Herfindahl-Hirschman index and the entropy index to measure and analyze the patent concentration of China's blockchain technology patent holders, various branches, and provinces. The results show that China's blockchain technology patents are generally decentralized, but the concentration degrees of patents in the branches of blockchain technology are significantly different. Among them, the patents of data layer and application layer technologies are more scattered, and the patents of incentive layer technologies are more concentrated. The concentration degrees of blockchain technology patents in various provinces and cities are different. The patents in the eastern region are more scattered, but the patents in the western region are more concentrated. In response to the conclusions of the analysis, the government should introduce policies to avoid excessive concentration and decentralization of patents. Among them, the eastern region should promote the formation of patent pools, integrate blockchain technology resources, and the western region should strengthen the transfer and transformation of patent results, and promote technology to flow toward the market. Companies should make breakthroughs in incentive layer technology to increase R&D efforts, and appropriately promote patent concentration in the data layer and application layer. Universities, research institutes and enterprises should jointly conduct research and establish a cooperative and sharing technological innovation system.

    Joe Biden, as the new president of the United States, attaches great importance to climate change and sets out an ambitious "clean energy revolution plan" to deal with the climate crisis, announcing to return to the Paris climate agreement to ensure that the United States will achieve carbon neutrality by 2050. This paper interprets the key points of Biden's "clean energy revolution plan" and its climate policy propositions, and makes a retrospective analysis of the development history of American energy policy to probe deeply into the Biden administration's climate and energy propositions. In terms of energy policy, the study found that Biden continues the consistent position and proposition of the Democratic Party to support clean energy revolution, holding the same basic position with the Obama era, but there are important changes in two aspects: First, the United States has achieve energy independence, which will bring more wiggle room for the Biden government and subsequent governments to make domestic and foreign policy choices, and its strategic means will be less restricted by energy factors; Second, the Biden government will pay more attention to the core role of clean energy technology innovation, with the help of the source innovation advantage and scientific and technology leadership of the United States, lead the formulation of a new set of rules of the game, reform the international energy governance system under the new situation, firmly control the international discourse power to obtain the maximum benefits, and further strengthen the use of scientific and technological advantages to suppress major competitors. Then, this paper analyzes its influence on the world energy pattern and the future development of China, which mainly includes: 1) the differences in the cognition and behavior of climate change will cause future Sino-US frictions; 2) wariness of China will intensify competition between the United States and China in climate-related innovative technologies; 3) the U.S. may form a coalition of "democratic countries" to continuously exert pressure on China. In view of this, some policy suggestions for China are put forward: According to the new development pattern of "Dual Circulation", China should accelerate the independent innovation and application of key technologies of clean energy; accelerate the establishment of national independent innovation demonstration zone for multi-energy integration, and contribute solutions to China's goal of achieving carbon peak and carbon neutral; deeply integrate digital technology and energy technology to build China's smart energy system; deeply participate in global cooperation, and actively participate in international energy cooperation The reform of energy source management system will create a good external environment for China's energy transformation; opening a new model of cooperation between China and the United States and share responsibilities to lead the global transition to green and low-carbon energy and combat climate change.

    The experiences of representative scientific and technological powers in establishing, completing, and improving the national innovation system can provide reference for China to construct a national innovation system that adapts to the new pattern of "dual circulation" economic development and the needs of national defense modernization during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. This article, firstly, reviews and comparatively analyzes the understanding and definition of the national innovation system by different scholars at home and abroad. Secondly, taking World War II as the starting point in time, this paper studies the evolution of the French national innovation system. It is found that the construction of the French national innovation system has gone through four phases that may be slightly staggered: from 1939 to 1957, France vigorously developed scientific research; from 1958 to 1989, France accelerated the construction of a system for science and technology planning, evaluation, consultation, and achievement transformation; from 1990 to 2014, France promoted the reform of the national science and technology system; from 2015 to present, France is advancing in multiple ways to defend its status as a world's scientific and technological power. Finally, based on the evolution characteristics and practical experience of the French national innovation system, combined with China’s national conditions and the current status of innovation system construction, four enlightening suggestions are put forward: Explore and implement a classification evaluation mechanism and a differentiated index system; Build a demand-oriented multi-dimensional guarantee mechanism for the transformation of scientific and technological achievements; Optimize and improve the R&D investment and allocation mechanism; Speed up the top-level design of the large-scale development of new scientific research organization models.
