Early if possible, fast if possible! At the beginning of the Chinese New Year, Shanghai, which is seizing new tracks and cultivating new momentum, is fully accelerating its pace. From the 12 inch wafer production line invested by SMIC with a scale of 100 billion yuan, to SAIC Zhiji Intelligent Connected Vehicles, and then to the virtual idol “Life Experience Officer,” Shanghai is fully accelerating the pace of digital technology empowering the real economy. After the GDP has crossed the 4 trillion yuan mark, the “new track” and “intelligent manufacturing power” are accumulating new momentum for Shanghai’s high-quality development.
1. Hurry up early and keep moving forward without stopping
On the eve of the Spring Festival, Shanghai established a billion yuan “Domestic Automotive Chip Special Fund” to break through bottleneck technologies, shorten development cycles, and contribute “Shanghai wisdom” to the innovative development of China and even the global automotive industry; Xuhui District in Shanghai, which has gathered a national level artificial intelligence industry cluster, has proposed to “explore the establishment of the Metaverse Innovation Alliance”
There is also Zhiji Automobile, which has achieved “zero to one” and refreshed the speed of “Shanghai Intelligent Manufacturing” in just 22 months without stopping. Since the beginning of this year, the first batch of Zhiji L7 Beta trial versions have been touring the streets and alleys in many parts of the country. It is expected that Zhiji L7 test drives will gradually arrive at stores by the end of February, and actual vehicle test drives will be fully launched in early March.
These projects are a microcosm of Shanghai’s development of new technologies, new formats, and new models. This year’s Shanghai Two Sessions included “strengthening the layout of new tracks and terminal driving” in the work report of the municipal government; The first executive meeting of the municipal government after the Spring Festival agreed in principle to the Implementation Plan for the Standardization Construction of Shanghai’s Urban Digital Transformation. The consensus of this economic center city is that whoever can occupy the new track of economic digitization can better grasp the initiative of future development.
Currently, digitization, networking, and intelligence are key features of a new round of technological revolution and industrial transformation, bringing profound changes to the manufacturing industry in all aspects. They not only give birth to new formats and models, but also give new potential to enhance the value of traditional industries. To develop and deepen new models, it is necessary to promote industrial digitization and informatization, and help the organic integration of manufacturing and emerging industries. The New Generation Information Technology and Application Exhibition/Industrial Internet Exhibition under the China International Fair for Industry and Commerce continues to focus on 5G+industrial Internet, industrial operating systems and software apps, digital supply chains and industrial e-commerce, accelerating the deep integration of new generation information technology and manufacturing industry chains, promoting win-win cooperation between industry enterprises and partners, assisting the development of multilateral industries, and empowering industrial digital and sustainable development. Leading enterprises in industries such as intelligent networking core technology gather together to build a platform for government and market exchange and interaction, leading the continuous development of the industry.
