What are the bosses talking about digitalization?

In 65438+February last year, the 5G Industry Times News Agency published an article "Where have all the Internet bosses gone?" It is mentioned that the absence of the Internet giant at the Wuzhen Summit in world internet conference has subtly announced the change of the theme of the times.

When the theme of the times changed from Internet to industrial Internet, 5G and industrial Internet became hot words in world internet conference, with the focus on digital transformation. The just-concluded 20021Wuzhen Summit in world internet conference is no exception.

How to build a future factory?

Chu Jian, the founder of Kong Zhong and Lanzhuo, said that the future factory is the practical foundation of the industrial brain. To realize the future factory, we must first realize automation. At present, China's chemical enterprises have basically realized basic automation. It is very important to further realize digitalization on the basis of automation, and it is necessary to change from automation of Industry 3.0 to intelligent industry 4.0. The key to digital transformation is the construction of industrial brains and future factories.

Lin Zhongqin, an academician of China Academy of Engineering and president of Shanghai Jiaotong University, believes that in the future, the factory will integrate robots, Internet, big data, digital twins, artificial intelligence and other high technologies, and realize the production goal of high efficiency, high quality and green with the production form of few people, no one and black light factory. It is necessary to build a business closed loop of the whole process of the future factory with intelligent terminal, edge computing, cloud computing, big data and cloud decision-making, and realize the application of various scenarios of the future factory with "intelligence at the terminal, wisdom in the cloud and control in the screen".

Tiehong Guantian, president of Japan Institute of Business and Technology (Tokyo), also mentioned that the pursuit of the future factory can be summarized in three sentences as higher quality, better cost and higher efficiency, which is the ultimate and highest pursuit of the future factory.

In Chu Jian's view, Industry 4.0 is an industrial revolution driven by industrial software. Industrial software is not a pure IT product, but an industrial product in essence. In the future, factories should not only introduce new IT technologies, but also help manufacturing enterprises to enhance their core competitiveness through advanced technologies. This is the core competence that the factory should have in the future, so IT is necessary to continuously improve PT (process technology), ET (equipment technology), at (automation technology), OT (operation technology) and IT.

How to build the future factory quickly and at low cost? In short, "in the era of mobile Internet, smart phones and their supporting ecology have been formed. We extend this understanding to the industrial field and turn traditional factories into smart factories or future factories. " Chu Jian said that if we can build an industrial operating system, we can manage all the data in the factory, just like the operating systems of mobile phones and computers, manage all the chips and integrate all the physical connections into one system. Through the open system, professionals can develop various applications around safe production, energy saving, product quality improvement, cost reduction and efficiency improvement, that is, industrial software or industrial APP.

Wang Hongtian, CEO of Inspur Group Co., Ltd. said that "industrial brain+future factory" is based on industrial Internet, with data as resource elements, integrating industrial chain, supply chain, capital chain and innovation chain, connecting government and enterprise, integrating consumer and manufacturing, digitally empowering enterprises, providing digital services for industries, providing digital means for economic governance, and promoting quality change, efficiency change and power change.

Zhang Shunmao, senior vice president of Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. believes that "industrial brain+future factory" is a new idea, new exploration and new path. "The future factory is an organic medicine. This agent can perceive, think and execute agility, and the' brain' is part of it. " Zhang Shunmao said, "Huawei is making great efforts to build the' black land' of the industrial Internet and create various industrial applications for partners from all walks of life."

5G is a catalyst for digital transformation.

Ke Wenrui, Chairman of China Telecom Group Co., Ltd. said that new information infrastructures such as 5G, Gigabit optical fiber and cloud provide connectivity, computing power, algorithms and platform services, just like water, electricity, roads, oil and gas in the era of industrial civilization, which have become indispensable infrastructures for economic and social development.

Gao Tongqing, deputy general manager of China Mobile, directly pointed out that the development of 5G gave birth to three boosters of "new infrastructure", "new elements" and "new ecology" and accelerated the digital transformation of economy and society. A new generation of information technology represented by 5G is being integrated into all walks of life, realizing the integration of real economy, information technology and services, and triggering profound changes in production methods and business models.

In Gao Tongqing's view, to give full play to the value of 5G, both the new infrastructure and the "5G+" plan proposed by China Mobile have a goal, which is to truly empower 5G technology to serve the public and serve the economic development.

Zhang Jianfeng, president of Alibaba Cloud Intelligent, also mentioned that 5G, as the first of new infrastructure projects, will accelerate the digital transformation of various industries and give birth to more new application scenarios, new construction models and new business models.

Peter Weck Searle, global executive vice president, chief digital officer and head of digital business of Schneider Electric, said that digitalization is becoming more and more common in various scenarios such as architecture, data center, smart grid, industry and home, and 5G is a powerful enabler or catalyst behind this trend. We have seen the great potential of 5G technology applied to industrial scenes, such as the significant improvement of productivity and efficiency, which is particularly prominent in those applications that need real-time and high-quality connections to ensure accuracy, accuracy and reliability.

5G technology has a simplified network architecture, which can provide a more convenient and flexible cross-domain flat structure. In this way, the data flow between the information technology network and the operation technology network in the factory is more flexible, and the data can be transmitted back in real time to optimize the production process.

He Xiaodong, vice president of JD.COM Group, said that 5G has developed vigorously in the past few years. At the same time, 5G also has its problems to be solved, such as the high cost of base stations and the need to reduce operating costs. At the same time, exploring more commercial applications is the key. How to make more people and enterprises apply to real 5G and develop more scenarios and applications based on 5G capabilities is the key to the development of 5G.

Yu Xiaohui, president of China Information and Communication Research Institute, pointed out that there are still many problems to be solved, such as cost, network engineering and operation mode. How to turn the capabilities of 5G into practical applications and realize the large-scale development of 5G applications. Up to now, the application of 5G has been involved in almost all fields and industries of social life, but it is still in its infancy, mainly for basic scene adaptation of some key industries.

Security is the fundamental guarantee for the development of digital economy.

Industrial Internet is deeply integrated with network information technologies such as digital twinning, 5G and artificial intelligence. In the future, the factory will be fully digitized, but it also faces many challenges. Among them, how to ensure data security and network security is one of the topics that cannot be ignored.

He Wenzhong, chief engineer of China Electronics Technology Group, reminds us that security is the fundamental guarantee for the development of digital economy.

Qi Xiangdong, chairman of Qi Anxin Group, believes that digitalization has become an important driving force for social and economic development. To deepen the digital reform, we must first build a strong network security project.

Zhou, founder and chairman of 360 Group, said that in the process of digitalization, the first challenge facing network security is the change of environment. Digitalization has three characteristics: everything can be programmed, everything must be interconnected, and big data drives business. Its essence is the basis for software to redefine the world.

In the future, digitalization is no longer a simple security problem in the past, but a complex security problem. Therefore, 360 proposes to reshape network security with digital thinking, build new tactics, new frameworks and new capabilities, and form a new future-oriented digital security system.

Li, chief security officer and deputy general manager of China Mobile Communications Group Co., Ltd., also mentioned that from the domestic perspective, the threat of network security is still severe. CNCERT released some data in the first half of this year, and it can be seen that more than 4 million hosts were controlled due to server attacks. It can be said that critical information infrastructure is frequently attacked, and the influence of malicious programs is constantly expanding. From an industry perspective, the cloud platform has become the hardest hit area for cyber attacks, and the application of 5G has also brought new risks, which is equivalent to faster speed, but the risks have indeed increased and the exposure has increased. Network security technology needs innovation urgently. With the development of technology, even 6G, we released a 6G white paper on network security vision, and the technology needs to keep pace with the times.

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, talked about the importance of data security by taking the intelligent networked car as an example. He said that data security is the key to the success of smart connected cars, which requires the cooperation of industry and supervision.

Tesla's data center is located in China, and it stores all the data generated by China business, including production data, sales data and service data. Data including personal information of all users will also be stored in China and will not be transferred overseas.

At the same time, Musk also said that China has invested a lot of resources and energy to apply the latest digital technology to all walks of life, including automobiles, thus making China a global digital leader. In the future, Tesla will continue to increase its investment and R&D efforts in China.
