"In the past decade, China Mobile has worked together with its industrial partners to forge ahead, give full play to the 'shoulder pole effect' of stimulating investment and promoting consumption, and jointly promote information technology to serve the overall development of the country and the economic, social and people's livelihood." On December 11, at the China Mobile 2022 Global Partners Conference, Yang Jie, Chairman of China Mobile, recounted the development achievements of the past decade.
First, strengthen the foundation and consolidate the foundation in ten years, and jointly promote the leapfrog development of infrastructure. The second is to gather momentum over the past ten years to jointly support the acceleration of the digital economy. Third, we will work together to deepen the security and convenience of information services in ten years to benefit people's livelihood. Fourth, ten years of scientific and technological breakthroughs have led to breakthroughs in core technology groups. Fifth, ten years of win-win progress and joint efforts to promote the prosperity and growth of industrial ecology.
Yang Jie said that as a strategic, basic and leading industry of the national economy, the information and communication industry should be good at analyzing trends and grasping laws from the long history and the tide of the times. As human society has entered the era of information civilization in an all-round way, information and energy, as the two main lines driving the progress of human civilization, are evolving from relatively independent development to mutual integration and innovation, showing three trends in general.
First, information energy promotes the overall leap of human social productivity. Through the large-scale use and value mining of information, new productivity will be nurtured, "digital intelligence energy" will be injected into the economy and society, and three upgrades will be driven: first, infrastructure upgrading. New information infrastructure such as 5G, computing network and capability middle office can efficiently connect all links of the whole chain of information perception, transmission, storage and processing, and provide a full stack of information services that are organically combined and flexibly invoked. The second is the upgrading of production factors. Technology and data have become new production factors, and are rapidly integrating into production, distribution, circulation, consumption, social services and other fields, greatly improving total factor productivity. The third is the upgrading of production tools. Software, hardware, platform, etc. based on the new generation of information technology accelerate the iterative development, and precipitate professional knowledge in various fields into intelligent production tools, which greatly extends human intelligence and intelligent labor space.
Second, energy informatization promotes the overall transformation of the development mode of human society. With the new generation of information technology deeply integrated into the economy, society and people's livelihood, the process of energy utilization and transformation is more intelligent, promoting the efficient allocation and rational use of all kinds of resources, and accelerating three transformations: first, the digital and intelligent transformation of the production mode. The energy required by smart grid, smart factory, etc. to promote production is comprehensively "customized", which is conducive to unified monitoring, flexible combination, and intelligent scheduling of the whole production process. Second, the digital and intellectual transformation of lifestyle. All kinds of shared service platforms promote the real-time interaction of information on a larger scale, support the accurate matching of supply and demand, and help people to obtain a higher quality life experience with less energy consumption. The third is the digital and intellectual transformation of social governance. Digital government, smart city, etc. can effectively gather diversified and decentralized data information, help governance entities to allocate all kinds of energy in a broader region and more fields, and support the optimal allocation of public resources.
Third, the integration of information and energy leads to the reshaping of the future shape system of human society. Facing the post information era, information and energy will interact and coexist in an all-round way, bringing systematic changes to human society, and accelerating three integrations: one is the integration of virtual world and real world. Virtual spaces such as the meta universe and digital twins will comprehensively map the social and material attributes of the real world and extend the boundaries of time and space in an all-round way. The second is the fusion of information driven and energy driven. Driven by the Internet of Things, AI, big data and other new generation information technologies, it will eliminate the interaction restrictions of multi subject information and energy, trigger the fusion of "bit × watt", and promote the coordinated development of "human-computer and things" in a super large-scale and super automated way. The third is the integration of silicon based life and carbon based life. Relying on machine vision, tactile Internet, brain computer interface and other technologies, create "digital intelligent people" with knowledge sharing and group cooperation capabilities, enrich human diversified experience, and support the organic unity of the material world and the spiritual world.
In view of the future development strategy, Yang Jie stressed that China Mobile will expand its information service space and work on "two new models". The system builds a new information infrastructure focusing on 5G, computing network, capability middle platform, etc., and solidifies the base for efficient information flow.
Specifically, we will consolidate the leading edge of 5G, appropriately deploy the high-quality, intensive, efficient, safe and reliable 5G network in advance, accurately expand the coverage of the gigabit optical network, and continue to improve the Internet of Things access capability that supports the integration of fixed and mobile, and the combination of breadth and narrow. Deepen the practice of computing power network industry, build a three-level low delay computing service circle, accelerate the research and operation of "computing power brain", strengthen the integration and management of various computing power, and promote innovative applications such as East Data West Storage, East Data West Calculation, East Data West Training, and East Data West Distribution. We will promote the intelligence empowerment of the platform, continue to gather internal and external common capabilities such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, and precise positioning, enrich the "central kitchen" sharing modes such as service output, resident development, and integrated applications, and improve the level of integrated empowerment.
Yang Jie also said that China Mobile will aim at the forefront of scientific and technological innovation and accelerate the construction of "four highlands". Build a technology leading highland. Continue to lead the formulation of 5G follow-up standards, and accelerate the evolution of 5G to network intelligence, heaven and earth integration, and synaesthesia integration; We will strengthen the tackling of cutting-edge technologies such as 6G, next-generation optical communications, and space space integration. At the same time, we should comply with the general trend of opening up and cooperation and jointly improve the "four energy levels". Adhere to the principle of "opening the door" to run a chain leader, build a collaborative innovation base for the industrial chain, implement the "ten million" partnership on the chain plan, and create an industrial ecology of division of labor, cooperation, complementary advantages, and efficient operation.
The reporter noticed that during the Partner Conference, Yang Jie mentioned the contents of Meta Universe and Digital Wise People for many times, which attracted the attention of global partners and industries. For example, China Mobile will explore and innovate the applications of Meta Universe such as Virtual Digital Wise People and immersive entertainment, and take the lead in building the Meta Universe Alliance. It is reported that as the next generation of Internet applications and social forms, the meta universe is supported by six major technologies and has four major steps to build: digital twins, virtual primitives, virtual reality symbiosis, and virtual reality linkage. At present, there are very few companies that can catch up with Meta Universe technology, and China Mobile is one of them.
At present, most of the applications of the Yuan universe on the market are concentrated in specific industries, and they do not intersect with the lives of ordinary people. China Mobile, relying on its Migu platform, through sports, games and entertainment, supplemented by hot IP such as the Winter Olympics and the World Cup, has driven ordinary people into the meta universe era with its hundreds of millions of users, which is of great symbolic significance. China Mobile has introduced a new play method of "content+technology+integration and innovation" through the Migu series of landing applications of the Meta Universe, and the Meta Universe space has been rolled out in an all-round way and continuously iterated, leading the industry.
