On December 19, the 2023 Communication Industry Conference and the 18th Annual Conference on Communication Technology were held in Beijing, and Zhao Ce, Deputy Director of the Information and Communication Development Department of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said in his speech that China's economy is currently in a critical period of transforming the mode of development, optimizing the economic structure, and transforming the growth momentum.
Zhao Ce said that the general secretary pointed out that it is necessary to speed up the construction of information infrastructure and promote the integrated development of the digital economy and the real economy. At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is accelerating, the global industrial structure and layout are being profoundly adjusted, and the new generation of strategic emerging industries such as mobile communications and artificial intelligence are deeply integrated with various fields, which have become an important driving force for high-quality economic development. The just-concluded ** economic work conference proposed to promote industrial innovation with scientific and technological innovation, especially to promote new industries, new models and new kinetic energy with disruptive technologies and cutting-edge technologies, and develop new quality productivity.
In recent years, with the joint efforts of all parties, China's information and communication industry has achieved positive results. In terms of infrastructure, the world's largest network infrastructure has been built, with a total of 321 5G base stations as of the end of October50,000, 5G mobile** users reached 75.4 billion. At the same time, China's computing infrastructure construction has made positive progress, and by the end of 2022, the total scale of computing power has reached 180eflops, ranking second in the world. In terms of technological innovation, China's mobile communication technology has achieved leapfrog development from "4G synchronization" to "5G leading", and has launched various tasks such as 6G vision demand and technical reserves, and the technological innovation ability has been significantly improved, and the number of 5G standard essential patent declarations accounts for 42% of the world. In terms of industrial construction, China has continuously consolidated and enhanced the international leading position of advantageous industries, continued to strengthen the construction of the whole industrial chain in the field of information and communication, and established a complete industrial chain covering systems, terminals, chips and other links in the field of 5G. In terms of integrated applications, China's 5G applications have been widely integrated into 67 of the 97 major categories of the national economy, and the role of 5G in empowering value and intelligence has been continuously demonstrated.
Zhao Ce put forward three thoughts on further improving the technology research and development capabilities in key areas of information and communication, building advanced and reliable new infrastructure, fully unleashing potential, and promoting high-quality economic development
The first is to accelerate the construction of new information infrastructure and consolidate the new foundation for the development of the digital economy. We will continue to deepen 5G network coverage, promote the construction of gigabit optical networks, promote the co-construction and sharing of 5G networks, and improve the breadth and depth of dual-gigabit network coverage. Efforts will be made to optimize the construction and layout of computing infrastructure, increase the supply of high-performance intelligent computing, enhance the reliability of computing power networks, and improve the level of efficient and intensive utilization.
The second is to focus on improving industrial innovation capabilities and achieving high-level self-reliance and self-reliance. We will continue to improve the manufacturing advantages of 5G, optical communications and other complete machine equipment, accelerate the shortcomings and weaknesses in the fields of core chips, key devices, and instrumentation, and further improve the resilience and supply capacity of the industrial chain. Closely track and accurately grasp the development trend of information and communication technology innovation, and lay out innovative technologies such as communication and perception integration and quantum information. Promote the research and development of 5G enhanced technologies, and actively participate in the formulation of international standards such as 5G R18 and R19.
The third is to fully condense the consensus of industry development and cultivate a good industrial ecological environment. Adhere to the demand-oriented, give full play to the scale, market and resource advantages of telecom operators, give full play to the main role of innovation of various large and medium-sized enterprises and the innovation ability of scientific research institutes and colleges and universities, and form a strong synergy of production, education, research and application. Focus on the needs of the digital economy, accelerate the enrichment of application scenarios of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data and other technologies, and accelerate the emergence of innovative achievements in inclusive supply and diversified business formats.
As the annual vane activity of the communication industry and the New Year's Eve Reflection Meeting, the 2023 Communication Industry Conference and the 18th Annual Conference of Communication Technology, hosted by the "Communication Industry News", with the theme of "Capability Reconstruction and Business Innovation in the AI Era", gathers the forces of all walks of life in "government, industry, academia, research and application", analyzes the current and forward-looking trends, focuses on hot spots and focuses on the focus, faces industry innovation and enterprise opportunities under the great changes, and shares the wisdom of industry experts and business leaders. Provide decision-making support and business judgment for the development of industry enterprises.
