For the first time, clarify the three aspects of "new infrastructure"
Wu Hao, director of the Innovation and High-Tech Development Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said on the 20th that preliminary research believes that new infrastructure is guided by new development concepts, driven by technological innovation, and based on information networks. Infrastructure systems for services such as digital transformation, intelligent upgrades, and integrated innovation.
At present, the new infrastructure mainly includes three aspects:
One is information infrastructure. Mainly refers to the infrastructure generated based on the evolution of a new generation of information technology, such as the communication network infrastructure represented by 5G, the Internet of Things, the Industrial Internet, and the satellite Internet. Technical infrastructure, such as computing power infrastructure represented by data centers and intelligent computing centers.
The second is the integration of infrastructure. Mainly refers to the in-depth application of Internet, big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies to support the transformation and upgrading of traditional infrastructure, and then form a converged infrastructure, such as intelligent transportation infrastructure, smart energy infrastructure, etc.
The third is innovative infrastructure. Mainly refers to the infrastructure with public welfare attributes supporting scientific research, technology development, and product development, such as major scientific and technological infrastructure, science and education infrastructure, industrial technology innovation infrastructure, etc.
"Of course, with the technological revolution and industrial transformation, the connotation and extension of the new infrastructure is not static, we will continue to follow up and study." Wu Hao said.

Will promote "new infrastructure" from four aspects
According to reports, the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will work with relevant departments to deepen research, strengthen overall planning, and improve the system, focusing on four aspects of work-
One is to strengthen the top-level design. Study and issue relevant guidance to promote the development of new infrastructure.
The second is to optimize the policy environment. Focusing on improving the long-term supply quality and efficiency of new infrastructure, we will revise and improve the access rules that are conducive to the sustainable and healthy development of emerging industries.
The third is to do a good job in project construction. Accelerate the deployment of 5G networks , promote the optimization and upgrading of optical fiber broadband networks, and accelerate the construction of a national integrated big data center. Steadily promote the "digital +" and "smart +" upgrades of traditional infrastructure. At the same time, innovative infrastructure is deployed ahead of schedule.
The fourth is to do a good job of overall coordination. Strengthen departmental collaboration and accelerate industrial maturity and facilities improvement through pilot demonstrations and compliance guidelines. Promote government-enterprise collaboration, stimulate the investment enthusiasm of various entities, and promote the mutual promotion of technological innovation, deployment and construction, and integration and application.

Private capital actively deploys "new infrastructure"
The Politburo meeting of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on April 17 made it clear that strengthening traditional infrastructure and new infrastructure investment, promoting the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries, and expanding investment in strategic emerging industries.
Observation shows that at present, various regions are actively promoting the expansion of effective investment, and new infrastructure construction projects such as data centers, 5G and artificial intelligence have also become the highlights of leading a new round of investment.
Recently, Hubei announced "Several Opinions on Accelerating the Construction of Major Projects and Focusing on Expansion of Effective Investment", focusing on new infrastructure, planning a number of 5G mobile broadband, big data centers, artificial intelligence supercomputing centers, industrial Internet, Internet of Things And other projects.
Zhang Lei, the founder and CEO of Gao Leng Capital, said recently that the biggest investment opportunity is now in China, and now it is the best opportunity to reposition China.
Private capital has also shown enthusiasm for "new infrastructure". On April 20, Alibaba Cloud announced that it will invest another 200 billion yuan in the next three years for the research and development of major core technologies such as cloud operating systems, servers, chips, and networks and the construction of future-oriented data centers.
