(Economic Observation) Shanghai "Online New Economy": "Cloud Office" arrives ahead of time, "New Infrastructure" helps it go further
China News Service, Shanghai, April 27 (Zheng Yingying) "The epidemic has brought about the" online office era "that may have come with the popularization of 5G." Qian Min, head of the Tencent Cloud Office Collaboration Product Center, was interviewed by reporters at the moment. The "cloud office" trend makes the above judgment.
Affected by the new Coronary Pneumonia epidemic, some companies in China encourage employees to "work from home to work in the cloud" after resuming production. This move not only maintains the normal operation of the work, but also reduces the risk of epidemic transmission caused by centralized office work. In mid-February, at the beginning of the resumption of production, when the resumption rate of Shanghai's software and information service companies reached more than 80%, home office employees accounted for about 70%.
The “Shanghai Action Plan for Promoting Online New Economic Development (2020-2022)” recently issued by the General Office of the Shanghai Municipal Government pointed out that it is necessary to develop a new model of remote office, accelerate the application of 5G technology, improve the efficiency of remote office, and promote the solidification of remote office habits. Enhance user stickiness.
The Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology pointed out that in the short term, due to the epidemic, online office just needs to show up, and remote office has changed from "optional" to "required"; in the long term, remote office has the advantages of reducing office costs and flexibility The advantages of enterprise management may become "preferred" in many industries, especially in the Internet and media industries.
Many companies also take advantage of the trend to provide "cloud office" services. Since the outbreak, the business volume of China Mobile's remote office product "cloud video" client has grown rapidly; from a national perspective, from January 26 to April 7, 12.002 million cloud video clients were opened, which is higher than before Approximately 4 times increase; nearly 30,000 high-definition venues were opened, an increase of 25% compared with before the outbreak; the cumulative use of conferences was 29.42 billion minutes, an increase of 25 times compared with before the outbreak.
During the epidemic, the Tencent Conference opened 300 people's unlimited meeting function to Chinese users for free. Within two months after its birth in December 2019, the number of daily active accounts exceeded 10 million. In addition, the international version of Tencent Meeting VooV Meeting has also been launched worldwide.
However, some analysts pointed out that in China's remote office practice, there are still problems such as message delays and video freezes; the management of information and data security policies for remote office also needs to be strengthened; remote office has not yet fully realized the daily business of the enterprise, including with customers Business cooperation and exchange, contract signing, etc.
In addition, after the epidemic, the willingness and demand for remote office of traditional enterprises with low informatization level no longer increase, and the related companies may experience a short-term market decline. In this regard, how does "remote office" seek "prospects"?
Experts from the Shanghai Municipal Commission of Economy and Information Technology suggested that the development of key technologies for "new infrastructure" should be accelerated, new infrastructures such as 5G commercial, Internet of Things, and big data centers should be improved, popularized, and improved, and more cutting-edge technologies should be encouraged The research and development, innovation and iteration of the underlying algorithm of online office software promotes remote office in all scenarios; in addition, enterprises supporting remote office system solutions should be encouraged to further improve the security of office software information and data.
