"Wisdom" Makes the First City of Driving

  Take out your mobile phone, open the Baidu Maps app, call one-click to test the self-driving taxi, and then a red flag ApolloRobotaxi will send you to your destination. From April 19, 2020, Baidu Apollo self-driving taxis will be fully open to the public in Changsha, with an operating range of about 100 square kilometers. After 11 days, the first "Smart Bus Line 315" in China, led by Xiangjiang Smart, was opened to the public in Changsha.

  Why is Changsha the first city to open smart driving taxis and smart buses to consumers? As early as a few years ago, Changsha had a long-term vision and planned ahead. The then mayor of Changsha, Hu Henghua, the current standing member of the Hunan Provincial Party Committee and the secretary of the Changsha Municipal Party Committee, personally promoted, and personally set up a "building platform, building "Ecology, industry development, re-application" development policy.

  In 2016, Changsha planned to develop the artificial intelligence and intelligent networked automobile industry with the Xiangjiang New District as the core, and was awarded the National Intelligent Networked Vehicle (Changsha) Test Zone in November 2018, and opened the domestic intelligent transformation scope in 2019 The widest city, the most comprehensive type of road, and the strictest security protection of urban open roads.

  From closed site testing to urban open road driving, it is a breakthrough achieved by Changsha in the field of intelligent driving. Public information shows that since 2018, Changsha has negotiated and docked more than 70 key projects in the field of smart cars, including 8 of the world's top 500 companies and the introduction of 12 research institutes; a total of nearly 20 leading companies in the industry have signed contracts.

  In March 2020, Huawei's autonomous driving cloud service was put into use in various intelligent networked enterprises in Hunan's Xiangjiang New District, which can help automakers and developers develop autonomous driving applications and help commercialize autonomous driving. This means that the Changsha Intelligent Connected Vehicle Industry will spread on the cloud platform.

  Recently, Changsha launched the "torch plan" and "head sheep plan" to accelerate the integration of the intelligent networked automobile industry and smart cities. China's Intelligent Connected Automobile Industry started from Beijing to Shanghai and looked at Changsha. The dream of "the first city for intelligent driving" is becoming a reality.

"Intelligent" layout of new and old industries

  Changsha, which is known as the "Capital of Construction Machinery", has a 40% manufacturing sector in the economic landscape. As early as 2015, it established a top-level design agency, Changsha Intelligent Manufacturing Research Institute, and pressed the "acceleration key" for intelligent manufacturing. . In 2019, the "20 articles of high-quality development of Changsha's manufacturing industry" was reviewed and approved, which is the first to build the "National Intelligent Manufacturing Center" assembly number.

  The construction machinery represented by Zoomlion 4.0 Intelligent Boutique, Sany Heavy Industry Remote Excavator, Tiejian Heavy Industry Intelligent Drilling and Blasting Tunnel, etc. are constantly transforming and upgrading in self-awareness, autonomous decision-making and automatic control. Tens of thousands of enterprises "cloud" into the wave of smart manufacturing. Intelligentization, digitization, and informatization have made traditional industries in Changsha "change lanes and overtake" from "manufacturing" to "intelligent manufacturing."

  The high-level development of smart manufacturing has made the "intelligent manufacturing city" a new business card of Changsha, and has also promoted the deep integration of local informationization and industrialization, advanced manufacturing and high-tech service industries, and the cultivation of emerging industries to seize the commanding heights of industrial development.

  As a new generation of communication technology, 5G is a key technology to support the transformation of smart manufacturing. The emerging industries such as the Internet of Things, big data, artificial intelligence, etc. have an urgent need for 5G, making 5G a competitive high ground for a new round of technology and industrial revolution in the world. Changsha is also gaining momentum.

  On June 20, 2019, the Hunan Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology and the Provincial Communications Management Bureau jointly promulgated the "Three-year Action Plan for 5G Application Innovation Development in Hunan Province (2019-2021)", which proposed "three cities and two mountains" ( Changzhutan urban agglomeration and Yuelu Mountain National University Science and Technology City, Malanshan Video Cultural and Creative Industrial Park) are the leaders, focusing on the construction of a 5G application industry chain with Hunan characteristics, creating 5G application demonstration areas, popularization pioneer areas, and industrial agglomeration areas. In 2021, the scale of related industries exceeded 100 billion yuan, and Changsha was the leader.

  This year, Changsha sounded the horn of "Restarting the Software Industry", issued a three-year action plan to promote the development of the software and information technology service industry, and made clear policy support in terms of talent introduction, scenario application, and enterprise cultivation.

Optimal ecology promotes high-quality development

  In recent years, Changsha has regarded smart manufacturing as a "bull nose" for traction industry upgrading and economic transformation, and has made every effort to build a national smart manufacturing center. On the basis of making traditional superior industries bigger and stronger, it will give full play to the role of "two mountains" and actively promote The development of industries such as mobile Internet, intelligent connected cars, and "5G+video" has accelerated the pace of transformation and upgrading.

  This is inseparable from the nourishment of industrial ecology. In 2019, Changsha will strive to build an industrial ecology. We will focus on the “Year of Industrial Project Construction” and the “Year of Business Environment Optimization”. We will focus on the optimization of the business environment based on the problems encountered in the construction of industrial projects, and promote industrial projects through the optimization of the business environment. Investment, investment and construction.

  Through four special actions: speed-up of efficiency, cost reduction of the real economy, protection of entrepreneurs' rights and interests, and government services, Changsha City implemented a "corps war", and established a joint meeting system in which the secretary of the municipal party committee and the mayor personally led and the city's leadership joint assistance The industrial project construction mechanism establishes a system of scheduling, promotion, observation, and evaluation to create an industrial construction environment that is "friendly to entrepreneurs and very protective to investors."

  In order to attract engineers and innovative talents to settle in, Changsha took the initiative to lower the barriers to entry, focusing on the demand for talents from 22 advantageous industrial chains. In the past two years, it has issued nearly 1.2 billion yuan in talent awards and subsidies. The net inflow rate rankings are all in the top three.

  The three elements of environment, policy, and talent guarantee the creation of an optimal ecology. Industrial projects with large investment scales, high technological content, and strong driving ability are accelerating. Changsha is accelerating the construction of a high-end, high-quality, and high-tech modernization. Industrial system. Today, Changsha has reached 60 national-level scientific research platforms, and nearly 800 provincial-level scientific research platforms; there are more than 220 technology incubators and crowd-creating spaces in the city; there are more than 3,000 effective high-tech enterprises in the city, and the total output value of high-tech industries exceeds 10,000 100 million yuan.
