The scale continues to expand. A large number of new scenes are emerging. The entire system is taking shape
Racing new digital trade track
Use digital renminbi to buy a cup of coffee, board the VR snowmobile to experience the thrill of alpine skiing, and touch the screen 360-degree "cloud" to admire the cultural relics of the Forbidden City... At the 2021 Service Trade Fair that has just come to an end, "digitalization" is everywhere. The "digital sense" is coming, and the new formats, new applications and new trends of digital service trade have attracted the attention of the whole world.
Under the impact of the new crown epidemic, digital trade has shown strong resilience and vitality, and has become an important engine for the recovery of global trade and the high-quality development of my country's service trade.
According to the calculations of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the scale of my country's digitally delivered service trade reached US$294.76 billion in 2020. During the epidemic, it increased by 8.4% against the trend and accounted for 44.5% of the total service trade, compared with the beginning of the "13th Five-Year Plan" period. An increase of 13.9 percentage points.
The theme of this session of the Service Trade Fair is "Digital opens the future, service promotes development", and the digital service zone is set up for the first time.
What is digital trade?
What changes does digitalization bring to service trade?
In the future, what are the development trends of digital trade worth paying attention to?
The reporter walked into the Service Trade Fair to find the answer.
The Palace of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City "moved" to the service trade venue
Colorful "cloud" tour breaks the constraints of time and space
How is your physical activity?
You'll know it in two steps.
In the main venue of the Service Trade Fair in the National Convention Center, a long line was lined up next to a seemingly ordinary "walk".
This is a device called "Activity Detection All-in-one Machine". The tester does not need to wear any equipment, and only needs to walk 6 meters towards a 3D sensor to measure 6 categories that match the tester's age and gender. 36 Item evaluation value, giving the "comprehensive evaluation" score.
Aunt Shen from Chaoyang District, Beijing, is 58 years old. Under the guidance of the staff, Aunt Shen walked to the device, took out her mobile phone and scanned the QR code on the screen, and immediately received the "Exclusive Walking Report".
"My walking speed, stride length, and foot lift angle are all included in this report, including the twisting angle of my knee joints, and three suggestions for healthy walking are given."
The vendor exhibiting this equipment is NEC Information Systems (China) Co., Ltd., which has participated in the Service Trade Fair for five consecutive years.
"This device provides guidance on improving health conditions through the digitization of gait characteristics, and it has been promoted in some nursing homes and gyms." Wang Hui, the company’s planning manager, told reporters that digital transformation is already a rigid need in all walks of life. The “highlight” of their participation this time is digital services, including solutions to support digital transformation in the three major areas of health care, enterprises, and social infrastructure.
In addition to domestic and foreign companies and institutions exhibiting tradable digital service products at the Service Trade Fair, there is also an ingenious "digital beauty".
The golden ginkgo reflects the red wall, how beautiful is autumn in the Forbidden City?
Today there is Winter Olympics and Ice Sports. What are the people in "Ice Sports" doing?
If you want to know the answer, you don’t have to go to the Forbidden City.
The 600-year-old Forbidden City debuted at the Service Trade Fair in digital form for the first time.
Since the establishment of the Information Department of the Forbidden City in 1998, the digitalization of the Forbidden City has gone through more than 20 years.
With the integration of the Forbidden City and digital technology, palace buildings and treasure collections have turned gorgeously, and the 600-year-old Forbidden City has "rejuvenated".
In the "Cultural Inheritance · Digital Sharing" Digital Forbidden City Experience Zone, the three major sections of "Digital Cultural Relics", "Digital Archaeology" and "Digital Services" fully display the digital achievements of the Forbidden City.
The "Digital Forbidden City" applet can help tourists purchase tickets in advance, make reservations for exhibitions, and AI tour guides; the "Changyou Duobao Pavilion" applet "moves" 600 pieces of the Forbidden City cultural relics to the audience in the form of 3D interaction; "Panoramic Forbidden City" small program The program uses panoramic photography technology to shoot panoramic images of the Forbidden City to create an online Forbidden City.
"For example, when visiting the site, we can only stop outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but in the'Panorama Palace', we can walk into the palace and watch it up close." The booth staff told reporters.
"Cloud" travel can not only break the constraints of space, but also break through the time limit.
Digital archaeology uses VR technology to reproduce the archaeological site of the Forbidden City, which has been backfilled and protected, in front of the audience; put on AR glasses and walk a few steps forward, as if you are in the archaeological site.
According to a report issued by UNESCO, 104,000 museums around the world will be closed for an average of 155 days in 2020 due to the epidemic, and the number of visitors has dropped by an average of 70% compared with 2019.
Various museums have "touched the Internet and the cloud", presenting a feast of cloud culture to the public.
"The epidemic is the'catalyst' for the digital transformation of cultural and tourism services, and it has promoted the speed and pace of digital transformation. However, even if there is no epidemic, the'cloud' in museums is a general trend." said Yu Zhuang, deputy director of the Digital and Information Department of the Palace Museum .
The source is traceable and the data can be checked for fidelity
The trend of digital industrialization and industrial digitization is becoming more and more obvious
The world is entering a period of rapid development of the digital economy, and the trend of digital industrialization and industrial digitization has become increasingly obvious.
With the increase in computing power and the acceleration of transmission, digital trade, with data as the production factor, digital services as the core, and digital delivery as the characteristic, is becoming an important part of the digital economy and an important trend in the development of global trade.
At the Digital Trade Development Trend and Frontier Summit Forum of the Service and Trade Commission, Wang Bingnan, a member of the Party Leadership Group and Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Commerce, attributed this trend to two aspects: On the one hand, digital trade brings various fields through digital technology and digital services. Disruptive innovations have spawned a large number of new trade formats and models, and injected new impetus into global economic growth. On the other hand, digital trade strengthens the sharing of knowledge and technological elements among various industries through data flow, and promotes manufacturing and service industries. Close integration to drive the digital transformation of traditional industries.
Kaos COSMOPlat is a national-level dual cross-platform in the industrial Internet field incubated within Haier Group. This time, it will mainly exhibit 12 scenarios in several vertical industries such as chemical industry, energy, mold, intelligent control electronics, and intelligent equipment at the Service Trade Fair. plan.
In the Kaos COSMOPlat exhibition area, the reporter scanned the QR code on the packaging box of a bottle of Japanese sake. Important information related to cross-border food safety, such as the origin, production date, logistics information, and quarantine certificate, was presented.
"This is'Wan Su Cloud', with a cross-tracing function that covers the three codes of people, goods, and equipment. The source can be traced, whereabouts can be checked, and the data is fidelity. It uses the global industrial Internet identification analysis and blockchain. Technology-created cross-border cold chain traceability scenario solution.” Lin Shu, the person in charge of the Kaos COSMOPlat exhibition area, said that cold chain transportation is a key part of preventing the risk of epidemic input. The "Networking" model provides security solutions for the digital transformation of related enterprises in special periods.
The Industrial Internet is a representative of digital services empowering hundreds of industries.
With the continuous maturity and popularization of digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, 5G, and blockchain, work related to the transformation and empowerment of traditional industries, including trade in services, will continue to deepen.
The development of digital trade is inseparable from network security.
More and more devices are starting to "touch the cloud" to access the Internet, which also gives more "opportunities" for network security risks. There are precedents in the world in which key infrastructure such as oil pipelines have been hacked.
At the booth of the cybersecurity company Qi'anxin, a rapid alarm caught people's attention.
This is the relevant warning procedure for the staff after demonstrating the simulated attack on the oil extraction plant.
According to on-site technicians, the control logic of the equipment was tampered with by the attacker, and network probes deployed in advance at various key locations such as oil tanks, pressure gauges, pipelines, etc. can detect abnormal operation information in real time and report it to the industry as soon as possible. Safety monitoring system and alarms, so that safety personnel at all levels can notice the abnormal situation the first time and carry out emergency treatment.
In addition to being used in production equipment, this alarm system can also be used to ensure the safety of other critical infrastructures.
Exports bucked the trend and grew by 3.8%
Digital trade has become an important engine for the recovery of the global economy
In the field of cross-border e-commerce, a complete set of digital service trade system covering orders, marketing, contract performance, cross-border payment and settlement, and cross-border logistics is taking shape.
"In the next one to two years, my country's foreign trade import and export will continue to maintain high double-digit growth, and new digital foreign trade platforms such as cross-border e-commerce will enter a period of rapid development." Wei Jianguo, vice chairman of the Economic Exchange Center and former deputy minister of the Ministry of Commerce, said that cross-border e-commerce has promoted the digitalization of the industrial chain and supply chain. Small and medium-sized enterprises have completed digital iterations with the help of digital new foreign trade platforms to cope with the uncertainty of the global market. Factors and diversified needs to achieve high-quality development.
Cross-border e-commerce is just one of the manifestations of digital reshaping of trade patterns.
Digital trade has accelerated the integration and optimization of global innovation chains, industrial chains, and value chains. All walks of life are looking for the next growth point in their business through digital transformation and innovation and creating a new industry pattern.
Digital trade has become an important engine for the recovery of the global economy.
In 2020, global digital trade exports bucked the trend and increased by 3.8%, and their share in service trade further rose to 62.8%, contributing as much as 98.3% to the growth of service exports.
According to estimates by the World Trade Organization, by 2030, digital technology will promote an annual growth of 1.8 to 2 percentage points in global trade.
In this new track of international competition, China has been among the forefront.
The "2021 Global Digital Trade and China Development Report" shows that with the accelerated innovation of digital technologies such as the Internet, big data, and cloud computing, China's position as a major digital trade country is gradually consolidating, with exports ranking eighth in the world and imports ranking second in the world. Seventh, the digital trade index ranks ninth in the world, and is the only developing economy that has entered the top ten global digital trade development.
The "Fourteenth Five-Year" Service Trade Development Plan has been basically completed, and the "digital trade" is included in my country's service trade development plan for the first time.
The "China Digital Trade Development Report 2020" report released by the Ministry of Commerce predicts that my country's digital trade scale will continue to expand during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period. The proportion reaches about 50%.
The emergence of new scenes of digital trade has also put forward urgent requirements for new rules of digital trade.
At the cutting-edge summit forum on the development trend of digital trade, Wang Dongtang, deputy director of the Department of Trade and Services of the Ministry of Commerce, mentioned that during the 13th Five-Year Plan period, my country’s digital trade has made significant progress while still facing many constraints, including the opening of the digital service sector. The degree needs to be improved, and the relevant laws and regulations cannot yet fully meet the needs of the development of digital trade.
"Looking at the world, major powers are introducing national strategies for digital trade, and improving domestic legislation and other digital trade rules has become a new area of international competition. However, the global digital governance system has not yet been formed, which will exacerbate the digital divide and digital trade imbalances, and affect global inclusiveness. Growth." Wang Dongtang said.
At present, my country has promulgated a series of important regulations and policy documents such as the Cyber Security Law, the Data Security Law, and the State Council’s Approval to Comprehensively Deepen the Pilot Program of Innovative Development of Trade in Services, etc., and have initially formed laws to support and promote the development of digital trade. Policy system framework.
During the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, my country will gradually improve the digital trade rules and systems, promote the institutional opening of rules, regulations, management, and standards, and actively participate in the formulation of international rules and technical standards such as data security, digital currency, and digital tax, and serve as a global digital Trade development contributes Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions.
Digital trade is an important product of a new round of technological revolution and industrial revolution. Vigorously developing new digital trade is a strategic opportunity to win the initiative in digital competition in the future.
Han Xia, chief engineer of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, stated at the Service Trade Conference that the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is vigorously promoting the high-quality development of China's digital economy and digital trade, including strengthening key core technology research, consolidating digital infrastructure, and actively guiding enterprises Digital transformation and active integration into the construction of a global digital governance system.
