China News Service, Hefei, February 26 (Reporter Zhao Qiang) Recently, the "East Number and West Calculation" project was officially launched, and the "Wuhu Cluster" was included in the 10 national data center clusters.
On the 26th, the 41st breakfast meeting was held in Wuhu City, Anhui Province, and six entrepreneurs were invited to discuss the development plan of "East and West".
It is understood that in March last year, Wuhu City innovated the government-enterprise communication mechanism and launched a weekly "Chat Breakfast Meeting" hosted by the main person in charge of the Municipal Party Committee. Every week, entrepreneurs and representatives of various industries were invited to participate in specific themes or industry categories. .
The purpose of the "Breakfast Meeting" is to open the door to ask about policies, unblock channels, attract investment through business, and strive to build a new type of 'pro' and 'clean' relationship between government and business.
Shan Xiangqian, Secretary of the Wuhu Municipal Party Committee, said that in recent years, the city has continuously introduced relevant plans and policies, built a series of platform carriers for digital innovation and development, focused on cutting-edge fields such as industrial Internet, blockchain, and 5G, and implemented a number of key projects. It has a solid foundation for being entrusted with the important task of the country's "East Number and West Calculation".
It is hoped that all enterprises and Wuhu will jointly seize the important opportunity of "East and West Calculation", jointly promote the construction of the national hub node "Wuhu Cluster" of the national integrated computing power network, and make every effort to build a storage and computing supply center in the Yangtze River Delta region.
All 6 entrepreneurs said that they will make full use of the favorable policies of "East Number and West Calculation" to speed up the layout and construction of key projects in Wuhu, improve the quality and efficiency of computing power, and make greater contributions to the high-quality development of the "Wuhu Cluster".
When it comes to "counting in the east and counting in the west", why did you settle in Wuhu?
The person in charge of China Telecom Wuhu Branch told reporters that Wuhu has four advantages in location, industry, business environment, computing power and network foundation.
Among them, in terms of computing power and network infrastructure, China Telecom Group, in the national cloud computing planning and layout, took Wuhu as one of China Telecom's 31 cloud resource backbone nodes as early as 2017, and planned to build a group-level cloud computing center.
The first phase of the cloud computing center has been fully completed, and the second phase is under construction, with a total investment of about 2.5 billion yuan.
According to reports, the "14th Five-Year Plan for Wuhu City's Digital Wuhu Construction Plan" clearly states that the Wuhu cluster should be built into an important channel connecting Chengdu-Chongqing nodes and the country's "East Digital and Western Computing", and to build a storage and computing supply center in the Yangtze River Delta region.
