　　In today's era, digital technology, as a leading force in the world's technological revolution and industrial transformation, is increasingly integrated into the entire process of economic and social development in all fields.

At the 5th China International Import Expo being held, the surging kinetic energy of the development of digital technology is displayed everywhere.

　　Promoting industrial digitization is becoming the only way to lead the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries. Especially in the context of the continued impact of the global epidemic and weak economic growth, digital technology is helping China to shape new advantages in development, while also forcing countries to strengthen cooperation and integrate more deeply into the world. Industrial chain, supply chain, value chain.

　　At the 2022 Overseas Chinese and Digital Economy sub-forum of "Overseas Chinese Connecting Five Continents Shanghai Shanghai Import Expo" held during this year's CIIE, many overseas Chinese entrepreneurs discussed the path of digital transformation together.

　　How to create new demand in response to the challenges facing the global economy?

Shi An, Vice President of Shanghai Overseas Economic and Technological Promotion Association and President of Rockwell Automation (China) Co., Ltd., said: "The new demand is the blue ocean market, which needs to be leveraged through innovation, and a systematic project to accelerate innovation and iteration is required. Therefore, we continue to advocate digital transformation empowerment in the industry."

　　SMEs are the “main force” of digital transformation.

Pei Yuanhu, chairman and general manager of Shanghai Fuji Medical Equipment Co., Ltd., believes that digital transformation can help physical enterprises to speed up research and development and production, and can also greatly reduce costs and improve quality.

　　In Pei Yuanhu's view, the key point of digital transformation is how to integrate talents, scientific research direction and required products together.

"'Pearls' are worthless, the most important thing is how to string them into a 'necklace', and how to string a 'necklace' is the most critical point of digital transformation."

　　Yu Lin, vice president of Dürr Coating System Engineering (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., believes that digitalization is an irreversible process, and it is the means and method that determines the survival and competitiveness of a company.

Digitalization is not simply adopting technology, but an organic combination of organization, culture, strategy, technology, and overall leadership, and planning.

　　"Digital transformation is actually a catalyst." Pei Yuanhu believes that companies can establish a digital management model, so that talents can continuously communicate in this model and achieve unified values ​​in the exchange.

　　Zhang Rong, chief operating officer of Shanghai Xijing Information Technology Co., Ltd., mentioned that digitalization is a very complex systematic project, which requires the support of a large number of compound talents. Only with the support of talents can it truly help the implementation of digitalization.

　　Chen Yuan, chief digital officer of Tyson (Shanghai) Enterprise Management Co., Ltd., said that digitization has two missions. One is to find the shortcomings, pain points and blocking points of enterprises, and to open up, link and optimize them; the other is to cultivate digital genes through digital technology. , so as to discover the "second curve" of business growth.

　　With the deepening of digital transformation, how to promote the innovation and development of global supply chain and centralized procurement?

Gu Xianzhi, deputy general manager of Shanghai Baohua International Tendering Co., Ltd., said that in the field of bulk commodities, companies can build a safe, agile and resilient supply chain through platformization, sharing, and data mining.

　　Taking data mining as an example, Gu Xianzhi said that through data mining, value-added, and flow, data can be connected to the process system of "purchasing-warehousing-logistics-financial", so that each process can fully add value, so that this data is no longer isolated. , scattered, but become an orderly, value-added, and valuable source of core competitiveness that can fully guide each point. In the supply chain system, digitization has become one of the core parts, and has become an effective platform for operation. the "engine".

　　In terms of platformization, Pu Fuchun, deputy director of the Strategic Planning Department of Sichuan Port Investment and Chuannan Port Operation (Group) Co., Ltd., said that building a digital platform can directly serve market players, better understand customer needs, and provide better service solutions.

At the same time, the digital platform can optimize and integrate platform resources, realize the sharing of internal and external resources, and promote the transformation and upgrading of the industry and the green and low-carbon development.

　　How does digitalization predict the core industry chain?

Chen Liya, founder and general manager of Huashang Optoelectronics Technology Industry Research Institute, said that digital and refined management can improve the efficiency of production and operation within the enterprise, improve the level of yield control, and thus improve the profitability of the enterprise; a comparison can be established outside the supply chain. Transparent and relatively referenced platforms, such as inventory reference platforms, inventory monitoring platforms, and production capacity monitoring platforms, help enterprises achieve the goal of sustainable operation.
