Li Wenhai, deputy mayor of Tianjin, said in his speech at the "Keynote Speech" session that Tianjin has formed new advantages of its own in developing new productive forces and strengthening and improving the digital economy.
Digitalization empowers industrial transformation and is an important manifestation of new productivity. Li Wenhai believes that the transformation of digitally empowered industries has accelerated across the board, showing the following five characteristics: first, computing power has become the underlying support for promoting the digital development of industries; second, digital technology has become an important engine driving the digital development of industries; third, data elements have become the driving force for industries. Strategic resources for digital development. Fourth, manufacturing has become the main battlefield for industrial digital transformation. Fifth, digital governance has become a new challenge in promoting industrial digital transformation and development.
Based on the above characteristics, Li Wenhai introduced the relevant situation that Tianjin is making every effort to create new advantages in the digital economy. In recent years, Tianjin has promoted digital development in all aspects, accelerated the construction of a modern industrial system through industrial digitization, and empowered high-quality development of various industries through digital industrialization. Tianjin has formed its own new advantages in developing new productive forces and strengthening and improving the digital economy.
First, digital infrastructure construction has been accelerated and upgraded. Tianjin was the first to build a dual gigabit network, with a total of 73,000 5G base stations built. It has the National Supercomputing Tianjin Center, where leading companies such as Sugon have settled, and a number of new computing power foundations such as the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Big Data Intelligent Computing Center have been built. facility.
Second, the digital industry is booming. We are the first in the country to build a complete industrial chain covering chips, operating systems, databases, complete computers, servers, supercomputers and other industries. The added value of the core industries of the digital economy has accounted for 7.2% of GDP, and the development of the digital economy ranks first in the country. .
Third, the scientific and technological innovation capabilities have been continuously enhanced, and the technological innovation capabilities of key products have been significantly improved. A number of key new products, including the world's first dedicated brain-computer interface chip "Brain Whisperer" and Haiguang DCU Deep Compute No. 2, have been successfully developed and have reached international advanced levels. High standards and high starting points promote the construction of Tiankai Higher Education Science and Innovation Park, explore the innovative development model of "discipline + talent + industry", promote the integration of industry and education, science and education, and form an important "four-in-one" platform of education, technology, talents, and industry carrier.
Fourth, the release of data value is accelerating. It was the first in the country to issue regulations to promote the development and application of big data, and was the first to establish the Northern Big Data Trading Center, attracting the continuous gathering of data service providers. The country's first free trade pilot zone data classification standards and specifications were released to provide guidance for the free trade pilot zone to carry out data classification and classification, fill in the gaps in the system in this field, and lay a solid foundation for the cross-border flow of data.
Fifth, digital empowerment has achieved outstanding results. The number of industrial cloud companies in the city has exceeded 10,000, and more than 300 lighthouse factories, smart factories and digital workshops have been built. The city’s “integration of informatization and industrialization” index ranks among the top in the country, promoting the new generation of information technology and agriculture. , the service industry has been deeply integrated, giving birth to a number of new business formats and new models.
Sixth, digital transformation has huge potential. Relying on its industrial foundation, location and other advantages, Tianjin has actively integrated into the global industrial chain of the digital economy. International cooperation and exchanges in the digital field have become increasingly active, providing a broad space for digital transformation.
