After the second plenary meeting of the Fourth Session of the 13th National People's Congress, the second "Ministerial Channel" interview event was held, and some of the leaders of relevant ministries and commissions of the State Council who attended the meeting were invited to accept interviews via online video.

  Cover story Huaxi Metropolis Daily reporter: The Industrial Internet is connected to traditional industries at one end and new technologies at the other. It has become a powerful support for the digital transformation of manufacturing.

Minister Xiao, how do you generally evaluate the current development of my country's industrial Internet?

What are the next steps to advance?

Thank you.

  Xiao Yaqing, Minister of Industry and Information Technology: Thank you for your question.

It should be said that the Industrial Internet has started very well in the past three years of development.

As you said just now, the Industrial Internet connects a single device, a single process, and a single enterprise together. It enables us to integrate the man-machine, material, and other links, and enables our enterprise to integrate resources such as production, technology, and human resources. , And even marketing, sales, front-end design, etc. are all connected.

We have also seen that for a single enterprise, it has a great effect, and after the various enterprises are linked together, they form a fusion and form a pool of resources.

Therefore, the next step in the development of the Industrial Internet:

  Xiao Yaqing: First, we must lay a solid foundation.

On the original basis, the foundation for the development of the Industrial Internet will be laid in the next few years.

We feel that the development of the Industrial Internet in the next few years will still be a very critical period.

  Xiao Yaqing: Second, we must work hard on integration.

It is to ensure that in the development process of the Industrial Internet, various industries, enterprises, and all levels are integrated, and more innovative applications are generated through the Industrial Internet, so that it can help and promote economic development.

  Xiao Yaqing: Third, during the development of the Industrial Internet, we must balance development and security.

With the development of the Industrial Internet, everyone is also concerned about security issues and the protection of intellectual property rights.

We unswervingly grasp development on the one hand, and unswervingly ensure safety and protect intellectual property rights on the other, combine the two to promote the healthy and orderly development of the Industrial Internet.

The future prospects for the development of the Industrial Internet are very good. We now have many application scenarios, which have been shown in various places.

  Xiao Yaqing: In the next step, with the development of "5G+Industrial Internet", more practical application scenarios will be produced. These developments will show you more good applications, in order to meet the people’s growing needs for a better life, and also for our economy. Development provides more carriers, platforms and space for integration.

Thank you.
