(100 great changes) Chinese industry equipped with intelligent ‘nerve center'

Railways to plateaus, dams on rivers, highways crisscrossing the country and ports connecting oceans... The progress of China's industry has laid a solid foundation for the Chinese path to modernization, and the new industrialization has injected vigorous power into the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Since the 18th CPC National Congress, the requirements of new industrialization have not only fostered a complete Chinese industrial system, but also equipped the system with an intelligent "nerve center." Digital technologies such as big data, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence enable Chinese industry to achieve end-to-end digital transformation.

Quality is the lifeline for manufacturing. Defects on a roll of fiber on the assembly line used to be spotted by the human eye with the help of a flashlight. It is now identified by Visual AI at the textile factory. It only takes the AI two seconds to inspect a silk ingot, improving the efficiency of quality inspection by 70 percent.

Collaboration has greatly increased the industrial productivity. The digital brain of a domestic car manufacturer allows more than 20,000 R%26D and design personnel around the globe to work together in different time, space and locations, and allows more than 1,000 parts suppliers to collaborate production and manufacturing. "Artificial intelligence plus industrial Internet" is pressing ahead toward the core of intelligent manufacturing, seeking to realize the leap from smart factory to future factory and even to "factory metaverse."

Power supply is the lifeblood of industry. One kilowatt-hour of electricity in border area, after the inspection of intelligent drones, lights up the safe production line of factories. With the uninterrupted operation of "intelligent brain," the power generated by wind turbines provides clean and low-carbon green energy for industrial enterprises.

Thousands of industries, large and small enterprises construct an ever-changing picture of digital China. The strategy of integrating cloud computing and AI into the industry has deeply integrated the digital economy and real economy, which has injected new dynamics into China's economic development. It will drive us towards the goal of realizing new industrialization and becoming a manufacturing power.
