“The continuous improvement of the digital base will be the foundation for the development of smart transportation.” Zhong Xiangping said, “Tencent has built the WeTrasnsport smart transportation solution based on the accumulation of technology in the transportation field. It hopes to use people, vehicles, roads, networks, and clouds. To build a dynamic data base for traffic, and build a traffic dynamic data base based on it. Based on the four stages of traffic construction, management, operation and service, we will build together with partners, and ultimately hope to form a data connection and efficient collaboration to form a traffic situation. The picture shows a network of traffic management to provide users with one-stop services.”
In the next 30 years, domestic smart high-speed construction will transform from the stage of large-scale investment and construction to the stage of high-quality management, operation and service. And digital technology capabilities will help achieve high-quality traffic operation services. Tencent will continue to use its technical capabilities, ecological capabilities and service capabilities to be a co-builder of smart transportation and help my country to upgrade from a “high-speed power” to a “high-speed power.”
The following is a record of Zhong Xiangping’s speech:
Dear leaders and distinguished guests, good afternoon everyone! I am very happy to be here for everyone to gather together and participate in a forum we are leading today. We also feel that there are many meaningful and valuable things in this direction, waiting for us to explore and advance together. Xi’an is China’s One of the four ancient civilizations and historical capitals, the cultural heritage is very rich, the economic development is accelerating, and we also feel that under the new development pattern of the “Belt and Road”, Xi’an is making every effort to become an international metropolis and the center of the country. In the city, where history, culture and modern development are blended, we also feel that digital technology makes this city shining.
Tencent has done a lot of cooperation with Xi’an early on. We have achieved results in technology research and development, cultural tourism, transportation and travel. In 2018, Tencent and the Xi’an municipal government also reached a comprehensive and in-depth cooperation. Tencent has always hoped to continuously apply its own digital technology to promote the physical industry and promote the implementation of the entire digital industry in cities, including in Xi’an. Last year, Tencent Cloud and Xi’an Aviation Base jointly built an aviation big data center. As of today, more than 2,000 companies have been on the cloud platform. We also promoted many public travel improvements in Xi’an very early. There are already more than 1,000 buses and 7 subway lines in Xi’an area, all of which have realized the code-based ride, bringing a very convenient travel experience for the citizens of Xi’an. At present, we have more than 10 million users who have launched Tencent’s ride code applet. Xi’an has a population of more than 12 million, which is still a very high proportion. They are all using Tencent’s public travel services. We also see the development of the entire transportation. As the main force of the new infrastructure, it is a very important foundation for the country’s economic development and people’s livelihood services. This is also a very important field for Tencent, so today I also want to take this opportunity to share Let us share some of Tencent’s little practices, thoughts and observations in the smart transportation industry. The constantly improving digital base is the foundation for the development of smart transportation. We see that with the continuous development of digital technology, every vehicle, every person, and every location will become a digital node in the transportation network. In the future intelligent transportation network system, every digital node can Well connected, there will be more room for development. In 2035, my country wants to become a cost-effective, green and economical, intelligent, advanced, modern, and high-quality national comprehensive three-dimensional transportation network. Under such target circumstances, what should each enterprise do? Tencent has been thinking about this problem all the time. Tencent believes that we can do our best to give play to our digital capabilities, so that every element in the communication network can form a digital connection and interconnection. We have formed a We Transport smart transportation solution in the entire transportation field. We hope to create a real-time update and self-purifying traffic dynamic digital base for the city through the dynamic connection of people, vehicles, roads, clouds, and the Internet. The brain of the cloud, on the constantly improving digital base, provides digital assistance for the construction, management, operation and service of traffic. These four stages. We are also co-constructing with some partners. We hope to finally achieve data connection and efficient collaboration, form a map of traffic situation and a network of traffic management, and provide users with one-stop service capabilities. Last year, we cooperated with the Transportation Bureau of Xi’an, and combined with Tencent’s technical capabilities in traffic location big data to provide optimization and assistance for urban public transportation in Xi’an, and to share the big data of our most real-time users. It also hopes to improve the efficiency of operation and management while improving the service experience of public travel. We use an open and collaborative ecology to accelerate the co-construction of smart transportation. The construction of smart transportation is a long-term, diversified, and highly complex ecological project. In the process of advancement, it requires the joint assistance of the government, enterprises, scientific research institutions, and the public. It requires a wide range of ecological cooperation as an industrial chain. Foundation. In the We Transport strategic framework of Tencent’s smart transportation, in addition to relying on Tencent’s own data, capabilities, and technical advantages, Tencent will also strive to become a co-builder, starting from the strategic layout of transportation, and opening up and more collaborative Concept, join hands with more partners in the industry chain, and jointly promote the intelligent upgrade of China’s transportation industry. This morning, Tencent Smart Transportation and China Academy of Information and Communications Technology signed a strategic cooperation agreement to continuously deepen diversified cooperation in the field of Internet of Vehicles and smart transportation. At the same time, we also released the product of Smart Internet Development and Evaluation Tool Chain. ZTE has launched more applications in the field of evaluation of intelligent network connection. Digital technical capabilities help Xi’an realize higher-quality traffic operation services. In the various fields covered by smart transportation, the construction of smart highways plays a very important role in society, economy, and people’s livelihood. China is developing into a high-speed power country. In the next 30 years, it will move from large-scale investment and construction to high-quality management and operation. The service stage is undergoing transformation and upgrading. At present, there have been some difficulties and challenges in the management and service of domestic expressways. For example, the cost of intelligent construction and maintenance is very high, the monitoring coverage has been incomplete, and the efficiency of management and service also has some difficulties. I have been thinking about how to use digital technology tools and Internet user service capabilities to help the management and operation of highways, reduce costs and increase efficiency, and improve the service quality of operations. In response to these difficulties and challenges in highway management and operation, today we rely on Tencent’s core technologies such as cloud computing, 5G, big data, digital twins, etc. to build a complete set of smart high-speed solutions. We are committed to achieving perceivable and computable Intelligent perception operations and service capabilities that can be made, accessible, and serviceable. Today I am very happy and honored to have the opportunity to discuss the development of smart transportation industry with all leaders and experts. We also very much hope to make use of Tencent’s technical capabilities in all aspects and explore more in-depth cooperation and cooperation with partners in the transportation industry. Co-construction helps the industry to develop smarter, expands the innovative application of technology, and brings better service experience to users. This is what Tencent has always insisted on. We also hope to join hands with everyone in the field of transportation to create Create higher service value
