Recently, the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Economy and Information Technology publicly solicited opinions on the "Beijing Digital Economy Whole Industry Chain Opening Action Plan (Draft for Comment)". The plan proposes 6 aspects and 22 reform measures, covering improving the supply capacity of digital technology, focusing on the high-level development of the industrial chain, gathering and integrating various scientific and technological resources, concentrating on breaking through key core technologies in the fields of high-end chips, artificial intelligence, key software, blockchain, etc., and laying out 6G, future networks, brain-like intelligence, quantum computing and other frontier fields of future science and technology in advance, and striving to achieve a number of major original innovations and subversive results.
Since 2017, the "digital economy" has been written into the government work report for the first time. Subsequent government work reports and related documents have also been mentioned many times to encourage, support and develop the digital economy. Nowadays, whether it is gathering in the "cloud" for the New Year, visiting the New Year through video, or watching the Winter Olympic games from multiple angles through 5G mobile phones, cheering for Olympic athletes "immersively", or the media and representatives and members "seeing the screen like a face" during the two sessions of the National People's Congress... The convenience of the digital economy is even more ubiquitous.
The Beijing Winter Olympics and the Two Sessions of the National People's Congress have shown the responsibility of central enterprises
Technology has changed lives, and the emergence and development of the Internet has brought earth-shaking changes to people's lives. As one of the first "three gigabit" cities in China, Beijing's citizens have a deeper understanding of the changes brought about by digital life under the gigabit network.
During the 2022 Winter Olympics and Paralympic Winter Games, according to the requirements of epidemic prevention and control, many citizens watched the games through TELEVISION instead of coming to the scene to cheer for the athletes, which was somewhat regrettable.
According to the relevant person in charge of Beijing Unicom, as a partner of the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics, in order to optimize the viewing experience, Beijing Unicom has built a smart all-optical network to provide a high-quality connection experience for the competition venues in the three divisions of the Beijing Winter Olympics and the main media center of the Winter Olympics, providing a solid guarantee for 4K/8K ultra-high-definition live broadcasting.
In addition, the author also learned that Unicom 5G makes 360° free viewing technology possible from imagination, providing a wealth of viewing content for off-site audiences, and also making up for the single viewing experience caused by the location limitations of the audience in the stadium, allowing the audience to achieve true "freedom of perspective".
In addition to fully guaranteeing the Winter Olympics, with excellent communication technology and multi-scenario application, the Beijing Winter Olympics will achieve "world firsts" and "historical breakthroughs" in many fields such as "hosting games, watching games and participating in competitions", which has won praise from all parties, and Beijing Unicom has won wide praise from the participating media, superior leaders, representatives and members during the two sessions of the National People's Congress this year.
The honor was achieved thanks to the launch of the new strategy
Beijing Unicom's outstanding performance at the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games and the National Two Sessions not only polished the golden signboard of "national chief, government first choice, and people's first trust", but also a perfect interpretation of its new positioning of "digital information infrastructure operation and service national team, network power digital China's main force in the construction of smart society, and digital technology integration and innovation vanguard".
The author understands that the new positioning of China Unicom was proposed at the 2021 China Unicom Partner Conference held in December last year. At that conference, China Unicom also upgraded its company strategy to "strong foundation, integrity innovation, integration and openness", and focused on the five main businesses of "big connection, big computing, big data, big application and big security", and comprehensively exerted efforts on the main channel of digital economy.
In the monthly voluntary disclosure announcement released in March this year, the author also noted that compared with the past, the content of this disclosure contains many aspects of business development such as "ubiquitous smart connection", "innovative application", "smart service" and "scientific and technological innovation", compared with the past mobile, fixed-line broadband, local telephone user scale, and the net increase in the number of months, the wide range of dimensions and content of this disclosure is really rare.
For example, in terms of "ubiquitous smart connection", China Unicom's disclosure indicators have been transformed and upgraded from the traditional "mobile, fixed-line broadband, and local telephone users" to "big connection" users, which is the company's implementation of the strategic deployment of "network power, digital China, and smart society", strengthening the high-speed ubiquitous basic connection, doing excellent security and agile intelligent connection, and doing deep intelligent and scenario-based "chemical" connection, achieving a new leap from "basic connection" to "intelligent connection of all things".
For example, in terms of "innovative applications", China Unicom newly disclosed the "number of virtual private network service customers in the 5G industry". As an important indicator of the government department's "5G Application "Sail" Action Plan (2021-2023)" the number of virtual private networks in the 5G industry, the number of virtual private networks in the 5G industry has become a new engine for vertical industries to promote 5G innovative applications, expand production efficiency, and accelerate digital transformation.
Better tools make good work
Telecompaper's latest "Working from Home" report shows that most home workers use WiFi to connect to the internet, and a significant portion of them have purchased extenders or additional routers to improve their home networks, According to Telecompaper reported on April 11. But home workers who use wired internet have higher satisfaction with their connections. The study also found that younger employees tend to be less satisfied with the quality of their internet connections and video calls, possibly because they also spend more time in online meetings than older employees.
In modern society, people's lives are gradually intelligent and digital, convenient and efficient is only the basic requirements for people's lives, and people's requirements for high-speed, intelligent, high-quality and safe digital life are getting higher and higher.
The convenience brought by digital life is inseparable from the support of technology. In order to let the people of the capital better feel the convenience of the gigabit network, as early as 2016, Beijing Unicom took the lead in completing the broadband "optical reform" to build an all-optical network, laying a good foundation for the upgrading of gigabit broadband. In 2019, Beijing Unicom adopted 10GPON symmetrical technology to complete the overall layout of gigabit networks. At present, the regional coverage rate of Beijing Unicom equipment has reached 100%, and it has the ability to fully access high-quality gigabit networks.
The data shows that in the market share of residential broadband in Beijing, Unicom broadband accounts for about 60%, which means that nearly 6 out of every 10 broadband households choose Unicom broadband.
The author understands that in order to help users break the rate bottleneck caused by the network cable and physical port under the traditional networking method, so that users can truly experience the gigabit rate, Beijing Unicom not only insists on sending "dual-band WiFi6 optical cat" when users handle Unicom Gigabit services, but also provides FTTR (optical fiber laying to remote nodes) a gigabit companion product called "Whole House Optical Broadband". Measured results show that after the user installs Beijing Unicom FTTR Gigabit, the network speed of the whole house fiber WiFi6 in the living room, bedroom, balcony and bathroom is relatively stable, and the download speed reaches more than 800Mbps, basically no loss. At present, 77 business halls of Beijing Unicom have deployed FTTR environments for citizens to experience and purchase. During the "May Day" period, Beijing Unicom carried out the "Tribute to Labor, Preferred Unicom" activity, there are exclusive offers customized for Gigabit products, so that Beijing citizens can learn online and work online.
In addition to building a gigabit smart home environment, Beijing Unicom has also launched matching "Unicom Smart Home" devices and applications for the citizens of the capital, including Unicom Smart Landline, Unicom Kanjia, and Unicom Super Clear. Among them, smart landline is a new intelligent call mode that combines landline and smart speaker. With a stable and high-speed network, it can not only solve the needs of the whole family to make calls, but also include voice calls, intelligent chat, audio on demand and other functions. With the help of cloud storage to look back at any time, 24-hour real-time monitoring, two-way intercom, 360-degree abnormal monitoring and other functions, Unicom Kanjia makes cloud housekeeping services possible.
Good broadband should choose a good service
The good reputation of "10 home installation broadband, 6 Unicom" comes from the three service commitments of "(wired and wireless) internet access is fast", "(24 hours) speed", "(0 threshold) slow must lose", and also comes from the ingenuity of Beijing Unicom Zhijia engineers "Creative Service Connect you and me". Wang Zhen, Yu Zhihao and Master Li Zhiwei, who served the area of Badaling Town in Yanqing, found in the process of installing equipment for users that due to the several replacements of the residential property, it was difficult to install the equipment, and the underground optical fiber also broke the cable at more than 100 meters outdoors. In the installation process, there is also a situation where the optical junction box cable is not passed and the route needs to be changed, and the full dark line increases the difficulty of construction.
To this end, they first repaired the cable, after the cable was restored, they could not find the breakpoint, the property could not provide drawings and was not allowed to take the open line, reopened the pipe well, the optical cable interface package to find the routing obstacle point, a section of search, a core of a core to the line, climbed up and down on the pipe well, the line pole, and finally after nearly ten hours of hard work, at eleven o'clock in the night finally all loaded.
Starlight lives up to the passers-by. Recently, customers sent pennants and thank-you letters, which are not only praise and gratitude for their superb technology and intimate service, but also the best interpretation of their "guardians" of family networks and "demonstrators" of Unicom's ingenious services. Wang Zhen, Yu Zhihao and Li Zhiwei are the representatives of the quality of Unicom in the eyes of users, and they are also the epitome of thousands of Unicom's zhijia engineers. They forge high skills, so that the people of Beijing strive to achieve a new experience of smart home, and constantly meet the people's growing needs for a better life.
The world is more colorful because of the Internet, and life is richer because of the Internet. In today's world, the scientific and technological revolution and industrial change are changing with each passing day, and the digital economy is booming, profoundly changing the production and lifestyle of human beings. In the view of Beijing Unicom, no matter how technological innovation and change, the requirements of "adhering to the people-centered" have never changed, and the original intention of "people's posts and telecommunications for the people" has never changed.
Therefore, as the "national team for digital information infrastructure operation and service, the main force in the construction of digital China's smart society of a network powerhouse, and the vanguard of digital technology integration and innovation", Beijing Unicom will resolutely implement the development strategy of network power, continue to implement the special plan of "service re-upgrading", continue to deepen the construction of 5G boutique network and Gigabit broadband boutique network, further polish the golden signboard of "national chief, government first choice, people's first trust", and continue to provide the people in the capital with "use, affordability and good use" Information and communication services are constantly striving to meet the needs of the broad masses of the people in Beijing for a better and smarter life.
