On the afternoon of September 16, a double-stream Internet of Things industry development exchange seminar with the theme of "Exploring The Upgrading of Science and Technology To Empower Industry and Jointly Build a New Highland for the Internet of Things Industry" was quietly held. Although this is a low-key closed-door meeting, the theme discussed at the meeting is closely related to shuangliu large and small manufacturing enterprises, that is: what kind of digital and intelligent transformation and upgrading should traditional manufacturing enterprises take?
As we all know, Shuangliu gathers a large number of manufacturing enterprises, but in recent years, with the earth-shaking changes in the development environment of large industries, the business model of traditional manufacturing industry is struggling, the profit margin is deteriorating, and transformation and upgrading are imminent. Fortunately, Shuangliu is also a gathering area for the development of emerging information technology industries, and many innovative enterprises in information technology applications have settled here, which also provides a unique advantage for the upgrading of traditional manufacturing industries here.
Among them, in 2019, Huawei and Shuangliu successfully held hands, and the Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center was settled in Shuangliu and officially put into operation, which can be described as a "match made in heaven". It is also from then on, with the gradual popularization of 5G networks and technologies, the application of the Internet of Things is also in full bloom, people in life to take a variety of things for granted, began to transform in front of everyone in a "smart" way, which involves all aspects of life, including smart transportation, smart medical, smart logistics, smart gas, smart street lights, smart water meters, etc., and by Huawei IoT (Internet of Things) technology based on the creation of a full-scenario smart Internet of Things solution, Let shuangliu local manufacturing enterprises see the prospects and hopes of transformation.
"The digital and intelligent transformation of traditional manufacturing enterprises is just getting started." Luo Gang, deputy director of the Shuangliu District Party Committee Office, said that to support the transformation and development of these enterprises, in the past, the government gave more preferential treatment in terms of land and taxation, but now this set has not worked, "In addition to hardware conditions, the government needs to give enterprises more software support to provide them with digital and intelligent transformation services, which is the significance of Shuangliu's cooperation with Huawei." ”

In Sichuan Dacheng New Energy Lighting Technology Co., Ltd., located in Shuangliu District, several technicians are checking the operation of street lights on the big screen, and through just a computer, they can remotely control thousands of smart light poles distributed throughout Chengdu, whether it is switching lights or adjusting the brightness of lights, or calling the monitor on the light poles, clicking the mouse can be completed.
However, just two years ago, Dacheng New Energy is still a completely traditional manufacturing enterprise, although it has an annual output of 50,000 lamp poles production capacity, the annual turnover of about 200 million yuan, but the traditional order production mode, so that their profit margins are constantly squeezed, in the industry the voice is getting lower and lower.
In 2019, Dacheng New Energy embarked on the road of digital and intelligent transformation, coinciding with the operation of the Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center in Shuangliu, they directly put their servers on HUAWEI CLOUD, and at the same time, based on Huawei's IoT technology, developed a number of smart light poles that are more suitable for market demand, which also allows Dacheng New Energy to upgrade from a simple manufacturing enterprise to a smart light pole integrated service provider.
"Huawei's technical advantages allow us to provide customers with better quality and more accurate smart light pole operation services, which greatly increases the added value compared with the simple light pole manufacturing." Yang Qingshan, director of R&D at Dacheng New Energy Smart City, said that using Huawei's artificial intelligence, big data and other technologies, their smart light poles can already intelligently adjust the lighting time and brightness of street lamps according to weather conditions, "for example, in the same summer, when the street lights can be turned off in advance on a sunny day; if you encounter heavy rain, you can delay the lights off, and adjust the brightness of the street lights according to the brightness of the environment, so that the street lights can play a better role, and at the same time, energy saving and emission reduction can be achieved." ”
Also in Shuangliu, another company, Zhongkexin Future Microelectronics Technology Chengdu Co., Ltd., has also reached an in-depth cooperation with HUAWEI CLOUD.
Prior to this, the smart home medical platform built by ZhongkeXin in the future has been using the way of self-built computer room to store data, which means that high equipment investment, expensive private network access costs, harsh computer room security conditions, and huge labor cost investment, more headache is that with the continuous expansion of business scale, such investment will also show geometric growth.
After accessing Huawei's IoT technology, using the HUAWEI CLOUD platform, ZhongkeXin no longer needs to build its own computer room in the future, and only needs a computer to remotely control the portable home medical equipment distributed in community hospitals and township health centers across the country, from equipment costs to labor costs. At the same time, as the number of devices to be managed increases in the future, they can also flexibly expand on HUAWEI CLOUD servers, leaving a very convenient elastic space for enterprise development.
These two companies are just a microcosm of the transformation and upgrading of Shuangliu local manufacturing enterprises with the help of Huawei's IoT technology. According to Luo Gang, in the two years since the Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center was put into operation, more than 200 local enterprises in Shuangliu have used HUAWEI CLOUD services, of which more than 170 companies have reached in-depth cooperation with HUAWEI CLOUD.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="16" > increase talent training and help intelligent acceleration</h1>
With the help of HUAWEI CLOUD, more and more local enterprises have embarked on the road of smart upgrades, and the next question is how to make them run faster and faster on this road.
At the closed-door meeting on the afternoon of the 16th, there were not only research institutions and industry enterprises such as the Chengdu-Chongqing Information and Communication Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Information and Communications Technology, Tongfang Co., Ltd. (Sichuan), Sichuan Kai Electric Co., Ltd., Sichuan Special Drive Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Technology Group Co., Ltd., as well as representatives from Sichuan University, Chengdu University of Information Engineering, Southwest University for Nationalities and other universities, which also means that the cultivation of talents in related industries has become the top priority of the next step to accelerate the transformation of enterprises.
In fact, at present, in the talent team of many manufacturing enterprises in Shuangliu, "new and old inheritance" is an important topic that everyone generally faces and explores together. In the older generation of management teams, the introduction of young teams familiar with digitalization and intelligence is the key to the success of enterprise transformation, and relevant talents have become in short supply.
In order to accelerate the cultivation of outstanding talents, Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center is also actively cooperating with Sichuan universities, up to now, the center has cooperated with 6 universities in Shuangliu District, such as Sichuan University, Southwest University for Nationalities, and Chengdu University of Information Engineering, to open Internet of Things and big data training and practical training courses, and provide empowerment training for employment scenarios, enterprise talent needs, and scientific research directions, covering more than 2,500 students.
In the next step, cooperation in this regard will be further deepened. At the closed-door meeting, Guo Bing, deputy dean of the School of Computer Science of Sichuan University, Jingzhong, dean of the School of Computer Science of Southwest University for Nationalities, and He Linbo, deputy dean of the School of Cyberspace Security of Chengdu University of Information Engineering, mentioned in their speeches that they hope that through closer cooperation with the government, enterprises and universities, students can have a deeper understanding of the industry, and through school-enterprise cooperation to incubate high-quality projects, help students innovate and start a business, which also means that a composite talent training path of "government-industry-learning-research-investment-use" is gradually taking shape.
To accelerate the intelligent transformation, in addition to playing a key potential energy in talent training, Huawei's own technical advantages will also play an important role. According to Wang Kun, general manager of HUAWEI CLOUD Sichuan-Tibet Region, with the continuous development of the digital economy in Shuangliu District, the next step of Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center will also be further deepened, including data mining, application development, artificial intelligence and other technologies will also be more in-depth to empower industry enterprises, "In the future, these capabilities will be based on Shuangliu and radiate to the entire southwest region." ”
The 16th Plenary Session of the 13th Committee of the Communist Party of China in Shuangliu District, Chengdu, held in July this year, pointed out that to promote the high-quality economic and social development of Shuangliu, the "first driving force" is to build a new engine for scientific and technological innovation, a new benchmark for modern industrial systems, a new highland for the gathering of innovative elements, and a new hub for opening up and cooperation through innovation, and strive to become the country's leading source of scientific and technological innovation and innovation and entrepreneurship highland. With the acceleration of innovative enterprises represented by Huawei (Chengdu) IoT Cloud Innovation Center in Shuangliu, the trend of innovation is surging in this hot land, and the Shuangliu area is getting closer and closer to its goal.
