the process of globalization is accelerating again——
(jiang xiaojuan, professor at the university of chinese academy of social sciences and former deputy secretary-general of the state council)
after the epidemic, globalization accelerated again, and in 2022, global trade accounted for a historical high of 60.74% of global gdp.
although the united states and the west are pursuing shortened chains and friendly chains, the length of the global industrial chain division of labor of some large multinational companies has extended from 700 to 800 kilometers before the epidemic to 1,200 kilometers, which is enough to show that current globalization is accelerating and also brings global opportunities.
next, we have to rely on a few specific industries to drive an economy like china and maintain a growth rate, which is very difficult. we need to find new ubiquitous momentum that can empower all walks of life.
globalization and digitalization are the two most important new drivers of china's economic growth in the next step. digital and intelligent technologies are the most important driving force for the new round of globalization.
there are huge structural changes in enterprises going overseas.
(tao jingwen, huawei director and president of quality process it)
in terms of globalization, going overseas has become a common consensus among zhejiang enterprises in the past few years, and more and more companies have realized that going overseas is the only way for chinese companies.
under the new consensus, we have seen tremendous structural changes in chinese companies' overseas expansion, from building global factories in the past to building factories around the world today. in particular, our local companies in zhejiang are actively expanding overseas markets and moving towards the globalization of their businesses.
using digital means to comply with regulations
(zhou liyang, chairman of juhua group co., ltd.)
regardless of whether they are state-owned, private or foreign-owned, enterprises are first and foremost economic organizations. in the process of digitalization, greening and globalization, it is definitely not enough for an economic organization to be satisfied with the chinese market. enterprises must go abroad to where they can make the most money.
there will definitely be pitfalls on the way out. there are four main ways to avoid pitfalls: first, you need to thoroughly study the laws of various places; second, you need to find a good cooperation team, because your own strength is not enough; third, you must use compliance and digital means to comply with the regulations. we work with huawei to build a data middle platform, and compliance-related matters are no longer controlled by people. fourth, the future is only digitalization, and a good digital service provider must be able to restructure the business into a digital platform.
digital production enables global manufacturing
(li jianhua, chairman of hangzhou wanshili silk culture co., ltd.)
we have transformed from a traditional enterprise to a digital manufacturing enterprise, and have mainly carried out digitalization in three aspects: digital design, digital production, and digital marketing.
at the recent paris olympics, wanshili used these technologies to respond quickly and serve the olympic team. in my opinion, the smooth overseas expansion of enterprises is due to the digital foundation and the waterless printing capabilities of enterprises, which enable us to carry out reforms on a global scale and achieve global manufacturing.

enterprises going global need to work together for warmth——
(pingpong co-founder luo yonglong)
china is a country with a very developed internet. when we go to places with backward infrastructure, are we better than others? not at all.
what you have accomplished in one country is difficult to replicate in another country. each country has different regulatory systems, different religious beliefs, different customs, and different ways of communication between people. it is difficult to replicate the successful experience of one country to another. it requires a patient team that understands the local situation.
so i think that when companies go global, they need to stick together, build trust, and give full play to their respective expertise. only when everyone in the ecosystem does their professional work well can we get things done together.
ai is the touchstone of digital transformation——
(he wentian, rotating president of hailiang group)
in the process of promoting digital transformation, companies have a common feeling that having achievements does not necessarily mean having results.
even if we do a lot of application upgrades, comprehensive data governance and infrastructure transformation, it may not immediately improve employee experience or change management's inherent habits.
for this reason, i believe that ai will become an amplifier, an amplifier of digital transformation, amplifying all the achievements of a company in its past digital transformation work. as the saying goes, if a company does not slack off in the first half of its digital transformation, it will have something to play with in the second half.
globalization requires the ability to deploy globally.
(zhang dongsheng, vice president of huawei cloud china)
if today's enterprises want to excel on the global stage, they must work hard to improve their internal strength and build world-class competitiveness. this requires enterprises to truly embrace digitalization, intelligence and globalization.
the traditional idea of globalization is that we sell our products abroad or build factories abroad, which is globalization and internationalization. however, true globalization should be the resources and capabilities of an enterprise, which should be able to achieve a global layout. digital transformation has become one of the most important driving forces for the high-quality development of enterprises, and it will also lay a new starting point for the development of enterprises and build a new momentum.
