this year marks the 75th anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china. as a very large communications operator in china, china telecom assumes corporate responsibility, leads the development and innovation of my country's communications services, and builds a strong telecommunications network. based in shanghai, china telecom shanghai company (hereinafter referred to as "shanghai telecom") has always resonated with the development of the city, helping the city to build a modern socialist metropolis with world influence, and leading the industry with forward-looking layout and solid innovation capabilities. develop front-end.
a person knows everything at a glance, and in the long river of history, a person is like a lonely boat, drifting with the current, and reading thousands of sails.
in 2024, hua jing has been working at shanghai telecom for 22 years. “i want my children to know that my father is running the network behind them.” this wish that was buried in hua jing’s heart when she joined shanghai telecom in 2002 has now become a reality. hua jing, a 22-year it "veteran", has witnessed the development of telecommunications networks: from the competition between telephone networks and ip networks, to leading the construction of shanghai metropolitan area network, to the new era of cloud-network integration, and now with the rapid development of digitalization of telecommunications networks. we also witnessed how the internet has profoundly changed the city of shanghai and promoted the continuous transformation and development of the land under our feet.
growth: shanghai telecom’s “living history”
"they sometimes joke with me, saying that i am the 'living history' of shanghai telecom." looking back on her work experience, hua jing, solution manager of shanghai telecom's government and enterprise customer business group, made a joke.
in 2002, hua jing, who graduated from tongji university majoring in computer science and technology, joined shanghai telecom. she started as a front-line repairman and devoted herself to the development of the national telecommunications industry. at that time, he chose the seemingly "eccentric" ip network, and the gears of fate turned - ip networks gradually became a "necessity of life" in the next 20 years, and the powerful internet weaved drove all walks of life forward. .
in 2008, the first important node in huajing's work history arrived: building a volunteer training and management platform for the shanghai world expo. facing more than 100,000 volunteers, the task was handed over to shanghai telecom and also fell on the shoulders of huajing, who “understands both the internet and the cloud.” "heaven will give great responsibility to this person." hua jing led the team to accept the order in the face of danger. after more than a month of hard work, they handed over a satisfactory answer - shanghai telecom's first cloud host was officially delivered for commercial use. "resources are flexible and can be used on demand." "it solved the problems of volunteer management and repeated equipment construction, led shanghai telecom to boldly enter the field of cloud computing, and won the world expo volunteer outstanding contribution award.
since then, huajing has continued to take pioneering and innovative steps. in 2014, huajing and its team assisted taiwan-funded banks in moving their core financial systems to the cloud, evolving from a phased public service platform into a sustainable commercial financial system "financial cloud", laying a foundation for the future development of cloud-network integration. seed.
in 2016, the general office of the shanghai municipal government issued a notice on the "shanghai e-government cloud construction work plan" to improve the level of service to the people and enhance the government's modern governance capabilities. based on the experience of "financial cloud", huajing led the team to participate in the construction of shanghai e-government cloud. this is the world's first dual high-availability government cloud and the largest provincial government cloud in china. it explores the group's first entity it has optimized the government cloud operation model and passed the level 3 protection evaluation with the highest score of 92.24 for shanghai government cloud platforms at all levels.
since then, shanghai telecom has opened up a two-level government cloud construction pattern in urban areas, expanded the shanghai e-government cloud to all districts, and changed the new model of operator development. based on the overall goal of "three horizontal and two vertical, cloud and digital linkage", huajing led the team to focus on market demand and carry out technical research, and finally used their own ingenuity to explore a full-stack intelligent and trusted e-government cloud architecture, and compiled china telecom shanghai the company’s municipal e-government cloud technology solution. through the design of the urban two-level e-government cloud system, we have successively won bids for e-government cloud projects in chongming, pudong, changning, huangpu, baoshan, jiading, putuo, hongkou and shanghai, realizing the logical integration of district government cloud and municipal cloud. integration helps government departments ultimately form a two-level cloud system in urban areas.
the successful implementation of the urban-level government cloud project has also prompted the technical team to replicate and promote the technical architecture horizontally to shanghai's first education cloud (pudong education cloud), promoting the development of shanghai's cloud computing industry chain and assisting the regional market of china telecom shanghai company it has a leading position in the industry and has won the group's government cloud development pioneer award for two consecutive years.
by the beginning of 2021, huajing led the team to complete the integration of government cloud at the two urban levels and continued to expand to commercial customers, allowing the "cloud" to benefit thousands of industries. at the same time, “cloud” business models continue to shift to digital transformation efforts. huajing and her team undertook the special work of five new city project teams and overcame difficulties to support front-line operations. in the new city work, they piloted five new city special offices and industry bd tie-up integrated project innovation mechanisms, focusing on new city planning guidelines and the intersection of industry insights has opened up a number of industry-specific platforms such as the integration of industry and education, edpaas-smart transportation, and domain name identification resolution, which can accumulate and reusable capabilities, laying the foundation for empowering xincheng branches to generate step-level income through platform operations. a new profit growth point with the characteristics of the new city.
"a sense of responsibility, a sense of mission, and a sense of urgency" are the difficulties and incentives huajing feels when looking back on its past development process. behind the seemingly concrete customers, he actually serves people's livelihood. "i feel that at this point, this task falls on me, which also encourages me to continue to make progress." hua jing said.
individuals and teams: “take one more step forward”
the ever-changing pace of innovation has allowed huajing to grow in business skills and at the same time improve its management capabilities. facing increasingly complex teams and increasingly difficult project requirements, he deeply realized the importance of management.
“many companies we serve only have processes and no project management, but when doing projects, we must have a team concept,” hua jing said. “we must consider corporate environmental factors. if we serve a unit within the system, then we must how to communicate with its corporate culture is very important. we must maintain efficient communication and treat related management in a more agile manner in conjunction with the rapid development of it technology.”
currently, huajing’s team is divided into two directions: the solution team responsible for pre-sales, and the project team responsible for technical support. after years of cooperation and working on multiple projects, hua jing's tacit understanding with the team gradually improved. however, when he first became the leader of the team, he also encountered many troubles.
"in the beginning, i was not actually in charge of the team, but was doing cross-department coordination work." hua jing said, "cross-department coordination means there will be countless fuzzy areas in the middle, and it is difficult to separate the boundaries clearly. who should be allowed to do this? ?" faced with this problem, huajing decided to make herself "one more step forward" and become the "lubricant" of the team, which would improve communication efficiency and help control the overall project.
when exploring the "cloud" project of the core financial system of taiwan-funded banks, huajing was the person who "took the extra step". at that time, huajing, which only specialized in network infrastructure construction, knew nothing about server debugging, application deployment and docking processes. in these vacuum zones, he chose to "do more" and "learn more." this habit has also been brought to his customer consulting work. by guiding the migration of units to the cloud, huajing has learned about the characteristics of various industry platforms on the one hand, combined with the group's industry insight needs to connect more work; on the other hand, it has also improved customer perception, "the service is not cold." , when customers feel that the solution is "co-created" with telecom, it also enhances their value recognition for shanghai telecom.
based on past project experience and management experience, huajing won the honor of "shanghai craftsman" issued by the shanghai federation of trade unions in 2018, and therefore won the title of "model worker of central enterprises" in 2019. ".
go: times and future
in her spare time, hua jing is also a go enthusiast and has reached the amateur level of 3rd dan in go. since his youth, he has been fascinated by this intellectual game with a long history and complex changes. after working, go did not leave him, and the philosophical principles contained in it also profoundly affected his way of life.
"i think people who like to play go tend to have global thinking." hua jing concluded. comprehensiveness and not sticking to details, this is what hua jing learned from playing go. with a technical background, he is always wary not to fall into the trap of technical details. as the saying goes, "a single tree cannot make a forest." as he gradually develops an overall view, hua jing has a "feeling" that intuitively guides him to make local judgments.
facing the development of the times, hua jing feels that she is a lucky person. she has seized the opportunity and found her mission and the joy of life in her work. but luck is not destined.
there is a term in go called "taking the lead", which refers to the moment when the two sides of the game are in contact with each other, ignoring the opponent's moves and trying to get the first move elsewhere. "what does it mean to 'take the lead'? when you see a complex situation, you need to evaluate which one is big and which one is small, and find the biggest opportunities and biggest difficulties. in a complicated era, you may find every outlet they all have potential, but you have to find the one that suits you best," hua jing said. when he first entered the workplace, he chose ip networks, which he was better at, and embarked on the path of exploring cloud-network integration; in the era of digital transformation and development, he chose to expand digital assessment infrastructure work. among the many choices, find the one that suits you best.
"i have enjoyed the dividends of the era of informatization development, and have a good platform like china telecom as a backing, which has allowed me to embark on this development path that is unique to me." hua jing said, "for the current new generation, i know facing the rapidly developing society, they will feel at a loss, but people still have to stick to their dreams, decide what they can decide, and wait for their own time to come. "opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared." the phrase "chicken soup" has been mentioned by countless people, but it is also the principle that hua jing has always believed in.
22 years of growth have created huajing, which stands out in the tide of the times; inheritance from generation to generation has condensed today's shanghai telecom. "people's posts and telecommunications for the people" is china telecom's unchanging original intention and commitment to society. shanghai telecom has witnessed the development of shanghai and even china's telecom networks, promoted the development of new technologies, and written a new chapter in the communications industry with its own pen.
on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the people's republic of china, looking back at the past, times have created heroes, and the hard-working chinese have cultivated this land; looking forward to the future, a new wave is already surging and will eventually lift up a new generation of young people and flow to the far side.
