4) Coordinated development of regional broadband networks

The Eastern Region is actively deploying new-type broadband facilities. In the Eastern Region, fiber-to-the-home is fully implemented, national standards, all new buildings to achieve fiber-to-the-home, old residential areas vigorously implement “light into copper retreat” , the first to complete the upgrade of fiber-optic broadband network. At the same time, with the popularization of high bandwidth applications such as 4k/8k ultra-high definition, virtual reality/augmented reality, etc. , Shanghai and other places are actively launching gigabit light, fiber access pilot, and promoting the deployment of gigabit broadband access networks.

As of June 2020, there were 1.55 million users with 1,000 megabytes or more in the eastern region, accounting for 58.1 percent of the country’s total gigabit users. In the initial stage of 5G network deployment, the Eastern Region, represented by the Beijing-tianjin-hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Guangdong-hong Kong-macao Bay area, accelerated the deployment of 5G network. There are 260,0005g base stations in the eastern region, accounting for 63.4 percent of the total 5g base stations in China.

Midwestern Sectional Figure Skating Championships speeds up broadband network construction. The Midwestern Sectional Figure Skating Championships has been actively promoting the construction of Internet bandwidth and band access ports, expanding the coverage area of the access network, and increasing the access rate and popularization level of broadband users.

As of June 2020, the total number of Internet broadband access ports in the Midwestern Sectional Figure Skating Championships was 430 million, up 168.4 percent from 2013 and accounting for 46.4 percent of the country’s total internet broadband access ports, up 1 percentage point from 2013.

At the same time, the central and western regions are actively deploying the construction of data centers, and Ningxia, Guizhou, Inner Mongolia and other places are making full use of their advantages in energy, geology and climate, actively linking up the construction needs of data centers in the Eastern Region, and the network of data centers is significantly improving their capabilities, china’s new large-scale, super-large data center gradually to the central and western conditions, suitable for regional transfer.

5) enabling effects of integration are becoming more evident

Broadband support drives the vigorous development of digital economy. The Information revolution, which is characterized by digitization, networking, and intelligence, is booming, while the convergence of broadband networks with the real economy is not yet complete, and the scope is constantly deepening and expanding, it has formed new models, new forms of business and new industries for the development of the Digital Economy, and comprehensively strengthened new engines and new driving forces for high-quality economic development.

In the field of consumption, e-commerce, represented by live delivery and new retail, has expanded in depth, and online retail has continued to be active. From January to July 2020, online retail sales nationwide reached 6.1 trillion yuan, up 9.0 percent year-on-year, of which the online retail sales of physical goods increased 15.7 percent year-on-year, accounting for 25.0 percent of the retail sales of social consumer goods. In the field of production, the broadband network accelerates the evolution and upgrading, enabling manufacturing, and industry transformation and upgrading.

Significant progress has been made in the application of the industrial internet in key areas, with the digitalization of enterprises, the penetration rate of R & D and design tools reaching 49 per cent, and the NC rate of key processes reaching 69 per cent. Industrial Internet, the application scene has covered machinery, steel, electronics, petrochemical, automobile, machinery, light industry and other manufacturing, the main categories of the industry, and constantly expand to the energy, transportation, medical and other industries, gradually to design, services and other high value-added links to extend.

Effective support of broadband network for epidemic prevention and control and resumption of work and production. Internet of things, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and other new information technology in the new coronary pneumonia epidemic, situation prevention and control and back to work, and the application, and achieved significant results.

In the scientific prevention and control of epidemic situations, medical institutions have made use of new technologies such as broadband networks, big data, artificial intelligence, etc. , accurately and efficiently carry out the epidemic monitoring and analysis, virus detection and diagnosis, research and development of new vaccines and drugs, virus traceability, patient tracking, community management and other work.

Medical materials manufacturing enterprises rely on large numbers, according to the platform for the supply and demand of medical epidemic prevention materials precise docking, efficient production, co-ordination as well as, recycling management. In terms of resuming work and production, the broadband network has promoted the application of new models and new products such as collaborative research and development, unmanned production, remote operation and maintenance, online services, cloud contracting, and so on, the realization of “on-line does not drop the line, the work is uninterruptible” the remote office mode has provided the powerful safeguard. For example, during the epidemic, China Telecom relied on 5G network, realized on the platform of Tianyi Cloud Conference, and signed the “cloud” long-distance contract of the People’s Government of Anhui Province and Chinese Academy of Sciences Strategic Cooperation Agreement.

3. Broadband networks continue to evolve and re-establish themselves as the cornerstone of the digital economy

At present, the information infrastructure is facing the major transformation of new and old driving forces, the adjustment of development focus, and the innovation of operation mode, its endogenous dynamic energy will expand from the traditional network technology to the new generation of information technology such as big data, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, Internet of things; The focus of development will shift from traditional network indicators such as bandwidth and rate to ecological indicators closely related to urban management and people’s livelihood services, and the main operators will shift from traditional telecom operators to Internet enterprises, industry leaders, etc. , the main body extends, thus will form the pluralistic development power, the multi-dimensional appraisal standard and the diverse service, the service form.

Broadband networks at home and abroad continue to evolve and restructure towards the four pillars of connectivity, computing, platform and application. The new generation of information infrastructure has become global-oriented and future-oriented, it is an important carrier to enhance national comprehensive strength and core competitiveness, and also a key enabler to support economic development, social development and digital economy.
