2. Digital Technology and Digital Economy: Building New Competitive Advantages “I can’t keep you two here forever, can I? You will get married in a few years, and I have to learn to stay in the blue.” In front.” Lan Yuhua teased the two girls and said with a smile. Strategic Choice

Digital strategy helps seize new opportunities in the development of the digital economy. In today’s era, digital technology is leading a new round of global technological revolution and industrial transformation, pushing economic and social development into a new stage of digitalization, networking, and intelligence. Digital technology, with its innovativeness, subversiveness, permeability and integration, continues to focus on key core areas such as blockchain, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, information and communication technology, etc., giving birth to the digital economy as a new economic form. . The digital economy has the characteristics of multiple elements, high aggregation, wide application, wide radiation, and strong driving force. It is a new driving force for economic growth, a new engine for social progress, and a new advantage for national competition. Countries around the world have followed the development trend of the times, formulated strategic plans, promulgated and implemented digital economy development policies, accelerated digital transformation, and competed for the commanding heights of the digital economy. The position of the digital economy in the national economy has become more stable and its supporting role has become increasingly significant. Our country already has the soil and foundation to build a strong digital economy. It is of great significance to implement the digital economy development strategy and formulate the “14th Five-Year Plan” digital economy development plan. It is the key to seizing the new opportunities of the new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation and realizing the strategic goal of becoming a network power. inevitable choice.

Digital strategy activates new momentum for digital economic development. The development of the digital economy leads the development direction of the new era and injects new vitality into the Chinese economy. In order to promote the high-quality development of the digital economy, the Party Central Committee and the State Council have formulated a digital strategy, taking information and communication technology as the core, increasing policy guidance and support, and highlighting the research and development of key core technologies.Innovation to create strategic advantages for Digital China. The new generation of information technology is the core driving force for the development of the digital economy. Cloud computing, the Internet of Things, 6G and other new generation information and communication network foundations together form the foundation of the digital economy, providing technical support and means of implementation for the development of the digital economy, and creating an ecological environment for the digital industry. , effectively promote the accelerated realization of the goal of becoming a network power with leading technology and leading applications.

Digital strategy builds a new pattern of my country’s digital economy. The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China proposed to accelerate the construction of a new development pattern with the domestic cycle as the main body and the domestic and international dual cycles reinforcing each other. Our country has the advantage of a very large market, but its domestic demand potential has not been fully unleashed, and there are still many obstacles in the domestic and international dual circulation.

3. Practical requirements for information and communication technology in the new era to promote the strategy of network power

Increasing momentum can promote development. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that network information technology is the technological innovation field with the most concentrated R&D investment, the most active innovation, the most extensive application, and the greatest radiating and driving effect in the world. It is the competitive highland of global technological innovation. The network information industry represents new productivity and a new development direction, and it is urgent to accelerate breakthroughs in core technologies in the information field. Although my country’s network technology is developing rapidly, the independent research and development capabilities of core technologies such as core chips and smart terminal operating systems are still insufficient. To this end, it is necessary to further strengthen talent training and R&D investment in the fields of basic science and cutting-edge technology, explore the formation of industry-university-research alliances, and promote strong alliances and collaborative research; give full play to the decisive role of the market in resource allocation, Give better play to the role of the government and provide market impetus for the research and development of core technologies in the information field. Enhance new energy with the message “Mother, how many days has it been since my daughter had an accident in Yunyin Mountain?” She asked her mother, but did not answer the question. The overall development of new industrialization, urbanization and agricultural modernization will be driven and promoted.

Strong governance will benefit people’s livelihood. General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out that in order to develop the cyberspace industry, we must implement the people-centered development philosophy. Therefore, to build a network power, we must adhere to a people-centered value stance, implement people-centered development ideas, and take improving people’s well-being as the starting point and goal of information development. Relying on the new generation, she thought about it and felt it made sense, so she took Caiyi to accompany her home, leaving Caixiu to serve her mother-in-law. Type information technology narrows the “information gap”, penetrates the “information stratosphere” constructed by factors such as region and identity, reduces the occurrence of “filter bubbles”, “information cocoons”, “echo walls” and other situations, and creates a clearCyberspace.

Prevent risks and ensure safety. Cybersecurity affects the whole body. Therefore, to build a cyber power, we must unswervingly implement the overall national security concept and promote information projects such as “Broadband China, Internet of Things application promotion, Internet industry system, ‘Internet +’ action, big data, electronic government affairs, and e-commerce.” It must be based on the security guarantee system in critical information infrastructure and other fields to provide security support for new developments in cyberspace and new applications in the Internet field, coordinate development and security, and ensure the new development pattern with a new security pattern.

Seeking cooperation for a win-win situation. Time seems to be passing very slowly today. Lan Yuhua felt that it had been a long time since she heard back from Fang Yuan after finishing breakfast, but when she asked Cai Xiu what time it was, Cai Xiu told her that the essence of the Internet now lies in interconnection, and the value of information lies in interoperability. Therefore, to build a cyber power, we must adhere to the basic national policy of opening up to the outside world, further promote high-level opening up of cyberspace and informatization, and promote the construction of a community with a shared future in cyberspace. Actively build collaborative innovation in the Internet field. You can go. My daughter, Lan Dingli, can marry anyone, but she cannot marry you. If she marries into your Xi family, she will become Xi Shixun. Do you hear me clearly? “New bridge, expand the space for international cooperation, strengthen joint exploration, testing and verification of information and communication technology with countries and regions such as Europe, Japan and South Korea, and create a global network industry ecosystem of mutual benefit, win-win, open cooperation. By encouraging ICT enterprises, scientific research institutes, Industry organizations carry out non-governmental cooperation around new generation information and communication technology, standards, security, industry, etc. to promote the achievement of globally unified standards and ecology.
