— — Review on the Construction of Digital Infrastructure in China Guided by General Secretary of Supreme Leader
A nine-story platform starts from tired soil.
Looking at the world, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation has accelerated its evolution. Countries all over the world have taken promoting digital infrastructure construction as an important kinetic energy to realize innovation and development, constantly activating new applications, expanding new formats and creating new models. Under the background of weak global economic recovery, digital infrastructure is constantly supporting and leading the new direction of economic development with the power of key base.
Feng Peng is raising the sky and the sea, making Yun Fan stand at the forefront.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, under the guidance of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, China’s informatization and digitalization have been developing rapidly, and the digital infrastructure with the largest scale, leading technology and superior performance in the world has been built, and the overall level has been improved by leaps and bounds, and the Digital China Building has been steadily lifted. The development pulse of China is getting stronger and stronger, and the strategic, basic and leading role of digital new infrastructure in supporting economic and social development is increasingly prominent.
Grasp the "Time" and "Situation" and Deploy Digital Infrastructure Construction in an All-round Way.
Throughout the history of world civilization, human beings have experienced agricultural revolution, industrial revolution and information revolution, and each round of scientific and technological revolution has bred new infrastructure, further promoted the development of industrial transformation and led the new economic transformation and upgrading.
If you want to build a house, treat its foundation first. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has profound thoughts on building digital infrastructure, the cornerstone of the development of the information age.
On February 27, 2014, at the first meeting of the Central Cyber Security and Informatization Leading Group, the Supreme Leader General Secretary emphasized: "We must have a good information infrastructure and form a strong information economy." "The strategic deployment of building a network power should be related to ‘ Two hundred years ’ The goal of struggle has been promoted simultaneously, and it has been advancing towards the goal of basically popularizing network infrastructure, significantly enhancing the ability of independent innovation, comprehensively developing the information economy, and ensuring strong network security. " Standing on the historical and overall height, the Supreme Leader General Secretary put forward the strategic goal of building a network power according to the situation, and regarded having a good information infrastructure as an important content of building a network power.
Whenever new opportunities and changes appear, whoever grasps the opportunities and embraces the changes first will win the development opportunities. At that time, as a new economic form, information economy was becoming an important way to promote economic growth and an important force to drive innovation and development. Promoting the all-round development of information economy with the construction of information infrastructure is an important strategic measure to make efforts, move and follow the trend.
In 2014, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader made a major judgment that China’s economic development has entered a new normal, and profoundly expounded the characteristics of speed change, structural optimization and power conversion under the new normal: the mode of economic development is shifting from extensive growth of scale and speed to intensive growth of quality and efficiency, the economic structure is shifting from incremental capacity expansion to deep adjustment with the coexistence of stock adjustment and optimization and increment, and the power of economic development is shifting from traditional growth point to new growth point.
The new normal needs new impetus. Where does the new impetus come from? "We should strengthen the construction of information infrastructure, strengthen the deep integration of information resources, and get through the information of economic and social development ‘ Aorta ’ 。” General Secretary of the Supreme Leader took the "artery" as a metaphor and profoundly expounded the strategic, basic and leading role of information infrastructure in economic and social development. Strengthening the construction of information infrastructure and promoting technology flow, capital flow, talent flow and material flow with information flow will help promote the rapid flow of resource elements, accelerate the integration of market players and improve the efficiency and quality of economic operation.
A profound insight and accurate grasp of the general trend of development cannot be separated from long-term theoretical thinking and practical exploration.
As early as the 1980s, the supreme leader comrade, then secretary of Ningde District Committee of Fujian Province, was keenly aware of the important role of information infrastructure in the economy and society. He pointed out that "if the economy wants to develop, posts and telecommunications should go first." "In comparison, the investment in post and telecommunications is less, the effect is quick and the feasibility is great. The improvement of communication can make up for the lack of traffic. This is the so-called ‘ The feet are not long enough, so you should use the windward ears ’ 。” With the strong promotion of the Supreme Leader, Ningde realized the communication leap of "weak birds fly first", the local hardware investment environment was greatly improved, and enterprises mushroomed in eastern Fujian.
Entering the new century, on May 17th, 2002, on the 34th World Telecommunication Day, the supreme leader comrade, then governor of Fujian Province, published a signed article entitled "Narrowing the Digital Divide and Serving Economic Construction" in Fujian Daily. In this article, the supreme leader comrade regards the construction of information infrastructure as an important part of promoting digital Fujian, and points out the way forward for accelerating the digital transformation of Fujian’s information.
At present, the information revolution is surging, and technologies such as Internet, big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence and blockchain are accelerating innovation, and are increasingly integrated into the whole process of economic and social development. The importance, necessity and urgency of accelerating the construction of new infrastructure with digital infrastructure as the core are increasingly prominent.
In 2018, the Central Economic Work Conference proposed: "China’s investment demand potential is still huge at this stage of development. It is necessary to play a key role in investment, increase technological transformation and equipment renewal in manufacturing, accelerate the pace of 5G commercialization, and strengthen new infrastructure construction such as artificial intelligence, industrial Internet and Internet of Things." This is the first time that new infrastructure construction has appeared in a meeting at the central level.
In 2020, new infrastructure construction appeared in many central meetings such as the CPC Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee Conference and the the State Council Executive Meeting. On January 3rd, the executive meeting of the State Council proposed "the introduction of new infrastructure investment support policies such as information networks"; On February 14th, the 12th meeting of the Central Committee for Comprehensively Deepening Reform pointed out that "infrastructure is an important support for economic and social development, and it should be guided by overall optimization, coordination and integration, coordinate the development of existing and incremental, traditional and new infrastructure, and create an intensive, efficient, economical, intelligent, green, safe and reliable modern infrastructure system"; On March 4th, the CPC Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee held a meeting to point out "accelerating the construction progress of new infrastructure such as 5G network and data center" …
These requirements are important judgments made by the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core for its profound insight and keen grasp of the development trend of the information revolution, and are important guidelines for accelerating the construction of digital infrastructure.
In today’s era, the digital economy is developing at an unprecedented speed, radiating widely and influencing deeply, and is becoming a key force to reorganize global factor resources, reshape the global economic structure and change the global competition pattern.
In October 2021, a collective study on "Promoting the Healthy Development of China’s Digital Economy" was held in Zhongnanhai. "It is necessary to speed up the construction of new infrastructure, strengthen the strategic layout, speed up the construction of high-speed ubiquitous, integrated heaven and earth, cloud and network integration, smart and agile, green and low-carbon, safe and controllable intelligent comprehensive digital information infrastructure, and open up the information of economic and social development ‘ Aorta ’ 。” The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has clearly defined the direction of China’s digital information infrastructure construction, which is highly strategic, targeted and instructive, and provides scientific guidance for promoting the construction of digital information infrastructure with high quality.
In April 2022, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader presided over the 11th meeting of the Central Financial and Economic Committee to study the issue of comprehensively strengthening infrastructure construction. The meeting pointed out: "Accelerate the construction of new infrastructure and upgrade the level of traditional infrastructure." Make overall plans to promote the construction and development of traditional infrastructure and new infrastructure. The "new" and "old" are the changes of the dynamic generate and development momentum.
Facing the new era, a series of deployments have been launched one after another. "The 14th Five-year Plan for National Economic and Social Development in People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Outline of Long-term Goals in 2035" lists "accelerating the construction of new infrastructure" as a special section; The "14th Five-Year National Informatization Plan" proposes to build a ubiquitous digital infrastructure system of Zhilian. The Tenth Five-Year Plan for the Development of Digital Economy proposes to optimize and upgrade the digital infrastructure. The Outline of the Strategic Plan for Expanding Domestic Demand (2022-2035) requires the systematic layout of new infrastructure; Various localities have set up the target planning of building 5G base stations in the new year to systematically promote the construction of digital infrastructure.
From the central government to the local government, a series of specific arrangements have been made intensively, and the implementation of digital infrastructure projects that benefit the present and focus on the future has been accelerated. The information "artery" has been continuously opened, activating the economy. Under the strong support of digital infrastructure, the scale of China’s digital economy reached 45.5 trillion yuan in 2021, ranking second in the world.
On July 16th, 2021, the Supreme Leader of president was invited to attend the informal meeting of APEC leaders by video and delivered a speech. Chairman of the Supreme Leader pointed out that it is necessary to strengthen the construction of digital infrastructure and strive to build an open, fair and non-discriminatory digital business environment.

Create new development momentum and advantages, and open up the information "artery" of economic and social development.
"If you want to be rich, you should build roads first", which is a simple truth that Chinese has witnessed by word of mouth. In the digital age, this "road" is showing new connotation and creativity.
In recent years, China has continuously strengthened the layout of digital infrastructure, promoted the construction of network infrastructure, computing infrastructure and application infrastructure as a whole, vigorously promoted the systematic development and large-scale deployment of digital infrastructure, and achieved remarkable results, injecting strong impetus into the high-quality development of China’s economy.
— — Network infrastructure realizes leap-forward development
"Officially opened!" With the opening of the 5G experimental base station in Dulongjiang Township, Yunnan Province, and the successful dialing of the first 5G high-definition video call in the province, "Internet+education", "Internet+medical care" and "internet plus e-commerce" have landed in Dulongjiang Township, making Dulong, a nation that entered the modern society at the latest in the past, realize the dream of "leaping into the Millennium" of informationization.
From the city to the countryside, from the mine to Mount Everest, from the island to the Gobi, climbing towers, installing antennas and laying optical cables ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
From 1G blank, 2G following, to 3G breakthrough, 4G parallel running, and then to the number of 5G base stations, the scale of independent networking, and the number of terminal connections all rank first in the world, why can China 5G lead the world?
The key is to play "first move" and "active battle".
As early as 2013, China established a 5G promotion group (IMT-2020 promotion group) composed of "production, learning, research and use" to promote the research and development of 5G technology, verify technical solutions and support the formulation of international standards.
Three years later, in January 2016, China announced the full launch of the 5G technology research and development experiment, and plans to conduct 5G key technology experiments, 5G technical solutions and system verification in stages during the three years from 2016 to 2018; In July, the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Outline of the National Informatization Development Strategy, which clearly stated that by 2020, the fifth-generation mobile communication (5G) technology research and development and standards will make a breakthrough.
Those who do things often succeed, those who do things often arrive, and history never fails those who do things.
June 6, 2019 is an extraordinary day in the process of China’s 5G commercialization. On this day, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology issued 5G commercial licenses to China Telecom, China Mobile, China Unicom and China Radio and Television, and China officially entered the first year of 5G commercialization. According to the data of China Information and Communication Research Institute, in terms of direct economic and social contributions, it is estimated that the total economic output directly driven by the commercial use of 5G in China will reach 10.6 trillion yuan from 2020 to 2025. The tide is stirring and thousands of springs are rushing. China became the first country in the world to build a 5G network based on the scale of independent networking mode; By the end of 2022, China had built and opened 2.31 million 5G base stations. China declared 18,000 essential patents for 5G standards, accounting for nearly 40% of the global total.
People’s livelihood is no small matter, and branches and leaves are always related to love.
"Compared with cities, rural Internet infrastructure construction is our shortcoming. It is necessary to increase investment, accelerate the pace of rural Internet construction, and expand the effective coverage of optical fiber networks and broadband networks in rural areas. " Infrastructure construction is related to people’s lives, and the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader has always been concerned.
From the release of the "Broadband China" strategy, to the full implementation of the project of information entering villages and households, and the promotion of network speed-up and fee reduction, optical fiber broadband spans mountains and seas and connects every corner of China. At present, China has achieved "broadband access to every village", "5G access to counties" and "Gigabit access to cities", and "the same network and the same speed" between rural and urban areas has basically been realized, effectively bridging the digital divide between urban and rural areas.
The strong development momentum of 5G has pushed the mobile Internet of Things into a new period of rapid development.
This is an exciting news — — China has become the first country in the world’s major economies to achieve "material superman". By August, 2022, China’s three basic telecommunications companies had developed 1.698 billion mobile Internet of Things terminal users, exceeding the number of mobile phone users and building the world’s largest mobile Internet of Things network. A series of policy documents, such as Notice on Comprehensively Promoting the Construction and Development of Mobile Internet of Things (NB-IoT) and Notice on Further Promoting the All-round Development of Mobile Internet of Things, have been issued and implemented one after another. In recent years, with the policy support and joint efforts of all parties, China’s mobile Internet of Things has been deeply integrated into various fields of economic and social development, and the number of mobile Internet of Things connections has exceeded 70% in the world.
Accelerating the scale deployment of IPv6 is an urgent requirement to speed up the construction of a network power, accelerate the process of national informatization, help economic and social development, and win new advantages in future international competition.
As early as 2003, China started the demonstration project of China’s next generation Internet, CNGI, and launched the live network test in 2006. In 2008, China built the largest pure IPv6 next-generation Internet in the world at that time, and achieved related leading technology and application results. Since then, the development of China’s IPv6 industry has accelerated, and by 2014, 100 million terminals supporting IPv6 have been listed ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
In November 2017, the General Offices of the General Office of the Central Committee of the CPC and the State Council issued the Action Plan for Promoting the Scale Deployment of Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6), proposing to accelerate the scale deployment of IPv6 and build the next generation Internet with high speed, wide popularization, full coverage and intelligence.
In March, 2021, the 14th Five-Year Plan for National Economic and Social Development in People’s Republic of China (PRC) and the Outline of Long-term Goals in 2035 proposed to expand the interconnection nodes of backbone networks, set up a number of new international communication portals, and comprehensively promote the commercial deployment of IPv6.
Since then, the Central Network Information Office and other departments have successively issued the "Notice on Accelerating the Scale Deployment and Application of Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6)" and other documents, and organized and actively carried out the pilot work of IPv6 technology innovation and integrated application to comprehensively and deeply promote the scale deployment and application of IPv6.
All localities and departments should conscientiously implement it and further promote the scale deployment and application development of IPv6; All kinds of network information enterprises responded positively, accelerated the pace of IPv6 upgrading, and increased the intensity of heavy drainage … By December 2022, the total number of IPv6 address resources that China had applied for reached 67,369 /32, ranking first in the world; The number of IPv6 active users in China reached 728 million; China’s network infrastructure has fully supported IPv6.
Having an independent satellite navigation system is an important guarantee for the security and development of a big country.
On July 31, 2020, the completion and opening ceremony of Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was held in Beijing. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attended the ceremony and announced: "Beidou-3 global satellite navigation system was officially opened!" China’s self-built and independently operated global satellite navigation system has been fully established.
This is the unprecedented "China Road". During the twenty-six years from the establishment of the project in 1994 to the completion of the Beidou-1 system in 2000, from the official provision of regional services in 2012 to the global service in 2020, China Beidou explored a development path with China characteristics from scratch, from being excellent, from active to passive, and from regional to global, making China the third country in the world to independently own a global satellite navigation system.
Nearly 8,000 Beidou terminals of various models are applied and promoted in the railway field; In 2021, the number of domestic smartphone shipments supporting Beidou system reached 324 million, accounting for 94.5% of the total domestic smartphone shipments; Based on Beidou’s high-precision lane-level navigation function, it has been successfully piloted in 8 cities, and gradually spread to the whole country … Beidou application has been deeply integrated into the overall situation of national economic development, and has become the cornerstone of time and space and an important engine to promote economic and social development.
