On September 26, the 2021 World Internet Conference Wuzhen Summit opened in Wuzhen, Tongxiang City, Zhejiang Province. President Xi Jinping sent a congratulatory letter to the General Assembly and stressed: "China is willing to work with all countries in the world to shoulder the historical responsibility of making progress for mankind, stimulate the vitality of the digital economy, enhance the effectiveness of the digital government, optimize the digital social environment, build a pattern of digital cooperation, build a solid digital security screen, let the digital civilization benefit the people of all countries, and promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind."
Digital economy is the future development direction of the world. President Xi Jinping has a deep insight into the development trend of human society, pointing out the way forward for us to actively promote the deep integration of the digital economy and production and life, and also contributing to the Chinese program for the international community to jointly move towards a new era of digital civilization, which will strongly promote the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, President Xi Jinping has always attached great importance to the development of the digital economy and made a series of major decisions and arrangements. From "Internet+" action, national big data strategy, smart city and other specific measures, to accelerating the construction of new infrastructure such as 5G and artificial intelligence, and to the strategic plan of "accelerating the promotion of digital industrialization" in the 14th Five Year Plan, we continue to expand new space for economic development, and new technologies, new industries, new formats and new models emerge in endlessly, The position of digital economy in the national economy is constantly improving, becoming a new engine of economic growth.
At present, the century long change and the century epidemic are intertwined, and a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial reform are accelerating. During the epidemic, the digital economy, such as telemedicine, online office and online retail, has been comprehensively accelerated, which has become an important highlight of the global economic recovery. At the same time, countries are actively participating in the new round of global digital economy layout, and the competition in key core technology fields is becoming increasingly fierce; Global digital economy governance is also facing new challenges, with prominent issues such as platform monopoly, cross-border data flow, data security, and data property rights. Facing the future, only by working together to build a community of shared future in cyberspace can countries cross the digital divide, jump out of the zero sum game trap, and move together towards a new era of digital civilization to enhance the well-being of all mankind.
In recent years, China's digital economy, especially the Internet industry, has flourished, not only developing itself, but also benefiting the world. At the same time, we should also be aware that there is still a gap between China and the international advanced level in chip, software and other digital technology "hard core", and the risks and hidden dangers faced by the external environment are increasing. We should not only adhere to the self-reliance and self-improvement of high-level science and technology, deeply implement the innovation driven development strategy, improve the self controllable ability of the industrial chain supply chain, but also deepen international cooperation in the field of digital economy, actively participate in the formulation of global digital economy governance rules, support the construction of a new development pattern, and firmly grasp the initiative of development.
A wise man plans according to the time. Let us continue to adhere to the concept of building a community with a shared future for mankind, conform to the historical trend of the new era of digital civilization, work hand in hand, and work together to promote the great development and prosperity of the global digital economy, so that all mankind can share the dividends of development, and make new contributions to creating a better world.
