This report is from Zhongan Online: in the face of the new challenges to economic development brought about by the epidemic, Anhui Province, which is striving to build a source of scientific and technological innovation, is seeking opportunities to open up new tracks in crisis with the advantage of a complete industrial chain in China and the basis of a good innovation first move, and a number of industry enterprises in the global industrial chain are staging "life and death" to enhance their knowledge and adapt to change. The economy is "resistant" and "rebounding".
Change in response to the times to create new supply
Anhui Yuanchen Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. has been ringing on the phone for some time, and many mask companies across the country are seeking to purchase their newly developed mask-specific nano-film.
"Nano film material is more expensive than ordinary meltblown cloth, we did not produce in the past. But the supply of meltblown cloth at the beginning of the epidemic exceeded the demand, and the time was ripe to bring the nano film to the market." Zheng Wenxian, executive vice president of the company, said that based on years of research on filter membrane materials, the company launched nano-film for masks in just one week.
According to the new demand and create new supply, there is Wuhu Youpai Care Products Technology Co.
"The daily production of masks went from 0 to 2 million pieces in just over 40 days." Cheng Gang, chairman of Yopai Technology, said. As one of the larger hygiene products production companies in Anhui Province, Youpai switched to mask production two months ago. Cheng Gang followed the Liaison Officer of Anhui Province Economic and Information Department in the factory to go around, adding and transforming 8 lines of mask equipment. At the same time, Wuhu City organized 8 water treatment filter material enterprises to switch to meltblown cloth to ensure the supply of raw materials at affordable prices.
"A short period of time to develop and produce new products, successful conversion and expansion, behind the advantages of China's manufacturing sector is complete, the industrial system is more complete." Anhui Province Economic and Information Department Director Niu Nutao said.
In the face of the rapid growth of demand in areas such as intelligent medical care and education, KDDI launched a series of new products and services during the epidemic to extend the AI application scenario. In February this year, KDDI urgently attacked the Smart Medical Assistant telephone robot to conduct contactless medical screening of residents, which has followed up 40 million people in the country in two months. For the post-healing tracking management of patients, its developed rehabilitation intelligent escort system covers 533 isolation sites in Hubei Province.
Play a good innovation game to cultivate "stress resistance"
When the epidemic blocked the supply chain and the flow of people in the manufacturing industry, industrial enterprises generally encountered difficulties such as limited capacity and doubled costs. Relying on the "industrial brain" that went online in 2018, Liugoku Chemical, a large phosphate compound fertilizer producer located in Tongling, has maintained its production capacity and cost advantages under the epidemic, with fertilizer sales increasing by 13.92% year-on-year in the first two months of this year.
Liuguo Chemical is an early traditional manufacturing enterprise that uses "Industrial Brain" to achieve digital transformation. Through the application of data on the cloud and intelligent algorithms, the phosphoric acid extraction rate has been increased by 1.2%, saving 6,000 tons of phosphate ore resources annually and increasing economic benefits by 6 million yuan.
In recent years, Anhui Province to innovation first move to live high-quality development of a chessboard, regional innovation capacity for eight consecutive years in the country's first square, manufacturing industry from the low-end to the middle and high-end, economic operation "resistance" enhanced.
In the first two months of this year, Anhui Province, some high-tech, emerging products production and sales growth, including smart watches, smart bracelet production increased by 120%, 70.9% year-on-year. Since the resumption of work of wearable device manufacturer Huami Technology, it has been rapidly restoring product supply for the surge of "health consumption" and increasing the layout of sports and medical health products.
Innovative economic vitality is shown in many industries in Anhui. In Anhui's leading food e-commerce company "Three Squirrels", the company is urgently recruiting 1,000 people due to the rise of online and offline business.
A few years ago, the offline warehouses and experience stores were laid out in the reverse direction from online to ensure smooth logistics during the epidemic; long-term deployment of small teams to discover new food products in the streets and alleys made "creativity" and "freshness" the label of this young enterprise. During the epidemic, the company's sales continued to grow steadily.
Global complementary chain to enhance the "rebound force"
Hefei is one of the few cities in the country that focus on the development of the integrated circuit industry and agglomeration development base. During the epidemic, a number of semiconductor enterprises in Anhui played the role of stable complement to the global supply chain, consolidating their division of labor in the global industry chain.
Memory chips are essential key components for electronic devices. After the resumption of production, major manufacturers expanded procurement and backfill inventory, while foreign suppliers were affected by the epidemic and supply was tight.
In Changxin Storage Technology Co., Ltd, a set of equipment from all over the world is being installed and commissioned in full swing. This is Changxin Storage's memory chip design and manufacturing project to be put into production in 2019, which brings win-win business opportunities to global semiconductor equipment and consumables suppliers.
"The company's products have been verified by the production lines of some head companies, and the production capacity is climbing, with a planned monthly production of 40,000 12-inch wafers this year." Liu Hongyu, executive vice president of Changxin Storage, said.
Hefei Yiswei Material Technology Co., Ltd. produces display chip COF tape, mass production at the end of last year.COF tape used to be mainly produced in South Korea, Japan and other places, the epidemic led to overseas supply disruption. Chen Wenyong, head of the company, said the product has been sent to a number of domestic enterprises for trial, and is expected to increase production in the future to help fill the global industry chain.
The epidemic brings new challenges to the economy, but also brings new opportunities for scientific and technological development, industrial optimization and upgrading. Anhui Province promptly introduced special policies to support the innovative development of 5G and artificial intelligence industries, highlighting the "new online economy", focusing on a number of online "innovative" enterprises, launching a number of online services "application-oriented "application-based" scenarios, and create a number of "online-type" brand products.
Accelerate the resumption of work and production at the same time to seize global opportunities to replenish the chain. Since the Spring Festival, Lianbao (Hefei) Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. has received orders from 126 countries, and the monthly output value in March exceeded 10 billion yuan for the first time.
KDDI's intelligent medical assistant telephone robot was launched in South Korea in March. Chairman Liu Qingfeng said, is targeting the global medical field artificial intelligence applications to increase investment, and strive to occupy an important seat in the global market.
