Frost & Sullivan is invited to attend the NIXT China Summit, discussing digital transformation and upgrading of traditional enterprises
Frost & Sullivan is invited to attend the NIXT China Summit, discussing digital transformation and upgrading of traditional enterprises
NIXT China Summit
In the past few years, there have been tremendous breakthroughs in the technology sector. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, metaverse, 5G, blockchain, Internet of Things, AR/VR have brought new opportunities and momentum, and the wave of digital transformation is spreading across all industries. Using emerging technologies has become a development key point that every enterprise must consider and prioritize. How can enterprises quickly grasp emerging technologies to drive their own business digital transformation? How can they explore markets through emerging technologies and establish new business models?
From July 19th to 21st, 2023, the NIXT China Summit was successfully held at the National Convention Center in Beijing. The conference focused deeply on emerging technologies, connecting all stakeholders in enterprise digital transformation, and conducted exchanges and discussions on six vertical industries: artificial intelligence, smart cities, finance, advanced manufacturing, logistics, and retail, providing assistance for industry and enterprise digital transformation.
Frost & Sullivan (Frost & Sullivan, abbreviated as "Frost & Sullivan") was invited to attend the conference.
According to the "China Data Element Market Development Report (2021-2022)" by the China Industry and Information Security Administration, enterprises that achieve digitization can maintain a 41.2% increase in business growth, a 42.8% increase in production efficiency, and a 15.3% reduction in product research and development cycles. With the acceleration of the wheels of the digital economy era, the gap between leading and lagging digital enterprises will continue to widen. Enterprise digital transformation is inevitable, not an option. Digitization is an important lever to help traditional enterprises transform into new forms and an inevitable choice to support the strategic development of companies. Enterprises should leverage digital technology to build unique competitiveness and disrupt existing markets with new products and services.
The development of information and communication technology and industrial technology has continuously promoted the continuous growth and expansion of China's digital economy. China is experiencing a new wave of digital transformation. Currently, developing the digital economy has been elevated to the level of national strategy, with the State Council and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology successively introducing favorable policies to promote enterprise digital transformation, such as the "14th Five-Year Plan" which clearly states the goal of "creating new advantages in the digital economy." At the same time, Enterprises are also achieving digital transformation by continuously increasing IT investment. In 2022, Chinese enterprises' IT expenditure reached $345.53 billion, and it is expected to continue growing steadily in the future, with China's IT expenditure expected to reach $460.64 billion by 2027.
In addition, with the continuous decline in birth rates combined with an increase in average life expectancy, China has entered a moderately aging society. The increasing aging rate and the gradual decrease in the proportion of working-age population have led to an increase in labor costs in China's manufacturing industry. As a tool to reduce the demand for the number of workers during production and improve quality and efficiency, the demand for digital transformation technology will increase accordingly. It is expected that in the future, as China's aging problem deepens further, the proportion of working-age population in China will continue to show a downward trend.
Digital technology has penetrated into all aspects of social and economic life, and the new economy will become an important support point for economic growth. In the face of the wave of digital economic development, it is necessary for China to seize development opportunities, drive the transformation of traditional industries, promote high-quality economic development, build a new development pattern, and achieve the rise of a great nation.
According to Frost & Sullivan research, looking at the current digital transformation status of major industries in China, the service industry currently has the highest penetration rate of digitization. Since the tertiary industry has always been a key area of digital transformation, its level of digitization and speed of digital transformation rank first among the three major industries, far higher than the digitization process of agriculture and industry. In the future, the pace of digitization in agriculture and industry will accelerate. With the maturity of 5G infrastructure, combined with the integration of new infrastructure such as industrial Internet, Internet of Things, and cloud computing from pilot construction to integrated applications, digital technology will penetrate deep into the tertiary industry, while accelerating its penetration into the secondary and primary industries, with development dividends expected to radiate into sub-sectors such as smart factories, smart energy, and smart agriculture.
However, it should be noted that although the current digital transformation penetration rate in China has been comprehensively improved, there is still a dilemma of high failure rates, making successful digital transformation for Chinese enterprises a long and arduous journey. The main problems at this stage are manifested in the lack of systematic and holistic awareness of digital transformation among enterprises, the lack of a systematic transformation framework that prevents them from implementing digital strategies, and the lack of effective measurement mechanisms.
Enterprises' digital transformation mainly includes the construction of digital cultural organizations and digital technology platforms. Successful digital enterprises rely on a complete strategy, through more agile business processes, interconnected platforms, analysis tools, and collaboration capabilities to improve production efficiency, thereby achieving a more lean and agile operational model.
For example, digital procurement is an important means to help enterprises reduce costs and increase efficiency, and accumulate core data assets. Compared with traditional offline procurement, the platform-based procurement model has prominent advantages, as it can present procurement information in a data form, reducing procurement costs and featuring high efficiency and transparency; digital supply chains can integrate and optimize enterprise supply chains, covering multiple links from suppliers to end-users, including raw material procurement, production, warehousing, logistics, sales, etc. By improving upstream and downstream supply chain relationships and integrating and optimizing information flow, logistics, capital flow, etc. in the supply chain, enterprises can enhance their competitive advantage.
In summary, enterprise digital transformation is not only a trend but also an inevitable choice for enterprises to improve competitiveness and development. Digital transformation will lead enterprises into the future.

Bullets Finance | Frost & Sullivan: The top priority for emerging beauty brands is to build a unique, solid, and stable product 'moat'
Bullets Finance | Frost & Sullivan: The top priority for emerging beauty brands is to build a unique, solid, and stable product 'moat' Data shows, this year 618 During this period, the transaction scale of the beauty and skincare market in comprehensive e-commerce slightly decreased year-on-year 2.3% ; Live e-commerce has witnessed rapid growth, especially on Douyin 618 The transaction volume of beauty products during this period exceeded 156 Yuan, a year-on-year increase 69% Specifically, on the comprehensive e-commerce platform, Perlane has maintained a Tmall ranking for two consecutive years 618 beauty and skin care Top 5 , rose to the number 4 Name, overwhelming OLAY Traditional leading brands; Vichy remains at the top this year 10 Name location. 2022 In [year], on the Taobao and Tmall platforms alone, eight major domestic brands achieved a scale breakthrough 10 Yuan, emerging brand Zhibenhe HBN (YoY growth exceeds 80% ) are among them.
In the domestic beauty market, in addition to leading brands holding their ground, emerging domestic brands are gradually developing and growing, participating in competition with first-tier brands at home and abroad. Frost & Sullivan Frost & Sullivan Wu Yunhan, a consumer industry analyst at Frost & Sullivan in Greater China (hereinafter referred to as 'Frost & Sullivan'), was interviewed by Bullet Finance to discuss the development of emerging domestic beauty brands.

Bullet Finance
Q
In the past two years, in addition to leading domestic beauty brands, many new entrants have also achieved explosive growth. For example, Zhiben. HBN such as Grain Rain, 2022 The annual transaction volume of Tmall beauty products is at 10 For brands worth over 100 million yuan, apart from KuaDi under Huaxi Biology, there are also Zhiben. HBN The year-on-year growth rate is expected to be at 60% , 80% Above. This year 618 , HBN Gu Yu has entered the Douyin skincare category Top 20 The list includes brands with transaction volumes exceeding those of big names such as Jiao Yun Shi and Kie Yan Shi. How do emerging domestic brands view their rapid rise? What factors have contributed to these brands achieving faster growth rates than leading brands? Does the rise of emerging brands have reference value for the development of the domestic beauty market?
The rise of domestic brands is, on the one hand, due to the market opportunities unleashed by trillion-dollar beauty products in China. On the other hand, through 20 After years of refining and accumulation in the foundational layer, domestic beauty products have evolved from ensuring product safety to emphasizing efficacy. At the same time, the changing consumption concepts of new-generation consumers have also broadened the imagination space for domestic beauty products.
Growth drivers:
1 The intergenerational migration of consumer groups is the underlying logic behind the rise of domestic brands and beauty products. As Z As the era enters the beauty consumption market, its personalization and confidence in local brands are also driving a reshaping of the beauty industry landscape. Consumers are increasingly pursuing high quality and cost-effective products when facing Chinese brands. This has inspired domestic brands to establish their own sense of quality in product research and development and promotion, continuously enhancing their reputation to win more consumer favor.
2 In the mature market of beauty and skincare, there are many existing market participants with high competition. Domestic brands have made certain upgrades and transformations to traditional brands through new consumer group selection, new market positioning, product innovation, new scenarios, and new communication channels. For example, 'Perfect Diary' has made intensive marketing investments on new media channels, accumulating a large number of high-quality user reviews and brand word-of-mouth in terms of creative design, placement management, post- on data feedback, or refined platform operations.
3 In mature consumer categories with high market demand and fierce competition, domestic brands choose to avoid competition within broad categories and instead enter into niche segments. At the same time, these niche segments lack strong brands, providing certain development space for emerging brands. Brands wait until the niche segments mature before expanding into other categories to build brand awareness. For example, domestic beauty brands such as Poreless, Vichy, and Huarun Biotech follow the strategy of international big brands with large product lines, gradually driving up sales, average order value, and brand recognition through core products. The most typical examples are Poreless' Ruby series and Vichy's Special Care Cream.
The rise of emerging brands holds certain reference value for the development of domestic beauty and skincare markets:
1 Looking at the entire market, z Generations are becoming the main force in consumption, and brand operation capabilities are particularly important. Among them, the domestic beauty brand "Zhuben," which focuses on the makeup remover market, has caught up with the favorable trend of live e-commerce in terms of omnichannel operation capabilities. It became popular on Li Jiaqi's live streaming channel. They also seized the opportunity of optimizing the e-commerce distribution system and penetrated into 100 Multiple stores have completed the deployment of their distribution system, and at the same time, brand accounts on other short video platform channels have been established and are being fully rolled out across all channels.
2 Another current trend is the rise of the functional skincare market, HFP As the first skincare brand in China to focus on the concept of original extracts (single high-concentration skincare ingredient essences), it has quickly gained the favor of ingredient enthusiasts. With the continuous growth in consumers' demand for professional efficacy and the catalysis brought about by channel development, we believe that functional skincare is expected to continue to be an important driving force for the overall high growth of domestic cosmetics in the future.
3 In recent years, domestic beauty brands have also been expanding their brand footprint through investments, acquisitions, and other means. As domestic beauty brands develop to a certain stage, they are also planning to enter the high-end market and establish a multi-brand development strategy. Brands like 'Perfect Diary', which are familiar to many, are examples of this. 2021 In 2019, it acquired a skincare brand targeting the high-end market Eve Lom The average unit price is mostly around four or five hundred to a thousand yuan.
Q
2022 Since [start year], the beauty market has been overall declining. The market recovery this year has also fallen short of expectations. Online traffic has peaked, and competition in the efficacy skincare sector has become increasingly fierce. In this context, for emerging domestic beauty brands, is there still an opportunity to catch up with first-tier brands? What problems exist? Are there any brands that are more promising?
In recent years, emerging beauty brands have ridden on the wave of traffic dividends and, with the support of various capitals, used new thinking and marketing strategies to re-run major professional sub-sectors across new channels and media, making rapid progress. However, as capital gradually leaves, traffic dividends disappear, competition intensifies, and traffic costs become increasingly high. Emerging brands have not yet built a strong product moat and their brand effect has not yet materialized, posing significant challenges at this time. To become a brand, the top priority for emerging beauty brands is to create a unique, solid, and stable product moat.
Currently, the entire new and emerging domestic beauty industry still lacks in terms of product strength, research and development, and core technologies. Although powerful cosmetic brands can acquire other brands and factories by purchasing them, it is difficult to simply invest money in acquiring core technologies, as the root cause lies in the scarcity of industry R&D talent. New brands aiming to build a moat and develop exclusive core technologies should 'trace back upstream' and innovate with new raw materials and technologies.
Recently, I've been paying attention to the skincare brand "Runbailan" under Huaxi Biotech. This year 618 "Acceleration" has been achieved. According to data released by brands and major platforms, this year 618 During this period, we achieved over 3.56 Yuan billion, an increase compared with the same period last year 54 % thanks to Huaxi Biology 20 With years of research and development in hyaluronic acid, "Runbailian" has always endowed the product with unique competitive advantages, achieving trend-setting leadership in the hyaluronic acid market through innovation and differentiation 10 In the year, we adhered to the market strategy of developing major products, laying the foundation for the emerging market of sublimated essence and bringing more possibilities to future development.

Caixin Business News | Frost & Sullivan: Operational efficiency and equipment risks of power generation companies increase the uncertainty of power production and supply
Caixin Business News | Frost & Sullivan: Operational efficiency and equipment risks of power generation companies increase the uncertainty of power production and supply The persistently high temperatures have suddenly made power generation during the peak summer season a hot topic of public discussion. 7 month 6 On the same day, Beijing issued its first high-temperature red alert signal for this summer, while power consumption loads in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces both exceeded their limits 1 1000 million kilowatts, earlier than last year 19 sky, 8 sky.
Research reports show, 2023 year 4 In recent years, the power generation volume in Yunnan Province has been at a relatively low level. If the power supply situation in Yunnan continues to be tight, what impacts will it have on Guangdong's power supply and spot electricity market prices? The industry expects 2023 During the peak summer season of 2023, the power supply and demand situation in East China, Central China, and South China is relatively tight. Based on this forecast of the power consumption situation, what are the main factors that are causing disruptions to the power supply? Frost & Sullivan Frost & Sullivan Xu Biao, Executive Director of Frost & Sullivan's Greater China Region (hereinafter referred to as 'Frost & Sullivan'), was interviewed by 'Cailianlian' to discuss power supply security.

Q
Cailian News Agency Reporter: According to data released by the China Electricity Council, 1 - 5 Monthly hydropower generation of power plants above designated size across the country 3523 1000 million kWh, a year-on-year decrease 19.2% The top three provinces in terms of hydropower generation nationwide are Sichuan, Yunnan, and Hubei, with their combined hydropower generation accounting for 62.8% , with growth rates of -1.5% , -20.8% and -38.4% What's your take on the decline in related data?
1 - 5 The decline in monthly hydropower generation is partly due to the reduced rainfall and less water inflow from major river basins such as the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers this year, resulting in a year-on-year decrease in the cumulative average utilization hours of hydropower generation equipment. 294 hours. On the other hand, it's also due to last year 1 - 5 The main river basins such as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River received relatively abundant rainfall, resulting in a relatively large amount of hydropower generation. Comparing this year with last year 1 - 5 Monthly hydropower generation has seen a significant decline.
Q
Cailian News Agency Reporter: Cross-regional coordination and mutual assistance in the power market have become one of the methods to ensure power supply. Taking 'Cloud Power Transmission to Guangdong' as an example, Yunnan Province contributes nearly 70% of the power received outside Guangdong Province ( 2022 Annual data). Research reports show, 2023 year 4 In recent years, Yunnan Province's power generation has been at a relatively low level. It was only after reducing the consumption within the province and lowering the amount of electricity sent out that the power supply and demand were balanced. 6 - 8 The month of January is a seasonal peak in electricity consumption in Guangdong Province, which will lead to a sharp increase in the demand for power transmission from Yunnan. If Yunnan's power supply continues to be tight in the future, what impacts will it have on Guangdong's power supply and spot electricity market prices?
If the water inflow during the flood season does not increase as expected and the power generation from hydropower in Yunnan does not increase sufficiently, Guangdong's power supply will still face considerable pressure. In the short term, the tight power supply situation in Guangdong Province still needs to be addressed through measures such as increasing inter-provincial mutual assistance within the Southern Power Grid, coordinating with the State Grid for full support, and increasing the supply of thermal coal and gas within Yunnan Province to regulate the operation of thermal power units. In the long run, expanding the installed capacity and power supply within Guangdong Province, especially the supply capabilities of wind and photovoltaic power generation, also requires accelerating progress.
The price of electricity spot market is mainly related to the net load curve. The net load curve is the total load curve (including domestic and imported electricity, which is relatively regular) minus imported electricity, and it mainly depends on the curve of imported electricity. Currently, for the power transmitted from Yunnan to Guangdong, medium- and long-term agreements are still signed. If the power supply from Yunnan to Guangdong is insufficient, it will drive up the price of electricity spot market.
Q
Cailian News Agency Reporter: Industry estimates 2023 During the peak summer season of 2023, the power supply and demand situation in East China, Central China, and the South is relatively tight. Based on this forecast of electricity consumption trends, which factors do you believe are mainly causing disruptions to power supply?
Multiple factors such as macroeconomic growth, rapid recovery of industrial production, and high temperatures have led to increased power demand, putting considerable pressure on power supply.
In terms of power supply, uncertainties exist in precipitation and the stability of wind and solar resources, which affect the utilization hours of major power sources such as hydropower, wind power, and photovoltaic power. In addition, power generation enterprises also increase the uncertainty of power production and supply in terms of operational efficiency and equipment risks.

Q
From the perspective of economic development, what do you think AI How profound will the revolution have an impact on China's economy and capital market, as well as on productivity? / What is the impact on production efficiency? Is it ultimately possible to significantly increase the profitability of listed companies?
Witnessing the drive by artificial intelligence AlphaGo Defeating the world Go champion and last year ChatGPT After its sudden emergence, the phenomenonally explosive popularity of artificial intelligence has become an important milestone in the history of human civilization development. Similarly, this revolution driven by artificial intelligence will also have a profound impact on China's economy and capital market.
Firstly, artificial intelligence will significantly improve China's productivity, and the enhancement of production efficiency is gradually upgrading from perceptual intelligence to cognitive intelligence. Perceptual intelligence refers to the ability of computers and different devices to possess human-like perceptual abilities such as vision, hearing, and touch. By structuring and processing multi-source heterogeneous data and communicating with humans through these abilities, the efficiency improvements brought about by perceptual intelligence are already quite common in our daily lives, including face recognition in various scenarios and interactions with digital humans. Cognitive intelligence, on the other hand, draws inspiration from brain-like research and cognitive science based on perceptual intelligence. It combines cross-disciplinary knowledge graphs and other technologies to endow computers and different devices with human-like thinking and cognitive abilities. It is expected that with large-scale pre-trained language models and similar ChatGPT As the products continue to mature, the efficiency improvements brought about by cognitive intelligence will become more widespread.
Secondly, in the long run, the efficiency improvements brought about by artificial intelligence will lead to a transformation in China's labor force structure. Perceptual intelligence will replace low-skilled jobs to a certain extent (including security, telephone customer service, etc.), and such transformations have already been evident in China's business environment. Cognitive intelligence will replace repetitive skill jobs that require simple mental effort to a certain extent (including translation, graphic design, etc.).
Finally, from the perspective of its impact on the capital market, the improvement in labor efficiency and structural transformation of the workforce will be reflected in the capital market. Capital will flow into sectors and enterprises that have the greatest development potential, the most positive impact on human civilization, and that align with the direction of national policy formulation in this artificial intelligence revolution.
The impact on production efficiency is certain. As mentioned earlier, artificial intelligence technologies based on perceptual and cognitive intelligence will continuously improve the efficiency of different tasks. From the perspective of cost reduction and efficiency enhancement brought about by artificial intelligence, it will effectively help listed companies reduce operating costs, including sales expenses and management fees, thereby improving the net profit performance of listed companies and having a positive impact on listed enterprises and the entire capital market.
Q
China's development AI What major obstacles or challenges may be encountered in technology? In terms of policy, will China introduce a continuous stream of significant policies to drive this forward in the future?
From a technical perspective, computing power, as an important infrastructure for the development of artificial intelligence, especially during the recent phase of concentrated development of large-scale pre-trained language models, has reached a certain level of demand in China. Moreover, the development of computing power will directly affect the level of advancement of artificial intelligence technology in our country. Data is the key to algorithm models, especially when developing large-scale language models, special attention needs to be paid to issues related to personal information protection, including data sources, data processing, data security, and bias induction. Taking models from leading foreign manufacturers as an example, CodeBert , LAMDA Subsequently, there have been revelations of biased, discriminatory, or inappropriate content, including derogatory remarks towards certain groups or distortions in the content or timing of certain topics. The occurrence of such issues is often due to data sources, and the quality of the data sources largely determines the excellence of the model.
From a policy perspective, there is no doubt that China's encouragement for the development of artificial intelligence is substantial. 2017 The "New Generation Artificial Intelligence Development Plan" issued by the State Council in [year] specifically mentions 2025 In the coming year, major breakthroughs should be made in the basic theories of artificial intelligence. Some technologies and applications should reach world-leading levels. Artificial intelligence should become the main driving force for industrial upgrading and economic transformation in China. Active progress should be made in the construction of an intelligent society. It is particularly proposed that the scale of the core artificial intelligence industry should exceed 4,000 Yuan, driving the scale of related industries to exceed 5 trillion yuan; by 2030 In 2023, the overall theory, technology, and application of artificial intelligence should reach the world's leading level, becoming a major global center for artificial intelligence innovation. The intelligent economy and society should achieve significant results, laying an important foundation for China to rank among the forefront of innovative countries and become an economic powerhouse. Among these, the scale of the core artificial intelligence industry should exceed 1 trillion yuan, driving the scale of related industries to exceed 10 trillion yuan.
In addition, in response to the specific challenges mentioned earlier, our country has also introduced a series of development policies. Taking 'East Data West Computing' as an example: 2021 year 5 month 24 On the same day, four ministries and commissions jointly issued the "Implementation Plan for the National Integrated Big Data Center Collaborative Innovation System Computing Power Hub," proposing the layout and construction of national integrated computing power network hub nodes, accelerating the implementation of the "East Data West Computing" project. Further network transmission channels will be opened up between national hub nodes to improve cross-regional computing power scheduling levels. Exploration and practice in cloud computing services, data circulation, data applications, security assurance, etc., will be strengthened to play a demonstrative and leading role, providing important assistance in solving China's computing power needs for artificial intelligence.
Q
What significant challenges and opportunities will traditional Chinese internet giants face?
In fact, during the development of artificial intelligence in our country, traditional Chinese internet giants (which are what we commonly refer to as Alibaba, Baidu, Tencent, Douyin Group, and JD.com) have not been absent. They have even become important participants in the infrastructure and application aspects of artificial intelligence in our country.
Take Baidu as an example, 2018 Announced in “ All In AI After the strategic launch, Baidu has taken the lead in delivering a remarkable result in this year's large-scale language model competition. Although there is still room for improvement compared to foreign models, as a domestic vendor, it has made up for the shortcomings of foreign models in the Chinese language corpus environment. Baidu's Wenxin Large Model can generate excellent works for different fields based on different keyword and scenario requirements. For example, it can generate a beautiful painting by inputting a sentence or a description of text. 2022 year 7 In January, the Wenyang-textile-textile Large Model "completed" the missing scroll of the world-famous painting "The Song of Rich Spring," and also composed a poem, which elicited exclamations from everyone.
After Baidu released the Wenxin Large Model, Alibaba Cloud also launched a large language model with hundreds of billions of parameters, "Tongyiquanwen" Integrating multimodal knowledge understanding, it possesses strong copywriting capabilities, and these abilities are applied to empower the office collaboration software DingTalk under Alibaba. DAMO Academy, an R&D institution under Alibaba, has always been at the forefront of artificial intelligence technology research in China, dedicated to exploring the unknown through technology and driven by human aspirations, conducting basic scientific research and innovative technology development.
We believe that traditional internet giants have always been actively involved in the development of artificial intelligence in our country and will continue to be at the forefront of technological development.

Securities Daily | Frost & Sullivan executive: Central enterprises' active layout of strategic emerging industries is conducive to forming a virtuous development cycle
Securities Daily | Frost & Sullivan executive: Central enterprises' active layout of strategic emerging industries is conducive to forming a virtuous development cycle Recently, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology stated that it is making forward-looking arrangements for artificial intelligence, Web3.0 Advanced computing, 6G In the future, industries will develop new competitiveness on new tracks. Central enterprises have established nearly 500 The home focus is mainly on strategic emerging industries such as new-generation information technology and artificial intelligence. Currently, central enterprises have made outstanding achievements in deploying into strategic emerging industries, most recently 5 The average annual growth rate of investment in strategic emerging industries exceeds 20% . Meanwhile, since the beginning of this year, the concept of China Special Economic Zone (SEZ) valuation has been hot, with central enterprise valuations rapidly returning to normal.
Why does the state strongly encourage central enterprises to develop strategic emerging industries? In the context of exploring the establishment of a Sino-foreign joint venture valuation model, how can the layout of strategic emerging industries positively impact the valuation of central enterprises? Which emerging industry tracks are expected to be the first to embrace development opportunities? Frost & Sullivan Frost & Sullivan Lu Jing, Partner and Managing Director of Frost & Sullivan's Greater China Region, was interviewed by Securities Daily to discuss the layout and development of strategic emerging industries.

Q
Securities Daily Reporter: What are the advantages of central enterprises in developing strategic emerging industries?
Central enterprises possess characteristics such as high concentration, efficiency, large industrial scale, and significant influence. From the perspective of the capital market, central enterprises can assist in the national development of strategic emerging industries through two main methods. Firstly, central enterprises can improve the rapid layout of strategic emerging industries through mergers and reorganizations. By merging and reorganizing, they can accelerate the establishment of leading enterprises in emerging industries, thereby increasing industrial concentration and more effectively creating a complete industrial development environment. Secondly, central enterprises can also play a role in financing, raising funds for the development of strategic emerging industries through multiple channels such as issuing stocks or bonds, providing strong financial support for central enterprises to accelerate the development of strategic emerging industries.
Overall, state-owned assets and central enterprises can concentrate funds and personnel to help form large-scale industrial clusters, thereby accelerating the overall layout of industries and improving the development environment. Therefore, it is of great significance that the state is currently strongly encouraging central enterprises to vigorously develop strategic emerging industries.
Q
Securities Daily Reporter: In the context of exploring the establishment of a Sino-Tibetan economic integration assessment, what positive role does the layout of strategic emerging industries play in enhancing the valuation of central enterprises?
The Sino-Tsinghua Enterprise Evaluation (STE) can effectively address the reality that state-owned enterprises have been undervalued for a long time. Unlike traditional valuation systems, the STE system reduces its focus on the profitability of enterprises themselves and places more emphasis on improving the efficiency of profitability.
State-owned assets enterprises are vigorously deploying in strategic emerging industries. With the continuous catalytic promotion of policies, these emerging industries show obvious growth potential, thereby increasing expectations for the profitability efficiency of state-owned central enterprises. This will have a positive effect on enhancing the valuation of central enterprises. By raising the valuation level of central enterprises, more market funds are attracted into them, providing financial support for the development of central enterprises themselves. Central enterprises then feed back and assist in the development of emerging industries, thus forming a virtuous development cycle.
Q
Securities Daily Reporter: According to the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC), a package of policies to support the development of strategic emerging industries by central enterprises will be introduced. Against this backdrop, which emerging industry tracks are expected to be the first to embrace development opportunities?
State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission 2 month and 5 Since [month], several policies have been introduced to promote the development of emerging industries. Against this policy backdrop, industries closely related to national strategies, such as integrated circuits, artificial intelligence, and information technology, will attract more market capital inflows, thereby accelerating the industrial development layout.
Especially, digital technology industries are set to lead the way in embracing new development opportunities. Since digital technology industries can effectively boost the efficient development of other industries, they act as a catalyst for industrial growth. For instance, traditional industries can significantly enhance their analytical and computational capabilities during the equipment R&D process with the superposition and empowerment of new-generation information technology, thereby accelerating R&D innovation efficiency. At the same time, related technologies can also improve the collection and analysis of massive industrial data, promoting quality improvement, efficiency enhancement, and cost reduction in related manufacturing processes. Therefore, digital technology industries, which can help other emerging industries and act as a catalyst, are set to quickly deploy first under policy promotion, attracting development opportunities.
