On February 21-22, the 2019 Industrial Internet Summit, guided by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and jointly organized by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, the Industrial Internet Industry Alliance, and the China Institute of Communications, was held in Beijing. The summit, themed "Intelligent Connectivity Empowers Integration and Innovation," showcased the latest trends, key technologies, and industrial directions of the industrial internet. It invited about 3,000 experts, scholars, and industry representatives from various fields to discuss the technological, industrial development directions, and application innovation models of the industrial internet. At the Industrial Internet Technology Innovation and Industrial Development Forum on the 22nd, He Jun, Vice President of TCL Holdings and CEO of GETECH Technology Co., Ltd., delivered a speech titled "Manufacturing X AI, Unleashing the Innovation and Development Potential of Manufacturing," sharing GETECH's understanding and practices in the innovative development of the industrial internet.

He Jun stated that 2019 is jokingly called the worst year of the past decade and possibly the best year of the next decade. However, he believes that 2019 marks the beginning of a new and exciting decade for China's manufacturing industry. Facing changes in internal and external markets and consumer demands, manufacturing enterprises need to continuously refine themselves, further achieve the goals of reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and improving quality to accomplish transformation and upgrading. Using a leading semiconductor display enterprise as an example, He Jun vividly illustrated the contradictions and challenges faced by frontline production managers: although the factory's capacity is already overloaded, with a yield rate as high as 97%, nearly reaching the industry's极限, it still faces increasingly stringent quality requirements from customers and immense pressure to reduce operational costs. To address these challenges, GETECH organized a team integrating business and technology, introducing industrial internet-related application technologies such as IoT, big data, and AI, and carried out multiple project practices.

He Jun emphasized that even top manufacturing enterprises with high levels of automation and informatization face various difficulties and challenges when implementing the industrial internet. The key is to achieve the integration of OT and IT. He suggested that enterprises focus on quantifying and standardizing OT business logic, ensuring the completeness and comprehensiveness of data, and cultivating engineers'思维方式 and skills. He Jun believes that the development of the industrial internet should pay more attention to respecting business rules, starting from customer value, and better addressing customer pain points; it should respect the industrial site, proceed from an industrial operations perspective, and make products more aligned with the actual needs of enterprises; finally, it should promote better integration of IT and OT teams, driven by management innovation, reversing the traditional 20-30-50 principle of IT projects—spending 50% of the time on梳理 and reconstructing the entire business scenario, 30% on model debugging, correction, and factor reorganization, and 20% on system development—to truly achieve integration and openness, unleashing the innovation and development potential of manufacturing.

TCL is a pioneer in the internationalization of China's manufacturing industry, with a complete industrial chain and nearly four decades of manufacturing experience. The industrial technology and smart manufacturing capabilities accumulated over the years hold significant value for most domestic manufacturing enterprises. As a manufacturing technology enterprise incubated by TCL and rooted in production, GETECH originates from and is deeply embedded in manufacturing. It will continue to致力于 deeply integrating cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), big data, and cloud computing with manufacturing industry experience, building an industry-leading "Manufacturing X" industrial internet platform. Based on this platform, it will implement various industrial applications, forming locally innovative smart manufacturing scenario-based solutions, providing advanced management IT services for manufacturing, and supporting the transformation and upgrading of Chinese manufacturing.
