Wang Jiangping, former Vice Minister of Industry and Information Technology, delivered a speech titled "Problems and Countermeasures in Converting AI Scientific Discoveries into Productive Forces," providing an in-depth analysis of the current "quagmire"困境 facing the conversion of AI scientific discovery成果. While AI prediction成果 are growing exponentially, experimental verification and industrialization capabilities are only improving linearly, creating a vast chasm between the two. Wang analyzed the root causes, including推理 limitations in prediction models, a lack of unified evaluation standards, insufficient adaptability in experimental verification systems, and a shortage of复合型 talent. To address this, he proposed strengthening the construction of an evaluation standard system for AI prediction results, accelerating the modularization and open-source development of autonomous AI laboratories, strengthening pilot-scale platforms and scenario applications, and promoting collaboration between academia and industry to cultivate more "Pasteur's Quadrant researchers," aiming for a systematic breakthrough in conversion bottlenecks to efficiently turn AI scientific discoveries into real productive forces.
Ma Naichao, Consultant and General Commander of the Stability Production Committee of Tianma Microelectronics Group, delivered a speech titled "New Thinking on Quality – Exploration and Practice of High-Quality Development," systematically sharing a new quality management paradigm centered on "Stability Production." Stability Production is a preventive management approach based on safety and rooted in employees, with its core being "doing everything possible to treat employees well." By boosting employee morale, strictly implementing standard operations, and迅速处置 abnormalities, it aims to achieve the continuous production of 100%良品 required by customers. Tianma views Stability Production as the foundation for smart manufacturing and卓越运营, and through practices like job observation, change point management, and a five-step method for preventing recurrence, it turns quality into a competitive operational advantage, striving to make "human capital" the core competitiveness of the enterprise and lead the high-quality development of Chinese manufacturing.
Shi Jun, Executive Director of Airland Group, shared the company's sixty-year journey of坚守ing实业 and continuously innovating in a speech titled "Casting Quality with Craftsmanship, Leading the Future with Innovation." Since its founding in 1966, Airland has always深耕ed quality with a spirit of craftsmanship, earning the reputation as the "Whampoa Military Academy" of China's mattress industry by introducing advanced international equipment and promoting industry-wide technology sharing. In recent years, the Group has actively promoted smart manufacturing upgrades, investing in and building the Huizhou Industrial Intelligent Manufacturing Park to achieve fully automated production processes.同时, based on the physique and culture of Eastern populations, it has undertaken a "second invention" of mattresses and collaborated with cultural IPs like "National Treasure," embedding products with Eastern aesthetics and wisdom. In the future, Airland will continue to坚守 its实业根基, drive development through innovation, and work with industry peers to jointly promote the high-quality development of the home furnishings industry.
Chen Dengkun, General Manager of Shenzhen Qianhai Baidi Network Co., Ltd., shared the innovative evolution and AI implementation practices of Kuaidi100 over fifteen years in his speech. He proposed an "AI-led Innovation Methodology," with a core path of "Edge-Cloud Collaboration + Two Combinations + MCP-ization" – integrating mainstream large models in the cloud to launch native applications like "AI寄快递," and adapting to HarmonyOS and AI phones on the device side to achieve "service finding people"; combining AI with data to build an industry digital-intelligent knowledge graph for smart delivery time estimation, and combining AI with scenarios to launch AI applications for checking, sending, managing, and customer service;同时 promoting the upgrade from traditional APIs to the MCP protocol, lowering the barrier to invocation, and supporting the automatic discovery and invocation of智能体s. As a global one-stop digital-intelligent service platform for express logistics, Kuaidi100 will continue to drive the industry's intelligentization process with AI, reshaping the logistics service experience and industrial ecosystem.
Song Ge, Chief Editor of Phoenix Net Shenzhen and specially appointed expert of the China Advertising Association AI High-Quality Language Data Think Tank, pointed out in his speech titled "From Search Engines to Large Models: Seizing the Initiative in Brand Cognitive Rights in the AI Era" that AI large models are重塑ing brand marketing logic, with the competitive focus shifting from "competing for user attention" to "competing for AI cognitive rights." With AI becoming the core information gateway, "having a good product is not enough; AI must also say you are good." Brands need to systematically build their own "AI textbook" – namely, a high-quality brand language data corpus. Through structured content like identity definition, value proposition, and usage scenarios, they can enable AI to accurately understand, remember, and actively recommend the brand, thereby securing a优先 position in the consumer decision-making chain. Song believes that high-quality language data has become a strategic brand asset in the AI era and is key to winning the three major opportunities of "being consulted, being recommended, and being trusted."
