Economic Daily:
We all know that, at the annual WIC, the issuance of blue books and the Wuzhen Outlook are important achievements attracting wide attention from all sides. I would like to ask Mr. Liu, what kind of content will there be in this year's blue books and the Wuzhen Outlook, and what innovations can we expect compared with previous years? Thank you.
Liu Liehong:
Thank you for your questions. The China Internet Development Report and The World Internet Development Report, which are what everyone calls the blue books of the conference, as well as the Wuzhen Outlook, are indeed important achievements of the WIC and generate great interest both domestically and abroad.
The China Internet Development Report 2019 will review and summarize the development of the internet in China in the past 25 years, with a focus on the latest progress, achievements and trends of China's internet development in 2019, systematically presenting China's vivid experience and innovative practices in the accelerated progress from being a major cyber power to a strong one.
The World Internet Development Report 2019 will review the development of the internet in the past 50 years since its birth, analyze and evaluate the global network development trends in 2019, and summarize the vivid practices and actual outcomes achieved by major countries pushing forward development of the Internet in 2019, and analyze and interpret them, while trying hard to provide new ideas and intellectual support for continued development.
The Wuzhen Outlook 2019 will elaborate the outstanding contribution of the internet to the progress and development of human society, analyze the opportunities and challenges brought about by its development, and look forward to the beautiful vision that the international community can jointly promote the prosperity and development of the internet. Compared with previous years, there are three major aspects of innovation this year:
The first is to review the historical achievements of internet development. This year, we have added two chapters of "World Internet Development in the Past 50 Years" and "China Internet Development in the Past 25 Years" to the blue books being issued. They briefly review the developments of the worldwide internet and the China internet respectively, and set forth the profound impact of both on humanity, and how the internet brings historical opportunities for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.
The second is to look forward to future development trends. The blue books systematically analyze the opportunities and challenges brought about by internet development, and the outlook for actively using and further developing the internet, demonstrating our firm confidence in its bright prospects.
The third is to optimize the indicator system for internet development assessment. The indicator system adopted in the two reports this year has further improved the basic structure, optimized the algorithm model, expanded the evaluation scope, strengthened data collection, and enhanced the indicator system's authority, scientificity and accuracy. Especially in the China Internet Development Report 2019, we have added top-10 rankings for sub-entry evaluation indexes in six aspects covering infrastructure evaluation, innovation capabilities, digital economy development, internet applications, cyber-security and cyber-governance, providing reference and examples for various places that are promoting the development of the internet. Thank you.
