From June 25 to 27, the Nishan Dialogue on Digital Civilization of the World Internet Conference will be held in Qufu, Jining, Shandong, with the theme of "The Age of Artificial Intelligence: Building a Digital World of Exchange, Mutual Learning and Inclusion".
Shandong has "rituals", while Qilu has "numbers". A dialogue that soars through the clouds and drives through the numbers, an encounter of cultural civilization, a thousand years of contemplation and a thousand miles of vision. Here, we imagine the surging future of human digital civilization. The Book of Documents states: "The scriptures of heaven and earth are called literature, and the sight of the four directions is called brightness.". From the roaring steam engine to the ticking keyboard sound, technology is the driving force of civilization development, and civilization is the direction of technological innovation. Digital economy, intelligent manufacturing, computing chips, industrial Internet, the metauniverse... From "laying the foundation" to "building buildings", from "going from heaven to earth" to "pursuing dreams in deep blue", it is no exaggeration to say that today's digital civilization is the beauty and progress that more than 1.4 billion Chinese people feel.
China is not only an advocate of digital civilization, but also a steadfast and proactive activist. The 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China has made a series of new deployments to accelerate the construction of a strong online country and a digital China. At the end of last year, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Overall Layout Plan for the Construction of Digital China", proposing the overall strategy for the construction of digital China in the new era. In 2022, the scale of China's digital economy reached 50.2 trillion yuan, ranking second in the world in total, with a nominal year-on-year growth of 10.3%, and its proportion in the gross domestic product increased to 41.5%. One detail is worth mentioning: the final revision of the Occupational Classification Code of the People's Republic of China Occupational Classification Code was approved, marking 97 digital occupations for the first time. From digital countryside to digital China, from digital economy to digital profession... Digital civilization has become an important driving force for leading high-quality economic and social development.
China is not only a leader in digital civilization, but also an explorer of beauty and harmony.Those who share the same aspirations do not consider mountains and seas as distant. In 2014, the first World Internet Conference was held in Wuzhen and then settled down permanently. In the past decade, political figures, representatives of international organizations, corporate executives, online elites, and experts and scholars from multiple countries have come from thousands of miles to Wuzhen to stir up opinions, seek consensus, and promote digital civilization to better benefit humanity. Today, facing new risks brought about by uncertainty in artificial intelligence technologies such as ChatGPT, multiple countries around the world are considering solutions. Unprecedented in human history, we need to move towards each other, while welcoming the digital dividend, we must also work together to face the challenges of civilization.
Embrace the digital civilization, "its momentum has become, its time has arrived, and its prosperity is waiting.". Currently, China has embarked on a new journey to achieve the second centenary goal and is continuing to move towards the grand goal of building a socialist modernized strong country in all respects. The opening of a new journey in sync with the new era of China's digital civilization is the grand curtain. From "interconnectivity, sharing, and co governance" to "building a community with a shared future in cyberspace", to "developing the digital economy to promote openness and sharing", "creating a digital world with mutual trust and co governance", and then to "jointly building a digital world and creating a digital future"... Let's keep up with the trend. Under the concept of a community with a shared future in cyberspace, China has always adhered to an open and shared attitude, using a tangible Chinese style digital civilization to depict a magnificent prospect of common development, mutual benefit, and win-win for countries around the world.
The digital civilization is a magnificent network that humanity rushes towards together. A network, a cable, a phone, a screen... Digital civilization is closely related to everyone. Or rather, the future of digital civilization is linked to the aspirations and well-being of all humanity for a better life. Confucius said, "Virtue is not solitary, there must be neighbors." The Nishan Dialogue is a philosophical thought on the long river of history and a collision on the stage of the times. This conference of civilization and wisdom will inevitably shine the unique light and warmth of digital civilization for the human value system of harmony but diversity, seeking common ground while reserving differences, and harmonious coexistence.
