At the same time, Smart China Expo brought a wind of hope to Chongqing.

In 2018, Chongqing promoted big data and smart industry, raising the contribution of advanced manufacturing, "letting intelligentization empower the economy," and realizing the smart transformation. As gathering lots of Chongqing manufacturing enterprises, plus the permanent holding site of the Smart China Expo, Liangjiang New Area naturally became the frontline of the industry upgrading battle.

When the world is developing towards intelligentization, enterprises can seize the opportunity ahead in the next wave of the industrial revolution. "Intelligentization is not only the opportunity for the enterprises but also the opportunity for the city to renovating its industry and infrastructure, in a nutshell, to move onto the higher level," said Hu Jingbing, the director of Industrial Promotion Bureau of Liangjiang New Area.

But why is the concept of intelligentization so important that the Chinese government and enterprises are mentioning it more and more frequently? For ordinary people, intelligentization means smart technologies like online

payment, face scanning, smart furniture, which are easy to understand. But when it comes to industry, what does it mean to our enterprises and technicians?

"There are two levels of meaning in terms of industrial intelligentization. One is to optimize the production process of factories. The other is to produce advanced products to occupy the high end of the industry chain," Hu Jingbing said.
