Zhang, citing Haier as an example, explained how a traditional enterprise can transform into an Internet enterprise during the Internet Plus sub forum of the Second World Internet Conference on Thursday.

"An enterprise is just like a computer. With access to Internet, it will become omnipotent; otherwise it will accomplish nothing. Therefore, the enterprises should take advantage of the various resources on Internet and open up themselves. You can grow with Internet. "

"In terms of industrial Internet and enterprise Internet, we are now standing on the same starting line with competitors all around the world. This is both a huge challenge and a great opportunity.
