What did the bigwigs in the technology circle say at the two sessions?

[[128838]]

Ten years ago, these Internet entrepreneurs were still lobbying to keep their servers running, but now they have stepped onto the national political stage. The tables of the Internet technology leaders have moved into the Great Hall of the People.

In addition to Jack Ma, Ma Huateng, Lei Jun, Li Yanhong, Yang Yuanqing and other bigwigs have all put forward proposals at the "two sessions" this year. These proposals are either for show or for the sake of depth. It is not only a policy lobbying for the development of the science and technology industry by Internet companies, but also a tit-for-tat between entrepreneurs' ambitions, vision and thinking.
Ma Huateng: Internet+

Ma Huateng suggested formulating a national strategy to promote the comprehensive development of "Internet +", accelerate the popularization and application of mobile Internet in the field of people's livelihood, and fully connect "people and public services" through digital means, which will help solve new and old major livelihood issues such as difficulty in seeing a doctor, unbalanced educational resources, and prevention and control of haze.

In addition, he suggested that the whole society should participate and actively promote the formulation and implementation of my country's mobile Internet information accessibility standards. "No matter whether you are healthy or disabled, young or old, everyone should have equal, convenient and barrier-free access to and use of information at any time."

Although it seems lofty, Ma Huateng's focus is undoubtedly on Internet infrastructure, and this is actually what WeChat is doing - using WeChat to move offline life to the mobile Internet, whether it is food, clothing, housing, transportation, or public services.
Lei Jun: Smart Home and Corporate Law

Lei Jun has served as a deputy to the National People's Congress since last year. This year, Lei Jun suggested that the country establish industry standards for smart homes. He believes that currently, home appliance manufacturers, Internet companies, software developers, system integrators, and even cross-industry manufacturers such as bathroom and furniture have all entered the domestic smart home market, "resulting in uneven quality, different scales, and mixed brands among manufacturers in the smart home industry."

Another suggestion from Lei Jun is about the revision of the Company Law. As an angel investor, he hopes to remove the various constraints on individual and corporate innovation and entrepreneurship, speed up the human capital system and corporate liquidation and distribution system, treasury stock and equity repurchase terms, align with the world's advanced countries, and promote venture capital.

The outside world's evaluation of Lei Jun's proposals is "whatever is proposed, it is done", and this year is no exception. The two proposals just correspond to his two identities and backgrounds - Xiaomi founder and angel investor.
Robin Li: China Brain Project

Since becoming a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference in 2013, Li Yanhong has submitted a proposal on the public service sector for the third time.

The focus of this proposal is on cutting-edge "artificial intelligence". Li Yanhong hopes to establish a national-level "China Brain" plan to promote the leapfrog development of China's artificial intelligence.

Li Yanhong explained that the so-called "China Brain" is actually an "infrastructure for artificial intelligence". It takes intelligent medical diagnosis, intelligent unmanned aircraft, military and civilian robot technology as important research areas, establishes corresponding server clusters, and supports capable companies to build artificial intelligence basic resources and public service platforms. "Then it will be opened to all levels of society, including scientific research institutions, companies, and even entrepreneurs, so that everyone can conduct various attempts and innovations on this large platform."

In fact, considering what Baidu has done in the past year, Baidu Brain, Data Factory, and Open Cloud, it is difficult to understand Robin Li’s intention - to transplant Baidu’s big data plan to the policy level.
