ladies and gentlemen, it is my great honor, to beinvited here to deliver a speech about Internet+.The growth story of china is too good of a story: Inthe past three decades, China was the world's fastest-growing major economy,with growth rates averaging 10%. During the same time, close to 700 mil.Chinese were lifted from extreme poverty.
The growth story of China is twofold. The first iseasy to observe, the dizzying growth of real GDP. The second, the growth ofdigital China, has also drew some attention, but far from the fair share itdeserves.
Moreover, there is an untold story. As more and moreChinese people are involved into the digital world, the impact of digital Chinaon the real one increases rapidly.
This is particularly true in the mobile internet era.
Thanks for the Chinese IT firms such as Huawei, ZTE,and Xiaomi, the price of mobile devices dropped over 90% in the last twentyyears. A nicely made in China smartphone could be as cheap as $100.
As a result, the population of mobile internetsubscribers explored in China. By the end of 2014, there were 600mil. mobilenetizens in China. This is the third largest population around the globe.
