• "There are 5 Big New Trends that will change China and the rest of the world: "New Retail", "New Production", "New Finance", "New Technology" and "New Resources”
• “Pure e-commerce" will vanish soon, Alibaba will no longer mention the word 'e-commerce’
• It has often been said that 'the Internet is disrupting several industries,' or that 'e-commerce has destroyed traditional commerce.' I don't believe so, what truly disrupted us are our backward thoughts, our ignorance of the future, and the refusal to embrace the future
• In the past we tried to become more like machines, in the future machines will become more like humans”

• Ali Cloud will use its artificial intelligence (AI), deep learning and data analytics capabilities for the Hangzhou City Brain project
• The project will address the city’s urban living challenges and will rely on Ali Cloud to perform real-time traffic prediction with its video and image recognition technologies
• Forming the backbone of the “Hangzhou City Brain” data processing and analysis capabilities is Apsara, Alibaba Cloud’s large scale computing operating system, which is able to cluster millions of servers into a super computer and to support a multitude of cloud-based services by analyzing terabytes of data points

• Jian Wang announced the Hangzhou City Brain together with Terry Guo, CEO of Foxconn, and Hangzhou Government officer
• Terry Guo said that the first time he has been here was in
2007 at the 2nd E-commerce Conference. Jack Ma told him: "You are an elephant in the manufacturing industry, I’m now helping a bunch of ants to disrupt you”. Today those ants have a “brain” thanks to Alicloud. Even though they are tiny, they are getting smarter and can really overturn an elephant. It is not only an elephant that has been overturned, but also the global political, economical and financial landscape

The intelligent era of YunOS
![Page 12: Alibaba 2016 Computing Conference](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051503/589b9f531a28abd63e8b5d89/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
• Developed by more than 1,000 engineers over the course of three years, YunOS is now the third most popular operating system in China, used in more than 100 million mobile devices, smart home appliances, smart TVs as well as a humanoid robot
• It distinguishes itself from the most widely used smartphone
operating systems because it was built to work in a cloud environment. Devices act as nodes on a network, constantly sharing information with, and using software programs and computational power from the cloud

• Alibaba has officially announced its first “Internet car” in collaboration with SAIC and it includes a new version of Yun’os operating system
• “What we are creating is not ‘a car + Internet’, but a ‘car running on the Internet’. Smart operating systems become the second engine of cars, while data is the new fuel,” said Jian Wang
• “In the past cars devalued after you bought them, but thanks to data cars will have a new value independent from the aging of the asset
