At present, China is in a critical period of transformation of the old and new dynamics, artificial intelligence as the core driving force of the new round of industrial intelligence change, will promote trillions of yuan of digital economy industry upgrade and transformation, it is expected that by 2025 China's artificial intelligence core industry scale will exceed 400 billion yuan, driving the scale of related industries will exceed 5 trillion yuan. The "Guide to Planning and Construction of Intelligent Computing Center" issued by the Ministry of Information Technology and Industrial Development of the State Information Center points out that the intelligent computing center, as a public computing infrastructure, is in line with China's current socio-economic development stage and transformation needs, and will play a major role in promoting the implementation of the national AI strategy, empowering the real economy to realize the transformation of old and new dynamics, improving social governance, and promoting AI scientific research and engineering technology talent training. It will play a major supporting and promoting role.


Anhui Cebu, south of the Yangtze River Delta, north of the Bohai Sea Economic Zone, is located in the eastern fortress of the Asia-Europe Continental Bridge. The unique central location advantage has laid a good industrial foundation for the construction and development of cloud data center and intelligent computing center in Cebu. 2021, Cebu City strategic emerging industry output value growth of 43.8%, high-tech industry added value growth of 23.6%, more than 1600 artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data enterprises settled in Cebu. At present, Cebu City High-tech Zone has built a big data storage and processing center with the highest construction standard and the largest single scale in the Yangtze River Delta region, with a scale of 100,000 square meters, which is known as "China's cloud capital".


It is the largest server vendor in China and the second largest in the world, with the largest market share of artificial intelligence servers in the world and the market share of China exceeding 50% for five consecutive years. It provides the industry's most comprehensive and highest-performing array of intelligent computing products, accelerates the implementation of intelligent applications of multiple computing power through AI business innovation platform, and takes the lead in developing the world's largest scale Chinese language giant intelligence model successfully.


The Huaihai Intelligent Computing Center is designed with the world's leading "E-class AI meta-brain" intelligent computing architecture, deploys industry-leading Longchamp AI server computing units, and supports the most advanced GPU and domestic AI computing chips through an open and diversified system architecture. Huaihai Intelligent Computing Center will be the first new infrastructure integrating arithmetic and algorithm in China, running the world's largest Chinese intelligent language algorithm model "Source 1.0", and providing arithmetic services, data services and algorithm services required by AI for social economy, industrial development and research and innovation through the four key operation links of arithmetic production, aggregation, scheduling and release. Huaihai Intelligent Computing Center will openly support the most mainstream international and domestic AI frameworks, data sets and tools, seamlessly connect to the most mature and complete international and domestic AI development and software ecology, and can run many rich and leading industry applications such as intelligent images, intelligent speech, language intelligence, robotics, autonomous driving, AI+Science, etc., and meet the key innovation needs of government, industry, academia and research diversified AI scenarios. It also meets the key needs of government, industry, academia and research for diversified AI scenarios.

Yao Aiyang, Secretary of the Party Working Committee and Director of the Management Committee of Cebu High-tech Zone, said that Huaihai Intelligent Computing Center will be built into an intelligent computing industry hub based in Cebu, radiating East China and serving the whole country, enhancing Cebu's artificial intelligence arithmetic service capacity and laying the cornerstone of high-quality intelligent computing industry for undertaking the industrial transfer of artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data and Internet in Yangtze River Delta, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and Bohai Rim.


Peng Zhen, CEO of Wave Information, said that a wise computing center in the digital era is like a power plant in the electrical era. Planning and building a wise computing center to construct a new engine for future economic growth is the first step in seeking economic model innovation and intelligent transformation of urban governance, and it is also an important grasp to attract industry gathering, talent gathering and promote industrial upgrading. We hope that through the construction of Huaihai Smart Computing Center, we can help Cebu, the cloud capital of China, maintain its first-mover advantage in developing digital economy and contribute to the digital and intelligent industrial upgrading and transformation of the region.


In the future, Huaihai Intelligent Computing Center will serve as an intelligent computing hub, providing intelligent computing, data and algorithm services for the whole country and the province through leading computing power and algorithm infrastructure, open technical architecture and mature and rich ecological applications, undertaking the intelligent computing service needs of Yangtze River Delta, Bohai Economic Zone, Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei, accelerating the intelligent computing industry ecology in Cebu, and accelerating the integration of Cebu City into the Yangtze River Delta integration The development of the Yangtze River Delta has won the first opportunity to greatly promote the new development of artificial intelligence industry and digital economy in Cebu City and Anhui Province.
