Today’s Qilu land is full of vivid practices of "changing the cloud to the number" – in Qingdao, the "capital of Chinese brands", many small and medium-sized enterprises go to the cloud to use the cloud; in Rizhao on the coast of the East China Sea, autonomous trucks shuttle freely through the dock; in Dongying, where the Yellow River enters the sea, 5G sensors guard the safe production of the oil field; in Zibo, the former capital of Qi, children sitting in rural classrooms can listen to real-time lectures from famous teachers in famous schools through screens…

Behind these futuristic production and life scenes, Shandong Telecom has the figure. In recent years, Shandong Telecom has implemented the China Telecom Group’s "cloud transformation and digital transformation" strategy according to local conditions, firmly grasping the opportunity of digitalization, networking and intelligent integration development, empowering thousands of industries with digital transformation, and effectively promoting high-quality economic and social development.

Cloud computing bases deeply empower the digital economy

As a core resource in the digital age, computing power is the main productive force supporting the development of the digital economy. It is estimated that from 2016 to 2020, every 1 percentage point increase in the scale of computing power in our country will drive the growth of the digital economy by 0.4 percentage points and the GDP by 0.2 percentage points.

Railways or highways are the cornerstones of the power era, and cloud-network integration infrastructure is the foundation of the computing power era. "Cloud computing that provides computing power" and "network that provides connection and transmission capacity" are accelerating their integration, and computing-network integration has become an important direction for the development of computing power. On the one hand, in the digital economy era, computing power is required on a large scale, which is reflected in cloud computing at the infrastructure level; on the other hand, it is necessary to connect computing power in different locations through the network, and dynamically dispatch computing power to meet the needs of different groups of people and different enterprises. Therefore, in the computing power era, it is necessary to integrate cloud and network to form a foundation for promoting economic development.

China Telecom is providing rich computing power solutions, allowing large and medium-sized enterprises to enter the "computing power era" more and more deeply.

Smart classroom builds urban and rural teaching community

During the Warring States Period, the Jixia Academy, located in Linzi, the capital of Qi State (now Linzi District, Zibo, Shandong Province), became a major innovation in the history of Chinese education development. It was the earliest government-run institution of higher learning in the world, as well as the earliest Academy of Social Sciences and government think tanks in China. As the center of academic contention at that time, it contributed to the formation of academic contention.

Today, more than 2,000 years later, Zibo has once again witnessed the technological innovation in the history of education. In a rural middle school 25 kilometers away from Huantai County, Zibo, students can listen to the famous teachers of the county middle school through an interactive online teaching system. This "real person face-to-face" online teaching method is more realistic than traditional distance teaching. Various demonstration images and model props are more three-dimensional and fresh, bringing teachers and students a refreshing immersive classroom experience.

Under the guidance of the Zibo Education Bureau, Shandong Telecom has joined hands with Huashi Cloud Technology to jointly create an AI synchronous classroom teaching system, which has benefited 447 schools in Zibo. The first phase of the project covers 1720 classrooms through the 5G ?? education special network, and the online teaching client side covers 30,000 teachers, serving the teachers and students of primary and secondary schools in the city. 5G ?? VR classroom, which can realize the learning of science experiments and other courses, students can learn knowledge in the virtual reality world and enjoy an immersive learning experience; 5G ?? Remote live broadcast, breaking geographical restrictions and realizing the sharing of educational resources; 5G ?? MR multi-person collaborative teaching, achieving the learning effect across virtual and real space…

In response to the problems of uneven, insufficient and poor opening of courses in rural schools, Zibo uses this online smart classroom teaching system to carry out pairing assistance and personalized customization, promote the regular normalization of urban and rural network dual-teacher classrooms, and carry out curriculum research in urban and rural areas. Research on learning conditions, technology and curriculum integration and application research, urban and rural lecturers and teaching assistants work closely together to achieve the effect of 1 > 1 > 2, benefiting 200,000 teachers and students. Gaoqing County, as the only county along the Yellow District of Zibo City, still has a big gap in the allocation of teachers in rural primary schools along the Yellow compared with county schools. The county makes full use of the smart classroom teaching system, the number of online students per week reaches more than 12,000, the learning effect is significantly improved, and the student praise is 97%.

Smart Classroom introduces high-quality teaching resources into rural schools, turning the classroom into a visual, scene-based, immersive, and interactive "wisdom feast", accurately solving the current problems of large teacher demand gaps and insufficient supply of educational resources, and further translating the dream of balanced education into reality.

Connect upstream and downstream to promote industrial ecological prosperity

In the huge petrochemical plant area, there are many pipelines and towers. On the large screen of the intelligent monitoring center, you can see the green logo representing the safety status constantly appearing above the pipelines and towers. Infrared thermal imaging and gas detector split-screen can sense and monitor temperature exceeding standards and gas leakage… These scenes full of technology are launched after integrating a series of 5G-related vertical applications.

In the aspects of equipment monitoring, data collection, data transmission, and equipment inspection, oilfield refining and chemical enterprises have strict requirements for the use of wireless networks, which provides opportunities for new technologies such as 5G and visual recognition.

Sinopec Shengli Oilfield Branch and Shandong Telecom have established a comprehensive strategic partnership in the fields of smart oilfields, oil and gas production and industrial Internet information services, and jointly explore the deep integration of 5G communication, IPv6, industrial Internet of Things platform, cloud, big data, artificial intelligence, blockchain, data information services, data disaster recovery and disaster preparedness, cyber security and other technologies with the industry.

Shandong Telecom Dongying Branch and the second-level units of Shengli Oilfield have successively cooperated in the field of 5G customized network, jointly deployed 5G edge private network in Shengli Oilfield Luming Qingnan Oil and Gas Development Co., Ltd., realized the commercial landing of 5G super uplink service and edge UPF, promoted and implemented the 5G customized network of the adjacent mode, and created an integrated customized fusion service through the five-in-one customized network of "network edge cloud service" to achieve "cloud network integration, on-demand customization".

Smart port, establishing a "China sample"

Rizhao, which has the reputation of "two ports connect the four seas, and the first line connects Asia and Europe", is the eastern bridgehead of the New Eurasian Continental Bridge Economic Corridor, the main node city of the New Eurasian Continental Bridge Economic Corridor, and the strategic fulcrum of the "Belt and Road Initiative" maritime cooperation. Rizhao Port’s throughput ranks sixth in the country’s coastal ports and is the ninth largest port in the world.

However, the container operation volume of Rizhao Port has grown rapidly, the risk factor of human operation in bad weather is high, and the port trucks work multiple shifts and labor costs are high. These pain points urgently need to accelerate the implementation of intelligent applications such as driverless driving. In order to help Rizhao Port break through the development bottleneck and build a fully automated container terminal, Shandong Telecom Rizhao Branch and Rizhao Port have formed a close cooperation relationship and continue to empower the 5G customized network driverless project.

The unmanned truck self-driving project gives full play to China Telecom’s strong cloud-network integration strength, and based on 5G technology, it has built the world’s first shoreside open fully automated container terminal, providing global ports with a "Chinese sample" of the transformation of traditional terminals into fully automated container terminals. It is of great demonstration significance for leading the construction of fully automated container terminals with "low cost, short cycle and fast effect".

The project has planned three business scenarios that fit the port business, including the remote control of port machinery, the remote driving of the truck, the precise positioning of the shore bridge and the container, and realized the precise driving route of the heavy truck (the wheel and the driving line maintain a distance of 20cm) and the precise parking and the precise positioning and transportation of the container by the crane, which greatly saved the cost of the terminal transformation. At the same time, due to the closed automated terminal design with controllable whole process, the stacking density is higher, and the land utilization rate of the port is higher. For the seventh time, Rizhao Port broke the record of the world’s first automated terminal loading and unloading efficiency maintained by itself.

The 5G "ultra-long-distance" remote intelligent driving technology in Rizhao Port has good handling and safety. It can return 7-way 1080p high-resolution video in real time, covering the driving perspective of the vehicle and the blind spot of the vehicle. It includes an automatic protection mechanism under abnormal network conditions, ensuring the safety of operations and making remote intelligent driving possible. This application accelerates the automation and intelligent process of Rizhao Port, improves the efficiency of terminal operations, and contributes telecommunications power to accelerate the construction of a world-class marine port.

As a national key basic network operator and the main force in the construction of digital China, Shandong Telecom will make full use of 5G, Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and other new generation Information Communication Technologies in the "computing power era", focusing on industry, education, medical care, energy, finance, government affairs, agriculture, small and medium-sized enterprises and other fields to strengthen scientific and technological empowerment support, and paint a brilliant picture of the development of digital economy in Qilu.
