On April 23, Mr. Sun Deliang, chairman of Zhejiang Netsun Business Treasure Co., Ltd., was invited to attend the “Industrial Supply Chain Boosting Double Cycle” hosted by Zhejiang International Trade Group – the theme of the fifth phase of Zhejiang International Trade Group Double Cycle Alliance summit.
At the meeting, Sun Deliang shared a keynote speech on “Industrial Internet and Industrial Supply Chain”. As an “Internet veteran”, Sun Deliang first shared his entrepreneurial story. In 1997, when he was only 25 years old, he borrowed 20,000 yuan in start-up funds from his hometown, and started his business with the dream of earning 30,000 yuan a year in Hangzhou. He created an e-commerce website for the chemical industry – ChinaChemNet. Unexpectedly, 9 years later, on December 15, 2006, it successfully completed the stock listing in Shenzhen, becoming the first Internet company in China to issue stocks in the A-share market.
After listing, Netsun Business Treasure has focused on the industrial Internet field. After nearly 15 years of exploration and development, it has created the “Industry Network + Alliance” B2B e-commerce platform Tooth Treasure, commodity data platform Sunesy, and Netsun Raw material trading center and information promotion system, raw material trading system and supply chain financial system.
But since its listing, Sun Deliang has been thinking: Can the Internet change the business and business operations? He mentioned that there are currently two “jianghu” in the Internet, the consumer Internet and the industrial Internet. The past 20 years have been the era of the consumer Internet, and its development has come to an end, while the industrial Internet has not yet ushered in real changes.
Sun Deliang elaborated on industrial digitalization from three aspects: industrial Internet, industrial Internet, and management informatization. The Industrial Internet helps manufacturing companies complete the informatization of production, while management informatization is actually an informatization of internal management or business processes. For the industrial Internet, it is the field that can truly achieve great companies. The Industrial Internet actually refers to the circulation of goods between enterprises. How does the industrial Internet platform achieve a new model and a new format? He believes that not only a two-party platform but also a three-party platform can be made. In addition to connecting companies in all chains in the world, he emphasized that the development of the industrial Internet cannot be separated from the blessing of supply chain finance.
As for the introduction of the industrial supply chain, he believes that the industrial supply chain is a platform for enterprises in the industrial cluster to provide supply chain services, including trade, finance, logistics, warehousing, etc. In order to facilitate everyone’s understanding, Sun Deliang introduced the cooperation cases between Netsun Business Treasure and Hangzhou Iron and Steel Group, Provincial Mechanical and Electrical and other large state-owned enterprises. Build an industrial Internet platform for it, and at the same time graft supply chain finance to solve the liquidity problem of downstream terminals and processing plants.
Finally, Sun Deliang said that the current consumer Internet has changed the way of life of Chinese people, and the industrial Internet will definitely change the way Chinese companies operate: platformization + financialization = industrial Internet.
