Germany, the United States, China vs. Industry 4.0

ï‚· [Upstream and downstream of China's instrumentation network industry] From October 29 to 30, German Chancellor Angela Merkel made an official visit to China. Chancellor Angela Merkel personally endorsed the "Industry 4.0" as a German national strategy. Under this strategy, China has also launched "Made in China 2025" to promote China's manufacturing transformation and upgrading.

At the same time, the U.S. technology industry is looking sideways and ready to try it all at once...

This is a "science and technology contest" provoked by the Germans. The history is really awe-inspiring. Both world wars originated in Germany and they all come from the progress of productivity. Of course, no one dares to speculate about the Third World War. To erupt, it is that the world is not chaotic.

However, this "Industry 4.0" is definitely the most exciting "war" in human history, because of the following three points:

1. It will not be easy to use force 2. It needs to cooperate and compete. 3. All its achievements will serve humanity. This is also the fourth science and technology revolution of mankind. From the big to the world's pattern, to people's lives, it will be completely subverted!

First, what kind of world pattern will industry 4.0 produce? According to the current development situation, if the future world is a “human body,” then the United States is the brain, Germany is the heart, and China is the limbs. Here are two meanings:

The first level of meaning: The world is accelerating the integration, and no one will ever be able to separate from the second layer of the meaning: The future competition is no longer who destroys whom, but who must be subordinate to who should say so?

This requires first understanding the "future factory" process.

In the future, such as when you need a car, you only need to open the APP, enter your customization requirements, and the information will be sent to the factory. The factory will convert the features of your expressed product into data, and then arrange the materials through calculations. Distribution, parts grinding, and machine assembly.

The most important thing is: Each component on the assembly line is produced according to your will. It has its own identity information, and the machine will interpret this information. If it does not meet the requirements, it will be adjusted immediately and then automatically assembled. Of course, people are not involved in this process.

Thus, it can be summarized as follows: Industry 1.0 realizes “mass production” (invention of steam engine), Industry 2.0 realizes “electricity production” (wide application of electricity), and Industry 3.0 realizes “automated production” (standardization of products). Industry 4.0 has realized “customized production”, and the customization cycle is short and the production is convenient and quick.

In the future, your fragrance is modulated according to your personality. The medicine you eat is formulated according to your genes... This satisfies today’s pursuit of diversified, individualized products! It should be said that this is a A world trend.

It is precisely because of the customization and diversification of production that “Industry 4.0” will generate huge amounts of data. Taking the German Amberg factory as an example, there are more than 1,000 on-line monitoring nodes on the production line, collecting more than 50 million data daily.

Then, the question has come. What is the core competitiveness of the "future factory"?

First, it is very important to meet this kind of customized production machinery and equipment. Secondly, it is more important to be able to make this kind of machine self-perfecting system. Third: Who can monitor and track this data, and then summarize and analyze it, and everyone will master the world? pulse.

Do you understand this? All the problems with Industry 4.0 can be attributed to the above three issues. The question now is: Everyone wants to seize the top end of this "future industrial chain." After all, will these massive data be attributed to machines, software, or end-users? This will be the key issue in determining the future pattern of the world.

The German Industry 4.0 Strategy Why Germany is the focus of Industry 4.0? Not only because it is the birthplace of Industry 4.0, but also it can be made available, it can resist the occupation of American information technology's invasion of the domestic manufacturing industry, can suppress China's manufacturing industry. Low cost competition!

Germany wants to stop the dominance of information technology over manufacturing. Once every aspect of the manufacturing industry is taken over by cloud computing, the United States is the biggest winner.

According to Leonberger, vice president of Deutsche Telekom, if automakers cannot master these core data, then Google will become a winner. Cloud platform and cloud package community will make the factory a vassal of information.

Therefore, in order to avoid being overtaken by the United States, Germany is doing its best.

Germany has incorporated Industry 4.0 into the "High-tech Strategy 2020", and Industry 4.0 has officially become a national strategy. It is also planning to formulate relevant laws to promote Industry 4.0 and raise Industry 4.0 from an industrial policy to national law.

In a very short period of time, German Industry 4.0 was widely recognized by parties, governments, enterprises, associations, and institutions, and reached consensus.

This consensus is: Germany will use the "information physics system" to make the production equipment gain intelligence, so that the factory will become a "smart factory" to realize a self-disciplined decentralized system. At that time, cloud computing was just one of the objects of use in the manufacturing industry and would not be the center of control for manufacturing!

The Challenge of U.S. Industry 4.0 First of all, the U.S. is a great industrialist in the era of industry 3.0. Industry 3.0 is an information technology revolution. The United States is far ahead of the world in this respect. Not only Germany but also the whole Europe and Europe have lost the opportunity for the development of the global information and communication industry.

For example, in the Internet industry where the information industry is most active, there are no 20 European Internet companies with the largest market value in the world. The European Internet market is basically monopolized by US companies. The German Deputy Minister of Economy and Energy Gabriel once said that the data of German companies He is controlled by the four major technologies in Silicon Valley in the United States. This is what he is worried about.

In the period of Industry 3.0, the global information industry was booming, but European companies have lost ground.

Currently, the U.S. Internet and ICT giants have joined hands with traditional manufacturing leaders, and more than 80 companies such as GE, Cisco, IBM, and AT&T Intel have established industrial Internet alliances and are redefining the future of manufacturing. They are also focusing on technologies, standards, and industries. In terms of chemical and other aspects, it has made a series of forward-looking layouts, industrial Internet and one of the important tasks of becoming an advanced manufacturing partner program in the United States.

Europe and Germany have expressed deep concerns about the innovative capabilities of emerging industries and their prospects for future development.

Opportunities for China's Industry 4.0 On June 24, 2014, the chairman of the German Machinery Association (VDMA) said in Japan that Germany and Japan are working together to apply the challenges of Chinese manufacturing, and the website of the German "Le Monde" also reported that "China's machinery manufacturing industry is a serious threat." Germany!"

Germany's magic weapon to deal with China's manufacturing industry is to use the cost advantages brought about by flexible production to circumvent China's labor cost advantage. Having said this, we must first analyze ourselves. What are the advantages of China in the era of Industry 4.0?

Some people think that China’s talent is an advantage: China’s total number of scientific and technological personnel and R&D personnel ranks first and second in the world respectively, and there are approximately 7 million university graduates each year. The annual comprehensive cost of an engineer in China (30,000 US dollars) is only one tenth of that of the United States (300,000 US dollars), but at first glance this is really "affordable!"

However, I believe that the so-called "talents" in China are talents measured by their own rules. These so-called talents are much less innovative and active. Others believe that China's advantage is that it has the world's largest demand market. This is simply unacceptable. In today's global integration, all needs are shared by everyone!

If we want to talk about China's advantages in Industry 4.0, there are two aspects:

First: According to the investigation of the New York Times, Chinese industry has the most complete supply chain in the world.

China is the only country in the world that possesses all industrial categories (39 industrial categories, 191 medium and 525 subcategories) in the United Nations Industrial Classification, and it has formed an industrial system with complete categories and complete independence. From basic parts such as screws to communications, aerospace, and high-speed rails, it is possible to draw materials locally and ready for use.

Second: The strong organizational capability of the Chinese government is also a unique advantage that cannot be ignored.

From the “Adjustment and Revitalization Plan for the Equipment Manufacturing Industry” to the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan for Industrial Transformation and Upgrade”, “The 12th Five-Year Development Plan for the Intelligent Manufacturing Equipment Industry”, and the “China Manufacturing Strong Country 2025 Plan”, China Government-related plans have been introduced more and more closely!

In addition, local governments have also been making efforts to provide support for emerging industries in various regions, although I insist that most of this is to circulate money and boost GDP!

Industry 4.0, what is China's most lacking? It is the belief in science and technology and the impulse to innovate!

The vast majority of Chinese people's thinking still stays at the stage of “small business hawkers”, in this era of heroes that use more money and less money. If you have money to find ways to continue to make money, you have to spend money all day and you have to talk to him about innovation and technology. He must say that you are an idiot.

The purpose of the Chinese people is very simple. When they live, they want to make money. Where the fire goes, what is the hottest thing. Nowadays the most popular “Internet thinking” is to use free popularity, use a single brush to squeeze on the top, and grab the market at a low price. With explosives to beat profits, but also do not see the shadow of Industry 4.0.

Someone said: "Industry 4.0 will only take 10 years to eliminate Taobao." I see where it takes ten years, and at most three years! Industry 4.0 will restructure consumer relations and the shopping chain, thus destroying and rebuilding the commercial structure!

I can't help but reflect: The Chinese, are we really ready?

The Future War But if you understand history, you will find that the inner reason of the First World War was the Great Revolution of Industry 1.0, when the productivity of the capitalist countries was liberated and mass production began. However, the country’s raw materials for production are insufficient, and they can only go to other countries to plunder raw materials. This has created a frenzy of the capitalist countries to divide the world, and the uneven distribution has led to a world war!

And Germany is both the initiator of the two world wars and the fiasco of the two world wars. Obviously this time will not just get the key to Industry 4.0 and stand out as a picker, but no one dares to underestimate Germany's ambitions.

If you want to mention "future war."

No one can defeat anyone later, but if you don't have the ability, you don't even have the chance to start a war!

Because you are a subordinate. This world has always been the only person who consults the strong and treads on the weak. If you don’t believe it, go back and try Chinese modern history.

Of course, peace and development are the main stream. The law of the future is to seek competition in cooperation and give back to China. This is a more subtle relationship of struggle: Germany is already China’s closest partner in the West, and Under the consultation between the German, Chinese and German governments, the outline of the Sino-German cooperation for cooperation has been issued to the world. Both parties are skeptical about the two sides of the U.S. information technology.

Unlike the attitude of openness in the US Silicon Valley, Germany still values ​​Chinese business opportunities and the Chinese government’s cooperation attitude. But privately, the Germans still flooded the patent pool...

What's more, the delicate face is not only Germany and the United States, but also Japan and India, etc... Isn't it a good time for this development that they do not have their wishful thinking? Invincible foreign patients, the country's perpetual death," this is the constant truth.

Only when a nation has a sense of urgency and knows how to be prepared for peacetime can it be long-term peace and stability!
