China’s 5G construction is accelerating.

On the afternoon of May 25, the third plenary session of the Thirteenth National People ’s Congress held a second plenary meeting in the Great Hall of the People. At the “Minister Channel” interview, Miao Wei, Minister of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, said that 5G has accelerated the construction rate since this year. Although affected by the epidemic, there may be some impact in January, February and even March, but various companies are still working hard to increase their efforts to get the time back. Now on the land of the motherland, about 10,000 5G base stations are added every week. In April, the number of 5G users increased by more than 7 million a month, and the cumulative number has exceeded 36 million.

For the use of 5G, Miao Wei introduced three scenarios in combination with epidemic prevention and control.

In the first scenario, when the epidemic was most intense, Academician Zhong Nanshan connected remotely through 5G video to conduct remote consultations for five critical patients. The image data transmitted through 5G are very clear, and have played a positive role in diagnosis and treatment of patients.

The second scene, the video connection of the “Minister Channel” interview, through 5G + 4K, and 8K HD display, so such a big screen, but look It looks very clear, very real.

In the third scene, during the two sessions, Xinhua News Agency conducted a 5G holographic interview. Although the reporter and the representative were about 1,000 kilometers apart, it was like face-to-face communication.

Miao Wei said that all three scenarios show that with the construction of network facilities and the increasing number of base stations, 5G will be used more and more in the future. There can be more 5G scenes at the Beijing Winter Olympics, and more users can be tailored through 5G to provide better services for everyone.

This year ’s government work report mentioned, “Develop a new generation of information networks, expand 5G applications, build charging piles, promote new energy vehicles, stimulate new consumer demand, and help industries upgrade”.

Surging reporters found out that 5G has also attracted frequent attention at the two sessions of the country this year, and many representatives and members have made suggestions around 5G.

According to the China Academy of Information Technology, 5G will directly drive economic growth of 10.6 trillion yuan from 2020 to 2025, and indirectly drive 24.8 trillion yuan, and industry
