What are the opportunities for ordinary people in 5G?
2019 is the first year of 5G. On June 6, the Ministry of
Industry and Information Technology issued 10 5G licenses, and on the 31st, the
three major operators officially opened 5G. By the end of 2020, the number of
5G network users will be 160 million, and 89% of the world's total 5G users
will tell a story. Why should we expand the development of 5G and what
opportunities do ordinary people expand?
At the end of 2020, the number of 5G networks will exceed
1.6, 89% of the total number of 5G users in the world, which can increase the
number of users.
Why should my country vigorously develop 5G?
The U.S. Internet leads the world and is inseparable from
the "Information Superhighway" plan in the 1990s. In 1992, the United
States spent 400 billion U.S. dollars to build a national information
infrastructure. What is the concept of investing 400 billion U.S. dollars 29
years ago? The U.S. GDP was 6.5 trillion U.S. dollars that year, and 400
billion was spent on the Internet of Things. But it has led to the rapid
development of the Internet and the information economy in the United States.
According to statistics, the U.S.'s gross national product
is increased by US$321 billion annually due to the completion of the
information superhighway; the realization of home office, etc., reduces the
workload of railways, roads and shipping by 40%; and labor productivity has
increased by 20% to 40%. In addition, a large number of Internet giants have
been born, which has promoted breakthroughs in related fields such as chips,
computers, and communications.
Looking back at the value of this $400 billion investment?
Although it did not immediately bring huge returns to the United States, in the
long run, its returns are absolutely worthwhile. We say that 5G is another
revolution in mobile informatization, that is, the interconnection of
everything, which will create unlimited possibilities and inspire the whole
society to innovate and revolutionize again.
Therefore, don't be fooled by the current "return on
investment" calculated from the operator's perspective. The Chinese
government sees the trend and strives to promote it. If it resists the
negative, it will be left behind by the times.
What opportunities does 5G bring to ordinary people?
First, e-commerce product display. Due to the large flow of
5G, e-commerce product display no longer stays in the form of pictures and
short videos, and may move to 3D projection. It projects the products that need
to be displayed in the air. Just like the photography companies and short video
companies that now serve e-commerce companies, new display companies will soon
come out to provide services.
Second, short videos and live broadcasts. The 5G ultra-large
bandwidth and ultra-high transmission rate make it easy to watch
high-definition videos above 8K online. At that time, the self-media industry
will explode, and the duration of online broadcasting will be more, and people
will watch longer. The media network will deprive people of time on traditional
TV shows. Although there are a lot of people in China's self-media industry,
they are far from meeting future needs. The self-media industry will bring
opportunities to more people.
Third, smart home. Smart homes are now stuck in fingerprint
locks, voice locks, and voice-on-songs. With 5G, smart homes will truly realize
some automated functions. For example, as soon as the owner enters the door,
the home will automatically open according to the data predetermined by the
owner. Curtains, adjust indoor temperature, humidity, turn on lights, prepare
hot water, electronic pets automatically come over to act like a baby, and so
on. At present, manufacturers and sellers of smart homes are preparing to
upgrade.
We are about to enter a critical point of technological
explosion. Please recognize the changes in the 5G era and seize this
opportunity.
