Quotable quotes from Boao Forum
Dong Mingzhu, chairwoman of Gree Electric Appliances
For Dong, the era of livestreaming is coming. With the development of internet, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic, traditional offline sales patterns have been challenged. The internet not only changed people's thinking, but also their behavior.
Furthermore, in the past, enterprises usually guaranteed product quality via human resources and material. Now, with the help of internet, enterprises can accurately control product quality via big data processing.
Innovation is everywhere, Dong said. If an enterprise doesn't innovate, it will be out of the market. In the era of internet, manufacturing enterprises should face challenges bravely. This is the principle we should stick to. "Manufacturing is the root, however, internet is the wings that can make us fly higher."
