Dr. Wang Jian is also a journal of the American Computer Society (Communication). In May, he joined Alibaba Group as the chief architect, helped Alibaba Group to establish a world-class technical team, and was responsible for the construction of the group's technical architecture and basic technology platform. In 2009, he was appointed as the chief technology officer of Ali Software. Important as "cameras in any city need at least one million days to watch videos every day, but these data have never been regarded as resources." Wang Jian, who first proposed the urban brain, once again called for turning data into the most important resource for urban governance in Shenzhen. In fact, Wang Jian, Chairman of the Technical Committee of Alibaba Group, was invited to share his practice and thoughts on the urban brain project at the new generation information technology industry development summit forum co-sponsored by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and Shenzhen people. The forum was held during the Fifth Electronic Information Expo. "We have called for smart cities for so many years, and suddenly found that there is no brain, and wisdom is impossible." Wang Jian introduced the origin of urban brain. "A city with a data brain can truly become a sustainable city." At the same time, Wang Jian emphasized Wang Jian's profile. Today, China's urban development is facing unprecedented challenges, and there is no experience to learn from, which requires us to solve the problem ourselves. "The urban brain is an important exploration made by China for the world. It will become an important urban infrastructure like the power grid; And data will also become the most important resource for urban governance, surpassing land.
Ma Yun commented that when Wang Jian met Dr. Wang Jian for the first time, I was shocked by his understanding of the future development of Internet technology and felt that it was a long time since we met. The first time I heard a doctor talk about the future data age at the group strategy meeting, I was amazed at his understanding and persistence in data technology. It is precisely because of this that Ali has today's technical layout. When I first heard the doctor's proposal to develop YunOS, I was almost stunned by his angry courage. The first time I heard people complain about how bad the cloud phone is, I saw the tenacity of the doctor and his team. When the dispute between Hadoop (a software platform for developing and running large-scale data processing) and ladder technology first occurred, I was pleasantly surprised to see the scientific spirit and persistence of an amazing and absolutely responsible technology. Everyone has criticized and thought about the management, communication and execution of doctors, but in any case, we will always see a modest, pure and positive big boy. Doctors are people, not gods. Everyone knows the shortcomings of doctors, and I know as much as everyone else. However, it is estimated that few people know the greatness of doctors. If we had a doctor 10 years ago, Ali's technology might be very different today. If our engineers, product personnel and operation service personnel already have a brief introduction of Wang Jian, the real concept of partnership, then Ali's tomorrow will be even more different. If our doctor is a programmer, then Ali's CTO may be no different from that of any company.
If a conductor of a band needs to be proficient in all kinds of musical instruments to be a conductor, then many executives of Alibaba Group will be laid off. No one in Ali Group was born to be CEO (CEO), CFO (Chief Financial Officer) and CPO (Chief Product Officer) ... The greatness of Ali is that we can turn a seemingly incompetent person "O" into a unique "O"! Thank you for your criticism of the doctor. It is these criticisms that make doctors more perfect. Ali will turn a doctor of psychology into an excellent CTO, just as the United States will turn Reagan into president. Doctor can have today, not only because of his own talent and hard work, but also because of your support and help. I hope you can continue to support the doctor's work in the future.
