Song Hua, the Associate Dean of RBS, attended the summit as one of the keynote speakers. In his speech, declining performance, weakened market and blooming virtual economy are the main current risks that most Chinese enterprises have to confront with. Under such circumstances, the key point lies in strengthening the industry supply chain and practicing “Internet +” mode to achieve the “smart” supply chain. The goal of “Made in China 2025” is not only the gee-whiz technologies like industrial robot, 3D printing, or Internet of Things, but rather data-embedded production cycle management, ecological industry, developed industrial technologies and internet service. Finance should not be only regarded as a tool of capital allocation. Its positive impact in social, industrial and economic development, especially the real economy, deserves more attention and devotion.
