ROBIN LI CHAIRMAN & CEO OF BAIDU "Minister Miao Wei of Science and Technology says we need another eight to ten years to have self-driving cars on the road. But I believe that day could come earlier, though it will be a progressive process. I believe AI will serve as a major boost for China's growth in the coming twenty to fifty years."

DENG ZHONGHAN CHAIRMAN, VIMICRO "We've developed a new chip model focusing on AI. It's a neural network unit that's capable of deep learning. We will release an upgraded version this year with lower energy consumption."

SU QUANKE CHIEF ENGINEER, HZMB AUTHORITY "With the construction of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, we've acquired the core technologies of building cross-sea bridges, artificial islands and tunnels. These technologies will help Chinese companies go global, and contribute to the advancement of the Belt and Road Initiative. We will seek facilitation for users of the bridge and boost communications in the three regions."
