Based on the development trend of the global digital economy, Ms. Wu Linlin pointed out that digital trade has become the core force driving Chinese companies to go global.

With detailed data, she analyzed how cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence and other technologies break the boundaries of time and space and promote the transformation of China's trade to digital and intelligent.
