1. Revenue and efficiency are stable and improving. In the first quarter, the digital industry achieved business revenue of 8.5 trillion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 9.4%, an increase of 4.4 percentage points from the same period last year. Among them, the manufacturing and service industries grew by 10.4% and 8.2% respectively. The total profit of the digital industry achieved 572.1 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 7.0%. Among them, the manufacturing and service industries grew by 4.9% and 7.7% respectively.

2. Key areas have strong driving force. The revenue of digital industry in 24 provinces achieved positive growth, of which 10 provinces achieved double-digit growth. The eastern and central regions increased by 10.2% and 9.7% respectively, with growth rates increasing by 3 and 7.1 percentage points from the same period last year. The top 10 provinces in the top 10 digital industries such as Guangdong, Jiangsu, Beijing, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Shandong, Sichuan, Fujian, Anhui, and Hubei have achieved a total revenue of 6.8 trillion yuan, accounting for 80.7% of the country's total, and contributed 90.8% to the growth of national digital industry revenue.

3. Digital infrastructure continues to be optimized and upgraded. As of the end of March, 4.395 million 5G base stations have been built, the communication network has accelerated its evolution and upgrading to 5G-A, and 29.25 million 10G PON ports with gigabit service capabilities have reached 86 cities across the country have launched pilot deployment of 10G optical networks. The number of standard racks of computing power centers in use nationwide exceeds 9 million, and the construction of integrated computing power network is being deepened. New infrastructure has accelerated coverage, and a total of 58,000 5G virtual private networks have been built, covering key application scenarios such as industry, ports, and energy. Develop 2.728 billion mobile Internet of Things terminals, build 382 secondary industrial Internet identification resolution nodes, access to service enterprises, and accelerate the development of "intelligent connection of all things".

4. Key industries are operating smoothly. Electronic information manufacturing continues to recover and improve. The added value of computer communications and other electronic equipment manufacturing industries above a certain scale increased by 11.5% year-on-year, 5 percentage points higher than the industry in the same period. The effect of electronic products grabbing exports is obvious, and the growth rate of export volume (5.8%) accelerated by 9.8 percentage points year-on-year. The "old-for-new" policy for consumer goods has driven the market significantly, with domestic mobile phone shipments increasing by 3.3% year-on-year, maintaining positive growth for seven consecutive quarters. The revenue of smart wearable devices, unmanned aircraft and smart vehicle equipment industries has achieved double-digit growth. Driven by emerging businesses such as artificial intelligence and cloud platforms, the software industry achieved business revenue of 3.1 trillion yuan, an increase of 10.6% year-on-year. The total volume of telecommunications business increased by 7.7% year-on-year, 2.4 percentage points higher than the growth rate of the service industry, and the Internet and related service industries operated smoothly.

5. The accumulation of emerging momentum is strengthened. With the recovery of market demand and the "two-fold and two-new" policies, fixed asset investment in the electronic information manufacturing industry increased by 10.5%. The industry's "new content" is constantly increasing, major scientific and technological innovation achievements are constantly emerging, and investment and financing in emerging fields such as artificial intelligence and humanoid robots remain high. "Artificial Intelligence +" accelerates the empowerment of applications, technology companies accelerate the launch of smart hardware such as AI glasses, and the proportion of shipments of AI mobile phones and AIPCs has increased rapidly, which is expected to drive a new round of digital consumption upgrades. Manufacturing companies in key areas have been connected to big models to promote the improvement of efficiency in key links such as production and manufacturing, product experience, and after-sales service, and the digital transformation of the industry continues to be deepened.
