A new milestone for Wuhan's digital industry, the "Chunsun", has been officially launched in Wuhan Economic & Technological Development Zone (WHDZ) in Wuhan, Central China's Hubei province, with the first batch of seven key enterprises now settled in the zone, according to local media reports.
The latest landmark of the digital industry in WHDZ, Chunsun is located in the Wuhan National New Energy and Intelligent Connected Vehicles Base. It includes five towers and two shared halls in the north and south.
From a distance, it looks like five giant spring bamboo shoots emerging from the ground; symbolizing the idea that the digital economy has sprouted like bamboo shoots in WHDZ.
Chunsun has been built using BIM digital technology. Covered by a 5G communication network, it is planned that the building will have unmanned retail supermarkets, unmanned printing facilities, shared charging and other intelligent commercial services.
In the future, it will also attract "digital intelligence network terminal" industrial chain innovation enterprises to settle there.
Chunsun will introduce a variety of self-driving vehicles such as unmanned sweepers, sales vehicles, and express vehicles.
In order to provide convenience for commuters, a total of four "Chunsun" self-driving buses have been put into trial operation, carrying people to Chuanjiangchi Station on Metro Line 16 free of charge.
In recent years, WHDZ has seized the opportunity of industrial transformation, vigorously promoted the growth of its digital industry, and accelerated the development of a digital economy innovation demonstration zone.
In 2020, the zone built 609 5G signal base stations. In 2021, more than 550 5G signal base stations will be built, and within two years, WHDZ will strive to achieve strong 5G network coverage across the entire zone.
