Social Review: 'New, New, Three' Build an Open Platform for Global Innovation
Introduction: The "New, New, Three" approach to the world is not about squeezing the development space of other countries, but about making technological innovation more inclusive and inclusive. While some countries are still building walls and fortifications against the "New Three", the "New Three" are already roaring forward, with the sincerity of opening the door to innovation, to build an open and cooperative platform for the world
Just as the "New Three" are still spreading their popularity globally, the "New Three" composed of artificial intelligence (AI), robots, and innovative drugs are emerging one after another. In the 1990s, Chinese workers on the assembly line used sewing machines to create shirts that were shipped globally. Today, Chinese engineers in the laboratory are debugging large models, robot joints, and new anti-cancer drugs. From the "old three" and "new three" to the "new new three", this thread spanning decades outlines not only the upgrading route of Chinese manufacturing, but also the quiet evolution of China's role in participating in global division of labor.
Looking back at the process of Chinese manufacturing going global, it is actually an iterative history of cooperation models. In the past, the "old three" represented by clothing, furniture, and home appliances created affordable and high-quality brands for Chinese manufacturing. At that time, China mainly undertook the functions of large-scale production and processing manufacturing in the global industrial chain, playing the role of the "world factory"; In the 21st century, the "new three" represented by photovoltaic products, new energy vehicles, and lithium batteries have refreshed the world's understanding of Chinese manufacturing. It is no longer just selling products, but providing a "toolbox" for energy transformation. China has become an indispensable key link in the new energy industry chain and an important master of core technologies.
Nowadays, the emergence of the "New Three Types" indicates that China is accelerating its transition from a global manufacturing center to a global innovation hub, and achieving deeper integration between "Made in China" and "Created in China". China is beginning to provide more original technology, intelligent systems, and solutions to the world, and sharing more of the "intellectual dividend" and "innovation dividend" with the world. China's competitive advantage is no longer just about "how much can be produced", but increasingly reflected in its ability to define new products, open up new tracks, set new standards, integrate global resources, and continuously iterate and upgrade.
The trend of 'new, new, and three' towards the world is not a zero sum game. It is not squeezing the development space of other countries, but making technological innovation more inclusive and promoting local innovation ecology. Chinese robots shuttle around the clock in Thai hospitals, delivering drugs and samples with precision. In manufacturing powerhouses such as Germany, fully automated production lines independently developed by China have also emerged. The AI models of Chinese enterprises are used by overseas users for content creation, code writing, and medical image analysis. Chinese AI technology also helps Southeast Asian small and medium-sized enterprises achieve intelligent transformation, improving local e-commerce and logistics efficiency. In terms of innovative drugs, multiple varieties independently developed by China have entered the international market, bringing new hope to patients worldwide.
Similar stories have already occurred in the fields of photovoltaics, electric vehicles, and communication equipment. The Chinese photovoltaic industry has significantly reduced the global cost of clean energy, and China's new energy vehicles have transformed green travel from a high priced option for a few people to a mass consumer good. Like the "New Three", China's "New Three" today brings "accessible wisdom" to the world, making cutting-edge technology no longer a "limited edition luxury", and enabling more developing countries to acquire intelligence, automation, and advanced medical capabilities at an affordable cost. The "New, New, and Three" may be the most fiercely competitive track in the world, and China is not always leading in it. However, practice has proven that the concept of openness and inclusiveness has helped China's independent innovation capability to systematically leap forward.
While some countries are still building walls and fortifications against the "New Three", the "New Three" have already come roaring forward, with the sincerity of opening the door to innovation, to build an open and cooperative stage for the world. The Chinese AI open source community attracts global developers to co build: From July 13th to 19th, the weekly call volume of Chinese big models on the OpenRouter platform reached 36.11 trillion yuan, a month on month increase of 30.93%, ranking first in the world for 12 consecutive weeks; The Chinese robot industry chain is opening up its supporting facilities to global suppliers: In the first half of this year, China's industrial robot exports reached 6.29 billion yuan, with products sold to 141 countries and regions. The export value of surgical robots increased by 3.3 times; During the same period, the potential total amount disclosed in China's innovative drug authorization transactions was about 110 billion US dollars, forming a research and development cooperation network of "you in me, I in you" between Chinese innovative drug companies and multinational drug companies.
The 'New New Three' are not only Chinese products, but also global opportunities. The history of global industrial competition has repeatedly shown that closure inevitably leads to backwardness, and open innovation can win the future. China does not seek to "monopolize" the race track, nor does it intend to "squeeze anyone out of the field". Rather than being anxious within the 'wall', it is better to seize and respond to the opportunities and challenges of the times together, and jointly promote technological innovation such as artificial intelligence towards upward and beneficial development for humanity.
