High-quality information and consumption promotion pilot
Promoting information consumption is a groundbreaking and exploratory innovation project. Not only does not have ready-made experience to follow, but it also needs bold innovation to try ahead and explore the appropriate institutional mechanisms and methods. In August 2013, the State Council's "Several Opinions on Promoting Information Consumption and Expanding Domestic Demand" (hereinafter referred to as "Opinions") was formally released. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology attached great importance and went all out to implement the "Opinions" carefully. Starting from the end of 2013, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has selected two batches of pilot cities (counties, districts) for information consumption in the country, totaling 104, and issued the “2014 Main Points for the Construction of the First National Cities for Information Consumption Pilot Cities (Counties and Districts)â€. In September 2014, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the China Development Bank signed the "Financial Cooperation Agreement for Promoting the Construction of Information Consumption Pilot Cities" to support the construction of key information-related consumer projects. Thanks to the strong promotion and effective advocacy of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, new models of information consumption and new business conditions have emerged in all parts of the country.
