CCTV:
The theme of this year's World Internet Conference · Internet Development Forum is "Digital Empowerment Creates a Better Tomorrow: Building a Community with a Shared Future in Cyberspace." What are the considerations behind this theme? Thank you.
Zhao Zeliang:
Just as I mentioned in my introduction, "Building a Community with a Shared Future in Cyberspace" has been a permanent theme of the World Internet Conference. This year, the theme was specifically titled "Digital Empowerment Creates a Better Tomorrow: Building a Community with a Shared Future in Cyberspace." There are three considerations for this theme:
First, we want the event to fully represent general global concerns as to what the future of the internet holds, reflect the power of the internet and other information technologies in preventing and controlling the COVID-19 epidemic and the restoration of social life, and display our resolute confidence in using digital technologies to respond to the challenges of the epidemic and in creating a better future.
Second, we want the event to embody the spirit of openness and cooperation. We want to convey the message that China will work with the world to promote digital cooperation and make global cyberspace a more inclusive and balanced place and a place beneficial to all.
Third, we want the event to embody China's wisdom and contributions in the promotion of internet development and governance and fully display China's sense of responsibility in promoting the building of a community with a shared future in cyberspace.
