/ Newsflash/With two weeks left in 2017, Fast Company's annual Fast Company conference is here. As a benchmark activity leading China's commercial innovation, every year Fast Company conference follows the same theme of "Reloading -- zero restart", which is also a ritual requirement of Fast Company every year, forcing every innovator to "Reloading". Leave behind the events of the year that is about to end and welcome the New Year with a fresh attitude.
This year, Fast Company extended its theme to "T.O.T: Travel Over Time," inviting innovators to reflect on their past and future behavior over a longer time horizon -- 40 years ahead and behind -- to "refresh themselves" in a larger sense.
As the only mainstream media to focus on the whole business from the perspective of innovation and creativity, Fast Company has a unique media perspective covering many fields such as technological innovation, ethical economics, leadership and design. Dedicated to exploring the universal value of business innovation, Fast Company insists on presenting the innovative steps of business people and companies in the form of two lists each year.
"Fast Company" adheres to the principle of not talking about non-creative creation and innovation to plan the annual conference topics. This conference invited at least 50 top Chinese innovators from various fields such as artificial intelligence, big health, intelligent manufacturing, future travel, big data, etc., to share their innovation experience on the stage, return to zero, and then open a new self.
The following is the dry goods organized by Fast company for you, please note to check ~

The battle of God's hand
Liu De
Co-founder and Vice President of Xiaomi Technology
The theme of Liu De's speech was "The War of God's Hands". As the founder of Xiaomi ecological chain, Liu De transformed from a teaching teacher to a commercial sniper. In Liu's view, it all comes from a few predictions made in the first two decades. From the internationalization of China to the changes brought by the mobile Internet to e-commerce, and then to the Internet of Things era, every era needs driving force, and Xiaomi ecological chain is exactly seizing the Internet of Things, consumption era (consumption upgrade) and channel dividend and other opportunities to promote the next decade,
So what are the opportunities in the next ten years? According to Liu, both smart manufacturing and cultural industries have huge opportunities. Liu said that whether you are an individual or a company, you should always take the time to make a precise judgment and imagination about tomorrow and the next ten or twenty years, otherwise, you will miss a huge opportunity.
The digital future of life technology
Li Yingrui
Co-founder of Carbon Cloud Intelligence
In today's age of medical science, human beings still have to resign themselves to fate in the face of major diseases. But the 21st century is the century of biology, and we can intervene in the course of life by recognizing the laws of life. Converting life into digital information and building mathematical models. This model is not about looking back in time, it's about predicting the future, for example, we can predict diseases and prevent them from happening.
As human beings, we are also a part of the human community. The aggregation of life data is not only useful for ourselves, but also provides a very good reference for everyone else on Earth to choose their future. As technology changes and advances, life science numbers are ushering in such an era.

Four leaders from Guangzhou unicorn companies and future unicorn companies introduced their own companies and the secret of growing into a unicorn in the way of "three questions of security". Zhuozhi cross-border e-commerce, which accounts for 84% of cross-border orders in Guangzhou, has been incubated as a traditional logistics company and grown in a wild way on the back of new retail, consumption upgrading and foreign trade innovation. Li Jinling, president of Zhuozhi Cross-border E-commerce, said that Zhuozhi cross-border e-commerce hopes to enable more small and medium-sized enterprises to connect with the new retail outlet through this brand new business form.

Huiju.com, an intellectual property trading platform, was the biggest winner. Zhuozhi cross-border e-commerce and Zhongke Jiantooth, which focuses on oral medical devices, have both turned to Huiju.com, an enterprise service platform for sharing intellectual property resources, showing the importance of intellectual property in future business innovation.
The list of 25 Best Innovative Cities in China (Beta version) was released
Also released at the conference was the Beta version of the 25 Best Innovative Cities of China 2017 list, which was analyzed by Lu Chuyang, CEO of Kuaiyang Company. This list refers to Google PageRank algorithm, which translates the algorithm into hyperlinks, weights and random visitors. Simply understood, when an enterprise conducts business in a certain city, it means that there are hyperlinks between the two. The more frequent the business, the more hyperlinks.
The hyperlink contains the "gene fragment" of urban innovation and the hyperlink status between them, which can be used as the basis to evaluate the innovation capability of a city. The reason for the Beta version is that we hope that more companies will join together to improve the list in the coming year, and that more real data will be used to reflect the real innovation capacity of cities.
Discover Guangzhou unicorn list announced
The final results of the "Discover Guangzhou Unicorns" project, sponsored by Guangzhou Science and Technology Innovation Commission and co-organized by Guangzhou Innovation Enterprise Association and FastCompany, were also announced at the FastCompany Conference.

Mr. Koala special presentation: "Shop" business index released
Big companies can IPO, why can't small brick-and-mortar stores IPO? By quantifying physical stores, Mr. Kaola created the concept of "store operation index", which mines the operation index of physical stores through five dimensions of data, such as transaction volume, data, subdivision usage, data mining of local shops and real estate data mining.
At the meeting, Mr. Kaola founder Lei Yong shared some interesting data that Mr. Kaola has found: for example, through the operation of physical stores, Beijing people have the strongest spending power, the most local rich, and the highest price of customers. In the catering industry, Guangzhou has the largest offline consumption, while Hangzhou has the largest online payment ratio of more than 56%.
As for the outlook of the next five years, Mr. Kaola wants to build a physical store equity trading platform to provide a good value reference system for those who want to participate in the operation of physical store franchises.
