C. C. Chan,Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering,Fellow of Royal Academy of Engineering,U. K.,and Founding Chairman of World Electric Vehicles,delivered a keynote speech entitled "Intelligent Vehicle Promotes 4th Industrial Revolution" through a cloud connection. In his speech,he mentioned that the sustainable and healthy development of new energy vehicles should follow four principles. The first is innovation-driven development; the second is two-wheel-driven,policy-driven and market-driven development; the third is good products,good infrastructure,good business models; the fourth is network convergence: the combination of transportation network and energy network.

Ye Shengji,Chief Engineer and Deputy Secretary General of China Association of Automobile Manufacturers,pointed out in the keynote speech entitled "Big Data Empowers the Innovation and Development of Intelligent Vehicles" that the future development of the intelligent vehicles industry needs strong data support. Taking intelligent driving as an example,the current data of a single vehicle model is far from meeting the multi-billion-level digital accumulation required for future autonomous driving above L4,and the industry has not yet formed an effective data sharing ecosystem. Considering this situation,the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers is actively building an ecological platform for automotive big data based on the block chain technology architecture to provide the industry with solutions for automotive manufacturers' data interaction and sharing.

Feng Xingya,LTD.,stressed that intelligent vehicles are a new "species" closely related to the national and local attributes in his speech entitled "New Opportunity,New Challenge,and New Achievement — Chinese Brand Vehicles Embrace a New Era of Intelligent Vehicles". China has huge market capacity. With the rapid development of road infrastructure,innovative business models,5G system,artificial intelligence software and other advantages under the new infrastructure policy,enterprises need to give priority to the development of bicycle intelligence based on their own conditions. They also expect the government to speed up the construction of intelligent road infrastructure,and cooperate with the government to jointly promote the accelerated implementation of bicycle intelligence and vehicle-road coordination in different scenarios.

Li Keqiang,Professor of Institute of Vehicle and Transportation in Tsinghua University,Director of State Key Laboratory of Automotive Safety and Energy Conservation,and Chief Scientist of National Intelligent Networked Automotive Innovation Center,delivered a speech entitled "The ICV Innovation Development Strategy and Practice". He said that at present,the whole industry is focusing on the related elements of intelligent vehicles,such as vehicle,road,cloud,management and map,bringing together high-quality innovation resources of the technology chain and industrial chain,breaking through common key core technologies,promoting the establishment and improvement of relevant policies,regulations and standards and establishing the physical system architecture of intelligent vehicles.

Jin Shuanggen,Member of Academia Europaea,and Member of Russian Academy of Natural Sciences,mentioned in his speech entitled "Application and Challenges of Beidou/ GNSS+5G in Intelligent Transportation" that for all satellite navigation systems,there is a common problem,that is,satellite signals cannot pass through roofs and bridge decks. Once the signals are blocked,there is nothing to be done. The integration of Beidou/GNSS+RS and 5G is a good solution,which forms a situation of "outer satellite and inner 5G",so as to realize seamless connection of time and space information services from indoor to outdoor.

Dr. Karl Fuchs,pointed out in his speech entitled "Intelligent Connected Vehicle: Centralized High-Performance Computer and Core Enabler Software" that high-performance controllers will become the core of intelligent vehicles,and can decouple software and hardware,and can help us realize frequent software release and enable software to iterate and update as soon as possible.

During the conference,the Think Tank Closed-door Meeting of the World Intelligent Vehicle Conference 2020 invited academicians,experts and entrepreneurs to discuss together Guangzhou's intelligent vehicle industry planning and share their advice on how to develop the intelligent vehicle industry in the Greater Bay Area and in China at large from such fields as ecological industry chain,big data,artificial intelligence and intelligent manufacturing.
