Over 80% of Taizhou’s listed companies use DingTalk; Dinghui will focus on AI upgrades for the automotive and manufacturing industries.

On November 12, DingTalk hosted the Ding Summit in Taizhou, Zhejiang Province. The summit, themed "The Way of Working in the AI Era," brought together business leaders from industries such as automotive, manufacturing, and pharmaceuticals to explore how AI can be deeply integrated into industry scenarios, driving organizational transformation and business innovation.

Taizhou: Digital Transformation on the Manufacturing High Ground

Taizhou is an important manufacturing hub and a stronghold of private enterprise in Zhejiang Province. In particular, the city is rapidly advancing toward becoming a "nationally renowned new energy vehicle industry base," thanks to its complete industrial chain, strong innovation capabilities, and supportive policies, especially in fields like new energy vehicles.

Statistics show that more than 80% of listed companies in Taizhou are using DingTalk to varying degrees for daily operations and management. Companies such as STO Express, a Fortune China 500 company; Guming, a new-style tea brand; Yanggo Technology, a "specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative" small giant; Zhejiang Nature, an outdoor sports equipment manufacturer; Weixing Group, a leading apparel accessories company; and Crystal Optics, a top optical component firm, are all leveraging DingTalk to drive organizational transformation and AI-powered process reengineering.

According to Ma Haijun, General Manager of DingTalk's Southern Zhejiang Region, from STO Express's smart logistics network to Guming's flexible supply chain, from Crystal Optics's integrated collaboration to Weixing Group's intelligent safety management, companies are using DingTalk to build a new type of organizational structure characterized by "data-driven decision-making and evidence-based execution." Many manufacturing enterprises are using DingTalk's AI capabilities to enable intelligent decision-making in areas such as production scheduling, quality control, and supply chain coordination.

Corporate Practices: AI Empowers Industry Scenarios

Several globalized companies from Zhejiang Province shared their best practices in the AI era at the summit.

Youcheng Holdings Group

As a global automotive parts supplier, Youcheng Holdings Group exports molds to 27 countries and regions worldwide. Li Xiaochun, CIO and General Manager of Youcheng Technology, introduced the application of the "DingTalk AI Scheduling Assistant." This tool can transform heterogeneous data from different systems, devices, Excel spreadsheets, and manual entries into standardized, structured, high-quality data.

Based on this data, the AI scheduling assistant enables "intelligent data inquiry," providing real-time answers about production status, order progress, and material and equipment conditions; delivers "data insights" to proactively identify anomalies and risks; and supports "one-click scheduling," where AI generates multiple feasible plans and compares them for optimization. Li Xiaochun noted, "Tasks that are highly repetitive, experience-based, and rely on routine reasoning are the ideal scenarios for AI Agents to enter."

Dingli New Materials Technology Co., Ltd.

Dingli New Materials, a specialized, refined, distinctive, and innovative enterprise, provides solutions to over 20,000 wood product companies worldwide each year. Zhou Chuanyi, Director of Information Engineering, shared the architecture for building a unified digital foundation based on DingTalk and the Yida platform, as well as the deep application of DingTalk AI Tables, Intelligent Finance, and AI Voice Recorder in areas such as vehicle management, campus recruitment, expense control processes, and data insights. These tools have enabled cross-system data integration, closed-loop approvals, risk alerts, and decision support, significantly improving operational efficiency and management transparency.

He specifically mentioned that DingTalk AI Tables have enabled intelligent campus recruitment: students independently fill out resumes, and the system automatically collects and cleans the data, solving the problem of scattered resumes across multiple platforms. The system's ability to categorize, summarize, and perform pivot analysis has made campus recruitment 50% more efficient.

DingTalk A1: A Hit Domestic AI Hardware Product Makes Its Debut

The DingTalk A1, which quickly became a hit domestic AI hardware product after its launch, drew significant attention at the summit.

Liu Yiping, Product Manager of DingTalk A1, said, "The way we work in the AI era cannot be separated from AI hardware." This AI voice recorder leverages DingTalk's AI Voice Recorder and large model capabilities, featuring more than 200 scenario-specific analysis templates. It is suitable for scenarios such as meetings, interviews, psychological counseling, legal consultations, customer visits, and job interviews. It can efficiently handle voice recording, transcription, translation, summarization, and analysis, and integrates seamlessly with DingTalk workflows, earning it the reputation as an "AI office神器."

Compared with similar products on the market that cost over 1,000 yuan, DingTalk A1 focuses on cost-effectiveness. Just over two months after its launch, it topped both the Tmall and Douyin Double 11 charts, leading the trend of affordable, accessible domestic AI hardware.

Expert Perspective: AI Is a Must-Answer Question for Corporate Survival

Wu Che, a member of the Zhejiang Provincial Digital Economy Expert Committee, pointed out, "AI is not an optional choice—it is a must-answer question for corporate survival." He emphasized that companies must elevate AI to the strategic, skill, and business process levels, driving resources toward AI, ensuring widespread employee use of AI, and deeply integrating AI into business operations to ultimately achieve performance growth.
