Adapting to remote working
Months of staying at home have changed our lifestyles. Online activities have boomed (急速发展) during the epidemic, from telecommuting (远程办公) and online education to online shopping and remote medical services.
For employees, especially white-collar workers, telecommuting tools such as video conferences and online office software make working from home more feasible. According to China Daily, Alibaba’s all-in-one mobile workplace DingTalk has served more than 10 million enterprises (企业) and over 200 million people. Tencent Meeting can provide free use for over 300 participants per audio or video conference.
Meanwhile, like DingTalk, many apps have been used by students and their teachers for online classes. “Cloud platforms” have also been provided by the Ministry of Education as an approach to continuing education among students across the country.
Internet companies, such as NetEase, recently opened a full chain of contactless recruitment (招募) through online resume submission (提交) and online interviews. The candidates (候选人) can also sign contracts (合同), attend training workshops, and even begin work over the internet.
Many museums and galleries in China have also been closed to visitors, but they have launched various online exhibitions to provide a creative touring experience for the country’s vast number of stay-at-home visitors.
To help prevent possible cross-infection (交叉感染) during the fight against the novel coronavirus, virtual (虚拟的) hospitals have been established. For instance, the Tianjin Medical University General Internet Hospital has rolled out (开展) a series of services, including online inquiry (问诊), online prescribing (开处方) and drug delivery.
According to Raymond Wang, partner at global consultancy firm Roland Berger, the outbreak has further proved the importance of the internet and digital economy. He said that the outbreak would improve social efficiency and the digital economy, remote working, and online education. “This is also a big opportunity for China’s technology and business model innovation (创新) – the foundations of the digital economy,” he added.
