The computing power center in Changchun city (Jilin Province), located in the Jingyue high-tech industrial development zone, serves as a key pillar of the digital transformation of this old industrial city.
If you enter the data center’s machine hall, neatly arranged rows of servers immediately catch your eye. Here, a wide variety of requests for computing power are processed—from industrial simulation modeling to training corporate large models—and enormous volumes of data are continuously handled.
Only four years ago, the construction of computing capacities for AI in the country was just gaining momentum, and the center in Changchun was built and launched in less than a year.
According to the director general of the center, Wang Lei, the project was implemented based on a collaborative model in which “the government sets the direction, state-owned companies invest in construction, and domestic manufacturers provide technological support.” To date, the center possesses large-scale high-performance computing capacities and ranks among the leaders among similar facilities nationwide. As the first large computing center operating in normal mode in Jilin Province, it has filled the gap in providing the region with large-scale high-performance computing resources.
During the construction planning, the decision was made to cooperate with Huawei, ensuring independence and control over the entire chain—from chips and frameworks to models. The center steadfastly follows the course of developing domestic technologies. A Huawei technical team constantly works at the center, helping enterprises solve tasks related to model transfer and technology adaptation.
One of the enterprises in the aerospace sector uses the center’s computing resources to train its models, which has significantly increased the efficiency of data analysis. The Changchun Institute of Geography of the Chinese Academy of Sciences accelerated breeding research with the help of the center, shortening development times. In addition, large enterprises from other provinces have also established long-term cooperation with the center.
According to calculations by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, every yuan invested in computing power yields 3–4 yuan of GDP growth. In Changchun, this multiplicative effect continues to strengthen.
To date, the Changchun Computing Power Center serves nearly 200 organizations and has helped about 40 party and government institutions, as well as enterprises, to deploy large models. From administrative management and agriculture to pharmaceuticals and remote sensing, domestic computing technologies quietly but reliably support the intelligent transformation of a wide range of industries.
