Tencent blockchain polar Penguin
A vigorous "blockchain movement" is sweeping like a wave, threatening everyone around. From last year to this year, the debate over blockchain has never stopped. Is blockchain, as its advocate Chen Weixing said, the "spring of mankind", the "antidote to the global economic collapse", or as his doubter Zhu Xiaohu said, "blockchain is a fake outlet, and there is nothing left except currency speculation"
we think that this instry needs standards, otherwise we will talk about blockchain for a long time, and the concept of talking is not the same, and even some enterprises claim to make their own blockchain, and they just change the database. With the authoritative standard of trusted blockchain, we can screen out the enterprises that obviously sell dog meat, and let the enterprises that really do blockchain technology get endorsement
Ce: how does Tencent solve the problem of talent scarcity in the blockchain field
CAI Yige: our technical talents are basically transformed from Tencent. The blockchain instry is very new, and few people have done blockchain. Just like the arrival of mobile network in those years, it's very difficult for you to recruit Android and IOS developers. We all cultivate ourselves
blockchain payment is not made by that company,
unless it is led by the state.
In the field of blockchain, Tencent's blockchain is developing relatively fast. As early as 2015, Tencent's blockchain team has begun to pay attention to blockchain technology, and has carried out independent research and development. As of December 31, 2019, the number of Chinese invention patent applications related to Tencent's blockchain has reached 990, ranking first among Chinese application enterprises. After several years of research and development and exploration, Tencent blockchain has achieved good results in both the development of underlying technology and the construction of instrial ecology
the history of Tencent blockchain development:
there are no technical problems, just whether to do it or not. "
CAI Yige, the head of Tencent's blockchain, replied when asked what technical problems he encountered. On reflection, he added that technologies that have made breakthroughs in theory, such as secure multiparty computing and zero knowledge proof, have not yet been engineered. This is a problem for the whole instry
for Tencent blockchain, the bigger problem seems to be finding more scenarios“ "Blockchain + supply chain finance" is the scene Tencent vigorously promotes this year
at the end of last year, the supply chain financial service platform Xingbei cloud chain was released, and its underlying blockchain technology is the support provided by Tencent blockchain. In addition, Tencent also invested in uniifnance, which is Tencent's only strategic investment in supply chain finance
in the past nearly a year, how has the scene and Tencent blockchain progressed
today, after the founding meeting of the blockchain policy and law research group and the release of the white paper on blockchain and supply chain finance, odaily planet daily interviewed Cai Yige, general manager of Tencent's blockchain business, and Ji Kun, general manager of lianyirong company
according to the two people, in less than a year of operation, the flow of micro enterprise chain platform on the chain is about tens of billions of transactions, 12 banks are connected, and more than 70 enterprises are involved, involving energy, automobile, manufacturing and other instries. Now the penetration supplier level is about level 1 and level 2, which can rece the interest rate by 2-8 points compared with the traditional bank loans
micro enterprise chain platform is a key case of Tencent in supply chain finance. Tencent mainly provides the underlying technology infrastructure, including the underlying self research alliance chain, real-time clearing and account receiving capabilities; Lianyirong is mainly responsible for integrating resources and promoting the platform
supply chain finance is the head scene of blockchain, but in fact, the real implementation is still very slow, which makes people doubt the real change it brings. The two do not deny that this business is in a very early stage, and it will take some time to promote enterprises to join. However, they both believe that "after joining the blockchain, supply chain finance will actually have a very big change."
what the daily planet wants to know more is that with the addition of the supply chain finance after the blockchain, will enterprises and financial institutions be more willing to join? And can this rece the balance of SME loans and increase the number of enterprises that get loans
"(Supply Chain Finance) the biggest difficulty lies in the participation of financial institutions, because they can provide funds in the market." Ji Kun believes that the addition of blockchain can enhance the willingness of banks to enter the supply chain finance
in his opinion, the traditional banks of the four major banks are quite keen on the layout of blockchain. He said that the decentralization of supply chain finance itself and the authenticity of underlying assets are very difficult to check. Traditional financial institutions are not the mainstream, and there is no way to achieve penetration before. Therefore, banks can only get the data of primary suppliers, but the secondary and tertiary suppliers may need financing most. Now blockchain + supply chain finance has changed the credibility of multi-level data flow, strong credit can not be separated, and the synchronization efficiency of information, so that small, medium and micro enterprises which were difficult to obtain loans from financial institutions in the supply chain in the past can also obtain loans. The bank has always wanted to do the business of secondary and tertiary suppliers, and joined the blockchain to better control its own data
as for promoting enterprise use, Ji Kun said that many enterprises need some time to accept it, but because the block chain of supply chain finance mainly replaces the original role of commercial bills, the circulation of commercial bills itself has some pain points, such as counterfeiting, so they are relatively easy to accept
when the daily planet asked about how to ensure the authenticity of the information on the chain, Cai Yige said that different information can be cross verified, but he also thought that this was a problem indeed, and the use of blockchain could not guarantee the authenticity of the information on the chain. Therefore, the first step of the micro enterprise chain is actually accounts receivable. It is true to use invoices to protect the underlying assets. With the electronic business system of small and medium-sized enterprises, it will go deeper in the future
he added that blockchain can also improve the efficiency of information synchronization“ I think it's the control of information. In the case of centralization, even if you have information, you can tamper with it. "
with the focus of Tencent blockchain this year, we naturally want to know the future plan. However, Cai Yige's answer is the same as that at the beginning: "we can't talk about the plan. We will continue to think about the scenarios under which the blockchain can play its value."
about the development of this area:
first, we must choose the right scene, and we must find experts in this instry
Secondly, it should be in line with the nature of technology and have commercial value Thirdly, it should meet the needs of future development Fourthly, the architecture should be fully integrated with other technologies to solve the problemthe concept of blockchain should be a new outlet, specifically more use of network search, increase knowledge, network search results - Tencent blockchain development to you
