A few days ago, the Wenzhou City Development and Reform Commission drafted the "Fourteenth Five-Year Plan for Wenzhou Major Construction Projects (Draft for Comments)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan") and publicly solicited opinions from the public. In Chapter 5, "Building a Benchmark City for Reform and Opening-up", "Digital Reform Basic Engineering Construction" is listed as a separate section. One of the key indicators is that by 2025, the total number of data center racks will be 18,000+.
In recent years, Wenzhou has vigorously developed new technologies, new industries, new business forms and new models for the digital economy, and the digital economy has led to new results in the high-quality development of the economy and society.

The "Plan" expresses the need to accelerate the development of digital infrastructure, vigorously promote the construction of "5G+" infrastructure, and comprehensively promote the construction of 5G independent networking core networks.
