Give information, an interpretation - Visit the National Information Center Deputy Director Hu Xiaoming 2002-4-28 Computer World Network ● The birth of excellent enterprises must have a good company to bring an excellent business before the informationization.
● Informatization is a behavior amplifier, if you are smart, it enlays your smart; if you are stupid, it will enlarge your stupid. The same truth is the same.
● For those companies that have been managed, there is no real understanding of information, the reality is that there is very little due to postponement of information, but because of the misinterpretation of information, the push up of the collapse is all.
● Different countries, different stages will have different information focus, but in any case, the basic work is not in the past. At present, China is urgently needed is the lesson of the commercial database. The development of commercial databases not only improves the size of the information service industry, but more importantly, promoting the efficiency of the national economy related industry efficiency.
The deputy director Hu Xiaoming, deputy director Hu Xiaoming, is in a sunny morning, and it is important to explore a meeting on the construction of Internet information resources. When we talked about the recent report on the media on information, Hu Xiaoming decided to talk about the informationization of the current in full swing. Hu Xiaoming repeatedly said that the reporter: "I hope that the community should not mislead users. For many issues in informationization, people need criticism and look at it."
Informatization is to apply double-edged swords, the same products, solutions to different users, which is likely to have a very different effect; in other words, different sessions, information technology, products, and program quality of the manufacturer are not vendors. But the user. This is a problem that people generally feel confused, and this also means that information is not technically non-technical, product, and solutions to solve problems. Now, this truth is very clear, Hu Xiaoming hopes that people can understand informationization from the root.
Reporter: You feel that one of the misunderstandings of informationization is not recognizing environmental issues, why?
Hu Xiaoming: The ability of computer systems to handle complex environments is limited, the environment is too complicated, and the computer is certainly not eating. Therefore, for informationization, our measures should be transformed into the environment, "standardize the environment", and the result of transformation is to make the environment simple and specific. For a good restaurant, a Chinese restaurant is much more complicated than McDonald's complexity, so management is much more complicated. The description of the Chinese food is blurred, such as adding a little salt, properly warming, the same as a dish, the taste is different in different restaurants, McDonald's is different, how many grams of water, how many choices, It is very clear, so you can't find a different McDonald's food in the world, different tastes. McDonald's technology, product standardization, management is simple, it is also easy to efficient, benefit, and form a huge industry. Why is now the low success rate of ERP, the root cause is that the complexity of the application environment has transcended system and technicians and even managers can regulate. This problem is very important. If you don't resolve, the information is going to fail.
Reporter: There is indeed this problem, then what do you think should be solved?
Hu Xiaoming: IBM has made E-Business, and there is a concept called E-Commerce, which looks almost, in fact, there is a fundamental difference. I understand that E-Business "Business" is based on daily office, which is made from small things. It is a means of effective improvement work; E-Commerce's "business" is big, basically ERP, CRM, Not anyone has the ability, not anyone can succeed. I think that informationalization must start from small things, we must start from the foundation, there is a foundation, standardized, and it will be said. In a fair, e-mail may have the greatest contribution to informationization, because it is very practical, specifically, it has benefited people's work and daily exchanges. I think many people think that informationalization can bear the hundred diseases, think that the large system can solve everything, this concept is wrong. Reporter: What you mean is that information should be a process of gradually developing, gradually growing, and the result should be simple, effective. How do you evaluate the current informationization?
Hu Xiaoming: I will give an example, the information of the office is very chaotic, you have made it clean up and make a class, which is managing; the original folder, now use a computer, even the management system, from function upgrade to auxiliary decision This is an improvement in management means and improves management efficiency. Nothing did, I hope that a large system will be auxiliary decision, which is unrealistic.
Reporter: Informatization is not simply technical issues, this truth understands the boss of many companies understand, but these companies do not do this quality, personnel, information, information, do not do it? What should I do?
Hu Xiaoming: The birth of outstanding enterprises must be before informationization, how to create an excellent business is an entrepreneur, in which information will provide some convenience. However, entrepreneurs do not want to know how to do outstanding companies, hoping that informationization can bring an excellent businesses. For excellent companies, informationization will make it more perfect; and informationization often causes disaster for management chaos.
Informatization is a behavior amplifier if you are smart, it enlays your cleverness; if you are stupid, it will enlarge your stupid. This is the same as the company. So, informatization does not do it in the snow, it doesn't have that capabilities at all.
Reporter: Nowadays, there are many companies, and the industry tries to suppress the user's operation through information, and corruption behavior should be regulated, preventing the benefits, because after the system, it feels like losing the space of the cheating.
Hu Xiaoming: The starting point of this idea is good, but it is clear that the problem of solving transparetion is still to manage through business management. For example, this transformation is not all, never accepting acceptance is a war. Because there is inevitable to reassign it. If people resist the system in their hearts, they will have many reasons and means to hinder the normal operation of the system. Therefore, the information is fundamentally to resolve management issues, and management problems should be solved by management means, don't go upside down . In other words, management change is a war, informationization can help companies implement and consolidate this results, but it has no ability to participate in this war.
