This book is an authentic multidimensional history of the car industry in China. 40 years, attempts were made to change the status quo, such as breaking the 220% tariff barrier and setting limits when opening up to international car companies. It was not until the beginning of the 21st century that ordinary people in China started to own cars. This led to rapid growth of the Chinese car industry since the 21st century. However, the industry is facing its biggest challenge due to conflict between China's economic and social values. The author, as a media person chronicling cars in China, has witnessed, experienced, and even participated in the development process of the industry. Weaving in juicy tales, interesting details, and rare pictures, the readers are taken on an exhilarating ride through the story of cars in China.
This book provides in-depth results and case studies in innovation from actual work undertaken in collaboration with industry partners in Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC). Scientific advances and innovative technologies in the sector are key to shaping the changes emerging as a result of Industry 4.0. Mainstream Building Information Management (BIM) is seen as a vehicle for addressing issues such as industry fragmentation, value-driven solutions, decision-making, client engagement, and design/process flow; however, advanced simulation, computer vision, Internet of Things (IoT), blockchain, machine learning, deep learning, and linked data all provide immense opportunities for...
