Deep cultivation within their respective industries is becoming an increasingly popular choice among platform-based players. This is a notable characteristic of the post-traffic era. Whether it's e-commerce platforms, food delivery platforms, or even transportation platforms, all are diving into the depths of industries. Through this approach, a new industry-led evolution is unfolding.

For instance, we now begin to see the presence of AI in these platform-based players; for example, we now start to witness the transformation of the industrial end in these platform-based companies; for example, we now begin to see the derivation and emergence of new business models in platform-based companies... As this trend continues to deepen, platform-based players will address their previous shortcomings in the industrial end, thereby truly propelling their development into a brand-new stage.

Observing the current transformations and upgrades of platform-based players, we may be able to discern some patterns and directions, thus uncovering more new possibilities for future development. So, how exactly are current platform-based Internet players setting sail into the deep seas of industries? And what experiences can we glean from their attempts?

Achieving Renewal Through AI

Observing the current transformations and upgrades of platform-based players, we notice a very intuitive (Note: ' intuitive ' is kept as is since it seems to be a placeholder or error in the original text; if it should be translated, it would typically be 'visible' or 'obvious') phenomenon: the increasing presence of AI. From AI recommendations to AI product selection, and then to AI content, among other AI-related elements, these have become new choices for further enhancing the efficiency of platform-based players. Ultimately, platform-based players are attempting to find new ways and methods of self-transformation by embracing AI, thereby achieving a self-renewal.

Through this renewal, platform-based players have achieved a more precise alignment between their own supply and consumer demand, and the efficiency of industrial operations has also undergone a brand-new enhancement due to AI. For platform-based companies that excel in efficiency, this undoubtedly (Note: ' undoubtedly ' is similarly kept; it would typically translate to 'undoubtedly') represents a brand-new upgrade.

In addition to transforming themselves through AI, we have also witnessed platform-based players leveraging AI to upgrade their internal products and services. By integrating AI into their existing products and services, platform-based companies have fundamentally transformed their offerings. This marks the beginning of a transformation where platform-based companies are no longer just Internet-centric entities but have evolved into AI-centric ones.

It is evident that, whether from the superficial operational logic or the underlying products and services, platform-based companies are leveraging AI to achieve a comprehensive and in-depth renewal. With this renewal, the C-end experience has been enhanced, new industrial demands have been stimulated, and new development dividends have been unlocked.

Taking Root in Industries to Address Shortcomings

When it comes to platform-based companies, people often think of their shortcomings in the industrial realm. With the advent of the industrial Internet era, especially as more and more players begin to focus on the industrial end, we see that platform-based companies are no longer free (Note: ' free ' would typically translate to 'detached' or 'aloof') from the industry but are increasingly taking root within it, becoming a part of the industry.

Some view this as a result of the integration of the virtual and the real, others see it as an inevitability of the industrial Internet, and still others regard it as the process of platforms returning to the industry. Regardless of the perspective, platform-based players are addressing their industrial shortcomings by taking root in the industry and propelling their development into a brand-new stage.

Practice has proven that, with their accumulations and precipitations from the Internet era, especially their advantages in digital intelligence, when these platform-based companies dive into the industry, they indeed bring renewal to the industry itself. Through this approach, platform-based players not only find new growth avenues but also fill in their final industrial gap, achieving synergistic development.

When platform-based companies begin to take root in the industry, they are no longer traditional platforms but have become an integral part of the industry. With this addressing of shortcomings, platform-based companies are no longer traditional platforms but have transformed into a new entity that combines the virtual and physical economies and can truly transform a myriad of industries. Compared to the saturation of the C-end, transforming various industries to find new growth points represents an incredibly vast blue ocean.

Activating Both Supply and Demand Ends with New Models

With the emergence of AI, we witness the appearance of numerous new industrial elements represented by large models and intelligent agents. Under the collective influence of these industrial factors, platform-based players are also beginning to find the correct ways and methods to activate both supply and demand ends by nurturing new models. If we were to summarize and define this model, it is evident that the new S2B2C-dominated model is becoming a novel business model for activating both supply and demand ends.

On one hand, C-end demands can be precisely and efficiently conveyed to the upstream supply end, which then leverages AI and other methods to achieve more efficient product development, further shortening product cycles, and once again efficiently meeting C-end demands. On the other hand, the supply end can directly and efficiently connect with and deliver products to C-end consumers, thereby further enhancing their own connection efficiency.

Ultimately, the new model is aimed at the transformation and upgrading of the industry itself. It is precisely because of this new model that we see platform-based players continuously taking root at both ends of the industry, achieving their own development by empowering both ends of the industry. With this development, new dividends begin to emerge at both ends of the industry.

Conclusion

With the gradual maturation of AI, especially as it begins to be applied to more and more industries and scenarios, the transformation and upgrading of platform-based players are once again elevated to a brand-new level. With this elevation, platform-based players are no longer traditional platform-based entities but have transformed into a hybrid of digital and physical economies. From this point onward, platform-based players bid farewell to their former selves and set sail into the new blue oceans of industries.
