Jiangsu’s draft 15th Five-Year development plan for broadcasting and online audiovisual services proposes a new broadcasting-network construction project to upgrade infrastructure and industry capabilities. The draft calls for optimization and coordinated upgrades of cable, wireless, satellite and 5G networks, upgrades to wireless transmission and live-broadcast satellite management systems with access to the national unified network, and an adjustment of medium-wave transmission layout. It promotes compute–network integrate and proposes a provincial cultural computing center, explicitly supporting the provincial broadcaster and Jiangsu Cable to jointly build cloud–network–edge collaborative, multi-architecture compatible integrated digital-intelligence compute centers to optimize computing infrastructure for broadcasting and government service demand. The draft also supports the National Cultural Big Data East China regional center in building a trusted data-space technology base to provide trusted data-space services for cultural institutions.
