The concept of the fourth industry is based on the development of society, the promotion of new technological revolution and the rapid upgrading of industry. With the rapid development of new technologies and modes such as data consumption, e-commerce, modern supply chain and internet finance, the development of computer-based information processing equipment has also laid a material foundation for the development of knowledge industry. In this environment, people rethink and classify the division of industries, and the fourth industry appears.

In the next few decades, in addition to the huge growth of the three major industries, the data information industry is more important. Building a data intelligent enterprise requires energy and efforts, and it is also more strategic and forward-looking.
