On September 27, 2026, Wang Daiming put forward the judgment that state-owned enterprise digital technology companies may fail to seize AI opportunities due to problems with products, talent, and organizational mechanisms. A report published by Huxiu the same day presented the relevant background: the online rumor of a "wave of bankruptcies among state-owned enterprise digital technology companies" has been exaggerated, and multiple employees of central state-owned enterprise digital technology companies said they had not received layoff notices; however, the declining weight of qualifications in bidding and stricter oversight of subcontracting have already caused gross margins in integration business to fall sharply. The report also noted that digital technology companies, being close to business SOPs, could have taken on industrial-grade vertical AI applications, yet because of a lack of productization capability and a large gap between pay and the external market (backbone employees who jump to foreign companies see their salaries quadruple), they find it difficult to seize the opportunity and may remain stuck for the long term as group IT outsourcing departments. There are currently no facts about subsequent developments.

Is a wave of closures hitting state-owned enterprise digital tech subsidiaries?
Rumors of a "wave of closures among state-owned enterprise digital tech subsidiaries" are exaggerated; employees at several central state-owned enterprise digital tech companies say they have not received layoff notices, but the declining weight of qualifications in bidding and stricter oversight of subcontracting have already caused gross margins in integration business to fall sharply. Digital tech companies are close to business SOPs and could have taken on industrial-grade vertical AI applications, yet due to a lack of productization capability and a large pay gap with the external market (backbone employees who jump to foreign companies see salaries quadruple), they find it hard to seize the opportunity and may remain stuck for the long term as group IT outsourcing departments.
