Two pieces of news from home have finally made people understand why we are so tough this time! The first piece of news: Taobao has topped the U.S. app download list at second place. In this round of the tariff war, America probably never imagined that we would turn a crisis into an opportunity. To stock up on more Chinese goods, a large number of overseas netizens began to download Taobao, which directly pushed it to the second place on the U.S. download list. At the same time, it climbed to second place in countries like Canada and the UK, and even ranked first in the French market! The second piece of news: Alibaba Qwen leads in China's large model competitiveness report. The international authoritative institution Omdia recently released the "2025 China Commercial Large Model" vendor evaluation report. Alibaba has been awarded as a leader for the second consecutive year, ranking first overall in commercial basic model competitiveness, and topping the list in two core dimensions: model capability and execution capability. Coincidentally, not long ago, Stanford's "2025 Artificial Intelligence Index Report" also pointed out that Alibaba's model contribution ranks third globally. If one authoritative institution says that Alibaba Qwen is first, it might be due to favoritism, but multiple international authoritative reports all point out Alibaba Qwen's capabilities, proving that Alibaba indeed has some real skills in the AI large model field. This is indeed the case. Data shows that over 290,000 enterprises and developers have called Alibaba Cloud's Qwen large model API through the Bai Lian platform, including many top brands in the internet industry, new energy brands, smartphone giants, and other leading companies in various industries. Besides落地application and industry-leading empowerment, Alibaba is also quite capable in open-source large models. By now, Alibaba has open-sourced more than 200 Qwen large models, with over 100,000 derivative models of Qwen worldwide, surpassing America's Llama to become the world's leading open-source large model. A large model is essentially about two aspects: application and ecosystem. Alibaba's successful landing applications have earned recognition from many top brands in various industries. Its excellent open-source capabilities not only defeated the United States but also created a high-quality AI ecosystem domestically, allowing more people and companies to participate in AI development. Judging from China's current capabilities in advanced manufacturing and AI research, China's comprehensive national strength far exceeds previous perceptions. It's just like someone who always thought they were the best in the world, but one day finds out that those who used to be inferior to them are now excelling in every aspect, even surpassing them. Naturally, they would feel anxious! For China, strong scientific and technological innovation capabilities and steadily upgrading manufacturing capabilities are the backbone and confidence of our country!
