2025 Global Digital Entertainment Industry Summit: New Quality Dynamics Leading Global Resonance

On July 31, 2025, the global digital entertainment industry will once again focus its attention on the Shanghai New International Expo Center. The China International Digital Entertainment Industry Conference (CDEC) Summit Forum will officially kick off under the theme "Gathering New Quality Momentum · Leading Global Resonance". This is not only an industry event but also a deep exchange and collision of the global digital entertainment ecosystem.

Against the backdrop of the deep integration of the digital economy and globalization, the digital entertainment industry has become an important force in driving global economic growth and cultural dissemination. Data shows that by 2024, the global gaming market scale will exceed $220 billion, and the scale of Chinese digital content going overseas will grow by more than 35% year-on-year. The CDEC Summit Forum is not only a forward-looking discussion on industry trends but also a practical declaration to promote collaborative innovation in technology, content, and globalization.

This conference will focus on two core topics: the drive of new quality productivity for industrial upgrading and the integration of digital industries in the context of globalization. It will gather top global enterprises, technology leaders, and content creators to jointly explore new paths for the high-quality development of the digital entertainment industry.

Smart Future: Technology Empowers a New Ecosystem for Industry

New productive forces are driving the high-quality development of the digital entertainment industry, led by technological innovation, centered on content innovation, and dominated by business model innovation, continuously giving rise to new sources of creativity, new application scenarios, and new market spaces, providing momentum for the advancement of quality and efficiency in the digital entertainment industry.

In recent years, technologies such as artificial intelligence, cloud-native engines, and real-time rendering have accelerated iteration and driven a comprehensive transformation of digital entertainment from content production to user experience. Intelligent content generation engines developed by some companies help small and medium developers significantly shorten game development cycles. The AI NPC technology launched by a well-known gaming company achieves dynamic simulation of character behavior through deep learning and has been applied in several top products. A certain chip company, through optimization of computing power in mobile chips, enables mobile games to achieve PC-level graphics quality and provides technical support for global products. New productive forces are no longer limited to a single technology or market but are forming an innovative network that radiates globally through the practice of human-machine collaboration, cross-industry integration, and cultural symbiosis.

Breaking Boundaries Together: Building a New Global Entertainment Link

In the wave of globalization, Chinese digital entertainment companies are employing a "technology + content" dual-engine strategy to expand into overseas markets, while exploring a balance between cultural integration and compliant operations.

A successful technology company that has been expanding overseas for 15 years has entered over 70 countries and regions worldwide based on a "global localization" strategy, with overseas shipments accounting for about 60%. It has over 300,000 retail stores globally. Another panoramic camera company occupies 67.2% of the global consumer-grade panoramic camera market, with annual revenue exceeding 4 billion yuan, and overseas revenue accounting for 80%. It has shifted from simply selling products to an ecological monetization model, with its official app gathering 2 million creators, where user-generated content feeds back 75% of the functional iterations.

Digital entertainment is not only a technological product but also a carrier of cultural dissemination. The national comic IP "Biao Ren" has sparked a wave of martial arts culture in the Southeast Asian market through multi-form development in animation, games, and derivatives. The popular historical drama "Jiu Chong Zi" has triggered heated discussions both domestically and internationally, not only sparking nationwide discussions on domestic platforms but also allowing overseas audiences to recognize the potential of Chinese-language series.

With the continuous integration of globalization and digitization, the digital entertainment industry has risen as a core economic engine driving the development of new productive forces, not only reshaping people's entertainment lives but also undertaking the important mission of promoting global economic and cultural exchanges.

The 2025 ChinaJoy will become an important stage to witness the infinite possibilities of digital entertainment, sailing towards a new global blue ocean with technology as the vessel and culture as the sail. This grand event not only showcases the latest achievements in the industry but also consolidates the innovative power of the global digital entertainment industry, pointing the way for future development.
