The 13th series of black words commonly used in business situations in China includes ‘Unblock the business chain（链路打通）’, ‘Benchmark case（标杆案例）’, ‘Ecological integration（生态融合）’ and ‘Joint research and tackle（联合攻关）’.
1. Unblock the business chain（链路打通）
It means, in business cooperation, eliminating obstacles and breakpoints in a series of interrelated business links, from raw material supply, manufacturing, product sales to after – sales service, through process optimization and enhanced communication and collaboration. This enables the entire business chain to operate smoothly and achieve efficient coordination. For example, a clothing brand cooperates with fabric suppliers, processing factories, e – commerce platforms, and logistics enterprises. By establishing an information – sharing system and clarifying the responsibilities and time nodes of each link, it successfully unblocks the chain from fabric procurement to the delivery of clothing to consumers, greatly shortening the product delivery cycle.
2. Benchmark case（标杆案例）
It refers to a cooperation case in a specific field or industry that has outstanding successful performance, is widely recognized, and can be used as a reference standard for other enterprises or projects. These cases have remarkable achievements in business model innovation, market expansion, efficiency improvement, etc., providing reference examples for subsequent similar cooperations. For example, the smart store project jointly created by an Internet enterprise and a traditional retail enterprise has achieved a significant increase in sales by introducing technologies such as big data analysis and smart shelves. It has become a benchmark case in the industry, and many enterprises have followed suit.
3. Ecological integration（生态融合）
It means that between the business ecosystems constructed by different enterprises or organizations, through resource sharing, business collaboration, technology integration, etc., the boundaries are broken, and mutual penetration and promotion are achieved, forming a more extensive, diverse, and more competitive ecological system. Taking the intelligent automotive industry as an example, through ecological integration, automotive manufacturers, technology companies, travel service platforms, energy suppliers, etc. jointly create a new ecosystem covering multiple fields such as automotive R & D and manufacturing, intelligent driving technology, travel services, and energy refueling.
4. Joint research and tackle（联合攻关）
It means that in a cooperation project, in response to key technical problems, complex business issues, or major challenges encountered, all parties in cooperation organize their respective advantageous forces, concentrate resources, and cooperate in a coordinated manner to jointly carry out research and solution work. For example, in a cooperation project to overcome the problem of new energy battery endurance, multiple scientific research institutions and battery manufacturers jointly research and tackle. By integrating resources such as researchers and experimental equipment, they have made breakthrough progress after years of efforts.
