As the digital era approaches, Yingke is accelerating its “Digital Intelligence Law Firm” transformation and upgrading, with the aim of establishing a “Yingke Global One-Hour Legal Service Ecosystem” . The development strategy of the firm is also evolving from geographical business expansion to digital-intelligence transformation.

“2025 marks the tenth anniversary of the IDC China Future Enterprise Awards. With the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) and its deep integration across industries, we are witnessing an increasing number of enterprises transforming into AI-driven firms as they enter the era of digital operation. These enterprises are customer-centric, open to experiment and constantly enhancing their products, services and user experiences,” said Mr. Wu Lianfeng, Vice President and Chief Analyst at IDC China. “Yingke Law Firm is a remarkable example of such organizations.

In today’s ever-changing economic and social landscape, every industry is confronted with new challenges, and these changes also raise the expectations for China Entercom. As an innovative ICT service enabler, the company is committed not only to staying ahead of technological advancement and strengthening its core capabilities, but also to gaining deeper insight into industry transformation and accumulating practical experience.

As a result, more clients are partnering with China Entercom to explore efficient, flexible and future-ready models of digital and intelligent services.”

Harnessing AI to Pioneer a New Legal Service Model
As technology rapidly advances and the macro-environment evolves, the legal services industry finds itself in the midst of fierce competition, undergoing profound structural challenges in traditional legal services models. The first challenge stems from global economic integration, which has sharply increased demand for cross-border legal services. Law firms are now expected to demonstrate stronger global service capability, cross-regional collaboration, and the ability to deliver tailor-made services. Secondly, the rise of the digital economy has given birth to new legal issues, raising the standards of a firm’s knowledge base and learning agility. Finally, disruptive technologies such as AI are redefining the legal service eco-chain — from client acquisition and service scenarios to operational processes and service systems — prompting a comprehensive reconstruction and transformation.

The “YingFaBao AI Legal Space Station” integrates Internet of Things (IoT), new media, videos and AI to deliver timely, efficient and one-stop self-service legal solutions, which marks a groundbreaking innovation in the legal services sector. In response to this new wave of transformation, China Entercom leverages over two decades of ICT practical experience and its strengths in integrated “Cloud, Network, Security” services to empower the digital and intelligent development of the legal services industry with AI-driven solutions. On one hand, it enhances the performance of critical digital infrastructure through global network optimization and intelligent security protection; on the other hand, this strong foundation supports law firms in all dimensions, such as digital management upgrades and global expansion of their services.

Redefining Legal Services with Digital Intelligence
Yingke Law Firm is developing a global legal data platform in the hope of creating a worldwide legal services platform through promoting data sharing and interconnection. According to Ms. Sun Wen, Director of Global Board of Directors at Beijing Yingke Law Firm, “As the wave of digitalization transforms the legal sector, Yingke has remained focused on advancing through technological innovation and professional excellence. On the journey to evolve our service models through the dual engines of ‘LegalTech + AI’, we are delighted to have China Entercom as a trusted partner. Its profound technical expertise and extensive experience in supporting enterprises going global provide invaluable insight for our strategic development and transformation in this new era.”

China Entercom’s best practices in supporting enterprises “Going Global” and “Coming to China” have become a recognized benchmark. As a member of the CITIC Group, China Entercom upholds the service motto of “CITIC, Your Trusted Partner for Going Global and Coming to China”, and has long worked hand in hand with its parent companies, CITIC Telecom CPC and the Group, to extend service coverage to regions along the Belt and Road, the Middle East, BRICS nations and RCEP member countries.

– China Entercom’s Digital Transformation Success Case: H&H Group

CITIC Telecom International CPC Limited (CITIC Telecom CPC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CITIC Telecom International Holdings Limited (HKG: 1883) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, China Enterprise ICT Solutions Limited (China Entercom), and H&H Group (H&H Group) has forged a successful partnership, strengthening the Belt and Road initiative and embodying the service of “CITIC, your trusted partner for Going Global and Coming to China”, deepening the company’s strategy of connecting the world and fostering ecosystem collaboration. This partnership showcases how holistic information security and agile connectivity are achieved through a strengthened digital infrastructure, demonstrating how enterprises can excel in the global market by harnessing digital capabilities and embarking on a successful digital journey.

An Unbreakable Bond: From Biostime to a Globally Diversified Brand
Established as Biostime, H&H Group has overcome challenges and matured through various developmental phases, and more importantly, it has achieved remarkable digital transformation leveraging a suite of innovative technologies. In 2015, the Group strategically acquired Swisse, an Australian supplement brand, and therefore unlocked unprecedented opportunities for its development in the global market.

Amidst transformative shifts, China Entercom has excelled as the digital service partner of H&H Group since Biostime’s listing in Hong Kong in 2010, offering a comprehensive “Cloud-network-security” full-stack service that encompasses a mature network architecture and cloud resources. Leveraging international experience and reliable technical capabilities, China Entercom provides H&H Group with crucial ICT infrastructure. Over the years, China Entercom and H&H Group have laid a solid foundation for domestic and international global coverage, including the seamless connection of its digitized platforms, private line service and cloud voice service, enhanced the network architecture to ensure efficient collaboration and service stability of its global team.

Joe Liang, IT Operations and Information Security Head of H&H Group, stated that the Group faces challenges such as global expansion and ensuring information security in its digital transformation journey. However, leveraging China Entercom’s extensive ICT resources, global service expertise, robust network operation and maintenance, as well as in-depth industry insights, China Entercom successfully established a reliable platform for the Group’s businesses and facilitated its entry into the international market.

Joe emphasized that besides being a trusted service provider, China Entercom is also a partner working hand-in-hand with the Group. The partnership marked a new era in digital transformation, transcending technical level and delved into strategic planning, cost reduction, efficiency enhancement and other aspects. This profound partnership infused boundless momentum and dynamism into the globalization and diversification journey of the H&H Group.

Taking Cooperation to the Next Level: From Single Private Network to SD-WAN and IP-Guard
In today’s era of globalization, numerous Chinese enterprises have proactively set sail for the overseas market. As a leading company of the industry, H&H Group has also been steadily expanding its market abroad. Despite its successful expansion, challenges such as global management of operating systems, data interaction efficiency, system stability have emerged, prompting the H&H Group team to actively address these issues with determination.

Acknowledging the immediate needs of H&H Group, China Entercom customized a comprehensive solution that upgraded the single private network to SD-WAN and IP-Guard together with its parent companies, CITIC Telecom CPC and CITIC Group. This solution delivered exceptional results for the Group that fulfilled its goal of global business expansion with unparalleled security, stability, reliability, flexibility, scalability and highly efficient cross-cultural management capability. China Entercom empowered H&H Group to overcome various challenges during business expansion – from introducing systems and applications across different regions to enhancing data interaction and unified management, ultimately raising the operation efficiency and market competitiveness in the globe. Today, H&H Group has been thoroughly immersed in globalization and firmly rooted in the whole-family nutrition and wellness market.

“Zero Trust” Reinforcement: Building Globalized Security Frontier
H&H Group and China Entercom have established a nearly 15-year closely bonded partnership from 2010 to 2025. In the next phase, this partnership will mark a new milestone with Zero Trust. According to Joe, Zero Trust can be illustrated in three ways. First of all, ensuring data uniqueness is paramount, any unauthorized endpoint accessing the Group’s network, system or SaaS platform may pose a severe risk of data breach. The second concern is hackers may use illegal terminals to invade the network, which will constitute significant security vulnerabilities and require urgent response and remedial measures from the Group. At last, due to its notable market share and profitability of e-commerce in the world, especially in North America, there is an increasing demand for data security capabilities in the online business of the Group. With Zero Trust being the key technology, the partnership with China Entercom is expected to build a more solid security protection for the Group in terms of operation and maintenance.

Sam Guo, Sales General Manager of South China, China Entercom, further explained the integration of “Zero Trust” into the SASE solution, making it the cornerstone of TrustCSI™ 3.0, as China Entercom pioneers Zero Trust MSP (Managed Service Provider) services. The solution has 2 key features, first of all, by implementing Zero Trust technology, it significantly enhances the efficiency of users’ access to enterprises’ resources; secondly, through continuous monitoring measures, it effectively reduces cybersecurity risks and minimize operational downtime and financial loss resulting from security incidents. As for H&H Group, the day-to-day challenge lies in enhancing access efficiency and strengthening security defenses in its North American and interstate operation. Meanwhile, the pivotal role of security stakeholders in steering corporate growth and operation and development remains prominent.

Securing “Going Global” through Digital Intelligence Empowerment
With the ever-increasing threats of information security around the globe, enterprises going overseas like H&H Group are seeking to cope with the challenges and enhance their security protection level by improving intelligentized capabilities. The potential attack surface broadens as the globalization of enterprises accelerates, it underscores the increasingly symbiotic relationship between security and development.

Adan Zhan, Senior Director of Data Science and Innovation of China Entercom, underlined that China Entercom has implemented TrustCSI™ 3.0, a holistic protection solution focusing on defense and attack strategies to address the challenges faced by H&H Group. To enhance its defense capabilities, China Entercom continuously optimizes its intelligent algorithms for precise threat detection, leveraging anomaly detection technology, big data models and AI to combat evolving threats such as zero-day attacks, enabling AI-driven human-machine collaboration that surpasses AI in global security operations. In terms of attack strategy, adhering to the principle of “Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated”, China Entercom strategically deploys AI to automate the penetration testing tools, scanning enterprises’ threat and attack surface from various aspects. Conducting precise penetration test for in-depth analysis of existing assets is critical in addressing potential security vulnerabilities. By integrating attack and defense strategies with red-blue cybersecurity practices, China Entercom is committed to providing comprehensive security solutions for enterprises amidst the global digital transformation.

Win-Win Alliance: Striving together for New Opportunities in “Belt and Road”

In the ever-changing global market environment, it is a must to navigate the business with holistic planning and execution of corporate strategies, while combining digitization and innovation to power the engine. As a healthcare industry pioneer, H&H Group overcomes challenges and thrives.

During the journey of business expansion and globalization, H&H Group has been supported by China Entercom’s premium services that have achieved highly efficient network connection, stable operations and reliable protection of information security. Joe pointed out that the partnership between China Entercom and H&H Group is poised to tackle diverse global challenges, as H&H Group is a private enterprise with extensive international experience and global resources. In addition, this partnership is made possible not only by a solid technical foundation, but also on mutual recognition of each other’s brand and global reputation. Lastly, Joe suggested that enterprises interested in joining the “Belt and Road” Initiative should gain a clear insight into their own businesses in terms of the current IT operation and development needs, and partner with a well-established service provider such as China Entercom, achieving a win-win strategy.

To facilitate the “Belt and Road” Initiative, Guo proposed the following suggestions: carrying out in-depth research into the legal systems, policies, cultural characteristics and social needs of the targeted markets for a smooth project implementation; strictly complying with international standards and local laws and regulations by strengthening compliance and security management; proactively perform social responsibility in terms of environmental protection and community contribution; forming a network of information technology application innovation industry (ITAI) to collaborate with top-class worldwide partners, and fostering growth and development through resource sharing and complementary strengths. He believed that the best practices of these suggestions are fully manifested in the partnership between China Entercom and H&H Group. In the future, this partnership will continue to accelerate the “Belt and Road” Initiative and sustainable development.

CITIC Telecom International CPC Limited (CITIC Telecom CPC), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CITIC Telecom International Holdings Limited (HKG: 1883) is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, China Enterprise ICT Solutions Limited (China Entercom), and China Resources Beer (Holdings) Company Limited (CR Beer) have successfully deployed two benchmark projects – “CR Beer’s Green Factory with Digital Intelligence” and “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network”. These initiatives have left a significant impact and were recognized at the 2024 IDC Future Enterprise Awards China and DX Summit.

Both projects received notable accolades – “CR Beer’s Green Factory with Digital Intelligence” was honored with the prestigious “IDC’s Best in Future of Digital Industry Navigator Case” award, while “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network” was recognized with the “Best in Future of Connectedness of IDC Future Enterprise Awards China”. Notably, the latter project has been selected by IDC China as a contender for the prestigious IDC Future Enterprise Awards Asia Pacific, where it competes alongside other world class top-tier companies. This recognition signifies the widespread acknowledgment of these two projects by esteemed consulting institutions, industry experts, and the business community at large.

According to the IDC panel of judges, CR Beer has established itself as a benchmark company in the industry for its outstanding performance in smart manufacturing and green production. By extensively and proactively integrating innovative technologies into business scenarios, such as Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), the company has developed various types of technology applications to enhance their productivity and resource utilization with smarter production processes. Coupled with digitization, the company has optimized the supply chain management, reduced wastes of resources and improved the transparency of the entire value chain. An environmentally-friendly production mode has also been created by technological innovations, thereby decreasing wastewater discharge, effectively recycling energy and limiting carbon footprints. The two award-winning projects of CR Beer that highlight digital intelligence have not only demonstrated a win-win situation for economic and environmental benefits through digital transformation, but have also highlighted its role as an enabler of social and digital economic development, showcasing its corporate responsibility.

“It is such an honor to receive these two valuable awards, and the recognition of our efforts in digital transformation. We are further convinced to uphold longtermism, and to accelerate all-round development in terms of globalization, premiumization, greening, cultural innovation and so on,” said Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer. “We would not have developed these two benchmark projects and outcompeted others without our critical partner, China Entercom, and its innovative ICT technologies and solutions. Our partnership dates back to 2019, and our teams have gained mutual trust in those five years so that we have achieved successful digitization regarding innovative technology and business innovation services. Far beyond being a provider of technologies, solutions and services, China Entercom is the trusted partner of CR Beer’s digital transformation journey.”

Mr. Tao Zhi Bin, Deputy Director of Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer, said, “ At the IDC conference, CR Beer’s green factory with digital intelligence was honored “Future of Digital Industry Navigator Case”. This acknowledgement not only affirms our achievements in constructing a green factory with digital intelligence, but also recognizes the potential for our company’s future development. As a critical partner of CR Beer, China Entercom has provided strong support in intelligent cloud network security services, laying a solid digital foundation for us to realize our green vision of low-carbon operations. The collaboration between the two parties has achieved technical complementarity and integration, sparking deep synergies across business models, market strategies and different aspects.”

Mr. Brook Wong, Chief Executive Officer of CITIC Telecom CPC and President of China Entercom, said, “It is a great pleasure and honor to work with CR Beer on digital transformation, which is both a leading, high-quality, all-rounded alcoholic beverage company and a very important corporate client. I believe that this award is undoubtedly a high recognition for the collaborative projects between the two parties, and it is also a strong affirmation of our motto “Innovation Never Stops” and dedication in the ICT industry for more than two decades. Our next step will be riding on the wave of the digital economy, while pursuing innovation in digital intelligence, boosting high-quality development in ‘AI+ Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions, and accelerating the advancement of the ICT industry. We are committed to making technology the ultimate business enabler, promoting high-quality development with innovation and intelligence.”

From the Present to the Future: China Entercom Customizes a Future-Proof “All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security” Platform for CR Beer to Realize Digital Intelligence
Headquartered in Beijing, CR Beer is one of the significant members of China Resources Group in terms of the consumer sector, and also a pioneer with a history spanning over 30 years in the domestic alcoholic beverage industry. In view of aggregate sales, CR Beer has been top-ranked in the Chinese beer market since 2006, however, the market competition has become fiercer with the change in market demands and consumption needs, notably the trends of premiumization and diversification among the leading enterprises in the past few years. CR Beer realized digitization and intelligentization are the keys to capture the market, so it implemented the “3+3+3” corporate development strategy for premiumization in 2017, moved towards technology productization in 2020, and recently launched a dual empowerment model of “Beer and Baijiu”.

To achieve digital transformation, CR Beer needs to generate higher values from technologies and foster business growth by addressing the preexisting challenges. More importantly, it needs a reliable partner with technological expertise, tailor-made solutions, exceptional service capabilities and global resources to flexibly support its future businesses and advance the three critical objectives: (1) enhance network continuity and scalability, (2) improve network efficiency, and (3) reinforce the security protection of the entire digital infrastructure.

“Having considered carefully and conducted rigorous technical tests, CR Beer decided to join hands with China Entercom. With its full-cycle support from customization, deployment and installation, implementation to operation and maintenance, we adopted its innovative suite of ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions (MPLS + SD-WAN + Security + SASE + Private Cloud). With this solution as a solid and secure foundation for digital transformation, CR Beer has experienced a seamless and highly efficient transformation journey, which is in line with the ultimate goals of our partnership,” said Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.

IDC commented on “CR Beer’s One-Stop SD-WAN Hybrid Network” project, said: “This project has excelled and outcompeted others in network optimization, service delivery, technology innovation and low-carbon development. Additionally, the one-stop service provided by China Entercom not only streamlines the network management, but also ensures network stability and security with its round-the-clock monitoring function. With the integration of multiple innovative technologies, the customized ‘All-in-One Cloud, Network, Security’ solutions have addressed the digital transformation requirements of CR Beer. In particular, deploying the private cloud in the low-carbon data center is apparently a proactive approach to environmental protection and low-carbon operation, providing an excellent paradigm of both economic benefits and social responsibility commitments, setting a benchmark for the industry.”

Rooted in China, Connecting Globally: China Entercom as the long-term partner of CR Beer’s Globalization Strategy
CR Beer is committed to fulfilling its responsibility as a subsidiary of China Resources Group, actively promoting the “Belt and Road” Initiative and global development. To connect globally, the company first established a global strategic partnership with Heineken Group in 2019 under the “Going Global” policy, making China the second largest market for Heineken. By leveraging the global resources of China Entercom and its parent company CITIC Telecom CPC, the next step of CR Beer is to promote a comprehensive digital transformation with network improvement as the basis, realizing automated workflow and intelligent decision support. Meanwhile, the company is looking forward to boosting operational efficiency and responsiveness to drive rapid business growth and expand its market presence along the “Belt and Road”, in Southeast Asia, Europe and the global market.

Mr. Henry Ko, General Manager of Enterprise Sales, China Entercom, said, “The cooperation between China Entercom and CR Beer started at the initial stage of its digital transformation journey. As an industry leader, CR Beer has more heightened requirements of digital transformation — cost reduction, higher efficiency, and most importantly, holistically solving current pain points and challenges for a better future. And this is where our strengths lie. Having worked with a variety of industries for more than 20 years, China Entercom is well aware that forward-looking technologies and services offered by solution providers are the keys to maximizing clients’ IT investment efficiency.”

“There are some prerequisites for new technology applications to attain cost reduction and efficiency enhancement during digital transformation. The first is to select the right technologies and solutions, and the second is to carry out customized implementation and deployment for better business development. In other words, choosing the right partner matters. It is a great pleasure to be the right partner for CR Beer, and to be working together since the very beginning of its digital transformation, which it has eventually achieved higher efficiency with technologies,” continued Mr. Ko.

Beer with ICT Innovations: CR Beer Adds a Hint of New Technology Flavor
The in-depth cooperation between CR Beer and China Entercom demonstrates the convergence of innovative ICT technologies with the traditional alcoholic beverage industry, resembling a brewer blending liquors delicately. The next stage of cooperation is reportedly in the direction of going globally, AI+ and SOC-as-a-Service (SOCaaS).

“Under the leadership of Mr. Guo Hua, Chief Digital Officer of CR Beer, the information technology team is actively promoted ‘Five Transformations, Three Concentrations, One Core, and Four Platforms as the transformation framework to comprehensively promote the implementation of the digital strategy, committed to aligning with top international standards.  As we strongly support the digitalization of our business systems, we consistently enhance infrastructure development and information security. In parallel, we are proactively delving into the implementation of cutting-edge technologies like artificial intelligence, aiming to propel our digital transformation efforts.  Our goal is to establish a globally competitive IT brand and highlight the distinctive value of CR Beer and its IT division through recognition at the IDC awards.  We anticipate our continued collaboration with China Entercom, strategically mapping out our long-term partnership to achieve a more robust digital transformation and sustainable development,” concluded Mr. Chen Xue Qiang, Deputy Director of the Intelligence and Digitalization Department of CR Beer.
