In the Information Age, Data Becomes a New Factor of Productivity In economics, factors of production, also known as production inputs, are essential resources for the production of goods and services. In his epochal work “Principles of Economics”, famous British economist Marshall put forward the theory of four factors of production — land, labor, capital and entrepreneurial talent. National income (NI) is the reward of four factors, and that is, national income (NI) = labor wage (w) + land rent (r) + capital interest (i) + operating profit (π). This “four-in-one formula” sums up the core of western economic production theory and distribution theory, which has been widely accepted for more than a century. However, factors of production are a historical category that evolves with the...

In recent years, with the change of global energy demand and consumption structure, energy industry has seen reforms, remarkable but still with problems. Under this background, blockchain technology, naturally featured by decentralization, distributed storage, highly transparent information and non-tamperable data, has gradually become a new reform direction. The automobile industry, as an important field in energy consumption, is also changing to new energy. As an end product, it is an inevitable trend for automobiles to move from mechanization and electrification to intelligence. The essence of new energy trend is to realize electrified vehicles, namely electric vehicles, and new energy vehicle industry helps to alleviate energy security problems.
