Recently, the Yiwu Global Digital Trade Center officially opened, with several key provincial leaders, including Wang Hao, Secretary of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee, and Governor Liu Jie, attending the opening ceremony. Among the highlights, the offline experience store Chinagoods, which specializes in promoting 3D printing application services, garnered significant attention from the leaders.
As a long-term "industry observer" focused on the 3D printing sector, Nanjixiong has been closely monitoring the development of Chinagoods. Prior to the project's launch, Nanjixiong assisted in connecting a group of domestic 3D printing creators and product suppliers, aiming to integrate their creative products and capabilities through Chinagoods. This initiative seeks to seamlessly link the "design end," "manufacturing end," and "trade end."
Inside the Service Point: Three "Magic Tools" Addressing Industry Pain Points
According to staff at the Chinagoods service point, this is no ordinary experience store—it is a "makerspace" specifically designed to tackle industry challenges.
AI Design Tools Lower the Barrier: For business owners with ideas but lacking design capabilities, the service point offers user-friendly AI design tools that require no professional skills, enabling quick generation of Design plan.
3D Printing Accelerates Sample Production: Having a design is not enough. 3D printing technology can turn designs into physical samples at minimal cost and high speed, eliminating the need to wait for factory scheduling.
Connecting Makers to Fill Creativity Gaps: For business owners with high design demands, the service point leverages its resource network to connect them with excellent makers nationwide, effectively providing them with an "external creative brain."
Listening to Real Feedback: Doubled Efficiency, Halved Costs
According to feedback from business owners, finding a designer used to take 6-7 days, and connecting with suitable makers could even take up to six months. Now, through the service point, they not only get immediate responses but can also engage with multiple makers simultaneously, reducing costs by more than half.
Makers also shared positive news: previously, even the best ideas had no platform for monetization. Now, on this platform, they can address demands from multiple industries at once. As word spreads, business owners proactively reach out daily, eliminating the worry of "good wine needs no bush."
Beyond 3D Printing: Building a "Zero-Threshold" Shared Ecosystem
Even more impressively, the service point offers more than just 3D printing-related services. Within the Yiwu Global Digital Trade Center, shared spaces for live streaming, e-commerce applications, and integrated third-party services are also set up. The entire ecosystem is built around "zero threshold, low cost, and rapid iteration," with the goal of genuinely helping market operators "make money."
Watching ideas quickly transform into products here, allowing both business owners and makers to achieve their goals, Nanjixiong is particularly impressed. This is not only a successful implementation of 3D printing technology but also a deep integration of technological innovation with the small commodity industry chain. In the future, surely more "good ideas" will turn into "good business" here! Nanjixiong will continue to follow the operational developments of the service point closely.
