DingTalk’s Liu Xiaotian: Building the Next-Generation Operating System Based on "Agent Collaboration"
Liu Xiaotian, Head of Solutions for DingTalk North China, explained the core logic behind "Agent Collaboration" during his keynote presentation. He believes that the key bottleneck to large-scale AI adoption is no longer model capability, but rather the lack of a unified enterprise-level operating environment. DingTalk is building a next-generation operating system centered around Agent OS, enabling agents to uniformly orchestrate digital tools and physical devices while facilitating interaction and coordination among agents themselves. In this system, humans transition from executors to "coaches," responsible for training and goal-setting, while delegating repetitive, process-driven tasks to intelligent agents.

Founded in 2012, Chia Tai Group is a modern agriculture and food industry group under Legend Holdings, ranking 36th among China's top 500 agricultural enterprises and serving as a benchmark for digital and intelligent transformation in Chinese agriculture.
Since 2020, Chia Tai has collaborated with DingTalk to build a digital ecosystem centered on knowledge management. By moving data, experience, and full-office scenarios onto DingTalk—and particularly through the use of an AI assistant named "Xiao Jia"—employee satisfaction has continuously improved, new employee training costs have been reduced by 50%, frontline farmers can access expert advice anytime, knowledge is updated instantly, and administrative tasks are resolved in one stop.
After DingTalk launched AI-powered spreadsheets in 2025, Chia Tai immediately became a deep user. Using AI spreadsheets, Chia Tai consolidated dozens of previous spreadsheets into a single dashboard, transforming unstructured information previously scattered across verbal communication, WeChat messages, and notes into standardized, computable structured data.
"Now we can input data into DingTalk AI spreadsheets via voice—it's an excellent feature!" said Li Meng, noting that this means farmers in the fields can now easily record their experiences and insights directly into the AI spreadsheet.

By optimizing delivery routes with AI algorithms, fulfillment rates increased to 99%. Using AI-powered transcription and automatic analysis of massive meeting records, common issues were identified and addressed, achieving over 90% issue closure rate, significantly improving supply chain responsiveness and management transparency.

As a wholly-owned subsidiary of China Media Group, CCTV Rui’an is a leading enterprise in power operations and comprehensive technical services within the broadcasting industry. "The key to solving collaboration issues at work is shifting from 'passing notes' to 'viewing one unified dashboard.' We must skillfully adopt the most advanced tools of our time," said Yang Guo. By integrating DingTalk’s OA approval system with AI-powered spreadsheets, CCTV Rui’an built an outbound support management platform, achieving a closed loop where processes drive data and data in turn improves processes.
"AI spreadsheets are truly powerful—cutting-edge yet requiring no coding," said Yang Guo. "For example, the entire outbound support management platform was built by just me and another engineer."
The entire summit was filled with enthusiasm and conveyed a clear message: the transformation of work in the AI era has entered a stage of deepened practice. "Agent collaboration" is no longer a distant concept but is taking root across countless industries, becoming a key engine for enhancing organizational resilience, unlocking innovation, and building future competitiveness. Only by actively embracing this transformation can enterprises and individuals stand at the forefront of the AI revolution.

Using DingTalk: Before & After
Before
- × Team Chaos: Team members are all busy with their own tasks, standards are inconsistent, and the more communication there is, the more chaotic things become, leading to decreased motivation.
- × Info Silos: Important information is scattered across WhatsApp/group chats, emails, Excel spreadsheets, and numerous apps, often resulting in lost, missed, or misdirected messages.
- × Manual Workflow: Tasks are still handled manually: approvals, scheduling, repair requests, store visits, and reports are all slow, hindering frontline responsiveness.
- × Admin Burden: Clocking in, leave requests, overtime, and payroll are handled in different systems or calculated using spreadsheets, leading to time-consuming statistics and errors.
After
- ✓ Unified Platform: By using a unified platform to bring people and tasks together, communication flows smoothly, collaboration improves, and turnover rates are more easily reduced.
- ✓ Official Channel: Information has an "official channel": whoever is entitled to see it can see it, it can be tracked and reviewed, and there's no fear of messages being skipped.
- ✓ Digital Agility: Processes run online: approvals are faster, tasks are clearer, and store/on-site feedback is more timely, directly improving overall efficiency.
- ✓ Automated HR: Clocking in, leave requests, and overtime are automatically summarized, and attendance reports can be exported with one click for easy payroll calculation.
