Chaoxing Zhizhen Group (超星指针集团)

Customer Service Automation · Enterprise Knowledge Search

Chaoxing Zhizhen Group needed a way to connect isolated campus systems and fragmented knowledge resources, deliver more personalized services to teachers and students, and turn large-model technology into production-ready applications for teaching, campus management, and research workflows.

PPT assistant usage reached 80%
agent development efficiency improved 85%
average agent development cycle reduced to 1 hour
labor cost reduced 70%

Reported impact

Business outcome

The AI capability center raised large-model output accuracy to nearly 90%, expanded campuses to more than 40 AI tools, drove high adoption of staff and student productivity tools, and cut agent-development effort and delivery time so schools can launch new smart-campus experiences faster and at lower operating cost.

  • Cost Reduction
  • Customer Experience
  • Productivity Improvement
  • Speed to Market

Solution

Chaoxing Zhizhen Group worked with Alibaba Cloud to build a university AI capability center on Alibaba Cloud Bailian that connects data governance, knowledge management, agent delivery, and applications. The architecture is organized as end user, business scenario, and capability middle platform: campus systems, teaching resources, and management content are ingested into a centralized layer, where Bailian's multi-source data-governance tooling creates a dual-track knowledge system with institution-specific repositories plus a public shared library. On top of that foundation, the group packages AI functions into an AI agent platform, AI knowledge-base platform, and AI tool platform so universities can assemble multimodal Q&A assistants, recommendations, and business workflows without writing low-level model code. Qwen models and Bailian APIs provide the inference layer, while natural-language instructions and visual configuration shorten agent creation and rollout.

Data flow

Campus information systems, teaching resources, and management content feed the AI capability middle platform, where Bailian's data-governance functions organize them into dedicated and public knowledge bases. Qwen-powered agents and tools then retrieve from those stores and return multimodal Q&A, recommendations, and workflow outputs through campus-facing applications.

Solution architecture

8 components · 4 layers
  1. Compute
    • Alibaba Cloud Bailian Supplies the large-model services, data-governance tooling, and APIs that power the university AI capability center.
    • Qwen large models Provide the language understanding and generation layer behind campus agents and AI tools.
  2. Storage
    • Dedicated knowledge base Stores institution-specific data and knowledge for each university's own assistants and workflows.
    • Public shared knowledge base Holds common resources that can be reused across campuses as part of the dual-track knowledge system.
  3. Serving
    • AI agent platform Lets universities build and deploy campus-specific agents through natural-language instructions and visual configuration.
    • AI knowledge-base platform Serves retrieval-backed question answering and knowledge services to campus users.
    • AI tool platform Packages reusable AI tools that departments can call without building their own model stack.
  4. Orchestration
    • AI capability middle platform Centralizes scheduling and management of AI capabilities across teaching, management, and research scenarios.

Architecture clues

  • AI functions are modularized into separate agent, knowledge-base, and tool platforms on top of Bailian APIs.
  • Knowledge is split into institution-specific and shared repositories rather than a single undifferentiated store.
  • Natural-language instructions plus visual configuration are used to generate campus agents.
  • The architecture is explicitly organized as end user, business scenario, and capability middle platform layers.
