"In the past, Xiaomi has been learning, growing and accumulating. Today, Xiaomi has ushered in a leap moment." On October 26th, Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, announced that Xiaomi Group’s strategy has been officially upgraded to "the whole ecology of people, cars and homes", which integrates personal equipment, smart home and smart travel into an organic whole with people as the center. The key to carrying Xiaomi’s new strategy is Xiaomi’s OS.

With the development of Internet of Things, big data and artificial intelligence technology, the Internet of Everything has become a trend. In the future, mobile phones, smart homes, smart cars, and even robots will break the boundaries and cooperate across devices, but the scene will become more complicated. Operating system plays a particularly critical role in the cross-terminal connection of devices, and its innovation is as important as chips, semiconductors, and advanced processes.

Crucially, the appearance of Xiaomi’s surging OS is not only a turning point for Xiaomi to take the lead in realizing the layout of "people, cars and homes are all ecological", but also a microcosm of China science and technology companies’ continuous breakthrough, continuous innovation, improvement of international competitiveness and efforts to win the crown jewel of science and technology. From Huawei’s Harmony OS to Xiaomi’s surging OS, from BYD’s blade battery and Yunqi chassis technology to Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited Shenxing’s rechargeable battery "getting on the bus", China’s science and technology enterprises have moved from following to leading, and gradually grown into global enterprises with "advanced strength".

Xiaomi 澎 OS is online.China technology moves from following to leading.

78 years ago, the appearance of Von Neumann architecture determined that binary logic, program storage and execution, and computer were composed of five parts, so that hardware design and program design could be executed separately. On this basis, the operating system manages the software and hardware resources.

In the field of mobile devices, due to the change of operating system, different ecosystems have been derived and different moderns have been shaped. In the era when Symbin system dominated the rivers and lakes, Motorola, Nokia, Ericsson and other enterprises blossomed and occupied a large market share. However, there are always innovators who are constantly pushing the times forward. In 2007, Google named an operating system based on Linux kernel Android. In the same year, Apple announced an operating system at Macworld conference and renamed it ios in 2010.

When the mobile terminal represented by the mobile phone entered the intelligent age, the former king gradually faded out of the stage. In 2013, Nokia announced that it would no longer release Symbian mobile phones. Since then, the emerging Android and ios have been competing for many years, and the market has also been divided into Apple’s whole family barrel and Android camp.

Based on the operating system, technology companies represented by Apple quickly established an ecological moat to seize the market on a global scale. However, in the past years, the mobile terminal field only lacked the presence of competitive China enterprises. In fact, in the past, China enterprises were in a state of following for a long time, and all kinds of knockoffs that ran rampant in the market once became synonymous with China’s science and technology industry.

Although China science and technology enterprises are accelerating to catch up, it will not happen overnight from catching up to surpassing. Especially in the bottom innovation level such as operating system, from the point of view of importance, it is the key for China science and technology enterprises to get rid of the "bottleneck" of supply chain, and it is also an important link to establish their own ecology and lead scientific and technological innovation. Its research and development is as difficult and important as chips and advanced processes that are well known by all walks of life. From the perspective of investment scale, the huge R&D expenses, long R&D cycle and unpredictable complex risks are the real challenges faced by China science and technology enterprises.

When Lei Jun introduced Xiaomi 澎湃 OS, he said: "The positioning of Xiaomi 澎湃 OS is people-centered, and it is to create an ecological operating system for people, cars and homes. This goal is extremely ambitious. After 13 years of exploration, Xiaomi has been researched and developed for 7 years. At the beginning, Xiaomi soldiers were divided into four ways, involving mobile phone operating system, embedded operating system, self-developed operating system and car system. Two years ago, Xiaomi made up his mind to integrate and unify the software architecture and the bottom of the system. This time, the reconstruction of the bottom of the system, Xiaomi Group participated in more than 5,000 engineers. "

At present, in the field of operating systems, Huawei HarmonyOS, which took seven years and more than 4,000 R&D personnel to develop, followed by Xiaomi’s surging OS. With the support of Huawei and Xiaomi, China’s science and technology industry has entered a new stage of development. Based on the huge user ecology, China science and technology enterprises have achieved a key turning point from following to leading in the international market.

"The operating system is the cornerstone of the development of the ICT industry. If the software is a variety of passengers and the hardware is an airplane, then it is the operating system that uses the underlying resources to play a scheduling role in the middle. It is the terminal building connecting hardware and software. " Wu Chao, director of CITIC Construction Investment Research Institute and chief analyst of TMT industry, said metaphorically.

In Wu Chao’s view, the most important thing about Xiaomi 澎湃 OS is that it rewrites the entire underlying system architecture. In addition to continuing the original Linux and Vela kernels, AI-related modules are added to ensure the stability and reliability of the operating system.

People-centeredTake the lead in realizing the layout of "people, cars and homes are all ecological"

In 2016, Alpha Go, a robot developed by Google, caused a sensation all over the world by beating the world champion of Go 4:1 in a Go match. Recently, driven by technologies such as 5G and big data, the artificial intelligence industry has entered a period of rapid development. In particular, the emergence of a large model represented by Chat GPT has made people realize that AI has moved from basics to intelligence.

With the rise of the Internet of Things and smart cars, more and more devices will realize cross-terminal circulation and collaboration, and the generation of a large amount of data combined with large models is expected to make AI smarter. However, it is not easy to achieve smooth flow and combination between different types of equipment. It involves chips, sensors, communication technology, artificial intelligence, cloud computing, application ecological construction and other latitudes. In order to achieve this goal, different scientific and technological enterprises have increased their investment and stepped out of their own development paths.

Previously, Huawei put forward the "1+8+n" strategy, and based on HarmonyOS’s ecology, it realized cross-device circulation and formed a super terminal. Xiaomi is constantly laying out around the IoT field. In 2014, Xiaomi began to enter the IoT field; In 2017, Xiaomi released the self-developed Xiaomi Vela OS to gradually unify the loT equipment system; In 2023, Xiaomi 澎湃 OS realized the all-device cross-end convergence architecture, and the whole scene of mobile phone, car and AIoT will be unified in architecture and communication.

Although the strategic names are different, the core behind Huawei’s and Xiaomi’s strategies is to make AI serve people and take people as the center, so that AI can understand people’s thoughts more and more, and provide people with more personalized and accurate services in different scenarios.

At present, facing the new round of opportunities brought by the big model, China science and technology enterprises have increased their prices. Among them, Huawei and Baidu accelerate the layout from the chip layer, architecture layer and application layer, while Xiaomi deeply integrates the self-developed AI model with Xiaomi 澎湃 OS, realizing the whole ecology of people, cars and homes, and establishing an interconnection experience of self-perception and self-decision.

In fact, Xiaomi’s opening up of the ecology of people and cars is not unrelated to the development of the automobile industry. New energy vehicles are an important way for China to overtake in the automobile industry. In recent years, China enterprises including BYD and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited have continuously increased their investment in technology research and development, which has promoted China’s new energy industry chain, new energy vehicle technology and battery technology to occupy a leading position in the international market.

Intelligentization is the competition focus of new energy automobile industry in the future. In the past period of time, China enterprises including Huawei, Geely and Weilai have been exploring the interconnection technology between cars and mobile phones, and even more devices. Xiaomi is using Xiaomi 澎湃 OS to achieve this idea and let the smart experience land in the scene of the car.

In the future, when users are sitting in the car, if they encounter beautiful scenery, they can call the car camera to take pictures and share the photos with friends through their mobile phones. At the same time, with the blessing of the big model, the device will independently understand the user’s preferences and living habits, such as leaving for work at eight o’clock every morning, and the system will automatically generate corresponding commuting suggestions.

"In recent years, the development of mobile Internet has been very rapid. On the one hand, the system driven by China enterprises meets the market demand, on the other hand, it also accelerates the innovation speed of the entire technology industry in the process of accelerating technology iteration." Guan Qingyou, vice president of China Private Economy Research Association, said that Xiaomi has built an ecosystem of people and cars, and this system is our advantage.

Continue to overweight innovationChina science and technology enterprises are going international.

The appearance of Xiaomi’s surging OS is not accidental, and this scene can only appear in the China market.

In the past ten years, China has gradually developed into the largest producer and marketer of consumer electronics, and domestic mobile phone brands account for over 60% of the global market. At the same time, China is also the largest smart home market in the world; In the automotive field, China’s new energy vehicle production and sales ranked first in the world for 8 consecutive years; In the field of AI, China’s artificial intelligence technology is also showing the trend of competing with foreign markets.

Xiaomi has complied with the development cycle of science and technology in the future, and developed an operating system which was initiated by China science and technology enterprises and linked with the intelligence of all things.

In fact, Xiaomi’s surging OS is only the tip of China technology company’s continuous innovation and improvement of international competitiveness. To become an "advanced and powerful" global technology enterprise is not aimed at upgrading a single technology, but more at a comprehensive breakthrough. Xiaomi 14 series, which was unveiled with Xiaomi 澎湃 OS, is equipped with a variety of "black technologies" such as congruent deep micro-curved screen, Xiaomi Longjing glass, and endless iris, which makes Xiaomi grow from benchmarking apple to surpassing apple and leads the industry to realize the key leap of mobile optics.

At present, the pace of innovation of science and technology enterprises in China is far from stopping. Lei Jun once said that Xiaomi’s goal after entering the new decade is to invest in the underlying core technologies on a large scale. Xiaomi will choose areas with long-term value for human civilization, and achieve deep integration of software and hardware and comprehensive empowerment of AI. In the next five years, Xiaomi will invest at least 100 billion RMB as research and development funds.

It can’t be ignored that the innovation of China science and technology enterprises not only drives the development of the enterprises themselves, but also the upgrading of the whole industrial chain. For example, Xiaomi’s intelligent manufacturing system is constantly being exported to the whole manufacturing industry. Some supply chain cooperative enterprises, including Lansi Technology and Longqi Technology, have enabled a complete set of production line equipment and smart factory systems exported by Xiaomi. Driven by Huawei, Xiaomi, BYD and other enterprises, Huawei’s industrial chain, Xiaomi’s industrial chain and automobile industrial chain have gradually grown into international models.

The overall upgrading of the industrial chain has accelerated the process of China’s scientific and technological enterprises going abroad, and more and more China’s scientific and technological enterprises have begun to go abroad and compete with overseas head enterprises in the international market. Take Xiaomi as an example, its business has entered more than 100 countries and regions. As of the second quarter of 2023, Xiaomi smartphones ranked in the top three in 51 markets around the world and ranked in the top five in 61 markets; In June 2023, the monthly users of MIUI operating system reached 606 million, of which more than 455 million were overseas users.

"The speed of scientific and technological progress in China in recent years can be described by leaps and bounds. Not only has significant progress been made in core technologies such as chips, but science and technology have also driven the accelerated upgrading of high-end manufacturing. This is due to the huge market in China and the efforts of China enterprises, as well as international competition. " Guan Qingyou believes that strengthening self-research and realizing autonomous and controllable technology by head enterprises is not only a way for China to cope with the "bottleneck" of technology, but also an inevitable option after technology development enters no man’s land. China has entered an explosive period of scientific and technological progress. In the future, more and more technologies will be in the leading position in the world, which will promote the upgrading and transformation of the industrial chain and enhance global competitiveness.

Foxconn’s investment layout in Henan goes further.

Hon Hai recently announced that Foxconn will invest in the construction of a new business headquarters building in Zhengzhou to carry the functions of the new business headquarters. The first phase of the project is located in Zhengdong New District, with a total investment of about RMB 1 billion.

Where is Foxconn’s new business headquarters building built? What is the location advantage? What function will it assume in the future? At noon on July 25th, shanghai securities news reporter explored the latest situation of Foxconn’s new business headquarters building.

Exploring Foxconn’s new business headquarters building

The reporter’s investigation found that at the intersection of Sanquan Road and Longhu Inner Ring North Road in Zhengdong New District of Zhengzhou City, this piece of land with a large area has all been surrounded by blue enclosures. According to informed sources, this is the location of Foxconn’s new business headquarters building. The first phase of the project covers an area of about 43 mu.

Across the road from it is the Innovation Incubation Base of Zhongyuan Science and Technology City, which is also the transitional office of Foxconn’s new business headquarters.

Geographically, Foxconn’s new business headquarters building is located in the "golden area" of Zhengzhou-the "dragon head" position of Beilonghu area, with obvious geographical advantages.

In terms of transportation, the area is close to Zhongzhou Avenue, Longhu Zhonghuan Road and other important urban trunk roads, and transportation networks such as high-speed, high-speed rail, subway and public transportation have been formed.

There are also supporting facilities in the vicinity, such as Tsinghua High School Affiliated to Tsinghua University, Foreign Children’s School, Zhengda First Affiliated Hospital, Financial Island Lake Business, Zhengzhou Longhu Park and Fengshan Forest Park.

More importantly, high-tech enterprises gather near the location of Foxconn’s new business headquarters building, and companies such as Superconfusion and East Microelectronics are adjacent to it. The nearby Innovation Incubation Base of Zhongyuan Science and Technology City has settled in a number of characteristic digital innovation laboratories and science and technology innovation platforms such as artificial intelligence public laboratories.

According to Hon Hai’s announcement, the new business headquarters building will mainly build seven centers, including headquarters management center, R&D center and engineering center, strategic industrial development center, strategic industrial financial platform, industrial research institute and key talent center, marketing center and supply chain management center, and will implement the "3+3" strategy for Foxconn (three emerging industries of "electric vehicle, digital health and robot" and three new technologies of "artificial intelligence, semiconductor and new generation mobile communication").

"In February 2023, Chairman Liu Yangwei led the Foxconn senior management team to visit, and the four-day trip was all arranged in Zhengzhou. After that, in just over 60 days, Chairman Liu Yangwei came to Zhengzhou twice, and the words of’ thank you, be grateful, and join hands again’ expressed by Henan were widely circulated. " A person close to Foxconn Technology Group told reporters that the close contact between Foxconn executives and Henan in the first half of 2023 finally yielded fruitful results on April 25 of that year-the new business headquarters of Foxconn Technology Group was established in Beilonghu, Zhengzhou.

Foxconn said that it will continue to deepen Henan, accelerate the implementation of the "3+3" transformation and development strategy, and build Foxconn’s new business headquarters into a core base and an important benchmark for Foxconn’s global innovation and industrial layout.

Judging from the expected functions, Foxconn’s new business headquarters will accelerate Foxconn’s landing in emerging industries such as electric vehicles, energy storage batteries, digital health and robots. This also means that in the future, a large number of technical talents and innovative resources will be gathered here to form a scientific and technological innovation and emerging industrial ecosystem.

Foxconn’s "Building a Car" Plan Accelerated Landing

In addition to the construction of Foxconn’s new business headquarters building, what attracts the attention of the outside world is Foxconn’s "building a car" plan in Zhengzhou.

Hon Hai revealed in the announcement that Foxconn will focus on the electric vehicle trial production center and solid-state batteries in Zhengzhou Airport Economic Comprehensive Experimental Zone (hereinafter referred to as "Zhengzhou Airport Area").

According to Henan Daily, on July 22nd, the People’s Government of Henan Province and Foxconn Technology Group signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Zhengzhou. Witnessed by Lou Yangsheng, secretary of Henan Provincial Party Committee, Wang Kai, Governor of Henan Province and Liu Yangwei, chairman of Foxconn Technology Group, signed the contract on behalf of both parties. Wang Kai also attended the launching ceremony of Foxconn’s new business series investment projects and the groundbreaking ceremony of the new energy vehicle trial-production center held in Zhengzhou Airport on the 23rd.

The reporter of Shanghai Stock Exchange learned that Foxconn’s goal this time is to build the core production base of Foxconn electric vehicles in Zhengzhou Airport Area. The related project (proposed location) is located in the southeast area of Zhengzhou Airport Area, only 2-3 kilometers away from BYD’s largest new energy automobile factory in China-Zhengzhou BYD production base.

"The plot to be located has been installed with enclosures last year, and most of them have completed the preliminary work such as cultural survey. These plots are marked with’ H Group’ land in all functional departments of the port area. " A person close to Zhengzhou Airport told reporters that Foxconn laid out and built the world’s largest Apple mobile phone production base in Zhengzhou Airport more than ten years ago. Today, the production area of Foxconn’s new business unit has once again settled in Zhengzhou Airport Area.

Song Xiangqing, vice president of the Institute of Government Management of Beijing Normal University and director of the Industrial Economic Research Center, told reporters that whether it is new energy vehicles, solid-state batteries, robots and other projects, or AI, semiconductors and other technologies, Foxconn is betting on the future track. It must be a well-thought-out decision to focus part of our business on Zhengzhou. "As a core city in the Central Plains, Zhengzhou has shown strong development momentum in transportation, science and technology, and new energy industries in recent years. In addition, the strong support of the Henan provincial government for high-tech enterprises has also provided a good external environment for the further development of Foxconn. "

In fact, since entering Henan in 2010, Foxconn and Henan have continuously deepened cooperation. The data shows that since the establishment of the factory, the cumulative import and export volume of Zhengzhou Foxconn accounts for about 60% of the total import and export volume of Henan Province and 80% of Zhengzhou City. In addition, during the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, Zhengzhou Foxconn has driven more than 200 related industrial chain enterprises to settle in Zhengzhou Airport, with an investment of 300 billion yuan.

"Henan initially gave Foxconn preferential treatment in terms of land and taxes, and later gave the province the power to help Foxconn recruit and provide human resources and other aspects of protection. Foxconn not only contributed bright import and export data to Henan, but more importantly, it solved the employment problem of hundreds of thousands of people in Henan. It can be said that the 14-year cooperation and running-in between Henan and Foxconn laid the foundation for win-win cooperation between the two sides. This is a historical choice and a two-way trip. " The above-mentioned insiders also said that the hand in hand with Foxconn this time is an excellent opportunity for Henan to transform, upgrade and accelerate development. With the gradual implementation of various projects, it is expected to bring a series of chain reactions to Henan, from scientific and technological innovation to industrial upgrading, and then to the transformation of economic growth mode, or it will all be accelerated.

What industrial signals does Foxconn release from overweight investment?

The reporter combed the public information and found that since 2018, Foxconn has also made a lot of investments in Zhuhai, Guangdong, Jinan, Shandong, Nanjing, Jiangsu and other places. These investments cover semiconductor industry chains from fabs and semiconductor equipment to packaging and testing.

Including the cooperation with Zhuhai municipal government to start the construction of a 12-inch wafer factory with a total investment of 9 billion US dollars; Established an investment fund of RMB 3.75 billion in cooperation with Jinan Municipal Government to promote the development of semiconductor industry in Shandong Province; Foxconn’s Jingding Precision Nanjing Semiconductor Industry Base and Semiconductor Equipment Manufacturing Project settled in Nanjing …

"Foxconn’s series of overweight investment actions reflect its emphasis on future technological development. Through these investments, Foxconn aims to strengthen its position in the global industrial chain while promoting local economic growth and technological progress. " Some people in the electronic information industry chain said that from an industrial perspective, it is inevitable for Foxconn to shift its investment focus from mobile phones to new energy vehicles. "With more friends and lower profits, this move is also to seek a’ second curve’. At the same time, under the strategy of multi-point layout and diversification of supply chain risks, Foxconn is likely to continue to invest more in new business in China on the one hand, and transfer some OEM business to emerging markets on the other hand. "

Some insiders also said that driven by high-quality development, corporate investment represented by Foxconn is also undergoing simultaneous transformation and upgrading. In addition, the advantages of China’s manufacturing industry, the scale of consumer market, deeply integrated supply chain, digital economy and other opportunities in the field of sustainable development are all important driving forces to stimulate its expansion.

The annual "Weibo Night" fell on Weibo on the night of January 4, and the biggest suspense of the night’s awards ceremony, that is, the list of winners of Weibo King and Weibo Queen, was also announced at the last moment. Popular stars Zhu Yilong and Yang Zi won the Weibo King and Weibo Queen of the "Weibo Night" in 2023, respectively.

First of all, Zhu Yilong, who has specialized in the film industry in recent years, has indeed achieved outstanding results. The "Life Events", "Vanishing Her", and "Error by the River" starring him are all well-received and popular productions, and they have also maintained a rather high artistic standard. From the two works, the audience has also seen Zhu Yilong’s talent and diligence at the film level, and the future is even more promising.

In the "Weibo Night" that night, in addition to receiving the highest honor of Weibo King, Zhu Yilong also won the Weibo Influential Film of the Year for his movie "Vanishing Her", and the "Error by the River" based on Yu Hua’s novel starring him won the Weibo Word-of-mouth Film of the Year. Therefore, this year’s "Weibo Night", Zhu Yilong also plays a role "as the high-profile Weibo Quality Filmmaker of the Year.

Furthermore, Yang Zi is the winner of this year’s "Weibo Night" Weibo Queen, and this is the third time she has won the title of Weibo Queen. Previously, in 2019 and 2020, Yang Zi and Xiao Zhan won the titles of Weibo King and Weibo Queen for two consecutive years.

Looking back at the entire "Weibo Night", Yang Zi’s exposure was quite high. First of all, the main creator of the New Year blockbuster "Hot Hot" just announced on the same day, including Zhang Xiaofei, Lei Jiayin and other stars appeared on the red carpet together. Then, Yang Zi and Liu Shishi jointly won the appeal actor of the year. In the end, she won the honor of Weibo Queen in one fell swoop, and the topic of #Yang Zisan won Weibo Queen #instantly hit the hot search, which was indeed the biggest winner of "Weibo Night".

Yang Zi has "Purple" in her name, and is affectionately called "Little Monkey Purple" by fans, so she often appears in purple dresses, which is particularly iconic. This year is no exception. A variety of purple dresses bring out her graceful figure and elegant temperament. When giving her speech, the intellectual Yang Zi also choked up for a while. She said that 2023 is a year for her to grow up, be recognized and confident, and expressed her gratitude to the audience and fans for their support. She hopes to continue to shoot more excellent works to give back to fans in the coming year.

Although all kinds of honors are added, in Zhan Taifeng’s opinion, this "Little Monkey Purple" is not proud, but humbly and soberly sees his present and future. Of course, the whole "Weibo Night" is also full of stars. It is a kind of luck to be selected as Weibo Queen, and it is also an encouragement and encouragement for young artists. I hope they can bring more good works to everyone in the future, and lead by example to become a good example for young people. Come on.

Huawei P7 sales announced: shocked

When Huawei P6 was released, Yu Chengdong said that its sales were expected to break through the 10 million mark, but the final facts proved that its shipments were only more than 4 million units, which was far behind expectations.

This year, Huawei released an upgraded version of the P6, the P7, which has made great improvements in hardware and software compared to the P6. In particular, the replacement of the K3V2 processor with the Kirin 910 has been well received by many users.

So, the question is, how many P7 sales are there?

According to the data just released by Huawei employee @Goofy George on Weibo, the sales of P7 have reached 4.53 million units as of two weeks ago, and have reached or even exceeded the data of P6, which is quite good.

By the way, the price of the P7 was 2888 yuan when it went on sale, but the current Huawei mall has dropped to 2588 yuan.

Do you think it can sell millions of units?
