As the helmsman of Lenovo Group , Yang Yuanqing is not at ease with the status quo.
At the 2022Lenovo Innovation Technology Conference (Lenovo TechWorld), Yang Yuanqing shared four major outlooks for future science in one breath, which also shows that Lenovo will make drastic moves in these four directions.
Yang Yuanqing's "cake" is very big, but many of the processes are gradually being implemented.
First, Yang Yuanqing believes that future work will no longer be limited to the scope of physical space, but will evolve into a world where virtual and real blend.
He gave an example: Once upon a time, "going to work" means going to a specific place to communicate and collaborate with others face to face. Now, with the help of different devices and different technologies, the work scenarios can be combined and integrated remotely with on-site, virtual and reality, but the experience is not discounted compared to face-to-face. The boundaries and limitations of traditional workspaces are disappearing, and ultimately, the so-called workplace will no longer be one or more specific physical spaces, but a work experience that "will be as you wish".
In this regard, Yang Yuanqing announced the important partner " Baidu ", and will launch a new meta-universe online display space - "Thinking the World". Key customer interaction platforms such as Lenovo official website and Lenovo Future Center will be the first to "metauniverse" and will be included in Baidu Xirang .
Second, what supports the future world where virtual and real are omnipresent, is the continuous evolution from computing devices to computing power.
Yang Yuanqing put forward a new proposition of "Puhui computing power". He pointed out that with the explosive growth of data, we have entered a faster era of digitalization and intelligence. "Single-soldier combat" equipment and localized data centers are far from meeting the computing needs anytime and anywhere. The new computing power infrastructure of "end-edge-cloud-network" came into being. The end in the user's hands covers a wide range of clouds, and is closer to the edges where data is generated, plus a high-speed network that transmits data, providing users with ubiquitous "Puhui" computing power. At the same time, the computing power service model is also keeping pace with the times and is more flexible.
Lenovo Group will focus on the field of automotive computing. Applying computing to the automotive industry and helping the new four modernizations of automobiles, namely intelligence, electrification, networking and sharing, is Lenovo Group's clear goal.
Third, all industries have transformed from traditional informatization to digital and intelligent.
Yang Yuanqing proposed that today's IT industry has entered a new stage - from the traditional informatization composed of terminals, servers, data centers, ERP, CRM and other applications in the past, to the digitalization and intelligence stage supported by the new IT technology architecture of "end-edge-cloud-network-intelligence".
At last year's Innovation and Technology Conference, Lenovo launched the "Everything is Service" brand TruScale, whose Chinese brand name is now officially launched - "Lenovo Computing Service". The full-stack products, services and solutions provided by Lenovo, as well as the subscription-based, one-stop, all-inclusive "Lenovo Computing Service" model are empowering the intelligent transformation of all walks of life.
Fourth, science and technology not only includes improving productivity and creating economic value, but also protecting the environment, promoting sustainable development of , and creating social value.
Yang Yuanqing said that today when climate change and energy shortage bring more challenges to mankind, science and technology must shoulder this mission - it is not only important, but also urgent.
Lenovo Group announced that they have set a goal of achieving net zero emissions by 2050, and are also approving it with the "Science Carbon Target Initiative" to take a solid step in protecting the environment. During the
TechWorld2022 Innovation and Technology Conference, Lenovo Group comprehensively introduced the company's latest progress and achievements in new space, new computing power, industry intelligence and low-carbon environmental protection, which is exactly matched with Yang Yuanqing's four major outlooks.
Once the prospect is implemented, the "cake" will be digested. The future depicted by Yang Yuanqing is very likely to unfold a real picture scroll.
