Huang Wang: Beyond the impact of architecture on human intuition

I named this place two years ago It is the global innovation center of Huami Technology. We are here mainly to develop smart watch operating systems, chips and sensors, artificial intelligence technology, new materials and processes, and innovative health and medical products. This building complex is a large-scale hardware work presented by many teams working together.

Architecture has a huge impact on people. Urban people spend 80% of their time in various buildings every day. The lighting, color, shape, and spatial distribution of interior design affect people’s actions, vision and even emotions all the time. It has a subtle influence, which ultimately affects people's spirit and health, and also affects people's creativity.

Most areas of our building are designed with all-glass internal walls. Even a warehouse, a secret laboratory, or the financial department can see all the personnel activities inside from the outside. This is to make all people feel as transparent and open as possible in the physical space of the company's operations, and to affect everyone for a long time, thereby extending to the information sharing, sharing and transparency in the virtual cyberspace.

This time we also completely abandon the independent office of senior management, because we are worried that the form will lead to self-isolation and closure. The accumulation of time, the sense of authority and psychological hints given by external forms and material conditions are not conducive to the health and self of the organization. Iteration. To break self-enclosed and false authority, start from physical space.

We are affected by physical space, and because of the large space, we will unconsciously add a lot of people to this complex. It seems that the more people, the stronger the company. This is another aspect of the management team that may be imperceptibly affected by these buildings.

A leading company serving the world may need many people; but a company with a large number of people may not necessarily be strong. On the contrary, designing more tools, software, hardware, and AI, and reducing crowds of tactics, so as to obtain higher per capita output and higher efficiency, is the industrial value we should pursue.

This is the first time Huami Technology has settled in such a large building complex. In the past two years, I have deeply felt the team's desire and love for having its own building complex. Humans’ sense of ownership and desire for land and houses are really innate.

Our emotions and feelings are often influenced by the things and intuitions in front of us, instead of rational thinking all the time. People always hope to grasp the tangible and visible value of the physical objects, and they are often not confident in virtual intellectual property rights and R&D designs.

Companies with buildings seem to be powerful, and their products and services are often vulnerable. Companies without buildings are not necessarily weak. Their inner strength, focus, and product competitiveness determine success or failure. What

can really bring us to the future is not the appreciation of the land and houses of the building itself. There has never been a high-tech company that can recover its decline by selling a house when it is down. At most, it is lingering. Its true value is to be an excellent place to inspire our global innovation and creation in the future. It is its convenience, good functionality, smooth operation and efficient operation management services. Today, I am very happy, and I am very grateful to the Anhui Provincial Investment Group and the High-tech Zone for this piece of construction for us, which can be called a first-class R&D building group on a global scale.

hopes that the endless lighting, day and night operation of technological innovation, product creation and intellectual output in this building complex in the future can enter the lives of more ordinary people around the world from here, bringing them happiness, convenience and health. Let the sweat and hard work of all the construction workers and Anhui fathers and villagers who worked hard for this in the early stage, so that every brick and every tile here has more meaning.

makes Huami's efforts and value creation worthy of everyone's expectations and support. Huami students, come on!

Here I want to thank the provincial and municipal government departments at all levels and the Anhui Provincial Investment Group for their long-term care and support. We are a startup company that has grown up on this land, and this is our foundation. Hefei is not only a highland of science and education, but also a land of entrepreneurship.

I stillI would like to thank Lei Jun Lei, who specially commissioned Mr. Liu De, the co-founder, partner and senior vice president of Xiaomi, to come to Hefei to attend our ribbon-cutting event. I also want to thank Wang Ye, Yongfeng, Brothers like Gao Xue, they are also my maiden family.

Thank you all!
