Recently, the automotive industry has been booming, with numerous car manufacturers capitalizing on the momentum generated by models like the Xiaomi SU7 to vigorously promote their own vehicles. This has propelled the new energy vehicle sector to unprecedented levels of popularity.
In the second quarter of this year, Huawei teamed up with Chery to launch the new model of the Zhiji S7. As a new energy vehicle powered by Huawei's HarmonyOS, the Zhiji S7 demonstrates the potential of the HarmonyOS in areas such as intelligent driving and in-car systems. Additionally, through the deep integration of HarmonyOS, the Zhiji S7 achieves seamless connectivity between the vehicle and smart devices, allowing users to conveniently control their smart home devices and enjoy a comprehensive smart living experience.

The PC product lineup is equally anticipated, with the MateBook series serving as Huawei's flagship laptop. Renowned for its sleek design and seamless integration with the Huawei ecosystem, the MateBook series has consistently earned praise in the market. It is expected that during the upcoming HarmonyOS Ecosystem Spring Communication Conference, Huawei will also unveil the latest models in the MateBook series.

In addition to the latest processor and hardware upgrades, the new MateBook is expected to further enhance its collaborative features with other Huawei devices as part of the Huawei ecosystem. This includes more convenient multi-screen collaboration and file sharing, aiming to provide users with a more seamless cross-device user experience.
According to the shipment report for the first quarter of 2023 released by the market research firm Canalys, although the overall shipment volume of desktop and laptop computers in China declined, Huawei performed remarkably well, emerging as the only brand with positive growth. The shipment volume of Huawei MateBooks grew by 34.1%, securing a market share of 10.7% to become the second-largest PC manufacturer in the country.
Huawei's growth amidst the overall decline in the market can be attributed to the interconnectivity capabilities of its HarmonyOS ecosystem. Essentially, as hardware in the PC realm relies heavily on the supply chain, differentiation among manufacturers in terms of hardware is challenging. Therefore, software emerges as the crucial breakthrough point for them to gain a competitive edge.
(In addition, with Huawei's ongoing development and optimization of the HarmonyOS, it is expected that more smart home devices, wearable technology, and other consumer electronics based on HarmonyOS will emerge. These products will further enrich Huawei's ecosystem and enhance users' smart living experience.)
