First, the enterprise customer perspective to think, how to develop a perfect trustworthy products. This perfect refers to the perfect reliability, perfect stability, perfect manageability. Second, think about how to use innovative solutions, innovative means to meet the changes I have just talked about the business, the data center with the change in demand. Third, to be based on the future of thinking, we have to focus on the future, we want to embrace the future of technological change.

Finally, for the product features, Gao Wenping A thermal example, because heat dissipation is the system or data center stability of the biggest enemy. He says Lenovo has passed three optimizations in the heat dissipation of new products. The first is the most advanced refrigeration program, the second is the intelligent fan control model, the third application of the industry's best, the latest, the highest performance of the construction of a thinkserver thermal solution.

After the introduction of the main meeting CSDN and Gao Wenping conducted an in-depth communication, on Lenovo's current positioning, strategy, products, future planning topics such as in-depth discussion.

Gao Wenping told CSDN, since the merger of IBM that day, Lenovo for its own positioning has a very clear goal, that is to become the world's first. Lenovo will fully coordinate the relevant resources, inherit its own technical advantages, brand advantages, and so on, rapid replication of a PC-like path, so that Lenovo Server become the world's first. Gao Wenping Even use the words "very obviously" to emphasize the inevitability of this goal.

Gao Wenping pointed out that the Lenovo server has now achieved a phased victory. In China, Lenovo server occupies the market's first throne "around the Corner", is currently with IBM x86 product line integration, about a year or so to achieve the goal.

When it comes to the main advantages of Lenovo and other competitors, Gao Wenping stressed: "We are a lot of things are the industry's only." For the newly released 5th Generation Thinkserver, Gao Wenping is described by "very good" and says Lenovo's new generation of servers has many of the industry's only technology. And in the specific product details, responsible for the development of Li Naijie and responsible for product Zhou Deiliang in-depth analysis.

Li Naijie points out that Lenovo is the only server vendor to be integrated at the moment, which is enough to be proud of. From the hardware level, a new generation of servers in the market, a rare competitor. In addition, in the tower server, Lenovo's new product has a smaller, more dense advantages, which other competing products can not be.

Zhou Deiliang said that the 5th generation Thinkserver 1U 2-way server in front of the 12 hard drive warehouse, this is the industry's only, but also indicates that Lenovo's server can support more high-density applications; second, the user's most concerned about the heat problem, Lenovo new server can be perennial, 365 days 24 hours high reliability run, no problem. Zhou Deiliang pointed out that Lenovo's 5th generation Thinkserver also has a lot of "unique", such as Anybay design, can plug SaaS, PCiE SSD, and can full warehouse. In addition, Lenovo is also the only one to support 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch manufacturers, with a 9x3.5 and 6x2.5.

When asked about what the server market integration could bring to Lenovo, Gao Wenping said the server market was important to Lenovo and of course significant. First, the server business is high margin business, itself it is a profit pool; Secondly, with the background of the device Lenovo has an End-to-end program support, Lenovo has a customer base, brand Foundation and front-end equipment can be integrated together to become a whole solution provider to meet customers.

From the perspective of enterprise customers, Lenovo emphasized the advantages of user experience superimposed, mainly reflected in what areas? Gao Wenping talked about, we talk about superiority superposition, here it is actually multi-dimensional. First, look at the first floor, is also the most basic, in the traditional PC market, Lenovo launched a PC strategy, on the traditional PC based on the superposition of Lenovo mobile phones, tablets, and even the upcoming Lenovo wearable equipment, etc., for a large number of customers with a variety of terminal devices, this is Lenovo's first superposition. At the same time, we also know that a huge number of mobile devices have produced a huge amount of data and information, but also generated a huge amount of interaction needs. Therefore, we have to provide stable and reliable background computing and storage equipment for these terminals. So, we have a second layer of overlay, we provide customers with backend server, storage, network equipment, such as enterprise-class products and solutions, and front-end terminal equipment to form a complete combination of the whole device. Finally, he said that the superposition of the advantages of Lenovo is not a simple product tax, Lenovo superimposed business is to continuously enhance the customer experience. Therefore, the third layer overlay means to provide customers with cloud-based applications and services. This includes not only all kinds of cloud business platform, for each industry cloud computing applications, but also includes the cloud computing architecture design, deployment, consulting and other aspects of all service capabilities. The core of the advantage superposition is to create the End-to-end integration advantage, to bring a new experience to customers.

Finally Gao Wenping His understanding of Lenovo's future in the cloud strategy and the so-called global infrastructure provider's ecological environment. He said that the future is still to adhere to the two-legged walk, the first is with the industry-leading Integrator ISV cooperation; second, the big Lenovo culture must adhere to the existing PC channel transformation. Gao Wenping pointed out that Lenovo's business to hold the confidence to win, the future will be Lenovo server to do the world's first.
