With current AI technology undergoing rapid iterations, the Group has proposed the strategic concept of "All in AI, AI for All." On one hand, the Group fully internalizes the benefits of AI technology, deeply embedding intelligent capabilities across networks, computing power, and terminals. It aims to reshape communication networks along with products and solutions for enterprises, households, and consumers through AI-native concepts, while vigorously accelerating organizational intelligent transformation. On the other hand, in the face of uncertainty, the Group fully considers the non-linear characteristics of AI technology iterations. By focusing on four dimensionsopen decoupling, flexible expansion, extreme collaboration, and scenario adaptationit maintains architectural design flexibility and openness and reserves dynamic adjustment space in resource allocation, building an AI resilience system characterized by "small steps, fast running, and full-speed evolution." In the future, the collaboration of computing power, networks, energy, and algorithms will embed AI across all aspects of social operations. Moving towards a new phase of "human-machine symbiosis," the Group upholds its ecological position as a value contributor, continually innovating and collaborating with global partners to build a more robust and prosperous ecosystem. The Group has been engaged in chip research and development since 1996, continuously enhancing investments in advanced architecture, packaging design, process design, core intellectual property, and a digital high-efficiency development platform. It focuses on improving system-level performance and has achieved breakthroughs in key technologies such as heterogeneous computing, Chiplet interconnection, 3D stacking packaging, and software-hardware collaborative tuning, possessing industry-leading end-to-end chip design capabilities. The Group roots itself in the R&D of underlying DICT chip technologies and, with the integrated development of computing and networking, constructs a highly efficient, green, and intelligent full-stack computing and networking foundation centered around "data, computing power, and networks." By developing products that meet the core needs of diverse "cloud, edge, and terminal" scenarios, it has created self-developed customized processor chips, DPU Dinghai chips, switching chips, full-mode fusion architecture smart gateway chips, optical access processor chips (supporting 50G PON), and 800G coherent DSP chips, which have been delivered to multiple industries, including carriers and the internet, supporting sustained competitive leadership. Additionally, the Group extends its chip capabilities to the automotive electronics field, focusing on "connection + computation" and laying out integrated central computing SoCs for cockpit control "Lanyue" A series, central computing platform SoCs "Hanyu" M series, vehicle-grade V2X communication chips S series, and module solutions, achieving commercial use or designated installations with brands such as FAW, SAIC, and GAC. The Group's self-developed GoldenDB database continues to innovate product offerings, forming a product matrix covering all scenarios; it has released the GoldenDB vector version to create an integrated data foundation for the AI era. Three database productsGoldenDB database V7, GoldenDB Lite database V7, and GoldenDB EBASE V3have passed national safety and reliability assessments, with GoldenDB database V7 achieving a secondary assessment in distributed databases, which is the highest evaluation level in the field of distributed databases. GoldenDB has solidified its leading position in the finance and telecommunications sectors. According to the "China Database Industry Map (2026)" released by the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology, GoldenDB has maintained the first ranking as the leading transactional database in the financial and telecom industries and has newly gained the leading position in government affairs; it has also ranked prominently in key industries such as transportation, energy, healthcare, the internet, and manufacturing for transactional databases. Since 2002, the Group has independently developed operating systems, achieving a series of results in core areas such as kernel, basic libraries, virtualization, intelligence, and toolchains. Its real-time performance, reliability, security, and intelligence are at the industry's leading level, forming a comprehensive series of operating system solutions covering embedded, server, desktop, and terminal device types, widely applied in telecommunications, automobiles, electricity, rail transit, and civil aviation, providing powerful, secure, and reliable foundational software support to global customers. Amid immense transformations in artificial intelligence and human-computer interaction paradigms, the Group has launched the AIOS, a new anchor for intelligent agent businesses, which integrates traditional OSs mature engineering capabilities with large-scale system construction, full-scenario practices, and AI full-stack technology, creating a lightweight, efficient, secure, and controllable intelligent agent operating system, now serving as the AI technology foundation that covers all product lines, enabling scaled commercialization across multiple scenarios. The Group's operating system has successively won the First Prize for Science and Technology from the China Communications Society and the Fourth China Industrial Award. It has undergone telecom-grade Linux certification from OSDL (Open Source Development Laboratory), security certification for dedicated products in network security (level four), IT product information security evaluation assurance level 4 (EAL4) enhanced certification, automotive electronics ISO 26262 ASIL-D management certification and product certification, IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) POSIX PSE52 certification, security and reliability assessment of server operating systems, and Tier 3 (optimized) certification for software supply chain security capabilities.
