8月3日，聯(lián)想集團(tuán)子公司摩托羅拉與美國(guó)移動(dòng)運(yùn)營(yíng)商Verizon聯(lián)合發(fā)布了世界首款5G智能手機(jī)Moto Z3。4日，聯(lián)想集團(tuán)董事長(zhǎng)兼CEO楊元慶在職場(chǎng)社交平臺(tái)LinkedIn(領(lǐng)英)上發(fā)表了一篇英文文章，闡述了5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)將對(duì)我們未來(lái)生活帶來(lái)的巨大影響，以及它所帶來(lái)的巨大機(jī)遇。

　　以下是翻譯成中文的文章全文：

　　回顧移動(dòng)技術(shù)在我們今天世界中所推動(dòng)的全面變革，是一件令人驚嘆的事情。從1983年在摩托羅拉DynaTAC手機(jī)上第一次實(shí)現(xiàn)手機(jī)通話開(kāi)始，手機(jī)已幾乎遍布了我們生活的每一個(gè)角落，而它們所依賴的移動(dòng)網(wǎng)絡(luò)讓更多設(shè)備變得“智能化”——從門鈴到汽車。我們生活在一個(gè)高度互聯(lián)的世界，未來(lái)創(chuàng)新的可能性實(shí)際上是無(wú)窮無(wú)盡的。

　　在我們回想過(guò)去35年移動(dòng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)如何改變世界的同時(shí)，本周我們也迎來(lái)了一個(gè)重要里程碑，聯(lián)想和我們的合作伙伴Verizon一起實(shí)現(xiàn)了一個(gè)世界第一。利用摩托羅拉Moto Z3智能手機(jī)和Moto Mod模塊技術(shù)以及Verizon的5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)，聯(lián)想成為第一家將移動(dòng)用戶連接到5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)的制造商。這一里程碑事件不僅標(biāo)志著我們公司長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)在創(chuàng)新和技術(shù)領(lǐng)域的領(lǐng)先地位，也標(biāo)志著我們的堅(jiān)定承諾——讓我們的客戶隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備能做更多事情。

　　但智能手機(jī)只是5G所帶來(lái)的眾多機(jī)遇的一部分。據(jù)估計(jì)，現(xiàn)在的物聯(lián)網(wǎng)設(shè)備數(shù)量已經(jīng)超過(guò)人類數(shù)量。

　　雖然物聯(lián)網(wǎng)的爆炸式發(fā)展意味著設(shè)備正在發(fā)生變化并變得“更智能”，但為它們提供動(dòng)力的技術(shù)也是如此。實(shí)際上，面對(duì)設(shè)備以及我們使用它們的方式不斷增長(zhǎng)的需求，包括不斷增長(zhǎng)的視頻流量消耗、更復(fù)雜的應(yīng)用和增強(qiáng)/虛擬現(xiàn)實(shí)，5G將是唯一能夠?yàn)槠涮峁┲С值募夹g(shù)標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。此外，5G將成為能夠讓智能制造和其它革命性的工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)(IIoT)應(yīng)用于生活的引擎。

　　隨著人們消費(fèi)習(xí)慣不斷變化以及物聯(lián)網(wǎng)和工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)的普及，支撐這一切的網(wǎng)絡(luò)才是真正的英雄。為確保為更多手機(jī)提供高速/低延遲的傳輸，壓縮和在線播放視頻，以及更有效地處理復(fù)雜的消費(fèi)級(jí)和工業(yè)級(jí)應(yīng)用，我們需要更動(dòng)態(tài)和靈活的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。我們比大多數(shù)人更了解動(dòng)態(tài)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的含義，因?yàn)樗�是我們�?shù)據(jù)中心業(yè)務(wù)的核心。我們正在與包括中國(guó)移動(dòng)在內(nèi)的世界各地的主要電信運(yùn)營(yíng)商合作，通過(guò)虛擬軟件的部署，將5G網(wǎng)絡(luò)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施推向中國(guó)市場(chǎng)。

　　本周Moto Z3的發(fā)布為一個(gè)充滿可能性的未來(lái)奠定了基礎(chǔ)。我很自豪地看到，聯(lián)想在5G未來(lái)的每個(gè)組成部分都不可或缺——從今天客戶手中的智能手機(jī)，到我們正在銷售并將繼續(xù)開(kāi)發(fā)的許多智能物聯(lián)網(wǎng)設(shè)備，再到支撐這一切的網(wǎng)絡(luò)。這種整體的發(fā)展方式——著眼于端到端的挑戰(zhàn)——意味著我們不僅能夠支持當(dāng)今的5G需求，還能擁抱未來(lái)更智能、更互聯(lián)的世界所帶來(lái)的機(jī)遇和潛力。(劉春)

　　5G – The Next Milestone For Mobile Technology

　　It’s amazing to look back at the total transformation that mobile technology has driven in the world we live in today. From its birth with the first mobile phone call in 1983 on a Motorola DynaTAC, the cellphone pervades almost every part of our lives, and the mobile network upon which they rely is enabling even more devices to become ‘smart’ - from doorbells to cars. We live in a hyper-connected world where the possibilities for future innovation are virtually endless.

　　As we reflect on how the mobile internet has changed the world over the last 35 years we are also marking a major milestone this week, as Lenovo, together with our partner Verizon, delivers a world first. The first manufacturer to connect mobile users with a 5G network - using the Motorola Moto Z3 and Moto Mod technology and Verizon’s 5G network*. A milestone that not only signals our company’s long heritage of innovation and technology leadership, but our deep commitment to enabling our customers to always be ready to do more. You can read more about the great work we’re doing together with Verizon here

　　But smartphones only represent one part of the 5G opportunity. It’s estimated that there are already more connected IoT (Internet of Things) devices than there are humans alive today.

　　While the explosion in the Internet of Things means devices are transforming and becoming ‘smarter,’ the technology that powers them is too. In fact 5G will be the only standard capable of supporting the increasing demands of devices and how we use them – increasing consumption of video, more complex applications and augmented/virtual reality just for starters. Moreover, 5G will be the engine that can bring smart manufacturing and other transformative industrial IoT (IIoT) applications to life.

　　With those ever changing consumption habits and proliferation of IoT and IIoT it’s the network that underpins it all that’s the real hero. To ensure high-speed/low-latency transmissions for more phones; compress and stream video, and process complex consumer and industrial applications more efficiently the infrastructure needs to be dynamic and flexible. We understand more than most what dynamic infrastructure means, given it’s at the heart of our data center business. We are working with major telecom providers around the world, including China Mobile – the world’s largest mobile telecommunications company, where we are partnering with them to bring 5G ready network infrastructure to market in China through a virtualized software implementation.

　　This week’s announcement sets the stage for a future full of possibilities. I’m proud to see how Lenovo is integral to every part of a 5G future – from the smartphone in a customer’s hand today, to the many smart IoT devices we sell and will continue to develop, to the network that underpins it all. This holistic approach to development – looking at the challenges end-to-end, means we are not only able to support the 5G demands of today, but to embrace the opportunities and potential of tomorrow’s smarter and more connected world.
