Scientific and technological innovation has become the core driving force for the development of today's era. From the national aerospace and new infrastructure, down to the daily life, rice, oil and salt, all of them are becoming more and more advanced under the empowerment of innovation, and our lives are becoming more and more beautiful.
On November 3rd, the annual National Science and Technology Awards Conference was held in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, and Academician Gu Shufen of Aviation Industry Corporation of China and Academician Wang Dazhong of Tsinghua University won the highest national science and technology award. For a time, scientific and technological innovation has once again become a hot topic in society.
How far away is innovation from us? What role does innovation play in our lives? In fact, innovation is all around us, in every corner of our lives.
Cultural innovation, cross-border out of the circle with book clubs, home appliance brands inject new connotations into a better life
Home appliances, which have always been a function-oriented category, are rarely connected to culture. However, with the improvement of people's living standards and the transformation of consumption concepts, while facing huge life pressure and fast pace, the home appliance industry is also undergoing major changes.
I don't know when", "too many emotions, limited words" and "no words to say, no heart to communicate" have become common to many Chinese families. Contemporary people have a growing demand for housing space, but there is less and less "space" for talking at home.
As the saying goes, the fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals. Once the family chatted while cooking and listened to each other. However, with the entry of range hoods into modern households, the oil smoke pollution has been significantly reduced, but the rumbling noise has made the kitchen a "forbidden place" for families, blocking the original natural and rich communication.
Recently, a.o. Smith and Fan Deng Reading cross-border cooperation, bringing cultural atmosphere to the kitchen, with cultural innovation, to create a better kitchen life.
Only cultural self-confidence can cultural innovation. Cultural self-confidence comes from strength, which is ability and experience for a person, and products and values for an enterprise.
On the road to creating a beautiful family relationship, a.o. Smith has always been consistent with "Hot". "瀞", three points of water connected to a "quiet", expressing the multiple meanings of "very quiet, very clean". Similarly, the significance of the a.o. Smith "Hot" range hood is not limited to a home appliance, but also reflects its new strategic layout, and the imagination space for a better life for Chinese families is infinitely expanded.
"Seo", culturally, gives the kitchen a beautiful emotion.
In the dialogue, Qiu Bu, senior vice president of A.o. Smith Group and president of China Company, and Fan Deng, chief content officer of Fan Deng Reading, shared their reading experience of the book "The Most Important Thing Is Only One", and in this in-depth dialogue linking life experience, Qiu Bu and Fan Deng reached a consensus that a good family relationship can start in a quiet kitchen. A book, a value, a methodology, to create a quiet kitchen, bringing a smart, healthy and comfortable life experience.
Technological innovation, with a new noise reduction design, to create a new era of quiet kitchen
"The way to strive for excellence is to create a domino effect in your life: do the right thing well, and its energy is enough to propel several things, or even more." ("The Most Important Thing Is Only One Thing")
Home appliances are one of the important contents of the house, many users hope that home appliances products will perform more humanely, to help create a home atmosphere conducive to dialogue and listening, which promotes the transformation and upgrading of the home appliance industry from the consumer side. More and more home appliance brands take science and technology as the starting point, focusing on the "quiet" characteristics of the new value breakthrough point of products, and noise improvement has gradually become a new weather vane.
According to the monitoring data of Aowei Cloud Network, in the first half of 2021, major household appliance categories including washing machines, air conditioners, water heaters and range hoods have pushed the "silent" selling point. Especially in the kitchen scene, it is difficult to achieve a better interactive and immersive experience without mute. Suction, cleanliness and noise are the three determinants of consumers' choice of range hoods.
At the conversation site, the a.o. Smith "Hot" hood was always in operation at maximum horsepower, but the guests were immersed in the conversation and did not feel its presence at all. The quietness of the "Hot" range hood surprised everyone at the scene. Fan Deng was even more impressed, "We usually turn off all the equipment that can make a sound in the video, and today there is a hood in the studio." ”
A.O. Smith completely subverted the traditional hood structural design. From a technical point of view, a.o. Smith pioneered a distributed silent structure, that is, the fan is separated from the main body of the smoke machine, and moved up into the ceiling, so that the noise is away from the human ear. In addition to physically lengthening the "distance" from the main noise source (fan), the air duct of the smoke machine also adopts a streamlined maze design, which greatly reduces the noise volume by cutting the "propagation" path of noise. On the fan, a.o. Smith also made a lot of technical innovations in inlet and outlet air noise reduction this time, including accurately calculating the golden angle of each impeller, while accurately displaying the "actual exhaust air volume" with digital, while ensuring large air volume and large suction, it still runs very quietly, creating a good home and communication environment.
At present, the a.o. Smith "Hao" range hood has passed the "Jiadian Evaluation" of the Evaluation Center of the China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute. At the same time, according to the "Range Hood Silent Grading Evaluation Specification" issued by the China Hardware Products Association, it has obtained the Beijing China Light And Light Federation Certification Center (cclc) Level 1 Silent*3 certification.
A.o. All of Smith's products are centered on "letting more people have a good life related to the scene" to carry out a variety of product innovation. With the blessing of science and technology, multi-scenario interconnected smart home life, including kitchens, is coming.
Statistics show that as of now, the capacity of China's kitchen scene has reached 290.7 billion yuan, ranking first in the capacity of all scenes in the Chinese household market, and the kitchen has become the largest home appliance center. Home appliance companies represented by A.O. Smith are seeking progress with "quiet", breaking through the pain points of Chinese kitchens and seeking longer-term development.
Conclusion: Work with more families to create a blueprint for the modern home
Home and everything, "living and working in peace" describes Chinese an ideal state of life, but "living in peace" does not only mean having a house, but also means having a home atmosphere of love and harmony.
A.o. Smith not only launched the "Hot" range hood and became the pioneer of quiet kitchen, but also linked the wind and water in the home through ai-link full control of the professional integration of cold and warm feng shui, drawing a beautiful blueprint for the modern home with the "feng shui strategy".
The future of a better life is gradually becoming clear in the innovative technologies that continue to emerge in all walks of life, but A.O. Smith, who takes the lead in the circle with scientific and technological and cultural innovation, is by no means the only one in the industry, but it also provides a favorable reference for the latecomers.
Looking forward to the future of a beautiful home life, as soon as possible into thousands of households.
