In July 2011, Xiaomi's founding team made its official debut, announcing its entry into the mobile phone market and fully disclosing its three core products, MIUI, MiLiao and Xiaomi Mobile Phones, for the first time. On August 16 of the same year, the first-generation Xiaomi mobile phone was officially released. The price of 1,999 yuan quickly attracted market attention and became one of the most representative price tags of Xiaomi mobile phones in the early days. Today, 15 years later, AI is becoming the technology direction that Xiaomi will focus on in the next stage. In March this year, Xiaomi released the flagship base model Xiaomi MiMo-V2-Pro, the all-modal base model Xiaomi MiMo-V2-Omni, and the speech synthesis model Xiaomi MiMo-V2-TTS for the agent era, further improving its large AI model layout. Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun previously said that Xiaomi is relatively low-key in the field of AI, but actual progress may be faster than outsiders imagine. He revealed that Xiaomi's R&D and capital investment in the AI ​​field this year will exceed 16 billion yuan, and said that as long as it continues to invest, Xiaomi is confident of delivering a brilliant answer in the AI ​​era. At Xiaomi's spring new product launch conference held on the evening of March 19 this year, Lei Jun further announced that in the next three years, Xiaomi plans to invest more than 60 billion yuan in the AI ​​field. Starting from mobile phones, it has gradually deployed hard-core technologies such as chips, cars, and AI. Xiaomi is taking AI as one of the core directions of future development. Xiaomi mobile phones, which are turning 15 years old, will also enter a new stage of development.
