Xiaomi's Mi Home App has announced the official integration of Siemens home appliances, enabling users to seamlessly control them via Mi Smart Connect and XiaoAi Classmate. In welcoming this development, Lu Weibing, President of Xiaomi Group, extended an invitation to more brands to join the platform and clarified that there are no technical obstacles preventing Gree from achieving similar integration. Furthermore, Lu Weibing revealed that Xiaomi air conditioners are poised to claim the third spot in the industry by the end of this year and predicted that by 2030, Xiaomi will rank among the top two in domestic air conditioner sales.

According to recent data, Xiaomi air conditioners ranked third in the market with a share of 13.7% in July this year, marking a year-on-year growth rate of 53.9%. This impressive performance makes Xiaomi the only brand among the top three to achieve such rapid growth. Lu Weibing emphasized the significance of the trend towards intelligent traditional home appliances, stating that only through relentless innovation can the fiercely competitive "red ocean" market be transformed into a "blue ocean" brimming with opportunities.
