Xin Lang Cai Jing·2025-07-06 13:28Core Viewpoint - The idea of completely banning Windows and Android systems in favor of the HarmonyOS is considered unrealistic due to the extensive reliance on these systems across various sectors in China, including finance, transportation, and daily life [1][5][9]. Group 1: Windows System Impact - Windows plays a crucial role in various sectors such as government, enterprise, and critical infrastructure, with over 60% of banking core systems based on Windows NT architecture [3][11]. - A recent incident highlighted the dependency on Windows when a software issue caused significant flight delays at a major airport, demonstrating the potential consequences of a Windows ban [3][11]. - Transitioning away from Windows would incur extremely high costs, with financial sector migrations estimated to require several years and investments in the hundreds of billions [13]. Group 2: Android System Impact - Android is deeply integrated into daily life in China, with over 720 million users, accounting for 78% of all smartphone users, making it essential for activities like mobile payments and remote work [7][9]. - The current ecosystem of HarmonyOS is limited, primarily confined to Huawei devices, with only about 30% of devices running a pure HarmonyOS environment [7][9]. - A sudden ban on Android would disrupt the lives of millions, particularly vulnerable groups such as migrant workers and students who rely on affordable Android devices [9][11]. Group 3: Transition Strategy - A complete ban on existing systems would be counterproductive, and a gradual migration strategy is recommended, focusing on pilot programs in critical areas while supporting developer ecosystems [15].
