以下是翻譯成中文的文章全文：
回顧移動技術在我們今天世界中所推動的全面變革，是一件令人驚嘆的事情。從1983年在摩托羅拉DynaTAC手機上第一次實現手機通話開始，手機已幾乎遍布了我們生活的每一個角落，而它們所依賴的移動網絡讓更多設備變得“智能化”——從門鈴到汽車。我們生活在一個高度互聯的世界，未來創新的可能性實際上是無窮無盡的。
在我們回想過去35年移動互聯網如何改變世界的同時，本周我們也迎來了一個重要里程碑，聯想和我們的合作伙伴Verizon一起實現了一個世界第一。利用摩托羅拉Moto Z3智能手機和Moto Mod模塊技術以及Verizon的5G網絡，聯想成為第一家將移動用戶連接到5G網絡的制造商。這一里程碑事件不僅標志著我們公司長期以來在創新和技術領域的領先地位，也標志著我們的堅定承諾——讓我們的客戶隨時準備能做更多事情
但智能手機只是5G所帶來的眾多機遇的一部分。據估計，現在的物聯網設備數量已經超過人類數量。
雖然物聯網的爆炸式發展意味著設備正在發生變化并變得“更智能”，但為它們提供動力的技術也是如此。實際上，面對設備以及我們使用它們的方式不斷增長的需求，包括不斷增長的視頻流量消耗、更復雜的應用和增強/虛擬現實，5G將是唯一能夠為其提供支持的技術標準。此外，5G將成為能夠讓智能制造和其它革命性的工業物聯網(IIoT)應用于生活的引擎。
隨著人們消費習慣不斷變化以及物聯網和工業物聯網的普及，支撐這一切的網絡才是真正的英雄。為確保為更多手機提供高速/低延遲的傳輸，壓縮和在線播放視頻，以及更有效地處理復雜的消費級和工業級應用，我們需要更動態和靈活的基礎設施。我們比大多數人更了解動態基礎設施的含義，因為它是我們數據中心業務的核心。我們正在與包括中國移動在內的世界各地的主要電信運營商合作，通過虛擬軟件的部署，將5G網絡基礎設施推向中國市場。
本周Moto Z3的發布為一個充滿可能性的未來奠定了基礎。我很自豪地看到，聯想在5G未來的每個組成部分都不可或缺——從今天客戶手中的智能手機，到我們正在銷售并將繼續開發的許多智能物聯網設備，再到支撐這一切的網絡。這種整體的發展方式——著眼于端到端的挑戰——意味著我們不僅能夠支持當今的5G需求，還能擁抱未來更智能、更互聯的世界所帶來的機遇和潛力。(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.

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.
