As the AI wave sweeps across various industries, the smart home industry, as an important application scenario of AI, is facing an unprecedented transformation.

The 2025 China Home Appliances and Consumer Electronics Expo (AWE2025) was held at the Shanghai New International Expo Center, vividly presenting a future smart life scenario dominated by AI to global customers.

Deeply integrating AI applications in various smart life scenarios, AWE2025, themed "AI Technology, AI Life," featured over a thousand leading global companies in home appliances, consumer electronics, smart homes, and new energy vehicles, showcasing innovative achievements in smart life driven by AI technology.

As a benchmark in the smart home industry and a long-time participant in AWE, at AWE2025, Shaohai Hui focused on "AI makes life smarter and better," showcasing five smart home brands: Youwu, Boloni, Haier Whole-House Home, Haili Windows and Doors, and Wodi Home, collaborating with Haier's Casarte, Haier, and Leader home appliance brands and the Sanwingbird scene brand to create an integrated smart space where home appliances and home furnishings perfectly blend.

In the era of AI-driven industrial transformation, home appliances, consumer electronics, home furnishings, and home decoration are moving towards deep integration.

Since its establishment in 2016, Shaohai Hui has been promoting the cross-border integration of home furnishings and home appliances around technology, products, and scenarios, continuously optimizing services and innovating user experiences.

It can be said that Shaohai Hui has become a "front-runner" in the transformation of smart homes under the AI wave.

Focusing on Shaohai Hui's Five Brands

Focusing on the AWE 2025 scene:

Haier Whole-House Home and Boloni started with integrated cabinet and appliance design. Different styles of suite products create integrated services that combine personalization and high-end quality for high-end home appliance brands, achieving "beautiful, easy to use, and worry-free" and innovative experiences.

Zhijing MAX, Commander, and Connoisseur create a multi-functional dining and kitchen hall, presenting a modern kitchen space integrating smart home appliances, efficient lighting, and streamlined design.

In the open-plan apartment created by Boloni, using a 300-square-meter large flat as a sample, it showcases the design style of an integrated kitchen and living room, a diversified dining room, and a suite-style bedroom walk-in closet, and uses techniques such as bringing scenery into the room, separating but not isolating, and small spatial circulation to achieve different emotions and feelings from every perspective.

In addition, the Sanwingbird × Boloni Smart Kitchen new product launch conference was grandly held, with guests including Cui Zhen, general manager of Haier Zhijia Sanwingbird; Cai Ming, founder and chairman of Boloni Home Group; Cai Xingguo, CEO of Boloni Home and Haier Whole-House Home; and Li Xiaofeng, general manager of Haier Zhijia R&D platform planning, gathering together to witness the innovative achievements in the smart kitchen field. The successful holding of the new product launch ceremony marks a new height in the cooperation between Sanwingbird and Boloni, not only providing consumers with more comfortable and convenient smart kitchen products, but also conveying the brand's emphasis on spiritual connotation and people-oriented new luxury lifestyle concept, leading the new trend in the future development of smart kitchens.

Haier Whole-House Home integrates with Casarte, Haier, and Leader home appliances, and Sanwingbird jointly creates integrated home appliance and home furnishing scenarios, using exquisite craftsmanship to build a quality reputation and meticulous design to solve pain points for consumers.

Haier Whole-House Home appeared at AWE2025, leveraging Haier home appliances' intelligent genes and combining the trend of home appliance and home furnishing integration to create intelligent scenarios such as smart kitchens, laundry balconies, and living rooms. The combination of quality and appearance, coupled with an intelligent storage system, makes efficient use of every inch of space, meeting customized needs and making the home tidier; selecting environmentally friendly materials that are moisture-proof and durable, enhancing the quality of life in the details; creating a personalized home, shaping the imagination and pursuit of quality life with minimalist aesthetics and light luxury elegance; dopamine color matching creates a colorful social space for extroverts, and a creamy style creates an atmosphere of "healing" space for introverts, providing users with diverse lifestyles from multiple dimensions such as color, lighting, and design details.

At the same time, at this exhibition, Haili Windows and Doors exhibited the Tianshang H155 lifting and sliding door, with a large-view design and excellent sealing and heat preservation performance, possessing high load-bearing capacity, scratch resistance, and durability, making life full of quality and surprises.

Wodi Home Furnishing showcased the Lawrence multi-functional electric leather sofa - Lofei series, equipped with a smart home brain voice interconnection. It features AI voice control, scene linkage, personalized customization, dual-purpose functionality, a zero-wall sofa that can switch between regular and electric modes, and space-saving design minimizing the distance needed from the wall. The health smart sofa, also showcased, includes heating and health check functions, providing attentive home health monitoring with real-time report output. Combining comfort and entertainment, its innovative features such as the "AI health detection system" and "electric auxiliary heating" have attracted widespread attention and discussion within and outside the industry.

The sofas use skin-friendly cowhide, pull-point design, and imported Russian larch wood for the main frame, with soft and elastic padding for the waist, back, hips, and legs, providing a full sense of envelopment.

Addressing consumer pain points, achieving true home appliance integration.

In recent years, the national level has been vigorously promoting the integrated development of home furnishing and home appliances.

As early as 2022, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and three other departments jointly issued the "Action Plan to Promote the High-Quality Development of the Home Furnishing Industry," clearly proposing to "encourage cross-industry cooperation, strengthen cooperation and complementarity in product design, technological research and development, marketing services, and resource docking, leading the integrated development of the home furnishing industry and consumption upgrades."

Earlier this year, the nationwide "trade-in" program for consumer goods continued to gain momentum, expanding the subsidy scope of home appliance products while also including home decoration and kitchen and bathroom products in the trade-in subsidy. After the national subsidy for home appliances, the era of national subsidy for home decoration has also arrived.

From the perspective of actual implementation, due to the different characteristics of the home furnishing and home appliance industries, truly achieving cross-border integration and integrated development is not an easy task.

From the consumer's perspective, the ability to resonate with consumers does not merely stop at marketing gimmicks, but rather promotes integrated services to solve all aspects of the process, providing users with a truly time-saving, labor-saving, and worry-free one-stop shopping experience, becoming a development trend.

This AWE exhibition paid meticulous attention to detail in its implementation. For example, in the integrated cabinet and appliance solution of Boloni and Casarte, the refrigerator is designed with baseboards and waistlines consistent with the cabinets, making the cabinets and refrigerators seamlessly integrated while maintaining a unified aesthetic style.

TOB and TOC synergy, providing comprehensive customer service.

During AWE2025, the Three-Winged Bird investment promotion meeting and the Haier Smart Home 2025 Government-Enterprise Ecological Conference were held simultaneously in Shanghai.

As Haier Group's smart home division, Shaohai Hui has conducted in-depth analysis of the needs of integrated home furnishing and home appliances, actively addressing the pain points of governments and enterprises in the transition from single products to full-scenario solutions for smart homes, creating a product matrix, promoting the upgrading of the industrial chain value, and providing users with a more comfortable home experience.

Currently, Shaohai Hui's government and enterprise business and consumer business are working together, focusing on the application of the Internet of Things and new industrialization construction technologies in the field of smart homes, providing comprehensive services to B-end and C-end customers.

In the future, Shaohai Hui will continue to uphold its user-centric approach, cooperate with multiple parties to jointly create a new AI ecosystem that makes life smarter and better, and unlock more possibilities for future life for users.
