At the beginning of the new year, I would like to share some of the latest information about Windows 10 and Windows 10 devices. All of us have been excited about the exciting user feedback on Windows 10, and we are deeply responsible. First, let's share the latest developments on the road to achieving the goal of running Windows 10 on more than 1 billion devices.

Windows has ushered in unprecedented high user engagement, with only over 10 billion hours of cumulative use of Windows 10 in December last year.

One way to measure the progress of Windows 10 is to understand how people use Windows. Recently, we have innovated high —— only in December last year, people spent more than 11 billion hours using Windows 10, more than ever before using Windows.

Many people upgraded for the safest and fastest Windows, and they also enjoyed a new and fun experience. Whether using a new web browser, asking for help from smart personal assistant Cortana, playing games, or becoming more efficient, people are increasingly using Windows. As more and more people use Windows 10, Windows 10 brings people a better experience — & Microsoft; Bina is becoming more and more intelligent, Microsoft Edge browser compatibility through a wider range Testing, we provide developers with a more engaging environment, and these will ultimately enable us to provide users with more and more features that everyone likes.

The Windows Store has maintained high growth in 2015, bringing a lot of opportunities for developers.

One of Microsoft’s main investments in Windows 10 is to create a unified platform that allows developers to access a wide range of Windows 10 devices through a unified Windows Store and with just one application, including PCs, tablets, phones and more. Individuals and businesses can see the new app show page in the Windows Store to discover and get more content. At present, the number of new app stores has exceeded 3 billion, and more and more general-purpose applications have come to Windows 10. The world's top developers have also released new games through the Windows Store, including Minecraft: Story Mode——A Telltale Game Series and Tank World: Blitz, and including Tomb Raider: Rise More games within will also log into the Windows Store in 2016. These developers have seen a lot of business opportunities from millions of users, and this is just the beginning.

With the upcoming Microsoft HoloLens Developer Suite, Microsoft HoloLens will continue to offer developers more opportunities.
