According to CTOnews.com news on August 31, the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Academy of Engineering respectively announced on their official website lists of effective candidates for academicians in 2023, among which 655 candidates were confirmed for academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering.

CTOnews.com found Xu Wenwei of Huawei Technology Co., Ltd. and Wang Haifeng of Beijing Baidu Netcom Technology Co., Ltd. on the list from the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Among them, Xu Wenwei's nominee is Academician Yang Shanlin and Wang Haifeng's nominee is Academician Gao Wen.

Xu Wenwei joined Huawei in 1991. As a first-generation Huawei entrepreneur, Xu Wenwei successively presided over the research and development of a series of major products such as Huawei's first-generation office program-controlled switch, the first chip, the first GSM system, and the first cloud data center core switch, which established Huawei's international leading position in chip research and development (Haise Semiconductor), mobile network, data center network and other key businesses. He is currently a director of Huawei and director of the Institute of Strategic Studies.

Wang Haifeng is currently the chief technology officer of Baidu and director of the National Engineering Research Center for Deep Learning Technology and Applied Engineering. He joined Baidu in January 2010, promoted to vice president in October 2013, promoted to senior vice president in May 2018, and was appointed Chief Technology Officer (CTO) in May 2019. He is the first Chinese president of ACL, the most influential international academic organization in the field of natural language processing.

It is worth mentioning that neither Xu Wenwei nor Wang Haifeng has been on the list of candidates for academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering for the first time. Xu Wenwei was shortlisted in 2021, and Wang Haifeng was shortlisted twice in 2019 and 2021, so it is unclear whether he will be elected this year.

In addition, Lian Yubo, chief scientist of BYD Group, and Wu Kai, chief scientist of Ningde era, were selected as candidates for the Department of Machinery and Transportation Engineering of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. In July this year, Wu Kai and his team stood out from more than 600 candidates for lithium battery safety technology and won the 2023 European inventor Award in the category of "non-European Patent Office member States Award".
