According to the content of the article: Xiaopeng auto-driving ushered in a major personnel change, self-driving vice president Wu Xinzhou will leave and join Nvidia.

So with HNGP,CNGP and XNGP, set a precedent for Chinese brands to land high-level auxiliary driving, with China's intelligent electric vehicles leading the world's brilliance. Here, there is Xiaopeng's foresight and insistence on intelligence, and there are officers and soldiers of the three armed forces working hard. Also, the wave of intelligence coincides with the luck of the time. In addition, the hard work of the family, silent support and the sacrifice of gathering less and leaving more.

As for joining Xiaopeng Motor, Wu Xinzhou once said: "Xiaopeng Motor was chosen to join Xiaopeng because Xiaopeng Automobile is a technology company with excellent Internet genes and a sense of artificial intelligence innovation, has a solid vehicle team, and has the determination and strength of independent research and development. This is a unique advantage. I believe that Xiaopeng car will get stuck on the autopilot track and give a wonderful race. " Wu Xinzhou did not respond to the news about whether Wu Xinzhou joined Nvidia after leaving Xiaopeng Motor. However, he Xiaopeng mentioned in the article that Xinzhou will become the highest-ranking Chinese executive of a world-famous company, and will continue to cooperate deeply with Xiaopeng in many aspects such as chips, looking forward to his career reaching new heights, and also looking forward to in-depth cooperation in more fields around the world in the future.
