If it has secure boot, is opensource, and not dependent on having a single entity approve of self compiled binaries OE blobs (like UEFI forcing Microsoft's approval of bootloaders), then heck yeah, this might be great! Otherwise, if it's just some proprietary, closed source alternative to the existing crap, my enthusiasm is limited.
The machine translated version of the Fast Technology/mydrivers article does not mention any of this.
That's disappointing. But maybe once they officially release it, we will have more information.
Disappointing but not unexpected. Most Chinese companies still work on the "absolute secrecy because competitors might steal our tech" ideology. Which hinders a lot of things...
