We provide quantitative predictions for the rapidity, centrality and energy dependencies of inclusive charged-hadron productions for the forthcoming LHC measurements in nucleus-nucleus collisions based on the idea of gluon saturation in the color-glass condensate framework. Our formulation gives very good descriptions of the first data from the LHC for the inclusive charged-hadron production in proton-proton collisions, the deep inelastic scattering at the Hadron-Elektron-Ring-Anlage at small Bjorken x, and the hadron multiplicities in nucleus-nucleus collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.
