How to install pyVim in centos 7 with pip 20.3.4

[jarviszhu123abc]

Hi,
I am using a Centos 7.9 to run some ansible playbook command for VMware installation.
It is needed to install a pyVim first.

but when I run pip install pyVim or pip install setuptools --upgrade, it is failed and it suggests to upgrade pip into 21.3.1 version.
But as I checked, the Centos7 was already intergrated with python 2.7.5 and the latest pip version for it is 20.3.4. it cannot be upgrade to 21.3.1.

Could you help to see how can I install the pyVim in a Centos 7 environment?

Thanks

Below are some commands I run

This looks like you're using python 2. Pyvim only runs on Python 3.6 or above.
