Chapter 181: The Battle of Hard and Soft
Looking at the promised introduction and meeting, Shengsheng turned into a debate conference, how special Google is, or simply how strange it is, Feng Yiping once again has a full understanding. ↖ Top-of-the-line ↖ ↖ novel ↖, x.
Most of the people, either angry or excited, were arguing, but the only ones who kept calm were the two who provoked the argument.
While the people around them have begun to use body language to emphasize their opinions, Page and Brin are accustomed to it, tinkering with their computers all the time, skillfully staying out of the whirlpool.
However, whenever everyone was a little slack, or a little discouraged, and did not want to argue anymore, one of them would always say a few words, and these few words were like throwing a small pebble into the water that was gradually calming, making beautiful ripples, and immediately attracting the people around them to join in.
In the end, those who were excited finally calmed down, because the future envisioned by the new strategy director was a bit sci-fi, but it was very reasonable, and the thought of devoting himself to such a great cause filled them with a sense of mission and a desire to dedicate themselves.
Of course, Schmidt also explained in detail that in the process of achieving these great goals, Google will also become a great company, and all those who work hard for this goal will be highly rewarded.
It is to realize their dreams and ambitions at the same time, and at the same time to gain fame and fortune, no one will refuse such a thing.
In the end, only those who were angry needed to be convinced, and this part of the group pointed the finger at the new director of strategy, because he suggested that Google would have to get involved in the hardware business in the future.
As soon as he made this statement, he was in the team of engineers in an instant. caused an uproar.
We are a good noble software company, why do we want to make hardware?
Page has not yet expressed his position on this issue, and it seems that they have not made up their minds.
And this question is for the reborn Feng Yiping. Is that still a problem?
After Apple's strategy of integrating software and hardware and unstoppable momentum to the throne of the world's largest and most profitable high-tech company, other companies have followed suit.
The arrogant Microsoft, finally lowered its profile, acquired Nokia, not to mention the mobile phone, and launched its own P, which can become a giant today, and the alliance they jointly built at the beginning, has a lot to do with it, right? This is enough to show that software and hardware work together, there will be a result that one plus one is greater than two. ”
Mayer wanted to refute, Feng Yiping shook his head at her with a smile, Please, beauty, I would be happy to start a friendly debate with you on other topics at other times and places, but for now, forget it.
He simply stood up and circled around the conference table, "In most cases, no matter how good the software is, it must be used as a carrier to achieve its efficacy,"
"We aspire to be a great company, but we can't expect those hardware manufacturers to have such lofty ideals, and we can't ask them to have the same vision and overall vision as we do.
It is very likely that we have good software, but we can't find the right equipment to use, or these devices are set at a high price that is difficult to promote by the hardware manufacturer, that is, the company that only designs the software is likely to be subject to the hardware manufacturer,"
"The future we look forward to is a world where many devices, such as mobile phones, glasses, watches, cars, etc., are connected to an online service, and if we want to realize this vision perfectly, we should control all aspects, from physical devices to software applications."
"The development of the times will break down a lot of industry barriers, so my opinion is that the future development trend of high-tech companies in the IT industry should be equipment plus services, to put it simply, hardware plus software,"
Page and the others had already stopped what they were doing, clasped their hands, and listened to Feng Yiping's speech, he leaned over to discuss a few words with Brin, "Feng's opinion is our opinion,"
"We have a clear plan for the future, and in this process, we can't slow down our progress because the hardware can't keep up.
Apple is a company that I admire and admire very much, and we should also get involved in the hardware industry in the future. ”
Schmidt immediately said, "I agree, but there are many ways to get involved in hardware manufacturing, and I think we should only do the design and find other factories to produce it on our behalf, which is the most economical." ”
Sure enough, there are no fuel-efficient lamps.
Brin smiled and asked Mayer, "Marisa, do you have any more opinions?"
"No, you know, my main direction in school is artificial intelligence, and I'm already involved in hardware," Mayer smiled, how could he still be a little angry?
Your sister, this woman, is terrifyingly flexible, no wonder after quitting Google, she rose to the top and became the CEO of Yahoo. (To be continued.) )
