"Speaking of which, the most profitable thing this time is the school, although it is said that it is open source to universities and scientific research institutions across the country, but the code is placed in the Lu Daxin Academy, not to mention whether it can attract many brother units to ask for code, just the attention attracted by this news is estimated to make our President Zhu wake up with a smile from sleep, right?"

Saying that, Liu Shumeng turned his head to look at Atletico Madrid, "The school is profitable and famous now, but the two of you still sent it to the door by yourself, it is simply a gift package sent to the door, or is it the kind of gift package that has been opened and is endless!"

didn't wait for Atletico to answer, but Li Jiaming shook his head with a smile and said: "Third child, it seems that you don't have much talent in business, so you can honestly work with me as a wage earner!"

"Huh?"

Seeing Liu Shumeng's puzzled and inquiring gaze, Atletico Madrid spoke: "We have decided to completely abandon the x86 product line. ”

First nodded habitually, and then Liu Shumeng raised his head suddenly, surprised: "Ah? What does it mean to give up x86? Although Microsoft has been involved in that prism door, Windows and PC have not suffered any devastating blows, why are you going to quit, and your PC online games are not doing? Are you going to make money with these?"

As he spoke, he reached out and pointed to the glasses on his nose and the white bracelet on his right wrist, referring to the wearable device that the bees were pushing with all their might.

Although Bee has long launched smart glasses and bracelets and ankle bracelets, in fact, only the lite bracelet with biometric recognition and hardware unlocking functions has achieved a certain degree of success. Because it is compatible with Bee OS and then BMA eight-horse version of Android, it is widely used, but the price is as low as 100 yuan, so the sales are rising, and it is the first hardware product under Bee to exceed the 5 million mark in cumulative sales.

But even so, the lite bracelet didn't make much money for the bees, after all, the price was too low and the profits were meager, of course, compared with the bee glasses that actually lost money, it was at least profitable, so it should be said that it was still successful, but the profit didn't outperform the GDP basically didn't make much sense. In fact, when bee evaluates the bracelet project internally, what is more important is that because of the hot sales of the 100-yuan bracelet, it has played a role in educating users and training the market, and the proportion of lite users buying other smart wearable devices is quite high.

If it hadn't been for the timely launch of a cheap lite version based on user feedback, the smart wearable project might have been stopped by the Bee Board of Directors. Although Atletico still controls the lion's share of the Bee Group, because each subsidiary has its own board of directors and its own interests, it will be a bit ugly to support it openly and boycott it privately.

Of course, the situation is different now, with the launch of Google's glass project, especially the fire of the Fit smart pedometer, the concept of wearable devices has become popular abroad, and domestic technology companies and venture capitalists are also trying to enter this field, and bees, as a pioneer, must increase investment to open up the gap with other competitors.

At this moment, Li Jiaming and Liu Shumeng are wearing glasses and bracelets and ankle rings are bees about to release the second generation of products, although the second generation of glasses has been unveiled on MWC2013 before, but because of the processor chip, it was not immediately listed, and it looks like it will be delayed until the second half of the year.

Rubbing his fingers against the rubber bracelet on his right wrist, Liu Shumeng said: "If you want to say that this training system is still effective, standing there, the system can identify the position of my wrists and ankles, and automatically analyze the target, give the best trajectory and recommended posture, but well, I still prefer the teaching of real sparring partners How to break?"

Seeing the cheap smile on the face of his old classmate, Li Jiaming lowered his voice knowingly and said: "It's best to be a female ball boy with white breasts and thighs, behind you, with one-on-one personal guidance with her chest against her back and her hands around her waist, right?"

"Of course you don't want to?"

Atletico nodded: "Your request is not technically difficult to achieve, you only need to obtain your posture data in real time through wifi or Bluetooth." ”

Li Jiaming and Liu Shumeng glanced at each other, and then asked in unison, "Do you still plan to develop a special version for coaching?"

Shaking his head slightly, Ma Jing said: "It's a coach version of the robot, I think the personal trainer function is quite good, you can consider putting it on Xiaodi." ”

Liu Shumeng hurriedly shook his head, "Forget it, do you think everyone is the same as you? Fake is always fake, it feels different, if you do this, the kind of love that the opposite sex personally guides will be gone, how boring!"

Li Jiaming also nodded again and again, but he stopped the topic: "Let's not talk about Atletico Madrid's 'safety first, prevention first', let's talk about this year's "Sword and Fairy World"!"

Liu Shumeng peeked at the three girls next to him who were exchanging parenting experience, then nodded imperceptibly, and said: "Just now, I was Boss Ma, you gave me a jump and said, it's not enough to give up the x86 product line, or give up completely, I thought that "Sword and Fairy World" was also going to be abandoned!"

"How is that possible? The company has invested 200 million yuan in this project, how can it give up?"

"Cut!" Liu Shumeng's face was full of disdain: "You didn't inject water into the R&D costs, but what is the matter with counting the money to buy the copyright of the double sword? Who doesn't know that the games you make with the vee engine are all made out of the same mold, and the picture can't see the difference at all?"

Because of the bragging of not paying taxes, the propaganda slogans in the online game circle are getting louder and louder, and I don't know when "spending more than 100 million yuan on research and development" has become the standard configuration of the so-called "boutique masterpiece", but this money looks like a lot, and it is only less than 20 million dollars when converted into dollars.

Which of the AAA-level stand-alone masterpieces abroad has a research and development cost of less than 50 million US dollars? There is also a gold-swallowing monster like GTA5 that a team of 1,000 people spent five years burning more than 200 million US dollars.

The reason why it can afford such a huge R&D cost is, in the final analysis, the vast market of foreign stand-alone games, especially console games, is supported, and genuine game developers with a price of more than 50 US dollars can get a share of about 20 dollars, so as long as the sales volume reaches more than 2.5 million, they can keep the capital, plus peripheral licensing and the like, they can make money. However, with the continuous upgrading of the game screen, the cost of research and development is getting higher and higher, resulting in developers becoming more and more reluctant to invest heavily in the development of original innovative projects, and the result is that the sequels of Need for Speed 17, Call of Duty 10, and Mario XX continue to appear, giving players new "New Year's goods" every year.

In the Chinese world, the price of stand-alone games is basically 50 yuan digital version, even if there are millions of sales, the R & D manufacturers can barely get 50 million revenue. And this is a "dream" level, first of all, millions of sales are not common, in fact, the price has to be shared with agents, and the final income must be significantly less than this number. In addition, the industry elites have gone to engage in online games, so it is no wonder that domestic stand-alone machines are always petty and can only rely on feelings to sell pitiful.

And to a certain extent, bees are involved in the field of stand-alone games, which is actually "harming" the domestic stand-alone industry. Because Bee has its own VEE engine, its technical strength is not weaker than that of international manufacturers, but the cost of research and development is much lower, and the charging model of Bee stand-alone machine is more like an online game, the game itself is free, and DLC charges are optional.

It is also in this context that Bee Games waved money and bought the two famous stand-alone game brands of Xianjian and Xuanyuan Sword from Daewoo. To be exact, they bought a part, Bee contributed money and technology, Daewoo produced brand IP, and the two sides established a game company called "Oriental Wonderland" in Ludao, which is responsible for developing stand-alone and online game sequels of these two well-known game brands.

Speaking of Daewoo, it is also pitiful, although they know that their stand-alone games have a high brand awareness and should be very valuable, but they themselves do not have the ability to realize this value. Although the single-player games that have been developed successively have made money, they are nothing in the face of the ever-increasing development costs; they have followed the trend and made online games, but they have neither applauded nor acclaimed the popularity of the previous games, and finally they have closed down, but they have smashed their signboards; and the reality that the domestic peripheral product market is occupied by all kinds of piracy and infringement also makes it impossible for them to gain much profit from it. Although the three adapted TV series have become popular on the screen one after another, it can be regarded as making money, but it is the production company and the TV station that make money, and they only make some licensing fees.

It's no wonder that bees can negotiate cooperation with it,Oriental Wonderland quickly released more than ten high-quality stand-alone games after its establishment,But this is the bee used to change the engine to beautify the "bee version" to modify it,Reissued again,Although it is an old game that has not sold well,But it is also for the company to create a relatively stable cash flow income Bee's anti-piracy technology makes stand-alone game manufacturers all over the world envious,It's a pity that it is not sold。

In fact, the resources of the entire new company are actually invested in the new online game project of "Sword and Fairy World", fortunately, there is the support of the elite soldiers of Bee Games, and many development resources can be reused, so the progress of the project is quite fast, this game has begun a limited internal test, and Liu Shumeng also got the activation code from Atletico Madrid and has been playing it for a long time.

was complained by him about the "skin-changing" method, and Atletico also smiled helplessly: "If you don't reuse art and sound resources, don't want the current R&D speed, and the development cost will have to be doubled several times, and you will have to have opinions again." ”

"Don't don't, change the skin, change the skin, anyway, there is nothing new under the sun, we are all used to it!" Liu Shumeng hurriedly waved his hand in denial, and then asked: "Then why do you still say that you gave up the x86 product line before?"

"How is this possible? We are giving up the x86 version of the bee system, and the software and hardware business based on it. Of course, it is not to lose it directly, but there is no place for them in the medium and long-term planning, and it will take two or three years to gradually give up this piece, which is the time for the update and maintenance of the main software and hardware, and the warranty and guarantee, and it will be completely ignored after the time. ”

"So, the so-called open source to the education system and the joint development of the next generation of x86 bees are actually all tricks?

Atletico shook his head and said: "It's different, why didn't Microsoft take out the source code for favors after giving up XP? This is a win-win cooperation between the two parties, and the heron, the country, and the bees have not suffered." ”

"And who's going to lose?"

"Of course it's our boss Ma!" Li Jiaming suddenly put on a lewd smile like a traitor: "Our Ma Dong cares about the country, and takes the initiative to hand over the domestic operating system painstakingly developed by Bee himself to the state, and does not need a dime subsidy from the state, which is definitely a model of loyalty and patriotism!"

"Li Jiaming, you don't watch too many anti-Japanese thunder dramas, your brain is broken, and you talk to people!" A slightly sharp female voice with hidden anger suddenly came from next to Li Jiaming, it turned out that Tong Li looked up by chance and saw Li Jiaming's funny scene, and hurriedly stopped it.

Of course, this is also their old classmates and no strangers present, otherwise, for the sake of her husband's face, Tong Li will naturally not have a seizure on the spot, but will endure going home, and then whether it is a washboard or a keyboard, or a motherboard or even a mobile phone screen, she will do it at will.

"Actually, I didn't suffer much, if I really want to say that I suffered, in fact, it was those domestic Linux operating system development teams. Although the total number of software bee x86 is not as good as linux, and it is not as good as windows, but it still exceeds linux in terms of Chinese software, not to mention that the software between several branches of linux is actually incompatible. ”

"In this way, with the ready-made bee system, it will be much more difficult for them to apply for project funding!" Liu Shumeng also reacted, but he immediately asked: "But no matter how you look at it, it looks like you bees harm others and yourself, don't tell me that your purpose is to save money for the country?" I know you are not so patriotic, you have been doing it for several years to donate a month's living expenses when you go to school and donate a month's average salary after graduation......

"You're talking nonsense, I've never donated money like this!" Atletico suddenly "scolded", but no matter how you look at it, there is a feeling of inwardness.

"You really haven't donated like this, you donated 106.5%, with a management fee of 6.5, everyone understands this!"

Liu Shumeng's words caused a burst of laughter, since 08 to the present, Atletico Madrid has always maintained this donation habit, of course, when dealing with those so-called charitable organizations that come to collect donations. In fact, the two of them have spent more than 100 million yuan on charitable donations in recent years, but most of them have been donated to their alma mater, and it will continue if nothing else.

The reason is also very simple, the continued donation will make the two schools pay attention to spending the money in a tangible way, otherwise the money for next year will be nothing. For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piaotian.net
