Chapter 571: Crack Yourself Yourself
In the past few days since the Gphone went on sale, the flagship stores of Guanghui mobile phones were full, and there were long queues waiting to pay every day.
Consumers' experience of using Gphone at home and abroad is also flooded with the Internet.
One of the most criticized by Celestial Empire consumers is that the domestic version of Gphone does not support IFI.
Jiang Hui had already predicted this problem when it was developed, after all, there is no IFI for smartphones, and there is only a 2G network in the Celestial Empire, although there is an API, but there is no way to fully experience the various coolness of Gphone.
Although at the beginning, everyone felt that they were already very satisfied with these features, speed or anything was not so important.
As the world's first e-mail was sent to his colleagues in October 1969 by computer scientist Professor Leonard K., "I tried to get in touch with a computer at the University of California and another at the Stanford Research Center near San Francisco. All we do is log in from one computer to another. At that time, the way to log in was to type L-O-G. So we typed L and asked, 'Did you get L?' and they replied, 'Got it.' Then type O, then G. Before receiving an acknowledgement from the other party that G was received, the system went down."
Even so, Professor Leonard K. was very excited! If it were put to this point, this system and the speed of the Internet would definitely be sprayed to death.
So after a few days of use, Celestial Empire consumers have felt the various functions of Gphone, but they can't give full play to their power due to the slow speed of the network, so it's no wonder that so many consumers complain.
"Mr. Jiang, according to the investigation and collection of the marketing department, at present, Tianchao consumers have the greatest opinions on Gphone, and these opinions are mainly focused on the unequal use of IFI and the slow network speed," Dai Fuqian specially came to Jiang Hui's office to report on the situation of Guanghui mobile phone in the past few days.
From the beginning of the sale of Gphone, the employees of the marketing department of Guanghui Mobile began to pay full attention to the evaluation of Gphone in Guanghui Weibo, School Intranet, Du Niang Tieba and other places, so as to respond as soon as possible.
Theoretically, the development of Gphone always considers the application of API standards in the Celestial Empire, and the only difference with iFi is that the API is stronger than iFi in terms of authentication and confidentiality. Although iFi is not compatible with APIs, smartphones or other terminal products that apply API standards can automatically switch and receive IFI signals, even when they are taken abroad.
As long as chip manufacturers such as Intel are willing to publish API software patches for their chips on the Internet or directly embed the driver into the operating system for installation, wireless products using the iFi standard can apply the wireless network of the API standard. Although this matter is a breeze for chip manufacturers such as Intel Lamp and Qualcomm. But the key question is whether Intel is willing, not whether it can or not!
Since chip manufacturers do not support API standards, although Gphone has developed API products for China, it is actually unusable.
This is equivalent to domestic consumers can only use the snail-like 2G network.
This is one of the reasons why Jiang Hui plans to sell most of his Gphones abroad first.
"I have an idea if we can also let domestic consumers use the IFI version of Gphone without violating the relevant regulations," Jiang Hui said.
Although Jiang Hui hopes that the standards set by the Celestial Empire itself can become the world standard, the weak performance of the Celestial Empire in the chip industry is destined to make this idea impossible to realize in the next ten years.
Rather than this, it is better to let consumers use fast wireless networks as early as possible, which can also stimulate the rapid development of the mobile Internet industry.
In this process of rapid development, the Guanghui Group will inevitably get the biggest piece of the cake, and then invest the money earned into the development of core components such as chips, memory, motherboards, etc., I believe that in ten years later, it can change the weak chicken performance of the Celestial Empire in the core components of mobile phones, which can be regarded as an indirect contribution to the micro-country.
According to the original history, even ten years later, 95% of the chips in the Celestial Empire were imported.
It is basically a well-known fact that the Celestial Empire imports a large amount of oil every year, and the Celestial Empire's dependence on imported oil has also continued to rise! Ensuring energy security has long been elevated to the level of national strategy. Chinese people pay a lot of attention to oil prices, whether it is domestic or foreign policy news quickly become known! Most people may feel that this aspect is closely related to their lives, but many people also ignore another thing, that is, chips.
According to the original history, ten years later, the Celestial Empire will spend more than 1 trillion yuan on importing chips every year, and its dependence on imported chips is far greater than that of imported oil!
Because at that time, 82% of the world's laptops and 70% of mobile phones were produced in the Celestial Empire.
Once reborn, the development of Guanghui Group to the present, money itself no longer has much meaning for Jiang Hui. A few hundred million more, a few hundred million less, will not have any impact on Jiang Hui's quality of life.
However, Jiang Hui hopes that he can do something meaningful. On the one hand, it is one thing to let the Internet industry, mobile phone industry, and automobile industry of the Celestial Empire develop and grow, and it is more important to hope that the industrial chain of these industries can be truly strong. And not just a castle on the beach, which was pushed down by someone else.
As the "crown jewel" of high-end manufacturing, chips are integrated circuits, which are one of the important symbols to measure a country's comprehensive strength and the core of the information industry.
Mobile phones, computers, home appliances, automobiles, high-speed rail, industrial control and other electronic products and systems are inseparable from chips. Without the support of the chip industry, the information society will lose its foundation. Jiang Hui's Glorious Group is equivalent to handing over the core lifeline to others, which Jiang Hui will never allow to exist.
"Mr. Jiang, the policy stipulates that mobile phones sold in China are not allowed to apply IFI, there is no way to circumvent it~Mr. Jiang~Mr. Jiang", Dai Fuqian's voice interrupted Jiang Hui's contemplation.
"Ah, what did you say?".
"I said that there are regulations in the policy, and there is no way to circumvent it."
"How could there be no way around it?".
"How to circumvent it?".
"Make a cracked version of the system, let the user flash the machine by himself".
Flashing, a technical term for mobile phones, refers to changing or replacing some languages, pictures, ringtones, software or operating systems that originally existed in the mobile phone through certain methods.
Generally speaking, flashing is to reinstall the system for the mobile phone. Flashing can make the functionality of the phone more complete, and it can restore the phone to its original state.
"Huh?
"It's completely okay, let's make a cracked version and put it on the Internet, so that everyone can download it by themselves."
"Well, it seems to be possible."
"It must be feasible, but we have to launch a water army to let the majority of netizens know that there is such a way to make their Gphone use IFI."
"No problem, I'll arrange it right away".
