Li Zhengyi said: "You just said that you know where there are talents in this area, which company is it?"

“apple！”

"Apples?"

"Yes. ”

Speaking of which, Li Zhengyi couldn't help but think of the Apple mobile phone hidden at the bottom of the box in his home in Qingyun Community, in this life, I don't know when Apple will launch the first Apple mobile phone.

"Are you familiar with Apple's technicians?" asked Mr. Lee.

"General. ”

"Can you win it over?"

"You're kidding. Ouyang Qingwan said with a smile, "People lead the development of iPods in Apple, and now they are doing well, and the general company doesn't look at it at all, we want to win over, but at present, there is no door." ”

"iPod?" Li Zhengyi asked rhetorically, "portable digital music player?"

"Yes. ”

"He's engaged in hardware development, huh?"

"Almost. ”

"Will you?"

"There are no resources. ”

Li Zheng felt that there was a drama when he heard it: "So, you also know about hardware, if you have resources, how far can you go? Can you make a mobile phone?"

Ouyang Qing was dazed by Li Zhengyi's leapfrog thinking, and only after a while did he look at the other party and ask, "What are you thinking in your head?"

Li Zhengyi sneered: "I'll ask." ”

Ouyang Qing said: "Making a mobile phone is not so simple, and there are too many problems involving all aspects. Of course, if you want to engage in copycat machine assembly, it is relatively simple, but that kind of business is not necessary compared to your current business. If it is independently designed and developed, then the scene will be big. ”

"What about the system?"

“PC？”

"Cell phone. Li Zhengyi poked Nokia on the table with his finger, "It is specially used for the operating system on the mobile phone, not the desktop operating system." ”

Ouyang Qingdao: "It is not very difficult to simply develop a mobile phone operating system, as long as someone has money, but the key question is, what do you develop it for? Who will use it......? Nokia, which is equipped with the Symbian system, was developed by a company led by Nokia and jointly funded by several mobile phone hardware manufacturers. An operating system is an ecological environment, from software developers to hardware providers, all have to complement each other, and developing a system separately, without matching hardware, is purely a waste of money. ”

Li Zhengyi was surprised: "You can cooperate with mobile phone manufacturers." ”

Ouyang Qing said: "It's as simple as you think, others have their own systems, why use yours?"

"I'm free. ”

"Free?"

"Well, it's open source. ”

"Then what is your purpose?" Ouyang Qing's head was even more dizzy, "It's purely open source and free, and you don't even have advertising revenue, what do you rely on to keep the company running?"

"This ......" Li Zhengyi scratched his head a little, he didn't quite understand, "I can't tell, or else, let's talk in a few days, I'll show you something then, if you can, maybe we can do something interesting, it's fun." ”

“……”

Ouyang Qing didn't snort, he found that Li Zhengyi was a little different today, but where was the difference, but he couldn't say it, he just felt weird.

Back at the company, Lee kept thinking about what had just happened.

About the phone and the system.

In particular, the smartphone market that will become hot in a few years, and the smartphone operating systems that are matched with it, such as Android and IOS.

It's a bit nonsense to make your own smartphone, one has no experience, two has no technology, three has no resources, and four has no connections, if you really want to plunge into it now, it will be a deep pit that buries people, and there will be no bones left.

It's okay to get a copycat machine company, and the profits in the early stage should be considerable, but now the energy is limited, and if you get another company, you will be tired to death.

Thinking of getting a R&D center is purely for the sake of existing enterprises.

It seems that the operating system can be tried, whether it is Android or IOS system, he knows the framework used, it may be difficult to develop a system from scratch, but as long as there is a basic framework, for a master like Ouyang Qing, development may not be difficult.

However, the system is developed, I'm afraid it can't be as open source as Android in the previous life, otherwise it's really like what Ouyang Qing said just now, open source can't even make advertising fees, it's a purely unprofitable business, and companies without some strength can't afford to play.

In fact, in the previous life, the company that operated Android open source was Brother Gu, and Brother Gu opened up Android, and the reason is actually very complicated.

First of all, Apple was too strong at that time, and it cooperated with the worst telecom operator in country M, which directly subverted the original telecom wireless market pattern, because the epoch-making functions and design of Apple's products were so strong that they directly made the large and small operators of country M directly kneel and lick.

If Brother Gu wants to subvert Apple's position, he must not take the usual path, otherwise he will not be able to play the other party, which is one of them.

Second, Brother Gu's own income completely depends on advertising, and there is no need to use Android to make money, Apple is a traditional enterprise, Brother Gu is an Internet company, and the biggest advantage of Internet companies compared with traditional enterprises is that the core of revenue is different, where Internet companies can be free, traditional enterprises may not dare to be free.

In a sense, Brother Gu's Android open source was forced by Apple, in order to protect his core search business and advertising revenue, otherwise once Apple dominates the world, then Brother Gu's business on the mobile terminal will be stuck in Apple's throat and completely at the mercy of Apple.

It can be said that without Brother Gu, the world's largest-stirring stick, Apple may be able to dominate the mobile phone market in the future.

And what Li Zhengyi is thinking about now is not thinking about how to compete with Apple, he doesn't have the strength and ability now, but now in 2002, if it is said that it is said to add blockage to Apple, it can still be done.

How to add blockage?

It's actually quite simple.

When Li Zhengyi was reborn, he inexplicably followed an Apple mobile phone, that thing is basically useless now, it is estimated that it has long been broken, even if it is not broken now, when the charger of Apple 8 appears again, it will be at least ten years, and by then, if the mobile phone can still be used, it is really unreasonable.

So his plan is to dismantle the Apple mobile phone, sort out one part by one, and then disperse it to the soon-to-be-established R&D center, so that Ouyang Qing can make specific design parameters and legends, and then use these data to apply for patents.

At the same time, the patents that can be applied for, as well as the pioneering and practical functions that exist in the Apple mobile phones that are well known in the previous life, as well as the IOS operating system, basically blocked the way out of the Apple mobile phone.
