August 3, 2003, 2 a.m. in Yanjing.

Li Feiteng took a car out of the capital airport, and the Xiaolong P1 mobile phone he was holding did not stop dialing international calls.

On the other end of the phone, Paige, one of Google's two founders, is also the current chief technology officer of Google.

"Andy Rubin, Paige, do you know him?"

"Yes, Lee, when I was speaking at Stanford last year, Brin and I became very good friends with him. ”

"So do you know what he's been up to lately?"

"Last year Andy Rubin left Danger, which he founded, to develop a digital camera, but this year he emailed me and it seemed like he was working on a project for a next-generation smartphone platform. ”

When Li Feiteng heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

Andy Rubin is the founder of Android.

In the previous life, Android was a project set up by the team led by Andy Rubin, which was favored and invested by the two founders of Google, Page and Brin, and then the Android system finally surpassed the Symbian system and became the first in the world.

However, the Android system is dominated by mobile advertising revenue, and in terms of profitability, it is far inferior to Apple's iOS system in the previous life.

However, what Li Feiteng needs to do now is not only to create an Android project, but also to launch a new smartphone system platform, a closed-source system for iOS system, to launch high-end mobile phones, to provide a safer and more high-end mobile phone system platform.

In short, Android in the previous life occupied nearly 78.1% of the global mobile phone system market, and Li Feiteng. To occupy more than 90% of the market. Put the apples. There are other mobile phone system platforms, all down!

This is not impossible, because the current smartphone system has not really attracted the attention of global mobile phone manufacturers and other IT giants.

Even for Android, it's just a project right now.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Contact Andy Rubin and we'll Google what's next." I wanted Andy Rubin to come to China to meet me in person and tell him that I was very interested in the project he was working on. ”

Page listened on the phone, and he quickly nodded in agreement.

……

Three days later, a bespectacled foreigner wearing an Apple computer took a plane from the Cayman Islands to the capital of China.

This foreigner. It's the legendary Andy Rubin.

Andy Rubin is coming to Asia for the first time, and it is the first time for him to come to Huaxia Yenching.

Google's CTO sued him. Mr. Lee, the godfather of the global Internet, is interested in his smartphone platform project and wants to meet and meet in person.

This shocked Andy Rubin and was very excited.

Although Andy Rubin had been at Microsoft and had started a business before, he had not been a supporter of the project that developed several cameras after leaving Dange.

At the beginning of this year, he returned to the software development project he was familiar with, to develop a free and open source operating system for all software, open, Linux, mainly for mobile phones.

The current team has 16 people, and he has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in it, but has not yet established a company.

Because the studio and the company are completely different, Andy Rubin doesn't know how to run it yet, he needs to find a partner, and get the investment, otherwise this project will be difficult to develop in the long run.

Who knew that such a big surprise actually befell him.

Andy Rubin came out of the airport, and there were two bodyguards from Feiteng Security, holding a tall sign with the English name AndyRubin, and he hurriedly walked over.

"Hello, I'm AndyRubin. ”

"AndyRubin, we are the bodyguards sent by Mr. kingli to greet you, welcome you to Yanjing, please get in the car. ”

"Thank you. ”

This is a business Mercedes-Benz car, Andy Rubin got in the car, he walked all the way at high speed, and what he saw outside the car window were poor and low farmhouses in the suburbs of Yanjing, until he reached the Hongluo Lake range, and looked at it from a distance, as if he saw the buildings of some very wealthy areas in the West.

The road and the surroundings are just too nice.

Along the way, after passing through several barricades and entering the real inner area of Hongluo Lake, Andy Rubin was completely stunned, this is a rich man's paradise.

The spacious surface car park, with many expensive cars parked on it, and the tarmac for three private jets, including the villa area that is almost there, is already one of the most splendid buildings in the middle that looks like a European castle.

Upon entering the town, Andy Rubin couldn't help but ask, "I'm sorry, I want to know what this place is?"

"Mr. Andy, this is Mr. Kingli's private town, and since you came in, the road like a race car, including all the surrounding buildings, all the equipment and facilities, and the people here, are all the personal property and personal employees of our husband. ”

"It's shocking......"

The car finally stopped, and after Andy Rubin got out of the car, he looked at this rich and noble man's combination of Chinese and Western style villa towns, and his mood was particularly happy.

In front of him is the central fountain, through the water curtain of the fountain, Andy Rubin seems to see the world-famous Mr. Kingli, who is pulling a little girl over.

"Hi Mr. Andy!"

"King Lee, I am honored to be in your house, lovely girl, is it your daughter?"

"Yes, Andy, let's go in for coffee!"

"Oh, okay, but I'd rather visit and see more of it. ”

"No problem, let's go in and have a look, I don't know if you know anything about classical culture, my place is more like a museum. ”

"Oh, really?"

The two chatted and entered the large villa. Down the hallway. What you see is a picture of many celebrities taking a group photo.

Andy Rubin was dazzled. Many people vaguely recognized the photos he saw as some heads of state, or rich celebrities and the like.

Of course, he also saw some celebrities in the tech world, such as Page and Brin, and Bill Gates.

"Lee, I used to be an employee at Microsoft. also had a photo with Bill Gates. ”

"Oh, I heard Paige say, by the way, I think if we can work together successfully this time, the photo of you and me will hang here in the future and be seen by my guests. ”

"Oh, really?"

"Of course, I trust your ...... Wisdom. Li Feiteng said, pointing to his head. Gestured.

Walking into the living room together, a foreigner in a suit. I made two cups of cat poop coffee and put them on the coffee table.

When Andy saw the foreigner, he was surprised and asked, "Fritz, are you Fritz?"

"yes, you know me. The foreigner in the suit smiled at Andy.

Andy asked in surprise, "Oh, Fritz, what are you kidding, how could I not know you, you won the WBC Barista Competition last year, oh God, how are you here, are you an employee of Mr. kingli?"

Li Feiteng shook his head and smiled, stretched out his hand to invite Fritz to sit down, he explained: "Mr. Fritz, he has been coming to my house for a month, he is here to teach us the business and family coffee technology, he is the family teacher I hired, and he is also the business instructor. ”

"Coffee Wings Coffee Restaurant is a company that our group cooperates with a catering company in Xiangjiang, and Fritz comes to help us do some help and promote the coffee brand. ”

Andy understood, and this time he regained his composure.

Fritz stood up and smiled, "Lee, I'll go ahead and teach." ”

"Okay, there you go. ”

Li Feiteng smiled, waited for Fritz to leave, pointed to the coffee on the coffee table, and said, "Precious cat poop coffee, you can taste it." ”

"Thank you, I really appreciate your hospitality to me. ”

"We are guests from afar, and we are very enthusiastic about treating distant guests. ”

Tasting the cat poop coffee of the top barista, Li Feiteng continued to ask: "Andy, I heard Page say that you are now developing the next-generation platform of smartphones, is it based on the Linux platform?"

Andy hurriedly said: "Yes, we want to develop a better platform than Symbian and other systems, with more freedom." ”

Li Feiteng nodded and said: "I am very interested in this project, if you open a number, I will not bargain." ”

Andy's eyes widened in shock.

It's really rich!

He had nothing more to say.

"Lee, let me think about it, okay?"

"Of course you can, in fact, I invite you to come, there are no requirements for funds or positions, but I really hope that you and your team can come to work in Huaxia, you know that Google's headquarters is here, and I believe that Asia will be more prosperous in the future." ”

Andy listened, but before he could speak, Li Feiteng continued: "Of course, this is my personal request, because I am also a person with a background in research, such as the XP window system, you should know my deeds with Microsoft back then." ”

Andy hurriedly said: "Of course, I know too well, everyone knows about this matter, Li, you are a god, that is, the god of this industry...... Actually, I don't think it matters if you're in the Cayman Islands, or if you're working in Silicon Valley, or if you're working in Asia...... If you could give my team a very, very tempting price, I'm sure very few would say no. ”

Li Feiteng thought for a while and said: "First of all, your team, in terms of treatment, if you can come to Huaxia, I can guarantee that accommodation, medical care, etc., are all in accordance with the highest employees, all kinds of welfare guarantees, you also know, in Shenchuan, we Google has more than 100 excellent engineers from all over the world." ”

"Secondly, if you are willing to come to Huaxia, you get the position of vice president of this project, not only have dividends, but also have a salary compensation that is 20% higher than that of magnesium country, and we can arrange guaranteed employment, and so on. (To be continued......)
