Chapter 279: The Struggle for Standards
Puller overturned. [No pop-up novel network] admired Hu Yifei's eyes in his heart, and his eyes were really sharp. But he didn't dare to shield and fly. Putting away the document, he said with a smile: "Hu Yifei's plan is still more in line with our expectations for deepening cooperation, and with this ready-made plan as a reference, we can save a lot of effort in the future." I look at the specific details of the cooperation, and we can discuss the additions and deletions in accordance with this plan. ”
Hu Yifei nodded, "Since Mr. Taylor said so, then we will follow this document." As soon as possible, an equal plan will be drawn up for discussion! ”
"Okay, that's for the best!" Taylor hurried over today, just to catch Figo safe, as for how the two sides could work together on a deeper level. He didn't have a score in his heart, and now seeing Hu Yifei throwing out this plan now, it opened his mind and made him come up with a lot of ideas, Hu Yifei's plan mentioned much more things than Taylor thought of before.
At that moment, Taylor hurriedly said goodbye, returned to the hotel with Hu Yifei's plan, sorted it out, added some of his own ideas, and then gave it to the headquarters, waiting for the headquarters' reply. As long as the headquarters demarcates the bottom cong, he can let go of Figo to negotiate safely, don't look at him in a hurry to find Hu Yifei today, but whether this matter is successful or not, the initiative is not in Figo's safety, and in the end it depends on Apple's meaning.
After more than a week of back-and-forth, Figo Security suddenly made an announcement, announcing that it had formally reached an agreement with Apple, and the two sides would carry out in-depth cooperation in the formulation and implementation of smartphone security standards to promote smartphones into a new security mode.
Apple later issued a statement confirming the news and announcing that Apple's upcoming sixth-generation phones will be the first to adopt this new security standard, and there will be more surprising major feature changes at that time.
When the news broke, the industry was in an uproar. No one thought that Figo Security would really be able to fight big with small and big trees. Considering Apple's extraordinary influence on smartphones, it's not hard to imagine that Figo Security's desire to make the security model it advocates a new security standard in the industry isn't just empty talk.
At this time, I am most happy that several security companies that have signed agreements with Figo Security, especially Li'an, who bought the ready-made solutions provided by Figo Security, and took this opportunity to launch their own new generation of anti-virus products, called "Phantom Demon Kill", which is temporarily free for users to download and experience.
Li'an Fang played a slogan: the anti-virus product of the Golden Ball Revolution, the last battle against the virus Trojan!
This slogan, let the security of the real wind ao, do not know the truth of the masses, but also think that is the security technology, the ability to manufacture the world's unique security products, the image of the security "technology enterprise", for a while deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. On the day of the launch of Phantom Demon Slay, the number of downloads reached 200,000 copies, and the trend continues to rise.
At that time, several other companies that signed agreements with Figo Security finally understood this catty. The heart said that Li'an is really *** cunning, they must have bought the ready-made technical solutions of Figo Security, otherwise it would be such a short time. It's impossible to launch a full-fledged product.
At the same time, these people are also remorseful. I didn't think of that at the time. This can't be helped, who let them not have such a shrewd technical director as Lao **ao.
However, compared to the security of the enterprise in the enterprise. The benefits of Gangluo's business, the achievements of antivirus software, seem insignificant. According to reliable sources, in just two weeks, the company booked a service in Li'an. It reached more than one brew. Even if Figo Security's deployment plan is very convenient, this figure is enough for Li'an to be busy for three or five months, and it is estimated that their income will be nearly 100 million. If it weren't for Li'an's low prices and the implementation of a capitation fee model, this figure might have multiplied several times.
Watching Li Anfang recruit people frantically all over the country. Expand the business, several other companies envy, but also hate the root of the itchy teeth, Li Security is now one step first, step by step, they have not yet entered the market. The market has been completely destroyed by Li'an. Li'an uses this model to attract customers and expand the market, if you don't keep up with it, it will definitely be difficult to compete with Li'an. The profiteering industry is still a profiteering industry, but this profiteering has shrunk several times in an instant, which is really depressing, and these companies have to lower their profit expectations.
A week after the launch of Lei'an's Phantom Demon Kill. Some non-governmental anti-drug forums have successively given high praise to this product. And it is recommended for people to download and use. The Wolf's Den also has opened a sub-section for Phantom Demon Kill under its own anti-virus section.
At the same time, some posts criticizing Phantom Demon Killing have also begun to go viral, a new model, wanting to replace the old one, is tantamount to pulling teeth from the tiger's mouth, and the two sides will inevitably have a war of words.
Similarly, the cooperation between Apple and Figo Security on the Humble Listening Safety Standard has naturally been resisted.
Within a week of their cooperation, other smartphone giants such as BlackBerry, Google, Nokia, and Microsoft have also begun to join forces with some large security companies, such as Syman, and are also preparing to launch their own standards.
But no matter what kind of standard it is, as long as it is a standard, it will be made public in the future, once it is published. It is naturally clear who is superior and who is inferior. And. There is also a question of who can take the lead, if anyone can take the lead in laying out their own standards and launching mature products, as long as the market recognizes and accepts, then they can completely strangle the other party's standards in the cradle
These companies are now gambling that Figo Security will not be able to roll out its own smartphone security standards soon. Before, everyone was desperately grabbing shares and users, and no one realized that safety standards could also be mastered by mobile phone manufacturers. There is a huge business opportunity here, and once it becomes a standard, whoever enters the smartphone field in the future will have to meet this standard. The dominant party of the standard not only reaps the benefits. Standards can even be used to decide the life and death of some businesses.
Everyone understands the interests in this standard, but when Hu Yifei was negotiating, he took the initiative to give up and handed over the dominance of the standard to Apple.
For this, Hu Yifei has his own opinion, he knows very well that the standard is a dead thing if it is held in the hands of Figo Security, the entire smartphone market, including users, is in the hands of European and American companies and a small number of Japanese and Korean companies, Figo Security has no place in the field of smart phones, what do you use to persuade those companies to adopt their own standards?
But if it is led by Apple, the situation is completely different, even if the Figo security model cannot become the standard, but as long as Apple adopts this model, then Figo security is equivalent to tens of millions of users who indirectly own Apple mobile phones.
Moreover, Hu Yifei believes that the situation will not always be the same, and since Apple dares to propose to operate this model as a standard, it will naturally have the grasp of convincing other smartphone companies. Apple's ambition lies in wanting to dominate the global smartphone exhibition trend, and even dominate the future of mobile Internet.
Apple paid $10,000 to gain the dominance of the standard, and in compensation, they agreed to Figo's secure use of multi-desktop technology to provide value-added services on Apple's phones.
And this is what Hu Yifei values, although Apple has also made a lot of restrictions on this clause, but Hu Yifei still has a way to bypass it.
On the weekend, Figo Security organized employees to hold a football match in the sports center, and Hu Yifei put on his Figo jersey very stylishly. I wanted to have "exquisite" skills on my legs, but as soon as I got on the field, I lost my feet, and I had to lie down in the hospital to recuperate.
The next day, the boss came running, entered the door and skimmed a newspaper to Hu Yifei, "Look, something is wrong!" ”
"What's the big deal?" Hu Yifei wondered. I got up and spread out the newspaper, and when I looked at it, I was stunned, and the headline on the front page of the news on it was: The head of the security company was accidentally injured. Or influence Apple's security standards strategy!
Turning back further, there are several consecutive editions of special reports and analysis, many bricks and beasts that Hu Yifei has never heard of jumped out one after another, and with a tone of friendship with Hu Yifei who grew up wearing open crotch pants, analyzing Hu Yifei's injury, for the world's smart phones, and even the mobile Internet exhibition. Effect.
Hu Yifei didn't come back to his senses for a long time, looking at his feet and neck, which had not yet become swollen, but no longer hurt much, how could he not figure out when his feet and necks would be able to affect the development of the world and the progress of mankind. Damn, this is too fucking bullshit!
The boss sat aside and opened the fruit pocket. took out a banana and recorded the skin, and smiled, "We made a big deal this time, and we wanted to use Google and Microsoft to hype up the new anti-virus model, but we ended up recruiting Apple, and this time we have become a celebrity." This celebrity's affairs, it's all big things, there are no small things, you have to pay attention to it in the future, don't be photographed by the paparazzi for any scandals! ”
"I'm a big-headed ghost!"
Hu Yifei scolded, depressed, and said in his heart that he didn't want to hype it up like this. If you don't toss some movement, how can you attract the attention of giants! Last time there was a virus frenzy, it was ** luck, this time the wind and waves are calm, if you want to make a move, then you can only go to make waves yourself.
"Be careful yourself, anyway." The boss smiled, "The newspaper exaggerated the matter of your feet, I guess someone will come to lay a wreath for you in a while!" ”
