Chapter 1009: Android

At the time of the rise of the Internet, many media critics referred to the Internet as a money-burning market.

The Internet is also called the existence of a bottomless pit.

Because at that time, the Internet had not yet begun to make profits, but the investment was tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.

Even, even after investing hundreds of millions of dollars, in addition to the traffic, it is still impossible to make a profit.

However, compared to the Internet.

The hardware market is the real big money burner.

Ordinary enterprises, even if they have ideas, but let them make hardware, it is estimated that they have to think deeply before thinking.

Whether it's a computer, a mobile phone, or some other electronic gadgets.

From R&D, to processing, from processing to sales.

Without hundreds of millions of funds, you can't play at all.

Today's smart machines have witnessed what it means to be burned to death.

Except for the Meizu generation, all other companies that have entered the field of smart phones, before the money has begun to make money, hundreds of millions of funds have disappeared. What made them even more headache was that hundreds of millions of dollars were smashed, but they didn't even smash it out.

What to do?

Do you keep throwing money at it, or do you quit?

That's a problem.

Of course, this is also a situation for domestic electronics companies.

Under the influence of Zhang Ning, most enterprises were encouraged to enter the smart phone market.

However, the Meizu generation is too powerful, and they can't open a hole at all.

For this reason, representatives of major domestic enterprises once again found Zhang Ning.

"Mr. Zhang, you say, do we want to continue or quit?"

Yang Yuanqing, led by Lenovo, was the first to ask Zhang Ning.

"Continue, of course."

Zhang Ning replied directly.

For the current status of smart phones, Zhang Ning knows everything clearly.

Of course, he would also like to see such a situation.

Burn money, then keep burning.

If the original potential of these enterprises is not burned out, how can they be completely finished.

If the cash flow of these companies is not exhausted, how can smartphones bring changes to the entire hardware market?

A small smart phone has already made them burn money constantly.

I really don't know how much money they have to burn after the real smartphone is exposed.

Will it burn all the funds they have accumulated over the decades?

Like, Nokia.

Because of a smart phone, after the money burned out, a mobile phone king who dominated the world passed away.

However, seeing Yang Yuanqing and the others coming, Zhang Ning also frowned.

In order to play their own brand, in order to occupy a certain position in the future smart phone market, domestic enterprises have also begun to burn money on a large scale. Although, the scale of domestic cash burning cannot be compared with that of global electronics giants. But with their strength, there are some things that can't stand such a constant burning of money.

"Looks like we're going to have to figure out something for them."

Zhang Ning wants the international electronics giants to finish, and he doesn't want to see domestic electronics companies follow suit.

Although domestic companies like Lenovo may still be able to hold on.

However, most of the domestic electronic enterprises are very weak.

If the money is burned this time, if it doesn't get up, it is very likely that they will be eliminated from the market.

"Mr. Zhang, we can't stand it if we continue."

Yang Yuanqing was a little anxious.

Even though Lenovo is a domestic IT electronics giant, it always burns money and is not profitable, which is also a headache.

Moreover, this burns money, and it will be gone in a few minutes.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, you also suggested that we enter in the first place."

said the head of one of the electronics companies.

"So, are you blaming me for telling you to enter the smartphone market?"

Zhang Ning glanced at the man and said.

"Mr. Zhang, don't get me wrong, we don't blame you. It's just that now we really have no choice, so we're here to find you together. ”

The person in charge of the electronics company saw that Zhang Ning was a little angry, and quickly explained.

"Yes, Mr. Zhang, the Meizu generation was invented by you, and the smartphone market was also established by your penguin company. You certainly have a longer vision than we do, and I wonder what advice you have for the current situation? ”

Duan Yongping, the founder of BBK, explained.

"I want to think about it."

Zhang Ning nodded.

Duan Yongping was right.

These people can be regarded as pulling themselves into the field of smart phones.

Although, they themselves want to get in.

However, if they are finished, it will obviously be even more disadvantageous for Penguin.

Of course, from the bottom of his heart, Zhang Ning has always wanted to support these domestic electronics companies.

Since these electronic companies have encountered difficulties, it is natural that Zhang Ning will be the first to stand up.

"Guys, it's not like there's no way."

After a while, Zhang Ning came up with an idea.

"I know that Mr. Zhang has a long-term vision, what can I do?"

"Let's put it this way. In fact, one of the biggest problems that everyone is facing now is not a brand problem, nor is it a technical problem. What really restricts everyone is that there is no mainstream operating system in the market. In other words, everyone is still fighting on their own. You do yours, he does his. The same goes for smartphone operating systems, everyone's operating systems are completely different. On the one hand, some popular applications are difficult to update. On the other hand, it is also difficult to promote the respective smartphones. ”

"It's like the operating system of a PC computer, if you don't have a more mainstream operating system. Then, it is estimated that it will be difficult for PC computers to be quickly promoted to the world. I have to say, on the other hand. The monopoly of Microsoft Windows has indeed made a great contribution to promoting the popularization of computers. I think it's the same with smartphones. Everyone is fighting on their own, and maybe some of the more powerful technologies can develop a good operating system. However, some technologies are relatively limited, and maybe, everyone's system is not so comprehensive. If there is a relatively stable system at this time, everyone's smartphones use the same system. I believe that users will definitely accept everyone's products. ”

Zhang Ning's suggestion quickly made everyone's eyes shine.

At the same time, in my heart, I admired Zhang Ning again.

Youkai are youkai.

The problem that they can't explain when they break their heads, but here in Zhang Ning, it's a matter of one or two sentences.

For this alone, they may not be able to catch up in their lifetime.

"Mr. Zhang, I understand, you mean that we can jointly use the same system?"

Yang Yuanqing said.

"Yes."

Zhang Ning confirmed.

"There are many benefits to using the same system, on the one hand, it saves everyone money on R&D. In the future, we don't need to launch our own operating system while launching smart phones, which costs too much money and energy. ”

"Indeed."

Everyone nodded.

The benefits of this are clear.

Lenovo is good to say, to have technology, to have technology, to have funds.

However, some other small and medium-sized electronics companies really want to cry without tears.

It's good to say that there is technology.

Some of them don't have the operating system technology, so they have to spend a lot of money to cooperate with other companies.

"On the other hand, everyone uses the same operating system, and they no longer need to think about other apps. Because, these companies will take the initiative to cooperate with everyone. Like, a lot of companies are now taking the initiative to work with us in penguins. In this way, it saves the cost of developing app software. ”

Hearing this, everyone nodded even more.

Previously, most of the enterprises, just in the mall app application, have burned miserably.

"There is another aspect, which is also said before, using the same operating system is also more conducive to the popularization of everyone's products. It will not be like now, even if you have used the Meizu generation, and then use other brands of smart phones, you may not necessarily use it. Because, everyone's operating system is different, and the whole operation is also very different. If everyone's system is the same, as long as one person buys a smartphone, then he can teach everyone to use another brand of smartphone. ”

"So, I suggest that we discuss it again in private and develop an operating system together. Or, co-establish a smartphone operating system company. This company only makes smart phone operating systems, not smart phones. The jointly developed operating system can be used for oneself or licensed to cooperative enterprises. Of course, if it's your competitors, you can also block them and not give them use. ”

"Great, I agree with this approach."

Duan Yongping was the first to stand up and agree.

"I agree with that."

The person in charge of Gionee also said.

"It's okay on my side."

Lenovo's Yang Yuanqing also nodded in agreement.

"Well, the problem is solved, and everyone can make smart phones with peace of mind in the future. Of course, there may be some problems later. But, I want to say. As long as everyone works together, don't give up, don't back down. Then, we have the capital and strength to compete with global electronics companies. ”

The problem was successfully solved, and the heads of major enterprises left Penguin one after another.

It's just that a few days later, just when Zhang Ning was looking forward to these companies working together to develop an operating system, these domestic electronics companies suddenly fell out without knowing why.

"What's the situation?"

Zhang Ning was dumbfounded and made a phone call to Yang Yuanqing.

"Yuanqing, what's the situation on your side, didn't you say okay?"

"Mr. Zhang, it's hard to say."

Yang Yuanqing was also very depressed.

"How can it be so difficult to explain in one sentence, is it so difficult to jointly develop an operating system?"

"Mr. Zhang, things are not what you think."

Yang Yuanqing explained.

"After you came back last time, we did unite several companies to develop an operating system together. What we mean on the Lenovo side is that considering the technical problems of other small and medium-sized enterprises, we Lenovo can undertake the research and development of operating system technology, but the funds need to be responsible for other small and medium-sized enterprises. Originally, they agreed, but later, I don't know who said it. Our Lenovo's operating system technology is not very good, and they are not at ease when it is handed over to us Lenovo for development. Then, arguing and arguing, everyone fell apart. ”

"I'm going to go."

Tears flowed down his face, "Then there is no need to talk about it?" ”

"Not really."

Yang Yuanqing shook his head.

"Most companies agree with the idea of using the same operating system, but there are problems when it comes to how to develop it. And ......"

"And what?"

"I don't know whether to say this or not."

"What should be said and what should not be said, say it, is there anything I should not hear? Even if there is, it is. ”

"Okay, I said it."

Yang Yuanqing was stunned, and then he said.

It turns out that these companies do not agree with Lenovo's development, in addition to the fact that although Lenovo's technology is better than theirs, it is not necessarily any better. Most people actually want Penguin to develop one for them.

"No, let's Penguin develop it for you."

Zhang Ning smiled bitterly.

"Everyone is not afraid of our penguins having a monopoly."

"I didn't think about it. Anyway, even if you penguins don't have a monopoly, you can now be regarded as monopolizing the world. ”

"Okay, I see, what do you mean?"

Zhang Ning asked.

"Everyone doesn't agree with us Lenovo leading, we can't help it, the face is not so big, the strength is not so strong, it is normal for them to disagree. Of course, I'm definitely hoping that you Penguin can develop this operating system for us. ”

"In that case, why don't you call me?"

"This ......"

Yang Yuanqing didn't know how to answer.

"Oh, I see."

Seeing that Yang Yuanqing didn't reply, Zhang Ning quickly understood.

"I'm embarrassed to tell me."

As he spoke, Zhang Ning also laughed.

It's possible.

Originally, the smart phone was developed by Penguin.

The current smartphone market is a monopoly of Penguin.

Who wants to let some other smartphones in?

If you help them develop a unified operating system, it won't help them grab their own market.

These electronic companies have been supported by Zhang Ning a lot, and they have some friendship with Zhang Ning.

No matter how unscrupulous a businessman is, I'm afraid he can't open such a mouth.

Of course, even if it has nothing to do with Zhang Ning.

It is estimated that such a request will not be made at this time.

To make it clear, this kind of request to help them grab their own market is probably impossible for anyone to agree.

Don't mention this kind of request.

I'm afraid others will think you're taking him for an idiot.

Not to mention, for Penguin, which is even more savvy than them.

If such a request is made, Penguin will not care.

In case they got into trouble, they couldn't contain Zhang Ning's anger.

"Okay, since everyone thinks so, then, I agreed."

Without thinking about it, Zhang Ning agreed.

"Ah......h

Yang Yuanqing thought he had misheard.

"Mr. Zhang, you answered, agreed?"

No way.

This can also be promised?

Could Zhang Ning be a good man of the ninth generation, and he likes to help them?

But that doesn't look like it.

When Penguin Company was on the rise, I don't know how many domestic companies were pitted.

During that period of time, Penguin Company was scolded to death by a number of companies.

When did I see Zhang Ning so kind.

It was only after the penguins entered the global market that they got a little better.

However, even if it is better, it is impossible to help others to grab his own market so obviously.

In other words, Yang Yuanqing, even if it is a state-owned company that serves the country, it is impossible for them to agree.

However, Zhang Ning actually agreed.

"Mr. Zhang, did you listen to what I said in reverse?"

With suspicion, Yang Yuanqing said.

"No, how can I hear it the other way around?"

Zhang Ning couldn't help but laugh.

It's really hard to understand if you dare to make this promise.

However, it is true.

It's just that Zhang Ning's promise is not really so friendly.

Although Zhang Ning intends to support domestic enterprises.

But support is support, and support will certainly not be to let them grab their own market.

As for why it was agreed to develop an operating system for them.

In fact, the reason is very simple.

This is the general trend.

In the future smartphone market, Penguin is destined not to have a complete monopoly.

Similarly, the smartphones of the future are destined to have a unified operating system.

Just like the emergence of Apple smartphones in later generations, the emergence of Android is to deal with Apple.

Today, Zhang Ning's Meizu generation has replaced the Apple of later generations.

Not surprisingly, in the future, the world's electronics giants will shift from dealing with Apple together in later generations to dealing with their penguins.

Naturally, another Android will also appear.

Moreover, Zhang Ning also got the news.

Google recently said it was withdrawing from the smartphone market, although it looks like they did. But in fact, they did not quit.

They have acquired a software studio called Android, which became known as the Android operating system.

Instead of letting Google use Android to deal with their Meizu, it is better to make one yourself before Android.

At the very least, such an operating system is in your own hands.

He will be able to take the penguin to destroy Android in the future.

It can also be regarded as maintaining the advantage of the Penguin Meizu generation in the future.

Without hesitation, Zhang Ning said, "Mr. Yang, you can talk to other companies." Let's just say that I, Zhang Ning, agreed, of course, please rest assured that other companies are also reassured. We will develop this operating system with our hearts, and we will also treat this system equally and put it on the same status as the Meizu generation operating system. ”

"Mr. Zhang, we believe in you, even if you don't say it, we know it. On behalf of other electronics companies, I would like to thank you, thank you, and I will call them now. ”

Yang Yuanqing hung up the phone excitedly, and the admiration for Zhang Ning in his heart had risen to the point of being incomprehensible.

Although, Yang Yuanqing didn't know why Zhang Ning agreed.

But he knew that Zhang Ning's promise would definitely damage the current Meizu generation.

But Zhang Ning still agreed.

It's like a saint, and it's so revered.

This is the general trend.

In the future smartphone market, Penguin is destined not to have a complete monopoly.

Similarly, the smartphones of the future are destined to have a unified operating system.

Just like the emergence of Apple smartphones in later generations, the emergence of Android is to deal with Apple.

Today, Zhang Ning's Meizu generation has replaced the Apple of later generations.

It can also be regarded as maintaining the advantage of the Penguin Meizu generation in the future.

Without hesitation, Zhang Ning said, "Mr. Yang, you can talk to other companies." Let's just say that I, Zhang Ning, agreed, of course, please rest assured that other companies are also reassured. We will develop this operating system with our hearts, and we will also treat this system equally and put it on the same status as the Meizu generation operating system. ”

"Mr. Zhang, we believe in you, even if you don't say it, we know it. On behalf of other electronics companies, I would like to thank you, thank you, and I will call them now. ”

But he knew that Zhang Ning's promise would definitely damage the current Meizu generation.
