Finland is the country with the highest forest cover in the world.

It covers an area of 330,000 square kilometers and has a temperate oceanic climate.

It's a good idea to visit Finland in the summer.

In southern Finland is a city called Espoo, Finland's second largest city, less than 17 kilometers from the capital, with a population of nearly 250,000 and two world-renowned companies: KONE Elevator and Nokia.

KONE Elevator is one of the largest elevator companies in the world, with an annual turnover of 6 billion euros and a business in more than 50 countries around the world.

Of course, today the protagonist is not him, but Mr. Nokia.

When the name Nokia is mentioned, many people may think of mobile phones and maps.

Before 2011, he was almost unbeatable when it came to mobile communication products!

However, at the beginning of Nokia's establishment, it was mainly papermaking, and then gradually began to involve rubber, tires, oil, pharmaceuticals and natural gas, and other fields, until 1996, when it became a real mobile phone manufacturer.

Chinese people have a soft spot for Nokia, and when it comes to her, the first impression is: good quality, strong and durable.

This is also the highest evaluation of him by the pragmatic Chinese nation.

To this day, Nokia is still the benchmark for Chinese people to measure a good mobile phone, no matter how long you leave it in the corner, you can still make calls when you charge it and plug in the card.

Just like those two Internet slang: whether the quality is good or not, let's see if the quality is good, Nokia's triple defense protects the earth.

In the past two years, in the face of the rapid development of the smartphone market. She can't keep up with this era, assuming that there is no infinite dream, I'm afraid she has been married home by Microsoft as a little wife.

According to statistics, from August 2012 to February 2013, Nokia shipped 55.3 million units in these four months, and the number of orders was as high as 88.7 million.

Excluding various costs, based on a net profit of $50 per phone, she has earned $2.7 billion in the past four months alone.

And that's not even counting the order of 30 million units and a large deposit.

Today is Valentine's Day in the West, and Nokia's headquarters has dressed herself up in blue because she will welcome her most sincere friend Yang Ye.

It was snowing lightly in Finland at this time. Snowflakes are like weightless foam balls.

Bob and Will had already rushed to the airport to greet them. Other engineers and staff members are preparing their own gifts.

When you come to Nokia's headquarters, you will find that there is no exaggerated floor space and theme parks, and there are just practicalities.

The design of the Nokia headquarters building is inspired by the Rubik's Cube, and the offices and rooms are like small grids in the Rubik's Cube.

The building is divided into 8 major areas. Including the front desk of the headquarters. On-site restaurant. Work area, rest area, book area. Recycling area, recreation area, and a unique Nokia phone wall.

It is not only full of history, but also full of memories.

In the lounge area, a group of staff dressed in Nokia costumes gathered in the dessert room, showing off their gifts to each other.

Tick –

A blonde activates the 'baby' voice system in her phone.

Her name is Natalie, a native of Espoo, Finland, and the appearance of YOS makes her fall in love with the dazzling twin stars.

If Yang Ye hadn't brought his fiancée with him today, Natalie would have been more than willing to have dinner with him, and then romantically roll the sheets.

"Hi 'sweetheart', help me look up how to write the Chinese character 'I love you'."

Di, her voice system 'sweetheart' fell into deep thought, and in less than a second, the Chinese word 'I love you' appeared in the center of the screen, accompanied by a multilingual comparison.

This technique has been optimized twice by Yang Ye, and the fluency is already very high, and it has not yet been officially pushed and is only used as an internal test.

With YOS's unique computing power as the core, through the search engine and the accurate recognition of the voice system, her 'sweetheart' can quickly find the right answer.

The reason why the baby voice assistance system can accurately recognize is because of the owner's repeated teaching, when it is familiar with the user's accent and speaking speed, it can hear the user's words like a child.

This is unmatched by other voice systems.

"Hi Natalie, I've got you covered——。"

"Thank you! Please enlarge the Chinese font. ”

Natalie happily put her phone on the seat, half-knelt on the ground and began to draw a scoop according to the man on the screen.

The font is cute and miserable.

The core function of the voice game 'Baby Cultivation' has been discovered by players who are good at discovery.

In their free time, many people like to ask strange questions, and their voice system answers more interestingly.

For example, when you ask it what the sky is blue when you are connected to the Internet, it will find the standard answer to the Internet Encyclopedia to tell you.

And when there is no Internet connection, the result of that answer can be bizarre and even hilarious.

On Facebook, some YOS enthusiasts have played a similar quiz game, asking: How can I make myself happy?

There are two points that must be observed to participate in this game.

First, you must make sure that you are not connected to the network cable to ask questions.

Second, it must be a real treasure answer, not a forgery.

Out of the 2,000 uploaded videos, the first place in the ranking was a user from Mexico.

His baby's name is Jackson.

When Jackson was asked this question, he made it clear to his owner: you feel happy when you bury your face in the.

This answer won the best award for the game of the year, and everyone laughed at it. The short 30-second video has already generated 18 million hits on Google's Turtle website!

This is an ad for Nokia and YOS, and people seem to prefer personalized humorous explanations like YOS in the face of Apple's dull voice system.

In a small town in Washington State, USA, someone also set up a baby club.

The club is open on Saturdays and Sundays, and the most interesting part is the online questioning, and you may have fun all day with an interesting answer.

……

8 a.m. After more than 7 hours of flight, Yang Ye and Liu Feiyan finally arrived at Espoo Airport.

On this trip to Finland, Yang Ye not only wanted to fulfill his original promise, but also took Liu Feiyan to spend a romantic 3 days.

has been in love for nearly half a year, Yang Ye didn't give her too much care, and most of the time she was busy with business, or mixed with Paul.

Of course, Yang Ye didn't go abroad this time just for these two things.

After his trip to Finland, he flies to Google's headquarters in the United States. At that time, he will meet with Wang Shiru and his assistant Lingyu.

Regarding the plan of Google Glass wearable system, Li Lingyu has been finalized with Google, and Yang Ye will sign a cooperation agreement with them during this trip to the United States.

Besides. He also negotiated an acquisition with a Silicon Valley cloud technology company.

In 2013. Yang Ye wants to speed up his pace!

……

"Hi Paul, welcome to Nokia!"

Bob was the first to get out of the car, and he pointed to the headquarters building in front of him and proudly showed it to Yang Ye.

At this time, some local reporters who had obtained Yang Ye's itinerary rushed up and kept asking Yang Ye various questions.

Compared to the domestic media. They are very few of them. And the questions were brief.

9 o'clock sharp. Yang Ye and the two walked into the Nokia dessert café at Bob and Will's arrival.

Here, a Valentine's Day cake and champagne have been prepared for him and Liu Feiyan.

"Hey! How are you, Paul~"

"Very well, what about you? Wait a minute. Your name is Kony, right? ”

"Great, I didn't expect you to remember my name."

"Of course, you were Paul's first fan."

"What about me? Do you remember my name? ”

"Of course ......"

After a few pleasant conversations, Yang Ye held a plate of cake and chatted with Bob about Nokia's recent sales, and talked about the automotive YOS system and the Internet of Things.

Liu Feiyan talked to a group of female employees about their favorite topics.

"Really? The best intelligent system in the YOS world, it would be cool to put it in a car! ”

Bob showed great interest in Yang Ye's car system: "You may not know the road yet, we are also planning car autonomous driving and navigation, maybe we can cooperate!" ”

"Of course you can, but that will wait until the first model is launched, and I have already negotiated this matter with the domestic Hualiang company."

As he spoke, Yang Ye stirred the cream and asked, "Does Nokia also have plans to build a tram?" ”

Bob humorously said, "You know, we used to build wheels, and the tram was just an engine and an iron box on the wheel. The Nokia tram may not be the fastest, but it is certainly the toughest in the world. ”

"Ha Luha, are you going to destroy the earth again this time?"

Yang Ye smiled and didn't take his words to heart.

However, an hour later, he found himself inexplicably at the negotiating table, and the content of the negotiation was the YOS car autonomous driving system......

In fact, as early as the first half of 2012, Nokia considered transferring its core industries.

At that time, Nokia's mobile phone sales were declining, and some people in the board of directors had already suggested that cars were Nokia's next future development goal.

This proposal was agreed by half of the directors, because Nokia has already laid a very important foreshadowing in the future of automobiles, that is, Nokia Maps.

Nokia Maps may be less well-known than Google Maps, but it is used by more than 80% of the world's in-car navigation systems.

Nokia already has plans to offer a solution for autonomous driving based on IoT technology.

This idea is very close to Ma Qingyun's thinking, and now they are close to the development of related systems.

Bob and the board members talked about this to Yang Ye:

The ultimate goal of the project is to combine autonomous driving and vehicle networks to form a complete urban Internet of Things.

But all of this depends on maps and operating systems as the core. In addition, system security is also a consideration for them.

Too much closure will lead to reduced user activity, and too much openness may easily lead to catastrophic events in the system.

For example: being controlled by hackers, being monitored by unknown people, etc.

Just before Christmas, they had already discussed a cooperation with Mercedes-Benz of Germany, and the two sides will jointly research the technology of autonomous driving in cars, and officially introduce it to the world in 2020.

However, for now, this time may be a little earlier, because there will be a third company joining - Infinity Dream.

Relying on the perfect safety and smoothness of YOS, as well as the reliable quality of Nokia Maps and Mercedes-Benz, the board is confident that it will build the best car in the world.

After 2 hours of negotiation, Yang Ye and Nokia have determined the cooperation plan of the international version of YOS automotive system.

This version will be paid exclusively by Nokia, but the application of the APP within the system, as well as the information, entertainment, and shopping mall, will be run by Nokia.

In other words, Infinite Dream only provides system and technical support, and does not care about anything else, as for the detailed amount and cooperation method, it still needs to be agreed upon by the lawyer teams of both parties.

This cooperation outside of this time is a very good Valentine's Day gift for Yang Ye.
