The world's first mobile phone capable of accessing the Internet was the Nokia 7110 launched by Nokia in 2000. You can't add advanced extensions like Java apps, monochrome screens, no custom ringtones, can't be used to take photos and video recordings. After more than ten years, this kind of mobile phone is simply something that no one wants for nothing.

Of course, technology is something that cannot be measured by time, and although nokia7110 is simple, it is a product that cannot be ignored in the history of mobile phones.

At that time, nokia7110 was a popular game in the field of mobile communications. Because it was the first mobile phone that could be used to log in to the WAP network, in addition to making calls and texting, logging into the Internet became the most novel feature of the mobile phone.

While the features it can do online are extremely simple, the setup is very complicated and cumbersome to use. But when the nokia7110 was launched, it still attracted the attention of the whole industry.

Without him, the launch of nokia7110 means the arrival of a new era. The rise of the wireless Internet has made communication not only limited to voice and simple text, but truly enabled human beings to connect with the world through a small machine. And this qiē is all derived from the mobile phone app's protocol called wireless application communication.

The Wireless Application Protocol, or WAP, was promulgated in early 1998. At the moment in 1997, the three giants of mobile communications, Ericsson, Motorola and Nokia, had just had such an idea, and sat down and prepared to talk about how to make this cake.

Well. When they were done, they would surely find that some unharmonious obstacles had suddenly arisen in their way forward......

Of course. In 1997, Zhou Shuo proposed the copycat "Monternet", which could not communicate with the Internet network at all. Most, most. It can only be regarded as an information value-added service. It can accept emails from designated servers through the built-in mail software of the mobile phone, and can query the news, weather forecasts, stock market and other information provided by the network service provider through the special application of the guò.

But even so, Zhou Shuo still has a lot of key technologies in his hands. For example, the codecs that must be used in mobile browsers, such as some important implementations of the WML language, and the conversion technology between the WAP protocol stack and the Internet protocol stack......

With these pre-planted mines, Zhou Shuo is not worried that the three giants will not play with themselves. It's not impossible to bypass these key technologies, but it also means more complex implementations, lower performance, higher costs, and cumbersome for customers to use. Difficulties in obtaining information resources, and many other problems.

On the premise of not startling the snake and not letting the Big Three realize in advance that they had planted a mine and changed the court, Zhou Shuo had no choice but to come up with such a cottage first.

Back then, Monternet didn't just provide some information value-added services, it was a real way to log in to the Internet!

As for the "Monternet" in his mouth now, all that is left is the ability to access the specific servers of the wèn service provider. The name of this "Montnet" is inevitably a bit undeserved.

However, Albert is only the most inconspicuous one of the Dutch telecom operators, not to mention the three giants of mobile communications.

Albert wants to talk about demeanor and managerial quality, and Zhou Shuo is out of reach. But if it's far-sighted. In front of Zhou Shuo, he was just a turtle.

This castrated version of "Mobile Montnet" still stunned him.

This digital mobile phone has only been popular in the market for two or three years, and everyone doesn't even have a new function of calling and texting, and this information service function is really outstanding.

"A server that provides information to mobile terminals. We at Panhan Group have research. We also have a perfect solution to the transmission of digital signals......"

Pan Han Group has not engaged in a similar system in China, and the song download of the charm M2. It is a digital signal that is converted into a digital signal after modulating an audio signal. The only difference is that it used to be transmitted via guò landline. Now it's just through the guòGSM network.

Of course, the biggest problem here. Actually, it's still -- no equipment.

Albert also heard that Monternet was indeed very much in line with his idea of Telfort's differentiated competition. But it's like if there are only servers on the Internet, no personal computers and terminals, then the Internet is just as useless!

Therefore, the server side of Monternet is easy to say, but how to realize the user side?

"Mr. Zhou's idea is very good, very good!" Albert did not hesitate to praise himself, but still said regretfully: "It's just that the mobile phones on the market at present, I'm afraid there are no mobile phones that can achieve this kind of function." Unless the major mobile phone manufacturers disclose the source code of the operating system, we will not be able to develop our own applications for email and messaging services. ”

"Mr. Albert, don't worry about that." Zhou Shuo came prepared today, and he has a complete set of solutions for Telfort's current situation.

He reached out and pulled a cell phone out of his pocket and placed it on the café. Then in the leather bag he carried with him, he took out a thin rectangular piece of equipment.

Albert watched curiously as Zhou Shuo opened the shell of the rectangular handheld device, revealing an LCD screen inside. I saw Zhou Shuo's hand press and hold on the edge of this device, the LCD screen was lit up suddenly, and the logo of Fanhan Group flashed, and it entered the boot screen after a short time.

"It's a PDA, right? I have a MessagePad that I bought from Apple, and it's about the same as the one you have. ”

Known as the Newton machine in China, the MessagePad is the world's first handheld computer product. It has the characteristics of large screen and full handwriting input. Not only is it regarded as the ancestor of the modern PDA, but many of Apple's later iPhone design flashes are also reflected in it.

Zhou Shuo smiled and nodded unabashedly: "That's right, broadly speaking, this is indeed a PDA product." However, compared to Apple's MessagePad, the functions are not the same. ”

As he spoke, he operated, and pulled out a headphone cable from the side of the body of the PDA in his hand and connected it to the headphone jack of the mobile phone.

"Apple's MessagePad is mainly used for word processing, financial management and computing, drawing and other functions, and is sold as a peripheral for its Mac computers, and it is inseparable from the assistance of Mac computers in use."

"But I put this PDA product in my hand, but it is positioned as an information service terminal. Its processor and memory are not as powerful as those of the MessagePad, and its features are not as diverse. The only thing that can be commended is that it can convert the audio information received from the mobile phone into digital information. ”

Speaking of which, Zhou Shuo has already set up the functions of the PDA and the mobile phone. He pressed a Chinese phone number on his phone, and when he connected it, the PDA device in his hand began to display the words "Plaesewait......". Shortly after, the PDA screen switches to the word Connected.

"Okay, this is a mobile Monternet server that we set up in China, Mr. Albert can experience it first."

Zhou Shuo pushed the mobile phone and PDA in front of Albert and said generously.

Albert first grabbed the mobile phone that Zhou Shuo pushed over and looked at it carefully. This is a more classic Motorola 8900 mobile phone, which should be a new product bought in the Netherlands, and the warranty seal has not been cleaned up. As far as the completeness of the phone is concerned, there should be no additional modifications.

After confirming that it was an ordinary mobile phone that could be seen everywhere, Albert was relieved. Curiously, he picked up the PDA on the side again and tried to operate it.

As Zhou Shuo said, the function of this PDA product is very simple. Unlike MessagePad, which has so many commercial functions, it only has the most basic functions such as note-taking and calculation, and then it is the three applications of receiving emails and interviewing wèn mobile Monternet and Liuer IM.

Albert put down the PDA in his hand, frowned, and said with some hesitation.

"Zhou, please understand, I hope to be able to confirm that these contents are not stored in this machine by you in advance......"

"Oh, of course that's fine." Zhou Shuo didn't panic at all, and wrote down an email address to him: "This is the email address we used to test, you can send an email to this mailbox, and then use this PDA to visit the wèn mailbox." ”

Albert didn't expect Zhou Shuo to be so crisp, slightly surprised, took out his mobile phone, and quickly conveyed the request to his secretary.

But in two minutes, when he refreshed the PDA's email again, his eyes suddenly widened!

"This is true!" He turned it over and looked at the machine in his hand, and his face was rarely a little serious.

"Of course it's true." Zhou Shuo smiled innocently and spread his hands.

In Albert's eyes, he deeply felt that in order to reverse foreigners' distrust of Chinese technology, Chinese companies still need to make more efforts, and there is still a long way to go! (To be continued......)
