Chapter 776 PS2 uses open-source Android
"No solution!" A voice said coldly.
"Why is there no solution?" Yang Yun was a little anxious.
"Because you can't open the source code!"
"I don't need open source, I just have competitors take a certain market share."
"You give your chances of survival to someone else? Do you think others really can't find out who is the real master? Are you sure you can really control them? ”
Yang Yun was speechless, he remembered a sentence, no one in this world can be trusted except himself!
"Heretics, be judged! You have to pay the price for your hubris! A medieval judge in a robe pointed at him with a code of law.
"Hahahaha! Yang Yun, thank you for the startup capital, and the source code you provided! I've been under you for so many years, and you've finally made a mistake once! And a fatal mistake! Behind him was a mountain of PS2 console boxes, and he crossed his waist and laughed wildly, and then more and more Japanese appeared behind him, more and more, and finally converged into a pattern of a sun flag.
"Mr. Yang, since you are open source, does it mean that you have completely lost control? We've been working hard for so many years, and my Nintendo, too, is desperate to return to the TV game console market! Brown and a cadre of KTT employees also appeared in front of Yang Yun, smiling very strangely, with respect, and the pride of being finally released after being suppressed for a long time, betrayal is a natural thing for them, everyone is laughing, as if to say "I'm sorry Mr. Yang we are leaving, thank you for your support".
Zhao Yongping, Zhang Guoqiang. Zhu Shuguang, Lin Zhihong. People took turns blaming him for his mistakes. laughed at his arrogance, and even the two sons and daughters, who were staggering and unable to walk steadily, said in a milky voice: "Dad, did we do something wrong?" Are we going to have nothing left in the future? ”
Call...... Call...... Call......
Yang Yun's eyes opened, he really broke out in a cold sweat, he was not afraid of the intrigues of any competitor, he was not afraid of the government's pressure on him, but he was most afraid that his children would be hurt even a little.
He propped himself up and saw through the faint moonlight the crib where his wife was sleeping, and his son was snoring evenly. Appearing very calm and calm, his wife muttered, "What's wrong?" ”
"It's okay, you continue to sleep...... Yang Yun kissed her forehead, got out of bed with her clothes on, came to the balcony of the study, opened the window above the radiator slightly, and lit a cigarette.
It was snowing outside, and a cold wind blew in, and Yang Yun rubbed his temples. Finally came to his senses.
The dream he remembered was so real that it scared him, and he carefully recalled every word, trying to find out if he had really made a mistake.
He chatted with Zhu Shuguang the day before. Speaking of anti-monopoly matters, one is against Microsoft, in order to prevent Microsoft's bundling. He will raise the weapon of antitrust against the other party, and the other against himself. This weapon is a double-edged sword that can stab opponents. It will also hurt itself, and you have to do better to not be hurt, otherwise this qiē is meaningless.
In all fairness, after taking out Nintendo and Sony, leaving a Microsoft is really not to be afraid of, in real history, it took Microsoft's Xbox 4 years to surpass the PS2, and four years to sharpen the sword, but it was just to lay a foundation, to announce to the world that Microsoft is capable of making a best-selling TV game console, although it has lost $6 billion.
It wasn't until the second generation of Xbox360 was produced, and after four years of hard work, Microsoft managed to sell 10 million Xbox360 units and have 160 games, so that it could turn its own XboxLive online system into a profit, and it could also try to integrate Internet Protocol TV software, fully enter the home entertainment and game industry, and try to dominate people's living rooms.
Yang Yun is very confident, if it continues to develop like Longteng, it is very simple to defeat Microsoft in these fields, because he has the largest number of users, and he still has the best-selling game in ten years, and he knows how to fight the best strategy in the user's living room battle, and he can even advance every step by more than two years, and the latecomer doesn't even drink soup.
Or the hateful anti-monopoly investigation, KTT acquired Nintendo, NewSonic acquired Sony Games, plus a Microsoft Xbox, under Yang Yun's deliberate suppression, Longteng's DC game market share has always remained at about 80%, and he didn't dare to launch any more masterpieces, and he didn't even ask for the sales task of the marketing department.
Wang Zhe and Jiang Shaoyun once expressed their puzzlement, they expected Longteng's DC product turnover in 2000 to exceed 10 billion US dollars, but Yang Yun just smiled, reduced this number by 20%, and then returned to the plan: "It's okay to keep this number, don't grow too fast." ”
Jiang Shaoyun said: "Mr. Yang, it is difficult for us to control the surface of the market, competitors' products are not affected by us, players have money in their hands, whether to buy our DC games or not is also a matter for them to decide, we can't give them a hyperlink to the competitor's game, right?" ”
Wang Zhe also said: "It is much more difficult to spend money than to make money, the players are too enthusiastic, what if we can't stop it?" ”
Yang Yun couldn't cry or laugh, he was really in a predicament, he was afraid that he would make too much money!
In order to solve this problem, Yang Yun and Wang Zhejiang Shaoyun confessed to them, as well as the undercover Zhongshan Hayabusa, and the half-concealed Brown, the plan he threw out surprised everyone.
PS2 will be launched in April, and it will use the open operating program Android system provided by Longteng, this system is called Android, but Yang Yun took the name for his own convenience, but its core idea is the same as the real Android, that is, open source.
The open-source Android system will not be controlled by the manufacturer, which means that how much Android software will be available on the PS2 console in the future is completely not controlled by NewSonic, as long as players can connect to the Internet, they can download and delete Android software on the console at will, play free games, or use application software, players decide for themselves.
The problem is that this system is open source and public, whether it is Microsoft, EA, or even the Penguin Software Company in Shenzhen, as long as they want, they can launch a game console at any time, or simply assemble a simple personal computer with CPU, GUP, memory, hard disk, network card, as long as they run this system, it is a new game console, how can they prevent it?
Hayao Nakayama was the first to object: "Even if I don't release a PS2, I have a way to reduce the suspicion of the Japanese government and people, NewSonic suspended the development of the original PS2 and switched to more profitable PC games, this kind of thing is easy to explain, you don't have to worry too much about my situation." ”
He thought that Yang Yun was an open source idea in order to make NewSonic as good as possible to gain the trust of the Japanese, and he himself was very opposed to any form of open source.
Brown also objected: "President Nakayama is right, after we KTT bought Nintendo, the original N64 production line was also suspended, and although the transformation to PC games was questioned, it quickly turned a profit and allowed us to get through this difficulty. However, I think it may be because we are an American company, but I don't believe that the Japanese people and government can forcibly shut down NewSonic! ”
Wang Zhe did not express his position, Zhang Guoqiang said that he needed time to think, Jiang Shaoyun was silent, and the Chinese in the core team collectively expressed a calm attitude, because their thinking is similar to Yang Yun, after sitting in their high position, the problem is no longer a simple business competition, they can easily think of a word that Chinese often hang on their lips - balance.
Chinese likes to do balance the most, of course, it does not mean that foreigners do not engage in it, the Japanese cabinet and the US Senate and the House of Representatives are also two parties vying for it, but they speak according to their strength, whoever has the support of the people in the ruling program will have the advantage, unlike China, where some people wave their hands and someone in a region is too strong, then give him more competitors and suppress him.
After realizing what Yang Yun really meant, Wang Zhe actually agreed: "I finally understand what Mr. Yang meant by controlling the speed of making money." ”
Jiang Shaoyun also said: "The best way to control the speed of making money and increase the speed of making money of KTT and NewSonic is to expand the market share of these two 'competitors' as much as possible, I think Mr. Yang should have a plan for the next step, right?" ”
Yang Yun said: "That's right, the next step, I hope KTT will also restart the Nintendo TV game console, since it is an open-source game console, then everyone can use it." ”
Wang Zhe keenly found a question: "What about Longteng's next-generation host?" Is it also open source? ”
Yang Yun was reluctant to mention this matter: "I have my own arrangements for Longteng's own affairs, the success of the Android system will take a long time to verify, the two of you use the same operating system, and the biggest competitor you will face is not Longteng, but Microsoft!" ”
Everyone suddenly realized that Yang Yun's move was ostensibly an open game console software system and players could freely control the download, and the real core was the battle over the operating system.
PS2 and Nintendo's new consoles will no longer be simple game consoles, but a small computer, they are competing with Microsoft for the market, jumping out of the game industry, and stealing food from other people's bowls.
It is not because of the game that PS2 sales have increased, and it will not affect Longteng's dominance in the game industry, but PS2 has indeed increased its market share, and Longteng is out of its monopoly position! (To be continued......)
