Chapter 191: A gentleman is afraid of villains
After Ma Xin launched this plugin, Google's heart was very tired, because from a technical point of view, it had no way to prohibit this kind of function.
The ATE40 with Xiaoyuan's voice assistant is the real ATE40, so many users will take the initiative to ask the seller who sells the mobile phone to help add plug-ins.
As such, the plugin is a personal act and has permission from the user, and has nothing to do with the source code company.
Even in some European online communities and forums, there is a discussion about how to get plugins over the wall.
The plug-in for Xiaoyuan's voice assistant has also led to a new high in sales of Warwick ATE40 phones in Europe, which is a win-win strategy.
Ma Xin said: "A month and a half after the plug-in was launched, Google gave up the ban on Xiaoyuan's voice assistant and was open to Xiaoyuan's voice assistant. ”
Xue Ninglu added: "Warwick and Google have reached an agreement that for the sake of the privacy of European users, the Xiaoyuan voice assistant server running European users must be placed in Europe, which is checked by the relevant European departments, and all the user's data cannot be obtained from Xia Guo." Warwick chose to respect the laws of Europe and Google's requirements, and did as required, so Xiaoyuan's voice assistant is not currently banned in Europe. ”
Ma Xin is very happy: "According to the cooperation agreement between us and Huawei on Xiaoyuan's voice assistant, Xiaoyuan's voice assistant's market share in Europe will increase, and our profits will also increase significantly." ”
Xue Linglu also informed a very important news, "In addition to Warwick, other non-Apple Android phones can also be the same as other brand mobile phones in Xia Guo, and the third-party version of Xiaoyuan voice on the third-party application platform." Our earnings will be greatly increased! We've tripled our ad revenue in the last month! ”
Triple the advertising revenue!
Very scary growth value!
The European market has become the most important market for source code companies!
The operation and business decisions of the source code company, Zhou Xiao generally does not ask, because professional things are handed over to professional people to deal with, Zhou Xiao only needs to provide a general development direction for the company, if the company's big and small things are like Zhou Xiao's report before making decisions, not only Zhou Xiao has no time of his own, he deals with the company's affairs every day, and the company's operation efficiency is also very slow.
Cooperate with Huawei to let Xiaoyuan's voice assistant gain a firm foothold in Europe, this matter itself is nothing, it belongs to the company's daily affairs, and it is completely in the decision-making of Ma Xin's team, and there is no need to report to Zhou Xiao.
But Zhou Xiao was thinking about a question.
The server running Xiaoyuan's voice assistant is located in Europe, and it is controlled by Europeans?
Zhou Xiao has no objection to this, he has no interest in the privacy of Europeans.
In addition, the server running platform is all developed by a Chinese language compiler, and the process is very complicated, and Europeans cannot decipher the underlying content of the server at all, and Zhou Xiao is also relieved.
Warwick and Google have reached an understanding, and the two sides have reached a cooperation, which is originally a happy thing, but Zhou Xiao always feels that there is something wrong with it.
The application of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant almost abandoned the Google ecological chain and built a separate ecological chain, which is an act of bypassing Google and will greatly shrink Google's revenue.
So, why did Google so readily let Xiaoyuan's voice assistant enter Europe?
Could it really be that Google can't ban the plug-in of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant? So give up the resistance and make it more convenient for users to use their phones?
According to Zhou Xiao's understanding of Google, Google will definitely not be so generous.
The more Zhou Xiao thought about it, the more he felt that there would definitely be something wrong with it!
He asked Ma Xin: "What do you think of the cooperation between Huawei and Google this time?" ”
Ma Xin thought for a while and said: "The use habits of users in the European market for mobile applications are still very different from those of Xia Guo, it can be said that Europe is one of Google's important markets, and users are abiding by the rules of Google instead of Xia Guo when using mobile phone applications.
In the past, Warwick's sales in the European market were very good, and Google's cooperation was inseparable. ”
That being said, there is no problem, and the cooperation between Warwick and Google is also fully in line with the rules of business operation.
But Zhou Xiao raised a question that made Ma Xin feel a little difficult to explain.
Zhou Xiao said: "In order to cooperate with the sanctions imposed on Warwick by the United States, Google has banned Warwick from using GS services, which are the soul of Android. Warwick struggled to develop the HS service. Although the HS service is completely set up according to Google's model and will not affect the use of Warwick mobile phones by European consumers, don't you think the relationship between Google and Warwick is not as good as we all imagined? ”
Zhou Xiao said: "Even if Google banned GS services, how could it turn on Xiaoyuan's voice assistant, which is more terrible than GS services?" ”
Ma Xin fell into deep thought, he did think about the question Zhou Xiao asked at the beginning, but he didn't think about it so carefully.
Now Zhou Xiao asks again, it is true.
This is a good metaphor for the owner Google does not welcome Warwick as a guest at home, the door will not open, and now suddenly give you the key to the bedroom to welcome you to the market, which is very illogical.
Ma Xin frowned and did not answer Zhou Xiao's question immediately.
Xue Linglu was still relatively young, so she didn't think about it so much, she said: "It's all business!" You can talk about it today, and you can talk about it tomorrow! ”
Wrong!
Something must be wrong!
Zhou Xiao returned to the office and said: "I now want the data of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant in the European market, and I also want our revenue in the European market." ”
Seeing Zhou Xiao's expression, Xue Ninglu realized the seriousness of the matter, and she said, "I'll get it right away." ”
The data and reports were brought in.
Xiaoyuan's voice assistant's market share in the European market is mainly divided into two parts.
One is the actual number of Warwick ATE40 phones in Europe.
