[Thanks and reward for the helmsman of "NNT General"!] ]

Luo Sheng returned to Sioux City, and the first thing he did when he came to the company early the next morning was to send a notice to the CEOs and CTO of all the major subsidiaries of Bluestar Technology Group, that is, to hold a core executive meeting three days later, and the presidents of Europe and the Americas also received the notice.
The next day, the CEOs in charge of the six major sectors of overseas business flew to Sioux City immediately after receiving the notice from the parent company.
They didn't know what to do, but it was obviously a very important thing, and Luo Sheng specially reminded them to keep a low profile, don't make a storm in the city, and all the industry knows about it.
Three days later, the core executives of the headquarters of Bluestar Technology held a meeting.
Li Songyi at the helm of Blue Space, Jack Stalllman of BlueSpace, Zhou Jin of Bluestar Video, Chad Hurley of BluestarVideo, Zhang Long of Bluestar Music, Max Deere of MusicSpace, Li Mingyuan of Weibo, David Sachs of MicroBlog, Steve Hoffman of Reddit, Yu Jun of Yunge Search, as well as George Charles, President of the Americas of the Group Company, and Nicksh Brown, President of Europe. Mehrotra and other core figures were all present.
In terms of the parent company, Feng Yi and Xu Yong were also present.
"Everyone, this time I urgently summoned all of you to this meeting......" Luo Sheng, who was sitting at the head of the long table, saw their expressions, and changed his words halfway through the previous words: "Don't panic as soon as you hear the word 'urgent', don't panic, this time is very urgent and a big thing, but it is not a bad thing, it is a good thing." β
There was a low burst of laughter from everyone in the conference room, and frankly they really thought that there had been some major accident just now, and they were inexplicably shocked in their hearts.
"OK, let's get down to business." Luo Sheng returned to the previous topic again, and when everyone looked at the boss in unison and waited for him to speak, he suddenly picked up a lockbox from the floor next to his seat.
The crowd was puzzled.
Luo Sheng was silent, and quickly opened the box, which contained six physical prototypes of first-generation Azure smartphones, three white and three black.
"Let's take a look."
After Luo Sheng took out the prototype, he put the lockbox aside and threw the six prototype machines on the table, and the six prototype machines stopped after a few meters on the smooth conference table.
"What are these straight boards?" Xu Yong picked up a computer and took a look, and his first instinct was electronics.
The others were also full of doubts, and they all picked up the prototype and looked at it, and then gave it to the others.
"Press the button with the shorter section under the bezel and press and hold to power on." With a faint smile, Luo Sheng said: "This is an amazing work created by more than 7,000 engineers at the CΓ΄te d'Azur for more than 1,000 days and nights, which will change the world and redefine the concept of smartphones." β
What the?
The moment he heard Luo Sheng's words, all the participants in the audience were shocked, and Xu Yong immediately looked at the black straight board in his hand: "Boss, you told me that this thing is a smartphone?" β
Chad Hurley looked at the white model in his hand and said blankly, "What about the buttons?" How come there are only three buttons for a mobile phone? God, this must be a joke. β
Luo Sheng immediately asked, "Is it turned on?" β
When Chad Heli heard this, he immediately pressed and held a button with a short section of the frame, and at the same time, Luo Sheng took the sample machine in Xu Yong's hand and motioned to everyone: "Press this button......"
Everyone looked at Luo Sheng, only to see that the 4.0-inch small pitch-black screen appeared after waiting for a while, which was the logo of the Cote d'Azur company [Azure], and then the interface was presented, and everyone witnessed him tap the unlock symbol at the bottom of the screen with his index finger.
Luo Sheng pointed the screen at them, and everyone looked at the operation interface on the prototype with shocked expressions.
Desktop-level interface?
"Click on the icon to open the function, let's try it first." After Luo Sheng finished speaking, he gave the prototype in his hand to Xu Yong.
For the next period of time, everyone immediately stared around the six prototypes, David Sachs, Jack, Stallleman and others all looked at the prototype in Xu Yong's hand, and he gave David experience after operating for a while.
"God, this is a smartphone that can make a phone call? It simply subverted my concept of a smartphone, and a mobile phone can be made like this? David Sachs' icon on the screen dotted back and forth.
The conference room was full of noisy discussions, exclamations were endless, although it was the first contact, Luo Sheng did not give details on how to use it, but the CEOs present are also engineers, and everyone can really write code.
And this phone is inherently very simple and easy to use.
"It's like a mini version of the PC desktop...... Chad Hurley said in amazement, he experienced it for a while before he was snatched away by the rest of the army sitting next to him, all scrambling to play.
There is no doubt that they have fallen in love with the device as you can tell from their reactions.
After about five minutes, everyone had almost digested it, and after seeing that Luo Sheng was about to speak, everyone also put the equipment in again, and looked at the top boss in unison again.
"I guess in your minds, you should have guessed some, that's right, our Bluestar Technology's 'family bucket' should not only be able to be used on the PC, but also develop a mobile version of the application software to run on this device."
Speaking of this, Luo Sheng looked around at each of them, and continued in a very infectious tone: "Just imagine, how many mobile phone users are there in this world? Or a PC user? β
Does this need to be asked?
Luo Sheng picked up a prototype: "It is this small straight board, which will change the world and open up a new Internet era for mankind, Mobile Internet, mobile Internet era, and put the Internet in your pocket." β
Everyone's hearts were hot on the spot, even boiling.
"This device is based on Azure-C to give birth to the AOS system, the unofficial version has been quite perfect, and the software development kit has been improved, which has not yet been officially released, but Bluestar Technology can be the first to get it internally."
Speaking of this, Luo Sheng looked at everyone again: "This mobile terminal product will be announced at a press conference on September 27 this year, and it will be on sale on December 24." That said, we had less than four months left to develop the mobile app software, and my request was simple: the whole family bucket had to spell out the beta version before the press conference, and the official version by late November. β
When everyone heard this, they secretly complained in their hearts, and Yu Jun couldn't help but speak: "Mr. Luo, time must not be in time, our engineers don't know anything about Azure-C and AOS systems, well, even if it is a C-based kernel, it still takes a lot of time to understand, in ......"
Mr. Yu also wanted to speak and stopped.
They really don't know any news, not even Xu Yong, and the Cote d'Azur company's [Azure] plan is too good at keeping it secret.
Luo Sheng nodded: "The time is in a hurry, but it is not absolutely impossible, the engineers of the Cote d'Azur can temporarily borrow some of them to cooperate with the development, so that the speed can keep up." β
After a pause, Luo Sheng added: "Each major subsidiary will launch the corresponding application based on the AOS system, and the major subsidiaries will be divided into several development teams to develop at the same time, and the internal competition system will be adopted, and whichever development team wins will share a cash prize package of 100 million US dollars, which means that this time 1 billion US dollars will be taken, and 10 teams will receive a bonus package of 100 million US dollars each." β
Xu Yong, Yu Jun, David Sachs and others were all stunned for a while when they heard this, and they all secretly smacked their lips after coming back to their senses.
Luo Sheng's trick is simple and crude, and it can even be said that there is no technical content, but as the saying goes, there must be brave men under heavy rewards, and a development team can receive a full $100 million bonus package.
As long as you win from it, you can basically be financially free, and once this internal competition starts, you can't fight the rhythm of blood?
"It's decided, prepare as soon as possible, time is running out, and in addition, it must be kept secret, highly confidential, that's it, let's dismiss the meeting." Luo Sheng clapped his hands and said.
The CEOs of the major subsidiaries did not stay in the parent company too much, and the $100 million bonus package thrown out would definitely make the development team fight like chicken blood, which shows how much Luo Sheng attaches importance to this.
