Chapter Seventy-Eight: Smartphone Operating Systems

"Venture capital?" He knows that the legends of those companies in the IT industry have survived the first round of elimination because of venture capital, and the advantage of venture capital is that it only depends on whether a certain company has a future, and then decides whether to invest. But venture capital will also be risky, in case you lure a wolf into the house, it will be a bad bird, if you just want to mix a wife and children hot kang head, it's okay, but you have also made a big one in China, you really can't expect a little money to be a little rich.

"Let me think about it again, now there are still funds in the country, and we will deal with it in another month or two." The party knows for the people that venture capital generally puts forward a series of requirements, and the most polite one will account for 30% of your company's shares. I remember when I was watching "Rough Waves", the protagonist company was half-crippled by a group of gangsters in the financial industry after it went public, and the impression was very deep. He didn't want to end up in a situation where he was beaten up half-heartedly, and finally be humiliated and conspicuously blasted out of the company he founded.

"Mr. Tang, you ...... again" Han Zhi hurriedly pleaded, but it was stopped as soon as he started.

"Needless to say, although it is in a state of loss now, if we persist for another half a year to a year, there will inevitably be a great development. Now the matter of venture capital, let's put it down first. The party slapped the board for the people, and everyone had nothing to say, but Han Zhi was a little stupid, and he stopped talking and left.

After leaving the office, Han Zhi sat on his office chair with an unhappy face and drank water sullenly. Zhao Yu'e, a new employee sitting across from him, looked at him for a long time and burst out laughing.

"Sister Zhao, what are you laughing at?" Han Zhi looked in the mirror and didn't notice anything unusual on his face. Zhao Yu'e is in her early forties, and she was tanned after a few years in India, but she has a straightforward and good-looking personality, so people call her Sister Zhao.

"I'm laughing at you, why are you angry?" Sister Zhao smiled and played with the ceramic cup in front of her.

"Well, that's the VC thing. Now there is a great opportunity for the development of the company, but Mr. Tang didn't know that he thought it yesterday, so why didn't he agree. Venture capital comes in, at most a little share, but the company will go up all of a sudden by taking advantage of the east wind. Han Zhi turned on the computer and replied while receiving emails.

"Come, I just flew a report for you, you can collect it." Sister Zhao passed the book and sent a DOC document, "You are a fan of the parties, and the company's equity is a very sensitive matter." Our manager, technically, did not say, when it comes to proficient professional knowledge, who is comparable to these people in our company? ”

Speaking of this, Sister Zhao stood up, closed the glass door on the side, and then pulled her chair over and approached Han Zhi, "But he is not very familiar with how to run a company, which means that he came here to run this business entirely because of the support of his family." I have checked, last year there was a bad ** incident in the country, a husband and wife were killed, they were mining enterprises, and it is said that there are other sources of income. Do you know who those two are? ”

"Who?" Han Zhizhen hadn't heard of it, and asked curiously.

"It's our boss's parents!" Sister Zhao lowered her voice.

"Ahh Could it be said? Han Zhi was taken aback, he really didn't know about it.

"He also has an older sister, and the relationship between the sister and brother is particularly stiff, and the two sides have been in conflict again and again when their parents are not buried, and they are divided over their parents' property." Sister Zhao shook her head, looking very sad, "I have a classmate's husband, and Tang is always a fellow countryman, and everyone in their local area knows about this file." ”

"Sister, what do you mean?" Han Zhi's mind was spinning, he had been busy with technology in the past and cared less about this aspect.

"The eldest sister advises you, don't get involved in this matter, our Mr. Tang himself won't return to China to fight the world here, it's definitely not that he doesn't want to, but he can't go back. In addition, my classmate's husband said that they had formed a mining group in the local area a long time ago, and Mr. Tang's parents were not from the same faction as the current head of the group, so they were *killed. And Mr. Tang's sister married the younger brother of a general who is a member of the group's head faction, and their sister and brother have long been insoluble. Where did Mr. Tang's money come from? Surely it wasn't earned by him, is it possible that there is no one else to support it? ”

After Zhao Yu'e finished speaking, she patted Han Zhi on the shoulder and sat back in her place. Han Zhi only understood what Sister Zhao meant at this time, and felt regret for a while that he had actually pulled into the core interests of the boss. Although Tang Menglong has good skills, his business level is average, and he can keep investing money, there must be a faction supporting him. I stupidly rushed up and shouted about some venture capital, I wonder if Tang Menglong will think that he is an undercover agent! Thinking of this, Han Zhi, who originally felt that he was the number two person in the company, sweated on his back. ,

The boss of the company, Dang Weimin, did not realize that he had simply rejected the venture capital, and actually scared one of his subordinates into sweat, and now he is busy researching new development areas.

After 2005, the mobile phone industry has developed to a new stage, that is, the era of smart phones. A series of smartphones represented by the Symbian system, relying on Nokia's vigorous touting, gradually expanded their market share, so for a period of time, models represented by the N73 became popular.

BUT AFTER NOKIA REACHED THE PEAK OF ITS GLORY, IT ENCOUNTERED TWO SMACKS SUCCESSIVELY, THE FIRST OF WHICH WAS PLAYED BY APPLE, AND AFTER APPLE LAUNCHED THE IPHONE, IT WAS TOUTED BY BOTH THE MARKET AND REVIEWS, AND THE SALES TOOK THE LEAD. THE COMRADES WHO BOUGHT THE IPHONE SAID THAT COMPARED WITH THE IPHONE, NOKIA'S SYMBIAN IS TOO MUCH LIKE A RUSTIC COUNTRY BOY.

The other stick is that Google finally stretched out his fangs and began to prepare to grab some meat from this industry, and at the end of 2007, it launched a fully open Android system, and began to encroach on NOKIA's territory little by little.

BUT AT THE BEGINNING OF 2009, APPLE'S IPHONE PLATFORM WAS VERY SINGLE, AND ALTHOUGH THE ANDROID SYSTEM HAD BEEN TEMPORARILY REVEALED, MANY HEAVYWEIGHT MANUFACTURERS WERE STILL WAITING. However, Taiwan's MediaTek as the representative of the copycat machine is in vogue, and the streets are full of copycat machines with eight horns "above the moon".

The party for the people has long been optimistic about the cake of the smartphone operating system, and he can generate a graphical operation interface across business platforms and produce a mobile phone operation platform, and there is no technical problem. And with the help of the super host, it will definitely be able to achieve a better interface table under the same hardware configuration. WITH LINUX AS THE CORE TECHNOLOGY, THE ANDROID SYSTEM HAS UNDOUBTEDLY MADE A GOOD START FOR THE NEW PRODUCTS OF THE PARTY AND THE PEOPLE, AND MANY COMPANIES HAVE NOTICED THIS OPEN MOBILE PHONE PLATFORM.

Now is the time to develop a new product, after pondering, the party for the people initially named this product "Gandharva", which means Gandharva in Chinese, the spirit with golden wings in Hindu mythology, half human and half bird, and a musician in the heavenly realm.

He wanted his product to be as elegant and noble as that wonderful deity. But in the world of fallout, the prototype of this product does not exist, probably because of the war, all the small electronic instruments are designed with a very rudimentary interface, presumably to save power and better resist violent impacts.

The prototype of the mobile phone operating system such as the Android system can be brought into the super host for analysis and work, and the interface design can be carried out in accordance with the style of OpenWindows that has been developed, and these tasks can be completed by relying on the host, which is a relatively simple thing. But for the feel of use, ease of use, super hosts can't help much, they are simply distributed according to the principle of ergonomics, so that it is easier to use but the interface is not necessarily gorgeous, and the reason why the previous OpenWindows can expand rapidly, is not unrelated to its gorgeous interface. However, there is no ready-made mode available for the version on the phone, and a lot of manual processing has to be done again.

"I'll have to count on my staff." Dang Weimin looked at the busy employees outside and made up his mind. In any case, as a leader, you can't just be a programmer and after-sales service personnel. If we succeed in developing it this time, the company will mature on its own. You can do the most important part of it, such as the core architecture and the important operational parts, and the rest will be done by these Indian IT workers.
