Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Chapter 602: China's mobile phone environment

On July 5, Meng Qian was invited to attend the press conference of Vientiane Technology.

"I heard that Motorola also shut down the WiMAX division?" Meng Qian came to sit with Brang Sanjee.

Brown responded with a wry smile, "Don't insist on going in the wrong direction. This is what Mr. Meng told me before. The future of WiMAX can be seen from the global reaction after Intel shut down WiMAX, let alone Dafeng Group. It is unreasonable to insist on such detailed technical science popularization.”

"So what is Motorola's next key development direction?"

"smart phone."

The two looked at each other tacitly, "What does Mr. Brown think of the Vientiane system and the Android system now?"

"To be honest, there were a lot of problems in the systems on both sides last year. Android's system last year received a lot of criticism in Omi, and it was called the most failed mobile phone system.

Similarly, the Vientiane system is not doing well there. If it weren't for Huaxia's huge market base and the market atmosphere created by Hongmeng, the Vientiane manufacturers might not be able to sell much.

However, we are still very clear in our hearts that there will be many problems when a brand-new system comes out. The most important thing is that the second-generation system after a year of market experiment will be crucial, which is why we came here s reason. "

Meng Qian nodded in agreement, "Hongmeng 1.0 also encountered a lot of doubts at that time, do you want to predict the performance of Vientiane 2.0?"

Sangji answered subconsciously, "The performance of Huaxia companies in recent years has always been amazing. Now I am used to the products of Huaxia companies and don't make predictions."

The three of them looked at each other and smiled, and the host began to warm up the stage.

At the press conference, the chief technology officer of Vientiane Technology introduced the Vientiane 2.0 system to everyone in detail. The system has been fully optimized and more than 100 new functions have been added.

Including support for the latest flash, support for WiFi hotspots, support for front-facing cameras, create a brand new software store interface, have a real-time update recommendation mechanism, scoring mechanism and added an automatic update function, etc.

Through the most direct operation demonstration on site, it can be seen that Vientiane 2.0 has indeed been greatly optimized, and it is not at the same level as Vientiane 1.0.

In addition to the system itself, there is another point of concern in this press conference, that is, the Vientiane system also launched a tablet computer system, which is unified with the mobile phone system.

The first hot topic after the press conference was that Chinese companies and American companies have chosen completely different directions. Netbooks VS Tablet PCs. There are more participants in this confrontation.

Another thing that has begun to show value is the interoperability between Hongmeng and Vientiane. Android and IOS cannot even achieve comprehensive functional interoperability with the core social software such as Fengxin, but the interoperability between Hongmeng and Vientiane is very good. good.

This virtually facilitates the common ecological development between the two systems.

Brown and Sanjay continued to stay in China for more than ten days after the Vientiane Technology conference. This decision actually showed some of their attitudes.

And the following week will be the press conference of various mobile phone brands in China. Everyone noticed two things in this press conference. The first is that several brands are expanding their product lines to cover high-end, high-end and low-end mobile phones. The second thing is that the market positioning of several brands is not same.

The first development conference was Huawei. The Ascend mobile phone launched by Huawei this time is divided into four grades: D, P, G, and Y. The market positioning of Huawei Ascend is mainly aimed at Europe, not China. Huawei has noticed that The anti-Mi sentiment in Europe over the years has also noticed the European market’s demand for more detailed product grades from high-end to low-end. In the end, Huawei did perform well in Europe.

People often ask why Huawei’s mobile phone conferences always go to Europe to develop conferences, because domestic users did not accept Huawei’s mobile phones very well in the early years, and Huawei’s mobile phones were developed in the European market in the early days.

For example, Poland, which is jokingly called a Huawei contracting country, is full of Huawei advertisements, and Huawei cannot achieve such advertising influence in China.

The second development conference was ZTE. Like the previous life, ZTE adopted the development strategy of "winning by quantity", and launched 12 mobile phones in just one conference.

In 2009, ZTE launched more than 40 3G terminal products, becoming the number one 3G brand in China, the number one mobile phone manufacturer in China, and the sixth largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world.

With the help of huge productivity, ZTE's mobile phones have been out of China since 2009, and the market is positioned in the whole of Asia.

As for Meizu and Coolpad, this year is still steady, each launched three mobile phones, and the market positioning is currently in the country.

After the conferences of the four cooperative brands of Vientiane Technology, some other brands of mobile phones also held their own conferences.

OPPO launched the first smartphone equipped with the Vientiane system. The OPPO R series was launched ahead of schedule, featuring ultra-thin, camera and cost-effective.

Transsion, the king of Africa, also launched Infinix, the first smart phone using the Vientiane system. In 2008, Transsion’s annual sales in Africa exceeded 10 million units. It is very popular in Africa. This year, Transsion predicts that its annual sales will reach 20 10,000 units, and smartphones equipped with the Vientiane system will help Transsion better seize the market.

Lenovo was not idle either, and launched the LePHONE mobile phone equipped with a universal system to enter the smart phone market.

On July 15th, a company named Xiaomi was founded in Yanjing Yingu Building. The founder Lei Xiaomi said that the future belongs to the mobile Internet.

On the 15th, Brown and Sanji communicated in the hotel's coffee shop, "Also as an open source system, Google is more inclined to make Android a popular meal, but it also uses Android to promote its own products.

On the contrary, Vientiane Technology, as an enterprise focused on building Vientiane systems, is actually an open system in the true sense. "

Brown raised doubts, "Then tell me, will Vientiane Technology be the same as Sun Micro, because it is difficult to make a profit with open source core products?"

Sanjay continued, "After the acquisition of JAVA by Dafeng Group, we can see the performance of JAVA during this period, so I have confidence in Vientiane Technology. At this press conference, we have also seen that Vientiane Technology has begun to look for profit points through services. .

In fact, there is one more thing I want to say here. It is now obvious that Vientiane Technology is closely following the development of the Hongmeng system, and many technologies and functions are imitating the Hongmeng system.

And Dafeng Group obviously intends to develop together with Vientiane Technology. After all, he can earn patent fees, and everyone's positioning is different, which is a mutually beneficial behavior.

But on Google's side, the current development of Android is still very chaotic. It can be said that it is not systematic. It is just using Google's influence to build its own ecology. "

"Then what do you think of the mobile phone system that Microsoft will launch at the end of the year? Recently, the board of directors is putting pressure on us again, hoping that our mobile phones can adopt Microsoft's mobile phone system."

"I just went to Microsoft for a survey some time ago. Compared with the survey I did with Dafeng Group last year, I'm really not very optimistic about Microsoft's mobile phone system now."

"And why?"

"The most fundamental problem is that the computer system and the mobile phone system of the Dafeng Group are two completely independent business divisions. The Dafeng Group has realized a core problem. The computer system and the mobile phone system are two different things.

However, Microsoft recruited a group of computer system developers to be responsible for the development of the mobile phone system and emphasized that the logic of the Windows system should be applied to the mobile phone system. This is a fatal mistake.

Another point is that Nokia has confirmed that it will cooperate with Microsoft, and now it is difficult for us to discuss cooperation with Microsoft. "

"Speaking of which." Brown took out his notebook and opened one of the pages, "This is the distribution map of smartphone cooperation. The current core partner of the Microsoft system is Nokia, and the core partner of the Android system is Samsung, HTC, Google's own Mobile phones, as well as our Motorola, and the current core partners of the Vientiane system are basically concentrated in the mobile phone brands of Huaxia and Neon Country.”

The two looked at the contents of the notebook and fell into deep thought. Sanjay spoke first, "It is not only the Vientiane system that is developing rapidly, but also Huaxia's mobile phone brands."

"That's true. Huaxia's entire industrial chain is developing, not just a certain link."

"Brown, I'm leaning towards the Vientiane system right now, and I think we need to hurry up and get into the Vientiane camp."

Brown showed embarrassment, "From a technical point of view, I am actually more inclined to the Vientiane system now, just because I am afraid that it will be difficult for the board of directors to accept our proposal."

"Before they didn't and didn't accept our choice of Android."

Brown couldn't help smiling, "That's right, let's go, let's go to Vientiane Technology again."
