Chapter 343 Open Source
October 20th, Friday, Double Ninth Festival,
This festival has nothing to do with Chen Yang, but he has to take his wife to visit his parents.
Climbing high to pray for blessings, respect the elderly and worship ancestors during the Double Ninth Festival is of course a must.
It's just that Huang Shan and Professor Huang returned to China today, and he had to greet these two heroes before they could leave.
In the chairman's office, the two people who rushed over after putting away their luggage knocked on the door and came in. Chen Yang immediately greeted him, "Thank you for your hard work, hard work, this acquisition is a great success, and you two deserve a lot of credit!"
Huang Shan waved her hands with a fake smile on her face, "Mr. Chen, you're welcome. It all depends on your guidance."
Professor Huang, who was half a step behind her, had an excited look on his face. He could not tell the tiredness from flying for more than ten hours. He blushed and said, "I don't dare to take credit. It all depends on Mr. Chen's guidance and Mr. Huang himself."
, so that the acquisition can be successful.”
A domestic company actually acquired a mobile phone operating system with complete intellectual property rights, which made him unhappy.
Chen Yang smiled and raised his hand to signal, "Oh, we are all our own people, so there is no need to be so polite. Come, come, sit down, sit down and talk."
As he spoke, he walked to the sofa and sat down, making tea himself.
While making tea, Chen Yang asked with a smile, "Mr. Huang, are you all ready with the code? How long will it take to convert it into our own version?"
When it came to business, Professor Huang's face immediately became serious and said, "There is no problem with the code. With the secondary development of the system and hardware research and development, all added up, we can launch our own smartphone within a year at the latest."
"
"One year?"
Chen Yang put a cup of tea in front of him and said with a smile, "It's not bad. The 3G license should be officially launched in a year. With 3G technology, smartphones should have more prospects."
"Yes," Professor Huang tapped his fingers on the table twice and said, "I said that within one year, I also plan to directly use a 3G smartphone.
Without high-speed communication technology, this smartphone is no different from the computer ten years ago, or even worse. But if it can connect to the Internet and use developed high-speed wireless networks, the use of smartphones will be great,"
At this point, he hesitated for two seconds before saying, "It's just that there is competition between systems. If our system applications are not enough, or the installed capacity is insufficient, it may be difficult to compete with other systems.
compete,
I think Mr. Huang has also reported to you that Symbian currently has the largest installed base in the world, followed closely by Microsoft's wp and wm. Now Brother Gu has also developed Android and wants to come in and get involved. If we fail to respond well,
, if we don’t pay attention to it, when the 3G era comes and smart phones become popular, we may be in an embarrassing situation.
Either we develop corresponding programs in our system that are compatible with software from other systems, or we directly use other people's systems, but in this case, all our efforts this time will be in vain.
System competition cannot be ignored!"
Hearing this, Huang Shan, who was sitting opposite Chen Yang, sighed imperceptibly, then raised her pretty face and said to Chen Yang, "After I communicated with you last time, I also conveyed your thoughts to Mr. Huang.
, but Mr. Huang still firmly believes that even if Android emerges, Symbian will be the first to bear the brunt, but we must not ignore it.
Not only cannot it be ignored, but it must also be taken seriously, otherwise when the outcome is determined between the two, it will inevitably take advantage of the general trend to crush all opponents."
While she was gasping for air, Professor Huang immediately said, "The technology industry is like this. The winner takes all. Whoever can become the standard setter will be the biggest winner.
Indeed, Symbian should be the biggest headache with the emergence of Android, but after my understanding in the United States these days, neither Symbian nor WP have paid enough attention to the emergence of Android. What does this mean? "
Professor Huang said without the need for anyone else to answer, "This shows that after Android is launched on the market, it will not encounter opponents at all. Even if the version they just launched is not perfect, they will have enough time to improve it.
And Guge itself is a world-class Internet giant company, and its capital is far beyond what ordinary companies can match. In other words, if no one blocks it, Android will gradually win the market.
The only difference is the length of time,
But we are different. Palm OS is a mature system, but it has declined in recent years. If we try to re-promote this system, we will definitely face pressure from all aspects.
So I agree with what you said, let Android attract Symbian's attention first, but for the development of Palm OS system, in addition to our own research and development, we also need to attract a group of allies."
Chen Yang pursed his lips and thought for a while, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then asked, "What do you think?"
Huang Lao said so much in one breath, it was obvious that he already had a plan, it would be better to let him say it all in one breath.
“Open source!”
Professor Huang immediately said, "Android regards open source as its trump card, and we can do it too. Brother Gu is doing it in the United States, so we will do it in China. In China, we have natural geographical advantages. As long as we keep the basics, we will not be afraid of competing with anyone in the future."
compete."
Chen Yang scratched his head, raised two fingers, and said with a smile, "I have two questions. First, I remember you said before that there is no way out for a completely open source and free system, especially since security issues cannot be guaranteed. This
How to solve it?
Second, Brother Gu is a world-class Internet giant. They can win over a group of allies at any time, but we are just a rising star. Even in the eyes of some seniors, we have just had a bit of shit luck. Why should they let us?
Shall we take the lead?"
Professor Huang frowned slightly and said, "For the second question, I can't answer you for the time being. It's just that you can only have hope if you do some things. If you don't do them, there won't be any hope. After all, now we have
autonomous systems, which they don't have, and it's better to work with us than with a foreign company,
As for the first question, I think as long as we can do a good job in the secondary development of the system and add security protection software to it, we should be able to avoid the problem of being attacked."
Having said this, he couldn't help but raise his head and said, "Even if iPhone OS is completely closed source, there is no 100% guarantee that there will be no security problems. In fact, whether it is Android, iPhone OS, or Symbian, they are all
Developed based on an open source platform,
Android is based on Linux, iPhone OS is based on Unix, and Palm OS is also Linux. They come from the same source as Android, but they are optimized for mobile devices.
