Chapter 1656

[PS: there will be two chapters later. I'll make them up for you today. It's written so that your hair is almost gone]

“wap”

This is a term that many post-90s have never heard of, and even many post-90s don't know, but it is really the initial understanding of post-90s about mobile Internet access.

So the question is, what is WAP?

In short, WAP is a communication protocol between the Internet and mobile devices. If users want to access the Internet through mobile devices, they must use WAP protocol.

To put it more simply, WAP is actually the protocol used by mobile phones to surf the Internet. Once WAP function is available, mobile phones can surf the Internet directly.

It can be imagined that when boss Jia held Daqian 6 in his hand and demonstrated to all the audience that he logged in to 51 search website through the screen of Daqian 6 mobile phone, he gave a great shock to all the audience.

This shock is unimaginable.

Although many people in the mobile phone industry know that mobile Internet technology has emerged, they did not expect that Daqian actually installed the WAP Internet function on Daqian 6, which caught the global mobile phone manufacturers by surprise.

On the screen of Daqian 6 mobile phone, the main business of 51 search is clearly displayed... Although it is due to the mobile phone screen, the whole web page is very deformed, and many pictures are almost absent.

But this is really no mistake in landing on the web page. Even boss Jia personally demonstrated the function of searching key information on the network by using 51 search.

Then, boss Jia announced that Daqian mobile phone and 51 search have reached a comprehensive strategic partnership. 51 search will launch a special WAP web page at the same time. This is a WAP web page specially designed to facilitate mobile browsing, which can make mobile phone users use 51 more easily and freely to search.

At the same time, 51 search will also synchronize the function of online 51 encyclopedia. According to boss Jia's description, this is a similar existence to online encyclopedia. 51 search employees have manually entered 300000 different noun encyclopedias. Most common things in the world can find answers on 51 encyclopedia.

However, this is not enough for the function of an online encyclopedia, so encyclopedia 51 will open the member editing function, and all certified members can add terms and explanations that have not been logged in Encyclopedia 51.

At the beginning, the audience did not know much about this function, and felt that this 51 encyclopedia seemed useless.

But when Daqian released a special promotional film, the protagonist in the promotional film was participating in an interview, an interview with his future father-in-law.

The interview seems to be an expert and scholar. His mouth is full of all kinds of proper nouns. Many words have never been heard of, which is obviously making trouble for the prospective son-in-law.

But he answered like a stream, and finally fully won the favor of his father-in-law, so that his father-in-law felt that his daughter had found a knowledgeable boyfriend and happily agreed to their relationship.

But at the end of the promotional film, it can be seen from the side that the daughter who seems to be playing with the mobile phone all the time is actually using 51 encyclopedia to search for various proper terms mentioned by her father-in-law, and then put the mobile phone where her boyfriend can see it, so that her boyfriend can answer her father-in-law like a stream.

This promotional video makes many people instantly understand the value of 51 encyclopedia. In this way, as long as there is a mobile phone with internet access, they can get the answer in an instant once they face any knowledge blind spot. This is the best encyclopedia in the world!

Of course, there are many videos demonstrating the various functions of mobile wap Internet access. Because boss Jia comes from later generations, he naturally knows how important the follow-up mobile network is and how integrated into life.

Therefore, these promotional videos of mobile network applications, with all the audience excited, have become particularly enthusiastic about a mobile phone that can surf the Internet.

Finally, after boss Jia's introduction, it was time to ask questions freely. As a result, the first person to get the right to ask questions was not a reporter, but a technology management news release from Nokia.

Originally, Nokia people came to the press conference and lost face when they said it. He shouldn't have asked questions, but he stood up because he had to ask Jia Yapeng some questions.

"Mr. Jia, did you make this WAP by yourself? Why has our whole industry association never heard about it? Has your WAP involved plagiarizing our WAP!!" the engineer asked angrily.

Of course he was angry.

Because mobile Internet access is not the genius creativity of boss Jia. In fact, since 1995, mobile network has been realized by various mobile phone manufacturers. However, all mobile phone manufacturers generally believe that in the era when computer network is not applicable enough, using mobile phone as a low-level screen to access the Internet is simply a fantasy.

Mobile Internet access will not have practical value in the next 20 years at least.

However, the mobile phone industry has made technical reserves. Historically, major mobile phone industries such as Motorola, Ericsson and Nokia established the WAP forum in 1997, and then in 1999, Nokia launched the world's first mobile phone with WAP function.

So from this point of view, it seems that the appearance of boss Jia has left WAP behind.

In fact, in another world, WAP appeared in 1997 because GSM network base stations were unified in the Jianghu at that time, and CDMA base stations had almost no sense of existence. Therefore, WAP can be used directly by GSM base stations with high universality.

However, in this era, CDMA was born ahead of time. Although GSM base stations also occupy most of the market, the total is about 60%. It is difficult for a WAP to meet the needs of all base stations.

Because of this, Nokia and other enterprises in the world are not very interested in WAP research and development, because in their view, even if WAP is developed, it is difficult to promote it globally.

However, by 1998, Nokia and other enterprises had realized this, so they also began to develop WAP and match various protocols.

In another world, WAP R & D and design were actually open. At that time, Motorola, Ericsson and Nokia jointly established the WAP forum, which was open to all people in the mobile phone industry around the world. The research and development progress of WAP was also completely open without any patent restrictions, so WAP easily ruled the whole world, All mobile phones use WAP to surf the Internet.

However, in this world, the three companies have a wary eye, that is, they want to hide WAP as their mace against thousands.

According to their original plan, their WAP mobile phones will be officially launched in 2001 and become the first batch of mobile phones with internet access function in the world. They are even required to authorize WAP patents and technologies to Daqian.

But I never expected that today, Daqian 6 mobile phone released the WAP function in advance!
