Chapter 1004

When Tang Qing demonstrated his mobile phone to the second uncle.

The United States.

New York.

ERV's new headquarters.

ERV is now very rich.

At the end of last month, I bought the headquarters of a bankrupt technology company in the suburbs of New York. It covers a large area and has a distinctive architectural design. It was completed in the middle of this year. Unfortunately, ERV is cheaper.

At this point.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was a little tense.

Three days ago.

ERV sent an email to Google.

It is invited to participate in the mobile terminal operating system open software alliance initiated by ERV, which is an industry alliance initiated by Google in November next year. ERV made it one year ahead of schedule.

Last year.

Google acquired Android.

Prepare to develop mobile operating system.

It's not that they are far sighted, but according to Moore's law, they know that in the future, small and high-performance mobile devices will be popular, without operating system.

The PC operating system is dominated by Microsoft.

Google wants to make a popular operating system suitable for non PC end in the new industry.

Now we are in the process of intensive research and development.

I didn't expect that.

ERV will come out like this, it's completely to scrap the rhythm of Android.

In the face of Eric's dissatisfaction.

The soldier reasoned without changing his face.

"Mr. Eric, I invite you here to work together. It's not for you to question me. In the field of technology, the master is the teacher. There is no rule that if you do it, I can't do it

“。。。”

That makes sense.

Of course Eric knows.

It's just that I'm going to eat him before others. I'm really uncomfortable.

"Can I know your progress?" Asked Eric.

"No problem, of course. This is our schedule."

The soldier handed over a document. Eric Schmidt looked at it carefully and found that the system architecture, application management and various solutions were nearly perfect.

Many aspects are much faster than the current Android development.

That's the point.

With the strength of ERV, there is no need to cheat.

"What do you want to do?" Eric put down the file.

"We are ready to invite Google to join our Sirius system, abandon the research and development of Android system, and jointly formulate industry standards, so as to form complementarities and seize market share," the soldier said

"There are too many operating systems on the market now, and there will be more in the future. Microsoft, apple, Nokia, Motorola, Ali, Samsung... As long as they are manufacturers, they will certainly develop their own mobile device operating system. "

"Our ERV plan is to make Sirius the only one."

Finally, the warrior gives the target of Sirius.

Sirius.

The brightest star in the night sky.

This is also Tang Qing's expectation. There are many stars in the sky, but I am the brightest. Other stars make people not even interested in knowing their names. As for inviting Google, I mainly want to borrow its influence.

Otherwise.

Android is not dead.

Tang Qing is not interested in working with Google.

“。。。”

Eric didn't answer immediately. These are big questions. He thought for a long time and asked, "how do you know that your system will have an advantage? You can have a big family. Don't forget, no one wants to be constrained. "

The soldier immediately gave the answer: "small space, strong compatibility, security, stability, high program execution efficiency, high chip utilization, and most importantly - we will open source, and free."

The front is empty.

The last two.

That's the root cause of Android's dominance.

"What? Do you want open source? " Eric is surprised. It's free. It's a fart. At the beginning of Android design, Eric never thought about open source and free.

"Yes, nothing is easy to sell for free. As long as we open source, we will have natural advantages, free of charge, so that we are invincible. As long as we do a good job in compatibility and scalability, we are not afraid of anyone." The soldier said with a smile.

It's also apple.

To force Google to give up this interest.

At this point.

Eric was really frightened by the madness of the man in front of him.

"What are your plans?"

"We're working together on research and development. I heard that apple is about to release a smartphone, you know." The soldier mentioned another thing.

"I know." Eric nodded.

"After its release, I'm going to invite the major mobile phone manufacturers, chip manufacturers, operators and so on to jointly promote our products. I don't think we need to fight on this issue," the soldier saidHands crossed.

Eric frowned.

People in front of you are right.

It's not a wise move to fight against ERV. Even if you don't agree, people will do it. Open source and free. In this way, there will be no room for charging in the whole market.

Unless it's mandatory, just like apple.

As for Android.

It can only be used by its own company and become a niche system.

"I'll go back and think about it." Eric looks up.

"Well, I hope you can make a decision as soon as possible. Otherwise, we've finished all the architecture and details, and Android has no value at all. Then don't say I'm mercenary." The soldier reminded.

"OK," Eric said.

Get out of the ERV.

Eric immediately called to apply for a board meeting. Such an important matter almost ruined Android, which they had placed high hopes on. They had to inform the board of directors.

。。。

“。。。 That's what happened. ERV wants to invite us to join their Sirius system. " Eric reported in detail what he said to the soldier and the document he saw.

"Eric, what do you think?" Asked the chairman.

Eric said: "I think we can consider that we develop the operating system for our own mobile phones. If it can be accepted by the public, it will be meaningless if it becomes a niche system."

"Open source, free. When did ERV become so generous?" In their impression, ERV is a very calculating company and a very profitable, free system. It's really strange.

Eric: "he said it was to grab market share."

"Can ERV's Sirius surpass our Android?" Asked the vice chairman.

Eric said: "I think so. From the very beginning, ERV has been a company with strong technical strength. It has made remarkable achievements in the field of optimization algorithm, has great vision, and has mastered the upstream arm company of microprocessor. It has mature software development experience."

"All in all, we have a very low victory rate for Andrew."

“。。。” Eric's comments are to the point.

Google is very proud of itself.

But it is not invincible. The technical strength of ERV has been recognized by the industry. Some people have guessed that it is ERV that can compete with Microsoft in software technology.

Because the complexity of "fire of war" is not much worse than the operating system.

In half an hour.

After a heated discussion.

Google's board of directors unanimously passed a resolution to merge Android project into Sirius project and strive for more "ownership". Although it is free and open source, there are not many hidden benefits brought by industry standards.

Finally.

Eric sighed.

The enemy is too powerful and too rogue.

。。。

The next day.

Morning.

Google and ERV signed an agreement.

The two sides cooperated to set up "Sirius system company", led by ERV and joined by Google's Android team as a whole to jointly develop the mobile operating system and strive to produce the first version of the finished product as soon as possible.

When it's time.

Then invite major companies to join the open systems alliance.

I'm going to circle it first.

At the same time.

There are also results from Qualcomm.

Qualcomm spent US $500 million on the exclusive license of the chip, and paid US $4.3 to the warrior control company for each chip produced, because many new "implementation methods" are used on the chip.

At the same time.

The two companies have also established a strategic partnership, with $1.7 billion, accounting for 20% of the company's shares, to jointly develop next-generation chips.

Qualcomm is confident.

We are ready to take this opportunity to completely establish its position as the leader of microprocessors.

So far.

Tang Qing's smartphone layout has entered a new stage.

From arm, the most upstream architecture of microprocessors, to a new generation of mobile phone chips, from the operating system to various components, it paves the way for the "reasonable emergence" of mobile phones.
