Chapter 425 ready to go

Now, there are only a few map providers that can provide global detailed maps to global users. Apart from a few large companies, most of the companies that provide maps as their core business have strong regional characteristics. Most of them can only provide maps of one country. Compared with global maps, they are much weaker. This kind of map supplier is not international at all Stage.

There are also copyright problems in maps, and only a few companies are able to conduct detailed mapping of global maps. Moreover, the updating of maps around the world is also a huge amount of work, which can be done by non ordinary companies. If Google, for example, uses satellites to take satellite photos of the global surface, it is only possible to get a general idea However, if you want to go into details about the name of every street, every building, every bridge, every intersection and so on, you need extremely accurate data to support.

Zhang Yunfeng does not have a mapping team. If we really enrich the map in the global scope, I'm afraid that the team alone will need to build for a long time. Therefore, Zhang Yunfeng came up with a opportunistic way, which is to let the second child directly take out the 4D map of the future mapping.

However, there is a big problem. The future 4D map was jointly developed by Google and several other companies ten years later. It is detailed to every building in medium and large cities, even every building has its own 4D simulation map. Although it is very advanced, the problem is that there are some buildings that haven't appeared yet. Ten years ago If we take this kind of map out directly, I'm afraid the whole world will be shocked. Maybe a company in the United States is planning to build a skyscraper in New York next year, and the design drawing of this skyscraper has been finalized, but it's still in the confidential stage. As soon as Dongchen releases the 4D map, they will be Mark out the skyscrapers exactly.

However, this doesn't mean that 4D map can't be used. In this set of 4D map, there are very detailed data, and the completion time of each building and each road is marked in detail. Zhang Yunfeng then orders Xiaoer to say, "Xiaoer, you need to modify this set of 4D map as soon as possible, and use 4D map to compare it with the latest map Once there is controversial content, such as some buildings on the latest map has not appeared, then immediately modify it to ensure that our set of 4D map can achieve real-time

Xiaoer said with a smile: "this is simple. It's OK to directly invade the Municipal Archives of every country or even every city or region. As for those underdeveloped countries, we can also filter the 4D map according to the existing other maps. If there are differences between the two, we can refer to the existing other maps to change the 4D map."

Zhang Yunfeng nodded and said, "how much capacity does it take to complete the whole 4D map of the world?"

"If it's really the highest level of detail, it will take at least a few hundred TBS, but we don't need to try to implant all the maps into our local hardware. The best way is to use the cloud mode, so that users can directly receive map data from the cloud when they need to retrieve the map of an area."

With that, Xiaoer added: "even if the cloud receives data, users can choose different modes. For example, 4D map is more of a gimmick. In common use, basically flat map is enough. Therefore, users do not need to download 4D map from the cloud for navigation services. 4D, the main purpose, is to have sufficient bandwidth to ensure In the case of a detailed understanding of the details of each city. Even simulate the feeling of three-dimensional travel in the city. "

Zhang Yunfeng smiled and praised: "you think about it very well. By the way, if we make 2D maps, what's the capacity of maps in the world?"

"About 1TB." Xiaoer said: "it doesn't matter. After all, most of the services we provide are just ground navigation services. Therefore, users don't need to download maps of the world in their own terminals. We can divide the map data by country or even by city. If users need to use maps of a certain region or several regions, Then, you can download the map data of these areas directly. "

"Our navigation service will be very accurate, so our map will also be very accurate. The navigation service can be accurate to a certain number, or even our navigation, and interactive services can also be carried out."

"What is interactive service?" Zhang asked

Xiaoer said with a smile: "for example, if you are in the suburb of Zhonghai City, and your sister-in-law is in a certain position in Zhonghai City, when you want to find her, she doesn't need to tell you the specific redundant address, just needs to transmit the coordinates of her location directly to you, and you can navigate according to the coordinates, or even accurately, the navigation tells you to arrive at the destination After that, you stop the car and push the door. My sister-in-law is standing right outside the door. "

Zhang Yunfeng immediately got excited, took off his mouth and said: "this idea is wonderful! Yes! Interaction! Now what you like most is the in-depth interactive function. Otherwise, wechat can't be so popular. If we really use this interactive function to serve for navigation, in the future, our users will not need to input detailed address in the terminal when navigating, and directly ask for a coordinate from the other party, and the navigation can accurately navigate according to the position of the other party, especially When the destination is not in the urban area, but in the suburbs or some underdeveloped node, the premise of navigation according to the address has been lost. However, the other party only needs to send their own coordinates to you, so you can immediately and clearly know where he is, even in the wilderness. "

"If so, our system is also of great significance to outdoor rescue. When we need help, we just need to present our coordinates to the other party and wait patiently for the other party's help. There will never be a situation where no one can be found!"! And our satellite positioning signal is much more powerful than GPS. As long as it is not in a few natural blind areas of nature, we can carry out positioning. "

Zhang Yunfeng is excited. If such a nearly all-around positioning system is finally built, all users in the world will give up the traditional GPS completely in the first moment of contact with it. Such a positioning system can maintain the leading position in the world for at least 50 years, and this positioning system will also completely affect human life, work and travel.

When Dongchen satellite was launched in succession all over the world, Zhang Yunfeng and Xiao Er have sorted out the 4D map of the world. However, this set of 4D map has not been released to the outside world. Dongchen is still short of the last three satellites to complete the global coverage. Once the last three satellites are launched, Dongchen will put Dongchen positioning system and Dongchen positioning terminal into the sky And the global 4D map of Dongchen will be released to the whole world at the same time. On that day, Dongchen will shock the world again.

The market value evaluation of Airbus has finally come to an end. The Europeans and Dongchen have reached a unified consensus, and Dongchen is not ambiguous. Zhang Yunfeng entrusts long Xiaoyue, who is buying special industries for Dongchen in Paris, to sign a purchase agreement with the Europeans in Paris. Dongchen, with 18 billion euros, purchases 100% of Airbus from EADS, This acquisition is the biggest single acquisition of China enterprises in Europe this year.

Although the world has long known that Dongchen is ready to buy Airbus, when Airbus is bought, the global media is still enthusiastic about this matter. They are not surprised at the completion of this acquisition, because they know that the prey that Dongchen is targeting has not escaped from Dongchen's hands. What they are really curious about is that Airbus is taken over by Dongchen What will be the next step after purchase? How long will Dongchen show the world a response.

after being wholly-owned by Dongchen, Airbus was renamed as Dongchen Aerospace Co., Ltd. and Dongchen Aviation Engineering Co., Ltd. were two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Dongchen. Zhang Yunfeng was not prepared to rub the two enterprises together. The foundation of Airbus in Europe was already very huge, so huge that he could not even move Airbus to China. Therefore, he decided to He will keep Airbus in Europe and his head office in France. He has absorbed almost all the previous frameworks of Airbus's employees, technicians, engineers, sales personnel, etc. but he has dismissed all the Airbus's R & D departments and left no one.

This is a move that makes the world feel that Dongchen has a plan in mind, Airbus technology, they don't want, Airbus backbone talents, they don't want.

However, Raymond had the idea of Airbus. After hearing about Dongchen's action, he quickly held a meeting at Boeing headquarters in Seattle. The meeting had only one theme: how to obtain the final residual value from Airbus.

For Boeing, all the hardware of Airbus is gone, but the software hasn't been eroded by Dongchen. Raymond said ambitiously at the meeting: "we should get all the intellectual property rights that we were interested in from Airbus at all costs. In addition, I hope our human resources can make the most of all the core of Airbus R & D department We will be able to combine the strengths of Boeing and Airbus to make our aircraft have better performance and stronger technology elements. "

Boeing executives have no opinions on this. In recent years, Boeing has made few breakthroughs in aircraft manufacturing. Before Dongchen, the situation of international civil aviation passenger aircraft has become very relaxed. The main models of Boeing and Airbus have been designed and produced more than 10 or 20 years ago. During this period, Airbus launched the models that are not practical The A380, Boeing also launched the Boeing 787 with many problems later, but there are only two core models on both sides, Boeing 737, 777, Airbus 320, 330.

If Boeing can absorb all Airbus software and combine them to take advantage of their advantages, it will certainly help Boeing's new model. It's as if one day BMW and Mercedes Benz merged. Mercedes Benz retained its strong performance, luxury and perfect ride experience, but also had BMW's sense of motion, control and fashion, as long as they combined It doesn't happen in the process of
