Chapter 298： Short message

After successfully completing the mission in Brazil, Bao Zixuan and Wu Guangzheng separated and returned directly to the United States. The Brazilian auto factory project has been implemented, and a professional team will follow up. We have also completed preliminary negotiations on engine supply with Embraer. Although we have not received a penny, we can only focus on opening the market.

The Black Cloud Aerodynamics Department needs the cooperation of Embraer to obtain the real test flight data, and then obtain the aviation flight airworthiness certificate. Only in this way can the Black Cloud Engine fly over the world.

There is another reason for Bao Zixuan to return to the United States, after several months of trying. Yule-Engel has led the team to overcome the technical barrier of mobile phone text messages, and now Black Cloud mobile phones can send text messages to each other. It's a remarkable achievement, especially in this day and age.

SMS: Refers to text or digital messages that you can send and receive directly on your mobile phone. In this era, it is definitely an existence that belongs to the Arabian Nights, but it is only an innovation of ideas, and there is not much difficulty in technology. Especially for the elites who came from Bell Labs.

Bao Zixuan plans to upgrade the mobile phone once a year, and position the mobile phone department as the most important department of the company. All resources will be given priority, and a professional team of lawyers will serve for a long time. At present, Heiyun has more than 200,000 employees, and the mobile phone department has about 2,000 employees. However, 1,800 of the 2,000 people belong to R&D personnel, and the rest are administrative personnel to cooperate with R&D.

It can be said that the research and development strength alone is absolutely arrogant, and other companies have not paid much attention to the role of basic patents. Because the royalties charged by Baozixuan and Motorola are still relatively low, this is also the reason why other manufacturers feel that their own research and development is not cost-effective. However, when one thinks that Nokia, a down-to-earth aristocrat in later generations, can actually receive 5 billion US dollars in basic patent usage fees every year, and Qualcomm has charged a huge Qualcomm tax, which shows the importance of basic patents.

Back at the Black Cloud R&D Center in Cambridge, I saw Yule Engel debugging the equipment. Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Yuer, how is our new mobile phone ready?"

Yul-Engel has a habit of disliking others to disturb him at work. Bao Zixuan was also too excited to forget this rule, but now he knew it was too late. Yul-Engel was furious and wanted to scold someone, but when he saw that it was Bao Zixuan, he controlled his emotions.

Seeing the old man's appearance, Bao Zixuan quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I'm too excited, but it ruined your thinking."

For these top scientists, if they want to make people work well, it is not enough to just give them money. It is necessary to give them enough respect. This boss is tired enough, but for the sake of future happiness, he can only follow their temper now.

Hearing that the boss apologized to him made Yul-Engel feel better. He is not a completely unreasonable monster, and sometimes he still has to give the boss enough face, otherwise he will be excluded from his descendants.

Yul-Engel: "It's nothing, it's just a little distraction for a while. But boss, our new mobile phone has been developed, and all the technical indicators can meet the requirements. The most important thing is that the SMS service has been opened, and you can send text messages at any time. "

Bao Zixuan: "Then what about the upgrade of old mobile phones!"

Yule Engel: "Our old mobile phones can be upgraded in the Heiyun mobile phone store, as long as there is a computer connected to a data cable. But after all, it is the first generation product, which can only save 32 text messages. The phone can hold 64 text messages."

At the beginning of the design of the Heiyun generation mobile phone, the problem of upgrading with an external connection was considered, but the R&D personnel did not understand it at that time. After all, this would add a lot of cost, and it was a useless design at the time. Now it seems that the boss is far-sighted and able to think about all issues in advance.

Bao Zixuan: "It doesn't matter, we just need to guarantee my technical advantages and how well we develop other functions of the mobile phone. For basic patent technology patents to be the best, as long as you can meet my requirements, how much do you need? R&D funding is available.”

Yule Engel said with a smile: "Boss, I have never seen you like this. Other investors are thinking about how to save money, but you are desperately giving us R&D funds. If Bell Labs has such support for me, I will never It will allow Martin to be the first to develop a mobile phone."

It seems that this old man is still very concerned about this matter, and it is estimated that he will never let it go in this life.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Yuer, sometimes letting go is the most important thing, Heiyun mobile phone is now stronger than Motorola, and this is all your credit. Without you leading this team to continuously develop new technologies behind, Heiyun The sales and reputation of mobile phones will not be so good!"

Yul Engel: "I know, but boss, sometimes it's really hard to let go. But I think I'll try to develop something new, and I'm not like the father of mobile phones; I want to be remembered in other areas. ."

Bao Zixuan: "If you can think of it like this, it means that some have come out, but it's not thorough enough. How many texts can our SMS business send now, and how many languages ​​can we support."

Juer-Engel: "Theoretically, our text messages can support all the places where cell towers are sold, but some places don't need rain. So we just designed a version in the common language of the United Nations."

Bao Zixuan: "At present, it is indeed enough, but our aim is to satisfy all customers as much as possible. We must collect text information from various countries in the world, so that our mobile phones can meet the needs of people in any country in the world in the future."

Hearing this makes Yule Engel a little puzzled. After all, this will increase a lot of costs, but it will not be worth the benefits. However, the boss always has his reasons for doing things, at least not yet missed.

In fact, in Bao Zixuan's mind, no matter how much the cost is, he still needs to do it. Heiyun's reputation is not very big. After all, the establishment time is too short, and there is no background The brand needs continuous promotion and investment, and can not relax at all times. In the future, the Black Cloud mobile phone can be used in any country in the world in its own language, which is of great benefit to the promotion of the brand, and can also take the lead in terms of patents.

Juer-Engel: "I know the boss, but in this case we need to recruit a lot of scholars in language and writing."

Bao Zixuan: "This is your business, you just need to meet my requirements. Then tell me how much you need."

Hearing this, Yule Engel smiled and said, "I don't know if it's my luck or misfortune to meet a boss like you."

Bao Zixuan: "These things will be evaluated by future generations, but I am confident that you will work in Heiyun until you retire. I have built a university in Xiangjiang. If you are interested, you can teach where you want to be a department head. No problem."

Juer-Engel: "I think about it, I like to be with young people. But I worry about my family. After all, my wife is a university professor in the United States. I can't be so selfish, it's not my business."

Bao Zixuan: "You can have your wife with me, so that my school will have an excellent professor. You have to have confidence in me regarding salary and R&D investment."

Yul-Engel was excited when he heard that, this is a good time to make more money. Moreover, his wife is not very happy in the current school, and sometimes she has to pay for research and development by herself; she often asks him to donate money.

It is impossible for an excellent university professor to resign in a short period of time. That is irresponsible to the students. Bao Zixuan has now arranged for staff to search for teachers all over the world to prepare for the start of next year's school. After all, there are no excellent teachers who can't recruit good students, let alone the quality of teaching.
