Chapter 406 Responses from all parties, conflict broke out

In the eyes of some world-renowned giant technology companies in the West, Bolang, a Chinese company, is very aggressive and aggressive.

Reckless.

passionate.

passion.

impulse.

not afraid.

The head is swell.

Wait, wait, any word related to impulsiveness can be applied to Bolangtou.

That kind of covetousness and covetousness towards the back wave and the front wave seems to be engraved in Bo Lang's bones.

These well-known giant companies include Apple, Google, Microsoft, Twitter, Facebook, etc.

Generally, as long as there is a competitive incident in the business that triggers public opinion, don't think about it, first ask if Bolang has launched a new business.

The present is an exception.

Apple headquarters.

As early as 7 o'clock in the evening before, when the opening press conference of the "Bolang Research" Global Conference began, Senior Vice President Jeffrey and others had already paid attention.

According to the analysis, Bolang will definitely release terminal products.

Sure enough, the iPad benchmarking product was released at the beginning. This time, almost all global prices are benchmarking. From the perspective of product strength, it is obviously capable of competing with the iPad.

In Jeffrey's view, the limited business strategy is not very good when used alone. Even if a lot of new features have been added to the star tablet system introduced in Bolang's simple and rude, but with the new system, the gimmicks are full.

However, this terminal product itself is not the focus, and the sales volume is limited compared to mobile phones.

The more important thing is the ecological tendency of the product series.

Although these key multi-terminal synergy features that should have been featured in the book have been briefly taken over by Bolang, the brand power established by Xinghai and the subsequent promotion will be favored by consumers sooner or later.

What is more important is the self-developed nature of the star system.

More importantly, Bolang has invested and made breakthroughs in the most upstream material direction!

More importantly, Bolang actually completed the independent architecture design on the ARM solution in a short period of time. This terrible scientific research investment and output capacity has undoubtedly posed some threats to Apple's status.

So, after the opening press conference of "Bolang Research", at around 9 p.m., CEO Tim also came to the company.

"Although we have never underestimated Bolang Terminal since the Xinghai series products were released by Bolang Terminal, this level of attention is still not enough."

Tim starts off by setting the tone.

"This company is full of aggressiveness and aggression. The founder's control is amazing, and the investment in research and development is shocking. We need to pay more attention and treat it more prudently."

After the voice fell, someone quickly answered: "Scode's new plug-in Copilot will further attract developers to gather and use, and will accelerate the popularization and diffusion of Starlight, a new language. This is what I think needs to be paid attention to."

Relevant personnel on the product line also expressed their opinions: "I think whether it is the self-developed system or the further self-developed chips, it shows that Bolang Terminal has already aimed at the development of the big ecology, which is highly consistent with our development route. It will lead to greater conflict."

"It is worth noting that although the Shenlong M1 chip uses a 40nm process, the official CPU performance and energy consumption ratio has reached a very exaggerated level, and the single-core performance has also greatly exceeded our previous generation chip A6. The architectural design should be excellent, maybe even better than our next A7."

"It is basically certain that Bolang once contracted TSMC's 28nm production line. With the advantage of reduced power consumption brought about by more advanced processes, Bolang may try to further improve performance, and the continuous performance will also look better."

"The application vertical ecology of Bolang Group will also bring better product power to Xinghai series products."

Jeffrey finally took over the topic: "It's a real problem. If we don't have a good solution, the Xinghai series of terminal products will subvert the iPhone series and redefine the concept of a new smart era."

"My consideration is that the swift language should be announced at the upcoming WWDC."

"And after the release of Stars2.0, almost all the new features of iOS7 have lost their freshness. I think there should be more new features for the release of iOS7."

"It is worth noting that the development of new features of the graphical interface of the mobile operating system has become less and less, and tends to be homogeneous. The completeness of the ecology and the experience it brings will become the focus of differentiation."

The meaning of Jeffrey's last sentence is still pointing out that Bolang Group's application vertical ecology has become the biggest killer after the smartphone industry gradually has no new tricks.

They are standing on Apple's platform, and they still see far away.

In fact, after the concept of full-screen smartphones, mobile phone manufacturers finally lost their gimmicks, and their annual conferences were all focused on... describing the exaggerated but insignificant experience improvement of the camera.

There are even more and more things that are regarded as gimmicks by mobile phone manufacturers, and consumers are not interested at all, including the amazing voice assistants that are now being used less and less.

As for what to take pictures and this and that, it has never been the main thing used by the vast majority of users, which is fully reflected in the subsequent screen usage time.

In the end, there is only one thing that can make consumers insist on choosing the same brand and show differentiation: the application ecology.

This is also the first step for Bo Lang under the helm of Wen Liang.

Listening to everyone's speech, Tim was also very embarrassed.

It took several years for the pioneers in the industry to develop the route, but in the hands of late-comer players who have enough strength and are willing to invest, they can catch up in a few months.

Because... everyone is an integrated player in the supply chain.

The final point of differentiation lies in the software.

It's so hard to die, since the day the star system officially appeared on the overseas network, it has been playing against iOS.

"The swift language can be released in advance, and some new differentiated features can be arranged to go online, but our focus should be on the autumn conference." Tim quickly made a decision.

Jeffrey reminded: "Bolang is likely to grab a little bit and release it ahead of us, just like this developer conference."

"There are still a few months, so make more preparations!"

"We... have no way of knowing exactly what breakthroughs Xinghai's next-generation products will make."

"why?"

"Bolang Terminal has not sourced components for a long time, nor handed them over to third-party OEMs. They have a great control over the supply chain because they hold shares and hold shares."

"shit!"

Tim couldn't help cursing.

This opponent is really a headache.

Bolang doesn't make sense at all in many strategies.

For example, on the 24th of last month local time, Apple announced that this year’s WWDC will be held on June 6th local time. day.

In terms of competing for gimmicks and selling points, Bolang is simply unreasonable.

When the Xinghai 1 was released, because it was the first generation, it took advantage of the latecomer advantage and hammered the iPhone 5 in all aspects.

After a certain amount of accumulation, the developer conference was held in front of it immediately, which directly led to the fact that many of Apple's gimmicks cannot be used now.

Now Apple is embarrassing.

On the one hand, selling hardware products is the core of revenue, but they are not willing to launch a new generation of iPhones at WWDC.

This timing is very immature, and it will definitely be used by the Bolang terminal to continue to gain the advantage of being a latecomer.

On the other hand, they don't want to release a new generation of Xinghai mobile phones and iPhones later than Bolang Terminal, because this time the products definitely need to grab selling points.

But the Bolang terminal is very doggy and can endure.

I don't care about the time of the year at all, let alone the reputation.

However, the organization ability is still excellent, no matter how short the time is, the press conference can be held beautifully.

Generally speaking, this kind of industry shit-stirring stick will be targeted by the whole industry, but Bolang doesn't seem to consider this issue at all.

…………

In addition to Apple, which was clearly regarded as a challenger by Bolang Terminal, its management had headaches from the beginning of the press conference, and there were more companies that had headaches on Aramco's side.

Such as Microsoft.

Although Bolang has not had any business overlap with Microsoft so far, Microsoft still has a headache ahead of time.

Because Bolang Terminal has clearly launched a desktop system.

Moreover, Bolang clearly mentioned that the star core has been donated to some important units in China, which basically means that Microsoft will lose a large part of its interests in China.

The vast majority of ordinary users install pirated Windows systems after buying desktop computers, and even notebooks will also be installed with pirated Windows flagship series.

This is actually a clever business strategy for Microsoft.

Because allowing the proliferation of pirated systems in China will make all Chinese companies that want to build their own operating systems lose their way.

It's very simple.

Windows has a complete ecology and strong compatibility. Ordinary users are not held accountable for using pirated versions. Is there any reason to use another operating system?
This is one of them.

Second, it is a big project to develop and maintain the operating system independently. This is not a graphical interface package on Linux. It is really a massive project attempt. How can it be supported if it is free?

This is also an important reason why China has never been able to develop its own operating system during the years when Microsoft went from DOS to XP.

In the early days, all you could think of was Sinicized DOS, Hanka, etc...

The amount of work is too big after all.

Does Microsoft have any interest in China?
some.

It was so big that Microsoft did not dare to announce its revenue in China when it was crying poor, and it was so big that Ami would always account for nearly 50% of Microsoft's financial report.

Probably two aspects.

One is the income from bundled sales systems with PC manufacturers, that is, OEM income, but these bundled transactions have been completed overseas since 00 or even earlier.

Yes, the vast majority of people in China use pirated Windows, but no computer brand manufacturer will sell bare metal, even desktop computers, and now branded computers account for more than 80%!

Therefore, in fact, everyone has paid once when buying a computer.

The second is corporate revenue, with the focus on non-private units and large private companies.

For example, the Windows systems used by Bolang employees in their offices are all genuine. This is a commercial legal issue. The bigger the company, the harder it is to use pirated software. Once it is targeted, it will lose the lawsuit.

But... now things have changed.

Microsoft executives are not stupid, they know very well how perfect the tools of the star system are, not just the mobile ecology, but the official programming language and development environment!
Today, there is a faint de-Windows all over the world. In China, the official has obtained a self-developed, high-commercial system, which will definitely be replaced.

this means……

In the future, Microsoft may not have to cry poorly, and it is likely that there will be no revenue directly.

The Xingchen desktop system may not be able to solve the productivity problem, but it can solve the needs of many special scenarios. After all... it is just copying the software source code of the special scenario into Scode and compiling it again.

Scode supports common programming languages ​​such as C, Python, and Java.

This migration can be horribly simple.

Faced with this situation, a high-level executive at Microsoft sighed and said: "If we had determined the importance of the mobile phone system earlier, if we had realized that the NT kernel is more suitable than the CE kernel earlier..."

Bill: "...Need another reminder, we've missed the pie by at least $4000 billion."

If it is said that Bolang consumes a lot of cost and almost killed several bank managers, and the Scode launched includes the previous ecS development environment, which allows developers to seamlessly migrate applications to the star system platform. It is a rare level of obstacle.

Let me tell you a little interesting true story.

In 10 years, Microsoft changed the name of the mobile phone system and officially launched WP, ​​with inflated self-confidence.

On the Friday before the official launch of the system, Microsoft employees wearing Windows logo plaques escorted iPhone and BlackBerry 'hearses' through Microsoft's Redmond headquarters, and they did not hesitate to say that the arrival of WP7 will end All competition.

Yes, the real thing.

Compared with this, the competition of Chinese companies can really be said to be very subtle, which means that Bolang's overseas competition, especially the competition in the Aramco region, has been fully adopted and integrated.

And what was the result after that... WP7 is not easy to use and has not kept up with the times.

Then Microsoft felt that this was not possible, and simply wanted to build a large Microsoft ecosystem compatible with computers, tablets, and mobile phones in one step, and finally released WP12 in June 6, and changed from the CE kernel to the NT kernel.

The upshot of this is that WP7 users cannot upgrade to WP8.

The change of the kernel has brought a lot of compatibility issues and it cannot be upgraded online, which ultimately means abandoning WP7 users.

Another result of changing to the NT kernel is that after the upgrade of the WP system, developers almost have to modify the application at the rewrite level!

Moreover, applications written for WP8 are not compatible with WP7 systems!

Just say fuck it or not.

In order to allow developers to switch smoothly, Bolang has really done a lot of active compatibility work, actively adapting the calls of major programming languages ​​​​through a large number of compatibility packages for application interfaces.

It doesn't matter. Now, in order to better maintain the application ecology, a programming language has been specially developed.

Microsoft: I have a big business, so don't care about these details.

And now I'm starting to regret it.

There are a few things in WP, and no one pays attention to them.

Finally, Bill made a decision: "Get in touch with Tim."

…………

In addition to Apple and Microsoft, there is also Google, which is also a bit bad.

Google's view here is only one sentence:

"We need to complete the debugging of Android 4.4 faster. The open source of the star kernel may make Android lose more living space."

In the process of catching up with iOS, after the release of Android 4.0, Google thought it had stabilized.

Then the star system was born, and then it showed what is called a latecomer advantage.

The good situation of Android conquering cities and territories all over the world, with its increasing market share, came to an abrupt end, and it became a struggle to survive under the two mountains of iOS and Stars.

Compared with the experience, no one can compare with Android.

Of course, Google cannot let this development go. After all, a large part of Google's revenue comes from advertising revenue.

The necessary Google GMS in the international market can spread Google's business across every mobile terminal.

…………

Worse than Google is the downfall of Twitter and Facebook.

They have all received hints from Aramco's upper management before, and highly suspect that the star system is a new system independently developed and should not support its ecological expansion.

And, sometimes all it takes is doubting.

It is a pity that both Twitter and Facebook have chosen to cooperate under the confrontation of the capital market.

Now the scene is up and down.

Because it's really hard to remove Twitter and Facebook from Stars Apps now.

The international version of Little Orange Book and the international version of QQ are eagerly waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

In the past two months or so, the expansion of BTI has been quite astonishing, with $15 billion thrown down, no kidding.

…………

Plus, Samsung sucks too.

At this moment, the display department under Samsung Electronics under Samsung is talking about it intensely.

"Is the material presented in the video analyzable?"

"The preliminary results have been basically analyzed. Judging from the demonstration, the main material is indeed excellent. This is probably displayed by Bolang on purpose. The pixels of the video are very high and can be distinguished."

"What about the horizontal comparison results?"

"Bolang's official data is basically reliable."

"Are we going to try to cooperate?"

"..."

Samsung is actually very proud. They are very conscious of being Ami's dog.

Now this scene, they are naturally upset.

…………

Who is the worst...

On the morning of the 19th, US Western Time, Guan Hai learned of all the changes that happened last night.

The staff expressed some views: "We need to consider controlling Bolang in all aspects."

"According to the latest information we have collected through Prism, it is basically certain that Bolang has invested more than [-] billion yuan in the semiconductor industry in the past six months, and its main partners are universities."

"In addition, Bolang is already very strong."

Guan Hai pondered for a while: "Submit a detailed document."

…………

While countless people around the world are having sleepless nights, discussing and discussing countermeasures, our President Wen is intensively surfing overseas networks.

realDT: "Bolang is a company that needs to be controlled and must be resisted! I think it will affect the interests of our people!!!"

realGM: "Stop yelling, stop yelling, if you have the ability to be the boss first! I'm waiting! I really hate your behavior of only spamming and no action. I need action!! you know?"

realDT: "Fuck! Fuck!!! I swear I'm going to find you!"

realGM: "Incompetent and furious again, is it okay to look like a rich man? What if you find me? You can't beat me."

realDT: "I challenge you!"

realGM: "At your age, you can't bear this, and I can't afford it either."

realDT: "OK, I've decided to become the boss! In the past six months, your words have successfully inspired my determination..."

realGM: "I'll donate to you, 1 cent is enough."

In fact, since 12, there is no need to believe even a single punctuation mark in DT's comments on the Internet. His public statements are all purposeful.

For example, this time, taking advantage of the trend, he dumped the blame for his re-employment to the GM.

But... What's interesting is that the follow-up conflict about Bolang's press conference broke out first at the level of public opinion.

Because both DT and GM have fans on the Internet...
