Chapter 249: [The giants who are at peace with the status quo]

, The latest chapter in the latest global monopoly of technology!

According to reports, Google bought Android for only 50 million U.S. dollars, and Luo Sheng knew the impact of Android on Google and the technology industry more than a decade later. Google's acquisition of Android may be one of the most important M & A transactions in Silicon Valley history. The operating system brings Google two to three billion dollars of horror advertising revenue every year.

Although Luo Sheng was not able to acquire Android, he felt unfortunate, but he didn't hesitate about it.

Because Android cannot be acquired, Luo Sheng has already decided to take out some of the underlying designs from the AOS system, and then re-optimize the magic and change it to launch a new architecture open source operating system WOS system solution.

One hand is now leading the AOS closed-loop ecosystem of the world for at least five years, and the other is the open source ecosystem, both hands must be grasped, both hands must be hard.

How to lose?

At this time, Qin Weimu looked at Luo Sheng slightly, and thoughtfully said: "The acquisition of Android from Google, including this peep at Sun, especially in November last year, Google took the lead in opening the mobile phone alliance. The ambition to capture the complete industry chain has been exposed. "

Hearing this, Luo Sheng couldn't help laughing, and also remembered the situation at the first developer conference.

Eric Schmidt was so enthusiastic at the Cote d'Azur Developers Conference that he knew that this old man turned back and took Android out. Android was bought by Google in 2005, but it has not been taken seriously. , Even benchmarking Nokia ’s Symbian system, until the emergence of Azure mobile phones, let the development of Google's Android system rise to the company's strategic level.

Only then has the lead in opening the mobile phone alliance happened, and only then has the Google mobile phone operating platform finally officially landed.

Moreover, it is unexpected that the powerful Google did not let Android choose to fight alone like AOS on the Cote d'Azur, but an "Open Mobile Alliance" composed of 34 companies.

Among these 34 companies are Google, China Mobile, Motorola, Intel, Qualcomm, Samsung, Telecom Italia, Telefónica, T-Mobile, Texas Instruments TI, Broadcom, HTC and other companies.

Among them are some of the world's top chip vendors, based on Google's Android platform, and continue to promote a fully integrated mobile "software stack" consisting of an operating system, middleware, user-friendly interface and application software.

Interestingly, the Apple company under the leadership of Qiao Gang is not among them. Qiao Gang is now obsessed with the tablet iPad project and cannot help himself, and intends to change the world again.

Apple's board of directors has repeatedly proposed entering the smartphone market as soon as possible, but Qiao Bangzhu is a paranoid. Geniuses are often paranoid, and they will not deny their mistakes, otherwise they will not be geniuses. The logic of genius's mind is: How could it be wrong? Incredible, why am I wrong?

Obviously, the birth of Google ’s Android Alliance is an undisguised benchmark for the AOS ecosystem of the Cote d'Azur company. The goal of the AOS system is not only to run on thousands of smartphones, but also the future strategic layout. Enter consumer electronics hardware for mobile terminals such as TVs, game consoles, wearables, and car dashboards.

Qin Weimu said: "Early this year, the first G1 Android device was launched, but it failed."

Luo Sheng laughed: "I watched the G1 Android device, a poor imitation of AOS."

Qin Weimu said, "However, I don't think Google will just give up. It will definitely continue to develop the operating system. Sun will probably bring a lot of benefits if it can be incorporated into its command."

Luo Sheng nodded but shook his head quickly, and said happily: "I think Larry Page and Larry Ellison, the latter may include Sun in his pocket, Larry Ellison This person is also a genius who likes to go wild, and is especially shameful. Can you imagine that Ellison arranged to squat the opponent's trash bin all day long to collect the secret information of the opponent for analysis? I think Page may be a little overwhelmed now, this person's way is not the wildest, only the wilder. "

Ok?

Hearing this, Qin Weimuton was puzzled, instead of paying attention to Luo Sheng's dark history of Ellison, he immediately looked at his incomprehensible words: "You mean, Sun may eventually fall into Oracle. In your hands? "

Luo Sheng didn't speak, but nodded, which also explained his prediction.

Qin Weimu did not get too distracted in this matter, and said instead: "You have proposed last year to open source ecosystems that are completely opposite to the AOS closed-loop ecosystem. When will this plan be implemented? Stay until now There is even no plan in the plan. "

Luo Sheng considered Shen Shen for a moment and said, "After the completion of the merger and acquisition of MySQL company, let Yao Jianhong put the project on the agenda and hand it over to Feng Yi for execution. He is focusing on the ecosystem and released it at the 2009 developer conference. It's called the WOS system. "

Two years is enough. The azure coast is not as rootless as it was in 2004. Google dreams of getting the underlying design of AOS, but the Android competitors that have not yet been born can easily get related resources. Of tilt.

Of course, Android has an advantage early on, but the open source system of the French Riviera has a late start but a high starting point, which is also an advantage. It will eventually return to the hard power of fighting technology. Luo Sheng is very confident.

And the time node launched is just right. 2010 is an important time node. If the change is not large, it is not surprising that domestic smartphone brands such as Xiaomi mobile phones will spring up at this time node.

Also in this year, it was no accident that Google also withdrew from China. Luo Sheng's analysis of the situation from his previous life showed that by 2010, the smartphone market was still the world of Nokia Symbian system.

Not to mention right now, SymbianS60v3 / v5 is the number one market leader and far ahead. Even in 2008, Nokia ’s traditional mobile phone giants are still immersed in the past glory and still unwilling to move a comfortable position. , Still clinging to the plastic keyboard.

Also this time, several companies played with Google.

Because Azure mobile phones currently have a market share of less than 1% in the billion-dollar market, those traditions have not even realized how fierce the mobile Internet wave is. There are too many emerging companies. And the rise, too, there are too many companies declining because of this, there are no lack of behemoths like Nokia.

It really confirms the old saying that you won't shed tears if you don't enter the coffin.

As for the current Android system, there isn't even a Bluestar Technology "family bucket" application. It is not that Luo Sheng refuses to use it. Any mobile phone and any system can be used because this represents the user base and ecosystem of Bluestar Technology Group.

However, Android does not even have a decent hardware device, let alone carry its ecological environment. HTC and Samsung do not know what they are doing now.

For others, the advent of the mobile Internet is confusing to many people, but Luo Sheng is extremely clear about the future. He seized this time point in 2010 and launched the WOS operating system in 2009. Its ecology is exactly the same as that of Android. , All play open source operations.

Luo Sheng's confidence is that domestic mobile phone brands will eventually rise, so as long as the domestic team is brought in, the open ecosystem and Android can be fought globally.

Under Luo Sheng's vision blueprint, the future mobile phone operating system should be a "one super and many strong" situation. "One super" is a closed-loop AOS system, which has been far ahead in this area for more than five years, and " "How strong" should be WOS system, Google Android based on Linux operating system, Nokia Symbian, Apple iOS and so on.

However, Apple has lost its reputation, and Luo ’s air transport has basically been drained by Luo Sheng. Even with the launch of iOS, it is doomed to be overwhelmed. Here is a prerequisite. It depends on when Joe helps the owner break through the south wall and turn around. Do not look back.

In terms of closed-loop and open-source ecology, the French Riviera grabbed both hands, and both were tough.

At the same time, the open source ecosystem is divided into two camps. Based on the WOS system under the Cote d'Azur company, the WOS ecosystem is formed with Xiaomi mobile phones, OPPO, vivo and other domestic brands.

Of course, the premise is that Rebes will set up Xiaomi and vivo companies as scheduled in the last generation of Luo Sheng, but even if there is no Xiaomi, there will definitely be rice and the like. Luo Sheng need not worry at all, because he intends Azure mobile phones do low-to-mid-end, but focus on the high-end area. It is good to have an open-source WOS system at the low-end. The profit here is not much, and it is given to other domestic mobile phone manufacturers.

Here is Luo Sheng ’s strength and mindset, and at the same time it is clear that his opponent will not be in the country for a long time, but overseas, and Google.

And the other big open source ecological camp is Google ’s Android-based ecosystem ~ www.novelhall.com ~ Unsurprisingly, Android ’s early lead may be HTC, and then Samsung came first, and HTC eventually died.

This is Luo Sheng's vision for the future of the entire industry. There is a high probability that this trend will move toward such a trend. There is a great probability that the pulse of this era will continue to beat like this, Luo Sheng firmly believes.

And grasping the pulse of the times can win the future.

Luo Sheng's ambition is to build a pyramid-like structure in the global mobile phone industry. At the top level, the AOS closed-loop system should be used. The carrier is the Azure series, the second echelon is WOS and Android, and the third echelon is classified as other, such as the old brand. The giants have fallen, just stay here and eat and die.

Such a structure will eventually establish a consensus of consumer habits in the minds of consumers. Azure phones are preferred for high-end machines, and WOS or Android phones are preferred for low-end and mid-range machines. Buy plastic keyboard feature phones and take care of yourself. There is no difference in which brand to buy, the brand does not have to look at it, cheap and easy to use is the first choice.
