Silicon Valley

Chapter five hundred and seventy seventh Android phone debut

After Google released the Android system, it had a huge impact.

Numerous mobile phone manufacturers have contacted Google to obtain the authorization of the Android system, but the Symbian system feels abandoned in an instant. Of course, there are exceptions. Nokia, the owner of Symbian, still "never abandons it, and loves it more". Nokia believes that Symbian system can also do it just by touching a smartphone! However, by the time the Symbian system could do it, ios and Android had already taken over the market.

Furthermore, the Symbian system uses the SymbianC++ language for development, and has its own set of complete and strict development frameworks and mechanisms. These great restrictions on developers make it very difficult for software developers to develop application software on the Saibai system. Who wouldn't want it easy? Therefore, no software developer is willing to develop software on the Symbian system. There is only a mobile phone system but no application software, which is useless.

Nokia does not give up Symbian, doomed to decline. But it is a bit reluctant to tell it to give up Symbian, after all, the Symbian system is worth billions of dollars! Perhaps, the Nokia in the previous life was also troubled by this, and felt that it was a pity to abandon it. It can be said that "success is also Saipan, failure is also Saipan". Samsung used to be the major shareholder of the Symbian system, but its shares were later acquired by Nokia. Therefore, without any shares, it immediately switched to the Android system lineup, and soon It has become the second largest mobile phone manufacturer in the world after Apple's iPhone.

At this moment, when various manufacturers approached Google for system authorization, Williams Electronics Group and Hongnian Technology Company successively released their own smartphones: Williams-Galaxy S1 and Hongnian-Xiaomi 1.

The smartphones of Williams Electronics are the Galaxy series, and the smartphones of Hongnian Technology are the Xiaomi series. Obviously, they copied Samsung and Xiaomi from the previous life, and even copied the name.

Williams-Galaxy S1 is priced at $399, Hongnian-Xiaomi is priced at $199. One focuses on the mid-range market and the other focuses on the low-end market.

Since the release of these two phones followed Google's press conference, other mobile phone manufacturers were helpless. Who said that Google, Williams Electronics and Hongnian Technology are all Henry's industries!

"Oh, the world is so unfair, I feel so tired!!!" A mobile phone manufacturer sighed.

"Baby don't cry, I will accompany you!!!" Another mobile phone manufacturer comforted "with tears".

The embarrassing situation of the world's major mobile phone manufacturers was ridiculed by netizens, and they were made into jpg pictures, which spread wildly on the Internet, and became one of the most popular emoji packages on the Internet!

...

At 9 o'clock in the morning on August 15th, Galaxy S1 and Mi 1 will be sold globally simultaneously.

After all, Apple's iPhone 1 is too expensive, and many people look forward to the emergence of cheaper smart phones. Therefore, the sales of Galaxy S1 and Mi 1 are very hot. Whether it is offline or online, there is a frantic panic buying situation! Especially the Mi 1 mobile phone is in short supply! There was a long queue at the door of the store, and the online data was rising like a "rocket". The rest of the mobile phone manufacturers saw it and felt pain in their hearts!

At the end of the day, Galaxy S1 sold 1.85 million units, and Mi 1 sold 2.74 million units. Once the data was released, the industry was shocked!

A week later, the combined sales of the two phones topped 20 million units. Among them, the Android system is very popular, and even users who have used the Apple ios system say that the Android system is very good! Seeing this, the major mobile phone manufacturers couldn't help but increase their confidence in the Android system, and they became more determined to use the Android system as the operating system for new mobile phones!

At this time, a sentence was written on the cover of the latest "Time Magazine": "The era of smartphone hegemony has come!!!"

...

"Your Majesty, at your request, Hongnian Technology Company has specially developed a super cheap mobile phone for Africa - the black rice phone, which is priced at $99!" Violet came to Henry with a stack of documents, while Putting the document on the office, he said.

"Black rice mobile phone? Uh, well, there are many black people in Africa, so it would be more appropriate to call it black rice mobile phone. However, only a few people can afford $99..." Henry couldn't help shaking his head, African countries are too poor, The so-called freezing three feet is not a one-day cold, perhaps a few years later, this situation will have a relatively big change.

Henry raised his head to Violet and asked, "Have the two satellites that provide Internet access services to Mozambique and other countries been launched?"

"One satellite will be launched in 3 days, and the other satellite will be launched in 11 days!" Violet thought for a while and replied.

Henry nodded and responded.

The economic conditions of the four African countries that have joined the "Weiyuan" system have been improved, and the country is developing at a high speed. For the time being, Henry doesn't plan to directly ask them for money, but after review, those who have the ability to work can let them use the black rice mobile phone for free, but they need to sign a contract with the telecom operator MTN Group under his name. If this is put in the United States, it is called "advance consumption". If you have no money now, you can pay it back if you have money in the future. Henry believes that with the support of the Williams Empire, the economies of Mozambique and other countries will develop quickly. This small amount of money will definitely be affordable in the future!

In this way, Henry can catch all the users in these four countries. From then on, there will be no other telecom operators in the four countries' market. Telecom users are very sticky, and they seldom change their numbers, because changing numbers means losing many friends. Therefore, users will not easily change operators! After telecom operators become stronger and bigger, they can in turn help mobile phone manufacturers to promote mobile phones. The sales of Apple, GalaxyS, Xiaomi, and Blackmi mobile phones will naturally increase dramatically!

In this way, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

In order to reduce transportation costs, Williams Electronics Group established the world's largest and most comprehensive electronic product manufacturing plant in the port city of Tamatave, providing 250,000 jobs; and Hongnian Technology built here Established the world's largest foundry, providing 500,000 jobs! All kinds of electronic components produced by Williams Electronics can be assembled in Hongnian Technology Factory to create a one-stop service for the industrial chain! In this way, many companies may be attracted to "settle down" here, because they don't need to build factories, they only need to design products, place orders, and hand them over to Williams Electronics Group and Hongnian Technology Company.

...

The larger the scale, the lower the manufacturing cost.

At present, the main task of these two factories is to manufacture black rice mobile phones in large quantities, but they also produce iPhone, GalaxyS, Xiaomi and other electronic products to meet the needs of wealthy Africans!

The release time of the black rice mobile phone was slightly later, and it was officially released on September 1st. Although it is said that the black rice mobile phone can be purchased for "0 yuan", the MTN telecom operator's review is very strict. Unless they know that you have the ability to repay the loan, otherwise, they will not sign a contract with you.

"Your Majesty, there is an endless stream of buyers of black rice mobile phones, and many MTN operation points have lined up hundreds of meters!" Violet said, suddenly laughing, "However, people from many countries are against us. Expressed dissatisfaction, saying that we engage in discrimination, and the preferential conditions for the purchase of black rice mobile phones at 0 yuan are only available to the Williams Empire, Mozambique, Zimbabwe, Tanzania, Malawi, and five countries with the "Weiyuan" currency system. have, while other countries do not!"

Henry shrugged and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's easy to want, just try to get your country to join the 'Wei Yuan' system!"
