Of course, Song Weiyang did not come to the capital this time to drink with Mr. Han San.

Larry Page, one of Google's founders, and Andy Rubin, the father of Android, came to China together, and it was clear that they wanted to inspect the Android mobile phone system.

At this time, Apple's smartphone plan had been leaked. Although only a little bit exposed, it still attracted the attention of the entire Silicon Valley. The outside world is paying more and more attention to this, and the inside story of the project is leaking more and more, and Google reacts quickly.

Donglaishun.

Larry Page and Andy Rubin have already arrived at the private room. The person in charge of bringing them to the hot pot restaurant is Li Xiaofeng, vice president of Ark Technology.

Various sauces and side dishes have been served in advance. Larry Page pointed to the copper stove hot pot and said to Andy Rubin in the tone of an experienced person: "I have eaten this hot pot in Shenghai. It tastes great, especially the mutton slices." As he said that, he gave the thumbs up to the waiter serving the side dishes, "Awesome, Wairui is awesome!"

The waitress was a little puzzled, then started to laugh and replied: "Three grams of oil!"

Larry Page replied in Chinese: "No thanks."

Andy Rubin asked: "What does awesome mean?"

Larry Page explained: "What awesome means in Chinese is very good."

"Oh." Andy Rubin suddenly realized and read it several times, and was happy that he had learned a Chinese vocabulary.

Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Mr. Page, who did you learn Chinese from?"

Larry Page said: "The administrator of a Shenghai Internet Cafe."

"That network administrator is really awesome!" Li Xiaofeng sighed sincerely.

Larry Page said: "At that time, Sergey and I came to China, specifically talking about angel investment. When we went out shopping, we got lost and entered an Internet cafe and contacted Song via email. The atmosphere of Chinese Internet cafes is great, reminding me of the small game halls in the United States in the 1990s."

"Invest in Google?" Li Xiaofeng asked.

"Yes, a joyful and sad investment," said Larry Page, spreading his hands, "Song wants too many shares, and now I regret it a little."

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"

The waiter knocked on the door of the private room, then pushed the door open and entered, smiling and said, "Please, please!"

Song Weiyang and Shen Si walked in, and Larry Page immediately stood up to greet him. The two of them opened their arms and greeted him with a bear hug.

Larry Page introduced: "This is Andy Rubin, the developer of Android and vice president of Google's engineering department."

"Hello, Rubin." Song Weiyang shook hands.

"Hello, Mr. Song," greeted Andy Rubin.

Everyone sat down and made a hot pot.

Larry Page talked about the latest situation, then went straight to the topic and said, "Song, are you planning to make a smartphone?"

"Yes." Song Weiyang nodded.

Larry Page said: "Google intends to optimize Android systems, outperform all current mobile phone systems in terms of performance, and then attract customers through open source! How is China doing?"

"The Android system has been basically made mobile, but there are still some shortcomings, and optimization design is underway." Song Weiyang said.

Andy Rubin said: "I hope to get in touch. If China does a good job, the United States will adopt it directly. If China needs help, I can ask the team at the headquarters to come and help."

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Of course."

It seems that Apple's project leak is not serious. Google plans to adopt a full keyboard design. It is not known that Apple has abandoned the keyboard.

Andy Rubin is a super technology control company and worked at Apple in his early years.

Don’t talk about the blessings of 996, and don’t say that Huawei is a prison factory, Apple’s R&D department is the same. Andy Rubin ate and lived in the office 24 hours a day and developed a smartphone system for Apple. Unfortunately, it was only 1995 that time, and the concept of smartphones was too advanced and was directly sentenced to death by the market.

Later Andy Rubin joined Microsoft again, built a walkable robot, installed a camera and microphone, and wandered around within Microsoft. As a result, the robot was hacked and Microsoft's security team was so scared that it urinated. Andy Rubin got out of Microsoft because of this.

In the early 21st century, the most popular smartphone sidekik in the world was developed by Andy Rubin. However, this popularity only exists among the rich, young and cool consumer group. To put it bluntly, it is a very expensive pretentious thing. The market is very niche, and Andy Rubin was forced to resign again.

Midway through, Andy Rubin went to develop a digital camera again, and it also ended in failure.

In another time and space, after the Android system became popular, the media always said that Andy Rubin defined Android as a mobile phone system at the beginning of development in order to realize his dream of smartphones. In fact, this is half true and half false. Perhaps Andy Rubin thought so at the beginning, but soon found that the system could not be sold. Even if the system architecture was converted to open source design, it could not be sold. So I simply switched to the PDA (palm computer) system.

After eating hot pot, the two foreigners couldn't wait to go to Android (China) for a visit.

The Android system in China does not adopt a tombstone design, but still uses the original Android architecture, but continues to be optimized.

Andy Rubin was not interested at first, but was soon shocked: "Why is the Android system being reduced so many times? What phone are you developing?"

"Smartphone," Song Weiyang smiled, "A smartphone that can run multiple programs at the same time must have enough memory space, so the Android system must be reduced."

Andy Rubin is a pioneer in the smartphone industry. He started to do this thing in 1993. He suddenly became interested: "How do users operate multiple programs at the same time? Is it like a handheld computer?"

"If you want to know the answer, you must sign a confidentiality agreement." Song Weiyang said.

Larry Page asked, “Do I want to sign too?”

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Of course, you can choose to avoid it."

After the two signed a confidentiality agreement, someone soon brought a semi-finished product.

Mainly because the screen glass, multi-touch design, and Android programming are still flawed, so they can only be called semi-finished products. There are many semi-finished products on Apple, which belong to Jobs. Every time he gets a new toy, he will be furious and cursed everywhere, catch something he is not satisfied with, and force developers to continue to optimize.

"No keyboard? Where is the startup key?" asked Larry Page.

Song Weiyang pressed the button on the side of the body and opened a software casually and said, "Try it, this is a small game we designed ourselves."

Fruit Ninja.

Brush brush brush brush brush brush!

Andy Rubin caught a banana watermelon and durian and then asked, "Is the he key below going back to the main menu?"

"Yes," said Song Weiyang, "You can just slide directly from the edge of the screen."

Andy Rubin first tried to slide sideways, and a Chinese dialog box popped up, and Song Weiyang guided him to click confirmation to return.

After trying all the features of this phone, Andy Rubin praised: "Cool, so cool! This is my dream smartphone! Song, the guy who designed this phone is a genius!"

Larry Page watched the whole time and shrugged: "Fortunately Google has no intention of making a phone, otherwise you will definitely be defeated."

Song Weiyang said: "We are optimizing the Android system, and there are still many minor problems at the moment."

"Maybe, I can come and help." Andy Rubin volunteered.

Song Weiyang said: "Of course, I can give you a high salary, but the shareholding of Android (China) will not change."

Larry Page frowned and said, "Who is the patent of this Android system?"

Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Leave it to the legal staff for discussion."

Android and Android (China) have no affiliation, but the Android system (smartphone version) is based on the Android architecture and is redeveloped independently by Chinese programmers. Moreover, whether it is Android or Android (China), Song Weiyang holds more shares, and Google cannot take advantage of it.

However, since Song Weiyang is a technical novices, he knew that people would acquire Android, but forgot to acquire other companies. For example, Skia was acquired by Google, while the Android system uses Skia graphics software.

The more complex modern equipment is, the more patents it involves.

For example, Microsoft has a large number of patents for Android systems. Because they have a deep foundation, latecomers cannot avoid it. In the future, when China's smartphones are launched, even if they use their own developed systems, they have to pay Microsoft a few dollars in patent fees for every mobile phone sold. If they don't give it, they will wait for a lawsuit.

So in another time and space, before Google could even come out to sue the manufacturer for infringement, Microsoft sued companies that infringe Android patents all over the place. Unknowingly, they thought Android had been acquired by Microsoft.

Huawei's Hongmeng system will definitely not be able to avoid Microsoft's patents, but it can wait for the patents to expire, because many patents are very old.

Larry Page came to China this time and couldn't just visit the Android (China) company. He had other things to do.

However, after seeing the Shenzhou smartphone, this guy immediately proposed to merge Android and Android (China) and completely transform Android (China) from an Android joint venture to an Android branch or wholly-owned subsidiary.

Song Weiyang flatly refused. Google just needs to be a shareholder in the future, and by the way, it can cooperate with the promotion of the Android system.

Larry Page suddenly felt a little regretful, but it was too late to regret it. He could guess that the market for China's smartphones is broad and the prospects for Android are also extremely broad. For the benefit of Google, he can only cooperate with the promotion of Android systems in the future, which is a typical example of being unable to get off after getting on the pirate ship.

However, Andy Rubin didn't have so many tricks. He took the initiative to put down his work in the United States and came to China to guide the optimization of the Android system. He didn't even bother to ask about his salary, which greatly accelerated the optimization progress of Android.

When he learned that it was the concept of a smartphone proposed by Song Weiyang, Andy Rubin also liked Song Weiyang very much. He called Song Weiyang every few days to discuss future technology.

Well, this guy’s ideal is to build intelligent robots, and the name of Android comes from "Blade Runner".

By the end of the year, the optimization of the Android system came to an end. Andy Rubin flew to Shenghai Song Weiyang's house as a guest. As soon as he entered the door, he complained that Song Weiyang's villa was too low, and patted his chest and said, "Song, I'll help your villa undergo a major renovation."

"How to transform?" Song Weiyang asked.

Andy Rubin said: "The villa door uses a voice control system to record fixed sounds for identification. The living room door uses retina to identify it. It does not require a key, and it can open the door automatically. Also, your home theater system is too backward. The one in my home, the lights are automatically turned off at the beginning of the movie, and the lights are automatically turned on after the movie ends. I also have a laser-controlled balance bike at home, and I will also get you a set, your son will definitely like it."

Song Weiyang smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it. Since you like science fiction things, I will give you a car. The latest Tesla, pure electric sports car, and various intelligent designs."

Andy Rubin has since become the first man in the United States to drive a Tesla. He drives out for a ride every now and then, but unfortunately he doesn't dare to drive to work.
Chapter completed!
