Chapter 491 Chip! Chip! Still chip!

 The New Year begins in 2003.

Most of the scientific researchers at Changtian Technology do not take vacations, but stick to their jobs and carry out scientific research.

The content of this research is the application of Yinghuo OS on the mobile platform.

Chen Xiao attaches great importance to this project, which he believes is a major breakthrough for Changtian Technology to move out of Xia Kingdom and into the world.

After Yang Fei’s team worked hard to solve the problem.

Firefly os has been extremely optimized and can finally be installed on Nokia mobile phones.

Yang Fei reported: "After testing, our system has more complete functions and is smoother to use than Symbian."

Yang Fei demonstrated the team’s scientific research results to Chen Xiao.

He took out a modified Nokia 7650 mobile phone.

Mobile phones equipped with Firefly OS are not equipped with Xiaoying Assistant.

The fundamental reason is that the performance of the mobile phone is not enough to support the operation of Xiaoying Assistant.

But because the mobile version of Yinghuo os is also a closed operating system.

Therefore, all functions of the mobile phone can be integrated into the system and can be accessed according to the user's usage.

This can maximize the reasonable use of mobile phone performance and prevent the phone from lagging.

In addition, using the Jiuzhang compiler, there are many applications that support the mobile version of Firefly Guardian.

During Yang Qing’s demonstration.

Several of the applications exceeded Chen Xiao's expectations.

For example, the team developed mobile versions of SuiChat and Penguin chat software.

A mobile version of Cangjie office software has even been developed.

It is also because due to the performance of mobile phones, Cangjie Office software can only view files and perform simple edits on files, and cannot achieve the functions of a computer system.

In addition, Yang Fei’s demonstration also revealed that there are many classic mobile games in the application market.

Some of these mobile phones cannot be built by Symbian system anyway.

Just these few small changes have proven the powerful performance of the Firefly OS mobile version.

Nokia 7650 is Nokia's globally popular Symbian smartphone.

Unfortunately, due to price and network reasons, this phone is not yet available in Xia Guo.

Therefore, the mobile phone was also tinkered with by the team from overseas.

This phone is not a touch screen, it still uses physical buttons.

The mobile phone used by Chen Xiao finally has some of the feel of later generations of smartphones, but because it is not a touch screen, it is still a little awkward to use.

Yang Fei said with emotion: "Actually, we already have the technology, but the chip is too weak! If the chip of a mobile phone can be as powerful as a computer, the functions of our system will be even stronger."

Chen Xiao has just seen the specific model of the mobile phone chip.

Currently, the mainstream Symbian mobile phones sold by Nokia in the United States use chips from Freescale and Texas Instruments.

It is a pity that these two chip companies are both from the United States.

This proves the strength of the U.S. chip industry and the strength of the U.S. scientific research and industrial system.

Yang Fei searched all over the country for manufacturers of mobile phone chips, but unfortunately there was still no one!

Chen Xiao sighed a little, but said helplessly: "The technology is in the hands of the Americans, and there is nothing you can do if you are anxious."

"This time when I came back from Suzhou and Hangzhou, my biggest feeling is that we must have a say in core technology."

Chen Xiao joked: "If we had just one chip design and manufacturer in China, we wouldn't be so passive."

These words touched everyone's heart.

Yang Fei also knew very well that as long as there was a manufacturer of computer CPUs in Fanxia State, even if the performance was slightly weaker than Intel, Changtian Technology would not be so passive.

It will not reach a cooperation with SoftBank because of the need to expand the market and win more users, so that SoftBank can use its own connections and capital power to convince Intel to support Changtian Technology's hardware equipment.

Yang Fei also thought of the latter possibility.

Changtian Technology already has the technology to produce mobile phone operating systems and even the hardware for most mobile phones.

But the most lacking thing is the key hardware-CPU!

Suppose Changtian Technology wants to break the monopoly of Western communication companies on Xia Guo's mobile phone business and produce its own mobile phones.

It is very likely that, like computers, if it touches Western interests, it is likely to be stopped.

And with the lessons learned from Shenchuan Computer, Western capital and technology companies will definitely use more ruthless methods this time.

Yang Fei also knew that even if he had the skills now, he could only wait for the opportunity.

In fact, on the way back from Suzhou and Hangzhou.

Chen Xiao already has detailed plans for Changtian Technology.

He cannot passively wait for system upgrades, he must carry out drastic reforms to the company.

And immediately set up relevant scientific research institutions to conduct scientific research on key core technologies such as chips.

Even if Changtian Technology cannot make chips that are comparable to Intel and AMD, at least having something is better than nothing.

Even if the technological competition between the two parties becomes increasingly fierce afterwards, Changtian Technology still has spare cards in its hands so that it will not have no way out.

Chen Xiao added: "Before the Spring Festival, I will conduct a comprehensive reform of the company to deal with these problems."

A week later, Wang Xiang, who was on a business trip in Dongyang, also returned to Jiangzhou.

He brought two pieces of good news and two pieces of bad news to Chen Xiao.

The good news is that SoftBank's connections are indeed very wide.

Perhaps it is because Yinghuo os is so popular and its large-scale application has become a fait accompli.

Or maybe SoftBank used the capital means behind it.

Intel began to tacitly agree to allow HP, Dell, Asus and other companies to use its chips in computers equipped with Changtian Technology hardware.

This news means that the two-year technology blockade of Tian Technology, captain of the American Technology Alliance, has been shattered.

Western technology companies ultimately bow to profits and the market.

The second good news is that Firefly OS continues to be very popular in the East.

At present, the number of users of Toyo alone has reached 3 million.

Many Japanese games and developers have also developed corresponding games for the Firefly OS system.

From the end of December last year to the end of January this year, the revenue of Yinghuo OS in the Toyo application market reached approximately 5 million RMB.

This is definitely a good start, and according to this trend, future income will be even higher

It is a pity that all of this income has nothing to do with Changtian Technology and was all taken away by SoftBank.

But then again, whether it is Changtian Technology or other Xia Guo companies.

If you don't share the benefits with the other party's local company, you may not even be able to enter the market.

This is just like no matter how powerful the Western automobile companies are, you must form a joint venture with a domestic automobile company in Xiaguo to enter the Xiaguo market.

Every place has its own science and technology protection policies, and the market is not as simple as everyone thinks.

Wang Xiang sighed and said: "Two bad news."

"The first bad news is that Intel is temporarily unable to supply Shenship."

"The second bad news is that as long as your computer uses Changtian Technology's hardware, the AMD and Intel chips purchased by the company are 10% to 20% more expensive than computers using Windows systems."

"AMD has also increased its price on Shenchuan, and our competitive advantage has been immediately weakened."

After hearing Wang Xiang's report, Chen Xiao wanted to curse: "I xtmd!
