Chapter 786: The Original Sin of Changtian Technology
Zuckerberg concluded that Changtian Technology had finally spent a huge price to win the European market, and he would definitely be reluctant to give up like this.
Chen Xiao will definitely find ways to retain the European market.
The best way to continue to own the European market is to cooperate with these mature application companies in the United States.
But he still underestimated Chen Xiao's ambition.
What Chen Xiao wants is not just to own the European market, but to re-establish the rules of the smartphone and application ecosystem.
Any application, no matter how popular it is or how many users it has, must be under the operating system.
Absolutely no application is allowed to override the operating system or mobile phone.
Because the operating system is in the hands of Changtian Technology, it can be controlled.
The application is uncontrollable.
If Changtian Technology opens up to the Internet this time, it may cooperate with companies such as Twitter and Facebook in order to occupy the European market.
So if one day, these application companies in the United States suddenly have trouble again and once again use the application ecological chain as a bargaining chip to threaten Changtian Technology, then how should Changtian Technology respond?
It is impossible to temporarily remove an already mature application system from the shelves and invite new companies to develop new applications.
Chen Xiao gave Wang Xiang a look.
At this time, Wang Xiang resisted his inner impulse and sat down quietly, but his head was looking out the window.
Because he really has no way to face the shameless appearance of these businessmen in the United States.
Chen Xiao smiled and said to Zuckerberg: "Sir, I also have a plan here, and I think this plan is more in line with the current status quo of both of us."
Chen Xiao handed a page of paper to Zuckerberg.
This article states the three conditions given by Changtian Technology.
Article 1. Any application must comply with the relevant requirements of the utilization matrix, and application providers can only provide technical support for the service experience of the application.
As for what kind of matrix the application appears in and what form it appears in, this is decided by the Firefly operating system.
No application provider may appear in the application matrix in its own name.
At this point, there are actually clear requirements for application data.
All data will be classified into the comprehensive data of the application matrix for the Firefly operating system and comprehensive storage.
It will not be stored on servers in the United States like Facebook or Twitter data in the past.
Point 2: Firefly operating system takes 30% of the profits from application provider services.
Point 3: As for whether application services from companies such as Facebook and Twitter can be put on the Xiaguo market, Changtian Technology has not taken a position on this.
Zuckerberg's face turned dark when he looked at the conditions proposed by Chen Xiao.
This condition is much more stringent than what Jobs originally negotiated.
And one of the most important ones is that application companies are only responsible for providing technical and service support for their own applications.
How the rest is used and where it is used, the application company has no care at all.
Zuckerberg hasn't spoken yet.
But after his assistant saw this information, he was very angry.
Zhu Li pointed to the conditions on the A4 paper and said to Chen Xiao and Wang Xiang: "Two gentlemen, we really don't understand why there are such harsh terms."
"If we only provide services and technical support for the application matrix, does this mean that our own Internet company is actually an outsourcing manufacturer for Hanhai Technology's application matrix?"
After saying this, everyone whispered, feeling that what the assistant said was very correct.
How is this different from the outsourcing companies of some major manufacturers?
Chen Xiao did not compromise under the strong questioning from everyone.
Chen Xiao said to them: "The iOS system has the rules of iOS, Android has the rules of Android, and the Firefly operating system also has the rules of Firefly."
"The three conditions we gave are not deliberately targeted at a certain company, but are the logic run by the Firefly operating system."
"Why is it that the 2G memory of the Hanhai mobile phone is so smooth to use? No matter how many programs are installed and how many applications are opened, there will be no lag even if the phone is used for a long time."
"The most fundamental reason is our application matrix, which is a complete whole rather than separate individuals."
After Chen Xiao said this, he stood up and said to Wang Xiang: "Mr. Wang, if Mr. Zuckerberg and Mr. Jack Dorsey are willing to continue to cooperate with us, then we will negotiate company by company. I still have
I have some things to do, so I’ll excuse you first.”
After Chen Xiao left, everyone was left looking at each other.
No matter how you say it, Zuckerberg is still the leader of the US mobile Internet industry.
No matter whether they go to Europe or to South Korea and Japan in Asia, no country will treat them as VIPs.
But until Xia Kingdom, the plane could not park at the airport in Changzezhou. Now Cheng Xiao actually left alone during the meeting, and instead asked the people below to talk to the team members one by one.
Isn’t this contempt for the entire American Internet application team?
Wang Xiang smiled and said: "Sir, let's talk in detail about the specific details of cooperation."
Zuckerberg did not want to negotiate with Changtian Technology, but he was reluctant to part with the European and Asian markets.
After three consecutive days of negotiations.
In the end, the talks fell apart.
Strengthening Facebook's technical services by weakening the Facebook brand is something Zuckerberg cannot accept under any circumstances.
Twitter’s ideas are exactly the same as Facebook’s, and they cannot accept the three plans proposed by Changtian Technology.
Zuckerberg was so angry that he was about to return to the United States with his team.
But I didn't expect that Changtian Technology's various breakthrough policies are very useful.
Some applications such as Photo Wall have actually reached a compromise agreement with Changtian Technology.
They are willing to put their applications in the application matrix of Changtian Technology in full compliance with the conditions given by Changtian Technology.
In other words, there are some cracks in the American team here.
At Changtian Technology’s Wangyue Hotel, Zuckerberg angrily lost his temper to his colleagues.
But representatives from application companies such as Photo Wall have their own reasons.
Because these applications are far less unique than Facebook or Twitter, there are currently so many applications on the market that the homogeneity is very serious.
The possibility of applications such as photo walls being replaced is very high.
If these companies do not cooperate with Changtian Technology this time, their positions will definitely be replaced by other applications.
Based on this situation, application companies such as Photo Wall fully agreed to Changtian Technology’s conditions.
One more partner, one more way out.
And the representatives of the photo wall must think much more long-term than the CEOs of Twitter and Facebook.
Although they are not qualified to enter the Xia Kingdom market now.
But if you feel that this is an opportunity to achieve a very good cooperation with Great Wall Technology and establish a certain relationship.
What about the future?
Who can explain this kind of thing clearly?
After the quarrel, the entire team broke up unhappy.
The team members didn't even take the same flight back to the United States.
The media are eagerly awaiting the news, hoping to get relevant news after the talks.
But it's a pity.
Neither Changtian Technology nor the U.S. negotiators announced any news during this meeting.
There isn't even a joint communiqué.
Journalists who are very familiar with the American business negotiation model can accurately judge.
Facebook, Twitter and Changtian Technology may not have reached any substantial agreement.
The media have speculated that Facebook and Twitter should end up in vain this time and return in disappointment.
After Zuckerberg’s special plane arrived in the United States.
There were many reporters waiting for Zuckerberg at the airport, hoping to interview him and get some information.
But Zuckerberg and his team, with dark faces, quickly left the airport and got into a special car under the escort of bodyguards.
The reporters had been pondering the questions for a long time, but none of them were asked.
Subsequently, the New York Times published an article: Changtian Technology, Facebook and Twitter were unable to reach a consensus, and the two parties had no substantive cooperation.
Of course, the happiest people to get this news are Google and Apple.
Cook and Sundar immediately contacted Twitter and Facebook.
For the iOS operating system and the Android operating system, a common data standard is established for the optimization of the two software.
Both companies need more partners.
Cook and Sundar even held the 2014 American Internet Conference in California.
I hope that we can continue to reach consensus with American Internet application companies.
Let’s work together to maintain the freedom and security of the Internet.
This Internet conference came up with new words.
Freedom and security.
The directionality is very clear.
I only need to mention by name that the operating systems and mobile phones launched by Hanhai Technology Co., Ltd. and Yinghuo Technology Co., Ltd., which are subsidiaries of Changtian Technology, are not free and unsafe.
Chen Xiao dismissed the statement from the US Internet Conference.
But Chen Xiao is very concerned about one thing.
That is this Internet conference in the United States. Participants include not only mobile phone systems and related application companies such as Apple, Google, Facebook and Twitter.
There are also related hardware companies such as Texas Instruments, Qualcomm, Intel, Samsung Semiconductor, LG, and Micron.
Moreover, companies such as Lianxiang, Xiaomi, Meizu, Nanlan Factory and Green Factory of Xia State have sent very high-level representatives to attend this meeting.
This news made Chen Xiao very alert.
In the layout of the entire mobile Internet, Changtian Technology hopes to take itself as the main body and then drive the collective development of the entire Xiaguo Internet technology enterprises.
In order to achieve this purpose.
In the future, he will gradually open up the Firefly operating system.
Any mobile phone company in Xia Guo can reach a strategic cooperation agreement with Changtian Technology.
You can use Changtian Technology’s Yinghuo operating system and the established application ecosystem.
Chen Xiao is engaged in top-level design.
Therefore, Changtian Technology has now opened up the sales of hardware companies’ ultimate performance and low-level performance chips and carbon crystal storage.
All mobile phone manufacturers in Xia are able to purchase Changtian Technology’s mid-range and low-end Jiaolong chips and carbon crystal storage.
The open Android system combined with Changtian Technology's hardware can definitely beat the Android phones with Qualcomm or MediaTek chips currently on the market.
Moreover, the pricing of Hanhai mobile phones is determined, and the mobile phones are only based on the high-end market.
Just competing with iPhones and Samsung phones.
It will not compete with domestic mobile phones in the mid- to low-end market.
In addition, after the reputation of Hanhai Mobile Phone is established, it will also drive the global sales of Xia Guo Mobile Phone.
After all, the super performance of Hanhai mobile phones comes from the super long hardware of Changtian Technology.
Domestic mid- to low-end mobile phones can also use Changtian Technology’s hardware if they wish.
The current situation is that none of the mobile phone companies in Xia has purchased hardware from Changtian Technology.
Most of them use the standard configuration of Qualcomm and Samsung.
Low-end ones will use MediaTek chips plus second-tier brand memory.
Obviously, these domestic mobile phone companies are now attending the Internet Summit in the United States. Either they have a problem with their own brains, or they have been completely deceived after receiving high-tech education in the United States for several years.
Lame.
They feel that American technology is world-class, or they are jealous of the success of Changtian Technology and are unwilling to succumb to Changtian Technology.
It was indeed not what Chen Xiao expected.
Many Xiaguo mobile phone companies went to the United States to participate in the summit for a purpose.
After the meeting, a number of American mobile phone manufacturers signed large order agreements with Qualcomm, Samsung, LG, Micron, etc.
In particular, Blue Factory, Green Factory and Lianxiang can obtain high-performance hardware from these companies at relatively low prices.
From the joint announcement issued by the Internet Summit, Chen Xiao can basically determine that in the next few years, these mobile phone manufacturers in Xia will continue to use hardware products from overseas companies.
These mobile phone companies in Xia State even accepted interviews with great excitement after the Internet Summit.
Among them, the CEO of Blue Factory also said that in the past many years, Xia Guo’s mobile phone companies have only been able to use Qualcomm chips and Samsung storage at high prices, and the use of these products has still been in the second echelon.
You have to wait for a few months or even a year for the mobile phone company in the United States to use it first before the mobile phone company can use it.
The CEO of Blue Factory also said that not only that, Xia Guo’s mobile phone company purchased American hardware at a very high price.
The price is 15% to 30% more expensive than purchasing from companies outside mainland China.
So this time, obtaining such a low price and priority supply qualification is a great victory for Xia Guo mobile phone manufacturers.
The reason why the CEO of Blue Factory is so excited actually reflects how difficult it was for Xiaomi to negotiate with Qualcomm alone and cut the price.
The CEO of Blue Factory said very confidently: "This time we have signed a total contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars with Qualcomm! We will launch a charge towards high-end mobile phones!"
Chen Xiao saw this news.
You know that Xia's mobile phone manufacturers are finished now, and are being tightly controlled by American companies.
In fact, Chen Xiao is very clear about their mentality.
I would rather cooperate with overseas companies and make mobile phones that are different from Changtian Technology, rather than cooperate with Changtian Technology.
The original sin is that Changtian Technology is a Xia Guo company.
Smartphones are a new trend, and it is not certain who will win or lose.
Chen Xiao smiled helplessly and turned to the life sciences and medical laboratory.
Qu Ping told Chen Xiao on the phone that this time the laboratory has a very mature scientific research result that can be used on mobile phones. Chen Xiao is absolutely satisfied with it.
