Chapter 267 The grand narrative angle and the official opening of the mobile phone business (1375 votes more)
The two responses from Andy, the father of Android, hit the link that Ali needs most.
When Li Ze initially made corresponding plans, he believed that after being suspended, Acer and Ali would work together to "fight" with Google based on their mutual cooperative relationship.
After all, Google is putting pressure on Acer and has no direct relationship with Ali, and Ali can't beep.
Of course, Aliyun's first official statement is being cleared.
After all, there is always an explanation for canceling a press conference. As for putting ourselves in the position of the 'victim' in the statement, it is nothing more than a propaganda operation.
At that time, there was only a hint of a grand narrative angle, which was very weak.
It has not developed to the point of conflict between the West and the East.
As a result, Andy Rubin came out to give a technical response in the official Android community. John, Ali's vice president of international affairs, immediately saw the opportunity and quickly added a statement.
I have to say here that Ali is indeed a big company, and the response from top management is strong.
Because no one at Bolang realized at the time that Ali might have had an idea to direct public opinion towards a grand narrative.
Then Andy responded a second time.
Wen Liang finally discovered all the aspects that could be exploited and made a quick decision.
At present, Ali's new statement goes in this direction as expected.
After various reports in the Internet media, Ali’s second statement vaguely emphasized that its core independent research and development only uses some open source Android applications, frameworks, and tools;
A long article suddenly became popular.
"Google's Ban and Aliyun's Coronation"
——On the collision between Aliyun’s long-term strategic plan for web app and Google’s development plan
The main title and subtitle come together.
[As we all know, our country has not had a self-developed operating system for a long time. We have been slow in developing computer systems for many years and have no chance (of course we now have the winning Kirin based on Linux);
However, in 2010, the world is ushering in a major change in the mobile Internet era. The emergence of smartphones is a new opportunity, an opportunity, the future, and a possibility!
We can see that many manufacturers have come to an end...
For example, Xiao Gaoliang released the widely acclaimed Mi series, which ushered in a new era of domestic mobile phone manufacturers, but no one paid attention to the operating system. I believe everyone knows that the Mi UI is a UI modified based on Android, and it is only a UI!
However, Aliyun noticed this!
Dr. Wang from Aliyun noticed this!
Dr. Wang led the team to climb one peak after another. Finally, in July 2011, they developed a self-developed independent mobile operating system and creatively supported cloud applications!
And it has received support from all aspects!
However, precisely because of its creative support for cloud applications, HTML5, and web applications, it has collided with the development plans of some companies!
From July 2011 to today, Aliyun OS has gone through countless days and nights. It has grown little by little, becoming more usable and smoother. It has finally grown up, it has chosen a suitable carrier, and then the black hands came.
Yes, Black Hand.
Google was unwilling to sit back and watch the rise of Aliyun OS. He used his position of speech to put pressure on Aliyun's partner Acer!
Acer was limited by cooperation and agreements, and under pressure, had to choose to end its cooperation with Aliyun!
At the same time, I discovered that Aliyun's long-term plan actually collided with some of Google's plans. I seemed to suddenly understand something.
You may not know much about Aliyun, but it is the largest independent cloud service provider in my country, no one!
And cloud services are the biggest trend in the future.
Combining cloud services with the general trend of mobile Internet is creative, leading and even superior!
So, here comes Google.
It does not dare to directly put pressure on Ali, and can only restrict Acer through the OHA agreement, thereby achieving the purpose of blocking Aliyun OS.
We absolutely cannot sit back and watch this happen.
This incident fully demonstrates that we must make greater efforts to develop our own operating system in order to avoid being controlled by others. I believe Aliyun OS is the direction that will guide us forward!
Note: The winning Kirin is completely different from the original Kirin. The original version modified using FreeBSD is 2.0!]
This short essay sparked a lot of discussion.
The direction of the wind is of course one sided.
In fact, starting from Saturday 20th, the general trend of public opinion has turned towards this one-sided support for Aliyun OS.
All other types of sounds are quickly drowned out.
"I believe that Google's ban is the best honor for Aliyun. I believe that with our support, Aliyun OS will definitely rise again!"
"Yes, we finally have our own operating system, and each of us must support it."
"No one should underestimate the Chinese market. We will definitely win!"
"Don't worry about temporary gains and losses, come on!"
"..."
…
The grand narrative angle that was raised increased the popularity of the discussion.
Then, on Wednesday morning, the Secretary-General of the Mobile Phone China Alliance accepted interviews with relevant media.
Secretary-General Wang told the media: "What we need to understand is that Google's deterrent to mobile phone manufacturers may not only be a warning, but it also has a trump card in its hand - canceling cooperation with manufacturers' Android products and related technology authorization."
"In fact, I think the argument between Ali and Andy Rubin is meaningless. Google's determination is firm and there is no possibility of change."
"According to the information I received, the main development direction of Aliyun OS is Web App, but since it has not established a good ecosystem for the time being, it can only rely on compatibility with the Android ecosystem."
"If it is not compatible with Google Android applications, Aliyun OS may not be able to win the favor of a certain scale of users. The lack of users will cause developers to not pay attention to this platform, creating a vicious cycle."
"What Aliyun needs to do now is to find a legal basis to prove that its own operating system can be compatible with Android applications without being compatible with Android. Otherwise, even if it believes that it does not have a copycat Android, it will only be able to cooperate with a copycat mobile phone manufacturer."
Although checking the information, you can find that the Mobile Phone China Alliance is just an unofficial organization jointly established by several manufacturers, but this name has naturally attracted a lot of attention.
It is therefore considered the official voice.
More netizens expressed their opinions.
“No wonder Google wants to suppress Aliyun OS.”
"The ecosystem is very important. Nokia knows it. It had to give up MeeGo because of the ecosystem."
“The same goes for Samsung’s Bada.”
"What's even more frightening is that currently more than 20 manufacturers, including Samsung, Lenovo, Acer, etc., have joined Google OHA, which shows that there may not be many important potential partners left for Aliyun OS."
"Secretary-General Wang has provided a solution, and there is still hope!"
"We have to believe in the law."

…………
In the afternoon of that day, Bolang officially and publicly launched its mobile phone business.
In a low-profile manner, some guests, mainly representatives from Yangcheng Urban Investment and Huagong Asset Management, were invited to cut the ribbon for the establishment of Bolang Terminal Technology Co., Ltd.
It's not a temporary time.
I completed the financing process on Saturday morning, agreed on the time for the money to be credited into the account, and then followed the custom of Yangcheng to see the master for a brief look.
It is believed that the few hours in the afternoon on the tenth day of the ninth lunar month are more appropriate time points in the near future.
It's really a coincidence.
Of course there is something even more coincidental.
Because in the mobile phone business, the violent method of exchanging money for time has been implemented to the end, the mobile phone SoC project designed and developed is certainly no exception.
The tape-out was started on October 8th. That night, we got on TSMC's tape-out line. After 16 nights and 15 and a half days, we experienced two tape-outs. After exhaustive verification, it was officially confirmed that it could be mass-produced before noon.
The cost is not big, just... 7.3 million US dollars, fuck!
The one who mainly rides the horse doesn’t need to be blown away yet.
For such a mobile phone SoC that I didn’t even bother to think of a product name, 50 million were sold out in the last tape-out verification process.
Counting the previous more than 300 million, plus the more than 40 million in various expenses in the intermediate links, the first generation of non-self-developed mobile phone SoCs cannot be said to have self-designed and developed mobile phone SoCs. Bolang spent 436.9 million.
Wen Liang felt like sprinkling water.
However, Wang Wanyu, the God of Wealth of Bolang, has been busy negotiating a 4 billion merger and acquisition with Shanda recently. As a result, she feels that she is extremely short of money. It took a little effort to convince herself that this is:
Pay tuition! Pay tuition! Pay tuition!
To sum up, October 24th is the day.
Bolang's mobile phone business has entered the formal development stage from every angle.
However, the third subsidiary under the name of Bolang Group was put into operation, and of course Bolang Group also promoted it on its official website.
We also conducted some small publicity through the official account of Xiaocheng Book.
In the context of the current popularity, it did not attract much attention.
But originally there wasn't much movement.
Mainly, the newly appointed CEO of Bolang Terminal, Mr. Ze, has placed the main promotion channel on the Stars forum.
…
3:33 p.m.
A new announcement has been posted on the Stars forum.
[Recently, Xingchen Studio and Bolang Group reached a cooperation. Xingchen Studio and all its team members were merged into Bolang Terminal Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Bolang Group.
The existing operating strategy remains unchanged, so everyone knows.
Attached is the Bolang terminal background:
Bolang Group recently jointly established Bolang Terminal Technology Co., Ltd. with Yangcheng Urban Investment and Huagong Asset Management, with a registered capital of 3 billion.
Bolang Group is responsible for daily operations and management, and Mr. Li Ze, Vice President of Bolang Group, serves as CEO.]
There is no mention of subscription yet, the registered capital is all paid in, that is, you must have 3 billion funds to pass the company registration.
The announcement was simultaneously posted to thousands of online discussion groups on the Stars forum.
Countless divers were blown out.
"As expected, it was acquired by Bolang, but Bolang's handiwork was too bad this time, with a registered capital of 3 billion!"
"The CEO is Li Ze again. He is really awesome. It seems that every time Bolang carries out important business, he is the one who takes over. I don't know whether Chen Jiaxin or Li Ze has a higher position within Bolang."
"It's hard to say. I feel like Li Ze may be more executive-oriented, and he does all the work with strong execution ability."
"Am I the only one who cares about whether there will be a new bug feedback reward program after the acquisition of Bolang?"
Administrator: "As for the new reward plan, it will be released with the new version update on Friday. What I can tell you is that a new cash reward of 5 million has been added in the second phase, which is not included in the remaining rewards of the first phase of testing;
In addition, the upper management of the studio and the company are aware of the current complex international situation and are brewing new measures on the app store system, and there will also be some incentive plans in this regard."
At the same time, Li Ze once again spoke out on Xiaocheng Book under the ID of "Stars".
"Thank you for your concern about my whereabouts through private messages. All members of our Xingchen Studio have been merged into Bolang Terminal Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Bolang Group;
My friends and I get along well with our new colleagues. We are all very happy to join Bolang. This is a new beginning that we never imagined!
By the way, today I can finally tell you loudly that our journey is to reach the stars and the sea!" -
