Chapter 1271 twisted into a rope

The current environment in China is that everyone is used to free everything you get from the Internet, the operating system is free, the software is free, and the games are free (pirated)... It is difficult to make money by selling software in China, and the payment method is also a problem. ∽↗∽↗,

It would be fine if the wps software is preinstalled on the phone, but if the user wants to buy it by himself, people who are not vague about buying a box of 20 yuan cigarettes on weekdays will feel distressed if they ask him to spend 5 yuan to buy a software.

"I know," Lin Zheng nodded: "We are also considering this issue."

"Oh..." Qiu Bojun subconsciously sat upright and looked at Lin Zheng with hope: "So is there a good way for Lianchuang Technology?"

Lin Zheng said: "It's hard to say a good idea. I think that taking advantage of the fact that the number of domestic netizens is not large, it can just cultivate users' awareness of payment. After a few years, everyone gets used to free, it will be really troublesome at that time. I think the 'server-client' model of online games is good..."

"The 'server-client' mode of online games?" Qiu Bojun frowned: "To be honest, Mr. Lin, we have considered this mode, but the effect does not seem to be good."

Kingsoft's antivirus software, firewall and other products adopt this "server-client" model, but the effect is not satisfactory. Qiu Bojun is just a matter of course, but Lin Zheng smiled: "Just Qiu is talking about the model that Kingsoft is now executing? Our method is a bit different from Kingsoft's model... Well, we can talk about this slowly in the future, but Mr. Qiu, your actions should be faster. The European market has a very large demand for smartphones. The European market may be our focus in recent years."

Lin Zheng was unwilling to talk deeply about this issue. Qiu Bojun was a little regretful, but compared to regret, he was more excited: if he could really use the IQ platform, he would have 70% confidence to make WPS a flagship product of Kingsoft in Europe. The reason is very simple. Even if he looked at the world, WPS was the only office software product comparable to Microsoft's office set. Now the number of computers in Europe is more than 150 million. There are at least 100 million computers that need to be installed with Oie software. Even if Kingsoft wins 10% of the market, it will be 10 million. Such a large market is enough for Kingsoft to eat.

………………………………………

As a recognized first generation programmer and known as the "No. 1 programmer in China", when Lin Zheng and Qiu Bojun appeared at the door of the venue together, many people who knew Qiu Bojun took a breath: What is the rhythm?

It can be said that among the dozens of people on the scene, perhaps half of them did not know who Qiu Bojun was, but they must have heard of Qiu Bojun's name, and they must have used the WPS made by Qiu Bojun. Now that they saw Qiu Bojun appearing together with Lin Zheng, many people immediately realized one thing: Lin Zheng is going to have a big game this time.

"I believe everyone is here today. I believe everyone knows it. It is for the smartphone." Lin Zheng's speech adhered to the usual concise style and went straight to the topic: "I know that everyone is concerned about this, so I will just say it directly. According to the different technical R&D capabilities of everyone, Lianchuang Technology has divided the types of technology diffusion into two categories: one is directly authorized for technology, and the other is OEM by Lianchuang Technology."

As soon as Lin Zheng finished speaking, the crowd immediately became a commotion. Someone stood up impatiently and asked, "Mr. Lin, what you mean is that we can get it as long as we want. Right?"

"That's right," Lin Zheng nodded affirmatively: "No matter how we all cooperate, as long as we want to launch our own brand of linu system smartphones or ja&va mobile phones, we will definitely be able to do it."

Very good!

Lin Zheng's words made everyone overjoyed. Just now, everyone was still nervous, afraid that they would have a trip in vain. Unexpectedly, Lin Zheng was so easy to speak, and he was already shouting out in a hurry: "Mr. Lin, please tell me what the specific conditions are. What kind of company can directly obtain technical authorization and what conditions are there?"

"Okay," Lin Zheng nodded: "First, let's talk about those companies that can directly obtain linu authorization, those with the ability to develop mobile phones separately..."

When Lin Zheng said this, everyone looked at Lao Ren in unison.

Lin Zheng just did not realize it, and then said: "Lianchuang Technology will provide them with technical support and linu smartphone operating system. For each authorized company that produces a mobile phone equipped with linu system, it will need to pay 99 yuan of authorization fee to Lianchuang Technology..."

“Wow…”

Before Lin Zheng finished speaking, the following was already in an uproar: 99 yuan? So cheap?

Of course, 99 yuan is not considered cheap, but if you compare the $38 price of the Windows Poket2002 system provided by Microsoft, which is equivalent to the authorization price of 315.4 yuan, it will be so cheap that it cannot be cheaper: less than one-third of the Microsoft authorization price.

After Lianchuang Technology's Linux smartphone was launched, we have not compared Lianchuang Technology's Linux system with Microsoft's Windows Poket2002 system. The conclusion is that in terms of the smoothness of the system operation, Lisheng's Linux system is much smoother than Windows Poket2002. The biggest advantage of Windos Poket2002 is that it has better business performance. The poket oie equipped with can realize the seamless connection between the Oie files on the handheld client and the desktop computer. Now let's take a look at Qiu Bojun standing next to Lin Zheng...

Everyone couldn't help but start muttering: Lin Zheng has great ambitions!

"99 yuan? This price is really not expensive."

"Yes, yes, Lin Zheng is much more kind than Microsoft..."

"Mr. Lin has been kind enough for a day or two. I was just talking, Mr. Lin can't cheat us..."

Everyone was talking about it. Although many people knew that their company did not have the ability to develop smartphones, and only a few lucky people were able to obtain the linu system authorization, didn’t Lin Zheng say that everyone has a share!

Even Lao Ren couldn't help but be moved: It was not that he had not inquired about Lin Zheng before, but Lin Zheng kept his mouth silent and had not disclosed any clear news. He just said that it would be cheaper than Microsoft's Windos Poket2002. Lao Ren thought the price was about 150 to 200, but he didn't expect it to be so cheap, 99 yuan, which is really a big sale for vomiting blood.

"Mr. Lin. If Lianchuang Technology is asked OEM, how will the price be calculated?" someone asked loudly.

"Simple, depending on the configuration, the minimum delivery price is 3,000."

3000?

The venue, which was just crowded, suddenly fell into a cold situation: the ex-factory price of 3,000 yuan. This is a bit expensive.

"Isn't it too expensive?" someone muttered.

"Yes, now you can buy a cheaper phone for only 700 or 800 yuan. 3,000 yuan will be handed over to us. Keep some profits for yourself. The terminal price must not be above 5,000 yuan."

Although the prices of several smartphones sold on the market are not lower than 6,000, in the future, smartphones will inevitably usher in a price reduction wave. It is hard to say whether they can maintain the 5,000 line. Of course, everyone is not happy... But they forgot that they don't have to pay for labor and R&D costs. Even if the terminal price is 5,000, as manufacturers, they can make more than 1,000 yuan per machine, and the profit margin is so large that it is not satisfactory.

Faced with the "common call", Lin Zheng was unmoved and said lightly: "The ex-factory price of 3,000 is a price that Lianchuang Technology can ensure that everyone has money to make after calculation. If anyone thinks this price is expensive, Lianchuang Technology will not force everyone."

As soon as Lin Zheng said this, the person who had just muttered to express his dissatisfaction immediately closed his mouth tightly.

No one is a fool. Although Lianchuang Technology’s asking price is relatively bad, who has made it impossible to develop a smartphone and is not convinced? If you have the ability, you can also create a smartphone operating system. Even if you go to find an international OEM giant, don’t talk about whether someone is willing to produce it for you. Even if you are willing to produce it for you, the price will not be less than 3,500 yuan. If that is the case, why bother?

"We also hope that everyone will increase their investment in R&D, and at the same time, we will cultivate the smartphone market with Lianchuang Technology. To be honest, the reason why the working price we set is so high is that it has not formed a scale effect and cannot effectively reduce costs. Everyone knows that Lianchuang Technology's mobile phone chips use an arm architecture, and the authorization fee is very high. There is really no way to do this..."

After a pause, Lin Zheng smiled on his face: "But let me tell you good news, Lianchuang Technology is in contact with the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Institute of General Staff 56, and plans to develop a new central processor based on the MiPS architecture and alpha architecture. As long as it can be successful, the price will be effectively reduced."

Lin Zheng's words scared everyone again: No? Lianchuang Technology is actually preparing to develop a central processor with the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the General Staff?

Central processors have always been a heart-wrenching problem for Chinese people. No one dares to think about doing this with their own strength, and they don’t even dare to think about it. But now, Lianchuang Technology not only thinks about it, but has it done so?

In a trance, looking at Lin Zheng on the stage, everyone suddenly felt the illusion that Lin Zheng's figure was extremely tall.

Lao Ren couldn't sit still, and he didn't even know about such a big thing?! He stood up and asked Lin Zheng: "Mr. Lin, are you really going to be your own CPU?"

"To be precise, what we are not doing is a CPU, but a CPU for embedded systems," Lin Zheng changed his concept a little: "It's not the same as the CPU on our desktop computer in the general sense."

You kid, are you still playing with a fancy gun with me? Lao Ren laughed and said to Lin Zheng honestly and bluntly: "This is because you are not kind anymore. How can you miss Huawei like this? You are the one of us!"

"I have no problem here," Lin Zheng said happily: "As for the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the General Staff, you have to find a way for yourself."

Looking at the country, Lianchuang Technology is the only company with experience in developing CPUs. This is also the confidence that they can develop central processing units with the Institute of Computing Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the General Staff Institute of 56. However, Huawei does not even have experience in designing large-scale integrated circuits. If they want to intervene in it, it is hard to say whether the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the General Staff will agree.

Lao Ren didn't say much. He had made up his mind and flew to the capital immediately after turning back. He had always been keen on the perception of opportunity and was sensitive to it that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Huawei.

"Do you have anything else to say? Why are you all looking for the boss? Well, I know that the boss is more famous than me," Lin Zheng smiled and said, "I know everyone must be very curious. Today's party is obviously a gathering in our mobile phone industry, so why are there so many friends in the software industry? Now, taking this opportunity, I officially announced a decision from Lianchuang Technology: on all mobile phones equipped with Linux systems, a client of the 'icq store' will be integrated. You can regard this client as a store, which sells various game software, digital copyright music and various mobile application software. At the same time, you can upload your own software works through this client and make profits by selling it in the 'icq store'.

Considering the current situation in China, although the ‘ICQ Store’ will also be equipped with which smartphones sold in China, the market it mainly faces is still Europe and the United States. Well, as you see, Kingsoft’s WPS will be the first heavyweight work of the ‘ICQ Store’…”

Before Lin Zheng finished speaking, the bosses of the software companies that had been hiding in the corner suddenly went crazy!

Compared with the mobile phone manufacturing giants with assets of 10 digits and wealthy assets in the venue, even though Lin Zheng invited all the elites in the industry today, he still couldn't compare with electronic giants such as Huawei, TCL, Xia Xin, etc. Everyone consciously hid in the corner. The best idea before was that Lin Zheng wanted to ask everyone to tailor a batch of software for their Linux system. It was a one-time transaction. It was done after it was done. But now, what did you hear? Can you upload it to their "ICQ store" to sell for money?! Facing the European and American markets?!

Thinking of the importance of copyright and crackdown on piracy in the European and American markets, everyone's saliva could not help but flow. (To be continued.)
