Reborn multinational giant

On Saturday, school was closed. Fang Zhe and Fatty bought some fruit early in the morning and went straight to Zheng Siwen's house.

The last time Fang Zhe came to Zheng Siwen's house was when Zheng Siwen had just bought a house for his parents to hold a housewarming banquet.Both the praise from neighbors in the neighborhood or Zheng Siwen's polite hospitality were all kept in mind by Fang Zhe's mother, who took it out to educate Fang Zhe every few times.

I also said that when I was young, I always saw you playing with people, but when I grew up, I didn't see you so good with them.Of course, these words are said every time Fang Zhe provokes Yang Xiuying's anger, and Yang Xiuying would normally not take these words to Fang Zhe so as not to dampen Fang Zhe's self-confidence.

Thinking back to what had happened before, Fang Zhe just felt warm, no matter whether it was scoffing or nagging, it felt like home.

The one who opened the door was Aunt Wu, the nanny of Zheng Siwen's house. Fang Zhe and the fat man called auntie obediently and were invited in.Zheng Siwen is cooking in the kitchen, which is also one of his excellent places. Every time he goes home, he must cook for his parents by himself, and it is delicious.

In his words, after staying abroad for a long time, he still likes the taste of home, and over time, his cooking skills have improved.Fang Zhe's previous life was also influenced by him. After going to Yanjing, he started to learn how to cook. Of course, the taste has to be said otherwise.

"You two are here." Zheng Siwen walked out of the kitchen with the dishes.

He put the food on the dinner table, and then asked: "Did you have dinner?"

Fang Zhe replied: "I have eaten it, I ate it before I came."

"After I have eaten it, I will try my crafts to see if I have regressed." Zheng Siwen said, and asked Aunt Wu to add two pairs of chopsticks.

Fang Zhe and the fat man didn't have ink marks. Because there were elders at the dinner table, the topics basically revolved around the parents. After a few people had eaten together, Zheng Siwen called Fang Zhe and the fat man to the bedroom.

Entering the bedroom, Zheng Siwen signaled Fang Zhe and the other two to find a place to sit down, and then said: "Da Niu Ren, do you have your phone, let me see the game you made."

Fang Zhe took out the phone from his pocket and handed it to Zheng Siwen.

"You have enough money." Zheng Siwen looked at the iphone he handed over, teased him, and Fang Zhe also introduced him to two games.

"Just the bottom two, one is called flappybird and the other is stickhero."

Zheng Siwen didn't say anything. He clicked on the two games and played them separately. Not to mention the first mini game, but the second one did make him feel very novel, creative and fun.

During this period, Fang Zhe and the fat man sat aside quietly watching him play. After a few minutes, Zheng Siwen handed the phone to Fang Zhe and said:

"The game is not bad, it's fun, and you can think of a multi-language version. It looks like a lot of work has been done."

"If, as you said on the phone, you release it to Apple’s new appstore, there should still be a market. Many of my friends overseas predict that the stock price of Apple’s iphone3g will rise sharply after the release. The application permissions are open to third-party developers, and they only work on the platform and ecology, which is of great benefit to them and the developers."

Fang Zhe responded after hearing: "Both game systems are very simple, and the text is just a few common words. It is better to translate multiple languages, and I plan to send it overseas from the very beginning. It is designed in accordance with the multilingual version."

At the end Fang Zhe added:

"Smartphones are just emerging all over the world. I have heard that mobile phones equipped with Google's Android system will be released for a few months. I believe that there will be many mobile games that support both Apple and Android. This is a rare experience for me. Opportunity."

Zheng Siwen was very surprised that Fang Zhe could play games. He didn't expect that he was also concerned about the development of the mobile phone industry. He couldn't help but think about the development of the mobile phone industry. He wanted to see what Fang Zhe knew.

"For Android, it depends on which step Google and other manufacturers can do. However, recently there has been news that Nokia may acquire all the remaining Symbian shares from other manufacturers, and a joint organization will be established to authorize each manufacturer. .

However, I and many people in the industry believe that Nokia takes Symbian as its own bag this time, and it is likely to push other manufacturers to the Android camp established by Google, or Microsoft and other smart phone platforms."

Zheng Siwen’s words reminded Fang Zhe that his previous life seemed to be June 2008, that is, this month. Nokia bought the remaining Saipan shares from several major manufacturers such as Ericsson Samsung. There is no news on the Internet in this life, but It is estimated that it is only a matter of time, and it is unlikely that there will be any changes.It now appears that the smartphone war between Nokia and many mobile phone manufacturers has begun.

Seeing that what he said aroused Fang Zhe's contemplation, Zheng Siwen continued:

"Other mobile phone manufacturers are willing to sell their remaining Symbian shares to Nokia, which shows that they have made up their minds to take advantage of the opportunity of smartphone explosions to overtake corners. Nokia has dominated the global feature phone market for more than ten years, and now they want to continue to use smartphones The era dominates the world and even competes for market share of other mobile phone manufacturers. This is something other manufacturers do not want to see."

After Fang Zhe listened, he felt a little clear in his heart, and said, "

So, Google gave them this opportunity.Although Nokia has a strong leading position and advantages in the feature phone market, its starting point is not much higher than other manufacturers in the smartphone market, and even because of the disadvantages of the Symbian system itself, it may not be as good as Android, let alone Say that the Apple system is now open."

Zheng Siwen looked at Fang Zhe in surprise. He didn't expect that a college student who had been in school all day could see this. He nodded in agreement and said:

"Yes, Google also wants to use Nokia's Android system, but Nokia, which accounts for nearly half of the global mobile phone market, can abandon Symbian, listen to its command, and be its younger brother."

"Brother Mosquito, what do you think will happen to Nokia in the future?"

Fang Zhe was curious and wanted to know what Zheng Siwen would give Nokia's future predictions based on the information he knows now.

Zheng Siwen thought for a while and said:

"It's hard to say that although nearly half of the global mobile phone market is now in the hands of Nokia, this is only the result of his excellence in products in the era of feature phones. If in the era of smart phones, Nokia can't quickly open the situation and launch good products. , It is very likely that other manufacturers will bite off many market shares.

Especially now, compared to Nokia, other manufacturers have more fateful reasons. If consumers don’t buy smartphones equipped with smart operating systems such as Android, then selling their shares in Symbian is equivalent to leaving Nokia to continue to dominate. The bane."

"However, on the whole, these big manufacturers will not be so reckless. The success of ios has confirmed that they stand in the Android camp. Moreover, Nokia is only a Finnish company, while other manufacturers are connected to various countries and represent many people behind it. Interests.

Therefore, the most likely situation in the future is that Nokia will give up part of the market to other manufacturers. If Nokia can launch a good smartphone product as soon as possible, then it can still guarantee its leading position in the global market, even if it can Continuing the quality of the past, it is very possible to slowly regain market share from other manufacturers."

Fang Zhe admired his analysis. Until 2010, Nokia was still the manufacturer with the largest share of the global mobile phone market, including the smartphone field, and Nokia was also the dominant player.The only difference is that its market share has been eroded by ios and Android. The gap between products and user experience of smartphones equipped with Symbian system is gradually widening with that of ios and Android.

Unfortunately, Nokia’s self-rescue measures at the time were to abandon the Symbian system and embrace Microsoft. It invited Elop, the former head of Microsoft’s office department, known as the "Trojan horse", to be the leader and did a series of very unwise things. Slowly playing myself to death, and finally had to sell the mobile phone business, which is embarrassing.

The fat man sitting by the side listening to the two chatting was gutlessly depressed. The two of them started chatting, but he couldn't participate because he didn't pay attention to these at all, and could only watch the two talk.
