Reborn multinational giant

Chapter 131 OEM Production

The three people in front of them seemed to be eager to confirm with Fang Zhe again.

Fang Zhe smiled and said, "It is indeed monthly revenue. I don't think you need to do that. Dean Lin, you should have heard that when the appstore was first launched, Sega’s game made 5 million in three days. US dollars."

All three of them stared at Fang Zhe blankly. They didn't speak. After a while, Lin Xiaobin replied:

"I always thought that it was Sega who promoted the appstore in order to cooperate with Apple. The data was falsified. If you want to make money, who is still making software? Didn't they all go to the appstore to make games?

However, I believe it now. No wonder the US headquarters attaches so much importance to AndroidMarket. If it seems to operate well, this is a new core business."

Mr. Lei also said with emotion: "Yes, I didn't expect it to make money so much. Just a few days after the appstore was opened, they blocked the interface for viewing data from the outside world. I thought they had a ghost in their hearts. Now it seems that even There is a ghost, but also a little ghost.

Apple announced two days ago that last year, Apple sold more than 17 million iPhones, and the total number of downloads of apps on the appstore exceeded 500 million. I thought that their data was a bit watery, but now it seems that smart The explosion of mobile phones and mobile Internet is much more powerful than I thought."

Fang Zhe thought after listening, what is 17 million a year?In later generations, Apple sold more mobile phones than this in a month. Apple has accumulated more than 200 billion US dollars of net profit overseas in the past few years. How do you think it came from?Isn't it all fruit powder sold for kidney?

"More than 30 million a month, our institute's research funding for a year is only over 40 million, and this is still a foreign exchange earning. If it is ten years earlier, this will be praised by the above."

Professor Liu Yuxi was also very impressed. He did not expect this student of his old classmate to be so capable. No wonder he seemed quite proud when he called himself at the time. At that time, he thought, what is so good about a student starting a company? Yes, among his students, from scientists to bosses from all walks of life, and even two student companies have achieved the listing, but after all, An Institute of Technology is in a third-tier city like Anyang, and he can understand the feelings of old classmates.

Now that the comparison is down, he feels that he is inferior to his old classmates. The reason is simple. Fang Zhe’s age. Students his age are either still in school or just preparing for an internship.

Although some of them started their own businesses, I haven’t heard of any student making a noise. In the past few years, the most successful one at this age was a student seven years ago who partnered with others to do software outsourcing before graduation. He made more than two million yuan. For this reason, the old dean specially approved him to give a speech at the college's graduation ceremony.

"What are the names of the games your company operates? Since they are so profitable, they should be ranked in the top of the bestseller list? I don't believe that all games in the Apple appstore are so profitable." Lin Xiaobin continued to ask.

"One is called "Fruit Games", the English name is "FruitGames", the other is "Don't Step On White Tiles", and the English name is "Don'tTapTheWhiteTile". Two games happen to be on the top of the best-selling list." Fang Although Zhe said this in an extremely humble tone, when he said the first or second place, even he himself was a little proud, even if he was reborn, it would be difficult for him to occupy the first or second place on the appstore bestseller list.

The three of them looked at him with weird eyes, and Mr. Lei said, "Good boy, it really gives us Chinese people a long face, but if you just made a little money, then the other apps on the appstore will not survive. !"

Fang Zhe thought about each other. The market value of Xiaomi in later generations has reached nearly 100 billion U.S. dollars. Don't you, Mr. Lei, have been nagging about making money all day, and I have learned from you too!

At this time, Lin Xiaobin seemed to have thought of something. He asked in an uncertain tone: "Your company is called Huizhong?".

"Do you know our company?" Fang Zhe was surprised.

Lin Xiaobin showed a smile on his face, thinking that it was true. He smiled and said: "I know, how can I not know, the US technology circle was a lot of noise the other day, and Apple also held a press conference for this. Although I am in China Of course, we still understand the news trends of some large foreign companies."

He paused, and then said: "In February, our company’s AndroidMarket will soon allow the upload of paid applications. When you arrive, you have to remember to take the lead. Don’t look at Android now being inferior to Apple. Its future potential, but It is limitless."

Professor Liu Yuxi nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, Google takes the lead. The 84 top hardware manufacturers, software developers and telecom operators in the world cooperate, which basically includes the world's top mobile phone manufacturers.

Moreover, Google has also open-sourced the Android code. Anyone and company with an idea to build a mobile phone can be united by it. In contrast, Apple, although Apple has a leading edge, but the entire business ecological chain cannot be inserted by others. Apple wants to One pick is not so easy."

President Lei shook his head. He had a different view of Professor Liu Yuxi's views. He thought about it and said:

"I personally think that Apple's opportunity is still quite big. To be honest, I always think that Android is a product that Google has made to snipe Apple. From design to application, many places are imitated Apple iPhones.

Sooner or later, these two companies are going to litigate. I think there are already signs, but with so many manufacturers in the Android camp holding so many patents in their hands, they are not afraid of Apple. The two of them may be stuck together.

In addition, in terms of system experience alone, closed Apple is better than open source and chaotic Android from user experience to security.But in market competition, there are so many alliance vendors in the Android camp, and they are dozens of times stronger than Apple. In terms of price, Android is more close to the people than Apple. This has a great advantage.

In addition, Nokia has neither cooperated with Apple nor joined the Android camp. It has always been independent. Microsoft also intends to intervene in the field of mobile phone operating systems. Therefore, the global mobile phone market may be extremely lively in the future."

"It's this battle. I don't know if there are companies from our mainland participating in the war." Lin Xiaobin sighed.

Lei Jun took a look at him and said: "ZTE and Huawei may be moving in some overseas regions, but the United States may be difficult to enter. Although the two of them have accumulated some patents in the mobile phone industry, they have a relationship with Samsung. Compared with the top multinational giants like Apple, there is still a big gap, but in China, I am very optimistic about their popularization of smartphones."

Fang Zhe saw that the three of them finally talked about mobile phones, thinking that his purpose of coming today was finally stepped on, he interjected: "I think, since Android is open source, even a start-up mobile phone company has no chance. Right!"

When he heard this, the three of them all smiled. Professor Liu Yuxi explained: "Mobile phones, electronic products that integrate a large number of high-tech technologies and patents, can't be made by any startup company."

Fang Zhe thought to himself that the concepts of the three people still stayed in the traditional thinking of the past. It seemed that he wanted to explain to them. He said:

"Not at all. The first Android phone released by Google this time is not from Baodao’s htc. Now that the mobile phone foundry industry is so developed, startups only need to figure out the operating system, such as making one based on Android. The set is very suitable for our Chinese localized mobile phone operating system, and then complete the design, process, production chain and supply chain of the whole machine, then you can make your own mobile phone."

Professor Liu Yuxi listened and nodded thoughtfully: "Oh? Your idea is ok. OEM production. In the past, many industries in our country did this. They did not have the production capacity. They only did design and quality control. , From product design to quality control, and finally to integrate the OEM, it will be regarded as its own product."

"Professor Liu, do you think this is feasible?" Mr. Lei was very curious about this.

Fang Zhe glanced at him. Does Mr. Lei already have the idea of ​​making a mobile phone?
