Rewriting the Technological Scenario

The mobile phone business department is directly in the R & D center. Because the current mobile phone business department is basically research and development, the employee of this business department saw Meng Qi did not say habits, generally the person in charge to ask Meng Qian Interest, why do others continue to do anywhere?

Meng Qian naturally does not bother them, let's take a look at the development of several core technologies. First, it is a very important technology on the future smartphone, multi-touch technology.

Before the birth of the iPhne, most of the mobile phones must have physical buttons. If there is no button, there is no way to implement mobile phones, even if there is a touch phone, it is also a simple design of a button or direction button, but designed The reason is because the resistive touch screen is not good.

The emergence of iPhne breaks this tradition, uses capacitive screens and multi-touch technology to realize mobile phones without entity keyboards.

However, about multi-touch technology, online seem to think that Apple monopolizes multi-touch technology, which is completely incapable, from multi-touch technology itself, there is no company monopoly, and there is no way to monopolize. Because multi-touch technology dates back to the multi-touch screen of the induction index finger of the Toronto University in 1992, 94 years of Microsoft began to study this stuff, then Ib also keeps research, the world's first Touch screen smartphone is ibsin published in 1993.

And there are a lot of patents involved in multi-touch techniques, there are thousands.

Therefore, Apple only acquired a multi-touch product produced by John Elias and Rohwestman, IGESTURE board and multi-touch keyboard, but at a multi-touch technology field, apple is implemented. If you can't monitor, the wind group also realizes the monopoly, no one wants.

Therefore, Apple monopoly or has created multi-touch technology technology.

Just as the company Yilong, this company has made Apple for more than 5 million meters because of the multi-touch technology related patents, and reached a patented cross agreement with Apple.

As the rebirth, Meng Qian is sure that when the company is a little funds in 200 years, I will definitely start the layout of various future useful patents. One of them is not much more touch technology. This will come to the R & D center asked. There have been more than 200 patents about multi-touch technology, and Meng Qian is basically practical. After Apple, if you want to make trouble in this field, it is not to fight each other.

With a multi-touch technology, the next question that needs to be solved is to find the right LCD screen manufacturer. This problem has a fierce argument in the company. The debate is that it is necessary to use the company's own products.

It has been a period of time with Sony's cooperation, but also from Sony bought some lifelong patent licensing, the current LCD production level of the wind group is able to do, but there is also a gap between Sony Samsung, and some people are in the second echelon. If you don't recognize your own products, since this phone is going to go, then use Sony's screen.

But another one has put forward two questions. First, this important component is available in its own product, and the higher the sales volume, the greater the advantage, the apple is also the screen when the screen is also selected. Thousands of choices, one of which is a choice criterion is a timely supply capacity, one reason why the Nikon photolithography is because the lens is doing it.

At the same time, this staff member believes that our backward is only temporary. As long as it is willing to do, it will exceed Samsung Sony, no matter whether it is confident, now many of the big wind groups have indeed a strong confidence.

With the days when the mobile phone conference is getting closer, the final Meng Qian made a decision, using his own screen, this decision has a little bit of a ingredient.

After leaving a multi-touch R & D center, Meng Qian arrived in the mold research and development center. This is a four-year-old department. Dozens were denied by Meng Qian.

Another department that was quickly mad is the UI design department. A mobile phone that everyone has never seen before, a new mobile phone that is completely imagined, how to do UI design, this is very difficult.

Even if Meng Qia actually orally describes the common UI design of the future smartphone, the UI designers turned Meng Qian's oral product and a not easy thing, and it is designed, there are always some people like to bring their own ideas. .

So Meng Qian saw various UI design programs, before I saw a UI designer design smartphone interface mimics the computer interface, the left half is a program, the right half is so empty ...

Going forward, Meng Qian finally saw a departments of talking and laughing, that is, the system sector, in fact, the system department should be the most bitter, at least in Apple.

According to the record of "iPhne Secret History", "Jobs Chuan" and other works, the programmer responsible for iPhne system design is almost more than 0 hours a week, which is directly who doesn't know how long I don't want to go home, and divorced a large number of employees. .

Before, the mobile phone system and computer system were actually two things. It is not simple to create a huge smartphone system, but it also said that the system is the most difficult is to design and architecture, you need to know what the system you have designed is probably. What functions need to be needed, and the Apple system is actually still tired of apple employees in the imaginary stage.

For Meng Qian, the main design direction is generally clear, and when he participated in the intelligent operating system research and development, the Android architecture has been studied for a long time, and he is a architect, so Meng Qian has two in 2006. Architects have made a smartphone system architecture of future companies.

However, there is still a lot of details, and employees are also very serious every day. They can only say that there should be no apple that should be responsible for the system.

The next very important department is that the mobile phone chip department is, but in the chip problem, Meng Qian is a compromise. It is the baseband. When I wanted to cooperate with the Beidou system, the wind group has invested a large capital research and development baseband chip. But that is to go to the 4G era, the 3G era has chosen compromise, because the input production is not cost-effective.

However, with Apple will use the baseband chip of Bo Tong, the wind group chose the current baseband chip old big Texas instrument in the 3G era.

However, although the baseband chip is compromised, the mobile phone processor Meng Qian does not intend to compromise, IPHNE2G does not accidentally use Samsung's AR architecture chip, AR is rapidly developed, but that is the thing I used.

This world, Meng Qian can't be idle, on the chip architecture, Meng Qian can't do a mature architecture like the system, but has been working hard.

Meng Qian wants to create a new architecture, similar to RIS-V, one of the four major architectures, is an open source instruction set architecture based on a streamlined instruction set, but it is only referring to RIS-V.

The wind group architecture takes several advantages of RIS-V, streamlined, low power, modular, and scalable.

The wind group's architecture focuses on these four directions, and friends who are familiar with the architecture must have already understood that Meng Qian's goal is definitely just a mobile phone.

In fact, the architecture is just a structure, the same architecture, put it in Intel and AD, which makes the chip are different, because there is still a lot of other work on the architecture, involving RTL coding, layout, semiconductor manufacturing, packaging, etc. A series of technologies, this is a system engineering.

It is better than giving two authors, but it is definitely different, and the outline is just outline.

So the reason why RIS-V is successful, not how strong the architecture itself, but is that the advantage of RIS-V can give users a lot of flexibility to meet different application scenarios.

Therefore, RIS-V is particularly suitable for ecological dependence relatively small closed or semi-closed products, deep embedded or emerging Internet of Things, including an edge computing field of embedded artificial intelligence and the desired scene.

But as a new architecture, it will inevitably face a natural problem, ecology.

For the simplest example, the RIS-V just came out of the related compiler, development tools and software development environments, even if it was later, it was not more than AR and X6 commercial compilers and IDE.

The ecosystem of the instruction set architecture is a very complicated and long process as the ecological growth of the system, and ten years have been normal.

Of course, the most important thing is to have a leading sheep, like X6 has an INDS, X6 really built an ecosystem, and Ar encounters a smartphone to have the future. Success.

Now the wind group, at least Meng Qian's goal is to become the leader of smartphones. Secondly, the wind group has a big foundation. You can make IDEs to your architecture, you can configure industrial software for your own architecture. Also hold the moment.

This is the reason for Meng Qian has to continuously put pressure on employees. The success of smartphones is that the wind group can lead an important future product, but more importantly, you can lead a architecture, lead a batch of technology, create one Ecology, breaking through a monopoly, so that Huaxia is in an important field without having to be subject to people.

Even let others, subject to Huaxia.
