With the end of the developer conference, major media reported on it the next day. This is the second time Luo Sheng has publicly shared his Internet thinking and ideas, which caused huge repercussions in the industry for a while, and the industry also had a big discussion about it.

What the media pays more attention to is Luo Sheng's incomparable expectations for sorting out and predicting the four stages of the Internet.

By now, people have gradually stopped paying too much attention to his age, and paid more attention to his influence in the industry.

Luo Sheng has undoubtedly become an idol in the eyes of countless people, and has even become the object of imitation by many entrepreneurs. Because he is so compelling, he is even cooler than those long-established Silicon Valley bigwigs.

In the past, people in China worshipped Silicon Valley and imitated Silicon Valley, but now there is a person who has to be convinced even of Silicon Valley, and put down his body to study and imitate very sincerely.

It is worth mentioning that after Eric Schmidt returned to Google headquarters, as expected, he pressed down with a backhand, actively and secretly preparing for the smartphone operating system.

As a mature large-scale technology company and a multinational company, as long as you are not stupid, you will definitely not put your own destiny in the hands of others.

The third-party developers in this cooperation, whether it's Yahoo or Google, are all supporting the mobile Internet, advocating loudly, and using their influence in the industry to endorse Luo Sheng's platform.

Maybe……

But Luo Sheng thinks more, and he is more willing to believe that these partners are so hardworking, hoping that the old international mobile phone manufacturers will enter this field as soon as possible, which is a way to realize pressure.

In this way, there will be more mobile Internet platforms. As the third-party developers of the mobile Internet, they do not want to be bound to death by AOS. If there is no alternative second platform, in case the mobile Internet takes off in the future , then it depends on Luo Sheng's face.

Scenarios are one thing, and they are often not taken seriously.

In fact, they are very afraid of Luo Sheng's dominance, which is definitely not a good thing for third-party developers.

Unfortunately,

The traditional mobile phone industry giants have been mediocre and are still not optimistic about the touch screen, which can make Google and other Internet giants angry and curse a bunch of stupid pigs behind their backs.

What is the situation of traditional mobile phone manufacturers? The head of Benmai jumped out to sing the opposite, seeing Luo Sheng and the Internet giants having a lot of fun, they also paid attention.

But the traditional mobile phone giants still seem to be very stubborn, they just don’t want to change. In fact, only they know it, and they are actually very entangled.

At present, it is less than half a month before the release of the Azure-X mobile phone, and whether it is Motorola, Nokia, Benmai and other international manufacturers in the traditional mobile phone industry, their internal executives are holding frequent meetings.

The discussion was to deal with the birth of touch-screen mobile phones, and the result was a tangle. In fact, they really wanted to enter, but they were not fully prepared, and the investment was not a small amount.

In order to build this device, Luo Sheng spent three and a half years. In addition to his long-term participation in the development sequence, he spent more than two billion dollars to create this work under these conditions.

Moreover, many core components are supplied by North American suppliers. Once the United States imposes a ban or something, the Côte d'Azur may face the danger of shock.

Luo Sheng is constantly making up for this shortcoming and improving himself.

This can also indirectly illustrate how difficult it is.

These traditional giants are caught in a tangled situation. Among them, Nokia is the most "stubborn". To say that the best-selling mobile phone brand in the world is now Nokia, which currently occupies about 70% of the global mobile phone market share.

As the first to propose the concept of a smartphone, Nokia launched the Symbian OS v9 version of the Symbian system last year, improving software and content protection, and supporting new ARM processors. By November this year, Nokia's global sales of Symbian smartphones have already Breaking through 100 million units can be said to be in full swing, all of which are rapidly occupying the market by virtue of its strong market share.

Life is so smooth, how can you be willing to mess around?

Of course not, but these traditional giants are not doing nothing. In fact, they are still very active, but their enthusiasm is used in the wrong place.

With the end of the first developer conference of AOS, it has caused huge repercussions in the industry. The traditional mobile phone giants seem to have a tacit understanding and sing badly together. The public opinion is very serious and positive.

...

Cote d'Azur corporate headquarters.

Qin Weimu came to Luo Sheng's office door, knocked a few times and received no response. After a while, she tried to open the door on her own initiative.

It's not complicated. As soon as the door is opened, the melody of the piano music can be clearly heard inside.

The piano in the office is still very empty around it. It can be seen that the area of ​​this room is not small, and the sense of space design is very strong.

Luo Sheng also occasionally dances with music in his spare time. At the moment, he is playing Liszt's "The Bell", but compared to the past, this time he is very relaxed.

Finally no longer have to race against time.

This run took three and a half years to build the Cote d'Azur from scratch until Azure-X came out smoothly.

He could finally stop for a while, and he was going to give himself a vacation and rest for a while.

"Say something, I can tell."

Luo Sheng said with a smile, he had noticed when Qin Weimu opened the door.

"The industry has begun to sing the voices of Azure-X mobile phones, and more and more, many voices expressed support for traditional smart phones and are not optimistic about the future of Azure-X."

Qin Weimu came to Luo Sheng's office, paused for a moment, looked at Luo Sheng and added:

"There is still half a month left before the official release date, but I will seize the time."

"Those traditional giants may not really be able to let go, but if it's limited to public opinion offensives, it's not a concern." Luo Sheng's ten fingers danced quickly on the piano keys. Characteristic Etude.

At the end, Luo Sheng couldn't help but sighed after playing a piece: "I haven't played for a long time, and I've made the wrong note several times, even consecutively.

Having said that, Luo Sheng got up and left the piano, went back to the desk and sat down, glanced at Qin Weimu and said with a smile: "Those traditional giants who have been at ease for too long will be dull, and they will not want to move if they are too comfortable...you What did you hear?"

Qin Weimu was no stranger to Luo Sheng's light-hearted side, and when he heard his inquiry, he immediately handed him a document in his hand: "This is a recent media report by RIM founder Barsley. Some of the comments on the website are very representative.”

"Balsley, isn't this guy doing his job and being addicted to ice hockey recently? He still knows his BlackBerry?" Luo Sheng teased curiously.

He takes some time every day to learn about industry information. Some time ago, Luo Sheng also heard that the co-founder of RIM was planning to launch a campaign against the three professional hockey teams, the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Nashville Predators and the Phoenix Coyotes. In the acquisition invitation, some media reported that he even had a lawsuit with one of them.

This guy had a good life.

After taking over the document in Qin Weimu's hand, he opened it and looked at it. One of the passages is an excerpt of Balsley's comments when he asked about the new products of the Cote d'Azur in an interview with the media:

[Azure-X is just a new entry into an already crowded field, where consumers have a lot of options, and I think it’s a bit of an exaggeration to say that some Silicon Valley folks say it could lead to a sea change in the BlackBerry landscape. Even the launch of Azure-X is good news for us, because this product drives users' attention to this area, and this trend is definitely good for our business. ]

Balesley also expressed confidence in the media:

[We don't have a lot of product portfolios, either going on a trip to the moon or crashing on Earth, but the trip to the moon is going well and we'll stick to that strategy. ]

Seeing this, Luo Sheng couldn't help laughing and said, "I sincerely hope that Mr. Balsley will continue to be addicted to ice hockey. That's how giants die. Often they kill themselves, hehe..."

After skipping it, Luo Sheng then scrolled down to read the comments made by other people in the industry.

[If I were to buy an Azure-X phone it would cost $600, or even $800, but it wouldn't be able to do some of the key features that even a $50 phone could do, like MMS, video recording, stereo audio streaming, etc.] . ]

Seeing a comment from a Nokia insider, Luo Sheng smiled and said nothing.

All at once, how can the 3G version be sold in the future? The strategy of squeezing toothpaste like Intel's still has to be learned.

[I'm not that cold with Azure-X, really, as a PDA user, this thing has nothing on my phone... Please (Côte d'Azur), please make a real PDA out! ]

[On the one hand, it's an excellent mobile device that's easy to navigate and use, but at the same time it has some serious downsides, and the virtual keyboard can act as a rotary phone for eavesdropping on emails and text messages. Don't be surprised if Azure-X users regret not buying a BlackBerry after spending the extra time each day pulling out emails on the road. ]

When Luo Sheng saw this typical Chafan evaluation, he immediately said with a firm expression: "The blogger's evaluation in this column is that he took Balsley's money, and I gave him three times the amount of money that BlackBerry gave him."

Qin Weimu raised his eyebrows and looked at Luo Sheng with a strange look: "Are you serious?"

"Uh...that's fine."

Luo Sheng smiled and threw the material aside.

He doesn't care about the bad reviews in public opinion, because he knows what users like, and the development experience of offline stores has been enough to prove a lot of things.

What Luo Sheng is more concerned about is that these traditional giants are in a hurry in the end, and they engage in regional trade barriers and other strange operations.

This is the place that deserves the most attention and is actively prepared, because if you are not careful, you may lose the local market.
