Rebirth: I Want to Surf

In the late 1990s, the first batch of personal webmasters were born in China.

Some of these people are unknown, some once brilliant and then quickly disappeared, and some are still strong until now. Most of the products they make are related to their own interests, which are relatively monotonous, but they are better than being specific.

Among them is a website called "Mobile Home", and the boss is the personal station master. Last year, a Hong Kong company bought a 51% stake for US$1.8 million.

The website includes information, quotes, ringtones, second-hand phones, accessories, etc., with millions of users and is very active. The commercial value is not high, but in terms of mobile phones, it is one of the best in China.

At night, the office of Mobile Home.

Editor Sun Bin is immersed in writing, and he keeps scolding his mother in his heart.

Before the release of the iPhone, the country was very indifferent, so he routinely sent out a small draft to briefly introduce it. Unexpectedly, in a short period of time, the iPhone suddenly became popular, and many people were discussing that it must be the "mobile phone revolution", "great innovation" and "changing the industrial structure".

It seems that the iPhone is left behind without knowing it.

He had to rush through the night to introduce the damn iPhone. It is said to be in a hurry, but in fact it is excerpted everywhere. The Maiwo community has the most news, so I copied a little bit here, copied a little bit there, and put together a complete article.

In the process of excerpting, Sun Bin passively accepted all kinds of information, and even felt that the iPhone was awesome.

What he knew about Apple before was the iPod. A friend bought one and borrowed it for a few days. The performance, appearance, and experience were all first-class.

"Hey, Laomei's technology is awesome!"

"This phone is really beautiful, it doesn't have a keyboard, what do you think, it's a genius!"

"It is said that it will be released in June, 5,000 yuan is too expensive, two months' salary."

Thinking so, Sun Bin finished the manuscript and posted it to the website, and then went around the forum of Mobile Phone Home to see if there was anything new.

Flipping through it, a post was suddenly refreshed.

"Let everyone appreciate the domestic conscience, Meizu, which claims to be the best in design in the industry, and the appearance of the mobile phone is out!"

Sun Bin clicked on it, and there were four pictures of the mobile phone in it, including the front, back and sides.

I saw a huge touch screen, a home button below, the body is clearly divided into black and white, there is a cable socket at the bottom, the volume adjustment button is on the side, and the camera is located on the back of the phone.

There is also a MEIZU logo on the back.

Um? ? ?

Sun Bin was puzzled. It cannot be said to be completely similar to the iPhone, but it can only be said to be exactly the same.

The post also said:

"When Apple released the first-generation iPhone, Meizu, yes, the brand that has countless self-proclaimed 'kerosene' fans, also happened to make the appearance of the mobile phone, and is urgently applying for a patent.

These are the patented exterior design drawings that have been applied for! "

Someone will reply soon:

"It's fake, Meizu doesn't have any official news!"

"This is copying from Apple, don't force yourself!"

"Meizu is not a day or two. The miniplayer is a high imitation of the iPod. A group of fans are still complacent, claiming to be a domestic conscience."

"That is, if it can sell for 1.2 billion, it can only be said that domestic people have a lot of stupid money."

"This is too shabby, isn't Meizu afraid of Apple suing?"

"It depends on the time of the patent. If Meizu had registered first, then Apple would not be able to sue in mainland China, and it might not even be able to sell it in mainland China."

"Fuck, don't do it, I'm waiting to buy an iPhone!"

Of course, Mobile Home also has fans of Meizu, who came to fight back and made a fuss. Sun Bin was very excited, this is much more interesting than introducing iphone!

He was inspired like a diabetes collapse, and he wrote like a god, and he finished typing out another magnificent essay and passed it on.

"Plagiarism OR revolution, the ice and fire between Meizu and Apple!"

Not long after posting it, the boss called and said, "Sun Bin, this manuscript is well written... Don't be modest, Apple and Meizu are both popular brands, and it's rare to get together.

Both are entering the mobile phone market, but one is innovative and the other is suspected of plagiarism. This point is very interesting, and we must continue to follow! "

"Okay, okay, understand!"

…………

"A habitual plagiarist or the light of domestic production? Exposing the family history of Meizu's dog blood!"

"The iPhone has not yet been released, but the Meizu high imitation has appeared first!"

"The previous swearing, now it seems that it is just grandstanding!"

"Meizu caught plagiarism, the reporter was rejected!"

"Bai Yongxiang is not in Zhuhai, he seems to be avoiding the storm!"

The news intensified, but Meizu never stood up and responded, which in everyone's opinion is an expression of guilty conscience. The ones who dance the most are not competing products such as Patriot and Newman, but the pitiful fruit fans.

They have questioned miniplayer plagiarizing iPod before, and now they finally have a "real hammer".

...

Google China Academy of Engineering.

Two people are discussing this matter, one is vice president Lin Bin, and the other is senior product manager Hong Feng.

The former is responsible for the research and development of Google Mobile and the localization of the Android system, and the latter is responsible for Google music, Chinese input method, video, etc., but the most amazing thing about Hong Feng is that he used 20% of his spare time to create a Google 3D street view with a few people prototype.

They are all masters of technology, and they are also talents that Yao Yuan has visited before.

"Although that Mr. Yao is young, he speaks and behaves maturely, and even created a career. I don't think it's that simple."

"You say the news is fake?"

"Not necessarily, anyway, it's a bit strange, because if it's plagiarism, it's too obvious, Meizu won't do that."

"I think so, it seems to be deliberate."

The two chatted for a while, and then the topic turned to other places. Hong Feng asked, "When the iPhone was released, the world was shocked. How did the headquarters react?"

"Arguing!"

Lin Bin seemed to have a headache, and said: "I heard that some high-level executives want to bring Android back and redo it, but others disagree. In my opinion, it will eventually have to be redone. I saw Apple's press conference, and their iOS system is indeed Smoother than us."

Android, originally intended to be "robot".

In 2003, Andy Rubin founded the Android company. It was acquired by Google in 2005 and has been responsible for the development of the operating system. At first it was only called internally, and later it was officially named "Android System".

The two of them were just chatting, and neither of them cared too much about Meizu, so they didn't catch the eye.

At this moment, Lin Bin's phone rang, and he picked it up with a strange expression: "It's that Mr. Yao..."

…………

Except for Lin Bin and Hong Feng, all the people Yao Yuan visited paid attention to the news, some didn't care about it, and some despised it. How dare you ask me to change jobs for someone like you who doesn't even understand plagiarism? !

Lei Jun is a benevolent elder who expressed concern to Yao Yuan.

Instead, Yao Yuan invited him, and said with a smile, "There will be a press conference for Meizu's new products at the end of the month, come and have a look when you have time."

"Now that there is such a big disturbance, you'd better come out and explain it, otherwise it will damage the brand image."

"I will explain it at the press conference, so you can't miss it... By the way, I also invited Lin Bin and others to watch it together, just to give us pointers."

Lei Jun has not yet become a monkey master, so he didn't know what kind of medicine he sells in his gourd, so he agreed to participate.

(besides……)
