Rebirth of England
Chapter 728 Android Tax
After all, data is the most important thing for Internet companies.
In the era of PC Internet, when users use PC to surf the Internet, they are used to opening Google's homepage to search and surf the Internet first.
This allows Google to occupy the entrance to the Internet and grab enough data for its own use.
But in the era of mobile Internet, users use smartphones to surf the Internet. This process is no longer in the form of logging in to the web page through a browser, but using those APPs. This makes it difficult for search giants like Google to grab data from different APPs-unless they control the underlying mobile phone operating system.
In Barron's previous life, Google relied on the Android system to maintain its status as a giant in the mobile Internet era.
On the other hand, Baidu, one of the three giants of BAT in China, lost its status as a network entrance after entering the mobile Internet era, and began to fall behind.
Later, Baidu's market value was even surpassed by ByteDance and even Meituan...
This is why after IC Capital acquired Android, Google still had to develop the GOS system on its own, and did not give up and continue to invest resources in it when the GOS system did not meet expectations.
However, Barron was not too worried about this. After all, the Android system now has considerable first-mover advantage. It has the highest market share among touch-screen smartphone operating systems (iOS, Android and GOS), and Android is no longer the small startup it was at the beginning. With the great success of the Android system, Android is also constantly increasing its staff. In terms of mobile operating systems, its R\u0026D capabilities are no weaker than Google. After all, it is well known that Google has entered many fields that it has not entered before by acquisition.
It is also worth mentioning that in Barron's previous life, because Google withdrew from the Chinese mainland market in 2010, many services of the Android system in the Chinese mainland were not directly operated by it.
Just like the app store, at that time, most Android users overseas downloaded apps directly from the Google app store, while in mainland China, there were many third-party app stores, and even later almost every brand of mobile phone would launch its own app store...
Apple relies on its Appstore, and users' digital content consumption in the app, in simple terms, is the recharge in the app, which requires a 30% fee (the commission rate for small and medium-sized developers with an annual income of less than 1 million US dollars is 15%), which is called "Apple tax".
This part of the income can be said to be a very important source of income for Apple. In the future, the global annual income of Apple's Appstore can exceed 80 billion US dollars!
And China once surpassed the United States and became the region with the highest Apple tax income!
Of course, there is also "Android tax" overseas, but in mainland China, these fees are attributed to those third-party app stores, and even some mobile phone brands' app stores, the relevant fees can reach 50%!
However, Android does not belong to Google now, so even if this year is still the same as the original time and space, Google will launch the mainland China market, and Android will stay in China.
And Android will also start to "block" third-party app stores like Apple, so as to control the Android system's Play Store in its own hands, which will also become one of Android's main profits in the future.
With such a huge revenue expectation, Barron will definitely not give up the Android system casually, and will definitely insist on fighting Google's GOS system to the end.
…
When Ivanta first got together with Barron, she was just a girl, but now she has revealed a mature charm, plus she is tall and has real materials, it can be said that she is more and more attractive to Barron.
After meeting, in addition to talking about IC capital, of course, it is inevitable to learn a lot of knowledge.
Well, in fact, they are always eager to learn a few times at the first time. Ivanta's good physical strength from regular fitness can also ensure that she is more adapted to the rhythm of learning knowledge with Barron than other women.
In the intervals between learning knowledge, when they take a break, they will start to talk about work.
"My father talked to me and hoped that I could take over part of TP Group's work..."
Just like this moment, Ivanta leaned on Barron's arms and said to him softly:
"In fact, he had this idea two years ago, but at that time I wanted to do a good job in IC Capital, so I put it on hold for the time being."
Ivanta's meaning was very clear. Now the development of IC Capital is on the right track. Although there are still many things to do, many things can be handed over to the people below. She now puts most of her energy on Android Company, and there are not many other investment projects.
And unlike in the original time and space, she needed to be responsible for many specific affairs after entering TP Group. Her father also wanted her to make some decision-making work.
Although in terms of asset scale, IC Capital is now much higher than TP Group, after all, Ivanta is one of the heirs of the family, and it is natural for her to work in the family company.
However, before that, she still hopes to listen to Barron's opinion. After all, she understands that if she chooses one of the two, the value of her shares in IC Capital is even higher than the assets of the entire TP family. Moreover, even if she does not hold a position in the family business, the shares she should inherit in the future will not be less.
"I respect your choice, baby. After all, as you said, you only need to make some decision-making work, and IC Capital is now one of the shareholders of TP Group. Even as the representative of IC Capital in TP Group, it is your responsibility to inquire about its operations."
Before that, Ivanta's family encountered a debt crisis. After obtaining Barron's approval, she injected capital into the family business through IC Capital.
Therefore, IC Capital is now one of the largest shareholders of TP Group besides the TP family, so Barron has no objection to Ivanta entering the family company to take charge of some work.
Moreover, as Ivanta said, Ivanta does not need to do those specific work in either IC Capital or TP Group, but only needs to make some decisions.
After all this time of training, Ivanta's ability has been obvious to all, and she is also very diligent. Barron believes that she can take care of all these things.
