Rebirth Starts From 2006

After a brief silence, Chen Yang knocked on the table and said with a smile, "Although smart phones are the key project for our future development, they are not urgent projects.

In terms of the four-quadrant rule, it belongs to the last quadrant, that is, it is important but not urgent. It will have a profound impact on future development, but it is not something that must be done now.

Therefore, it is still too early to discuss which system to use and which system to use. It is better to let it go and do the urgent things at hand.

What is urgent?

Before the advent of the smart phone era, the world is still dominated by feature phones. Therefore, the cooperation with LianTek is still an important core of our current work. This point, I guess, will not appear in the next three to four years. Fundamental changes, and product development around LianTek chips is still the core work of the R\u0026D department during this period. "

Professor Huang nodded immediately and said with a smile, "Of course we understand this. I have already contacted Lianfa Technology. Their newly developed chips will provide us with free samples as soon as possible for the development of next-generation products. .”

Today's Damai mobile phone is of extraordinary significance to Lianfa, and it is naturally necessary to strengthen the relationship with major customers.

"Okay," Chen Yang nodded, and said seriously, "We can do this part of the work step by step.

On the other hand, as you just mentioned, the research and development of 3G mobile phone hardware must be carried out as soon as possible. The hardware can be used not only for smart phones, but also for feature phones. Mobile phones must be on sale.

As for what kind of system the smartphone should be equipped with, we can test it slowly. Anyway, it is a laboratory product, so it doesn’t matter which system you use. You can try it if you have it.

And no matter which one is used, we need to carry out in-depth customized development, and the advantages summarized during the experiment can be used, and we will not do useless work. "

Professor Huang nodded slowly, "Understood, I will make a research and development plan for the company for the next three years, please review it later."

"it is good,"

Chen Yang smiled, and said, "In this meeting today, apart from setting the general direction of the company's development in the future, I personally have another small idea."

Then he turned to look at Huang Shan and asked, "Is there a department in charge of trademark and patent affairs in Chuangfu?"

Although the framework for creating the future is set by him,

But he has never asked about the specific affairs carefully, so he naturally wouldn't know about such trivial matters.

Huang Shan nodded first, then shook her head, and said, "The business center has a dedicated patent affairs department, but there are not many staff, only two or three people, and their main job is to integrate internal needs, and the specific patent application still depends on Consulting firms outside."

Speaking of this, she explained with a smile, "Just like legal affairs and financial consulting, most people who are good at this kind of business will choose to start their own businesses, so it will be more efficient to cooperate with mature companies outside. high."

"Well, yes,"

Chen Yang looked at Han Qinya again, and said, "I have some ideas about the shape of the mobile phone, please take a moment to help me restore them."

Han Qinya nodded immediately, "Okay."

Chen Yang smiled, and without explaining to everyone, he announced the end of the meeting and asked Han Qinya to take him to the design room.

Well, the meeting did not adjourn actually, because Huang Shan and Professor Huang also followed.

Sitting in front of the computer, Han Qinya called up the document and said, "Mr. Chen, what kind of shape do you want to design? I have a lot of materials here, and I can fine-tune them according to the materials. This should be faster."

Sitting next to her, Chen Yang thought for a while and said, "A rectangular box that looks like a straight mobile phone, a boxy one will do."

Soon, a cuboid appears on the screen,

Chen Yang squinted his eyes and thought about it, and kept pointing to the screen to say what needs to be modified, such as cutting a rounded corner here, adding a button there,

Han Qinya's movements are also very fast. Whenever he speaks out a command, it takes about ten seconds to modify it, and if it is slow, it only takes half a minute to complete the modification.

In less than half an hour, an Ai Crazy 4, which is familiar to many people in later generations, appeared on the screen.

Professor Huang, who had been standing behind, touched his chin and said thoughtfully, "This phone is the smartphone you imagined?"

There is only one button on the whole body, besides the touch screen smartphone, what other machine would be designed like this? !

Chen Yang leaned on the back of the chair, raised his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "Could it be that feature phones can't use this style?"

"Uh,"

Professor Huang choked for a moment, "Yes, yes, just replace it with a capacitive screen, but I feel that it is a pity that this shape is used as a functional phone."

After saying this, he suddenly realized that the boss has not commented on the touch-screen mobile phone he developed. Now it seems that he doesn't like resistive screens, but wants to use capacitive screens.

There will be no glass luster on the screen of a mobile phone with a resistive screen!

Well, in this case, let's adjust the design first.

Han Qinya looked at the product she made with her own hands, and nodded deeply, "This shape is simple and elegant, and it looks better than all the smartphones currently on the market. If it is produced, it will definitely be very popular in the market, but,"

Speaking of this, she tilted her head and thought for a while, "From the front, it seems to be a bit similar to the newly launched Apple mobile phone in the United States."

"It doesn't look much like it," Huang Shan bent down to look carefully, and said, "The back of the Apple is curved, but this one is straight. Frankly speaking, the Apple phone is really amazing, but this one is not bad, and I feel Even better."

Chen Yang smiled and didn't say a word, nonsense, their products three years later will of course be better.

At this time, Huang Shan frowned slightly, and said, "That is, will this home button touch Apple's patent?"

Chen Yang shrugged, "It's nothing more than a button. If I'm not allowed to use a round one, then I'll use an oval, square, or even a heart shape. He doesn't care about that. Besides, let's not care whether they have applied for this patent in the United States or not." , even if you apply, have you applied in our country?!"

Huang Shan smiled and nodded, "Understood, I'll ask them to submit an appearance patent application later, and I'll talk about it when someone raises an objection."

If no one raises an objection, it means that Apple has not applied for this patent in China, so what else is there to say!

Chen Yang pointed to the screen and said with a smile, "Remember, all corner features must be applied separately, don't miss out."

Because of the design patents in later generations, Lao Qiao has suffered a lot. Why not do it to make things difficult for his opponents!

When Huang Shan indicated that he had received it, he immediately gestured and said to Han Qinya, "Save the file first, and we will move on to the next one."

and also?

The two behind looked at each other in blank dismay, while Han Qinya hurriedly operated,

So, in the next two hours or so, there were Ai Crazy 5, 6, 7, 8, and more than a dozen mobile phone outlines on her computer.

No way, he is not a master of memory, and it is impossible to restore 100%. Except for a few with particularly deep memories, most of them can only restore 70% to 80%. Anyway, this thing looks about the same.

And besides Ai Crazy, by the way, all the classic models of Xiaomi, Opal, Feed Me, and Huawei have also been made.

Just like Ai Crazy, you don't want to restore 100%, just a 70% or 80% similarity is enough.

He wanted to see, if he had applied for the appearance patents of Apple's future generations of products in advance, and then used them on Damai mobile phones, what shapes could they make in the future?

Well,

Is it possible that the slip-back style of Love Crazy 1 will remain as a feature?

How ugly that is!

It’s just a pity that the English trademark of iPad has already been registered by Weiguan Company.

Otherwise,...

Chen Yang patted his head and said to the tired Han Qinya, "The last one, make me a big one."

"Oh," Han Qinya pulled herself together, moved her somewhat sore hands, and was ready to start the operation.

At this time, Chen Yang turned his head to look at Professor Huang who had already pulled up a chair and asked, "Can't the capacitive screen really be bigger?"

He suddenly remembered, if the capacitive screen could not be made bigger, how would the IPAD come out three years later?

It can't be three years, no, plus the R\u0026D cycle may be less than two years, and the screen size can soar from 3.5 inches to 10 inches in two years? !

Professor Huang shook his head and said, "It's not that capacitive screens can't be made bigger, it's that mobile phone hardware can't support products with too large screens for the time being. If we just talk about screens, capacitive screens are 10 inches and resistive screens are 12 inches. This is the capacity of current technology. The largest size possible!"

Is it that big?

Chen Yang was a little surprised. Originally, he thought that the screen size of the mobile phone was small because the screen production process was not up to standard, but he didn't expect it to be due to other hardware.

That,

Thinking of this, he asked, "If we develop a tablet computer with a screen as large as ten inches, can the hardware support it?"

"Ten inches?"

Professor Huang was a little surprised. He paused for a moment, then frowned and asked, "Could it be that the tablet computer you're talking about is similar to a PDA but much larger in size? But will anyone buy such a model?"

The smallest laptop is 10 inches, why buy a PDA of the same size?

Just for coercion?

Snapped,

Chen Yang snapped his fingers and said sternly, "If anyone buys it, you'll know when it's made. Like a PDA, it doesn't need a communication module, as long as it can handle simple office software and be connected to a computer."

Then he looked at Huang Shan, "There is a company called Weiguan in Shenzhen. Its headquarters is in Taiwan. They have an IPAD trademark in their hands."

As he spoke, he picked up a pen and paper, wrote down these letters, and continued, "Arrange someone to buy this trademark. Remember, they are in the hands of Taiwan Headquarters and Weiguan Shenzhen respectively. If we want to win them all, we will use IPAD as the brand name for this tablet computer, and the full name is Damai IPAD!"

It didn’t cost much for Apple to buy IPAD trademarks around the world from Taiwan Weiguan at the beginning, but it didn’t expect that the copyright in mainland China was in the hands of Shenzhen Weiguan.

cough cough

We don't want to blackmail people, we just want our competitors to change their trademarks, this is not too much!
