Reborn Millennium Player

The Android R&D department has not yet been established, but Andy Rubin has already entered the state. He came to the company early in the morning and met with Lu Fei.

The question raised is crucial. The Android kernel is Linux. Does the application level lean towards Java or C language?

These are two completely different routes. Apple uses objective-C language, while Android uses Java virtual machine.

Lu Fei pricked up his ears. Although he still didn't understand, Xiao Gui and Cao Sui said, "What was it like in the past life? What is it like now?" He took the java route.

It's destined to be this way, because Android will be open source.

If the ecology wants to develop greatly, it must choose a suitable track. The first consideration is not the general public, but the developer group. If we rank the current programming languages, the top two are Java and C language.

C language, from entry to grave.

In comparison, Java is easy to get started with, and there are a lot of developers around the world, so the speed of ecological construction is fast and the scale is large. For example, if you want to practice "Sunflower Collection" and "Evil Sword Manual", if you want to practice magical skills, you must first castrate yourself.

The system's execution efficiency and partial smoothness are definitely worth it.

The primary consideration for open source systems is not depth, but breadth. What we compete for is market share and the number of applications.

"Cool! Lu, you think exactly the same as me!"

Andy Rubin has already answered from the bottom of his heart that if Android is to become a mobile phone platform open to developers, it must be Java.

Lu Fei took a check from Guo Xing who was hesitant to speak: "Here is 250,000 US dollars, which is the salary advanced to you. After you repay all foreign debts, the remaining money can be spent on living expenses and support.

It should be no problem to sign the contract, right?"

"No problem, Lu, thank you!"

Andy Rubin got half a year's salary, and he was surprised and happy.

"A little thought, even if you don't make an advance, it won't matter to you, a future millionaire."

Lu Fei stood up with a smile. Google spent 50 million US dollars to acquire Android, but it was already a mobile operating system, and now it is just a digital camera system that no one cares about. He only spent 1.25 million US dollars, which is equivalent to nothing if rounded up.

Pick up.

Andy Rubin scratched his head, "No, no, this money came just in time, thank you!"

"Look at you and say thank you."

Lu Fei sent him out of the office, turned around and asked, "Lao Guo, what did you want to say just now?"

"Mr. Lu, I don't understand why we need to open source and open it to other mobile phone manufacturers. Doesn't that mean we are capitalizing on our enemies?"

Guo Xing told the truth: "Andy also said that a closed system is smoother and more stable, why bother..."

"We are a Chinese enterprise. We cannot be the overlord of Western Chu. We must make many friends and only a few enemies."

It's not that Lu Fei has never thought about building a closed system, but the logic is not like Samsung's. Once it is sanctioned and cut off, it will be overturned. How can the system and software that rely on hardware be better?

Only open source, like the Symbian Alliance, can pull friends other than Apple into the Android camp as much as possible, destroy the living space of other operating systems, and leave the world with only——

Ami IOS, China Android.

Even if the hardware is sanctioned, you can still make money from the system.

Moreover, manufacturing mobile phones requires a large number of patents, especially in the field of communications. Faced with patent litigation from all directions, if you do not engage in open source, you can only fight alone, but open source can join forces.

"Hi! Hi, Mr. Lu!"

Guo Xing gradually became enlightened under Master Lu's teachings.

"The open source system does not mean that we will use the original version in the future. We can develop our own UI based on Android."

After Lu Fei decided on the strategic route, all that was left was to spend money to recruit people and develop the UI of the logic phone.

Guo Xing looked embarrassed. There were too many projects and funds were tight.

Fuxin Semiconductor's wafer fab, PTK Chenhong's capacitive screen, Kindle reader, Newark's multi-touch, etc. If Android is launched, the headset may have to be discontinued.

"No, let's get financing."

Lu Fei raised his lips, "I promised Ballmer to raise Spotify's Series A financing before, and he has already urged me four or five times. It's time."

“How much are we going to melt?”

Guo Xing is wavering. The key Spotify data and profits are so beautiful, and the number of users is about to exceed 100 million.

"10%, Microsoft accounts for 6.5%, let him contribute 20%."

Lu Fei touched his chin and thought for a moment.

Guo Xing reminded: "But Mr. Lu, if the bid is too low, it will not work. At worst, the headphone project will be delayed for a year and a half."

Lu Fei picked up the phone and dialed the number. After getting through, he said:

"Hey, Ballmer, do you have time to talk about Spotify's financing? The Los Angeles charity gala? No, no, let's talk on the phone."

Ballmer said: "Lu, there will be many funds coming to the party. You can get a valuation you are satisfied with here."

Lu Fei glanced at the invitation letter from New Line Cinema, thoughtfully.

…………

The flight from Silicon Valley to Los Angeles has not yet taken off. In the business class, the stewardess greeted her with a smile:

"Hello, welcome aboard!"

Lu Fei was looking for a seat, and out of the corner of his eye he noticed a man wearing sunglasses. His shoes were put aside. He was half lying on the seat wearing slippers. He was wearing a white dress with red roses printed on it, but he was not wearing a bra...

Yangma seemed to be aware of it, but he didn't care at all about the looks of passers-by and just flipped through the magazine on his own.

The headlights are good, top luxury car configuration.

Lu Fei glanced at it twice and immediately turned his attention to the vibrating cell phone in his pocket. It was a call from the president of New Line Cinema.

"Hi, Say, I've already left for Los Angeles..."

Dayang Ma looked sideways, pressed the call bell, waited for the patrolling stewardess to come over, and pointed at her.

The flight attendant looked in the direction of the finger and immediately understood:

"Sir, the plane is about to take off. Please put your phone into flight mode or turn off the power..."

"Sauri."

Lu Fei apologized profusely and asked the stewardess for a satellite phone. He noticed that Yang Ma took off his sunglasses and looked towards this side intentionally or unintentionally.

Their eyes met, and the beautiful face turned out to be Yin Fanka.

She was also stunned. She seemed to have seen his face somewhere before. She racked her brains, but she couldn't remember where it was.

Soon, the plane arrived at Los Angeles International Airport.

The sky was getting dark, and the stars were shining brightly in the night sky, complementing the Beverly Hills below. Stars and wealthy people walked on the red carpet, and the flashing lights never stopped.

"Eminem, you will run for office, is it true?"

"Harley, how does it feel to be the first actress to play a superhero in history?"

"..."

The media rushed to interview and ask questions, and suddenly a figure flashed across the camera. Many reporters were surprised and thought they had seen it wrong.

"Who was that person just now?"

"Lu, tear it down and feed it."

"Neon people, stick people, or Chinese people?"

"Hai Guizi, of course he is a Chinese and a billionaire."

"Motherfuxk? Billionaire!"

Everyone looked at Lu Fei's back as he walked away, and saw him walking into an open-air banquet with bright lights like daylight. People everywhere were in the political and business circles, the financial world, and lastly, the media circles and Hollywood.

"Thomas."

David Solomon held a wine glass: “Which side do you think will win this year’s election, the Elephant Party and the Donkey Party?”

As a member of the Donkey Party media, Friedman sighed: "The situation is not optimistic. I can't believe that 'Da Bu Le' understands economics, but it seems to be doing well."

"Haha, that's your fault too. It's all your "The World Is Flat" that came up with the clever trick. Subprime mortgages made real estate full of vitality."

David Solomon shook his wine glass: "More and more people are buying houses. The Elephant Party has fulfilled its promise of 'home ownership' and won votes."

"Yes, I was wrong, and of course Lu was wrong."

As soon as Friedman finished speaking, he saw Ballmer walking over with a big belly, and a familiar face appeared next to him——

"land!"

"Hi, Thomas." Lu Fei shook hands cordially.

David Solomon narrowed his eyes. Under Ballmer's introduction, they got to know each other and complimented:

"Lu, your fund's trading of soybean futures is really impressive. I didn't expect you to be so good at futures."

"It's just a small profit. Goldman Sachs also made a lot."

Lu Fei was smiling but not smiling, and he was wary.

"The same goes for us. The real big head belongs to them."

While David Solomon was speaking, his eyes passed through the crowd and glanced at the three major grain merchants of ABC. They were chatting happily and seemed to be plotting something.

Lu Fei smiled instead of getting angry, clinked glasses and said: "I hope there will be opportunities like soybean futures in the future."

"There is one right now, Lu, are you interested in oil futures?" David Solomon smiled, "Your China Aviation Oil Company is doing oil trading."

Lu Fei narrowed his eyes: "No, Trisolaris will not be exposed to futures during this period. We will start to focus on subprime mortgage CDS and CDO."

"Cool! But the growth of subprime mortgages seems to have hit a bottleneck."

David Solomon said that subprime mortgages have covered more than 70% of the middle class, and the people have become poor and have no money to exploit.

Lu Fei glanced at Friedman and saw him raising his chin with a proud smile on his face:

"David, what you said was something I considered when I was writing the book. Why can't you bring people with low credit into the ranks of those who are allowed to borrow money?"

"Their income is too low." David Solomon shook his head.

"When Thomas and I were working together to write this book, he proposed many methods, such as p2p."

Lu Fei is smiling and harmless to humans and animals.

Did I say that? Why don’t I remember?

Friedman looked confused. He had no idea how earth-shattering the thunder Mr. Lu had laid, and he took the initiative to admit:

"Yes, you can definitely borrow money from p2p. As for low income, if you buy a house, you will have vacant rooms. You can buy a few more houses and rent out the extra houses."

David Solomon was speechless and felt that it made sense.

"Thomas, Lu, you are worthy of being masters!"

Next to Lehman Brothers, the vice president of Bear Stearns, the partners suddenly opened up the two channels of Ren and Du. The previous route was mortgage - bank - second mortgage MBS - investment bank CDO - CDS - investor, plus a p2p, wouldn't it be

Beautiful?

"No, no, this is all Thomas's fault."

Lu Fei suppressed his smile and gave up all the limelight to Friedman. He saw him cast a grateful look and took the credit "shamelessly" amidst everyone's admiration:

“This is the innovation of ‘Internet + Finance’.”

“That’s right, long live Internet finance!”

Accompanied by cheers, the Wolves of Wall Street surrounded Friedman, trying to pry more good ideas from him about subprime mortgages.

And the instigator, Lu Fei, hid his merit and fame and stayed far away. P2P thunderstorms and subprime mortgages collapsed. It sounds so pleasant to hear.

David Solomon always felt weird, but couldn't detect anything weird. He wanted to dig deeper, but Ballmer, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke and interrupted:

"Stop talking about subprime mortgages! Lu, let's talk about Spotify."

Lu Fei didn't want it, so the conversation turned to Series A financing, "10%, you have to figure out how to quote."

David Solomon's heart sank, "Lu, can you reveal where this money will be used?"

Lu Fei bluntly said that Spotify will expand from online music McDonald's to online audio and video. In addition to audio e-books, it will also enter broadcast stations, radio stations, and even sell TV series for paid download and viewing.

"Wow!"

Ballmer's eyes lit up, "This way, ituify compares."

"not only."

Lu Fei also moved from online to offline, developing Spotify co-branded headphones, making a trendy brand in the headphone industry, and using the star halo of entertainment and sports circles to promote, especially N and BA.

The cakes are so fragrant that it’s hard not to be greedy.

Ballmer couldn't wait to say: "How about David, Microsoft leads the investment, Goldman Sachs joins the investment, and the two of us join forces?"

David Solomon was very enthusiastic, but on the surface he was calm and calm. He said that he would have a meeting with Goldman Sachs executives to discuss before making a decision.

"No problem, I'll also look for quotes from several other companies."

Lu Fei clinked glasses with him, drank it all in one gulp, then walked to the bartender and left in the name of getting a drink.

Ballmer followed closely and said with a smile:

"Lu, tell me exactly, how much money do you want to raise?"

"Of course the more the better, it depends on your sincerity."

Lu Fei smelled the wine: "If you want to become the official partner of N, BA, you will need a lot of sponsorship fees."

Ballmer patted his chest. No matter how short of money Microsoft was, he even wanted to buy an N.B.A. team. "Fuxk, I want to buy the Lakers, but the Buss family won't sell it."

"The Lakers are everything the Buss family owns. How could they sell it?" Lu Fei rolled his eyes.

"No matter what, Allen owns the Blazers, and I also want to build a team for fun. How about we buy it together if we have the chance?"

Ballmer ignored the occasion and put their arms around each other.

The Warriors are my favorite!

Lu Fei rolled his eyes and agreed with a smile.

"Haha, your kid's temper towards me."

Ballmer patted him hard on the back and said, "If I have a daughter, I will definitely introduce you to her."

"Ahem."

Lu Fei almost spit out his wine, but please stop him. With your appearance, marrying your daughter would be better than marrying Niu Benshan.

Ballmer is full of enthusiasm and takes the initiative to introduce celebrities like a Yue Lao, regardless of whether people can bear it or not.

"That, Paris Hilton, has a bad reputation."

"Lydia and Amanda, they are both from the media giant Hearst family. What do they look like? They are all models."

"..."

Listening to his talk, Lu Fei smacked his lips, glanced impatiently, and found Yin Fanka in the crowd, all alone, obviously being ostracized by the ladies.
"What about this?"

"Which one? Yin Fanka?"

Ballmer's eyes were complicated: "You can ask her to be your girlfriend, but you can't marry her home."

Lu Fei was particularly curious, "Why?"

"Because she has an unreliable and crazy father who can actually open a casino and lose money!"

Ballmer laughed loudly: "Their family is in trouble now. They owe $1.8 billion in debt. I can't count how many times they have gone bankrupt."

Lu Fei cast his gaze, shaking his wine glass and thinking.

Yin Fanka seemed to sense something, and the face of the man on the plane was reflected in her eyes, and she couldn't help but be surprised——

He is actually there too!

In a dazed moment, Paris Hilton pretended to bump into her accidentally, without even saying sorry, and said with a smile:

"Yin Fanka, I heard that your family is bankrupt again?"

Yin Fanka suddenly blushed and argued, can the affairs of the rich be called bankruptcy? They talked about "comeback" and "asset restructuring" one after another, which made everyone laugh, and the air was filled with joy.

"Then why didn't you go to work in your group?"

Paris Hilton has a weird way.

Yin Fanka defended: "I want to go to other small real estate companies to train myself. Starting from the grassroots level, I want to understand the work of all aspects of the real estate industry..."

"Really, so busy?"

Paris Hilton grinned and mocked.

"Unlike you, Paris, I don't have enough time to shoot that kind of thing with a man." Yin Fanka shot back in a low voice: "And it was leaked."

"You, you, Bichi!"

Paris Hilton completely broke her guard, and suddenly she felt that everyone around her was looking at the clown with playful eyes.

However, in full view of the public, I didn’t dare to act violently.

Yin Fanka made a comeback and won back a lot of respect. She raised her finger and asked:

"Who is that man?"

"He? He is Lu, Huaxia Lu!"

"He is Lu?!"

Yin Fanka's heart was shocked, and she quickly took a sip of wine to calm down her shock, looking straight at it, thoughtfully.
