The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games

Chapter 343: 340. What? Are we really going to do Lenovo?

Chapter 343 340. What? Are we really going to do Lenovo?

On January 16, Cao Yang came to work in the company in the morning. Before his **** was hot, Liu Guangran and the others called him to a meeting.

The main purpose of the meeting is to report to Boss Cao on the current progress of Bomi cloud computing, and how many people Bomi has sent to teach in cooperation with the school.

Now the basic bridges have been erected, and many schools will support students to come to Bomi for internships, which is equivalent to a long time in the future. Bomi does not have to worry about the future talent reserves.

During the meeting, Cao Yang always felt that something was amiss, something shining in the meeting room.

After the meeting was over, he and Liu Guangran had a private chat and then discovered that -

It turns out that Liu Guangran bought a glittering Bomi smartphone case.

During the meeting, he buckled the entire phone on the table, so it looked shiny.

"Fuck, Liu Guangran, you're crazy, where did you get this phone case?" Cao Yang looked at the phone on his desk in disbelief.

Obviously this is not produced by Bomi, and the official has never produced a mobile phone case.

"Hey, was it discovered by you?"

Liu Guangran seemed very proud. He picked up the heavy cell phone and showed it off in his hand. "Have you seen it, it is made of 24k pure gold, which perfectly matches your business elite status. The pattern of rich flowers and rhododendrons reflects your elegant temperament. Look at me. Is this phone case bought very well?

Boss, guess what, how much does such a distinguished phone case cost? "

"Guess, guess your size?" Cao Yang was puzzled.

Unexpectedly, the business that makes Bomi smartphone casings has appeared?

This rhythm is much faster than he thought.

"1999." Liu Guangran seemed very proud, "Is it very cheap? And it matches my identity?"

"Liu Guangran," Cao Yang laughed silently, not knowing what to say about him, "It's really worthy, especially shiny."

"With your taste, I guess you won't be a product manager for the rest of your life. It's better to do technology for you."

"Huh?" Liu Guangran was taken aback for a moment, "Isn't my 24k pure gold phone case not good-looking?"

"It looks good, of course it looks good." Cao Yang said with a smile.

Liu Guangran was sweating profusely, "Boss, you laugh, and the laugh makes my heart numb. I can't tell whether you are talking the truth or not."

……

The sale of Bomi smartphones has brought a lot of butterfly effects.

Drives the market, and a lot of peripheral products emerge immediately:

Including film, mobile phone shell, mobile phone holder, mobile phone Bluetooth headset,...

Cao Yang had to admire the swiftness of Chinese businessmen.

Now what are the local gold shells, Doraemon shells, natural romantic couple shells...A series of shells have come out.

And even the charging power cord has a lot of knockoffs.

……

These were not seen at all 2 weeks ago, and now I can actually see a lot of brothers doing mobile phone stickers under the flyovers in some big cities.

The slogans of the little buddies are also very unique:

【Mobile phone film, 10 yuan each.

Protect the phone from being broken.

Mobile phone film, 10 yuan a piece, smoother than the original screen. 】

And these peripheral products are not officially made.

At the beginning, Cao Yang didn't plan to do these things, because he knew that someone would do it in the future, and he could make flowers. You can't compete with others at all.

Take the mobile phone case as an example. The official production of a 24k pure gold phone case seems to be grounded, and it is also in line with the tastes of many coal bosses, but the official and the private are two things. The official is equivalent to Lowered his own situation.

There are even some mobile phone cases that can be sold more expensive than the phone itself. Taobao also has customized mobile phone cases, such as——

"Made of 24k pure gold, it perfectly fits your high-end taste, allowing you to see your wealth and domineering."

"You can choose a pattern, DIY custom mobile phone case, only 68 yuan."

……

Many people did not expect that a smart phone could revitalize such a large market and make many small vendors alive.

Also, Cao Yang himself did not expect that among these many mobile phone cases, the best-selling mobile phone case made of 24k pure gold was actually Liu Guangran's hand.

It is said to be made of 24k pure gold. In fact, only the thin electroplated layer on the outermost surface of the phone case is made of gold. Otherwise, it is impossible to sell it as cheap as 1999.

Furthermore, if you think about it, if the entire phone case is really pure gold, how heavy it is to hold it in your hand.

"Mom," even the little secretary couldn't stand it. "Who are these people? I am convinced that they can have such a [heroic] taste."

It can only be said that Chinese people understand the Chinese market better. Just like the 8888 Tyrant Gold smartphones in the previous life are very popular, the now launched Tyrant Gold mobile phone shells actually cater to the tastes of many Chinese people, especially some successful people of a certain age in society. , They even hope that the pen they use is made of pure gold, so the aluminum alloy Bomi smartphone is still a bit weaker. If it can be matched with a 24k pure gold mobile phone case, it looks very much in line with their identity.

Moreover, many Chinese are very feng shui, so if you have some flower, bird, fish and insect patterns on the phone shell, they will like it very much.

If Cao Yang’s father is still alive, I believe he will buy the same mobile phone case just like Liu Guangran.

So Cao Yang himself is also reflecting on——

I feel that in the next generation, Bomi can produce a local gold and rose gold series of mobile phones.

But in terms of art design, it certainly cannot be as ugly as the one bought by Liu Guangran.

……

Early the next morning, at 6 o'clock in the morning, Cao Yang received a call from Liu Guangran.

"What's the matter?" Cao Yang rubbed his sleepy eyes. At this time, Liu Guangran's phone calls were generally very important.

"Boss, I think our mobile phone has a defect. Do you know what it is?" Liu Guangran said.

"Huh?" Cao Yang clicked in his heart.

A great technologist said that your phone’s design is flawed. Is this okay?

Could it be said that Liu Guangran discovered any serious bug, which fully aroused Cao Yang's vigilance.

"What is it?" Cao Yang asked nervously.

Liu Guangran’s somewhat frustrated voice came over the phone, "That is—

Our phone slaps too easily.

You don’t know what I’ve been through these past few days. When I went to bed at night, I was slapped on my face while looking at my phone. Think about my 24k pure gold phone case. My eyes were swollen. "

Cao Yang was taken aback for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Who let you use such a heavy phone case?"

……

The problem of mobile phone face-slashing is actually a common feature of all smart phones, not only the Bomi smart phone, but also all smart phones in the previous life, especially in the pursuit of higher gameplay, the screen is getting bigger and bigger. The mobile phone is getting bigger and bigger, and the face is called a sour.

But if you want to solve it, the method is also very simple——

Just add a finger buckle at the back, which allows you to put your index finger into it when you are manipulating the phone, so that even if you cannot hold it securely, it won’t hit your face due to falling.

Cao Yang doesn’t have to worry about this.

Someone will definitely do it on the market.

Sure enough, when Liu Guangran reported this problem, many users on the Internet were already complaining:

"I found that smartphones are good for everything, but it's too easy to slap your face.

I play games at night, I will fall from above accidentally, and it is so accurate, pia hits your face, my eyes are swollen up to now. "

"Who isn't it? I am a little used to getting slapped face now. When I first bought it, I was more likely to get smashed. But now I have a good reaction ability. When I let go of my mobile phone, my head will naturally move to the side. The number of face slaps has been significantly reduced."

……

When there is demand, there is a market, and when there is a market, there are businesses.

After Bomi smartphone users reported the problem of [face-slapping], a few days later, there were already finger loops attached to the back of the phone on Taobao.

Another victory for madeinchina.

……

In addition to being slapped in the face, the most frequent complaints about Bomi smartphones are:

【Quick power consumption】

There are many similar posts in Baidu Post Bar:

"I don't know why, my Bomi smartphone consumes extremely fast power, and I feel like the fruit assassin after playing for two hours is out of power. Is it the problem with my phone? Or is it the same for other people?"

"Old iron, I'm the same as you. Bomi smart phones are good at everything, but that's not good, they consume very fast power. I will carry the charging cable wherever I go now, mainly because I am afraid that it has no electricity."

"Since I have a Bomi smartphone, it has subverted my perception of numbers:

When I used Nokia before, there was still 5% of the battery. Well, it’s okay, it can be used for one day.

Now use Bomi smartphone.

80%, um, fortunately, with electricity, you can play for a while.

67%, fuck, my phone is about to run out of power.

Yes, this is me. "

"Let’s put it this way, I have to thank Bomi smart phone, since I bought a smart phone for my girlfriend, I no longer have to worry about her cuckolding me overnight outside.

Because at night, she will inevitably come back because the phone has no power.

As long as you control the mobile phone charging cable, it is equivalent to controlling your girlfriend.

Have you learned?

If your girlfriend is too pretty, you can try to buy her a Bomi smartphone. "

"Understand, understand, learned, brother is awesome.

I only have one question now——

Where to find a beautiful girlfriend? "

……

As for the fast power consumption and poor battery life, Boss Cao has nothing to do with this thing. The previous Apple mobile phone has never done it well, and basically I have never seen a smartphone with a longer battery life.

Only "Charge for 5 minutes and talk for 2 hours" refers to the VOOC flash charging technology of OPPO mobile phones, which is slightly better.

Now Cao Yang is already putting pressure on Liu Qiang, asking them to choose as many useful battery manufacturers as possible with long battery life for cooperation.

Just exchanged related patents with Apple, and their mobile phones may help a lot in terms of power saving and battery life.

This is the case with this generation of smartphones, so let’s wait for the next generation.

……

Not long after the Bomi smartphone went on sale, the boss of BOE, Wang Dongsheng, found Bomi.

Boss Cao is a little flattered.

Because Bomi’s current production capacity is limited, Boss Cao himself seems to be looking for other mobile phone screen partners besides LG, but he did not expect BOE to find it.

Following BOE, Zang Weidong, the boss of Leybold High-Tech, Jiang Bin, the chairman of GoerTek Co., Ltd.... In short, there are 5 or 6 Chinese entrepreneurs.

Cao Yang looked at this battle, and his whole person was taken aback.

I thought I was in trouble, did it irritate you, and cause them to come to seek revenge.

Afterwards, everyone sat down peacefully, and the boss of BOE Wang Dongsheng explained his intentions, and Cao Yang was relieved.

Wang Dongsheng said straightforwardly, "Mr. Cao! Can you support domestic products, don’t use top-level supply chains for everything?"

Cao Yang froze for a moment, and suddenly understood something.

Bomi smart phones are selling well now, but many parts and accessories are selected by foreign industries in pursuit of performance and efficiency. For example, the mobile phone screen is used by LG, the battery is used by Nokia, and the camera is used by German Zeiss...

These top-level supply chains have contributed to the high-end image of Bomi smartphones, and at the same time, they have also allowed Bomi smartphones to have high performance.

However, it is not necessarily a good thing for domestic manufacturers. This mobile phone should have been used to drive the development of the domestic market and midstream and downstream enterprises, but Boss Cao did not do this, or it has not been like this in a short period of time. Signs.

So many manufacturers are in a hurry.

Everyone knows that the smart phone market will be a trillion-yuan market in the future, but it will not be able to squeeze in. If Boss Cao does not use their products, Wang Dongsheng directly joked, "Then we can only jointly develop a model that belongs to the Chinese. Smart phone."

"Hahaha……"

Everyone laughed.

It’s not easy to do mobile phone research and development. It’s hard to get the operating system alone without a few years of hard work without a strong technical team.

Although they knew they were joking, Boss Cao couldn't laugh at all.

"I understand," Cao Yang said, "We originally wanted to seek some partners outside the top supply chain. It just happened that you came to your door. We can say that this matter was a hit, everyone thought of going together."

"But, I have to make a request, that is, you have to make products that do not lose to the top supply chain. I hope that our mobile phones will not drop too much in quality. This is not only a loss of Bomi's face, but also a loss of everyone. s face.

Do you understand what I mean? "

Everyone was stunned for a moment, with mixed joys and sorrows.

Happily, Boss Cao agreed to use their products.

The worry is that Boss Cao proposed a task that seemed unlikely to be completed.

"I don’t want to be used internationally when Bomi’s mobile phones made by domestic supply chains are used by others because of performance problems, saying that our country’s technological level is too bad and that our country’s technology is not good.

If we cannot pass the quality barrier with the mobile phone developed by the domestic supply chain, I will definitely not release it. "

In the past, Xiaomi used the domestic supply chain to hold down the price of mobile phones, but these parts vendors were also very upbeat. At least they did not make Redmi phones criticized in terms of performance, and they quickly occupied the market of low-end phones with extremely high cost performance. .

In this life, since they came here, Cao Yang has the same requirements for them. I can not use your products, but since I use them, I must do my best, and I cannot lose to the mobile phones made in the top supply chain.

Everyone looked at each other, and then nodded with determination.

"Okay. I understand." Wang Dongsheng and his group said, "Then thank Mr. Cao, we will definitely work hard to make our products well and submit a perfect answer to Bomi."

After sending everyone away, Cao Yang sighed silently, looking at the back of them leaving.

Hey~

Lei Jun, Lei Jun, I don’t want to cut your way, but as a Chinese company, it is Bomi’s duty to support the local industrial chain. What's more, I can’t help it when people come to the door now.

but……

Cao Yang thinks very much about this matter. Whether it is a high-end or a low-end market, Bomi cannot be a monopoly. On the one hand, the state does not allow it, and on the other hand, Bomi cannot afford it.

After Bomi, as long as the [Hongmeng System] is open sourced, many competitors will naturally emerge.

The key lies in its own characteristics and main service content.

As long as you find this core, you can naturally gain a firm foothold in the market.

For example, in previous lives, Xiaomi focused on cost-effectiveness, small profits but quick turnover, occupying the low-end mobile phone market, and vivo mobile phones focused on camera and sound quality.

The current Bomi is equivalent to taking the path of the previous Huawei, focusing on technological leadership.

So it is impossible for Bomi's family to eat all the cakes. There will definitely be many newcomers in the future.

Soon, the entire smart phone market is a situation where a hundred schools of thought are contending.

……

BOE went to Bomi on the front foot, and Apple went to BOE on the back foot.

When he left Bomi in the afternoon, Wang Dongsheng received a call from the company, saying that it was the American Apple Company who wanted to cooperate with BOE to make them produce mobile screens for Apple smartphones.

Wang Dongsheng was a little confused.

"What? Apple also wants to be a smart phone?!"

This matter is a bit funny to talk about. It can only be said that Apple’s actions are a step slower than Bomi. LG was supposed to be Apple’s largest screen partner, but because Bomi has reached an agreement with LG for 5 years. According to the cooperation agreement, LG’s mobile phone screens will be given priority to Bomi.

But LG’s production capacity is now relatively limited, 5 million mobile phone screens in one quarter, all have been delivered to Bomi last quarter.

is now in production, of which 1 million pieces will be delivered to Apple first, and then another 1 million pieces will be provided every month.

The rest will be given priority to Bomi for a long period of time in the future.

LG wants to make smartphones by itself, but it's still in the development stage.

Not to mention the supply of this capacity to the two giant companies, even the exclusive supply of the Bomi family is not enough. For this reason, LG is also planning to open several more factories and lay several new production lines.

reacted a little from the side--

The market for smart phones is huge.

No company can fully supply any part of this industry chain, so Apple, like Bomi, is also looking for new suppliers around the world.

China’s BOE started late, but has strong R&D capabilities. Now it is slowly catching up, which can be used as an alternative, so Apple will contact them.

only--

Jobs himself did not expect that he liked it, Bomi was one step ahead of him.

Even this step was taken by BOE itself first.

After some communication, BOE’s boss, Wang Dongsheng, said that he could provide Apple with mobile phone screens, but the specific matters have to wait for Apple’s people to come here to discuss.

After hanging up, Wang Dongsheng was a little doubtful about life.

"What's wrong with this? How do you feel that the sky has changed all of a sudden?"

BOE actually has a day to become a sweet potato? !

However, since he made an agreement with Bomi first, Wang Dongsheng naturally has no reason to regret it. What's more, he brought so many domestic spare parts suppliers to Cao Yang, and there is absolutely no reason to regret it.

Let's take one step at a time, first do your own technology well, and then have the ability to supply the two companies.

Wang Dongsheng planned this way.

……

After Wang Dongsheng left, Cao Yang first called Liu Qiang at the Wuhan mobile phone factory in the afternoon and asked him to organize a meeting with key personnel.

At around 4 pm, Cao Yang arrived at Wuhan Tianhe Airport.

Then drove all the way to the Bomi mobile equipment manufacturing plant.

Liu Qiang had already prepared the conference room waiting for him.

After entering the meeting room, Cao Yang did not rush into the subject, but told everyone about Wang Dongsheng and the others who came to the company to find him this morning.

Everyone laughed.

These domestic suppliers are also really interesting. It is estimated that the cake in the smartphone market is too big, so everyone wants to take a bite.

Who doesn’t want to make money?

"So," Cao Yang coughed, glanced at everyone, and said with a smile, "I think they are right. We should use the domestic supply chain to make mobile phones."

"Huh?!" When everyone heard this, their smiles froze on their faces.

Everyone just saw this as a joke. After all, smartphones are relatively high-end products. Bomi smartphones can only be piled up with a top-level supply chain. Can you switch to a domestic supply chain?

Liu Qiang was a little stunned, "Boss, are you kidding me? What is the level of the domestic supply chain? We have no bottom. Now it is very difficult to build a decent smartphone. Change the supply. In terms of chain, this risk is very high."

"Do you look at me like a joke?" Cao Yang glared at him.

"I think so, we make two series of products.

The first one is to follow the direction of the current Bomi smartphones. This series takes the mid-to-high-end route and is still called Bomi phones, using the world's best top supply chain.

The other one is to use a domestic supply chain. It does not mean that it is not good. There is definitely a gap between us and the best supply chain, but I don’t think this gap can be narrowed.

The smart phones produced by the domestic supply chain must also produce products that satisfy our own people. This product focuses on cost-effectiveness and takes the middle and low-end route.

I call it——

Μm. "

"Micron?" Everyone looked up at Boss Cao, carefully savoring these two words.

"The micro and the macro correspond, the micro, see the micro knowledge, and the micro determines the macro.

Gather the sand into a tower

One sand, one world

One leaf and one bodhi.

Micro is another direction of human exploration. "Cao Yang said with a smile.

The name just happened to him when he was dreaming on an airplane.

He dreamed of chips and lithography machines. Every tiny electronic component in it was like tiny grains of rice.

This gave Cao Yang the idea of [micron].

The previous millet also has two series.

Xiaomi and Redmi.

Xiaomi: The English name is xiaomi. Foreigners like to pronounce it as: sheownme, or showme, just as they like to pronounce huawei as whoarewe.

Redmi, redmi, this one is easier to read.

And now, Bomi also has two series:

Bomi: BOMI.

Micron: MicroMI or directly called WeiMi.

……

After listening to Cao Yang’s explanation, Liu Qiang could agree with it a little bit.

However, he has no bottom in his heart now, and he does not know what level the domestic supply chain can achieve.

"It's okay," Cao Yang said, "I have already told them today. If we don't do it well, we don't need it. We will not go on the market until we develop a product that our company feels satisfied internally.

Otherwise, it would be a shame for our company and the country to rashly take out a shoddy mobile phone product. Then, how can the Chinese people have confidence in the domestic industrial chain? "

The first shot is very important. This is a battle that cannot be lost.

For Cao Yang, using domestic supply chain also has an advantage——

Cheap and cost-effective.

Then mobile phones built with the domestic supply chain can fully explore the low-end market, and then put the top-level supply chain of Bomi products in the mid-to-high-end market.

The entire strategy is in depth.

However, if the domestic supply chain is used, the technical requirements for Bomi are higher. After all, there is a big gap between the domestic supply chain and the top-level supply chain. This part of the gap depends on the joint efforts of each company.

The hardware is not enough, the software will come together.

So Cao Yang put forward higher requirements to the Bomi mobile phone R&D team, "We need to make Hongmeng 2.0 better, even if the hardware performance cannot keep up, we must solve it through software."

"Uh..." Liu Qiang held his forehead, and Boss Cao was simply giving the team a problem.

However, after spending such a long time together, Liu Qiang now understands Boss Cao’s temper like Liu Guangran.

Boss Cao either doesn’t do it, he must do it well.

Since he has promised others, he naturally has to go all out to get Micron out.

"Okay," Liu Qiang nodded, "We will make this micron series ready."

……

"Hmm." Cao Yang expressed his gratification to Liu Qiang's attitude and determination. It is precisely because of the courage and persistence of this team that Bomi smartphones can come to the present.

"That's right," Cao Yang suddenly remembered something and said to Liu Qiang's team, "In addition to developing the Micron smartphone series, I also want to do something new."

"Huh?" Liu Qiang looked at him suspiciously.

Currently Liu Qiang has not received many demands from Boss Cao, but every demand raised by Cao Yang is extremely difficult, from operating systems, to smartphones, to chip design...

Going to the micron series just now, each time Liu Qiang has created one problem after another.

Hearing what Cao Yang said, Liu Qiang's heart was tense. He didn't know what Cao Boss was going to do this time.

"I want to do-tablet computer." Cao Yang said with a smile.

"Huh?!" Liu Qiang looked at him strangely, "Tablet?"

The concept of the tablet computer was proposed very early. The concept was already proposed in 1960, but the time when it really entered the public eye was very late——

By 2002, Microsoft had made a product called TabletPC, which was a touch-rotating screen notebook based on the XP system.

But this tablet is closer to the form of a notebook, no matter the operating system or the hardware, it is not a tablet in the true sense.

In the past life, it was not until 2010 that Apple’s IPad appeared, which really allowed tablet computers to enter thousands of households.

Whether it is a system or a hardware industrial design, the iPad is closer to a tablet computer in the mainstream sense.

The Apple iPad was designed by a team led by British-born design director Jonathan Yves. This sleek, ultra-thin product reflects Yves’s respect for the talented German designer Dieter Rams.

The iPad is a tablet computer series released by Apple in 2010. It is positioned between Apple’s smartphone iPhone and laptop products. There are 4 virtual program fixed bars on the screen, which have the same layout as the iPhone, providing browsing websites and sending and receiving electronics. Mail, watch e-books, play audio or video, play games and other functions.

……

This is what Cao Yang wants to make in advance.

"Bomi Tablet PC."

Cao Yang stood up and painted the tablet computer he remembered on the whiteboard behind. Of course, the template was still referenced by the iPad.

The tablet computer is between the traditional notebook computer and the smart phone, and can be controlled by touch, but the computer screen is larger than the smart phone, and the function is closer to the computer.

Easy to carry, and at the same time has good computer characteristics, it has more office capabilities than mobile phones.

After listening to Cao Yang’s explanation, everyone present was shocked.

It was silent now, everyone raised their eyes and looked at Cao Yang.

This Nima...

Boss Cao is a monster, right?

Liu Qiang nodded, “It doesn’t sound complicated, it’s nothing more than providing a large mobile phone product with a large screen.”

"You can understand that." Cao Yang said with a smile, "In terms of positioning, it will be more inclined towards entertainment and office functions.

By the way, I hope a set of operating system Hongmeng 2.0 takes care of all equipment.

No need to develop operating system for Bomi Tablet PC separately. "

"Uh..." Liu Qiang felt that he had dug a big hole for himself.

A set of operating system handles all equipment...

Boss Cao put forward a very demanding request to Bomi’s R&D team.
