Top of the big era

The chip industry was born in Silicon Valley, called Fairchild.

Later, Fairchild employees gradually left and kept betraying. After these people left, they all founded their own chip companies... and then continued to betray and leave, and continued to create new chip companies. It's like a seed spreading and forming the current global chip industry pattern, growing into a towering tree.

Qualcomm is no exception.

Mr. Jacob created a new chip direction CDMA, which became the cornerstone of Qualcomm's development. When he left, his son Jacob took over, but this was not good, and he lost control of the company. All kinds of industry elites together dominated Qualcomm's current decision-making power.

When Qualcomm was founded, it was betrayed, so it ran to San Diego in southwestern California, far away from Silicon Valley. However, as Qualcomm grew larger and larger, Silicon Valley has always been a link they can't avoid, and the Silicon Valley R\u0026D Center is Qualcomm's most important business.

Anyway, they are all in California, not very far away, so Zhou Buqi is not in a hurry.

Go home first.

He saw Teacher Wen and Senior Sister Zhen Yu, and kissed Sisters Yaxian and Yameng. Finally, he even hugged Aunt Xue in front of Baoshan. If it was just a hug, it would not be a big deal. The key point is that Zhou Buqi's hand was not very honest during the hug, and he went straight into her pants along her lower back. Aunt Xue could not get angry either, and could only pray that no one would find out. Wen Zhixia was very sharp and saw Xue Baoshan coming over. If she walked behind Aunt Xue and saw the bulge in her pants, she would definitely find out. She quickly moved two steps and blocked Aunt Xue's side. While pinching his hand through Aunt Xue's pants, she asked with a smile: "Baoshan, how is your return to China this time? Are you pregnant?" Xue Baoshan pursed her lips and smiled, "Not yet, I have to work hard." Zhou Buqi let go of Aunt Xue with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "Teacher Wen, Baoshan and I will go to your room tonight, let's work hard together?" Wen Zhixia rolled her eyes at him. Did not refuse. In this kind of matter, as long as Zhou Buqi opened his mouth, no one in the family would refuse, except Aunt Xue who refused to obey.

After arriving home, Zhou Buqi went to take a bath first.

It was agreed that we would go to Teacher Wen's room at night, so the opportunity for intimacy was given to sisters Yaxian and Yameng.

However, he had just entered the bathtub and soaked for a while.

Wen Zhixia came over, then took a small stool and sat next to the bathtub, ignoring his soft appearance, and said: "There is something, can you help me see it?"

"Work?"

"Yeah."

"Where is Zheng Xiaoli?"

"I'm asking you this." Wen Zhixia snorted, "She assigned me a task to be in charge of the Yahoo Music channel."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Good news, promotion!"

Yahoo has too many channels, and Yahoo Music can be said to be one of the most inconspicuous channels. But even so, it was enough to make Wen Zhixia happy. This is the United States. As the person in charge of this channel, she can manage more than a dozen American employees.

Wen Zhixia said, "Do you think Yahoo Music has a chance to develop greatly?"

Zhou Buqi was holding Yameng in his arms on the left, and was kissing her. He looked up when he heard this, a little surprised, "What big development?"

Wen Zhixia said, "How about music streaming? I'm still thinking about it, and I didn't dare to tell Zheng Xiaoli. You can help me with some advice first."

Zhou Buqi didn't hesitate at all and made a prompt decision, "Not very good!"

Wen Zhixia frowned slightly, "Why? This direction is very hot now, and Google has already participated. This year, Google's stock price has increased by 30%, and it has become a market value The second highest in the world at $360 billion is largely due to Google's launch of its music streaming business. "

"Google?" Zhou Buqi was a little surprised, "When did it happen?" Wen Zhixia said, "It was bundled with Android a few months ago and pre-installed in Google's Android service. Not only Google, but Apple also launched such a service last month, and Amazon seems to be following suit soon." "Oh my god!" Zhou Buqi finally understood what Spotify's complaints were about before, and he was intolerable and helpless about the record company's forced bundling sales model. This is a good reason! Internet giants such as Google, Apple, and Amazon are all involved in the streaming music industry, which can easily drive up copyright prices and give copyright holders with monopoly advantages more room for negotiation. Spotify disagrees, but those wealthy Internet giants will agree. It's just bundling sales, buy it or not! Wen Zhixia said softly, "The effect on Apple has not come out yet, and there is no need to worry too much about Amazon, but Google Music is very powerful now. After being bundled with Android, mobile phone users will automatically be bundled with the Google Music App after upgrading the system." Zhou Buqi didn't care, "It's okay, we have Spotify." Wen Zhixia was a little anxious, "Can Spotify really work? Google Music's growth is very fast. Although the price is higher, it has the advantage of being bundled with the Android system. With Spotify's strength, can it compete? These overseas Android users must have a big gift package of Google services!" This is indeed Google's killer weapon on the mobile side.

Relying on bundling with Android, Google’s service package includes more and more things, including Google Maps, Google Mail, Google Search, YouTube, Google Store, Google Chrome, Twitter, Google Wallet, Google Cloud Drive, etc.

By bundling Android, it really makes it difficult for similar competitors to compete.

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Don't worry, this strategy won't last long. The gift packages are getting bigger and bigger, and now they have negative effects. Many users are complaining about this uninformed bundling behavior, which can't even be deleted. Google It should be changed soon.”

Wen Zhixia shook his head slightly, "I don't think this is easy. Maybe Yahoo Music should do this. Spotify is a European company. I'm a little worried."

Zhou Buqi smiled and said: "Don't worry, Google can't make any decent products at the application level, even if it's bundled with Android, they can't beat Spotify. Well... What is Yahoo Music's main business now? Music information ?"

Wen Zhixia said: "Well, part of it is music information, some new album information, some artist news, etc., and also free music listening and music drainage. Yahoo App has a lot of traffic now. With such a large amount of traffic, Yahoo Music’s channel became very popular instantly, with more than 60 million daily users! I asked, but Spotify’s daily users are only 50 million, so it’s not a waste to divert all the traffic to others. ?”

Zhou Buqi pondered for a moment, "Teacher Wen, let's change Yahoo Music's strategy and give up external guidance of traffic."

"ah?"

Wen Zhixia was a little surprised.

Zhou Buqi continued: "Integrate Yahoo Music directly with Spotify. Except for retaining the information business, all other traffic will be given to Spotify. If you run this matter, you can promote Ziweixing International's strategic investment in Spotify. What you said Yes, since Apple, Google, and Amazon have all entered the market, Ziweixing must provide greater support to Spotify. The operation of streaming media is too complicated, so don’t bother and give resources to Spotify. , just let them do it themselves!”
