The purpose of Google's policy is to require all mobile phone manufacturers to obtain authorization and consent from Google as long as they use Google series of APPs or application services.
Although the Android system is free, the series of services and APPs developed by Google are not for you to use at will.
Now other brands of Android phones can use a series of Google applications. This does not mean that Google is rich, but that Google hopes to establish an ecological chain for the Android system. This ambition is the same as Apple's ambition to establish an iOS ecological chain.
Among the many Android phone manufacturers around the world, Samsung is undoubtedly Google’s biological son.
Google provides its excellent services and applications to Samsung. Every latest Android system update is pushed to Samsung first.
Therefore, Google’s introduction of application authorization policy this time actually does not have much impact on the entire Android ecological chain.
But the impact on the non-Android ecological chain is very large.
Including Apple's IOS and Hanhai Technology's Yinghuo operating system.
These Google applications have become the most frequently used applications in the Western mobile Internet market in the early years.
When everyone talks about searching for information, they will definitely use the Google search engine.
Gmail accounts for more than 80% of the incoming and outgoing mailboxes.
Google Weather shares data with European meteorological bureaus, and Google also has its own big data algorithm to help European meteorological bureaus improve the accuracy of weather forecasts.
Google Maps has the most accurate map data in the West and has in-depth cooperation with GPS.
With its extremely fast response speed and rich functions, Google Chrome has also become the browser with the largest number of mobile users in the world.
For a long time in the past, both Android and iOS users have been inseparable from the Google series of applications.
Now even if Changtian Technology launches Hanhai mobile phone and Yinghuo operating system, Western users cannot do without these applications.
After Google's policy came out, Apple immediately contacted Google and completed the corresponding application preparation and licensing system in accordance with Google's requirements.
In fact, anyone with a discerning eye knows that this policy launched by Google is not aimed at Apple, but at Changtian Technology.
Without using Google series software, it will have no impact on domestic users.
The country has long been wary of mobile Internet security. No matter how coercive and tempting Western countries are, they must develop their own set of application ecosystems.
So we have Baidu, AutoNavi, various online mailboxes, UC or QQ browsers, etc., and we are almost free of the control and monopoly of Android series applications on users.
But Western users are different.
Now that we have basically left the Google system, most of the functions of the mobile phone will be lost.
Now the ball has come to Changtian Technology and Hanhai Technology.
Jobs was very anxious and immediately used his personal connections in the United States, hoping to reach a private settlement with Google so that Google could also authorize the Firefly operating system to use the Google series of applications.
But Steve Jobs fully felt what it means to leave someone alone.
If Jobs were now working for a Western technology company, then his connections might still be of some use.
When Steve Jobs was working for Changtian Technology, it was a technology company from Xia Guo, and it formed a competitive relationship with many Western technology companies.
Therefore, these personal connections are worthless in the face of interests.
Of course, Jobs' efforts were not without effect.
His former partner and current Google executive Carl Vinson invited Jobs to meet in California, saying that there was still room for some effort in this matter.
Hanhai Mobile's business in Europe must not be affected.
Jobs immediately went to California with his team, hoping to buy some time for Hanhai Technology.
At the same time, Chen Xiao has been paying attention to Google's reaction and discussing countermeasures with Wang Xiang.
Wang Xiang has just returned from Europe, so he is very aware of some application habits of European users.
Wang Xiang said: "According to the current European environment, it is difficult for us to let Xia Guo's applications replace the Google system."
"There are mainly two reasons. On the one hand, it is difficult to change users' application habits, especially Gmail and Google search engines."
"On the other hand, Google has extensive cooperation with Europe. If we want domestic application manufacturers to join our application matrix to provide services for European users, they will definitely face European market access barriers. I don't believe that the United States will not Interfere with this matter.”
Wang Xiang's analysis is very reasonable.
While the two parties were discussing, Song Yi walked in, looking a little anxious.
Song Yi walked in and said: "I just got the news that Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Skyle and other applications have successively issued announcements, saying that for the sake of user privacy and information security, they will only support IOS and Android system updates in the future. , other operating systems will no longer be supported."
Song Yi said: "I just read the announcements of these companies respectively, and there is not much time left for us. For example, Facebook only leaves us three months. From now on, Facebook will not Updates will support other operations, but after three months, others will close access to their servers from other operating systems."
"The time left for us for several other applications also ranges from two months to half a year."
After Song Yi said this, her breathing became a little messy.
She believes that Google's announcement and these applications' announcement to terminate services for the Firefly system are definitely not a whim, let alone a coincidence, but deliberate.
All this is to cut off Hanhai Technology's overseas sales chain, force Hanhai Technology to make some compromises, or retreat to the country of Xia and become a domestic mobile phone manufacturer in Xia, rather than a global mobile phone manufacturer.
Chen Xiao looked at the lists handed over by Song Yi. Whether it was Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, these applications had strong social attributes.
That is to say, users have their own circle of friends, their own friends and space in these applications.
The advent of the mobile Internet era has made virtual social circles increasingly important, and users have spent a long time building their own circles in these applications.
Before the "circle" of Hanhai system is established, if you let users make choices, users will inevitably give up Hanhai mobile phones. After all, connections and social interaction are priceless.
Chen Xiao sneered in his heart.
Now it’s interesting.
Companies like Samsung, Google, and Apple have all joined forces to knock Hanhai Technology off the gaming table.
Chen Xiao said: "Talk! Talk to the other party, first talk to Google, ask Google about its intentions or conditions, and then talk to these application companies one by one. I remember that we just reached an agreement with Instagram a few months ago. Instagram has changed its mind about the cooperation agreement now. If there is no Apple factor in this, I don’t believe it.”
Chen Xiao said at the end of the meeting: "Negotiate first, then play your cards."
Chen Xiao expected that Apple and Google would make this move, but was a little surprised that they reached unification so quickly.
Chen Xiao didn't believe it if the two sides didn't make concessions that violated principles in some areas.
It is actually the best way for Apple, Samsung, and Google to set traps at the application level.
In this way, they can successfully bypass the European telecommunications companies (European telecommunications companies have a good cooperative relationship with Changtian Technology and can stand on the side of Hanhai Mobile for their own interests) and directly take money from the bottom of the Hanhai Mobile cauldron.
In Europe, Simpson also feels the chill in the mobile phone and mobile Internet markets.
After the announcement by Duojia App Company, it attracted the attention of media around the world and reported it comprehensively.
This makes European consumers who are just interested in Hanhai mobile phones change their minds when they hear that their favorite applications cannot be used on Hanhai mobile phones.
Although the Hanhai mobile phone is good, it cannot use a series of social software. Such a mobile phone has lost its most important function.
The most critical thing is that the current volume of these social applications is too huge. Before there is a good replacement software, if you don’t use these social software and everyone else is using it, then you will be out of touch with the circle around you.
The wait and see of users has also caused the sales of Hanhai mobile phones, which were booming in the past few days, to stagnate. Simpson has nothing to do at this moment!
In many Nokia experience stores and communication stores in Europe, many users have begun to ask whether Hanhai mobile phones support applications such as Facebook.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
“Does Nokia Hanhai mobile phone really not support Google applications?”
"I heard that Facebook and Twitter will also cut off other operating systems from their servers in three months."
"Is this a rumor or true? Can Nokia give an accurate answer?"
Now Changtian Technology does not have an accurate answer, let alone Nokia.
Simpson didn't answer.
After not getting the answer they wanted, more than 95% of people gave up their purchase plan.
What Simpson didn't expect was that something was going to happen after Google and many application companies stopped supporting the Firefly system.
Samsung's legal department has filed lawsuits in many European countries such as Germany and France, and has also filed complaints with the EU's intellectual property department.
The content is that Hanhai mobile phones infringe Samsung's intellectual property rights in many aspects, including appearance, voice assistant, etc. Some of the intellectual property rights were originally shared by Samsung and Nokia and were used by Changtian Technology.
Blessings never come alone, and misfortunes never come alone.
What the ancients said is absolutely correct.
Seeing the sales of Hanhai mobile phones plummeting in the European market, Simpson suddenly felt like he was on a roller coaster and had no way to turn back.
At this moment, Jobs also met his old friend Carl Vinson in California.
As original partners, the two have been together since their youth.
In the end, he chose a completely different path.
Two people were sitting together drinking iced coffee.
Jobs made his request directly to Carl Vinson without any pleasantries.
Ask Google to give Hanhai Technology fair treatment.
The reason is that Hanhai Mobile has the best users in the world, and the number of users is still increasing rapidly.
At this moment, Jobs is more urgent than ever to reach an agreement with Google.
Because by the time he arrived at the coffee shop, he had already received more bad news from Simpson.
Carl Vinson was very happy to meet Steve Jobs.
Sometimes the friendship between men becomes more precious as time goes by.
But friendship is friendship and business is business.
Carl Vinson joked to Jobs: In 2010, Google was forced to withdraw from the Xiaguo market. "
"This setback has a huge impact on Google's global strategy and has completely changed Google executives' view of Xia Guo."
"Since we are both old friends, I will tell you the truth. The chances of Google changing its mind are slim."
"But since you have come to California in person, both me and our boss still hope to meet you."
Jobs said with a smile: "I have learned some traditional wisdom during my long time in Xia."
"There is a saying in the Xia Kingdom: Where there is sincerity, gold and stone can be opened. There is another saying: Where there is a will, there is a way."
"No matter what the outcome is, I also hope to meet Mr. Sanda."
Sundar is the current CEO of Google.
The decision to stop a large number of Google applications from supporting the Firefly system also came from his direct order.
The next day, Jobs and Sundar met at Google's headquarters.
Sangda has no sincerity in reaching cooperation with Changtian Technology and Hanhai Technology.
Instead, the conversation changed and he extended an olive branch to Jobs.
I hope Steve Jobs can join Google.
After all, Google also has its own mobile phone brand, but in terms of creativity and reputation, it is far behind the popular Samsung and Apple.
With Jobs' ability and reputation, if he joins Google, he will definitely be able to make Google mobile phones shine.
Jobs changed the topic again and said, "Sir, you should have seen the launch of Hanhai Mobile Phone." "I always feel that whether it is Firefly operating system or Android operating system, our purpose is to make it more convenient for users to use mobile phones. "
"The Firefly operating system is very inclusive, and it does not want to go its own way so that other applications or other operating systems have no way to go."
"Instead, it will allow other applications and other applications or operating systems to directly tolerate and learn from each other."
"Mr. Sanda, I didn't understand such an idea at first."
"But since I joined Changtian Technology, after chatting with Chen Xiao and using Hanhai mobile phones, I realized that this is definitely a genius idea, and this is also the ultimate path of human mobile Internet!"
Jobs talked with serious words and deep heart.
But these words sounded very ridiculous to Sanda and the executives behind him.
They feel that Firefly OS wants to eat up Android.
Before Sanda could speak, the executive behind him stood up and said: "Mr. Jobs, the mobile version of the Firefly operating system is currently used by no more than 20 million people worldwide, and the number of users of the Android operating system has almost exceeded that number. One billion people.”
"The two operating systems are not at the same level at all, so I can't understand what you just said."
Another executive joked, Jobs said: "Of course we can also cooperate. Google's request is that Xia Guo must unconditionally accept Google's operation in the Xia Guo market, and at the same time Yinghuo Technology Company will give up half of its shares. Give us."
This time I forgot that I came to the United States with Steve Jobs.
After hearing this, Wen Qi's face turned dark.
