This is what happened to Cook, and Sundar, the current CEO of Google, is even more troubled.
Since I took over control of Google from the two founders Page and Brin in 2019, I haven't had many days of peace and quiet.
Looking at the bright figure of 1.2 billion, Sundar's heart was bleeding.
More than 70% of this big number are Android users!
Neither Symbian nor Microsoft has defeated Android in the field of mobile operating systems, but now a young man from Daxia has actually eaten up so much of Android's share.
The company's stock price, which had finally risen with great difficulty before, has now fallen by 9%, which is simply unbelievable.
After thinking about this, he gritted his teeth and growled: "Damn Jiuzhou Technology, damn Daxia mobile phone manufacturer!"
But before he finished speaking, a phone call came.
Sundar picked up the phone and wanted to throw it away, but when he saw the name on the caller ID, he took a deep breath and held back.
Forcibly controlling his emotions, he answered the phone.
"Hello, this is Sundar Pichai."
The voice on the other end of the phone was a little low, as low as a devil in the dark.
"I'm Paige. Come to my office in half an hour. There is a small meeting here that requires your participation."
Without giving Sundar time to reply, the call was hung up.
Putting the phone on the desk, Sundar slumped in the chair.
Google has never been a company where one person or two or three people can make the final decision. In addition to Page and Brin, the financial backers and real managers behind it also have some forces, and they have a huge say, even more powerful than him. The CEO is still big.
Baimeng book
The meaning of Page's phone call was also very obvious. If he was lucky, he might become a puppet and continue to be popular. If he was unlucky, he might become a puppet on strings and continue to be popular. I'm afraid he, an Indian-American, will not end well...
As for running away now?
I'm afraid the bullet will appear from nowhere the next day, and it won't even make the headlines.
A free country means freedom within the boundaries of capital, once the real core interests are touched.
Then the blood of capital will swarm in.
Seeing the excitement, disdain, or other reactions of netizens on the Internet was like playing a movie at this moment. Sundar could not change and could only passively accept it.
Before half an hour was up, he walked into Page's office cautiously, and then the assistant closed the door tightly.
Sundar walked into the house, glanced at the office environment, and then his heart stopped for a moment.
"Damn, general rank and black suit."
He couldn't remember clearly what happened next because he was so nervous.
But he remembers shaking his head at many of the questions these people asked about Jiuzhou Technology.
“Can all applications and systems of Jiuzhou Technology be banned from using Android software?”
"From a technical standpoint and from an enterprise developer agreement standpoint, we can't ban it."
"Has Jiuzhou Technology invaded your server? Did it plagiarize the Android system, even if there is one line of code that is the same, such as an alarm clock? Time display?"
"Google servers are attacked every day, but the IP address of Jiuzhou Technology has not been traced. In terms of code, we have not yet been able to analyze the shell that breaks through the Gonggong system."
"Can Android be bound to mobile phone manufacturers and become the only system? And mobile phone manufacturers are not allowed to install the Gonggong system?"
When he heard this question, Sundar's heart almost collapsed.
He replied with a wry smile: "Our Android is a product that provides services. In order to build an ecosystem, we have signed extremely loose agreements with these mobile phone manufacturers, so we cannot instruct the decisions of Daxia mobile phone manufacturers."
Of course, he still wanted to do this and might even push the Daxia mobile phone manufacturers in the direction of Kyushu Technology, but looking at the red neck on the collar of the suit of the questioner, Sundar almost instinctively did not dare to say more.
Then he walked out of Page's office.
Before he could catch his breath, he saw several technical leaders of the Android system entering Page's office.
When he wanted to take another look, a strong man in uniform came forward.
"Mr. Sundar, please do not linger here."
Looking at the small thing on the strong man's waist, Sundar subconsciously raised his hands: "Okay, sir, I'll leave now."
The company's CEO cannot stay in the company's office building! ?
It’s truly something I’ve never seen or heard.
But placed here, it makes sense.
The part of the real giant crocodile on the water is quiet, and people who don't know the situation may even regard it as a dead tree on the water.
And when the crocodile opens its mouth, the elites who are in a moment of glory will instantly become trembling.
But he didn't know that after all of Google's elites were interrogated one by one, the atmosphere in Page's office became much more relaxed.
"I mean, isn't there a way to stop that damn Kyushu Technology Gonggong system from spreading around the world?!!!"
Although this question was very retarded, and he even mentioned it a few times, Page patiently explained: "From a technical perspective, yes, and although our agreement allows those mobile phone manufacturers to refuse to give Gonggong The system provides Google services, but it cannot prevent all manufacturers from linking to Google services."
At this time, the man in uniform said: "Then please ask the two of you to come to our department at ten o'clock tomorrow morning. We will gather relevant experts to discuss how to solve this troublesome matter."
Page nodded. It was obvious that this matter could not be solved by Google alone. It could still be led by relevant departments as before.
Although he is not optimistic that the other party can properly solve this problem.
Unlike Google's reaction, Pingguo Cook quickly calmed down after being angry.
And he contacted the reporter for an exclusive interview. After selling his character and reviewing the glorious history of Pingguo, he said very modestly: "We welcome Jiuzhou Technology to the big family of smartphone systems. Pingguo is currently active in the world. There are more than 1.65 billion mobile phones and tablets, which also means that the number of Apple IOS system users has also reached 1.65 billion, while the number of Google’s Android smartphones and tablets has exceeded 1 billion.
All of us are here to allow users to experience better information services in the information technology society. However, we in Pingguo fully respect the laws and regulations of each country. We have also set up a cloud service company in Daxia to manage Pingguo users in Daxia. Xia Xia’s data, while Jiuzhou Technology currently has very few information data services around the world.
I am very worried about what will happen to the information data of these users? Those bank card passwords, payment passwords, and personal information are all in the hands of Jiuzhou Technology. This is too unsafe and disrespects the user's data freedom.
I think if Jiuzhou Technology can consider its users, we in Pingguo actually have world-leading technology in this area, and our business reputation will definitely be much better than that of their company which has only been established for a few years. "
What is Yin Yang speaking?
That's it.
If I can't beat you technically, then I'll mock you from other angles.
As a result, many people were deceived and even sent letters to Jiuzhou Technology's mailbox asking Jiuzhou Technology to quickly establish a data service company in their country.
Of course, Jiuzhou Technology’s customer service department has a mature response mechanism for these people’s requests.
"Thank you for your suggestion. Our company is aware of it and is contacting all parties to seek cooperation. Please wait."
Will these suggestions be adopted?
If the departments of those countries are willing to jointly create enterprises to implement servers, why wouldn't Gu Qing do it anyway?
Just like the current Jiulong in the cloud, if you give money and benefits, and build the server, Jiuzhou Technology can still use it when you need it.
It's like this abroad, but it's even more intense at home.
In fact, there are already many players in domestic systems for smart operating systems. Except for Jiuzhou Technology and Xiawei, other companies' systems are limited by technical capabilities, ecological construction, software and hardware compatibility, etc. Their domestic market share Many of them are a few tenths or even a few tenths. Even Xia Wei, which has hardware advantages, has not yet exceeded 100 million users.
1.2 billion is really unthinkable.
so. Dong Qi couldn't withstand the repeated bombardments from various bosses, so he shifted the pressure to the rightful owner.
President Ren, President Lei, President Zhang, many of them couldn't sit still.
A meal is inevitable.
It is a traditional tradition in Daxia to have good conversations only if you eat well and drink well.
This is also an influential dinner party.
From Xia Wei, the leader, to Da Mi, who has always been at odds with Xia Wei, and then to the boss of Bu Bu Gao and the heads of subsidiaries such as Opo, no one is a loser.
Everyone is well aware of the eccentricities of this young man, Gu Qing, and it is extremely rare to get an appointment for a meal, so we can have this meal where all the bosses can be in the same room.
However, Xia Wei was the leader of the dinner party, but it was Jiuzhou Technology who chose the place and even gave the money.
The location is of course food, delicious food, a small restaurant in the old town of Chengdu.
The boss was a bit stubborn at first and refused to let Jiuzhou Technology book the venue, saying that he wanted to leave a place for regular customers to eat. However, the boss's daughter-in-law saw that the order was from Jiuzhou Technology, and she was moved. Reasonably convinced the old man.
One hundred thousand Xia Yuan is not a lot, but it is still a lot.
This daughter-in-law is also a fast person and even said that she can waive the bill as long as she takes a few group photos of everyone.
However, this request was ruthlessly rejected, and on the day of the dinner, the cafeteria chefs from Jiuzhou Technology came to this small restaurant. Among the hotel chefs and busboys, only a few people were left who could help at any time. All are on holiday.
It was all Gu Qing's fault that caused such trouble.
His meaning is also clear.
Treating guests to a meal is the way to treat guests, but confidentiality issues and food safety issues are top priorities. He neither wants to see any group photos taken out for publicity, nor does he want to encounter unexpected situations when eating out.
The reason for not following the old rules and going to the cafeteria to eat is to show that we take it seriously. After all, this matter is very important and cannot be tolerated.
From Jiuzhou Technology, Gu Qing and Dong Qi were present, and from Xia Wei, Mr. Ren and Yu Chengdong were present. From other companies, basically the heads of the family came in person, and some of them met Gu Qing for the first time.
The quality of this dinner was comparable to the last time the Daxia Software Development Alliance was formed, but the number of people was much smaller.
Of course, this is just a comparison. After everyone arrived, the largest table in the restaurant was just full.
Gu Qing wanted to grab a drink and made an impassioned speech: "Recalling the past software development alliance meetings, my small company made the big bosses feel like they were holding back their throats, and they reluctantly admitted their status under pressure from all parties. But now, who among the companies dares to turn their backs on me? "
Of course, he couldn't say such a simple slap in the face.
The reality was that Gu Qing offered tea instead of wine and toasted everyone.
Treat each other with courtesy and be very polite.
Most of the people present here are top-notch people. Even if they secretly want to annex the other party's company share, they will still look friendly and enjoy each other's meals when they get to the dinner table.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the oldest Mr. Ren stopped eating and sighed: "Today is really a day worth celebrating. We Xia Wei are working on our own system, and we have a deeper understanding of Jiuzhou Technology." It’s not easy, we pay tribute to Mr. Gu and all the outstanding people of Jiuzhou Technology.”
Lifting wine glasses and tea cups together, Gu Qing and Dong Qi said humbly: "It's not easy for everyone."
Then everyone drank it all in one gulp. Of course, no one here felt that Gu Qing and Dong Qi had any disrespect for everyone when they drank tea.
Due to their strength and status, no one would have such an idea, or even if they did, they would not be able to express it.
After a cup of wine, Mr. Ren said: "Gonggong System has gained 1.2 billion users around the world. On a large scale, this is already comparable to Pingguo System's achievements. On a small scale, this is how our domestic system has broken through the encirclement of foreign companies." A big victory, but has Mr. Gu figured out how to deal with the counterattacks from companies like Google and Pingguo?"
These words touched the itch of many bosses.
Mr. Lei also interjected: "And we manufacturers also have a lot of obstacles. Qualcomm and Google have already cooperated to develop business last year. Let me be frank, we all need Qualcomm's chips very much."
As soon as these words came out, the meal suddenly became cold.
Ren always wanted to speak slowly, but Mr. Lei simply brought the unspeakable secrets to the table.
Gu Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Facing the big bosses, he chuckled and said: "Zhuge Liang can divide the world into three parts. Although I, Gu Qing, am not talented, I also have some ideas.
Screens that are better than Korean stars are already being supplied to all partners. Domestic screen manufacturers such as Beijing North also have our technical support. This is one of them.
Xia Xin Technology's chip foundry is 7nm in the media promotion, but I can say that Xia Xin Technology's 7nm foundry technology this year is not much different in performance and process from TSMC's 5nm. Even Xia Xin Technology's foundry technology The power consumption of the chip will be much smaller than that of TSMC.
Of course, I know that except for Xia Wei, none of my friends have the design capabilities for such high-end chips, but our company does. I can also promise that this chip can definitely compete with or even be better than Qualcomm chips. After we reach a cooperation agreement After that, everyone can see the relevant information.
Secondly, I can promise my partners that the Gonggong system will always be free, and that system services will not draw high rebates, such as map positioning functions and software malls. You can directly discuss cooperation with technology suppliers, and even it will be completely free.
So, can you all? "
Gu Qing took out the screen, chip, and system. These three killer moves made the bosses present look confused. (To be continued)
