Chapter 1125 Software Valley’s Double Yolk Egg Plan

In the blink of an eye, one month later, in June in the capital, the concrete jungle was filled with heat waves.

In comparison, the courtyard houses in Houhai seem particularly quiet, and even a wonderful way to find tranquility in the midst of chaos.

Wu Tao was sitting in his study, with a pot of tea in hand, watching the overwhelming news on the Internet.

As the half-year period approaches, many mobile phone manufacturers are already busy preparing to launch new products this year.

Compared with previous years, in addition to Nokia and Motorola still targeting Yuanqi Technology, scrambling to appear in the media and throwing out some attention-grabbing gimmicks, this year's Samsung mobile phones also stood out with their excellent color screen performance. , becoming one of the most watched mobile phone manufacturers.

With the precedent of using screen quality as a selling point, South Korea's LG and Japan's Sharp are all ready to eye this booming mobile phone market.

After all, in their opinion, when it comes to accessories such as color screens, as a supplier of Lotus mobile phones, their quality is no worse than Samsung's.

Since Samsung can attract attention with its excellent materials, it is only natural for them to have the idea of ​​​​getting a vote.

In addition, compared with the high-end market, the mid- to low-end market is also experiencing strong growth.

Among them, the sudden rise of domestic mobile phone brands is particularly eye-catching.

Brands such as Kejian, Amoi, and Bird are heavily advertised, and the amount of advertising placed on CCTV and local satellite TV is even greater than that of the Lotus brand.

What's more, Bird even spent a lot of money to win the special naming rights for the second Super Girl.

This caused quite a stir at the time, and Yan Fei even made a special trip to Wu Tao to report it.

As the boss, what can Wu Tao say? The palm of the hand is flesh, and the back of the hand is also flesh. At this time, we can only follow the rules of the market economy, and whoever gives more money will be named.

Of course, nowadays, there are endless posts on the Internet about Lotus mobile phones and Yuanqi Technology. In addition to losing the naming rights of the second Super Girl, it is also related to Yuanqi Technology's low-key performance.

As the dates of various product launches approach, Nokia, Motorola, and even Samsung have successively launched some new features of the new products of the season, which has almost whetted the appetite of users.

In contrast, Yuanqi Technology has made no other noise except throwing out an integrated WLAN technology.

Regarding this, Leng Ning, who is the head of Lotus R&D, is more depressed than anyone else.

This WLAN patented technology alone is not something developed by Yuanqi Technology, but a trophy obtained from the original acquisition of Ericsson's mobile phone division.

In addition, in the email sent by my boss, all new mobile phone features are related to the user experience.

Although the workload is not small, it seems to be just a patchwork of an old product, and it cannot really be called an innovation.

As for the screen material and display effect, it is indeed much better than last year. It's just that according to Yuanqi Technology's habits, it will never be as shameless as Samsung, and it can also regard this as a core selling point to vigorously promote it.

So, after taking a closer look, Leng Ning concluded that his new product research and development process this year was actually a failure.

She really didn't understand how the chief designer of Lotus mobile phones and her boss, who was always the most innovative, had the confidence to compete with such a so-called new product with general selling points against the eyeing rival brands?

Just when I was wondering, the phone on the table suddenly rang. I glanced at the caller ID out of habit, and it turned out to be the boss.

Leng Ning quickly picked up and his tone immediately became respectful, "Boss, are you looking for me?"

Wu Tao's voice came through the phone, "Well, I've seen the latest mobile phone sample. Everything else is pretty good, but the downloading, installation, and upgrading of mobile applications are too troublesome and the user experience is not good."

Leng Ning didn't dare to neglect. He took the pen and paper and said, "Boss, can you be more specific? I'll take note of it."

"For example, the installation of each application requires an authorization certificate. Although this certificate can be downloaded from our APP market, it ends up being an extra step, which makes it cumbersome."

In this regard, Leng Ning immediately explained: "Boss, this certificate is designed to create a loophole for application control to facilitate our control of the application market. If there is a need for access and other audits in the future, it will be convenient for implantation... …”

Wu Tao thought about it for a while, but insisted on his own opinion. After all, the Symbian system, which was once popular in the previous life, gradually killed his own system because of the authorization of digital certificates.

"I don't think it's necessary. It's best to remove it, so as to attract more users and developers. However, the security and stability of the application, and the need for user confirmation and authorization during installation are still necessary."

After a phone call, Wu Tao mentioned a dozen points piecemeal, but they were all minor flaws and details.

This made Leng Ning feel very uneasy. It seemed that she would never be able to settle down without being scolded by her boss.

So when she was about to hang up the phone, she couldn't help but ask: "Boss, are we going to use WLAN technology as the main promotion point for this year's Lotus new products? But the application of WLAN has not yet been launched, and our Lotus Even if a mobile phone can access WLAN, it will be of little use."

Wu Tao smiled at this, "Don't worry, among the projects invested by Tianqi at the beginning of the year, there are already many small companies implementing WLAN networks. It won't be long before WLANs in some public places can be deployed. By then, we The WLAN for mobile phones is unique to Scorpion."

As soon as he hung up the phone on Leng Ning, Song Zhuang strode into the yard, walked into the study in two or two steps and said, "Boss, Deputy Director Zheng is here."

Wu Tao immediately thought of the somewhat coquettish official woman.

Exactly a month ago, she brought representatives from Shenzhen City to find her and proposed that Shenzhen City be included in the first batch of pilot areas for the Software Valley Plan to realize a double-yolked egg plan.

In this regard, Wu Tao had no reason to refuse at all. After all, this would also help enhance the influence of the Software Valley plan.

In addition, there are Internet companies like Tencent in Shenzhen City, which can easily create a hot spot effect and attract a large number of Internet practitioners to gather together.

So the final result was reported like this.

Counting the days, it’s time for the central government’s approval process to come down.

Following Song Zhuang, he walked quickly to the front hall. Zheng Jingjing, who was wearing a long skirt, put down the tea cup and stood up Yingying. The ladylike posture really surprised Wu Tao.

In the past, her dressing style was not so feminine, so why did she change her look now?

"Director Zheng is very elegant today. I'm here at this humble residence. I don't know what you are doing." Wu Tao took the initiative to step forward and pointed to the seats and Zheng Jingjing sat down separately as the guest of honour.

Zheng Jingjing had a smile on her face and was so happy that she didn't even have the time to joke, so she blurted out: "Mr. Wu, the Software Valley Project has been approved by the central government. It will be piloted in Jinling and Shenzhen at the same time. Within a week, the red-headed document will be issued. !”
