As negative stories about several of the "Top Ten Touching Figures" began to surface online,
Zhou Chen received good news: Su Jiajia suddenly sent good news that the most troublesome problem of the HarmonyOS system had been solved.
We are now officially entering the testing phase to patch any potential vulnerabilities.
This was an absolute surprise for Zhou Chen, because he had been waiting for this day for far too long. From the moment he started planning the HarmonyOS system, he had been thinking about the mobile phone system being released ahead of schedule.
To this end, they spared no expense in poaching foreign experts to work for them and create a mobile phone system that belonged to their own country.
Now, we have finally achieved our goal before Android and Apple systems can seize the market in the country.
Next, he can leverage smartphones as a foundation to develop numerous software programs that will change society and the world. Those are enormous treasure troves. Compared to them, businesses like stinky tofu, milk tea, and exam papers are just small fry, not even in the same dimension or level. Those powerful apps are the future.
"The reason this problem was solved is not only due to the high salaries we paid to recruit several foreign experts, but also because of the significant role played by our domestic talents. In particular, several thorny issues were perfectly resolved by our talents using ingenious ideas. I have decided to give each of those people a reward of 500,000 yuan."
"Five hundred thousand is too little. Any employee who makes an outstanding contribution will be rewarded with one million."
Zhou Chen wouldn't show favoritism. He awarded one million yuan to the top ten people who moved the nation, so as a meritorious employee of the company, he certainly couldn't be left out. It would be disheartening. Even though Hongmeng Technology hasn't started making money yet and is in a state of only spending and not earning, Zhou Chen is still willing to spend such a sum of money.
"I'll pay for this myself, and I'll transfer it to you later."
"General Manager Su, you have two things to do next, and these two things are related to the future of HarmonyOS, especially the first one."
Zhou Chen's voice suddenly turned serious.
The development of the HarmonyOS system is a cause for celebration, but it doesn't mean that having a mobile operating system means we can compete with the two foreign companies. To form a strong competitive advantage, we must do two things.
First, he needs to develop his own chips to prevent being held back by others in the future. As far as he knows, in his previous life, domestically produced chips were not weak at first. However, due to global competition, foreign chips were cheaper and easier to use, which led to the country not having a strong desire to develop its own chips. This caused a series of consequences. In this life, he wants to try his best to avoid such a thing from happening.
Secondly, building an APP ecosystem is essential. A smartphone alone is useless without matching apps running on it; a phone is just a useless brick. Whether it's Android or Apple, as pioneers in this area, they have a natural advantage. Many companies that are optimistic about smartphones are designing apps based on these two mobile operating systems.
Therefore, HarmonyOS also needs compatible apps. This is not something that can be accomplished by one or two companies; it requires the collaboration of many companies to create a huge ecosystem.
This meeting,
The two talked for a long time. After all, the difficulty of the next two tasks was no less than that of developing the HarmonyOS system. Zhou Chen had to explain the pros and cons and the reasons why he had to do it to Su Jiajia.
Of course, it would be too difficult for Zhou Chen to do it on his own, so he would need to cooperate with Huawei. As long as Su Jiajia told Grandpa Ren what he had said, Zhou Chen believed that Grandpa Ren would definitely support him.
Mr. Ren understands the importance of domestic production better than anyone else.
Otherwise, in his previous life, Old Master Ren wouldn't have come up with so many backup plans. He still admired this old man very much.
In a way, he was actually learning from Mr. Ren.
As Su Jiajia sat in the car, watching Zhou Chen's retreating figure as he entered the campus, her heart was once again filled with turmoil.
Because she hadn't expected Zhou Chen's ambitions to be so grand. She had thought he was just working on the mobile phone operating system, but she hadn't realized that he was also targeting mobile phone chips. Although she didn't know much about chips, she could vaguely sense that the difficulty of developing them was far greater than that of developing a mobile phone operating system.
Secondly, undertaking this project again would mean another large investment.
Can Zhou Chen's existing businesses really sustain and support this enormous money-devouring beast?
Su Jiajia originally wanted to persuade him, but she knew that Zhou Chen was the kind of person who would resolutely carry out his decisions once he made them. On the other hand, she felt that what Zhou Chen said made sense; they couldn't completely trust or rely on foreign countries, and they needed to have their own things.
"But this is really not an ordinary problem."
A moment later,
Su Jiajia gave a helpless, bitter smile. She had thought that once she got the phone system sorted out, she could relax for a while, or at least not be too tired. But after talking with Zhou Chen again, she realized that taking a break was just wishful thinking. She was in for a lot of work.
This mission is even more challenging.
Not only does she need to continue in-depth cooperation with Huawei, but she also needs to visit many technology companies and discuss the APP ecosystem, all of which require her personal involvement.
Despite her complaints, Su Jiajia knew that Zhou Chen, though seemingly a hands-off manager, wasn't having an easy time. Take the upcoming chip research and development, for example; even if Huawei agreed to cooperate, they would still have to pay for it.
Can Zhou Chen's businesses really handle that huge sum of money?
Su Jiajia shook her head. These were not things she should worry about. She only needed to do what Zhou Chen had instructed. As for the money, she would let Zhou Chen figure it out. She believed that since Zhou Chen had said those things today, he could definitely handle it himself.
