Huawei's HarmonyOS system faced much criticism from the very beginning.
Many people believe that HarmonyOS is just a reskinned version of Android. Whether it's truly a reskinned version or not remains an official statement.
However, whether or not you reskin your system is not important; what matters is whether your system is user-friendly.
Taking the Android system as an example, back then, the Android system also used Linux as its kernel and adopted the Java development ecosystem for the application layer.
After acquiring Android, Google spent a great deal of effort fighting the lawsuit. This was because Google used a lot of open-source code but commercialized Android.
These things are too far removed from consumers. They don't care whether Huawei's HarmonyOS is a reskinned Android or not; in fact, they might even secretly hope that it is a reskinned Android.
To paraphrase a popular saying online: Seeing how shameless this guy is, I feel relieved.
For consumers, what they care about is whether HarmonyOS is easy to use.
Previously, grand narratives could be used to bind consumers, but this approach has become increasingly unsustainable in the last two years.
More and more consumers are realizing that no matter how grand the narrative, even if it's about going to the stars and the sea, it has nothing to do with them.
(Given that the user experience of the products is roughly the same, I will try my best to support domestic products, not just Huawei.)
As for the application of HarmonyOS in the industrial sector, this is even more true. While the requirements for systems in industry are lower than those for individual users in some aspects, the requirements in key areas are very high.
Just like chips in the aerospace field require extreme stability, stability must be guaranteed even under extreme conditions.
Stability is also required in the industrial sector.
Huayi Mining has performed well in recent years and has already entered the daily production of three large coal mining enterprises in China.
However, in the VR field, Huawei is a complete newcomer, and the only product they can offer is the Huawei VR glasses from a long time ago.
Those glasses have a bit of an "IQ tax" feel to them.
Without the accumulation of relevant technologies, we need to develop a new industrial VR system based on HarmonyOS.
Li Miaomiao was skeptical of this.
Having worked in a tech company for a long time, Li Miaomiao has a certain understanding of technology.
When subordinates report on their work, they often explain technical concepts in a simple and easy-to-understand way.
Futureverse is now a system based on the Linux kernel, and HarmonyOS's kernel is also based on Linux.
In Li Miaomiao's mind, there was absolutely no need to develop a new industrial VR system.
Huawei will not admit that HarmonyOS is just an Android skin, but they also dare not deny that their kernel is not Linux.
Although Huawei claims that it is completely independently developed and is not making another Android or another Linux.
The question raised by Li Miaomiao was entirely within Huawei's expectations, and Huawei's executives replied:
“We do lack experience in the VR system field, but industrial VR and personal VR are two completely different concepts.”
"Industrial VR systems developed based on the HarmonyOS system can exhibit better stability."
"Huawei's smart industry solution is a complete solution that includes biological storage servers, network equipment, HarmonyOS, and more."
"HarmonyOS is the best platform to connect the front-end application layer and the back-end hardware devices. If it were another system, it would not be able to match Huawei's hardware devices so well."
"It will have some impact on the stability of communication."
"I don't deny that there are commercial considerations in building an industrial VR system based on HarmonyOS, but it's more about the technical integrity."
Both parties reached a preliminary cooperation agreement.
The specific cooperation method still needs to be discussed and agreed upon by the senior executives of Kechuang Bio.
"Chairman Zheng means that we can cooperate with Huawei in the field of industrial VR, but we need to clarify the cooperation method."
After Li Miaomiao set the tone, the senior executives below expressed their opinions one after another.
"If the technology license is only granted to Huawei, then we can focus on the industrial VR field by establishing a joint venture."
If you're not only licensing the patent to Huawei, but also to other companies, then I suggest adopting a patent fee model.
"Regardless of which of you wants to develop industrial VR, we will grant you patent licenses; the specific pricing method will need to be discussed separately."
Setting up a joint venture will be quite complicated.
Moreover, granting the technology only to Huawei involves a technology monopoly.
"I think that even if we don't just authorize flowers, we should also establish a company."
We could easily establish a separate subsidiary focused on the industrial VR field, and then form a joint venture with the subsidiary and partners, adopting a triple structure.
This not only allows for deeper involvement in the development of industrial VR, but more importantly, it enables data sharing.
We need data; the data used in industrial VR is highly valuable, so I believe we shouldn't just be technology providers in this field.
In recent years, with the rise of big data, companies have become increasingly aware of the importance of data.
The reason Mazda chose to collaborate with SecondMind, which was mentioned a long time ago, is because of SecondMind's accumulated data in the field of engine tuning.
“I also agree with Mr. Chen’s statement. This is a good opportunity to get involved in the manufacturing industry. All we need is data to empower enterprises.”
After the news breaks, not only Huawei, but also Alibaba, ByteDance, and Tencent will be quick to react, allowing us to obtain the most data.
Is manufacturing data valuable? Obviously, everyone knows it is.
