This delay left Mitsui Tousaburo with a feeling of emptiness in his heart.
Xing Baohua is indeed busy. He has to keep an eye on the telecommunications company and also check on the software park from time to time.
The main task at the software park is to port the Windows software based on the Java supplement proposed by Xing Baohua.
Of course, some things require copyright, and Xing Baohua actively contacted those software companies to purchase the right to use them.
Initially, Xing Baohua wanted to create a free application. However, since it wasn't well-known, it wouldn't attract software companies.
Once people are used to using it and find it convenient, then we can introduce the concept of charging. At that time, we will negotiate revenue sharing or outright sale with software vendors.
Currently, it can only be included for free on the released tablets and the upcoming digital devices.
How can we call it the intelligent era if it doesn't have a dozen or so software programs supporting it?
Xing Baohua didn't dare to fully embrace the intelligent era; in order to keep up with the progress, he had to learn from Nokia's S40, which was touted as semi-intelligent.
The Symbian system was originally divided into S40, S60, S80 and S90 systems.
The most common ones are S40 and S60.
Strictly speaking, the S40 is not an intelligent system. But they claim it's a semi-intelligent system, just to make it look good and fool those who don't understand.
After all, this group represents a huge consumer base.
S60 can be called an intelligent system because it not only supports various application software, but also allows users to modify the operating system itself, adding many special and interesting features.
That's why it can become an intelligent system.
When Xing Baohua communicated with the software team, he clearly pointed out that the equipment came with more than a dozen application software programs.
This is to allow users to use these software programs smoothly when they don't have a computer, thereby improving the entertainment and work capabilities of these devices.
We will later create an app store on our official website for customers to download and use.
This greatly enhances the playability of mobile devices.
Xing Baohua still wants to acquire third-party application software by purchasing usage rights or by porting it over.
Regardless of whether the software is good or bad, first fill the app store with subpar content.
Whether it's good or not, you'll only know after downloading and using it. If it's not good, just uninstall it; it has nothing to do with the store or your device.
When software is used extensively or downloaded in large numbers, it will attract the attention of legitimate third-party software vendors.
At that time, the software was very small, and one person could easily set it up with a little time.
When building the app store, Xing Baohua instructed his staff to create a system to rate software based on positive and negative reviews, as well as user numbers and download counts.
App Store (third-party software application store)
Due to the limitations of wireless network connectivity, Xing Baohua is temporarily setting up this store on the official website of each continent.
This makes it easier for them to download and use the software.
When Chinese people pronounce "app" as a shorthand, they often use these three letters. However, it's not actually an abbreviation of an English word.
Its full name is appli, which is abbreviated by taking only the first three letters.
"App" is actually just an IT term that has been used among programmers for a long time. Later, it was "used" by Big Fruit, or rather, it was reflected in their system.
Add a picture to the App Store, and anyone who understands English will immediately recognize it as an app store. Clicking on it will bring up a variety of apps available for download.
That's why these terms became popular. The word "app" is followed by a period. So when you download something, if you see the "app" suffix, you can download it.
Whether it's Windows or other operating systems, the suffixes after "Windows" all have their own names.
Microsoft operating systems generally use the .exe extension for their filenames.
The Symbian S40 system uses SISS, while the S60 system uses SISX. S60 applications are compatible with S40 software.
Android software uses the apk format.
When downloading software, look at the formatting details to see if it's suitable for your system.
Many beginners are unable to install the software after downloading it because the downloaded file format is incorrect.
Regardless of the system or format, it can all be called an app.
The abbreviation for "app" only came into use after Android was released.
I didn't understand English before, so how would I know these things! I didn't even know the name of the software I downloaded.
Xing Baohua wanted to unify things so that it would be convenient, simple, and wouldn't cause chaos.
Setting up a store is actually a good idea, like learning from Da Guozi (a popular Chinese electronics retailer). The current equipment isn't suitable for China; the focus is on overseas markets where you have to pay for everything. Besides, they've already gotten used to paying for things.
If you offer them something for free, they probably won't be used to it.
The system will be made freely available; any manufacturer can use it, and free guidance will be provided. This will bind several manufacturers together, but there is one condition: they must include Dami Technology's factory software.
Don't delete it if you don't like it later; what's the point of playing the clean version then?
Users have a poor experience with the system. They get the phone or tablet, but there's not much to do, and downloading is a huge hassle. Who can they complain to?
Regardless of the manufacturer of the mobile devices, as long as they use a runnable Java program, it will greatly benefit the app store on the management network.
After all, the profits generated from store fees are much better than collecting system patent fees.
If you charge those manufacturers patent fees, they'll immediately start building their own app stores.
There's nothing you can do if someone buys the copyright to some software and plays with a free version.
Therefore, when transferring the system, conditions must be stipulated in the contract that all their machines come with an app store that can be linked to the address when they leave the factory, which will play a key role when the conditions are right and the network can be connected.
