return to bolang life

Chapter 257
It was the first time that Wen Liang realized that the Bo Lang he led was already so awesome!

In this era, in this environment, in this era where there are many players fighting each other, the current Bolang can kill randomly.

Because, there is Xiaochengshu, a Chinese social media platform with a lot of revenue, which has transitioned from PC to mobile, and Bo Lang, who is still the leader in the mobile game market, looks around and finds that he can just draw his sword and just fight!

Simply put, all public opinion in later generations tells the public that Android in overseas markets cannot do without Google's GMS.

An Android phone without GMS can't move an inch.

Generally, everyone here will no longer pay attention to the following.

So what is indispensable for overseas users in GMS in overseas markets?
It is a commonly used app in several overseas markets, it is Google's unified message push service, it is a Google account, etc.

Here comes the question, what about people who use Apple?
The answer is:
iOS has its own unified message push service and its own iCloud account. As for those commonly used apps, such as YouTube under Google, they all have an iOS version!
Android in the domestic market has no GMS, no YouTube, no need for an account, and no unified message push service.

Still very happy with it.

Star system has a high-quality unified message push service that has been repeatedly mentioned by enthusiasts, and it is something that other Android phones in the domestic market do not have!
In addition, the Stars system also has cloud services. After all, even the Stars Forum provides cloud backups for flashing users.

These alone are not enough. After all, the star system is an independent new system, and there is no application ecology by nature.

So it involves the types of apps that are indispensable in the domestic market.

So who is the most indispensable national app?

The answer is - Little Orange Book!

Xiaochengshu now has 4.1 million users, and is the number one brother in domestic public social networking and mobile communication social networking. Weibo and WeChat please stand back!

As for QQ, the millions of users who used the star system did not seem to feel unaccustomed to the days without QQ.

Wen Liang once again felt that 'user habits' is a very interesting word.

In 2022, the indispensable app in the domestic market is WeChat.

Another app that people find it hard not to use is Douyin.

Nowadays, in front of Xiaocheng's writing, WeChat is only suitable for stepping back a little.

Zitiao, which may be used in Douyin in the future, is eagerly waiting for Mr. Wen to agree to Toutiao's landing on the [Massive Value] platform to shine.

Some of those apps that were later ranked slightly lower and used frequently have not yet appeared.

The mobile games with the largest number of players are all produced by Bolang.

The Tianmei studio integrated by White Goose can only eat a small amount of meat under the combination of Bolang boutique and assembly line development.

In this era, user habits on the mobile side are being dominated by Bolang.

In short, one of the two core systems of smartphones, apart from Apple in the application ecology, Google Android is still brewing to attack all parties.

Star system has quietly soaked in the user habits of the domestic market, occupying a share.

On another core processing chip, the main revenue source of ARM, which focuses on low-power architectures, is MCUs, not SoCs, among which Cortex-M0/M3 is more well-known.

When learning about the ins and outs of SoC tapeouts just now, Wen Liang also learned that when Bolang purchased the Armv8 license, ARM was a little bit "overjoyed".

Because the v8 plan launched by ARM is for 2013, and no one cares about it for the time being, Bolang is the first manufacturer to explicitly purchase v8 authorization.

If Wen Liang knew enough about the global mobile market in 2012, he would know that before the fourth quarter of 2012, the market was not optimistic about ARM.

The reason is that no manufacturer fully supports ARM's IP core!
From the beginning of the A4 chip, Apple has only developed its own architecture series chips based on the ARM instruction set, and the GPU has acquired the manufacturer's self-developed design early on.

Nvidia doesn't say much, it's done by itself.

Qualcomm is also a twitchy development.

Earlier, Qualcomm acquired the Adreno series of GPUs from AMD and now uses them for itself.

In terms of CPU, Qualcomm is jumping left and right in whether to change the Arm architecture.

In such a chaotic and divided situation, Bolang develops self-developed mobile phone SoC, and the two major components, CPU and GPU, have sufficient opportunities.

It should be noted that although the GPU also has an instruction set, it does not require market adaptation.

Any GPU chip manufacturer uses its own instruction set, so it doesn't matter if it's early or late.

In terms of CPU research and development, the reason why Qin Zheng started over and over again is not that he failed to design a good instruction set. The horizontal comparison of Armv8 and RISC-V is also okay, and then he used a wave of exhaustive methods, which feels almost meaningless.

The degree of simplicity is not enough, and the power consumption performance is not good enough.

Therefore, Qin Zheng, who was favored by everyone, fell into hard thinking, but before leaving Yangcheng, he told Wen Liang that he was very confident that he would raise the banner after returning from his visit.

It must be noted that the instruction set of the CPU needs to be adapted to the market, from the operating system to the whole series of application software. (This is also the reason why it has been difficult for Loongson to enter the open market. The developed loongarch has to actively translate and execute X86 and Arm architecture applications.)
Therefore, it is very difficult to develop a SoC with a self-developed CPU instruction set architecture from scratch.

Generally speaking, it is not difficult to make it, but it is too difficult to develop an ecology, because it needs to be widely recognized by the market.

Coincidentally, the star system that has confused the domestic Android UI market is developed by Bolang, and the adaptation of the operating system is not a problem~
The broadest application software market fit remains.

In this regard, the national social app Xiaochengshu belongs to Bolang.

Online shopping Bolang has a hot mall.

The mobile game Bolang is produced by Guofeng Studio.

Of course, there are still many things missing.

However, Bolang, a new player, has begun to accumulate advantages step by step.

But at the same time, Bolang's development has entered the most difficult stage, even in October last year.

Because Bolang has already quietly challenged the rules.

Because Bolang not only has to make full efforts to reserve technology infinitely, but also must be able to firmly grasp the market trend.

Fortunately, the technology accumulation in the core field is still relatively 'simple', because there are no real new inventions, but an independent, safe and reliable system from scratch.

……

A thought flashed through Wen Liang's mind.

He picked up the teapot to boil water to make tea, drank two cups in a row, calmed down, and then began to sort out his thoughts.

First of all, there will be no major publicity moves on the Star system in the near future.

Continue to grow steadily.

Let the various teams of the system development department improve and optimize various details based on the more and more extensive coverage of the measured groups.

Waiting for the right time, launch the IDE that adapts to the star system, officially endorsed in the name of Bolang, and pass the turning point.

Secondly, due to the needs of Bolang's Internet business ecology construction and pan-entertainment ecology, Wen Liang plans to go to the capital to solve a package of things.

And this has a high degree of correlation with the market application ecology, so a more comprehensive investment plan is needed.

Finally, due to the consideration of multi-angle technical reserves, it is necessary to establish a new large cooperation framework from now on.

In the end, there are money, people, and so on.

…………

After clearing his mind, Wen Liang went to Wang Wanyu's office.

Seeing Wen Liang coming in, Wang Wanyu's eyelids twitched, she looked at Wen Liang, and choked out a sentence for a while: "Boss Wen is really a rare visitor."

Since she joined Bolang, Wen Liang walked into her office for the first time.

Whether it was the previous silver gray building office, or here.

Wen Liang went to sit across from Wang Wanyu's desk, and said with a smile, "Boss Wang is right to criticize."

Instead, he asked with concern: "Did you have a good time in the South Pacific during your vacation?"

Wang Wanyu just returned to Yangcheng before noon today.

"It's okay, it's rare to go out with your little uncle to enjoy the sea breeze and enjoy the sun." Wang Wanyu smiled, "Thank you and Xiaojian for helping us take care of our children."

Wen Liang laughed for a while, then suddenly mentioned angrily: "I have to give way to the discipline, and I forget my mother every now and then when I have Su Jian!"

"I forgot about you." Wang Wanyu directly pointed it out, "However, why do you always like to be jealous of your daughter-in-law?"

Hearing this, Wen Liang casually said, "Maybe you like Su Jian a little bit?"

"I don't understand the things about you young people." Then Wang Wanyu said meaningfully, "However, when you are young, it is easy to lose your eyes. When you pass by, don't forget that the lamp left for you at home is the most real and precious. .”

Wen Liang readily accepted, agreeing: "Yes, in the end, the ordinary is the most precious."

Wang Wanyu didn't say any more, she just mentioned one thing.

Naturally, there are many messy things she knows.

There are small leaders who are not too big who play very well, and everyone knows it.

After all, Wang Wanyu has her natal sister, the little leader of the system, Wang Wanhua, and her husband's family is also a member of the system.

She is someone who has experienced it, so she has heard more things than Wen Liang.

After chatting for a while, Wang Wanyu put her hands on the table and asked softly, "Is there something more difficult?"

Hearing this, Wen Liangwei smiled first: "Yes, but it's more difficult for Mr. Wang. Mr. Wang needs to coordinate with various departments to give a detailed Internet business investment plan before noon on the 10th."

"Including but not limited to how to improve the company's pan-entertainment planning, business ecological development planning, etc."

Wang Wanyu couldn't help nodding, and then asked, "Is there any direction?"

"It needs to be closely related to the ecological construction of the company's mobile phone business." Wen Liang replied, "The smooth development of the mobile phone business is beyond expectations, and we need to hurry up to complete the layout so that we can have enough energy to deal with the extraordinary crisis."

Wang Wanyu nodded: "Understood."

…………

For the next day or so, Wen Liang was free, and went to school to check in if he had nothing to do.

On Wednesday morning, I finished all the classes that should be taken this week.

In the afternoon, Wen Liang and Li Xia boarded a large plane from Yangcheng to Beijing, this time on the A380 of China Southern Airlines.

Really big.

The ride experience is really good.

And as early as in the morning, a large team of Bolang had already arrived in the capital by plane in batches.

Among them is Wan'an.

Including a six-member team led by Yuan Shiya from the human resources department.

Including a six-person team in the corporate development department.

Including the five-member team led by Lin Hong from the Ministry of Justice.

Including a five-member team from the Ministry of Finance and Economics.

There are some people in other departments including the corporate strategy department.

Although the plane is very safe, in order to avoid the risk of that event, it is a common option for people of the same company to fly in batches.

In short, it was Wen Liang's second business trip to the capital, and he brought a mobile office team with him.

Including Wen Liang himself, there were 31 people in total.

It can be said to be mighty.

As soon as the plane landed and was connected to the bridge, the flight attendant invited Wen Liang down first, walked out of the plane from the first cabin door, turned directly off the bridge, and then got into a Rolls-Royce.

Shen Nanpeng was already sitting in the car.

Shen Nanpeng greeted with a smile: "Mr. Wen has worked hard all the way."

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen." Wen Liang also greeted with a smile.

Shen Nanpeng waved his hands again and again, and said, "I hope Mr. Wen will give us hosts a chance to entertain us."

Wen Liang didn't refuse, and said with a smile: "Haha, it's better to obey than to be respectful."

Arriving in the capital, Wen Liang's queue for this trip was immediately full.
