Reboot 2003

Chapter 234 013: Congratulations (three-in-one)

"Okay, okay, thank you Teacher Li for telling everyone this. Please sit down."

The business people seemed to be very interested. Of course, this on-the-spot 'lecture' ended here. As a class reunion, it is not suitable for someone to stand up and promote their own products. However, this is not an ordinary class reunion after all. If you are in a hurry, MBA After several months of courses, many of them were taught by correspondence and had never met in class. They gathered together specially for a class reunion. Isn't that what they wanted.

However, although they were quite interested, after Li Nanguang finished speaking, everyone showed some interest, but the discussion did not continue.

There was a brief silence at the dinner table, so that after Li Nanguang sat down, he hurriedly added, saying that this was completely voluntary and there were no conditions. He also said that this project was seeking national support and that everyone would use this system in the future. Maybe there will be subsidies or something...

Of course he was a little confused.

Is it because the conditions for open source seem so good that everyone still doesn’t want to believe it?Or is there confusion between 'Kaitian' and 'mLinux', a mature trademark?

While Chen Qin was eating meat, he was muttering to himself - of course, he had known what Li Nanguang said for a long time, but it should be a recent thing that this system was called 'Open Sky'.

He hasn't had time to ask about this matter, and it's not necessary in the first place. After all, in the eyes of ordinary users and outsiders, what a project can see is its final result, and its development process is very similar to the project from the beginning. The same thing that grows out of the trademark.

This understanding actually makes sense. After all, trademarks have different effects for different businesses——

Specifically, most business models have to face the problem of who the product should be provided to. If it is provided to the government, it is the ToG model, if it is provided to other businessmen, it is the ToB model, and if it is provided to end users, it is the ToC model. Among the three models, the trademark The value increases sequentially.

If the operating system of the smart device is ToB, then its trademark should not be important, and there is no need to open another brand with the same positioning.

But for smartphones, the importance of software is already very high, so in the future, the platform will actually become a ToC product.

The key to this transformation is actually what Li Nanguang and those developers have been doing recently.

Recently, the development goal of mLinux is mainly to support the Java ecosystem. This is determined by Chen Qin himself - from the perspective of future people, the reason why Android can succeed is that it can be a covert Linux is certainly not the key. The key thing is that all software will be actively put on Android to form a real ecosystem. This is the reason why it can defeat so many competitors. But when it comes to ecosystem, the ecosystem of Linux is actually still on the PC platform, even if it can gain some popularity , compared with the real boss Win platform, it can only be said to be a bit ridiculous.

So on the one hand, we need to open source, which is a relatively low-cost way to create an ecosystem. Trademarks are one of the few truly valuable things in this project.

On the other hand, it is necessary to support the existing mobile phone software ecosystem, and the answer to this problem is Java.

Java is a cross-platform language by nature. Although it has some shortcomings, big and small, it is indeed the choice of today's era. Not only are there already a lot of Java software and games for mobile phones on the market, but smartphones that do not support Java are inherently It is just unqualified, and Java is not yet popular. Programmers’ salaries are very cheap, and it is also convenient for other commercial organizations to participate in ecological development.

So after the initial development was completed, after Li Nanguang took over the mLinux company, he was making the Java virtual machine capable of supporting most existing .java programs.

Thanks to the fact that Sun just released OpenJDK this year and directly open sourced JAVA (it was originally free), it also released the development components of OpenJDK.

Using these ready-made tools, mLinux embraced Java for the first time, which was a natural choice for the reborn, but now Android and Apple have not caught up, and this is another story - the HTML5 standard is still under discussion. , it will allow web pages to realize many functions that could not be realized in the past. No one knows how powerful it will be in the future. At this time, there is a corollary called web omnipotence theory.

That is to say, in the future, all programs, software, services, and applications can be explained by web standards. By then, there will be no software, and everything will be executed on the web page.

Google is the main supporter of HTML5 and naturally supports the 'web omnipotence theory'. Apple seems to also advocate this theory.The iPhone 1 released this year looks like this - to ordinary people who have been bombarded by various media, the release of iPhone 1 seems to be an earth-shattering historical event. When talking about Apple's release, it is of course the so-called 'opening of the smartphone era' Grand narratives such as "A new chapter for mobile phones".

But in fact, there are many confusing designs of iPhone 1. For example, Steve Jobs believed Nokia’s lies. iPhone 1 was specially made to be very durable, and its shell is made of alloy. The original intention of restarting Corning Gorilla Glass through connections was also because it is fighter glass and has high hardness. High enough. In addition, it does not support 3G. Of course, these issues are not the most important issue. Relatively speaking, the most important issue today is that iPhone 1 is not a smartphone in the narrow sense at all.

Apple has iTunes, and its app store was originally an improvement from iTunes, so technically it is not difficult for them to develop more or less third-party application frameworks. The reason why they don't do this is because 'the web is omnipotent'. On the other hand, they want to rely on the browser to become a smartphone.

After the success of the Galaxy phone this time, Apple and Google will naturally not be completely unresponsive. They probably saw the precedent of two web services, Facebook and Twitter, being directly launched on the mobile OS and becoming a great success. This year, Apple’s mobile phone design is similar to Chen Qin’s. There have been considerable changes in my memory. For example, their iPhone 1 supports 3G. For example, they claim to provide customized browsers for third-party Internet service providers, but they still do not have an app store. Even Google originally used compatibility as its The main selling point of the product can't be found. They are currently working on Chrome, and they see that someone is half a step ahead of them in the browser field. Now the entire company is like a fighting chicken, obsessed with customizing the browser...

In this regard, Chen Qin could only say that he did not do it on purpose.

At the beginning, he wanted to build a self-developed OS with US$[-] million. The money was actually more than enough, but when it came to research and development, many problems could not be solved with money. He also wanted to directly build a Java virtual machine, but this was not a lack of strength.

Now I see that both sides seem to have been led into the ditch by him... In fact, it is not a bad thing. Even if Google is not an enemy in terms of commercial interests, it is not yet a teammate.

So he asked mLinux to make the project independent. Research and development cannot be stopped, and promotion cannot be stopped. However, renaming it will have the effect of confusing opponents to some extent.

As for the name, it was previously left up to Li Nanguang and their developers to decide, and Chen Qin hadn't asked yet.

Now it's called 'Kaitian OS'... Did some leader give it the name?never mind.

Open the sky and open the sky. Speaking of which, Mr. Li has actually done a very good job. Nowadays, people who copy open source projects in China are very popular - for example, he is one of them. But doing open source by yourself is really disgusting. Chen Qin Doing open source is just to make money. In fact, I am not happy to do such a big project myself, so I went to trick Google to do it together.

But what if Mr. Li and the others really succeed?

This thought flashed through his mind, but Chen Qin shook his head. After all, the software did not really grow from the trademark. To do this would require a lot of manpower to maintain it in the future, which was still too troublesome.

But Lei Jun...

Turning around and taking a look, Lei Jun was sitting next to Professor Li Nanguang according to the order of merit. The two of them were very close to each other.

He seemed to be really interested in this. While talking to Mr. Li, Chen Qin looked at him a little bit.

No wonder there was no response when I hinted him to go into the sea to work on his mobile phone.

I remember that when Kingsoft was about to go bankrupt, it was Lenovo that invested the money, and Lenovo seems to be Kingsoft’s major shareholder now.

Although Kingsoft is now listed, the relationship is probably still there. These industrial people are trying to get into the Internet circle. The cooperation between Galaxy and Kingsoft is actually completely a cooperation with Lei Jun.

I hadn’t thought about it carefully before, but it turned out to be like this...

Thinking of the exchange of glances between Lei Jun and his boss, Liu Chengzhi, who was like a godfather, Chen Qin felt that he vaguely understood something. Looking at Lei Jun, he also felt that he was dissatisfied on both sides, and even the Dongpo meat in front of him no longer tasted good.

Instead, he turned around and took a look.

"Why don't you eat it? Does it not suit your appetite?"

Chen Qin lost his appetite, and Ah Yue next to him also placed his chopsticks horizontally on the plate.

Ah Yue hummed, shook her head, and did not answer.

Chen Qin wanted to ask, but then thought about the day she was cutting a utility knife alone in the classroom. Although she was not the monitor at that time, it must have been when the news of the split first came out.

It was Gu Wenjie who originally talked about Sanyo Electric. Just now these people deliberately talked about this in front of her...

As Chen Qin thought about it, he felt more and more unappetizing.

At this moment, Ma Yun, who was at the head, also noticed her unusual expression.

"Hey, Ah Yue, no matter how much you eat or drink, we are all our own people here. Just treat this as your own home!"

Then Ah Yue imitated Li Nanguang and stood up like a student answering a question.

"Thank you, Uncle Ma, but you called me to come to Lin'an. Is there anything you need me to do? Since my father was injured at the beginning of this year, my family has been able to persist until now thanks to everyone's support. My family will always keep this kindness in mind. If my uncles and uncles if If there is anything you need me to do, please just ask.”

"Don't be nervous, Ah Yue." Liu Chengzhi, who was in charge, smiled and said, "We are all old classmates, there is nothing we need to do together. We are also very sad that something like this happened to Lao Gu. We invite you here this time, just for the sake of It’s just a testimony. In the afternoon, our old classmates will do a fundraiser together. The money is not much, but it is also a heartfelt gesture."

Ah Yue bowed: "Thank you, Uncle Liu! Ah Yue will definitely keep everyone's kindness in mind!"

Another industrial boss said: "The other thing is that Lao Gu had an accident and is now hospitalized in Meilijian. I don't know how the treatment is going, but we have recently thought of some ways and hired a master who is very good in this field. The master is a very capable person. Although most people may not believe his methods, he has treated the president of Indonesia in the past. I just don’t know what my sister-in-law thinks..."

Ayue bowed again: "Thank you, Uncle Feng! I will tell my mother later."

"This time Wenjie was attacked, the real culprit is still at large. We are preparing to put pressure on Meilijian through the media..."

"If you encounter any problems in your family's life, you can just ask..."

Everyone spoke to each other and provided help to the families of old classmates who were in trouble, which made this profit center feel particularly warm. A Yue kept bowing and thanking: "Thank you, uncles and aunts! Is there anything you need A Yue to do? Ah Yue must go all out!"

Ma Yun's eyes were a little red: "Ah Yue, you kid, not to mention others, Uncle Ma, I watched you grow up! Don't be so outspoken now, I remember you didn't talk like this half a year ago... "

"That's right, Ah Yue, please sit down..." The rich and famous people all shed tears. A few uncles came over and patted Ah Yue's shoulders and asked her to sit down quickly. The atmosphere heightened the atmosphere, and Ah Yue's eyes were red with tears in her eyes. , but still stood still.

"We are not looking for you to do something now, we are providing help to your family!" Liu Chengzhi, who was at the top, said at the right time, "But Wenjie and we are just classmates after all, so that's all we can do. The main thing now is We don’t know what other difficulties your family has? Uncles and aunts are not outsiders. If your mother says you have any difficulties, and if you have any difficulties yourself, you can tell us."

Jiang Nanchun, who was at the bottom, also said seriously: "We may not always be able to help, but in short we will do our best. There is no question of forcing or not, so if you have any questions, just ask."

A Yue said with red eyes: "Thank you, uncles and aunts. Everything in my family is fine now, and so are my mother and I. Although my father has not been able to wake up, and my mother has been looking for doctors everywhere, I know this is destined by God. Thank you for your concern."

Everyone kept saying that Ji Ren has his own destiny, and Lao Gu must be fine.

However, A Yue then said: "I have seen my father working hard since I was a child. He has worked hard for so many years to get to where he is today. As a result, he is injured and comatose, and the company's stock has been falling, and it is even forced to be split. I think How disappointing it would be if he woke up now..."

Several old people sighed, and several emotional aunts and uncles took out their handkerchiefs and wiped their tears.

But they all remained helplessly silent, God's will was like this, what could people do.

What's more... isn't Gu Wenjie's shares good?The split of this company should be a normal business behavior to save the stock price. Does she want to oppose the split?

No matter what, most people can't do anything about this matter. Although we are businessmen, interfering in other people's business is another matter. And even Kuaikan Media is not Gu Wenjie's own company, and everyone can't do it to make him unconscious. Gu Wenjie, who is happy, harms the interests of other Kuaikan shareholders, so he is naturally helpless about this matter.

If there was anything I could do, it would be to help their business. But as the conversation progressed, everyone else became quiet and looked at the 'parties'.

Ma Yun said: "Wenjie worked with me in Alibaba back then, and his business was my business. I have always been paying attention to this matter."

A Yue nodded.

Ma Yun then took out a piece of paper: "Ah Yue, do you know what this is?"

A Yue shook her head.

Ma Yun said with a smile: "This is the IOU that your father pledged to me when he was doing business. He wanted to open a company, so I loaned him 50 on behalf of Ali."

The expressions of the others changed slightly, but Ma Yun passed the note over and asked others to hand it to A Yue. A Yue saw the debt deed written in black and white on it, as well as her father's autograph, but Ma Yun said: "Because At that time, registration of a company still required subscription, and after his company was established, he needed money in many places. I lent him money at that time and said that you just go ahead and start it. If you can't do it in the future, we will talk about it. In the end, Wenjie succeeded..."

"If converted into shares, the money would now be in the tens of millions. However, I made an agreement with Wenjie last year and the money was written off in one go."

Only then did the others suddenly realize and clapped their hands. A Yue quickly bowed and thanked her.

However, Ma Yun looked at her and said seriously: "But Ah Yue, what I want to tell you is that company management is a very complicated matter, and many things have no choice. Now look at the media. Many people Kuaikan Media, no one wants to see it go down, which is why we are in today's situation. As for you, you don't have to worry too much. At least Alibaba, as a shareholder of Kuaikan, we will work hard to make Kuaikan Media do well. "

Others claimed that it was, but Ma Yun continued: "Of course, I know that although these things happening now are rational, they are unreasonable. Look, it is indeed the culmination of Wenjie's hard work. Now break it down. This matter may indeed be unfair to Wenjie..."

He said and made a suggestion: "It just so happens that I am not only a shareholder of Kuaikan now, but also a major customer of Kuaikan. Many of Kuaikan's advertising orders now come from my Alibaba. In this split, We at Ali still have a certain say..."

As if he realized what he was about to say, another boss next to him also said: "I am in real estate, and my family also has a lot of business in Kuaikan Media..."

"I make cosmetics. By coincidence, my family also has a business in Kuaikan..."

"Okay, anyway, let's listen first and then talk." Ma Yun suggested, "Those of us originally have no objections to the split of Kuaikan, but if it is for Wenjie, we can make some suggestions... Now Kuaikan In fact, the restructuring plan has been generally determined, Galaxy will focus on the Internet cafe business, and Yahoo will focus on the gaming business."

"The rest is the advertising business. We can ask Kuaikan to set up a subsidiary, at least keep our advertising business in the hands of this subsidiary. This will have no impact on us, and it will have no impact on Kuaikan Media, but What do you think about keeping these businesses in Wenjie's hands?"

At the long table, many people nodded secretly, and some showed expressions of realization.

Only Ah Yue said: "What about other than these? What my father values ​​most is actually games. What should I do with those games?"

Ma Yun seemed a little surprised. He hesitated and said: "Kuaikan's game agency business is basically controlled by Yahoo. Even if it stays, I'm afraid there won't be any achievements."

Others also advised: "For Kuaikan, the most valuable thing is the advertising business."

A Yue tried to explain: "I'm not talking about agency..."

What else is there but an agent?At this time, someone reacted: "Yes, I remember that at the beginning of last year, Kuaikan was also developing a self-developed online game. It seemed that it was planning to call it 'Kuaiwan'. Now the 'Kuaikan' trademark has been taken away by Yahoo, but at least Keeping the trademark 'Kuaiwan' is probably a good thing for Lao Gu."

"Yes, yes, trademark is also very important, and this is something we can fight for."

Now A Yue had no objection, bowed and said thank you to uncle and aunt, Ma Yun asked her what do you think of this, A Yue said thank you to Uncle Ma, and then finally sat down...

At the long table at the class reunion, the adults all breathed a sigh of relief, saying that Ayue was a sensible and considerate father. Some people discussed specific methods, and at this point, they finally mentioned the specific plan for this cooperation——

"Everyone, be quiet for a moment. As we all know, Wenjie is still unconscious. It would be inconvenient for him to take up the position of this branch by himself, but it might be inconvenient if it is left to Wenjie's parents. After all, Wenjie seems to have a brother and sister who have nothing to do with Kuaikan..."

Someone else said: "Sister-in-law, it's still inconvenient after all. I think since this happened because of Ah Yue, Ah Yue should be responsible for it. When Wenjie wakes up in the future, he will see that his precious daughter can already It will definitely be gratifying to be on your own.”

At this time, someone asked: "Ah Yue is just in junior high school, is this okay?"

"Of course you can. Just this year, isn't there a new law that says minors can also hold positions in private companies?"

"What law?"

"It's just a judicial explanation or something, I can't remember clearly..."

After getting my approval, the bosses discussed it among themselves, and the matter seemed to have little to do with A Yue herself.

But when it comes to this most critical issue, we got stuck again. The people talking seemed to have forgotten a key piece of information. But at this moment, the little boy next to A Yue who had been silent before suddenly reminded him: " It is the "Reply on whether minors can become shareholders of a company" issued by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce in June this year."

"Ah yes, yes, this is it!"

The adults gave him a strange look, but then continued talking about business and soon stopped caring about him.

An hour passed like this, and this 'class reunion' was officially over...

Of course, it is not actually over. After all, the real class reunion is actually at night.

However, these people at noon are actually the main participants of this class reunion. The people participating in this 'class reunion' have their own plans, and their goals have almost been achieved.

So Ah Yue is going back, saying that she still has to go to school, which is different from what she said. After all, today is only Saturday, and tomorrow everyone will go to visit Kuaikan Company. This is also to support Kuaikan who is in trouble. It was an activity organized by the media, but A Yue changed her mind because of her companions, and the adults did not force her.

In this way, everything seemed to be exactly the same as when they came. After having a meal, the three of them returned to Lin'an Railway Station.

But...something seems different.

Just in front of the train station, the three of them went up the steps and heard shouts from behind.

"Wait a minute!"

Looking back, I saw that the BMW had just parked in the parking lot of the train station. The woman wearing sunglasses got out of the car and shouted from a distance: "Miss Gu, wait a minute!"

She shouted, waved her hands, and ran over in high heels. She looked a little funny. Ayue didn't know whether to answer or not, so she subconsciously hid behind her.

But the woman ran over with a smile on her face and handed a briefcase into A Yue's hand.

"Congratulations, Miss Gu!"

She excitedly said to A Yue: "We have started negotiations with Kuaikan Media in accordance with the request of Alibaba's President Ma. You can leave other matters to us, but you can take this thing first!"

Ah Yue opened the bag and looked at it. Inside were some messy documents and a simple official seal. "What's this?"

"These are some industrial and commercial documents. Although they are of no use at the moment, you have to keep them. With these, you will also be a chairman in the future!"
