When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Deep city.

When Xu Jun saw that Galaxy Technology had actually brought out the HarmonyOS system, he did not hesitate and immediately reported the situation to headquarters.

Xu Jun's position in the chrysanthemum factory was also among the top.

Therefore, upon receiving Xu Jun's message, Chrysanthemum headquarters immediately convened a meeting of senior executives.

"The specific situation is as follows: Galaxy Technology has developed the HarmonyOS system, which is based on a microkernel approach and completely avoids the patents of Android, Windows, and iOS systems."

"In addition, Galaxy Technology has chosen to focus its breakthrough efforts on its white smart home appliances."

"By using AI and the Internet of Everything, we can use the HarmonyOS system as a platform to achieve intelligent interconnection."

"Now, everyone, what do you all think we should do?"

None of the executives spoke; they all looked on incredulously.

Even now, they still find it hard to believe the news.

They know very well the progress of the HarmonyOS development.

When they sold it to Galaxy Technology, they had discussed it many times.

Only after confirming that there would be no problems or hidden dangers did they decide to sell it to Galaxy Technology.

There were two reasons at the time.

One possibility is that the international situation won't be that bad, and another is that it would be too difficult for Galaxy Technology to develop the HarmonyOS system.

But who could have imagined that so little time would pass before Galaxy Technology launched the HarmonyOS system?

When the source code of the HarmonyOS system appeared on Galaxy Technology's official website, countless people at home and abroad downloaded and analyzed it immediately.

Analyzing the specific source code will take time, but that's just a technical matter.

But for these businessmen, what they are more concerned about is the impact that the emergence of the HarmonyOS system will have on them.

Just like the chrysanthemum factory right now.

After a long while, one of the executives finally spoke up and said, "I think we must restart the development of the operating system."

"If Galaxy Technology can do it, then we certainly can too!"

However, no sooner had the executive finished speaking than Yu Dazui sneered and said, "Everyone knows how much money and how many people have been invested in the HarmonyOS system."

“We sold the entire team to Galaxy Technology. Now we’re restarting R&D, and how long will it take to get it back to success? Have you thought about that?”

"Furthermore, even if we succeed in developing it, how will we solve the issues of the ecosystem and users?"

"I think the most important thing for us right now is to determine the technology of the HarmonyOS system and whether it is completely domestically produced."

"Secondly, we need to consider what conditions we should offer."

After Yu Dazui finished speaking, Meng Zhou, who was wearing red, immediately turned pale.

The decision to sell the HarmonyOS system and the entire team was made by her.

If Galaxy Technology hadn't succeeded in developing it, this decision would have been quite wise.

You could also praise her for her decisive decision-making, which shows the spirit of a female hero.

But now it has become a big joke.

"Our smartphone shipments are currently among the top tier in China, and the promotion and popularization of the HarmonyOS system will inevitably rely on our support."

"So we can definitely use this to set a high price."

"We have contributed to the development of the HarmonyOS system. Could we take this opportunity to discuss cooperation with Galaxy Technology and ask for a share of the company?"

“We could even try to propose investing in Galaxy Technology, and we could also contribute more money to provide more assistance in promoting the HarmonyOS system.”

At this moment, a senior executive suddenly said the following.

The entire conference room immediately fell silent.

I must say, this proposal is incredibly appealing.

The successful development of the HarmonyOS system is a fact, and it is almost impossible for them to catch up.

In this situation, this is the only way to maximize profits.

By owning a stake in the HarmonyOS system, they can boldly promote and popularize it.

If they were to invest in Galaxy Technology, they would truly be making money without lifting a finger.

As Mr. Ren listened to the executives' opinions, a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

"This matter cannot be rushed. We need to coordinate with brands like Xiaomi and OPPO/Vivo. We are all in this together, so it's natural to unite at this time."

"As for the conditions, we can discuss them slowly, little by little."

"Since Xu Jun is in Beijing and there's a gathering tonight, we can take this opportunity to have a good talk with Galaxy Technology and gauge their opinion."

As the founder of Chrysanthemum, Mr. Ren made the decision, and many senior executives had no choice but to back down.

The executive meeting that took place at the Chrysanthemum company also took place at OV's headquarters.

As if by unspoken agreement, they both made similar decisions.

Ever since.

This made the gala in Beijing particularly attractive.

……

Prefect of Jingzhao.

Lei Jun, Wang Donglai, Xu Jun, Zhou Hongyi, Zhang Yang and many other big names came forward together.

The combined wealth of these individuals exceeds several trillion.

It's easy to imagine how large the event was.

Among these people, Wang Donglai remains the undisputed core.

Because it wasn't a formal occasion, everyone was very relaxed.

"Mr. Wang, this is the first time we've sat down together privately. Shall we arrange some other projects?"

Zhou Hongyi took the initiative to approach Wang Donglai, a knowing smile on her face, and said to him.

Hearing Zhou Hongyi say this, Lei Busi and the others also stopped and waited for Wang Donglai's reply.

"No need, everyone's here for the show, let's get down to business first!"

Wang Donglai directly waved his hand and rejected Zhou Hongyi's suggestion.

Zhou Hongyi showed no embarrassment at being rejected. Instead, she smiled and said, "President Wang is indeed a man of great things. No wonder you have achieved such success."

To be honest, Wang Donglai looked down on Zhou Hongyi, this veteran of the internet industry.

If you are familiar with the development of China's internet industry, you will know that Zhou Hongyi's rise to power has never been clean.

Furthermore, even in the later stages, many of Zhou Hongyi's methods were not very effective.

Lacks vision!

What a despicable person!
This is Wang Donglai's assessment of Zhou Hongyi in his mind.

soon.

Everyone sat down around a huge dining table.

"Mr. Wang, your company's development of the HarmonyOS system is truly astonishing!"

Before they had exchanged more than a few words, Xu Jun steered the conversation directly to the HarmonyOS system.

"Yes, with AI connecting everything, smart white goods are a brilliant move. It seems that Galaxy Technology has had this idea for a long time!"

Upon hearing this, a confident smile appeared on Wang Donglai's face.

Instead of speaking immediately, he looked around at everyone.

"Actually, I already said that at the booth this morning."

"HarmonyOS is a completely independent operating system. As for its importance, I will not repeat it here."

"The purpose of attending this gala today is actually quite simple." "Everyone here represents a leading company in the domestic internet sector, an elite of the business world."

"Therefore, I don't want to go around in circles with you all."

"For an operating system to develop, it must solve two major problems: users and ecosystem."

"These two challenges are also interdependent. A rich ecosystem is necessary to attract users; without a sufficient ecosystem, users will simply leave."

"I hope that you can develop a HarmonyOS version of the software."

"I can promise that there will be no revenue sharing for two years, and the HarmonyOS Super Terminal SDK will be open to brands such as new energy battery companies, which can also obtain free licenses."

After Wang Dong finished speaking, he waited quietly for everyone's reaction.

Everyone seemed somewhat surprised by Wang Donglai's directness.

Zhou Hongyi was the first to react, and said with a smile, "We didn't have a choice before, but now that we have our own domestic operating system, we must support it."

"After the dinner, I'll have the company develop a HarmonyOS version of the software tomorrow."

"We guarantee that it will be among the first batch of apps to be listed on the HarmonyOS App Store."

Everyone was somewhat surprised, wondering what Zhou Hongyi meant by being so proactive.

However, everyone knew Zhou Hongyi well and knew that she wouldn't do something without a reason, so there must be some benefit to her doing this.

At that moment, Lei Jun also spoke.

"Mr. Wang, since it's an operating system, I think there must be a lot of room for cooperation between us."

"I wonder if Mr. Wang has any thoughts on this?"

Upon hearing Lei Jun ask the question first, Xu Jun immediately perked up and turned his attention to Wang Donglai, waiting for his answer.

"To be honest, I haven't thought about that either."

"The Android system has been used for so many years that not only consumers are used to it, but manufacturers are also used to it."

"It would be too difficult to ask them to make changes now."

"If something goes wrong, it could even affect market share."

"Logically, I should offer a high price and give a subsidy for every smartphone with HarmonyOS that is sold."

"Spending money is always the best way to expand the market."

"However, I don't want to do that, not only because spending money to buy the market doesn't align with my philosophy, but also because I don't think it will be very effective."

"My purpose in developing the HarmonyOS system is not for anything else, but to fill our gaps and reduce our vulnerability."

"So, after much thought, I decided to unite domestic mobile phone brands to form a Chinese mobile phone alliance."

"As for the app store's commission, it will be free for the first two years, and then 10% every year until it reaches 30%."

"This 30% split will continue indefinitely."

"This is my sincerity!"

When Wang Donglai said these words, his tone was calm, but it contained an extremely obvious confidence.

Upon hearing Wang Donglai's words, everyone's expression changed slightly.

Because Wang Donglai acted too confidently, as if they were the ones who wanted to cooperate.

Lei Jun did not reply.

To be honest, Lei Jun (CEO of Xiaomi) didn't really want the HarmonyOS system to be developed.

Currently, Galaxy Technology's white goods and smart home appliance business has had a significant impact on Xmi's business.

If AI-powered Internet of Things technology becomes widespread, Xiaomi might really lose much of its market share.

From this perspective, Galaxy Technology and Xiaomi are complete competitors.

However, Lei Jun also holds some shares in Galaxy Technology.

Therefore, he also hopes that Galaxy Technology can develop better.

However, Lei Jun quickly made a decision regarding his stake in Xiaomi and Galaxy Technology.

"I need to go back and discuss this with the shareholders before I can give a definite answer!"

Upon hearing Lei Jun's words, Wang Donglai immediately understood Lei Jun's choice.

At this moment, Xu Jun also spoke up, saying, "President Wang, President Ren must be overjoyed to hear the news of the successful development of the HarmonyOS system. From this perspective, I think we have a lot to talk about regarding cooperation."

Wang Donglai nodded slightly and said, "Then I will wait for good news."

The dinner party cooled down a bit at this point.

However, since everyone present was a businessman, they quickly warmed up the atmosphere again.

Wang Donglai was also constantly being introduced to people.

The founders of Wei Xiaoli and the other two companies all took the initiative to toast Wang Donglai and show their goodwill.

Although the three men were much older than Wang Donglai, their statuses were completely different.

In terms of social status, Wang Donglai is an academician and enjoys ministerial-level treatment.

They are just businessmen, with the better ones holding multiple identities.

In terms of financial resources, even if the three of them were combined, they still couldn't compare to Wang Donglai; it would be several times more.

Only when comparing ages can he surpass Wang Donglai.

The three of them were extremely sincere and enthusiastic in front of Wang Donglai.

Furthermore, all three of them patted their chests and guaranteed that they would install the HarmonyOS system in their cars after returning.

Wang Donglai did not refuse the three people's kindness.

He also understood why the three of them did that.

They simply want to obtain a supply of high-performance batteries from Galaxy Technologies.

New energy vehicles, also known as electric vehicles.

The most important part is the three-electric system.

Battery, motor, electronic control.

Without a good battery, a vehicle's range will be greatly affected.

This is precisely what many customers are worried about.

Therefore, major car manufacturers are investing heavily in battery research and development.

But who would have thought that Galaxy Technology would actually develop a semi-solid-state battery, directly extending the range of new energy vehicles to over 1,000 kilometers?

This puts manufacturers using other battery technologies in a difficult position.

In terms of battery life, they are less than half as good.

It's self-evident how consumers will choose.

Obtaining a supply of semi-solid-state batteries is also a difficult task.

It's not that Galaxy Technology isn't selling, but rather that the production of semi-solid-state batteries is completely insufficient, and demand exceeds supply.

BYD's new energy vehicle business has developed extremely rapidly in the past two years due to its cooperation with Galaxy Technology.

This has made countless manufacturers envious and jealous.

However, without semi-solid-state batteries, they can only watch helplessly.

Now that such a good opportunity had presented itself, the three of them immediately seized it.

Making over in advance is just to secure a sliver of an opportunity.

The dinner party didn't last very long before it ended.

Apart from a very few people who were satisfied, most others were not very satisfied.

Because they didn't get what they wanted. (End of Chapter)
