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

"Comrades! This is not just a technological substitution, but a 'Liaoshen Campaign' of the digital age!"

“Some people may say that the HarmonyOS ecosystem is not perfect enough, but I don’t think it’s a big problem.”

“When we started the localization of high-speed rail in 2004, skeptics said, ‘The German ICE is unsurpassable!’”

“Back in 2012, when we were promoting the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System, sarcastic voices said, ‘GPS will never be outdated!’”

"Now, our high-speed rail mileage accounts for 70% of the world's total, and the positioning accuracy of BeiDou far surpasses that of GPS!"

"There is no savior or god-emperor in this world. The fate of Chinese science and technology must be in our own hands!"

“I have a bold idea: I plan to add a five-star shield logo to the HarmonyOS boot screen. This is the backbone of China, supported by 14 billion users.”

"April 20, 2018, the day the HarmonyOS system was successfully developed, I also believe that it was the day our country awakened to its digital sovereignty."

"The emergence of the HarmonyOS system will inevitably bring new challenges. I also have a declaration on this, which I hope will one day resound in Silicon Valley."

"The HarmonyOS system is not just a system; it is a prairie fire that burns away the shackles of data, and an Eastern declaration to rebuild digital civilization!"

"thank you all!"

After Wang Dong finished speaking, he bowed slightly to everyone.

Among everyone present, Wang Donglai was the youngest.

Everyone else has long passed the age of being passionate and enthusiastic.

Therefore, even in the face of Wang Donglai's inspiring speech, the crowd did not show much emotion.

They are more focused on how much of Wang Donglai's speech contains information that can improve their interests and bring development opportunities.

However, with Minister Jia and Chief Steward Zhao leading the applause, thunderous applause suddenly rang out in the conference room.

Wang Dong could see clearly that the applause was entirely out of respect for the two big shots.

Ah, ideals, beliefs...

Silently savoring the two words, Wang Donglai's expression remained unchanged.

At this moment, Minister Jia began to speak.

"As I said before, today's meeting is a closed-door meeting, and all information will not be published. Everyone is welcome to speak freely."

"Furthermore, there's no need for applause to show your support; all I need is a definite answer from you."

As soon as Minister Jia finished speaking, the atmosphere in the conference room became heavy.

At the same time, the screen behind Minister Jia also lit up.

A document appeared on the screen.

When everyone saw the title of the document, their pupils constricted.

A series of gasps of astonishment rang out.

"hiss……"

Lei Jun and Ren Zhengfei exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

Emergency Regulations on Mobile Operating System Security

The name itself already gave people a sense of foreboding.

As expected, Minister Jia's voice rang out, confirming everyone's premonition.

"Everyone heard what Academician Wang just said."

"The importance of the HarmonyOS system to us is something that those of us sitting here should be well aware of, so I won't repeat it."

"Next, on behalf of those above, I'd like to say a few things."

"As a purely independent domestic operating system, HarmonyOS is something we must support and promote with our resources; there is no doubt about that."

“I know some people will say, ‘Government dominance will stifle innovation!’ ‘Why should we abandon Android?’”

"Here, I can briefly answer these questions that you are concerned about!"

"The higher-ups will rebuild a community of shared interests, making it more profitable for you to switch systems than to simply change the shell."

"First, we will use fiscal leverage to activate the market and implement subsidy policies. Starting in October, every mobile phone pre-installed with the HarmonyOS system will receive a subsidy of 5% of its selling price."

"Secondly, official agencies plan to gradually achieve 100% HarmonyOS terminal procurement within three years."

"Furthermore, an additional 200% tax deduction will be applied to the R&D expenses of companies in the HarmonyOS ecosystem."

"The establishment of the National Data Exchange Center will firmly and resolutely implement the protection and in-depth development of national data assets."

"You can rest assured that core business data will not be mandatory to submit."

At this moment, Lei Jun suddenly raised his hand, holding a mobile phone.

"Boss, Xiaomi has started the development of the HarmonyOS system. However, the technical difficulty of switching from Android to HarmonyOS is too great and the requirements are too high. We need to ensure the user experience and also adapt it again. I'm afraid we won't be able to launch a phone pre-installed with HarmonyOS in a short period of time."

"In addition, I have two more requests: the MIUI code in the open-source community must retain the MIUI name."

"Secondly, there's the app store's commission; Xiaomi takes 25% of that."

With that, Lei Jun turned to Ren Zhengfei and the other mobile phone brand bosses and said, "Everyone, I've finished speaking. Feel free to add anything!"

Since Minister Jia emphasized that this was a closed-door meeting and would not be published, everyone should feel free to speak their minds.

The huge profits that major mobile phone manufacturers make each year based on the Android system are like a treasure trove they are guarding, so how could they easily give it up?

Besides, businessmen are by nature meticulous and calculating, so when their core interests are involved, they will naturally pursue them aggressively.

At the scale of Lei Jun's business, even a small profit margin adds up to a large sum over a year.

Naturally, one will want to maximize profits.

"I think it would be more appropriate to wait until Minister Jia finishes speaking before we say anything!"

Ren Zhengfei glanced at Lei Jun and said calmly.

Upon hearing Ren Zhengfei's words, Lei Jun's pupils contracted, and his expression instantly calmed down.

"I also think it's more appropriate to let the leader finish speaking first."

Vivo's Chen Yong also echoed this sentiment.

The crowd then voiced their opinions, refusing to follow Lei Jun's lead and express their views at this time.

Minister Jia ignored the matter and continued speaking.

"In the process of overcoming the life-or-death crisis of the HarmonyOS ecosystem, we must protect both developers and users, and no one should be left behind."

"..."

"Through fiscal means, we will raise trillions of yuan to support developers who develop native HarmonyOS applications."

"This includes, but is not limited to, exemption from corporate income tax for the first three years and interest-free entrepreneurial loans of 500,000 yuan for university student entrepreneurial teams."

"The state will organize professional technical teams to assist national-level applications in completing the adaptation in the shortest possible time, allowing users to switch seamlessly." "Develop Android compatibility layer 2.0 to ensure that all Android apps can run directly on the HarmonyOS system. As for legal risks, the government will take precautions."

"Here, I can clearly tell everyone that the one-click device transfer agreement is mandatory. No company can refuse it without a valid reason. The larger the scale and the more users a company has, the more it must shoulder its corporate responsibility and ensure that the interface is open!"

"In order to subsidize and stimulate users, the three major operators will provide exclusive data traffic subsidies."

"Finally, although the Emergency Regulations on Mobile Operating System Security are only temporary regulations, they will be formally enacted later and the Regulations on Mobile Operating System Security will be promulgated."

"..."

"Critical infrastructure workers will be banned from using overseas systems..."

"The compliance review engine will be integrated into the Android and iOS app stores in China."

"..."

"The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology will work with Galaxy Technology to lead the development of the 'Hongmeng Tianyan' project, which is based on RISC-V chips and quantum encrypted communication, and aims to achieve 100% localization of all government equipment by 2025."

"Starting today, regulatory authorities will be stationed in major app stores. Major manufacturers will cooperate fully with the investigation to get a thorough understanding of the app ecosystem. By the end of the year, stubborn apps that still refuse to be compatible with the HarmonyOS system will be removed and blocked."

"..."

"HarmonyOS is a domestically developed operating system and a breakthrough opportunity for domestic smartphone brands. Therefore, the higher authorities decided to establish the HarmonyOS Domestic Alliance, where each company can invest one billion yuan and hold one percent of the equity."

"Exchanging one billion for HarmonyOS shares is not a sale or a negotiation; it's a notification, and more importantly, an entry ticket. If you want the domestic market, first demonstrate your loyalty!"

Although Minister Jia spoke calmly, the crowd reacted strongly.

It has a feeling of thunder exploding in silence.

After Minister Jia finished speaking, Duan Yongming, who had been sitting in his seat with a walnut in his hand since he came in, suddenly said, "I'll contribute the two billion from OV!"

Vivo's Chen Yong and Oupao's Shen Wei suddenly looked at Duan Yongming.

Duan Yongming didn't stop there, and continued, "The shares will not belong to the company, but will be transferred to the 'China Youth Science and Technology Foundation,' and everyone here can serve as directors to supervise the project."

"However, I also have a request, which is to ask the leaders to help convey that OV phones pre-installed with the HarmonyOS system will receive an additional five percent export tax rebate!"

Minister Jia glanced at Duan Yongming, nodded, and said nothing.

Lei Jun's expression darkened upon seeing this.

Compared to Duan Yongming's methods, my speaking first was extremely unwise and despicable.

"Geely offers 3 billion yuan, and I want the exclusive rights to the HarmonyOS in-vehicle system!"

"I can acquire a smartphone brand and pre-install HarmonyOS on all its devices. I also have one request: I want a share of the supply chain for the Xuanwu Battery Manufacturing Plant in Tangdu City..."

Before Li Shufu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a series of coughs from Minister Jia and Chief Steward Zhao.

"Cough cough..."

"We'll discuss each issue individually; today we won't be discussing the Xuanwu Battery manufacturing plant."

Minister Jia glanced quickly at Wang Donglai and hurriedly changed the subject.

Wang Donglai naturally understood Li Shufu's thoughts and knew what everyone was thinking, so he directly stated, "Galaxy Technology will not take any of the revenue from the release of the HarmonyOS system shares!"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

This is no small sum of money.

"I will use these funds to establish an 'Open HarmonyOS Foundation' specifically to support the development of the HarmonyOS ecosystem."

“You can all serve as directors and exercise oversight.”

As soon as Wang Donglai finished speaking, Ren Zhengfei continued, "Chrysanthemum can also give up this part of the shares and transfer them to the 'Open HarmonyOS Foundation,' but I demand that the Android branch system be banned, and violators will be fined 10% of their annual revenue."

"Secondly, everyone shares user behavior data, and after anonymization, it is used to train large AI models."

Shen Wei, who had been silent until now, frowned and said, "Isn't President Ren's request a bit excessive..."

Ren Zhengfei's expression suddenly hardened, and he said sternly, "Excessive? At this point, if someone is still clinging to the Android branch system, what kind of behavior is that?"

As soon as Ren Zhengfei finished speaking, the atmosphere at the scene immediately became quiet.

At this moment, Minister Jia stepped forward and said, "Since everyone has no objections, we will draw engineers from various companies to work with relevant personnel to set up an adaptation center, and complete the adaptation work for the national software as soon as possible, as well as the upgrade of the Android compatible version."

"Just a reminder to everyone, the HarmonyOS Ecosystem Leading Group has already been established, and the HarmonyOS Ecosystem Promotion Office will be responsible for the specific work."

"Within 24 hours, we will open the HarmonyOS codebase; within 72 hours, we will hold a signing ceremony for the first batch of compatible manufacturers, which will be broadcast live across the entire network; within 100 days, I want to see more than 5,000 HarmonyOS ecosystem software."

Minister Jia paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "I want to see three things by this time next year."

"National software is no longer just an Android shell. The HarmonyOS ecosystem has more than 30,000 software programs, more than 200 million HarmonyOS users, and more than 400 million activated devices."

"Okay, let's break up the meeting!"

With Minister Jia standing up, the closed-door meeting came to an end.

The shock it would bring to everyone was only just beginning to build.

Minister Jia's words just now revealed a lot of information. In the past, any one of these points would have been enough to ignite a heated discussion on the Chinese internet.

For example, it could involve using intangible forces to directly remove or block apps that are not integrated into the HarmonyOS ecosystem.

Such remarks would only be made in closed-door meetings.

Normally, they do things without saying anything.

It was precisely because they spoke openly and honestly that everyone understood how determined the higher-ups were.

Not to mention the proposed digital services tax on iOS and Android, which is an even more groundbreaking measure.

In the past, countless people have protested against the domineering nature of iOS, but for the sake of international trade and communication, they have tolerated it.

Now, they have directly stated that they will impose a digital services tax ranging from a minimum of 25% to a maximum of 50%.

The change in attitude before and after better reflects the importance they attach to the HarmonyOS system.

In fact, everyone had the feeling that the reaction from above this time was huge, and the level of support was unprecedented.

However, everyone understood after just a moment's thought.

It's not that simple that HarmonyOS alone would cause this problem.

However, the situation changed after Galaxy Technology developed the Xuanwu Battery.

Among these, Galaxy Technology's strong scientific research capabilities are probably what the higher-ups value most.

The rise of a great power cannot be achieved by one or two technologies alone.

Instead, it has a complete and excellent industrial chain, as well as a large talent pool.

Currently, China has formed a complete industrial chain of light and heavy industries. Coupled with the expansion of higher education and the large number of talents cultivated, it has laid the foundation for its rise.

The emergence of Wang Donglai and Galaxy Technology was a key to unlocking their rise. (End of Chapter)
