After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 227 We Are All Friends

Although Zhongguancun is called a village, it is actually a park.

It stretches from the North Fifth Ring Road in the north to the West Second Ring Road in the south, with a total area of ​​217 square kilometers, accounting for one 75th of the entire capital.

Although Tianxing Technology's Beijing office is located in Zhongguancun like Ideal Auto, it takes more than half an hour to drive there.

"How about it?"

A group of people gathered around the computer on the hood of the car, discussing something animatedly; even Li Xiang would occasionally interject.

Lu Liang is like an illiterate. When it comes to computer technology, he only knows to restart if he can't handle the problem. If restarting doesn't solve the problem, he will reinstall the system.

Li Jiahui was always thinking about Boss Lu. He stepped out of the crowd and said softly, "Boss Lu, it's the same as what I thought. The ideal system is Linux."

Linux is an operating system that is free to use and spread. The 500 million he just mentioned about hiring a team to outsource the work is an overestimate.

If we offer a reward of 100 million and hire a few engineers with relevant majors, we can adapt the system to the car in less than two months.

The level of intelligent driving is infinitely close to zero. It is just a voice central control system, which is mainly used to dispatch functions within the car.

Such as playing music, raising and lowering windows, seat heating, seat massage, interior lighting and other auxiliary entertainment functions.

"So, our system is better than his?"

Lu Liang didn't understand, but he could hear Li Jiahui's arrogance.

Li Jiahui pondered and explained in words that Lu Liang could understand: "ONE is equipped with a 14nm Snapdragon 820A chip. If the smooth execution rate using the Linux system is 70%, then using STOS is at least 90%."

The main reason is that they focus their energy on intelligent driving. If the system is optimized, it can at least reach 110%.

Lu Liang understood: "Then I know what's going on."

As for what Li Jiahui said, that it is still a long way from intervening in power, braking and other systems, he did not take it seriously.

If auxiliary entertainment functions become stuck or the feedback is not timely, it is not a big problem. However, if this happens when the power system is connected, it is a disregard for human life.

Ideal wanted to use it, but Lu Liang didn't dare let them.

Soon, Li Xiang also withdrew from the discussion and exclaimed: "Mr. Lu, I didn't expect you to give me a surprise."

"Mr. Li, this system is not yet mature and can only be said to be barely usable." Lu Liang smiled humbly, very calmly.

"To have achieved such results in half a year is already remarkable." Li Xiang smiled apologetically, secretly cursing Lu Liang a hundred times in his heart.

There are less than 48 hours left before the launch conference, and he really wants to install the TSOS system on Ideal ONE.

He knew very well what the Linux system was like. It would be embarrassing if it froze or became unresponsive during the press conference.

Li Xiang could only bite the bullet and ask, "Mr. Lu, what do you think about the cost?"

"We are all friends, why should we ask for money, especially for an immature car system."

Lu Liang was very generous and made everything free, including future system updates.

Li Jiahui said that although the current version of the car computer cannot intervene in the power system, it can act as an observer to collect driving data and lay a good foundation for future intelligent driving.

Li Xiang saw Lu Liang's intention and laughed dryly: "Since Mr. Lu is so generous, we won't be polite."

"We are all friends." Lu Liang smiled.

He has been planning to get Luo Yonghao's Hammer OS as soon as possible, then optimize the central control, and finally learn from Tesla and make it open for free.

As long as everyone gets used to their system, they will be able to reap a huge profit when the intelligent driving version comes out.

But there is a prerequisite, they must always be far ahead, so that car dealers will think it is better to buy than to make.

If the performance lead of the car computer is not large, then they will definitely choose to develop it themselves, just like Li Bing of NIO.

However, in the next two or three years, no one will probably bet heavily on this, giving them enough time.

Because the new energy market is still too small and the prospects are unclear, the new car-making forces have spent all their energy just to survive, so they don’t have the spare money to develop their own car computers.

Just like the current mobile phone industry, it is only in recent years that domestic operating systems such as OPPO, Surge, MIUI, and Hongmeng have been put on the agenda. In the early years, these manufacturers directly used Android.

After a while, Lu Liang kept Li Jiahui and several scientific researchers in Ideal to help them complete the system debugging work before the press conference.

He brought Wen Chao and his security guards to Jile Tang in the capital, booked a large pool, and waited for Zhu Hu to come.

"Brother Lu, how come you are free tonight? Please invite Brother Hu to come over and take a hot spring bath?"

Old Zhu's face was full of smiles. When he heard that Lu Liang had made a lot of money by shorting the Dow Jones, he knew that he could save some trouble again this year.

Jinshajiang is also a private equity fund, managing about $20 billion in assets, and invested $ million in Luliang. If Tianxing makes more money, Jinshajiang can make less money, and the performance pressure will not be so great.

"He definitely wouldn't come here for no reason." Lu Liang smiled and waved his hand to disperse the service staff by the pool.

Seeing this, Zhu Hu stopped smiling and sat by the pool to soak his feet: "If you need help, just let me know."

Lu Liang sat next to Zhu Hu and soaked his feet together: "How much do you know about Smartisan Technology?"

He made an appointment with Zhu Hu tonight to talk to him about how to dismantle Smartisan Technology.

Zhu Hu thought for a moment and said, "Not much. I just thought Lao Luo was a troublemaker, so I just invested a little."

Luo Yonghao's style of doing things can be described as exaggerated. Every time there is news to be announced, a press conference will be held at the National Convention Center.

Although the rental cost is only a few hundred thousand a day, outsiders don’t know this, and just looking at the sign of the National Convention Center, they will think it is very awesome.

So even though Zhu Hu knew that Luo Yonghao was fishing, he still took the bait and led the C round of financing with 7000 million yuan, which was not a lot.

"So what's the current financial situation?" Lu Liang asked again.

"I remember taking a look last month. There was less than 500,000 yuan in the account, and there was still more than 10 billion yuan owed for goods."

Zhu Hu was surprised: "You are not interested in hammers?"

If Lu Liang is interested in Hammer, he will have to re-examine it.

Tik Tok has completely conquered the southern market and also poses a threat to Kuaishou in the north. The international version of TT has also caused quite a stir in Southeast Asia.

The market's valuation of TikTok has also risen, from US$18 million to US$ million to US$ billion, already exceeding ByteDance's valuation.

This is enough to prove that Lu Liang not only has a good vision in finance, but also has a strong sense of the Internet.

Although the new energy industry, which he is most optimistic about, still looks half-dead, the industry must always take its time.

Lu Liang said bluntly: "I want the Hammer system. What is the probability that Luo Yonghao will sell the entire team?"

Zhu Hu asked tentatively: "Are you planning to switch to car computers?"

Lu Liang nodded, not worrying about exposing his target and attracting a scramble for his products, because the structure of the mobile phone industry has basically taken shape, and the surviving manufacturers now all have their own systems.

Whether it is OV, Xiaomi, Meizu, or Juhua, if they use the Hammer system, they will be ridiculed to death by their competitors.

As for the car industry, the same old saying applies: the market is too small, the prospects are unclear, and no one will put effort into car computers.

Zhu Hu groaned: "Luo has a stubborn temper. Asking him to sell the operating system is no less than selling the entire Hammer."

"So, there's nothing to talk about?" Lu Liang narrowed his eyes. If literary discussion didn't work, then don't blame him for using violence.

Just drive Smartisan Technology into bankruptcy, and then Luo will have to sell it even if he doesn’t want to.

Zhu Hu coughed a few times and said, "Actually, Hammer still has some brand value."

If Hammer goes bankrupt, 7000 million will be wasted. Although Luo Yonghao will have to pay compensation, he doesn't know when he can afford it.

The best case scenario is that Lu Liang takes over, creates a new shell, and directly lists the company. With his influence in the financial market, he can turn it into 7 million yuan in a matter of minutes.

Lu Liang was speechless and glared at him angrily: "Pick up a mouse and open an Internet cafe?"

Hammer is in debt of more than 1 billion yuan. There is no money in the company's account, and there are only a pile of obsolete products in the warehouse. The mobile phone ecological niche has also been basically divided up. Even if he was kicked in the head by a donkey, he would not take over.

Zhu Hu said: "You can't say that. The car computer and the mobile phone in the car have something in common."

Lu Liang shook his head. He had read the information about Hammer and found that even their mobile phones were produced by Foxconn. They didn't even have an industry.

There are only more than 400 employees, and they have nothing. Only the system patent is worth some money, but what’s the use of other things?

Lu Liang stopped Zhu Hu from continuing: "Brother Hu, will you help me?"

Zhu Hu was speechless for a moment, swallowed the words back, and nodded heavily: "Help."

Obviously, the book loss of 7000 million is nothing compared to Lu Liang's friendship.

When Lu Liang invited him to invest in Douyin, he would have made more than five 7000 million based on the current valuation.

What's more, it seems that Hammer is powerless to turn the situation around. This investment is doomed to fail, so it is better to do a favor.

After all, he is still thinking about Tianxing Technology.

　Thanks to book friend 6440 for the reward.
