Our Rise Era

Chapter 263 The Lost Person
"There is no way out..."

The night was very dark in the early morning.

Ge Guoxing was smoking a cigarette and looking into the distance.

There was some confusion.

This confusion comes from a sense of powerlessness.

In 06, he firmly believed that chips were the most important part of the future technology field, and could even rise to a strategic position.

In future technological wars, the chip war will definitely be a topic that cannot be avoided.

Therefore, he gave up the booming mobile phone industry and turned to the chip field, plunging into it without hesitation.

however……

The moment I really entered this industry...

Only then did he realize how ridiculous his ambitions were in the face of reality.

As a chaser...

We started to develop the chip and semiconductor field in 06.

From talent, to factory building, to technological transformation, to material research and development...

One of the difficulties in chip development lies in the complexity of the design process. This complexity comes not only from the high technicality of the design itself, but also involves the precise control of engineering details...

There is no other way to overcome these problems...

That is, spend money, spend money, and spend money again...

Then I tried again and again, and failure was almost commonplace...

However, after 8 years of persistence, apart from the most basic chip design, there has been no achievement at all except the level of [R&D Department] in 09.

And chip manufacturing...

They have fallen behind by who knows how many years and can't even get leftovers.

In this upcoming era of 4G, which is changing with each passing day...

He seemed to be leading Shengxing towards a path of extinction.

but……

He no longer had a choice.

……

A breeze blew.

Zhang Yang looked at Ge Guoxing's back.

He came to Ge Guoxing silently again and asked: "How much money do you have?"

"Running out."

"How long can it last?"

"Three months, so let's bet on these three months..."

Ge Guoxing put out his cigarette, turned around and smiled bitterly.

Zhang Yang nodded: "Okay, just three months. Don't be pessimistic. If you need money, just tell me and I'll find a way to get it for you."

When he heard this, Ge Guoxing trembled, then nodded: "I won't be polite either. In these three months, I will do my best to give you an answer."

"it is good!"

...............................

6 month 17 day.

[Android Open Source Alliance] brought together all of China's allies and held a meeting.

At the meeting...

The Samsung camp led by Kim Jin-myung argued with Qualcomm for nearly an hour due to differences of opinion.

This was also the first time that Samsung had an argument with Qualcomm in public over their differences in opinions on China.

[Samsung] criticized [Qualcomm] for having no contract spirit. Although everyone was in the same team, Robert met with Zhang Yang privately and talked to him about chip cooperation.

Qualcomm brought out the terms of the Android Open Alliance, saying that the two parties were only temporarily on the same boat because of Google's initiative, helping to jointly promote the Android system. They never said that Qualcomm chips could not be supplied to other companies besides the Android camp...

Their purpose of entering China is very simple, that is to make money by selling chips!

As for who the buyer is...

He doesn't care.

……

Faced with such a situation, Qiao Taik finally felt a little annoyed, but he had no choice but to try to smooth things over.

I privately communicated with representatives of both parties for a long time...

Finally, under his coordination...

[Samsung] took a step back and said it could sell it to Zhang Yang, but the prerequisite was that the price would still be higher than theirs.

Qualcomm also took a step back. The supply chain is still mainly in the alliance, but as long as Zhang Yang can afford the price, they can also afford it...

After confirming the release date of Samsung's new mid-range mobile phone and confirming that the two parties will cooperate in the mobile phone field, a temporary settlement was finally reached.

……

Although a temporary reconciliation.

But Jotek knew very well that once the rift existed, it would become increasingly difficult to lead the next team.

If Samsung's mobile phone sales continue to be lower than expected...

Then, facing the fierce competition from IOS, it will be stuck in a stalemate, which is something he does not want to see.

not to mention!
Zhang Yang, who always likes to take shortcuts, once he goes all in and gets Qualcomm's chip processing solution and solves the hardware operation problems of the Xiaomai series of mobile phones, with Zhang Yang's current appeal in China, it is very likely that he will become a rising third-party system. By then, after the low-end market is completely controlled, Android will lose its appeal.

And there is Microsoft behind Novia.

Although the results of the 499 phone were not satisfactory, Jotek clearly realized that Novia had invested heavily this time to regain the market.

What's more, the promotion of Novia's high-end flagship model in China is almost overwhelming...

……

In this era when the 4G era is about to arrive and the horn is gradually sounding.

A foreseeable stranglehold is gradually entering the market.

And when a variable appeared in this stranglehold, it became difficult to control. …

evening.

Sitting in the chair, Joe Tech weighed the pros and cons for a long time.

He stared at [Novia] intently, and after a moment, he finally made a decision...

....................................

“You are a talented person…”

"but……"

"Some people just come up with an idea, a way to play..."

"It completely wipes out a talented person and takes away about 80% of his wealth..."

"Then, will you feel willing?"

"..."

When you are busy...

No one cares about your life or death, just like a stray dog ​​on the roadside.

But when you are the center of everyone's attention, countless flowers and applause will rush in from afar and surround you overnight.

And in this encirclement.

Many people will subconsciously immerse themselves in it and gradually lose themselves.

……

[Chuangshi Technology] In the office.

A ray of setting sun shone on Shen Zhongjian's face.

At this moment, Shen Zhongjian was looking at a middle-aged man from the [Android Alliance].

The middle-aged man is named Kate. He is the head of the [Android APP Game] department and is specifically responsible for the adaptation between the Android system and games.

Shen Zhongjian was very surprised and a little dazed when he saw Kate.

But then, he suddenly realized something.

At this critical moment when the entire environment is competing with each other, as the producer of several popular mobile phones of [Chuangshi Technology], he plays a vital role in the future strategic system.

in other words……

He looks left and right...

When Kate met him, she was very enthusiastic, flattered him and told him how important she was.

"Mr. Zhang's entrepreneurial experience is unmatched by anyone, not even me. I just took advantage of Mr. Zhang's help to stand up... Mr. Zhang is the soul, and I am just an executor..."

Shen Zhongjian smiled innocently, somewhat modestly.

Kate pushed her glasses and looked at him with a smile: "But, [Chuangshi Technology] was originally named Shen, but now his surname is Zhang. The market value has exceeded 3 billion. In the future, it can be said to be a continuous cash cow, but... Mr. Shen, what can you get? How much can you get out of a hundred dollars?"

"Without President Zhang, there would be no me today..." Shen Zhongjian shook his head.

“But I think you need a space, you need a platform, a bigger, global platform…”

"so……"

"If you are willing, we can invest 3 million in you to help you start a new game company. You can make any game you want with the 3 million. We only need the game copyright, and we will give you a 55- split. You only need to develop the game, and you don't have to worry about anything else... If you can leave with your team, then we will make an additional condition that you can't refuse..."

"What conditions?" Shen Zhongjian was stunned.

Kate didn't say anything, but smiled and changed the subject: "Your game is very good, but Zhang Yang's platform is too small. It only has a market of tens of millions, which limits your upper limit... You should think about it carefully."

"I won't betray Mr. Zhang." Shen Zhongjian shook his head.

"No matter what choice you make, we just provide you with another way, that's all..." After seeing Shen Zhongjian's determination, Kate shook her head, then stood up. With Shen Zhongjian's gaze, he left the office.

Shen Zhongjian looked at Kate's back for a long time.

Fell into deep thought.

....................................

"Mr. Shen..."

"Mr. Zhang, someone from Android just talked to me..."

"Oh, Android, let's talk about gaming cooperation?"

"Yes."

"What did you say?"

"They want to spend 1.5 million to poach me and help me start a new company. 1.5 million, they underestimate me."

"..."

Shen Zhongjian walked into Zhang Yang's office and told him everything about Android.

After listening to this, Zhang Yang smiled and said, "1.5 million is indeed too little..."

Shen Zhongjian nodded.

But then he paused for a moment and said, "Boss Zhang, even though I haven't made any contributions over the years, I have worked hard, right?"

"Yes, very much. Over the years, with the help of games, we have temporarily established a foothold in the mobile phone industry. You have made an indelible contribution..." Zhang Yang nodded with a smile, agreeing with Shen Zhongjian's words.

"Mr. Zhang, I am a straightforward person. I am very grateful that you acquired us [Chuangshi Technology] when we were about to go bankrupt. Over the years, I have been conscientiously completing each of your tasks, day and night, without daring to slack off at all..." Shen Zhongjian raised his head and looked directly at Zhang Yang.

"I saw it all..." Zhang Yang still nodded with a smile.

"Boss Zhang, if you're talking about repaying a favor, then I should be considered to have repaid the favor, right?"

"We are just cooperating. There is no such thing as repaying a favor or not. Everyone is free..." Zhang Yang shook his head and his smile became even brighter.

"I hope that our future cooperation can continue..." Shen Zhongjian nodded. For some reason, when he looked directly into Zhang Yang's eyes, he wanted to dodge. But when he thought of his achievements over the years, his gaze became firm again.

"Everyone hopes to continue the cooperation." Zhang Yang nodded in agreement.

"I want to take back [Creation Technology]!" Shen Zhongjian took a deep breath.

"[Chuangshi Technology] is originally yours, the legal person is yours, and we don't participate in the internal operations and structure..."

"But the majority of the shares are not mine. I only have 30% of the shares." Shen Zhongjian gritted his teeth and finally said this.

Zhang Yang's smile did not diminish when he heard this, but he did not say anything.

Just wiping the teacup silently.
