Chapter 497 Two Android Brands
The appearance of dozens of female engineers in the video instantly caused a stir at the scene, especially among the male engineers, who were extremely excited. In the development team, female engineers are practically as rare as giant pandas, and this video featured so many of them.
The video is only one minute and 12 seconds long, and then it's Xiaomi's video.
"In this world, there is a group of engineers whose greatest joy is performance enthusiasts. Therefore, these like-minded comrades formed an enthusiast team, and their slogan is 'Born for enthusiasts.' They formed the Xiaomi brand with the goal of being born for enthusiasts. Here, we focus on performance, making it a paradise for every performance enthusiast." Upon seeing this group of men appear and their slogan, countless reporters, media, and developers at the scene immediately applauded.
Many developers are performance enthusiasts.
"And there is another group of people in this world who, although engaged in rigorous engineering development work, possess an artistic heart. Thus, Ikkyu was born. Ikkyu was created specifically for artistic youth, and here you can find the belonging of artistic and refreshing people."
After playing all four videos, exactly five minutes had passed. By this time, all viewers who had been watching the live stream understood that the four brands featured in this launch event were: Cloud Technology, representing high-end technology; vivo, catering to female consumers; Xiaomi, focusing on performance enthusiasts; and Yixiu, representing a more artistic and refreshing style.
"Hello, world!" Chen Yu strode onto the stage and uttered a sentence that everyone who studies computer languages knows.
Chen Yu's words nearly drove the atmosphere at the scene to madness, especially among the engineers.
"I believe that for engineers who do electronic development, whether it is hardware or software, the phrase 'hello, world' is familiar to you."
Everyone has watched the four videos, so you probably already have a general idea. Now I want to say something: these four brands use the same system.
This operating system is based on Java and is primarily used in mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.
He was defined as Android! The English name is Android! After Chen Yu shouted this name, many Google engineers watching the live broadcast of the press conference were not calm, because their Android project was only three months in the making, everything was just getting into the swing of things, and the name was exactly the same.
It's worth noting that Google officially unveiled its Android operating system on November 5th of last year. However, this operating system was still in its early stages of development and was not yet fully mature.
"As far as I know, on November 5th last year, Google in the United States also held a press conference and launched an operating system also called Android, which is also based on Java. Our engineers also studied and analyzed the Android operating system developed by Google and found that it is just a newborn child, only very similar to our system development philosophy."
"I was planning to change my name, but the other person posted it first!" Chen Yu's words attracted everyone's attention because the news was too explosive. They didn't expect the system to have a collision.
They were aware of Google's Android, but their Android only had a core framework and was still a long way from being truly usable.
Meanwhile, Android on Chen Yu's side has already been officially commercialized, and the gap is quite significant.
"Most importantly, we currently hold the copyright to the Java language. However, there's no need to be afraid or worry unnecessarily. We wouldn't do anything underhanded. The world is full of wonders, and if our ideas overlap, it's just a coincidence. We'll grant free licenses to any company or organization to use Java. In other words, we're open-sourcing this language! We don't pay any copyright fees, and we cover all costs for upgrades and development."
"It's just a small contribution, I guess!" Chen Yu's words were met with applause from the audience.
I have the utmost admiration for Chen Yu's character.
This operating system, called Android, remains open source, and we sincerely invite engineers worldwide to join our team to develop and improve it. Of course, for the company to survive, one-sided dedication is not enough.
After all, cloud technology is not God.
Although the Android system is open source, we charge $5 per device, and this standard will not change within the next ten years.
Additionally, we provide technical support to companies that pay over $100 million.
If you encounter any technical problems, you can apply for technical assistance from Cloud Technology, which is free! However, the technical assistance is limited to Android, and the scope of assistance is limited to a single area.
"I think if we didn't set this up, some entrepreneurs would definitely take out $100 million and ask us to design a phone for them right away!" Chen Yu said, and the audience burst into laughter.
Because they knew that what Chen Yu said would definitely happen.
We also sincerely invite the world's top ten device sellers to join our annual technical standards conference to jointly define some technical standards for Android. Because I believe that if a company can achieve top-ten sales, it must have its own unique strengths.
There is no inherent superiority or inferiority in technology.
Chen Yu's words were met with another round of applause.
"If I were to go into detail about the Android operating system, I could talk to you for a month or two. I developed this system myself, so I have a pretty good understanding of it."
I'll just give a brief explanation next.
It features video recording/playback capabilities and supports uploading to video websites; it supports stereo Bluetooth headsets and automatic pairing; it uses the latest web technology browser, allowing you to browse web pages normally on your mobile phone, and it also supports copy/paste and in-page searching; it incorporates cloud search, so image search is no problem.
GPS performance is in no way inferior to iOS; it offers an on-screen virtual keyboard; the home screen includes a music player and photo frame widgets; some applications even automatically rotate with the phone; SMS, Gmail, calendar, and more are all readily available. Of course, the system's built-in Gmail allows for batch deletion of emails; this Gmail doesn't just support Crazy Mail or cloud email, it supports all mainstream email services on the market.
If you say, "What if my email address is unconventional?", I can only say, "Sorry, kid, unconventional email addresses aren't part of our current mainstream development."
