101: It's amazing, others, Apple, haven't developed it yet, you have the technology
Chapter 101: Unbelievable, Apple hasn't even developed it yet, and your technology is already several generations ahead?
After a long silence.
Zheng Lixing stared at the unusually 'frightening' figure and said softly, "However, their 10% net profit share isn't high."
"It's just that one trillion usd is quite intimidating."
What is Da Xia's current GDP? It's just a little over five trillion usd combined.
If he could really earn that much money, he felt that aircraft carriers could also be 'dumped like dumplings'; why build only one? Others might think Da Xia couldn't afford to build them.
One per province!
However.
Zhang Yuli, however, was thinking seriously, "Is one trillion usd frightening?"
"This isn't frightening?" Zheng Lixing was astonished.
"If this 'smartphone' technology can truly be realized."
Zhang Yuli shook his head and said with certainty, "The figure of one trillion usd might just be its revenue for a few years."
"Last year, 1.2 billion mobile phones were sold globally, with smartphones accounting for over 11%, and this proportion will rapidly expand in the future."
"Just think, what a massive number that is."
After speaking, he decisively entered a reply.
【Da Xia agrees to this plan and will fully implement every aspect of this 'technology'.】
【The 10% net profit dividend will be settled and distributed to your organization punctually on January 1st each year. Should an early settlement be required, we will fully cooperate.】
Da Xia has never been one to hog resources, and for the Mysterious Organization to provide technology as a contract condition and receive a 10% profit share, Zhang Yuli considered it very fair.
In fact, this profit share could even be described as 'cheap', considering that Da Xia previously gave away a full 50% of the profits from Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles.
This was also the question Zheng Lixing wanted to ask: "Fan, isn't this profit share too low?"
"This should be the amount the Mysterious Organization decided on after careful consideration."
Zhang Yuli shook his head slightly and said, "They only want 10% of the net profit; all other matters require us to push forward step by step."
The current application prospects for Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles are still too small, and the overall market size cannot develop.
Don't be fooled by the large 50% profit share; currently, the total revenue is just that little, and perhaps the Mysterious Organization doesn't even care about it.
But 'smartphones' are different; the construction of factories, equipment costs, labor costs, and sales channels all require a lot of manpower at every stage, unlike Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, which can be handled simply.
Therefore, the Mysterious Organization only requested a 10% net profit share, which both satisfies its need for long-term fixed income and ensures Da Xia has substantial benefits to continue this 'business'.
This is the best win-win choice.
Lu Family Village.
The moonlight shone on Lucy's face, making her long eyelashes appear as if they were frosted.
"Why do you keep kicking off the blanket? Are you always this restless when you sleep?"
Lu Ze tapped her forehead, finding that Lucy still had no reaction.
He covered her with the blanket she had kicked off once more.
Looking at the email from Da Xia on the light screen, Lu Ze fell into thought.
'The 10% net profit share should be enough for most of the organization's future expenses.'
According to his vision, the peripheral members of the entire Great Wall Watcher organization might eventually be spread across all corners of the globe, and money would surely flow like water.
Preparing for a rainy day is something that must be considered now.
He didn't reply to the message again, and just as he was about to close the light screen to get some good rest.
Suddenly, another message popped up on his eyeball.
【May I ask when your party will come to collect the remaining 'remuneration'?】
【We in Da Xia can also prepare in advance.】
Looking at this question.
Lu Ze thought for a moment and quickly replied, 'Organization members will arrive in Da Xia within this period, and the required 'remuneration' will be communicated to Da Xia one day in advance.'
He had already figured out how to submit the 'technological items' in his hand to Da Xia, but that time was not yet close.
Xia Academy of Sciences, Classified External Liaison Office.
Seeing this reply, the two old men, whose legs were originally a bit stiff, suddenly sprang from their chairs as if a switch had been flipped, their faces filled with pleasant surprise.
"They're coming within this period? This week? Or this month?" Zheng Lixing was a bit incoherent.
"No matter when, first let Fan prepare; the maiden flight of the J-20 absolutely cannot fail."
Zhang Yuli's smile widened: "Also, notify the other research institutes that their projects must also accelerate. That date is less than three months away."
Hearing this, Zheng Lixing seemed to guess something: "Fan, are you planning to...?"
Zhang Yuli smiled mysteriously: "That's right, I plan to let them make an appearance then."
On that day three months later, he planned to invite the Mysterious Organization to Da Xia again, and then, in front of over a billion people nationwide, he would bring out Da Xia's hidden treasures to awe the world's villains.
Zheng Lixing also seemed to be momentarily stunned by his bold idea.
But he quickly reacted, his eyes flashing sharply: "It's our sixtieth birthday, after all. We really should give the whole world a surprise."
After the two discussed for a while.
The topic returned to this 'smartphone' technology.
"Fan, where should this technology be handed over for research and production?"
"Is it the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology?" Zheng Lixing frowned deeply.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yuli decisively denied it: "Inappropriate. They are a management department, not a research institution."
Although the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology is indeed responsible for managing internet communications, software, etc., this does not mean that they sufficiently understand this aspect of technology, let alone can produce and manufacture smartphones.
Management and R&D production are not the same concept.
"Who should we look for? Which company can handle the production?"
Zhang Yuli also had a headache now.
Who in Da Xia knows the most about smartphone technology? This question stumped him.
It's hard to find top experts in this field domestically, let alone smartphone development companies, which are few and far between.
Manufacturers like Xiaxing are good at making contract phones bundled with Mobile, Telecom, etc., but if you ask them to research and manufacture smartphones? That might be overestimating their capabilities.
And Meizu, whose development momentum is currently strong, would be even more out of the question.
Zheng Lixing suddenly remembered someone: "How about we find Fan from the Software Research Institute?"
"He's very good at mobile phone software development and is the most suitable candidate."
Among the top scholars in the mobile phone field within the entire Xia Academy of Sciences, he immediately thought of this person.
Hearing this, Zhang Yuli quickly said, "Then what are we waiting for? Call him over quickly."
"It's already past ten at night. How about tomorrow?" Zheng Lixing frowned.
"No, right now."
Zhang Yuli's tone carried an undeniable decisiveness.
Tomorrow would be too late.
Although this smartphone technology is two or three generations ahead of the current world, Zhang Yuli and Lu Ze shared the same approach.
That is, to use the fastest speed to erode the market share occupied by Apple and Samsung smartphone manufacturers, especially the most profitable high-end market, so the development speed of 'smartphones' must be fast.
Every day delayed means a little less market share captured, and Da Xia will earn a little less money. Not a minute can be delayed.
Half an hour later.
A fast-moving official car screeched to a halt at the entrance of the Xia Academy of Sciences in the dead of night.
Fan Chaoxian, completely bewildered, entered the dean's office with a dazed expression.
"I say, Fan, why are you looking for me so late?"
Before he finished speaking, he noticed Zheng Lixing also sitting nearby, drinking tea: "General Zheng, you're here too? What happened? Why did you call me over so urgently?"
He, a software developer, had nothing to do with Zheng Lixing, who developed missiles.
Could it be that he was asked to develop a brand new missile attitude control system?
"Fan, take a look at this OS System first."
Zhang Yuli didn't explain much, but instead pointed to the screen on the table.
In the past half an hour, he had already run the program sent by the Mysterious Organization on a computer using a virtual machine.
After all, with such software programs, one couldn't expect others to analyze a draft or to 'instantly' spot problems by just browsing the code, as if they were a human AI computer.
Hearing this, Fan Chaoxian, still puzzled, leaned over and looked at the lines of code and a preliminary program that Zhang Yuli was pointing to on the screen.
"This is... a mobile phone OS System?"
With his many years of development experience, he could tell at a glance that this was a virtual machine program simulating a mobile phone OS System.
Even the screen displayed a very simple phone homepage.
In this era, such simulation technology was already quite common.
However, looking at the desktop information and various functions of this mobile phone OS System, Fan Chaoxian's brows furrowed deeper and deeper!
What first caught his eye was the operating interface, which was much more aesthetically pleasing and smoother than the current Android, Symbian, and Apple systems.
Even the transition animations when clicking on applications appeared incredibly smooth.
Furthermore, the operation settings and other features were much richer than the current Android and OS System.
"Which genius developed this? Does our Da Xia have such a god-like existence?" Fan Chaoxian gasped.
From these two points alone, the developer of this mobile phone OS System was a top-tier 'genius' far surpassing him.
Moreover, why did it look more and more familiar?
'This thing, why does it look a bit like the OS System?'
'Is it an OS System that has been upgraded several versions?'
Fan Chaoxian muttered to himself.
Although compared to the current latest version of OS3.0, the elements on this system had already undergone tremendous changes.
But with his keen eye, it was not difficult to spot some clues; many parts of it bore the shadow of OS!
Is this a system mimicking OS?
'The fluidity and smoothness of this system, the compatibility of various applications, and the richness of its features are all several times better than the OS System...'
Fan Chaoxian was even more astonished.
Good heavens, others just released theirs, and you've already come up with a more advanced, iterative version?
And it's a version that's at least several generations ahead of the current Apple.
This isn't just mimicking; it's like they've packaged Apple's entire technical team, isn't it?
This is unbelievable.
