68: Chapter 68 The Three-Way Split of the Mobile Phone System Market!

Huaxing Technology Headquarters.

The news of the Pangu System going open source had spread across the entire internet in just half a day. At this moment, Ren Fengxing was thinking with a serious expression while a meeting was underway in the conference room, with intense discussions constantly reaching his ears.

Why did Fanmi suddenly open source the Pangu System? Isn't this revealing their trump card? Even if the supply chain is being suppressed by giant capital, there's no need to be this extreme, right?

I feel it's not that simple. Given the capabilities their upper management has shown before, they shouldn't do something like self-sabotage!

The supply chain being cut off is an imminent crisis; could they be open-sourcing the system at this time to alleviate this?

But what does the system have to do with the supply chain? This move is a bit hard to understand...

...

Accompanied by the sound of discussion, gazes eventually turned involuntarily toward Ren Fengxing, who was frowning in thought.

They are courting death to live! Ren Fengxing raised his head and spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of admiration.

What did you think of? asked Luo Jiancheng, who was nearby, in a thoughtful manner.

Ren Fengxing did not answer directly, but instead looked at a figure on his left and asked: Old Yu, tell me your thoughts right now?

Yu Dadong frowned tightly. He hadn't spoken just now because he was actually thinking about this very issue. He also felt that this matter was not that simple, and the idea of self-sabotage was even more absurd.

Open-sourcing the Pangu System is definitely a sensational event for the smartphone industry, and one could even say it's subversive!

This means that mobile phone manufacturers at home and abroad now have another choice besides android, and the advantages of the Pangu System compared to android are obvious, whether it's fluency or functionality. The only disadvantage might be the software ecosystem...

But if we have to choose, we might be able to try developing our own system based on the Pangu System, because only in this way will we have a chance to defeat Fanmi!

He was also very surprised by the open-sourcing of the Pangu System, even finding it hard to believe.

But as the newly appointed head of the Huaxing mobile phone division, he was now fully focused on reviving this half-dead business and had even signed a military order, so he was thinking more about what kind of impact this matter would have on Huaxing mobile phones!

Since the rise of Fanmi, he had been constantly analyzing this company, but the more he understood, the more he admired them. It was precisely because of this that his desire to surpass Fanmi was even stronger, and now, he had undoubtedly seen an opportunity.

That was to use the open-source Pangu System to customize Huaxing's own mobile operating system. He had even decided to apply to Ren Fengxing as soon as the meeting ended!

It's not just you who will have this thought; I think peers in the entire mobile phone field are probably the same as you right now, feeling very excited...

Ren Fengxing listened to Yu Dadong's words and smiled with satisfaction.

This is their goal... They want to accelerate the construction of the software ecosystem. No, the ambition might be even greater. They want to be like the android system and rapidly expand their influence through open-sourcing!! Luo Jiancheng was the first to react, his tone revealing a hint of surprise, clearly having grasped the key point.

In this way, the supplier problem might be easily solved!!

If they can really do it, then it's not cutting off their own wings, but rather attaching a pair of wings, from now on soaring upward, with the vast sea and sky ahead!!!

The ambition is too great. A company that was founded just half a year ago actually has such courage; it's simply unimaginable...

The others had clearly reacted as well, instantly looking at each other, their hearts shocked beyond measure.

It's not just about accelerating the software ecosystem and solving the supplier problem; they also open-sourced their self-developed Lingxi Instruction Set! Ren Fengxing spoke again, his tone becoming somewhat serious.

That is the instruction set for developing the core architecture of the Pangu System. Its functions are very powerful and not worse than the ARM instruction set. The open-sourcing of this instruction set is of great significance! Luo Jiancheng had clearly researched it and spoke in a deep voice.

Exactly, this is another decision by Fanmi that makes me admire them. The open-sourcing of this instruction set may change the entire landscape of Huaxia Technology development!!

Ren Fengxing's expression became increasingly grave, and his mood was becoming more and more excited.

The conference room suddenly fell into silence. Everyone was thinking about what Ren Fengxing said and gradually understood the meaning behind it.

Yu Dadong was originally from a technical background, so he naturally understood the meaning in Ren Fengxing's words. Wasn't their Spare Tire plan, which they had been laying out, meant to prevent being choked by Western countries on technology in the future?

And the appearance of the Lingxi Instruction Set, from another perspective, undoubtedly solved many of their problems and also indirectly provided support for the Spare Tire plan.

You have to know, any chip, whether it's for mobile phones, computers, cars, or control systems for high-end equipment, etc...

All design frameworks are basically designed based on the X86 and ARM instruction sets, and these two instruction sets are not open source. Even if Huaxing designed a chip, as long as it uses these two instruction sets, it is possible to have its authorization revoked and be unable to use it.

And the emergence of the Lingxi Instruction Set solved this hidden danger.

This is of vital importance to their entire Spare Tire plan!

At this moment, everyone's mood became somewhat complicated...

Elder Ren is right, this company is not simple at all! Luo Jiancheng praised sincerely, his tone carrying a hint of emotion.

More than just not simple, as long as they are given time to grow, their future potential is limitless. Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit alarmed...

If you ask me, the most outrageous part is still their research team and chief technology officer. If they didn't have absolute confidence, how could they dare to make such a strategy!

Yes, this is equivalent to putting all mobile phone manufacturers at the same starting point. As for who can go further in the future, we'll see who has more ability!

A thorough major reshuffle; the pattern of three-way division in mobile operating systems seems to be about to take shape...

...

After the meeting, Ren Fengxing called out to Luo Jiancheng.

Old Luo, has there been a response from Fanmi? After learning about the news announced by Fanmi today, his desire to meet the person behind Fanmi became even more urgent.

There are many things he wants to chat about.

Not just about technology, but also about the development of future technology.

Their chief technology officer just returned to the company yesterday. I will go and arrange it now; a meeting should not be a problem! Luo Jiancheng said in a deep voice.

Okay, if his time is not an issue, then arrange it for tomorrow!

You are so impatient!

Say whatever you want, I really want to see him!

Ren Fengxing smiled, his eyes revealing a hint of anticipation.

Alright, I'll definitely get it scheduled for you!
