Rebirth of the Wild Age

: Seven hundred and ten [Father of Android]

Song Weiyang came to the capital this time, of course, not specifically to drink with Han Sanye.

   Larry Page, one of the founders of Google, and Andy Rubin, the father of the Android system, came to China together and made it clear that they would investigate the Android mobile phone system.

   At this time, Apple's smart phone plan has been leaked tragically. Although only a half of the claws were exposed, it still attracted the attention of the entire Silicon Valley. The outside world became more concerned about this, and the information in the project vented more and more, and Google responded quickly.

   Donglaishun.

   Larry Page and Andy Rubin have already come to the private room, and the person responsible for bringing them to the hot pot restaurant is Li Xiaofeng, the vice president of Ark Technology.

Various sauces and side dishes have been brought to the table in advance. Larry Page pointed to the copper stove hot pot and said to Andy Rubin in the tone of a person from over: "I have eaten this kind of hot pot in Shenghai. It tastes very good. , Especially mutton slices." As he said, he gave a thumbs up to the waiter who was serving the side dishes, "Nice, awesome!"

   The waitress was a little puzzled, and then began to sigh, and replied: "Three grams of oil!"

  Larry Page replied in Chinese: "No thanks."

   Andy Rubin asked: "What does it mean to be awesome?"

  Larry Page explained: "Niubi means Very good in Chinese."

   "Oh." Andy Rubin suddenly realized, and followed it several times, and was happy that he had learned a Chinese vocabulary.

   Li Xiaofeng couldn't help but interject: "Mr. Page, who did you learn Chinese from?"

  Larry Page said: "The administrator of an Internet cafe in Shenghai."

   "That network manager is really awesome!" Li Xiaofeng sighed sincerely.

Larry Page said: "At the time, Sergey and I came to China to talk about angel investment. We got lost when we went shopping, so we entered an Internet cafe and contacted Song via email. China Net The atmosphere of the cafe is great, which reminds me of the small game halls in the United States in the 90s."

   "Invest in Google?" Li Xiaofeng asked.

   "Yes, an investment that makes people happy and sad," Larry Page said, "Song wants too many shares, and now I regret it a bit."

   "咚咚咚!"

   The waiter knocked on the door of the private room, then pushed in and said with a smile: "Please, please!"

   Song Weiyang and Shen Si walked in, Larry Page immediately got up to greet them, and the two opened their arms to greet them with a bear hug.

  Larry Page introduced: "This is Andy Rubin, the developer of Android, and the vice president of Google's engineering department."

   "Hello, Rubin." Song Weiyang shook hands.

   "Hello, Mr. Song." Andy Rubin greeted him.

   Everyone is seated, and the hot pot starts to boil.

   Larry Page talked about the current situation, and then went straight to the subject: "Song, are you planning to make a smartphone?"

   "Yes." Song Weiyang nodded and said.

   Larry Page said: "Google intends to optimize the Android system, better than all current mobile phone systems in terms of performance, and then use open source to attract customers! How is China doing?"

   "The Android system has been basically mobile, but there are still some deficiencies, and the optimization design is in progress." Song Weiyang said.

   Andy Rubin said: "I want to get in touch. If China does a good job here, the U.S. will directly adopt it. If China needs help, I can ask the team at headquarters to come and help."

   Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Of course."

   It seems that Apple’s project leak is not serious. Google also plans to adopt a full keyboard design. It doesn’t even know that Apple has abandoned the keyboard.

   Andy Rubin belongs to the super technology control, and he worked for Apple in his early years.

   Don’t talk about 996 blessings, don’t say that Huawei is a prison factory, and Apple’s R&D department is the same. Andy Rubin eats and lives in the office 24 hours a day and develops a smart phone system for Apple. Unfortunately, it was only in 1995 that the concept of smart phones was too advanced and was directly sentenced to death by the market.

   Later, Andy Rubin joined Microsoft again, built a walking robot, installed a camera and microphone, and wandered around within Microsoft. As a result, the robot was hacked, and the Microsoft security team was so scared that Andy Rubin got out of Microsoft.

   At the beginning of the 21st century, the world’s most popular smartphone sidekick was developed by Andy Rubin. But this kind of popularity only exists among the rich, young, and cool consumers. To put it bluntly, it is a **** that sells expensively. The market is very niche, Andy Rubin Forced to leave again.

   In the middle of the journey, Andy Rubin went to develop a digital camera again, but also ended in failure.

   In another time and space, after the Android system became popular, the media always said that Andy Rubin defined Android as a mobile phone system at the beginning of development, in order to realize his dream of a smart phone. In fact, this is half true. Perhaps Andy Rubin thought this way at first, but soon found that the system could not be sold. Even if the system architecture was converted to open source design, it could not be sold. So he simply switched to PDA ( Pocket PC) system.

   After eating hot pot, the two foreign devils rushed to Android (China) to visit.

   The Android system on the Chinese side does not adopt a tombstone design. It still uses the original Android architecture, but continues to be optimized.

   Andy Rubin didn’t take it seriously at first, but was shocked quickly: “How come the Android system has been shrunk so many times? What kind of mobile phones are you developing?”

   "Smartphone," Song Weiyang laughed, "A smart phone that can run multiple programs at the same time must have enough memory space, so the Android system must be reduced."

   Andy Rubin is a pioneer in the smartphone industry, and he has been doing this stuff since 1993. He suddenly became interested: "How do users operate multiple programs at the same time? Is it like a handheld computer?"

   "If you want to know the answer, you must sign a non-disclosure agreement." Song Weiyang said.

   Larry Page asked: "Do I have to sign too?"

   Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Of course, you can also choose to avoid it."

   After the two signed a confidentiality agreement, someone soon brought a semi-finished product.

   is mainly because the screen glass, multi-touch design, and Android programming still have defects, so it can only be called a semi-finished product. There are many such semi-finished products on Apple's side. They belong to Jobs. Every time he gets a new toy, he will be furious and curse everywhere, catching his dissatisfaction, and forcing developers to continue to optimize.

   "No keyboard? Where is the start button?" Larry Page asked.

   Song Weiyang held down the button on the side of the fuselage, then opened a piece of software and said: "Try it, this is a small game designed by ourselves."

fruit Ninja.

   Brush, brush, brush!

   Andy Rubin caught the banana watermelon durian and slashed it, and then asked: "Is the home button here to return to the main menu?"

   "Yes," Song Weiyang said, "You can slide directly from the edge of the screen."

   Andy Rubin first tried side sliding, and a Chinese dialog box popped up, and Song Weiyang directed him to click OK to return.

   After trying all the functions of this phone, Andy Rubin praised: "Cool, so cool! This is the smartphone of my dreams! Song, the guy who designed this phone is a genius!"

  Larry Page watched the whole process, shrugging his shoulders and said: "Fortunately, Google has no plans to make a mobile phone, otherwise you will definitely be defeated."

   Song Weiyang said: "We are optimizing the Android system, and there are still many small problems."

   "Perhaps, I can come and help." Andy Rubin offered to ask.

   Song Weiyang said: "Of course, I will offer you a high salary, but the shareholding of Android (China) will not change."

   Larry Page frowned and said, "Who owns this Android system patent?"

   Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Leave it to the legal staff to discuss it."

   Android and Android (China) have no affiliation, but the Android system (smartphone version) is based on the Android architecture and re-developed independently by Chinese programmers. Moreover, whether it is Android or Android (China), Song Weiyang holds more shares, and Google has no advantage here.

   However, because Song Weiyang belongs to the technical novice, he knew that people would buy Android, but he forgot to buy other companies. For example, skia company was acquired by Google, and the Android system uses skia graphics software.

  The more complex modern equipment is, the more patents are involved.

   For example, Microsoft has a large number of patents for the Android system. Because of their profound background, latecomers simply cannot avoid it. In the future, China’s smartphones will be launched on the market. Even if they use a self-developed system, you will have to pay Microsoft a few dollars in patent fees for every cell phone sold.

   So in another time and space, before Google came out to sue the manufacturers for infringement, Microsoft sued companies that infringed on Android patents. Without knowing it, I thought that Android was acquired by Microsoft.

  Huawei's Hongmeng system is certainly not able to bypass Microsoft patents, but you can wait for the patents to expire, because many patents are very old.

  Larry Page is coming to China this time, it is impossible to just come to visit Android (China) company, he has other things to do.

   But after seeing the China smartphone, this guy immediately proposed to merge Android and Android (China), turning Android (China) from a joint venture company of Android into a branch or wholly-owned subsidiary of Android.

   Song Weiyang categorically refused. Google just be a shareholder in the future, and by the way, it can cooperate with the promotion of Android.

   Larry Page suddenly felt a little regretful, but it was too late to regret it. He can guess that China's smart phone market has a bright future, and the Android system is extremely promising. For the benefit of Google, he can only cooperate with the promotion of the Android system in the future, which is a typical example of a thief.

But Andy Rubin didn’t have that much trouble. He took the initiative to put down his work in the United States and came to China to guide the optimization of the Android system~www.wuxiamtl.com~ He didn’t even bother to ask about his salary, which made the optimization progress of Android greatly. accelerate.

   Knowing that it was Song Weiyang’s smart phone concept, Andy Rubin also saw Song Weiyang particularly pleasing to his eyes. He called Song Weiyang to discuss the future technology every few days.

   Well, this guy’s ideal is to build intelligent robots. Android got its name from "Blade Runner".

   By the end of the year, the optimization of the Android system came to an end, and Andy Rubin flew to Shenghai Song Weiyang's home as a guest. As soon as he entered the door, he complained that Song Weiyang's villa was too low, patted his chest and said, "Song, let me help your villa make a major renovation."

   "How to reform?" Song Weiyang asked.

Andy Rubin said: “The door of the villa uses a voice control system to record a fixed sound for recognition. The living room door uses retina recognition, and it can be opened automatically without a key. Also, your home theater system is too backward, I The set at home automatically turns off the lights at the beginning of the movie, and turns on again at the end of the movie. I also have a laser-controlled balance scooter at home. I will also get you a set. Your son will love it."

   Song Weiyang smiled bitterly: "Forget it. Since you like science fiction, then I will give you a car. The latest Tesla, pure electric sports car, various smart designs."

   Andy Rubin has since become the first man in the United States to drive a Tesla. He drove out for a drive every few hours, but he didn't dare to drive to work.

   Because of Google’s vice president of engineering, Wayne Rosing, once waved a baseball bat at the company and said: “If anyone drives a car that is more dazzling than the BMW 3 Series, I will use a baseball bat to smash it!”
