Chapter 245 The strength of one version a day(1/2)

The direction of business competition based on the Internet can sometimes be particularly strange.

In the information age, many businesses will be affected by the Internet.

Li Ze expected that Yu Dadong would end quickly, and also had a hunch that some other domestic mobile phone manufacturers would not let go of this opportunity to use their selling points, but he did not expect the follow-up.

He knows that with the current global division of labor and cooperation model, if a mobile phone is completely stripped of its software layer, including the system, there will be very little room for value and competition.

There is a term called software added value.

This is currently one of the most important selling points of domestic mobile phone manufacturers in the smartphone industry, so they have to give up.

And specifically in the mobile phone industry, there are too many examples of software added value.

For example, Mi UI to Mi series.

For example, Google, which owns Android, makes Android a lot of money even though it is free and open source, but it requires Android in the international market to come with the GMS suite.

Speaking of Google, it has established a Nexus mobile phone brand, and only released a tablet as a token, and other models are co-branded with mobile phone manufacturers.

In the end, the brand did not survive.

Because if you remove the added value of the software and don't master the core hardware, then the game will be very difficult and almost all hand-to-hand combat.

Google has no idea of ​​developing core hardware, and it has Android + GMS, so it is too lazy to earn hard-earned money.

After Bolang officially entered the mobile phone business, Li Ze's views became more accurate after in-depth research on the industry.

Therefore, he greatly admired Wen Liang's decisive plan at the beginning of the year, asking Zhang Yulin and Qin Zheng to study a core respectively.

If Bolang only develops the system based on Android instead of developing the system from scratch, how it develops at the software level will end up being the same as the current situation.

If Bolang doesn't work hard to research the processing chip, one of the core hardware of mobile phones, it will be very difficult to develop like Google.

Moreover, there is an open source and ecologically sound Android system, and the living space of the Star system alone is also very narrow.

Li Ze could see these clearly from Bolang's platform.

Speaking of which, Wen Liang admires Li Ze's views on the mobile phone business. This thing is not reborn, but it can analyze so much.

Because all of Li Ze's analysis has gradually become a reality since about 2016.

If it hadn't reached the stage where it was necessary to fight hand-to-hand, how could the two sub-brands of OV have such a strategy of setting prices at a lower price.

Consumers are completely disappointed with Touch V, paying for Juchang's high-end series, and choosing Apple after all the detours. This is another clear evidence.

In short, although Li Ze's analysis was relatively accurate, he could not imagine that with the intervention of various forces and the shady netizens fanning the flames, the situation would be so complicated.

Therefore, Li Ze could only dynamically adjust various aspects of planning.

In so many competitions in the past, Wen Liang was able to command Ruo Ding as easily as he could. It was not for nothing. Mr. Ze still learned a few tricks.

Soon, Li Ze initiated a conference call to formally finalize the launch of the Star System, and also arranged for important members of each sub-project development team to be online around the clock, and necessary positions to work overtime depending on the situation.

After the conference call was connected, Li Ze got straight to the point: "Gong Zhang, Yang, everyone, I need to determine one thing. With our current development resources, can we ensure that we can iterate a small version every day based on bug feedback?"

Zhang Yulin was the first to answer: "Yes, the laboratory has adjusted the development process, and there are five teams responsible for the same sub-project."

"There is no problem with the graphical interface." Yang Xingshan followed, "We have sufficient development resources here."

"We have no problem here either."

Therefore, Li Ze made a decision directly: "The situation caused by the launch of the first version of the system is extremely complicated. We need a more flexible response to seize the opportunities. The current plan is to update the version every day to solve key vulnerabilities."

"Make full use of the popularity of public opinion and strive to expand the test group to millions."

After saying this, Li Ze turned to say: "Boss, you are under the greatest pressure and need any support to communicate at any time. We have to race against time to complete the prerequisites for developing the application ecosystem."

Sun Baoyin responded calmly: "Don't worry."

Finally, Li Ze said in a calm and sincere tone: "It was not Mr. Wen's idea to launch the system this time. He did everything he could. Now it seems that he is a little anxious. It is my problem. But there is no turning back. I hope everyone can work together."

Work together!”

"Don't worry, Mr. Ze!"

"must!"

"..."

It was Wen Liang who finally finalized the matter. Even if we have already seen the bad results, let alone starting now, everyone will still work hard.

This is the leadership charisma Wen Liang has established at Bolang.

…………

After receiving the confidence from the development team, Li Ze arranged various matters non-stop.

Speaking of which, the reason why the development team is so confident is thanks to the multi-group and multi-generation R&D model established during the first large-scale expansion.

It almost ensures that the development team can support the company's business needs under various circumstances.

Soon, the Sta Forum issued a special announcement, and administrators of the Sta Forum's FAQ and various online discussion groups forwarded the announcement at the same time.

The general content is:

"Thank you very much for your support to the Xingchen system. Considering the many problems existing in the Xingchen system, the Xingchen system will update a version every day for the next thirty days. Each update will solve all the loopholes reported before 24:00 on the previous day and optimize

Experience!

Bug feedback submitted the day before will be verified before 18:00 the next day, and vulnerability subsidies will be issued."

“We believe that with the support of all enthusiasts, the Star System will definitely become the most popular system and will provide the best gaming experience!

Our goal is to become a mobile phone system that can play games smoothly and solve the problem of mobile phone fever at the system level!

Made to not have a fever!”

This is a long announcement.

Of course it is also a letter of challenge.

The administrators of online discussion groups in various forums patiently stated Xingchen Studio's attitude: "The content of the announcement is our commitment, and we only want to let everyone experience the best human-computer interaction!"

"Don't worry, everyone, all problems will be solved!"

Group member: "One version per day, I can only say it's awesome. I'm looking forward to the future of Xingchen System."

"I'm looking forward to tomorrow when we can participate in person."

"..."

Compared with the atmosphere of the discussion group, the opinions of forum visitors are much more confusing.

The FAQ is almost overwhelmed.

"May I ask, where does your confidence come from?"

"One version per day. To be honest, if it can be done, I will be able to compare it with Mi UI in a few months."

"If you are a fan of UI, you only dare to say that there is one version per week. Why do you think so?"

FAQ: "Please trust our capabilities."

"I'm curious, where does your Xingchen Studio get its resources? Every time you make something bigger, it becomes bigger and bigger."

"Yes, we can still convince Bolang, isn't it owned by Bolang?"

"Oh?"

FAQ: "Xingchen Studio is an independent system research and development studio, at least for now. We are not sure about the future. Our resources come from our confidence in the Xingchen system."

"..."

Announcement that this wave of discussion, under Li Ze’s intentional control, is currently only concentrated on the Sta forum.

It didn’t let the popularity explode directly on other social media platforms.

………

At 4:20 pm, the verified internal version O0.41 was uploaded to the system update server.

What was released to the outside world yesterday was O0.39, and today it has become O0.41, that is, two versions were iterated in the middle.

This is the confidence given by Zhang Yulin and Yang Xingshan.

The development team iterated much faster than expected. Although the multi-group and multi-generation R&D model was extremely wasteful of resources at the beginning, it later became extremely efficient.

The externally displayed version of O0.41 is in [Settings] → [About This Machine]. There is a column [Software Version]: Xingchen 0.11 (0922P4).

The front is the popular version number, followed by the date and time.

Before Bolang officially releases the mobile phone, the popular version number will always start with '0.', and '1' will be reserved for the press conference. At the same time, after the official release of the mobile phone, the word 'Xingchen' will only be displayed in the [Software Update] column.

middle.

Subsequently, the internal O0.41 version began to be updated in various forms.

The first one is for 1,000 experience volunteers. Their systems will be automatically hot updated if they are not canceled after being prompted.

The second one is for all enthusiasts who have already flashed their phones to the Star system. They will be prompted to update and will be automatically hot-updated after agreeing.

The third is to post it to all flashing enthusiast forums including the Sta forum.

This updated version does not add compatible models.
