Chapter 143 President Zhou's Ambition
Zhou Xiao was browsing Weibo in the office to view topics about Xiaoyuan's voice assistant, mainly to view some user feedback and suggestions.
In short, Xiaoyuan's voice assistant and wireless headphones have become the standard for many users' work and life.
What made Zhou Xiao the most speechless was that the surge in downloads of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant actually made the wireless headphone market popular.
This popularity is directly reflected in the stock price of A-shares. It is similar to the stocks of wireless headphone companies such as Kuaibuzhe and Songzhe Co., Ltd., which have been on the board for several consecutive days.
Zhou Xiao stared at the crazy stock price and felt that he was a little loss.
The launch of products from your own company actually benefits the stock prices of other companies, and there is no one else!
Zhou Xiao is also short of funds, and other companies over there are making a lot of money.
When the time is ripe, Zhou Xiao is also preparing to let Anyang go public. As a financial tool, it is the best way to get a subsidiary to go public.
Ma Xin got Xiaomi and Zhang Zhou’s cooperation agreement.
Xiaomi's artificial intelligence department hopes to learn from Xiaoyuan's voice assistant's technology from Xiaoai voice assistant.
Xiao Mi did not directly acquire Xiaoyuan's voice assistant, but invested in the source code company.
The first round of investment is no less than 500 million meters, and an artificial intelligence laboratory was established with the source code company. The laboratories each account for half of the shares. The content of the experiment is optimization and experiment voice assistants and artificial intelligence.
The testing platform is Xiaomi's mobile phone.
Xiao Mi is much smarter than Warwick. She hopes to jointly establish a new laboratory with Origin Technology to develop more advanced voice assistants.
With more advanced reason assistants, Xiaoyuan's voice assistant must have to stand aside.
The establishment of a new laboratory will surely be a potential company. If artificial intelligence based on voice platforms is successful in the future, Xiao Mi's 500 million-meter knife may double or even triple.
Both Warwick and Xiao Mi made Ma Xin's heart beat wildly.
A few months ago, the company was still worried about tens of millions, but in the past few months, two companies sent money.
The 500 million-meter knife is not a small number.
If Zhou Xiao had no ambitions, he could sell the source code company and take the money and leave, and he would not have to worry about the rest of his life.
So the choice is still with Zhou Xiao.
Zhou Xiao put down his cell phone and asked Ma Xin: "Brother Xin, what about your opinion?"
Ma Xin pondered for a moment and analyzed: "The download volume of Xiaoyuan's voice assistant is still breaking through new highs. It is a matter of time before becoming the standard configuration of Android phones. It depends on the positioning of the source code company. I personally think that voice assistant can become a part of the future mobile phone ecosystem."
Zhou Xiao fully agrees with Ma Xin's point of view.
"Mobile phones are just tools, a medium, and users get what they want through their mobile phones and achieve their goals."
Although Zhou Xiao is an amateur in programming, he is a qualified user.
From the user's perspective, you can see many problems that developers cannot see.
Zhou Xiao said: "Except for monopoly applications such as games and social networking, other applications are actually substitutable. For example, whether we use whiteness maps or Degao maps, what we want is to reach our destination. Whether we use Meituan or Ele.me, the purpose is to order food with reasonable prices.
In the past, consumers chose what kind of applications we use to achieve their goals through the accumulation of time, experience and word of mouth. Now they can be handed over to Xiaoyuan Assistant. My idea is that in the future, users can weaken the choice of various APPs and allow APPs to provide services. However, this service is integrated in a smart scenario with voice assistant as the platform, rather than a separate app. I hope to use voice assistant as the basis to open up the boundaries between various APPs."
This is Zhou Xiao's ambition, and it really shocked Ma Xin.
Only by achieving Zhou Xiao's goal can a smartphone be truly considered as the word "smart".
Zhou Xiao also added: "I also think that neither Android nor Apple's IOS is enough to support us in completing such HTC's plan. We may need to develop our own mobile phone system."
In theory, Android or IOS can support Zhou Xiao's ideas, but interests do not allow them.
The base camp is in the United States, Android and IOS, and its purpose is to monopolize the mobile phone ecological chain. They are absolutely impossible and unwilling to have the entrances and exits of the ecological chain in the hands of the people of Xia.
Zhou Xiao said: "The cooperation agreement provided by Warwick and Xiao Mi to us is very good. I can get a lot of cash flow in a short period of time. But Warwick wanted to eat us in one go, and Xiao Mi wanted to raise us as laying eggs, so that we could keep laying eggs for Xiao Mi and not laying eggs for other users. No matter what, both companies regard us as chickens."
Ma Xin was amused by Zhou Xiao's metaphor, but what Zhou Xiao said was true. When Warwick and Xiao Mi gave an agreement, they did not put the source code company on an equal position, but instead took a condescending attitude.
Both companies seem to be saying to the source code company now: "Hi! Boy, I have a crush on you. Now I will give you a chance to let you hang out with me and have something to eat with me!"
This feeling made Zhou Xiao feel very uncomfortable.
Zhou Xiao said to Ma Xin the first document: "Let Chen Ya spread the news."
Ma Xin was shocked when he looked at the contents on the file!
"This...is it true or false!"
The content of the document can be said to force Xiao Mi and Warwick to the dead end.
The document is a cooperation agreement given by another Xiaguo Mobile Company, named Chuanying Holdings Co., Ltd.
Chuanying also makes mobile phones, but the mobile phone market is not in the mainland but in Africa.
This company that many people have never heard of is the number one mobile phone sales and number one user in Africa, beating Apple, Samsung and Warwick is a veritable African king.
The reason why Chuanying Mobile gave up the Xia Kingdom market is because the Xia Kingdom's mobile phone market has long become a red ocean. If you don't have excellent technology and enough creativity, you will have a dead end.
High-end mobile phones include Apple, Warwick, mid-range phones include Xiao Mi, Blue and Green Factory, etc. Now, when coming to Xia Kingdom, it is fate that they are surrounded and suppressed.
Ma Xin looked at the words on the agreement and was very upset!
The agreement states that Chuanying Company intends to establish a mainland company in Xiaguo and enter the mainland market in Xiaguo. The mainland company is formed by Chuanying and the source code company in cooperation with the shares of four to six, and the source code company accounts for 40%.
Among them, Chuanying is responsible for the manufacturing of mobile phones, and the source code company is responsible for using native Android systems to integrate into Xiaoyuan's voice assistant to develop a new mobile phone system!
This is an invincible combination!
Most of the current mobile phone manufacturing companies are assembly companies. Chuanying already has its own mobile phone production and manufacturing chain. It can purchase chips from Qualcomm and Liankefa, memory from Samsung and SK Hynix, screens from BOE, Samsung and other companies, batteries from Bidi, etc., and find several OEM companies to make molds, and the mobile phone will be produced.
Nowadays, Xiao Mi, Blue Factory, Green Factory, OnePlus and the Hammer before did this.
It doesn’t matter if your phone doesn’t have its own system. It’s easier to learn OnePlus and use the native Android system.
If the native Android system has built-in Xiaoyuan voice assistant, the future sales can be imagined.
Ma Xin of course knew about Chuanying Company. He said: "The reason why Chuanying did not enter the mainland market is because it is well aware that its competitiveness is not enough. If we cooperate with us, it has built-in Xiaoyuan voice assistant, and other mobile phone manufacturers cannot use Xiaoyuan voice assistant... Terrible competitiveness."
Ma Xin licked his lips. As long as consumers are not fools, they will have a high chance of buying a mobile phone that can be transmitted.
Chuanying's high-end mobile phones can be fully equipped with Qualcomm's flagship chips. The flagship new product of SLKF can also be used with Sony's cameras.
After assembling this way, how much difference is the performance of the Chuanying mobile phone from Xiao Mi and Warwick?
If the appearance is more clever and Xiaoyuan's voice assistant is more intelligent than all mobile phones!
The source code company has limited funds and strength, and it is currently not a mobile phone industry. However, Chuanying has made more than ten years of money in Africa and has enough capital and channels. He cooperates with the source code company, and the source code company will also jump from a small APP technology company to a mobile phone manufacturer and seller.
"Yes!" Zhou Xiao said: "Win win! And it's very good to imagine the market! This is a very hard work for Chuanying Mobile. Because they already have a complete mobile phone parts supply chain and OEM factory, they only need to design a mobile phone for domestic market to be sold in China, and even cost a lot. If the mobile phone can be sold, they will have more profits. They will grab the markets of Xiao Mi, Warwick and Apple. If the mobile phone cannot be sold, they can just sell these goods in Africa. The basic market of Africa is still in their hands."
Ma Xin couldn't help but curse: "Trouble! This is a smart person! What a thief! When Warwick and Xiao Mi fought hard, how could they know that there were cold arrows behind them?"
Zhou Xiao smiled and pointed to the contract and said, "This share can be discussed with Chuanying again. I think it is possible to talk about 55."
The domestic market is originally a 0-percentage share. In the future, cooperation with China Technology will make a profit if you can sell a mobile phone. If you divide it into 50% or 50% of the other party will definitely be willing to do so.
If Zhou Xiao plays this card, Warwick and Xiao Mi will definitely have a good reaction.
Zhou Xiao also wanted to tell Warwick and Xiao Mi that the source code company is not a laying hen or a broiler, but a chicken farm like them.
Ma Xin said vigorously: "I am going to let Chen Ya post the news right away."
Zhou Xiao thought for a while and said, "In this way, don't post the news for the time being. Wait for the opportunity, and don't reply to Warwick and Xiao Mi for the time being. I think there will be a more appropriate opportunity."
Warwick and Xiao Mi have been waiting for the source code company's reply, but the source code company has not heard back for a long time.
Chapter completed!
