This large MPV with a Zhuhai license plate was speeding on the highway leading to Yangcheng.

The driver's cab and passenger compartment are almost completely independent.

Fang Nian and Lei Zhe sat opposite each other.

At a certain moment, the air suddenly became quiet.

Lei Zhe had no expression on his face because the thoughts in his mind were a little confused.

I muttered in my heart: "If this is ideal..."

When it comes to starting a business, don’t be afraid of dreams or ideals.

Because the word "dream" is very interesting. To borrow a sentence from San Mao: Dreams can be as colorful as the sky.

Lei Zhe and Fang Nian have similar angel investment ideas. They both believe that entrepreneurship is a process of sharing 100% of your dreams.

To paraphrase this sentence, it is: Dreams can be wildly fanciful, they can be unrealistic, and they can be given up as time goes by because they are out of reach.

In the process of starting a business, it can be making money, going public, etc.

At least in real life, almost no one has realized their entrepreneurial dream.

However, an ideal is a bumpy road that must be walked step by step, and it is something that really needs to be achieved.

"Mr. Fang, can you tell me more specifically?" With a lot of thoughts in his mind, Lei Zhen finally asked calmly.

Facing Lei Zhe's gaze, Fang Nian smiled and said, "Mr. Huang asked me today why he wanted to reinvent the wheel."

"I think I know how comfortable it is to do Android in-depth user interface design customization."

Lei Zhen was convinced: "To be honest, I really doubt that you have taken professional courses such as computing science, human-computer interaction, and artificial intelligence."

"Actually, the truth is very simple, and the ideal is also very simple. I hope there can be standards defined by China itself." Fang Qingnian said elegantly.

After a pause, Fang Nian added: "In other words, I hope to make more money."

Lei Zhe thought for a while and retorted: "Android is free. After deeply customizing the user interface, it is difficult to even see what Android looks like. It doesn't seem to affect it."

"What if one day, Google suddenly wants to charge licensing fees, and it is charged on a per-device basis?" Fang Nian asked rhetorically.

With that said, Fang Nian looked at Lei Zhe and said with a faint smile: "Mr. Lei, haven't you understood why Android should be free, follow open source rules, and allow any manufacturer to carry out in-depth customization and commercialization?"

Lei Zhe sighed: "This is why I agreed with Mr. Fang's point of view in the first place."

Then he said: "Apple's iPhoneOS and Google's Android are actually only operating systems launched in 2007. Compared with the deep roots of Windows and macOS, they are not worth mentioning at all;

But the current development trend will soon establish a user ecosystem. Apple relies on its many years of brand power, while Android is more or less free and deeply customized."

Fang Nian said: “If you look at the Chinese market independently, whether Apple or Android, their influence is very limited and far inferior to Nokia;

It’s not that difficult to establish a relatively independent ecosystem.”

Then Fang Nian said casually: "The experience of being completely controlled by others in the PC era, why must it continue to the mobile Internet era?"

"..."

Lei Zhe expressed his agreement: "No matter what, if you enter the industry and you have this opportunity, you should really try and work hard."

There was silence in the carriage for a moment.

Lei Zhe looked at Fang Nian and spoke again: "Mr. Fang just seemed to be talking about comprehensive development?"

"Otherwise, why would I say that I am an idealist?" Fang Nian laughed happily.

"Mr. Lei, if you have nothing to do, why don't you play a quick question and answer game with me?"

Lei Zhe had at least a million thoughts in his mind when he heard these words and subconsciously agreed.

Fang Nian asked Lei Zhe one question after another in a nonchalant tone.

Lei Zhe answered subconsciously.

“Is it difficult to develop a system?”

"It's not difficult, it's an assignment you'll encounter in an undergraduate degree in computing science."

"Xiaomi has now developed a draft of the system. Is the progress going well?"

“Actually it’s not bad.”

"Is my graffiti work useful?"

"Quite useful."

"From the hardware surface and the deepest software, is it about to redefine a unique set of domestic standards?"

"almost."

"It is not difficult to establish a preliminary ecosystem."

"really."

Finally, Fang Nian asked a meaningful question.

"So, Mr. Lei, if you think about it carefully, what is still missing for the comprehensive development of smartphones?"

After Lei Zhe answered a series of questions subconsciously, he suddenly paused.

The chaotic thoughts in my mind gradually became clear.

Then he almost said to himself: "Take Apple's iPhone as an example. The reason why it can be called a smartphone must have an excellent operating system, excellent industrial design, and excellent hardware.

Excluding the operating system and industrial design, all that is left is hardware, and the core thing in the hardware is the chip."

Having said this, Lei Zhe stared at Fang Nian: "Mr. Fang, you don't know how to do that, right?"

"Loongson has been working on it for many, many, many years, but it is still difficult to apply to the field of home computers. Not only that, other types of processors and chip research and development companies in China have not entered the core field for so many years..."

"this!"

"Aren't you too idealistic?"

Facing Lei Zhe's staring gaze, Fang Nian raised the corner of his mouth and said word by word: "I never said I wanted to get involved in the PC field."

"When it comes to mobile phone chips, there are quite a few choices internationally. There are Samsung, MediaTek, Texas Instruments, Qualcomm and so on. Every family has some patents, and it's not easy to make them." Lei Zhe said subconsciously.

Then he added: "The main reason is that this thing costs a lot of money, and it may not necessarily perform well if it is made. If it cannot be made, it may easily cost billions of dollars. I remember that several domestic chip manufacturers failed to develop the national technology."

Before 3g license.”

"But there is another solution, which is to obtain a public version license from ARM. It is not that complicated to do, but it seems that ARM never licenses it to Chinese companies."

After hearing that Lei Zhen was talking about his family treasures, Fang Nian shouted: "Mr. Lei has a very comprehensive understanding."

"But Mr. Lei has misunderstood the word ideal."

Hearing this, thoughts swirled in Lei Zhe's mind, and then he was shocked: "No way!"

"Why don't you even dare to think about it?" Fang Nian smiled.

"When the 4G standard has not yet been determined, it is actually too early to talk about the mobile Internet era, and the mobile experience is not that good;

Therefore, it is not a dream to realize some ideals belonging to the mobile Internet at this time."

Lei Zhe: "..."

He thought about it carefully: "If you say that, it makes sense."

Fang Nian asked calmly: "Mr. Lei is a senior in the field of computing science. I believe Mr. Lei should know that it is not difficult to design a processor."

"It is indeed not difficult. Generally speaking, universities with relatively strong computing science majors will have similar theoretical homework questions at the undergraduate level." Lei Zhe said.

"But this does not mean that this CPU can be put into use."

Fang Nian nodded in agreement: "I think Mr. Lei also knows that I am not the so-called genius who made 75 μm lithography equivalent to the level of a laser printer and just said that he hand-made a 75,000 nanometer-level lithography machine."

"Designing a brand new CPU involves a large industry chain and a large user ecosystem, but Mr. Lei still simplifies the word ideal."

Lei Zhe: "..."

"If you want to redefine the standard, what you have to do is not just develop a CPU that is licensed by the public version, but you have to re-develop a new instruction set, develop a microarchitecture to bypass all patents, and develop a specialized compiler to

Programs developed by software development engineers are compiled into machine language."

Fang Nian said with his fingers.

"In other words, my ideal is to almost completely reinvent the wheel, so that I can surf the mobile Internet era unscrupulously as I expected."

Of course Fang Nian would not say that ten years later, the Kirin series smartphone chips that Youwei had worked hard to develop for many years ended up inexplicably becoming a Schrödinger chip due to the use of ARM licensing and other factors.

It is decided by personal will, between usable and unusable.

Fang Nian would not say that he mentioned that he wanted to recruit Youwei to join the alliance because of Youwei’s accumulated skills over the years.

Fang Nian would not even say how old he is ideally.

Lei Zhe was silent for a long time.

The car became quiet.

Fang Nian even looked at the scenery outside the window with interest.

After a long time, Lei Zhe said: "Mr. Fang, your ideal is beyond the limit of my imagination."
