Chapter 653 Google Mobile System

When Barron woke up, he gently moved the arm that was pressing on his chest away, but he did not wake up the Countess beside him...

After all, she was indeed quite tired last night.

On his other side, Bonnie was also sleeping soundly.

Walking out of the bedroom, Barron changed into sportswear, and the bodyguards were waiting in the hall downstairs.

It must be said that in Grace Lavender Manor, the air is filled with the scent of lavender. Morning jogging in such an environment is indeed refreshing.

Yesterday, Ferran O'Neill had already left Australia - on the second day of the yacht carnival, Ferran O'Neill, who had just woken up from drunkenness, accepted Barron's new task. He will take the team directly to Tokyo, and then work with those Wall Street representatives to formulate a plan to short Japan and South Korea.

It can be seen that Ferran is still very excited to start the action again.

After all, that process always reminds people of the sound of the printing press turning on.

However, Barron's good mood did not last long...

"Your Highness, there are two pieces of news from America..."

After taking the information handed over by Zhang Junning, Barron scanned it and frowned slightly.

Neither of the two pieces of news was good news, and they happened almost on the same day.

First, Nvidia has confirmed the latest financing plan, but the participants in this financing plan are not what Barron hoped for. The fund under DS Group will be the main investor - they only get a relatively small share.

Vanguard Group, BlackRock Group and Fidelity Investments account for 80% of Nvidia's additional shares this time, leaving only 20% of the additional shares for DS Group.

In addition, yesterday, Google officially launched its mobile operating system Google OS (GOS), and they announced at the press conference that the members of the GOS Alliance include Motorola, Samsung and LG, which means that these mobile phone manufacturers will launch smartphones based on the GOS system this year.

Of course, this does not mean that mobile phone manufacturers such as Motorola, Samsung and LG will give up Android phones, but it is obvious that they have chosen to stand on both sides.

Previously, Google also invited Honor Electronics, but was rejected by Honor Electronics. It can be said that as the first manufacturer to launch a smartphone equipped with the Android system, if it can be pulled into the GOS camp, Google is still very much looking forward to it.

In any case, the emergence of the GOS system is not a good thing for Android companies. After all, it is obvious that the GOS system divides the market share of the Android system, while for Apple, the impact is relatively much smaller.

After all, Apple's iOS system is unique to it. Users who choose to buy iPhone phones will naturally use the iOS system. On the contrary, after mobile phone manufacturers such as Motorola, Samsung and LG launch mobile phones equipped with the GOS system, they will divert Android users.

"We are already analyzing the GOS system. If they step on our patents, we will immediately initiate a lawsuit..."

Ivanta said on the phone.

This is indeed the strategy that Android will first respond to. For example, iOS and Android systems have registered many patents for their own operating systems. As a latecomer, GOS system needs to find a way to bypass these patents.

I am afraid this is also the reason why the release of GOS system was delayed from the original plan - Google's GOS operating system was originally expected to be launched before December last year, and now it has been delayed for more than two months than they expected.

But now that they can release it, I am afraid it will not be so easy to check and balance it in this regard. After all, the other party must have solved this problem before.

In other words, even if there are suspected patent traps, it will not be too serious, and Google is not afraid of being sued for this.

Anyway, this kind of specious lawsuit can last for a long time, but it will help them "touch porcelain" Android system and increase the popularity of their own GOS system.

"In addition to this, Android is also stepping up the testing of the new version, and it is expected that the 2.0 version of the Android system will be launched next month."

Barron is also concerned about the development of the new version of the Android system.

In the upcoming 2.0 version named Froyo (frozen yogurt), the Android system will part ways with the mainstream Linux development, thus starting its independent development route, and there will be milestone changes in operation and functions.

This is indeed a correct way to fight against the GOS system. After all, the iOS system and the Android system have opened the era of touch-screen smartphones, and these users have also formed habits in the process of using these two systems.

This usage habit is inertial, just like later, whether some IPhone users switch to Android phones, or Android phone users switch to IPhone phones, they all need a period of adaptation. This discomfort is also the reason why many users have always remained in the IPhone camp or the Android camp.

It can be said that although Google's GOS system was launched nearly two years later than the other two, it is not too late, otherwise current smartphone users will inevitably have a greater "resistance" to the GOS system...

But after the sharp increase in smartphone sales last year, at least a considerable number of users have become accustomed to the operation methods of the iOS and Android systems. The GOS system will inevitably refer to the operation methods of the two systems, but due to some patents, there are definitely differences between them.

Then what the Android system needs to do is to increase the barriers between each other through continuous updates and iterations, so as to make its own users more reliable.

And after all, the Android system is a pioneer, and it has an advantage over the GOS system in terms of user habit formation.

Of course, Honor Electronics has played a huge role in this part of the advantage.

Speaking of Honor Electronics, the two mobile phones Mate 2 and Mate 2S, which were just launched last year, have a total sales volume of more than 20 million units so far, which has also made Honor Electronics a well-known mobile phone manufacturer in the world.

Of course, in terms of sales, Honor Electronics and Apple are still no match for traditional manufacturers such as Nokia, Motorola and Samsung. Even in last year's North American mobile phone sales ranking, Apple and Honor Electronics did not enter the top five - the top five were Motorola, Samsung, LG, Nokia and BlackBerry.

However, the sales of these traditional mobile phone manufacturers are still mainly feature phones and non-touch-screen smartphones.

In terms of touch-screen smartphones, Apple and Honor Electronics are ranked in the first group.

Therefore, in the final analysis, it is only a matter of time for these two companies to become the new mobile phone overlords in the future - the premise is that Honor Electronics should not fall behind in this process.

For this reason, Honor Electronics has reinvested most of its profits in research and development, expanding production scale and maintaining product quality system control, in order to maintain its current leading position in touch-screen smartphones.

In two months, Honor Electronics will also launch the latest Mate 3 mobile phone. Compared with previous mobile phone models, Mate 3 has not only been upgraded in terms of functions, but also will give consumers more choices in terms of memory and color.
