Chapter 481 Xiaomi wants to buy Kunpeng 702 chip? (Please vote for me)(1/3)
"Xingyi Technology's 64-bit XOS system has been launched and can be logged into the mobile phone at any time. Apple's 64-bit system will be fully launched in September."
"We are continuing to develop the 32-bit Android 4.3, which will be released in the second half of the year. There will be a 32-bit Android 4.4 later, which will not be released until the end of the year. What's the point?"
An executive spoke first, and then someone stood up to support:
"It's too far behind and it's really meaningless. I suggest giving up the development of 32-bit Android 4.3 and Android 4.4 and turning to the development of 64-bit Android 5.0."
"I support it too."
But some people object:
"No, Android 5.0 hasn't started yet. Even if everyone goes to develop 5.0, it won't be ready in a short time!"
"That is, Android 5.0 is 64-bit, so it needs to be developed all over again. The workload is huge, and it may take a year and a half at the earliest. How can we not not update a single version in the next year and a half?"
"It is better not to update if you lag behind in updating. The best way is to concentrate on making 64-bit."
"What a fart! If we don't update it for a year and a half, the app vendors will think that we have outgrown Android and will abandon Android directly."
"That is, if application vendors and mobile phone manufacturers give up Android and choose the XOS system, it will be our tragedy!"
"Continuing to launch 32-bit Android 4.3 and Android 4.4 will show that we have no strength and are far behind Xingyi Technology and Apple."
…
Everyone said something to each other, but they didn't give in to each other.
Eric, the chairman of Google, had a headache and felt like his brain was going to explode:
"alright!"
"Shut up, everyone!"
After a roar, both sides became quiet.
Eric took a deep breath: "The opinions you both expressed are reasonable."
"The development of 64-bit Android 5.0 must be accelerated, but in the next year and a half, we will also have a new Android version."
"In this way, 20% of the people will be left to continue to develop Android 4.3, which will be released in July. At the same time, Android 4.4 in December will be abandoned. The remaining 80% of the people will all develop Android 5.0 and strive to launch it in March next year!"
"this……"
For a moment, the whole room became quiet.
"What? Is there a problem?" Eric said coldly.
"Chairman, take away 80% of the people at once, leaving only 20% to continue developing Android 4.3, which will not be released in July."
“Then October!”
"yes!"
"Chairman, even if 80% of the manpower is allocated to develop Android 5.0, it won't be ready by March next year. The preview version will have to be ready by the middle of next year at the earliest, and it will be officially launched by the end of next year."
"What!" Eric was furious, the rhythm was too slow.
Android 5.0 is officially launched, but it will take two years!
Too slow.
"Trash! The XOS system of Xingyi Technology has not been used for that long, right?" Eric said in a deep voice.
The subordinates were helpless: "Chairman, it is easier to start from scratch for Xingyi Technology's XOS system. We only need to develop the 64-bit version. Our Android 5.0 not only needs to re-develop the 64-bit version, but also has to be compatible with the 32-bit version. To work
The volume is much larger than that of the XOS system."
"More importantly, the XOS system has just started and has simple functions. It is mainly used in the Xiaguo market. However, our current Android 4.2 system is already very complicated and has many more functions than the XOS system. It also has to cater to the global market, which is very cumbersome.
, it’s several times more difficult than the XOS system!”
Eric understands, the tail is too big to fall off!
Today’s Android is too big to lose its tail!
The XOS system starts from the ground up and goes into battle lightly, as long as it meets the needs of Xia users, it's very simple.
The Android 5.0 system must be 64-bit and 32-bit compatible. It must also perfectly adapt all the functions of the current Android 4.2 version to the 5.0 version. It must also meet the different needs of different countries and regions around the world...
This is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
It is precisely because of this that Apple released the 64-bit IOS 7 in September 2013.
Android only released a preview version in July 2014, which is the PPT version. It was not until November that Android 5.0 was officially released!
Subsequently, after the release of Hongmeng distributed operating system, in addition to being used for mobile phones and tablets, it can also be used for TVs, cars, PCs, smart homes, wearable devices, and even servers.
But Android is not good, it is far behind. It also needs a virtual machine to run the program, and the performance is far behind.
Google knows that no matter how much it updates or upgrades, Android will become useless and cannot keep up with the performance of Hongmeng.
The bottom layer and technology of Android in the past few years have become obsolete after a few years of use. After 2020, they are somewhat out of step with the times.
As a result, Google also began to develop a new generation of system to replace Android, which is Fuchsia OS!
Compared with Android, Fuchsia OS is a huge improvement. The underlying architecture, technology, etc. are all epoch-making upgrades.
But unfortunately, Android cannot lose its tail because there are too many users.
Fuchsia OS needs to build an ecosystem from scratch and adapt it from scratch, just like pure-blood Hongmeng.
That's it.
App developers don’t want to increase costs so much, and major brands don’t want to pay for it either.
After all, everyone is proficient in playing the Android system, and no one is willing to build a new Fuchsia OS system, especially since the ecology of Fuchsia OS will not be affected.
Therefore, Fuchsia OS failed before it succeeded.
Five or six years after its launch, Google was left to its own devices and no one paid any attention to it.
None of them are developing as well as Hongmeng, and they are not as promising as Hongmeng.
The reason is that Android cannot lose its tail, and Fuchsia OS is still alive and dead.
It is conceivable that by around 2030, the Hongmeng ecosystem will be mature and in full swing.
And Android still uses the kernel and underlying technology from more than 20 years ago, so it can only be like Symbian, too backward and completely ruined.
This is exactly the same as Nokia in the past.
They all died because the tail was too big to fall off!
The emergence of the XOS system, which adopts brand-new technology, epoch-making underlying architecture and concepts, will only exacerbate the demise of Android.
But unfortunately, Eric cannot see this at the moment, and neither can Google.
It's just a limited vision.
They think that the XOS system is only more powerful than Android in 64-bit.
But I don’t know that 64-bit is only one aspect.
In fact, XOS's core, architecture, underlying technology, concepts, etc., all surpass Android by more than ten years.
In essence, the core technologies of XOS are products of the same era as Android's next-generation Fuchsia OS.
But Eric couldn't understand it, and still only paid attention to the 64-bit:
"Okay, then let's try our best to move forward, try our best to reach the third quarter of next year."
"yes!"
"Android 4.3 will continue to be released in September this year, and Android 5.0 will be released in the third quarter of next year! Alas!"
Eric sighed, feeling weak.
He was very angry. 32-bit was working well, but there was something wrong with Xingyi Technology. It had to go to 64-bit, and it was 60% better than Android!
If there is only one Xingyi Technology, that's it. XOS is a one-man show and its impact will be limited.
Android, Apple, and Microsoft are all following suit and maintaining 32-bit, so everyone is lagging behind, and that’s okay.
As a result, Apple turned around and stabbed it in the back. This year it will release IOS 7, which is also 64-bit!
Now Google is embarrassed.
Xingyi Technology and Apple are both 64-bit, and Android is still 32-bit, so that will definitely not work.
As a result, Android, which has developed rapidly, is completely passive.
In this regard, Qualcomm is gloating!
I just feel that system issues will not affect their chips.
Unexpectedly, the impact of this incident has only just begun.
HTC headquarters.
The marketing director approached Wang Hong with a sullen face:
"Chairman, the 64-bit incident has caused a lot of noise. Now many users have a soft spot for 64-bit processors, and even bluntly say that they only buy 64-bit processors when buying mobile phones, which has caused the sales of our HTC mobile phones to decline again."
"Only buy 64-bit processors?" Wang Hong became interested.
To be continued...
