700【Technology, people-oriented】
Song family, villa.
Go up from the spiral staircase in the living room, there is a large vacant area at the entrance of the staircase on the second floor. Now it is built into an indoor children's playground, with slides, swings, trampolines and other equipment. Liuliu occasionally takes his friends home to play together without fear of exposing his family background, because Liuliu reads "Song You".
Note that it is "Song You", without adding the word "International".
"Song Youth" is a public kindergarten with relatively low tuition fees. If you don't have any connections, you can't get in no matter how much tuition you pay.
"Song Youth (International)" is a private kindergarten with brand authorization and private business operations. The tuition fee is set to be expensive. It is also claimed that as long as you enter "Song Youth" (deliberately omitting the word "International"), the children will step into the upper class with half of their feet because the family of the classmates are very rich. Later, many children of wealthy and celebrities were sent to this kindergarten for training, and there are luxury cars at the school gate after school.
The former does almost nothing to promote, and only one school is not very large in scale. The latter has overwhelming publicity and branches all over the country, so the more students are recruiting more and more.
Comparing the two, the difference is right.
In addition, Song You's teacher is very competent and never accepts red envelopes or anything else. Parents do not give gifts to teachers during festivals, and teachers will not treat your children differently, because... teachers dare not, if they meet those low-key but deep-seated parents, they will be miserable.
Liuliu has already won at the starting line, and most of his kindergarten classmates are children of officials.
At this moment, Xiao Liuzi was climbing the slide, and he was playing with a young lady with a braid. He was Shen Fuxing's youngest daughter. She was born with a fine of over-birth. She will be in the first grade of elementary school in a few months.
In the living room, Song Weiyang drank tea and asked, "How is the development progress of the smartphone project?"
Since Song Weiyang personally planned and is the largest project in China, Shen Fuxing listens to relevant reports from each group every week. He said with a smile: "Multi-touch technology has achieved phased results."
"So fast?" Song Weiyang was a little surprised.
Although Shen Fuxing is not a professional, he has been focusing on related projects for a long time, and the basic concept is still clear. He explained: "Multi-touch has been researched since the 1980s, but due to various problems, it only made breakthrough development around 2000, but it is still a very niche thing. Currently, the products on the market, including our handheld computers, use single-point resistive touch. When we first established the Luzhou R&D Center, there were serious differences within the development team, and finally we conducted research at the same time from two directions."
Song Weiyang said: "Talk about the key points."
"I dug up a Chinese engineer from Johnieliasamp;rooney Westermann." Shen Fuxing said with a smile.
"What kind of company is that?" Song Weiyang really didn't know.
Shen Fuxing said: "A company that produces trackpads and multi-touch keyboards is the industry's leading company. It was just acquired by Apple last year."
"I understand," Song Weiyang asked again, "Will there be patent issues?"
Shen Fuxing said: "No. The multi-touch technology brought by the Chinese engineer still cannot fully meet our requirements, but he provided a very good idea. I can't remember the professional terms of using multi-layer styling of ito layers to form a unit matrix. Anyway, it is to use projection capacitive technology to achieve multi-touch. We need to design everything ourselves, and we will not infringe on anyone's patents, and the specific design can also be applied for patents. Now the first version has been successful, but it is not very ideal in all aspects. The development team is continuing to optimize the design, and it may be possible to launch the second generation in a month."
Multi-touch technology involves a lot of things, and if you really want to dig into the patent, it will be a fool.
The multi-touch patents that Apple can apply for are only some of the design patents. Moreover, the design patents are also very vague. Take the "rolling" design in it. At first, it did not pass the patent application at all, but later it was approved for no reason. Apple even won Samsung with this patent. Then, the official suddenly announced that Apple's patent was invalidated, and Samsung laughed and continued to sue.
As the project gradually deepens, Chen Fuxing controls the entire disk and his understanding of smartphones becomes clearer and clearer. He knows that this is an amazing electronic product and is quite excited: "Maybe our smartphones will be successfully launched next summer or the fall of the following year. At that time, it is estimated that the 3g network will also be popularized in China, and Shenzhou Technology will become an epoch-making company!"
"I am not optimistic about the domestic market. Now I should plan abroad in advance," said Song Weiyang. "And the R&D progress must be accelerated. It is best to take out the product next spring!"
In fact, Apple phones were born in the laboratory as early as last year. However, they are still the original version and cannot satisfy Jobs in all aspects. They are currently working on a second version. This version still annoyed Jobs, so there is a third version, and the third version will be released in half a year.
Shenzhou Technology develops smartphones, which have Song Weiyang's halo of time travel.
Because Jobs asked Apple to make smartphones, he was vague about the products and markets, and he himself didn't know what to do. He only had a general idea and then explored it step by step. Although Song Weiyang did not understand technology, he knew the specific functions of smartphones and put forward various requirements for R&D personnel to achieve.
Apple needs to slowly explore the direction, and Shenzhou Technology has determined the direction from the beginning!
The direction of developing a new product is crucial, and Shenzhou Technology can completely overtake.
Chen Fuxing asked: "Why are you not optimistic about the domestic market?"
Song Weiyang said: "As for domestic signal breaking, it is difficult for 2g network to perfectly play the functions of smartphones. At least 3g networks are required. However, after several years of 3g, many manufacturers have been developing 3g technology, but the government does not even issue a 3g license, and there is no sign of issuing a 3g license. If we sell smartphones in China, it is like selling a rifle without bullets."
Chen Fuxing frowned and said, "The 3G network is almost popular in Europe and the United States. Can China still delay it until 2008?"
It really delayed until the summer of 2008, and many domestic mobile phone manufacturers with pursuits were killed.
Most people, including Mr. Ren, have the same ideas as Chen Fuxing, who will definitely be issued a 3G license next year!
As a result, next year and next year, the flowers have faded.
Domestic companies that invest heavily in the research and development of 3G mobile phones are like gamblers. That is, 2G mobile phones cannot compete with foreign brands, so they will use 3G mobile phones to re-capture the market. Unexpectedly, after several years of preparation, this big battle has no intention of starting.
Most manufacturers can only think that they are unlucky, some go bankrupt because of this, and some choose to give up halfway.
Huawei has been gritting its teeth and insisting on it in recent years, investing billions of dollars. It is currently working on OEM in the European and American markets. The main reason is that Huawei is not famous in the West and cannot sell mobile phones at all. It can only make 3G customized machines for operators, which is so frustrating that users can only see Huawei’s trademark by opening the battery cover.
Song Weiyang said: "Our government's decisions have always been stable and focused, and try to develop independently. There are two main reasons why the 3G license has been delayed. The first is that China has independent intellectual property rights, and it needs to leave more time to commercialize it, and it is not yet mature in commercialization. The second reason is that although it is ignored by most people, it is actually the main factor."
"What's the reason?" Chen Fuxing said in confusion.
"It's too expensive," Song Weiyang smiled. "Building a nationwide 3G network will require an initial investment of over 100 billion yuan. And at least four 3G operating licenses have to be issued. You can't just send it to mobile, not telecom, Netcom, and China Unicom. Four licenses are four networks, and the initial investment may reach 500 billion yuan. And 3G technology is not an absolutely mature thing even in Europe and the United States. What if the country invests 500 billion yuan to build a 3G network, and suddenly 3G is replaced by more advanced technology? Only when 3G is truly popularized abroad and completely accepted by the market will China start issuing 3G licenses."
Chen Fuxing remained silent. He was from the perspective of entrepreneurs, while the government was from the perspective of the overall situation. This cannot be said that who is right or wrong.
"If a smartphone is developed and can only go abroad to conquer cities and land, then the market prospects are worrying." Chen Fuxing suddenly frowned.
Since Shenzhou Technology's Beijing R&D Center was established with the help of Huawei and later learned about Huawei's management system, Chen Fuxing and Mr. Ren had a good personal relationship. He also knew very well that Huawei sold mobile phones in Europe and the United States. It was too difficult for Chinese electronic brands to open up the market outside!
The name Oppo mobile phone was founded for the Western market, and even the company's headquarters is located in Silicon Valley. However, after a long time of struggle, BBK could only move Oppo back to China in shame. These two lessons from the past made Chen Fuxing extremely troublesome.
Song Weiyang said: "First set up an office in Silicon Valley and have some preliminary contact with the channel dealers there. We sell smartphones, which are epoch-making products, and will definitely attract enough attention! Also, if our smartphone research and development is successful, we will make the English version first, and you need to recruit some American employees in advance. Various settings must meet the habits of American consumers!"
"Okay." Chen Fuxing sighed.
Song Weiyang also said: "The departmental structure of Shenzhou Technology needs to be further streamlined. Especially the R&D department and product department, the current system is too complicated, and cadres and employees are framed by the system! This organizational structure design has more than enough success and insufficient innovation. Delegate power appropriately and loosen the constraints for them. I allow corruption to exist, as long as corruption is controlled within an acceptable range. I am not afraid of them being greedy, but fear that they will not do anything, and your previous reform will be overcorrected!"
Chen Fuxing said: "I have some feelings about this situation, but I have never found any opportunity to rectify it, and I have no idea of improvement for the time being."
"Set a branch in Chang'an to carry out technical cooperation with Xidian," said Song Weiyang. "Many departments who have been streamlined can be thrown to Chang'an to open up land. Even if the structure is streamlined, they should not be laid off easily."
"I understand this," said Chen Fuxing, "I will go back and find someone to make a plan."
Song Weiyang thought about it, but finally couldn't help but say: "If there is no emergency, it's better not to encourage overtime work, and overtime pay should be paid normally."
Chen Fuxing immediately firmly opposed: "I don't agree, this will greatly increase the company's costs and expenses!"
"I have publicly opposed wolf culture more than once," said Song Weiyang. "Although Huawei does not recognize its wolf culture, many things do it. I asked you to learn Huawei's system management, and you have learned all kinds of Huawei's atmosphere. Those who learn me live, like me die. Huawei's culture is not necessarily suitable for Shenzhou Technology. Just like when Huawei learned ibm, it also abandoned many of the things about ibm. I don't want many years later, when people mention Shenzhou Technology, they will use "Huawei Second". We are us, Shenzhou Technology is Shenzhou Technology, a high-tech company that is unique in the world!"
"Then what do you think?" Chen Fuxing was very upset.
Song Weiyang thought about it carefully and asked, "Do you still remember Nokia's slogan?"
Chen Fuxing said: "Technology is people-oriented."
"Nokia's corporate philosophy is i-female estinginpeople, that is, 'investment in people'. It was translated very well back then." Song Weiyang actually wanted to say why when I first founded Shenzhou, Nokia's "people-oriented" slogan had been translated, otherwise I would have used it directly.
"You mean, learn from Nokia in corporate culture?" Chen Fuxing said.
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Why do you have to learn whom?"
Chen Fuxing said speechlessly: "You have expressed other people's slogans, don't you want to use them?"
Song Weiyang shook his head and said, "The same slogan and different meanings. Nokia's 'Invest in People' is to invest in every employee and let employees develop together with the company. We shout 'yes, people-oriented'. On the one hand, we pay attention to the development of each employee, and on the other hand, we pay attention to the needs of each customer. The word 'people' has two meanings."
"Will you still need to be eliminated at the end and compete for employment?" Chen Fuxing asked.
"Yes, why not," Song Weiyang said shamelessly, "I am talking about people-oriented. Can those employees who are cheating and unprofitable be called humans? They are all borers!"
Brother Dong: These guys are not my brothers!
Dr. Ma: These guys are not humans!
Song Weiyang said: "Take care for the feelings of employees and pay attention to the needs of employees. However, management cannot be relaxed and a slack atmosphere cannot be formed!"
"Your requirements are so high!" Chen Fuxing laughed in anger, which was equivalent to making him go west while heading east.
"That's it. I'm responsible for asking questions, and you're responsible for solving the problems." Song Weiyang said.
Chen Fuxing sighed: "I finally understood what CEO is and what is the chairman!"
"Haha!" Song Weiyang was amused.
“Wow wow wow wow wow…”
Crying suddenly came from the second floor. Song Weiyang and Shen Fuxing ran up to see and found that Xiao Liuzi was wiping his tears.
The aunt at home reported: "Mr. Song, Liuliu was playing with this young lady just now, but the young lady pushed it off the slide."
Chen Fuxing immediately scolded his daughter: "Brother is younger than you, how can you bully him? Put your hand out!"
The little girl spread her palms aggrievedly: "I promised to slide once for one person, but he slipped three times and didn't let me."
"No matter how many times you slip, you can't bully your brother!" Chen Fuxing acted and wanted to fight.
Song Weiyang smiled and said, "Okay, what a big deal." He said to Xiao Liuzi again, "A man is a real man, why are you crying? The eggs on the mat cannot be broken, and it can still hurt you? Your mother is not at home today, and it is useless to cry in front of me."
Xiao Liuzi stopped crying and wiped her tears and asked, "When will mom be back?"
"You still want to sue?" Song Weiyang asked.
Xiao Liuzi didn't speak, so he was a default.
Song Weiyang sat down cross-legged and patiently guided: "Why would my sister push you?"
Xiao Liuzi said: "Because I slid three times."
Song Weiyang said: "I promised to skate each person once, and you skate three times in a row. Did you break the rules? Did you violate the promise?"
"I know the rules, what is a promise?" Xiao Liuzi asked.
"Promise is what you say, you must make it," said Song Weiyang. "For example, if Dad promises to buy you toys, it is a promise to you. If Dad agrees but doesn't sell it, it is a promise to ruin your promise. You just said nothing and don't let your sister play on the slide, just like Dad promises to buy you toys but doesn't buy them. Think about it, have you done something wrong?"
Xiao Liuzi lowered his head: "I...I was wrong and I won't break my promise in the future."
Chen Fuxing laughed beside him: "Old Song, you are really good at educating your children and have some skills! Unlike me, if the child does something wrong, he will beat him up."
Children are too young, so they can only teach these first and establish the correct views.
When the child is older, he should teach him how to break the rules, if he is just breaking the promise, and how to consider the consequences of the rules and promises before breaking them, and how to prepare in advance to avoid these consequences.
