Chapter 534 Wang Yi takes action, Apple’s tragedy!
The most important thing is that some of them are indeed suspected of monopoly, such as the monopoly in the application market.
Android applications can be downloaded from multiple application markets. In addition to Google Store, there are also App Store, Wandoujia, 360 Software Center, Baidu App Store, etc., as well as the official website of the application provider.
The XOS system, like Apple, only allows online access to the XOS App Store and downloads from the XOS App Store. Even the official website link will jump to the XOS App Store.
Payment for Android software can be made through other channels and Android’s commission can be bypassed.
However, the software payment of the XOS system, like Apple, must be recharged through the XOS application store, and the XOS system's commission cannot be circumvented.
This is definitely suspected of being a monopoly.
In previous lives, Apple was frequently sued and punished for antitrust violations.
Similarly, if the authorities really investigate and investigate seriously, the XOS App Store's monopoly will also be punished like Apple.
However, even so, Apple still has no intention of opening the App Store.
I would rather be investigated by a monopoly and punished than open to the public.
No matter what, once it is opened, third-party application stores such as Yongyongbao, Wandoujia, Baidu, and 360 will all be launched on the IOS system.
By then, the commissions from the software, games, and recharges users download from these app stores will go to the third-party app stores.
There are also promotional resources purchased by app vendors, which are all pocketed by third-party app stores. Apple can only drink from the northwest wind.
Just like Android in China, when Google sets up a platform, the money is made by third parties.
Apple cannot accept this.
Therefore, they would rather be punished and continue to use closed app stores.
After all, closed app stores can make more money, far more than the amount of money from monopoly investigations.
Monopoly investigations do not occur every year, nor are they comprehensive.
On the contrary, this time it is the European League, the next time it may be three years later, Xia Guo takes action, and the next time it will be five years later, the US emperor takes action...
In this way, even if you pay a fine, the losses will be smaller than liberalizing the application market.
What's more, every time there is a monopoly accusation, Apple will countersue.
When the final result comes out, you may not lose the case. Even if you do lose the case, you may not be fined as much as the EU imposes. There is a high probability that you will receive a discount.
The final fine was nothing compared to the money Apple made from its monopoly.
Likewise, the same is true for XOS systems.
Wang Yi said: "If we want to eradicate the monopoly problem, the XOS system must be fully open, and the XOS application store must also be open to third parties. In this way, we will not earn commission, and all the money will be earned by the third-party app store
Gone."
Zhu Changlin nodded: "This kind of behavior of making wedding clothes for others is indeed bad. No giant can accept it, and we can't let it go."
Another executive, Chu Yue, said: "But Android is open, and the Android app store is also fully open."
Yang Yan waved his hand: "It's different. The reason why Google opened the Android app store is just to promote the Android system to third-party brands. But if it weren't for this, Google would not give up this piece of fat and open the app store.
"
The XOS system is not directly used by third parties for this reason.
Once developed for other brands, the XOS system becomes an open system. The source code and underlying architecture must be open to third-party brands, and the application store must also be open to third-party brands.
Chu Yue's eyes lit up: "That's a good thing. Once the XOS system is released and used by third-party brands, the number of users of the XOS system will increase rapidly. This will be good for us to expand the development of the XOS system!"
Yang Yan shook his head: "Users will surge temporarily, but revenue may not surge, or even decline."
"The simplest thing. Once it is opened, a lot of software commissions and advertising revenue will be earned by mobile phone brand app stores and third-party app stores. In the end, it will fall on Xingyi Technology, but it may not be as high as it is now."
"More importantly, third-party brands will also feel that they are playing both sides of the fence between the XOS system and the Android system, forcing Xingyi Technology and Google to continue to give away profits in order to compete for customers, continue to retreat, and completely roll up..."
"In the end, both the XOS system and Android will suffer, and brands such as China Cool Alliance Mei Mi OV will make a lot of money. This is boring!"
After hearing this, everyone fell into deep thought, and Wang Yi had to think carefully.
The XOS system is open to third-party brands, which has advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that users can increase quickly, but it may not increase for a long time.
The disadvantage is that part of the revenue will be lost, and there will be all kinds of troubles in the future.
Zhu Changlin also sighed: "Director Yang's concern is very necessary. Now the XOS system has 64-bit advantages and is completely ahead of 32-bit Android. Major mobile phone brands are still willing to use the XOS system."
"In a few years, the 64-bit ecosystem of Android will also rise, and the situation will change. The major mobile phone brands will have both sides, and they will force us to give up profits on the XOS system, and give away profits like crazy."
"The simplest thing is that some mobile phone brands will be greedy and constantly threaten us. As long as the XOS system does not continue to benefit them, they will completely abandon the XOS system and return to Android!"
"This is really more disgusting than eating a fly! And it will be a fatal blow to our XOS system!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed drastically.
If so, it would be troublesome. It would be equivalent to the XOS system and Xingyi Technology being set up!
But Chu Yue couldn't help but said: "Is this going to happen? Major brands should have moral integrity and not add insult to injury, right?"
Wang Yi smiled: "What is integrity? With the virtues of major brands, you can do it, and even do it more seriously and excessively."
"We cannot let ourselves be reduced to the position of being chosen, let alone let third-party mobile phone brands become the boss, riding on the head of the XOS system and becoming its father."
This is impossible!
Even if the XOS system becomes a closed system like the IOS system, it cannot be set up by a third-party brand.
We cannot let the major mobile phone brands act as their fathers and ride on our shoulders to dominate us.
As for the major brands, they all know how to be grateful and repay their kindness...
Now I enjoy the 64-bit XOS system. Even if Android catches up in the future, it will continue to fully support the XOS system...
Even children don’t believe this.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes.
For the sake of profit, major brands will do anything.
Just like Huawei's car-machine system and autonomous driving solutions, it has also been completely liberalized. It is seeking to cooperate with major car brands. What is the result?
Only small brands like Xiaokang, which are on the verge of bankruptcy, are willing to cooperate with Huawei.
Other large companies would rather choose to cooperate with foreign giants and use foreign autonomous driving solutions than reject Huawei's solution!
In the euphemistic name, they want to ensure the independence of the soul, and then they turn around and sell the soul to foreign giants!
This is the virtue of these brands!
The same goes for mobile phone brands.
Even if they develop with the help of the XOS system, they will not be grateful to Xingyi Technology or the XOS system.
On the contrary, I feel that Wang Yi should be grateful to them!
I feel that it is precisely because these third-party brands use the XOS system that they can make the XOS system bigger. It is all their contribution.
At that time, I will also say that they can make the XOS system rise or destroy it!
They are the fathers of the XOS system!
That's really disgusting.
From the Huawei incident, Wang Yi can see the integrity and virtue of these brands.
Wang Yi doesn't trust them, not at all!
In order to prevent backlash, Wang Yi has made up his mind that the XOS system is currently closed and not open to third-party brands!
What's more, Xingyi Mobile has a competitive relationship with third-party brands. Even if it is really open, not many brands will continue to use it.
In the past two years, Android has not been upgraded to a 64-bit system, and major brands will use the more powerful XOS system.
Once two years pass and the Android 64-bit system is released, all major brands will abandon their competitors' XOS systems and continue to choose Android systems.
Unless Xingyi Technology gives up making mobile phones and concentrates on making systems, no matter how powerful the XOS system is, third-party brands will not continue to use it.
There is no doubt about this.
Just like when Qualcomm first emerged, it was still a small company.
Qualcomm's CDMA baseband chips are very powerful and very cheap, but not many brands use them.
Why?
Because Qualcomm not only makes CDMA basebands, but also Qualcomm CDMA mobile phones!
As a competitor, even if Qualcomm’s baseband chips are better and cheaper, peers will not use them!
No one wants to be an enemy!
In desperation, Qualcomm had no choice but to completely abandon the mobile phone business. Qualcomm's CDMA baseband was widely adopted by major brands, and it rose rapidly and became the current king.
If Qualcomm dares to continue to make Qualcomm smartphones, Qualcomm chips will instantly cool down.
There is no doubt about this.
The same is true for XOS systems and Kunpeng chips.
Now it has an absolute leading 64-bit monopoly advantage, and major brands have adopted it one after another.
Once this monopoly advantage is lost, once Qualcomm also releases 64-bit chips, there is a high probability that major brands will abandon Kunpeng chips and choose Qualcomm.
Unless the Kunpeng chip has the same performance and a lower price than Qualcomm, or the same price and higher performance than Qualcomm, major brands will consider it.
As long as the performance is similar and the price is similar, all major brands will choose Qualcomm.
No one wants to be an enemy, and no mobile phone brand is willing to make Xingyi Technology, a competitor, stronger.
The same goes for other components.
In a monopoly and leading position, friendly merchants will purchase.
As long as the performance is similar and the price is similar, friends will choose components from third-party suppliers.
As for XOS systems, it's even more difficult.
In essence, it is a competitive relationship. Do you still expect your competitors to help you develop and expand the XOS system?
This is more or less a daydream.
The simplest thing is to let Xingyi mobile phones and Wujie mobile phones be fully equipped with the IOS system, help Apple develop and expand the IOS system, and make Apple stronger!
Wang Yi doesn’t agree to this either!
Similarly, if China Cool Alliance Meimi OV helps Xingyi Technology develop the XOS system and make Xingyi Technology a stronger competitor, China Cool Alliance Meimi OV will not agree.
Even if you use the XOS system temporarily, it will backfire later!
Wang Yi sighed: "As long as Xingyi Technology continues to make mobile phones, the XOS system is destined to be used only by itself and will not be fully accepted by third-party brands!"
Everyone nodded, and even Chu Yue said no more.
Essential conflict of interests doomed this situation.
No one is stupid enough to help competitors develop and expand their operating systems. On the contrary, they all want to kill their competitors!
"Well, since they are essentially opposites, neither the XOS system nor the app store will be open. They are the core advantages and core competitiveness of our Xingyi mobile phones and Unbounded mobile phones!"
Wang Yi made the final decision and made the decision directly.
Closed systems have pros and cons, and the pros outweigh the cons.
In previous lives, many people bought iPhones for Apple's IOS system.
If Apple lets go of the IOS system, and the 599 Redmi can be equipped with the IOS system, then who will buy an iPhone just for one system?
As for the configuration? The configuration of the iPhone is far inferior to that of most Android phones. Once the system advantages of IOS are gone, it will be completely useless!
The same is true for Xingyi mobile phones.
The XOS system is closed, and many users buy Xingyi phones for the powerful XOS system.
Once you get used to the XOS system, you will continue to use the Xingyi phone when you change your phone later.
But once the XOS system is released and any brand can carry the XOS system, it will be troublesome.
Xingyi Mobile is no longer the only one and will completely lose its core competitiveness.
The same XOS system, the same processor, and similar configurations. Other brands are two to three thousand cheaper. Why should users buy the Xingyi phone priced at 5,499?
Don’t choose the 2999 Xiaomi phone?
As a closed system, the XOS system is the unique core competitiveness of Xingyi mobile phones and Unbounded mobile phones, which is actually better.
More importantly, with the emergence of unbounded mobile phones, the XOS system has developed rapidly, and there will definitely be no shortage of users in the future.
Even if there is no third-party brand to carry it, the XOS system can still grow.
Especially the upcoming Prism Gate will make the XOS system flourish, making Xingyi mobile phones and Unbounded mobile phones extremely popular.
Chu Yue spoke again: "But what about the current monopoly accusation?"
Wang Yi frowned: "This matter is just some public opinion at present and does not represent the official government. To put it bluntly, it is just the guidance of public opinion from some well-intentioned people who want to mess with us. But this may not be the case with the official government."
"As for these public opinions, the other party can guide them, and we can also guide them."
"If you guide it well, maybe this is not a crisis, but an opportunity!"
Hearing this, everyone became interested: "How can we guide and turn crises into opportunities?"
Wang Yi smiled lightly: "First of all, the big position is that our Xingyi Technology is not a monopoly, but to break the European and American monopolies!"
"In the past, the system was monopolized by foreign systems such as IOS and Android. The emergence of our XOS system is to break the foreign monopoly."
"The monopoly of app stores is to better regulate software, for the sake of user safety, and to prevent junk software from being put on the shelves."
"Payment monopoly is also for safety."
"Secondly, this incident was deliberately manipulated by European and American giants to induce confrontation and suppress our Xingyi Technology."
"The essential reason is that the development of Xingyi Technology breaks the European and American monopolies and affects their interests. They are anxious and use this method to slander our monopoly and suppress us. The purpose is to hinder our development or even kill us, thus
Better to let them continue to have a monopoly."
"As for who?"
"Put the blame directly on Apple. No matter who did it, they will say it was Apple!"
"It was our rapid development that caused iPhone sales to drop sharply in Xia Country, shaking their base. This caused Apple to jump to the wall, deliberately smear us, create monopoly trouble, and deliberately suppress us!"
Hearing this, everyone was happy.
Zhu Changlin even laughed and said: "This is good, it just muddies the water! Originally, everyone was speculating whether we were really suspected of monopoly, but with this operation, everyone started to discuss whether it was Apple's conspiracy! It's a perfect diversion.
!”
Wang Yi nodded: "Yes, conspiracy theories are the best strategy for this kind of thing. The current monopoly problem is mainly domestic, so use conspiracy theories to divert it. And this matter is most likely done by Apple or Google, so it is not an injustice.
them."
"As for overseas, it doesn't matter. None of our Xingyi mobile phones have been launched overseas. It's a monopoly. Don't worry about it."
"That's right, that makes it easier to talk about." Everyone nodded.
Wang Yi continued: "Finally, we have to reiterate our position and increase value! Xingyi Technology will continue to work hard to break the European and American blockades and monopolies, enable the full rise of domestic products, and effectively ensure user safety and network security..."
Everyone suddenly realized that this was purely of high value, and it was so high!
"Do it quickly and arrange it immediately!"
"yes!"
Everyone responded one after another.
Soon, Xingyi Technology issued a statement:
[We express our deep regret and helplessness regarding the rumors of Xingyi Technology’s monopoly that have begun to appear on the Internet.
Xingyi Technology has never been a monopoly, nor does it want to monopolize.
Xingyi Mobile has never squeezed suppliers or forced them to cut prices. On the contrary, our stable settlement has won the trust and favor of the majority of suppliers.
It is for this reason that many new suppliers apply to join the Xingyi Technology supply chain every month!
The XOS App Store does not have a monopoly. It is just to ensure the safety of users and prevent malicious and illegal software from being put on the shelves and automatically starting, which seriously endangers user security and seriously affects the user experience.
The payment monopoly is also a joke. The XOS App Store not only supports Changchao payment, but also other secure payment methods such as UnionPay and credit cards.
Ele.me’s takeaway market share is too high. This is purely due to our huge investment. While providing users with a better dining experience, we have also created millions of jobs and solved the food and clothing problem for millions of families!
AutoNavi's taxi-hailing market share is too high and it has invested huge amounts of money to make travel more convenient for the public. It has also created millions of jobs and benefited millions of ordinary families.
…
From beginning to end, Xingyi Technology has never had a monopoly, nor has it ever thought about monopolizing it.
On the contrary, Xingyi Technology only broke the monopoly of foreign operating systems, broke the monopoly of Apple and Android, and allowed the complete rise of domestic operating systems!
It just breaks the monopoly of mid-to-high-end smartphones by overseas giants, breaks the monopoly of Apple, Samsung, and LG mobile phones, and allows domestic mobile phones to completely rise!
Just break the monopoly of overseas high-end chips, break the monopoly of high-end chips of Qualcomm, Apple, and Samsung, and let domestic chips rise strongly!
It's just that Xingyi Technology's strength was too outstanding and its rise was too rapid, causing overseas giants to lose their monopoly position and unable to gain global wealth through their monopoly position, resulting in heavy losses.
For this reason, some overseas giants jumped over the wall, colluded with domestic and foreign media, concocted monopoly incidents, and used monopoly turmoil to discredit and suppress Xingyi Technology.
The intention is to use this to hinder the development of Xingyi Technology and curb the rise of domestic products, so as to continue to maintain the monopoly of overseas giants, continue to better sell high prices and low allocation, and earn our hard-earned money!
To this, Xingyi Technology firmly said no!
We will not be afraid of dangers, work hard and be proactive.
Gradually break the monopoly of overseas giants, let domestic products rise completely, provide everyone with more and better products, create more jobs, and make everyone's life better!
This is the responsibility and mission of Xingyi Technology!
——Wang Yi, Chairman of Xingyi Technology
June 23, 2013]
As soon as the statement came out, it immediately became a trending topic on multiple platforms and caused an uproar.
And public opinion online has completely changed:
"I just said, how can Xingyi Technology have a monopoly? It turns out that it is to break the monopoly of foreign giants!"
"Before the emergence of the XOS system, mobile phone systems were monopolized by foreign countries. Before the emergence of Xingyi mobile phones, high-end mobile phones were monopolized by foreign countries! Before the emergence of Xingyi TVs, high-end TVs were monopolized by foreign countries. Before the emergence of Xingyi tablets, high-end tablets were monopolized by foreign countries.
monopoly!"
"The development history of Xingyi Technology is the history of the development of domestic brands striving to become stronger. It is also the history of the struggle of national brands to strive for self-improvement and break international monopoly!"
"If this is considered a monopoly, is it possible that we have to keep kneeling and be monopolized by European and American giants?"
"Yes, Xingyi Technology is a contributor, not a monopoly!"
"I was laid off from my company and lost my income. Fortunately, AutoNavi's ride-hailing service saved me from starving to death."
"I can't find a job, so I support my family by working as an Ele.me rider."
"Xingyi Technology has created millions of jobs and saved many families. How can it be considered a monopoly?"
"If this is all a monopoly, then I would rather all companies be such a monopoly, creating millions of jobs and benefiting millions of ordinary families."
"Xingyi Technology is definitely not a monopoly. This matter must be caused by some foreign brands spreading rumors and smearing Xingyi Technology."
"This turmoil started from the Internet. Xingyi Technology developed too fast and affected the cakes of foreign giants."
"I see. Why are there suddenly rumors that Xingyi Technology has a monopoly? This is because of some villain."
"By the way, which brand made it? It's so unlimited!"
"It goes without saying that the overseas giant was hit the hardest and suffered the most losses."
“No need to guess, it’s the iPhone! With the rise of Xingyi Mobile, iPhone’s domestic sales dropped by 73%, resulting in heavy losses!”
"Also, the previous 618 sales champions were iPhone and iPad, but this time 618 are all Unbounded mobile phones, Xingyi mobile phones, and Xingyi tablets!"
"It's just that Apple's sales volume was too high, and 618 was completely beaten by Xingyi Technology. Apple jumped over the wall and deliberately created a monopoly crisis to suppress Xingyi Technology and kill Xingyi Technology."
"Holy shit, Apple is so shameless? There is no limit, we must boycott them!"
"That's right, boycott Apple. I just bought an iPhone 5. I'm going to return it right now!"
"I'll cancel it and go back to place an order for xphone 2pro."
“I also returned my iPad and replaced it with Xingyi Pad 1 Ultra!”
"Everyone is going to return the product. We will never use any Apple products again, only Xingyi Technology!"
"Just because Ele.me and AutoNavi have created millions of jobs and solved the food and clothing problems of millions of families, I will boycott Apple and support Xingyi Technology!"
Chapter completed!
