My Return to Life

"My Return to Life (

Looking at the bright night view of Shencheng in front of the window on the 86th floor of Park Hyatt, there is a special sense of tranquility.

After dinner, Fang Nian went down to the private meeting room on the 86th floor, moved a chair and sat in front of the window.

No extra banquets were arranged.

After all, after booking the banquet hall on the 92nd floor, the hotel provides all types of catering, except for the chef’s table.

In places like banquets, Fang Nian will eat faster, so you can enjoy the night scene alone in advance.

Fang Nian didn't make much preparation for the upcoming Nuwa Alliance meeting.

Even as early as the middle of last month, Fang Nian mentioned to Lu Weiyu that a meeting would be organized.

Fang Nian's idea is simple.

His words are the mascot.

Members of the alliance made suggestions, and he adopted it and it was done.

Anyway, he had the final say inside the Nuwa laboratory, it was nothing more than a change in the external model.

For the moment, it does not affect the interests of Frontier at all-because Frontier is a big loss in Nuwa Lab anyway.

This is obvious.

Xiaomi has fought for nearly half a year and invested less than 8 million yuan in funds.

After Frontier took over, a batch of 110 million was invested in two months, excluding additional investment, and an additional 31 million was invested at the beginning of last month.

Although there is no plan to invest again this year from the budget;

But just that, it's not in an order of magnitude at all.

It is foreseeable that for a long time, the Nuwa laboratory will be in a state of loss.

But this does not mean that members of the Nuwa Alliance do not care about the interests that this meeting will affect.

The changes in Nuwa's laboratory can affect the interests of the members.

The most obvious example is Meizu M9...

Later, Lei Jun walked into this private meeting room under the guidance of the waiter.

"Oh huh~ Is President Fang myopic?"

Hearing Lei Jun's Mandarin with a little Xiantao accent, Fang Nian didn't even return, and said lazily: "What are you talking about?"

"Huh?" Lei Jun was stunned at the time. This was not like Fang Nian's style. He moved in his heart and smiled and said, "Is... too full?"

"Mr. Lei, how come you have learned to lift the bar." Fang Nian sighed, "They are all big men with a net worth of tens of billions, and they are calm and reasonable."

Lei Jun smiled: "Anyway, you also like to lift the bar."

Then he said: "And I found that the speech on the Internet is similar to that of Fang Zong. 95% of the user group of Xiaomi Forum is young people, and you have to get used to their behavior patterns."

Speaking of this, Lei Jun paused briefly, and suddenly said, "Fang is always teaching me, right?"

Fang Nian hurriedly waved his hand: "Mr. Lei, you really think too much about it, I just like to take the bar."

"After all... I'm pretty young, and I can say anything. Anyway, you have to listen if you are happy, who makes me rich now."

At the end, Fang Nian smiled triumphantly.

Lei Jun smiled: "Zong Fang's methods of piercing the heart are more and more ruthless, heart!"

"..."

In fact, Fang Nian is only familiar with him, or he only speaks between friends.

Lei Jun can be regarded as half a friend.

Fang Nian knew in his heart that if he insisted on counting his age, he was afraid he was ten years older than Lei Jun.

I lost my youth once and did it again. I greet the dark wind and rain to earn money in the morning, and I can’t go back in vain.

After all, with Lu Weiyu, he doesn't need to be wandering.

Thinking of this, Fang Nian suddenly moved in his heart. He turned around and looked at Lei Jun. He thoughtfully said: "A few words after the meeting?"

Lei Jun was puzzled: "?"

"It's a little thing." Fang Nian didn't say much.

At this time, Chen Mingyong walked in under the guidance of the waiter.

In the near future, the representatives of the five member companies of the Nuwa Alliance and the speaker arrived together.

…………

With a few jokes, Fang Nian sat back at the conference table.

After clearing his throat, Fang Nian said, "This is the meeting I proposed to organize. I will organize it."

Seeing that everyone had no objection, Fang Nian went on to say: "There are several things in Nuwa Lab that need to be discussed and decided by everyone."

Having said that, Fang Nian looked to Huang Xiujie: "Before the formal discussion, please Mr. Huang briefly introduce the sales situation of Meizu M9, including the scheduled volume."

Huang Xiujie was not surprised, and calmly said: "Due to insufficient inventory preparation, only 40,000 units were sold across the country during the three days of 8, 9, and 10, and they were all sold out;

The total number of reservations reported by specialty stores in five cities across the country is 118,000;

The total number of reservations received on the official Meizu forum is 32,000. "

Speaking of this, Huang Xiujie looked up at everyone: "I received the market evaluation report from the company in the afternoon. It is estimated that the total purchase demand of users will be 350,000 units this month;

If the production capacity of the foundry increases, it is expected to reach a total sales volume of 800,000 before the Spring Festival, far exceeding the previous market estimate. "

After Huang Xiujie's words fell, everyone had their own ideas.

Lei Jun thought for a while and said, "In other words, based on the golden sales period of a mobile phone, coupled with Meizu's brand influence, the total sales of the M9 mobile phone should exceed 3 million units?"

"Maybe it's 2 million." Huang Xiujie's answer was still a bit conservative.

Fang Nian sighed in his heart.

He didn't know much about Meizu in his last life, and now he understands a little bit. I really don't blame Meizu for being a ghost.

Obviously Huang Xiujie was the first to be called China Jobs.

Obviously Meizu is the Android machine king.

Obviously Meizu is the first domestic product.

Obviously, Meizu is the first to enter the domestic smartphone field for several years.

In the years when China's smart phones are developing vigorously, Meizu has become the other.

Really...

This has nothing to do with Huang Xiujie's character.

In Fang Nian's view, according to Meizu's current total sales data, the total sales of the M9 mobile phone can completely exceed 5 million.

The data given by Lei Jun is already very conservative, and Huang Xiujie is more conservative.

In addition, Meizu is a word, but Huang Xiujie hesitates on big things.

M9 annual bounce king.

Fang Nian can be clear that in the time and space where there is no Nuwa system, the M9 will be fully postponed to January 1, 2011.

The same conservative sales strategy is still issuing pre-orders on March 31.

This is not the same thing as Xiaomi's Internet "Hunger Marketing"...

Thinking of this in his mind, Fang Nian didn’t show any expression on the surface, but said with a faint smile: “The sales of M9 are still very good. From this perspective, the commercialization of the Nuwa system has successfully taken the first step. Do you agree with this?"

"President Fang is still relatively modest, and the performance of the Nuwa system is obvious to all."

"The 1.3 version is completely comparable to Apple's iOS and is absolutely ahead of Android. It is nothing more than there are still some gaps in the number of applications."

"..."

Chen Mingyong, Yu Dadong and others all agreed.

M9 can have such a pre-determined amount of capacity for such a hip pull, which is already very good.

We must know that the total sales of smart phones in the first three quarters of 2010 in China was more than 20 million, which also included the Nokia Symbian system series.

And now everyone has an estimate for the total sales of M9.

Even Huang Xiujie's conservative estimates accounted for one-tenth of the total in the first three quarters.

Fang Nian said it was the first step towards success, and everyone thought that it was already possible to declare a great success.

Fang Nian waved his hand: "We are all our own, don't need to be so flattered. The biggest commercial difficulty of Nuwa's system is the number of applications;

Everyone can see the efforts made by the Nuwa Laboratory in this regard. The current results are not too obvious and can only be done slowly. "

Speaking of this, Fang Nian paused for a while, and then said: "There are several things in Nuwa Lab that need to be discussed:

1. In the future, the main development direction of Nüwa laboratory autonomy.

2. In the future, the form and frequency of the system version of the Nuwa Lab will be updated.

3. In the future, how should the Nuwa laboratory cooperate with the alliance. "

After speaking, Fang Nian looked at everyone and said seriously: "I will explain the first question first.

Everyone knows the financial data of Nuwa Lab. The entrance fee paid by Chrysanthemum Factory last month has been fully invested in laboratory research and development, and it is expected to last until the end of this year;

According to the previously set rules, taking the total sales of M9 to 2 million as an example, the system authorization fee that Nuwa Lab can collect is only about 25 million before tax;

Because I once promised that the company I founded will not enter the mainstream mobile phone market.

and so……"

"The Nuwa Laboratory hopes to have greater autonomy and make certain developmental self-consistent adjustments."

After listening to Fang Nian, Lei Jun clearly expressed his support attitude: "I support it unconditionally."

"The development of Frontier Innovation after taking over the Nuwa system is obvious to all. Except for Frontier's own increase in capital investment, most of the development is an attempt with everyone's consent."

"Chrysanthemum Factory has no opinion." Yu Dadong smiled.

"..."

On this point, of course everyone has no opinion.

Fang Nian's decisiveness to the frontier is unmatched even by Huang Xiujie.

As for Fang Nian's courage, one of those present here counts as one, all of whom are younger brothers.

Fang Nian is using actual actions to show that the frontier either does not take this job, and if it takes it, it will do its best. It is definitely not a joke.

The excellence of the Nuwa system also illustrates this point.

Seeing everyone agreed, Fang Nian was also relieved: "Thank you for your support."

Then directly discussed the second question, about version update management.

"I have a report from the Nuwa Lab. The Nuwa Forum has absorbed a large number of flashing fans and enthusiasts. This actually has a great influence on the deep customization of their own UI by alliance member companies;

Now that the Nüwa system has officially begun commercial use, the Nüwa laboratory is also willing to release these resources, which can also reduce the maintenance cost of the laboratory. "

Lei Jun once again expressed his support with a clear-cut stand: "Xiaomi would like to thank Mr. Fang for his kindness, and we can discuss a new version update plan."

"Meizu also thanks Mr. Fang for his support to the alliance." Huang Xiujie said hastily.

"..."

No one will refuse, even Opal and Vivo, whose R&D capabilities are slightly weak.

This is something that is very beneficial to everyone, Fang Nian is willing to bring it up directly, and they are so happy that they don't have to sing black faces.

After all, no one is stupid, who can understand the attractiveness of Nuwa Forum to users.

This is not conducive to the development of UI with independent characteristics within alliance members.

Yu Dadong groaned a little, and then said: "I have an idea, Nuwa Lab can update Android just like Google."

"It's too radical. To be honest, the current version of Nuwa 1.3 is still inferior to Android." Fang Nianhe Qidao.

Huang Xiujie groaned: "Zong Fang also makes sense. After all, Nuwa Lab does not have the resources of Google, so most hardware manufacturers can cooperate."

"..."

Finally, after several discussions, a plan that everyone can accept was determined.

From now on, the Nüwa Lab will only release new versions through the Nüwa Forum.

The version is limited to the development test version, and the stable version is only updated within the alliance.

The frequency of public release of new versions has been changed to once every two weeks.

The frequency of internal release of stable version is determined by Nuwa Lab.

However, Fang Nian voluntarily proposed to release the stable version internally before the 2.0 version, which is still carried out every two weeks.

Fang Nian said with emotion: "In fact, I personally hope to update to version 2.0 on January 1, but it is difficult to do so;

Everyone can look forward to it. There will be major innovations in version 2.0, which will never disappoint. "

"..."

Then came the third thing raised by Nuwa Lab.

On how to cooperate.

Huang Xiujie was embarrassed and said: "Mr. Lu has a unique talent in Internet marketing. Meizu was not prepared. I didn't expect Mr. Fang to open up and talk about this."

Hearing this, Fang Nianxin said: ‘I’m just trying to balance. Otherwise, this alliance is easy to break, otherwise I’m bothering to do it. ’

On the surface, Fang Nian smiled and said: "The Nuwa Lab was originally established to serve the alliance. Although it is currently suffering a huge loss, it will definitely be profitable in the future. Even if it is profitable, everyone will feed it."

"President Fang is too humble."

"Yes, the excellence of the Nuwa system is likely to make Frontier the second Microsoft."

"..."

Yu Dadong teased: "If Fang always wants to make a mobile phone, there may be nothing for us."

Although he did not participate in the first alliance meeting, he could guess that this should be Fang Nian's voluntary concession.

Lei Jun echoed: "Mr. Yu may not be very clear, Mr. Fang has never liked doing complicated things."

Fang Nian was happy, and waved his hand again and again: "Mr. Yu and Mr. Lei, don't be so direct."

Then he said with a serious face: "It's really too much trouble to make mobile phones. I'm not interested just by looking at Xiaomi's hard work in the supply chain, and my cutting-edge angels invested in Xiaomi and Meizu, which can be regarded as mobile phones. "

"Haha..."

"It can be regarded as sitting and enjoying it..."

"..."

Everyone laughed.

The meeting atmosphere has always been relaxed.

Although these simple things involve a lot of benefits.

The cooperation plan discussed in the end is not complicated.

To put it simply, there are two points.

First, when the first mobile phone equipped with the Nuwa system of the alliance members was launched, the Nuwa Lab cooperated with the promotion.

The second is that the Nuwa Lab cooperates with the mobile phones produced by the alliance members to carry out targeted system adjustments.

The second point is to negotiate a service fee based on the situation.

"..."

After that, everyone also raised some other questions.

After friendly negotiations, a consensus was reached.

For Nuwa Lab, the result of this meeting was a process of decompression and a process of transferring part of the benefits.

The Nuwa laboratory can be said to have taken a step back.

The posture is very clear, that is, Nuwa Lab will focus more on the development of perfect systems.

Instead of competing for profit with alliance members.

This is good.

only……

Fang Nian skipped one thing specially.

That is, although the Nuwa system is open source to alliance members and supports deep customization of the UI, it restricts any form of service framework changes from the outside world.

which is:

There will only be one Nüwa mobile service framework ~www.ltnovel.com~ There will only be one Nüwa application store.

This thing is the golden rooster that may lay eggs.

It is very possible to bring tens of billions of profits to the Nuwa Lab a year.

Because this thing is equivalent to Google's GMS, Apple's AppStore.

But now GMS and AppStore have not shown terrible profitability.

So Fang Nian skipped it, and everyone didn't take it to heart.

All in all, Fang Nian has never cared about his immediate interests since he formally intervened in the business field in his life, and he even took the initiative to transfer current interests.

The most successful case is the 91 Wireless M&A case.

At the beginning, 22 million yuan was exchanged for 42% of the shares, and then Guan Qiuhe could not wait for the cold to ask for warmth. He paid 3 billion yuan in half a year.

and so……

It is true that Fang Nian likes to make friends with people in business, and it is also true to transfer interests.

But he didn't really consider others so much, nor did he treat everyone as a fool.

But Fang Nian is more patient than almost everyone, willing to wait for longer-term gains.

In the face of the benefits that can be obtained, most people are willing to be fools.

After all, the essence of the win-win philosophy that Fang Nian believes in is actually:

Although everyone earns, I will always earn the most.

After the meeting, Fang Nian said: "At nine o'clock in a while, Nuwa Lab will release a browser-based open source system on GitHub in the official name. The kernel is different from the Nuwa system. Pay attention."

"..."

The last update in October, luckily before 12 o'clock.

PS: There is nothing to summarize this month. In one sentence, I will try my best to finish this book at the original pace. Thank you for your support.
