125 There’s No Need to Go All the Way
“President Zhou, the current Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System is only a framework and is not perfect. It will take some effort to commercialize it.”
“I don’t have any plans to authorize any third party use of the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System for the time being.”
After receiving news that the Android system had banned the installation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, Li Chengqian had no time to think about anything else. His only thought was to quickly get the core of the Divine Dragon operating system out.
Therefore, he spent the entire night using the Mental Coding skill to fervently perfect the Divine Dragon operating system core.
He really hadn’t seriously considered the commercialization of the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System.
But still, Li Chengqian did have a rough idea!
To manufacture his own phone!
To install the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System on the phone he manufactured.
And it had to be done!
At the very least, the first batch of phones had to run on the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System!
The first batch of phones was very important. If the review was bad, it would be extremely disadvantageous to the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System.
Li Chengqian was also afraid that the phone manufacturers would pretend to be respectful but play dirty tricks behind his back. When their phones didn’t function properly, they might pin all the blame on the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System.
This way, the reputation of the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System would be ruined!
“If President Li has any thoughts, please contact me immediately.” Zhou Shaoyun’s face was filled with regret because he could tell that Li Chengqian was rejecting him tactfully.
While the other mobile phone manufacturers were disappointed, they were also glad at the same time.
The reason for their disappointment was very simple. The Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System was so powerful that if it was installed on a phone produced by his own company, a 2,000 yuan phone would be able to beat an 8,000 yuan phone.
If he sold the phones installed with the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System overseas, in terms of performance, they would definitely beat foreign cell phone brands in terms of cost-effectiveness. This would further increase their share of the international market.
Now that Li Chengqian did not have the plans to sell the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System, this idea could not be realized at the moment.
Fortunately, once Li Chengqian only authorized certain manufacturers to use the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System, it would be a fatal blow to other manufacturers.
Although the current situation was not the best, it was not the worst. Although he had not obtained the authorization to use the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System, the other mobile phone manufacturers hadn’t obtained the authorization as well. Everyone was thus at the same starting line.
“Li Chengqian wants to make his own phone! He’s learning from Apple!” When they heard Li Chengqian’s answer, this thought flashed across many people’s minds.
“The performance of the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System is indeed comparable to Apple.”
“But Apple has more than just the phone system…”
“Li Chengqian’s plan to manufacture his own phone is too simplistic!” Qian Yongming’s mind raced. He shook his head and didn’t think highly of Li Chengqian’s idea.
Manufacturing mobile phones required strong design capabilities, hardware integration capabilities, and supply chain integration capabilities.
It was not as easy as he had imagined.
“Hello, President Li. I’m Wang Renfei from Huawei. You developed the mobile phone operating system yourself and broke the hold that the foreign companies have on us. We should learn from you… I’ve also done related work, but I don’t have your drive and vision!” Huawei developed the HarmonyOS on the basis of Android and HONOR on the basis of Linux.
But it was all done on the basis of Linux.
On the other hand, Li Chengqian started from scratch and developed a new system. On this point, Wang Renfei felt inferior.
“Hello, President Wang!” Li Chengqian replied indifferently. Huawei had also done all the things like taking down the Divine Dragon Optimization App and issuing security warnings on the App. They had also set installation restrictions on their phone system in the later stages.
“President Li, do you want to learn from Apple and make your own phone? Then use the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System on your own phone?” Wang Renfei spoke very directly.
“That’s right!” Li Chengqian admitted directly.
“President Li, in fact, you don’t have to build a phone at all!” Wang Renfei shook his head and said with a smile.
“As long as the performance of the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System can reach the performance you demonstrated on the stage just now, I’m willing to give you 100 yuan for the system usage fee for each phone!”
“Huawei ships 130 million phones a year. YYou can get 13 billion yuan in software authorization fees without lifting a finger!”
“If all the mobile phone manufacturers in the country use the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System, the number of products shipped in and out of the country will be about 1.6 billion a year. You will make 160 billion yuan a year just from the software authorization fee.”
“After mobile phone manufacturers obtain the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System, they will gain a huge advantage in terms of performance and pricing in the international market. Our mobile phone manufacturers will also have a greater market share in the international market, and the number of shipments will also increase.”
“The software authorization fee you can obtain will be even higher! The Divine Dragon Software Company will also grow faster.”
“President Li, this is a win-win cooperation!”
“Why do you have to go through so much trouble to make your own phone? If you make your own phone and the sales volume doesn’t increase, the profits won’t be too great.”
“If you want to achieve a profit of 100 billion yuan, even if everything went well, you might not be able to do it in five years.” Wang Renfei’s attitude was very sincere.
After he finished speaking, he looked straight at Li Chengqian, wanting to get a sense from Li Chengqian’s expression.
But he was disappointed. Li Chengqian’s expression did not fluctuate at all. He was still calm and did not get excited by the huge numbers he mentioned.
“President Wang, you said it very well! But… I still refuse! I must manufacture a phone! And it won’t be long before I can meet you guys,” Li Chengqian replied calmly, expressing his determination.
Wang Renfei’s proposal was very good and very tempting.
However, money was something that no longer mattered to Li Chengqian!
Li Chengqian was confident that with the Master of All Professions game, he could easily earn however much money he wanted!
Li Chengqian wasn’t too interested in money!
Not long ago, these mobile phone manufacturers had resorted to all means to kill the Divine Dragon Optimization App.
In fact, after the Android system banned the installation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App, it even went a step further by pushing a so-called security patch of the Android system and banned the installation of the App at the system level.
Li Chengqian had clearly seen their methods of annihilating him. He remembered it in his heart.
Was Li Chengqian a magnanimous person?
Obviously… he wasn’t!
So, they wanted Li Chengqian to immediately authorize them to use the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System?
The time wasn’t right yet, dream on!
Even if he wanted to authorize it, he had to wait until the phone manufacturers were really defeated.
At that time, Li Chengqian would have the absolute say! That would be the perfect time to authorize other manufacturers to use it.
“President Li, there’s no need to be ruthless! Everyone is only out to make money! It’s best to have a win-win situation. Actually, if you’re not satisfied with the authorization fees, we can still negotiate! You’ll definitely be satisfied.” Qian Yongming from OPPO continued.
The models that the major mobile phone manufacturers were preparing to release this year were still in the warehouse.
If they could negotiate a collaboration with Li Chengqian, the performance of these models would directly increase by four times after installing the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System. Only then would the entry-level console be upgraded to that of the mid-level main console.
The price was 1.5 times the previous price. With some gimmicks thrown in, the phones would definitely sell well.
Although there was an additional system usage fee, they would still earn more money after deducting this fee.
No matter how much money Li Chengqian earned, they would always earn more than him.
Moreover, the phone manufacturers purchase and use of Li Chengqian’s Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System would come with conditions!
Firstly, the Divine Dragon Mobile Phone System must not be opened to individual users!
Secondly, Li Chengqian must not continue to develop the Divine Dragon Optimization App!
Currently, the installation of the Divine Dragon Optimization App on Android phones was prohibited. However, with Li Chengqian’s terrifyingly formidable technology, as long as he studied it, he would definitely crack this restriction. Once the App became popular, it would be difficult to sell the manufacturer’s phones.
In the next three years, the domestic cell phone sales would decrease to 30% of the original figure!
This was a disaster for the entire industry.
“I’m sorry, I’m not selling the phone system for the time being!!” Li Chengqian replied calmly. As Academician Lin Qu was calling out to him, he picked up his laptop, picked up the two phones he had just used for testing, and walked towards him.
