In an office building in Kyoto, a group of middle-aged figures are having a related meeting.

"Mr. Lei, are we really not called Rice Technology?"

"Stop calling it, let's call it Xiaomi Technology. When we were officially established, but we were drinking millet porridge, it was called Xiaomi Technology, and the name was relatively easy to accept."

"Well, just call Xiaomi Technology, I have no other opinion."

"Neither do I. Listen to Brother Jun."

Lei Jun and everyone who were planning to set up Rice Technology finally set the company name as Xiaomi Technology, which has not changed in any way from the previous life.

"Okay, this matter is settled like this, we should discuss how to make Xiaomi mobile phones so well, this is our ultimate goal."

"Brother Jun is right, without Xiaomi phones, we are nothing."

Under Lei Jun's decision, the company name was soon decided.

The most critical task of their team is to create an ultimate smartphone that is popular in the market.

The founder team of Xiaomi Technology, Lu Weibing, Li Wangun, Lin Bin and others, are here, discussing how to carry out their work.

This is not the first time they have had this kind of discussion, and now they are discussing more about finding ways to really solve the problem.

"Brother Jun, do you have any good ideas? We currently lack competitiveness in smartphones and smart hardware."

"Yeah, whether it's the operating system, or the hardware of the smartphone, we're all missing right now."

Lu Weibing and Li Wangun asked Lei Jun one after another that Xiaomi must face a lot of problems, and now we must give priority to solving the most critical problems.

The operating system and hardware of the smartphone are undoubtedly the two most critical parts, which must be confirmed and resolved as soon as possible.

"Compared with other companies, we must have a big gap. For intelligent systems, we don't need to consider domestic ones for the time being. The only Haotian system is clearly not made public, and of course it is impossible to provide other mobile phone manufacturers for use. Foreign If it is, BlackBerry and Saipan, don’t need to think about it for the time being. It looks good at present, but the system does not change much from the original functional machine, and it certainly cannot be regarded as truly intelligent.”

Lei Jun, as a big bull with a background in technology, has never lost his spirit of specializing in research, and said the key points casually.

He has a very deep understanding of smart phones at home and abroad, and his eyes are very keen, and he quickly grasps a lot of key information.

Of course, this has something to do with Lei Jun's connections, and he has good interpersonal relationships in the entire Internet field.

In the past ten years, he is not a white man in Jinshan, and has accumulated a lot of experience and contacts.

"Brother Jun, do we still have to choose Google's Android system?"

"If there is no accident, we can only use Google's Android operating system."

"But isn't the Android system coming out in October this year? And even if it does come out, we can't predict the specific situation of the Android system."

After receiving confirmation from Lei Jun, Lu Weibing was thoughtful and asked Lei Jun.

Based on what's gathered today, Google's Android isn't necessarily the most reliable. For Xiaomi Technology, time is money and life.

Xiaomi Technology is currently in its infancy, and a day is a loss. If it is delayed, it will be very difficult to catch up with the leading companies.

The popularity of Haotian's HTOne mobile phone has been continuously sold out, and a lot of money has been harvested inward, all of which have made them jealous of mobile phone manufacturers.

Facing Lei Jun's words, Lin Bin's expression was a little strange, and he couldn't help but secretly smiled.

Lin Bin's background is very legendary. He graduated from a certain university in China, studied abroad, and entered Google as the first of the four vice presidents!

Now being invited to Xiaomi Technology to serve as the future president of Xiaomi Technology, it shows his ability and courage.

"Brother Bin, what are you laughing at? Did I say something wrong?"

After Lu Weibing finished speaking, he just saw Lin Bin snickering, so he asked in surprise.

"You're right, but your news is a little behind. I received the latest news from an old Google colleague this morning. Android is expected to be developed by the end of June!"

Lin Bin shook his head, revealing the information he got in the morning. He also just learned about it not long ago, and he has not yet had time to inform everyone.

"End of June? Is this true?"

Except for Lei Jun and Lin Bin, the rest of the people were amazed, but they didn't expect good news.

"Of course it is true. It was revealed by my old colleagues at Google. It must be true."

"At the end of June, that means we can get the Android system in the beginning of July. In that case, there are only three months left, which is not too long."

"Wei Bing, you are wrong again. Maybe I didn't make it clear. June was the time when Google developed it, and it may take some time to make it public."

Lin Bin shook his head again. Google can indeed complete the development of the Android system by the end of June, but it is equivalent to Google's immediate provision of the operating system to other mobile phone manufacturers.

"Then we still have to wait, but this situation is not bad, so we finally choose Android as our operating system?"

Lu Weibing can only comfort himself like this now, after all, they currently have no other options.

"Yes, you can only choose the Android system. The research and development will be completed at the end of June, and Google will conduct internal testing and review in July, and at the same time make Google mobile phones! That is to say, we can get it from Google at the end of August or early September. to the source code of the operating system and Google's boilerplate."

Lin Bin roughly analyzed that although he got the latest information, it was not all the information.

But based on his experience at Google, it can be guessed that Google's general arrangement is when they can get the Android source code.

"The approximate time may be like this. We will enter the formal research stage in August and September, and before that, we need to do other preparations, you all understand?"

"Know, we'll do everything else as well as we can."

"Our current task is to establish a project, locate the price of the product, and make good hardware. In the early stage, we Xiaomi Technology first achieved the ultimate cost-effectiveness, occupying the low-end market, allowing the enterprise to survive, and then talking about other things. Haotian HTOne mobile phone, We can refer to it.”

After thinking for a moment, Lei Jun said, this is the direction that everyone has unanimously decided recently.

One thousand five hundred to two thousand five hundred yuan, this is the positioning of Xiaomi mobile phones. In the low-end market, it is staggered from Haotian HTOne mobile phone.

As for the reference and comparison products, it is Haotian HTone mobile phone.

Of course, the reference mobile phone must also be the Haotian HTOne mobile phone. The mobile phone has created many new processes and black technologies, and peaked people's cognition of smart phones.

When users see the HTOne mobile phone, they are often amazed that the original mobile phone can be made like this!

"Mr. Lei, we understand!"

"Brother Jun, we know."

The founders of Xiaomi Technology responded in succession, clearly understanding that they should start working and officially launching the Xiaomi project.

Huaxia's mobile phone market needs disruptors like them to achieve the ultimate cost-effectiveness and live for ranting!
