Chapter 357 Strive to Build a Complete System Ecosystem After Lu Shan said this, the applause and cheers became even louder. He paused for a moment, and his tone became calmer and more frank: "I know that everyone is looking forward to the Zemeng operating system, but I would like to remind everyone of a realistic problem here - the Zemeng operating system has just been launched. Although we have made some breakthroughs in some functions, there is still a certain distance to go before we can truly build a complete system ecosystem." After saying this, the audience members in the audience obviously put away some of their excitement. Everyone knew that for an operating system to truly become mainstream in the market, it is not enough to rely on just a few highlight functions. Compared with Microsoft's Windows or Apple's iOS, Zemeng clearly still has a long way to go. Lu Shan continued: "Microsoft's Windows operating system has established a huge software ecosystem after decades of development. Whether it is office software, games, video editing, or professional design, Windows has countless third-party software support. The same is true for Apple's iOS. With its unique closed ecosystem, Apple provides users with a highly integrated and stable experience." As he spoke, he showed several charts on the screen, which clearly listed the user scale, number of software and market share of Windows and iOS systems. Whether in terms of the number of software or the breadth of users, Microsoft and Apple are already far ahead. "These systems have their advantages." Lu Shan pointed to the data on the screen, his tone still calm and frank. "They have accumulated market share and user stickiness over decades. Zemeng System cannot compare with them in this regard."
The audience listened quietly, and some of them nodded slightly, obviously understanding what Lu Shan meant. "Of course, we will not deny these facts." Lu Shan smiled lightly, "But we also have our own advantages. We are a young company, and our operating system is more flexible and open. The Zemeng operating system does not need to take a closed route like iOS, nor will it impose a heavy cost burden on users like Windows. " When the audience heard this, they began to discuss in low voices again. "Indeed, Windows has a strong ecosystem, but the data redundancy after the system has been used for a long time is too uncomfortable," said a viewer. "Although Apple is closed, its smoothness is impeccable. The key is that the hardware is expensive. If Zemeng system can balance these two points, it should have a good chance." Another audience member nodded. Lu Shan continued: "I know that when you hear 'free operating system', you may wonder what our profit model is? How do we keep the system updated and maintained?" He paused, glanced at the audience, and continued, "Our strategy is open cooperation. We will work with third-party software developers, hardware manufacturers, and cloud service providers to jointly build an ecosystem." At this point, Lu Shan's eyes became more determined and his tone became more sonorous and powerful: "Zemeng operating system is not only a platform, it is an open ecosystem. We will open our platform interface to all developers, all hardware manufacturers, and all service providers, allowing them to freely develop applications and hardware products for the Zemeng system." He tapped the screen to display a blueprint for building an ecosystem: "As you can see, this is our vision for the future. We will not adopt a closed model like Apple, nor will we bind users to a set system like Microsoft. We will build an open and free ecosystem so that everyone can participate. ” The audience was gradually moved by these words, and many of them looked thoughtful. "In this way, there is indeed a chance to break the existing market structure." A young audience member whispered. "Yes, if it's an open ecosystem, many developers will be interested. After all, no one wants to be restricted by closed systems." Another audience member nodded. Lu Shan paused for a moment and then continued: "Although we don't have a huge ecosystem like Windows and iOS, our goal is to achieve this through openness and cooperation. We are already in talks with some well-known software companies and hardware manufacturers at home and abroad. In the future, the Zemeng system will be able to support more software and hardware, allowing users to enjoy a richer experience." The reporters in the audience began to take notes rapidly, and many began to write down key words: "open, free, and cooperative." These concepts were in sharp contrast to those of traditional operating system manufacturers. At this moment, Yang Qing's face in the corner became even uglier.
He realized that the open strategy of Zemeng System was undoubtedly challenging the cooperation model between Lianxiang and Windows. "Open ecosystem? They really dare to say that." Yang Qing thought to himself, his mouth twitching slightly, "Can the system's ecological chain be created just by these nice words?" Even though I thought this, a feeling of uneasiness gradually welled up in my heart. Fang Jianguo's face also looked unhappy. He is the president of Microsoft's Xiaguo region and is accustomed to the competition and changes in the market, but today, every word of Lu Shan seemed to be a challenge to them, Microsoft. "Open cooperation? This is clearly shaking our business model." Fang Jianguo gritted his teeth in his heart. Although he remained calm on the surface, he had already begun to worry about the future of Microsoft. Lu Shan looked at the audience's reactions and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, today we have only briefly introduced some of the core functions of the Zemeng operating system. There will be more innovations and breakthroughs in the future. We will work hard to promote the ecological construction of the Zemeng system and create an operating system that belongs to everyone." The audience burst into warm applause again. Lu Shan's smile became more confident. He raised his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet. He then said, "We believe that future technology should not be restricted by closedness and high costs. It should be something that everyone can use and participate in freely. The Zemeng system was created for this goal." There was applause from the audience, and many people were deeply moved by Lu Shan's words. The future of Zemeng operating system seems to be gradually becoming clear in their minds. Lu Shan paused for a moment amid the applause, waiting for the venue to quiet down again. The blueprint of the Zemeng operating system on the screen has been deeply engraved in the minds of every audience member. The atmosphere in the audience is still high, and everyone's eyes are fixed on the stage, waiting for Lu Shan to continue sharing more future plans. Lu Shan took a deep breath and continued, "Everyone, today's press conference is coming to an end, but before it ends, I would like to talk to you about the two future development directions of the Zemeng operating system. This is not only about the growth of our Zemeng, but also about how all users and developers can participate in the construction of this new ecosystem." As he spoke, he waved his hand gently, and the screen switched again, showing two key roadmaps. "As everyone knows, the Zemeng operating system is still in its early stages." Lu Shan's tone was frank and calm. He knew clearly that although many shocking functions were demonstrated today, in order for a brand-new system to be truly accepted by the market, it must be continuously polished and evolved. “We will always maintain close contact with users and continue to collect their feedback, opinions and suggestions during use.” He paused and gave an example: "For example, the COCO Assistant demonstrated today has demonstrated its powerful intelligent linkage capabilities, but each user's usage habits are different. Some users may need more precise file management functions, and some users may want COCO Assistant to provide more detailed filtering options when searching in the browser. Your feedback will determine the future direction of the system." A simple user feedback interface appeared on the screen. Lu Shan pointed at it and said, "In the Zemeng system, we have prepared a feedback portal for each user. You can provide us with suggestions at any time. Every suggestion will be carefully studied by our R&D team, and we will continue to optimize and improve the Zemeng system based on your actual usage." He smiled lightly and said jokingly: "Some user suggestions may even become the core features of our next generation operating system." The audience smiled knowingly, and applause and laughter mixed together. “Therefore, the Zemeng system will always remain open and flexible. We will not stick to a certain model, but will continue to iterate and improve based on user needs. This is not only our commitment, but also the driving force for the continuous optimization and improvement of the Zemeng system. " Lu Shan's tone was firm and confident, and it was obvious that he was full of expectations for the future. At this time, the reporters in the audience had already started typing on their keyboards rapidly, and many audience members were also talking about it. "It sounds like this is more down-to-earth than the traditional system. Users can also participate in system improvements," said a young technology reporter. "Yes, Windows and Apple don't have such fast feedback channels. It feels like the Zemeng system really puts users first." Another reporter nodded. The live broadcast barrage also exploded.
"It can actually provide real-time feedback. The Zemeng system is tailor-made for users like us!" “User-driven system updates? That’s really cool!” "COCO Assistant can be improved according to my needs? I can't wait to use it!" Lu Shan put down the remote control in his hand, and his tone became more formal and solemn: "The second thing I want to talk to the software developers in particular." His eyes swept across the audience, and many of them showed curious expressions. Lu Shan continued, "One of the core components of the Zemeng operating system is our self-developed Endless Compiler. This is a brand new compiler, not only tailored for the Zemeng operating system, but also prepared for the future software development ecosystem. " He opened the introduction interface of the Endless Compiler, and the Endless Compiler icon and its technical features appeared on the screen: "The Endless Compiler is fundamentally different from the common compilers on the market in terms of its underlying architecture. It uses a new computing logic architecture and is no longer based on the traditional compilation model, so developers can write code more efficiently and flexibly on this platform. In particular, the Endless Compiler has shown great advantages in multi-tasking, hardware compatibility and security. " “Most importantly, Chinese language and Chinese logic can be used.” "Through the Endless Compiler, developers can not only develop new application software for the Zemeng operating system, but also maximize the use of hardware resources and avoid the redundancy and inefficiency of traditional compilers when handling complex tasks." Lu Shan paused, and then dropped a bombshell news that excited everyone: "Next, we will launch a commercial version of the Endless Compiler, open it to the entire market, and encourage all developers to develop applications for the Zemeng operating system. Whether it is a small developer team or a large enterprise, they can use the Endless Compiler to develop application software that is highly compatible with the Zemeng system." There was a sudden burst of exclamations from the audience, and many of the audience members had irrepressible excitement in their eyes. Obviously, such an open initiative will directly encourage more developers to participate in the construction of the Zemeng ecosystem, and may even attract many teams currently developing on Windows and Apple systems to switch to the Zemeng system. “Moreover, we will provide special support plans for outstanding developers.” Lu Shan continued, his tone becoming more encouraging, “Whether it is financial support, technical support, or marketing promotion, Zemeng will provide strong support to all developers who are willing to join our ecosystem. We hope to build a truly open and diverse software ecosystem through this plan.” The applause from the audience continued, the reporters' flashlights kept flashing, and many people have begun to look forward to the birth of this new ecosystem. "This is great, an open compiler! It's a developer's dream!" said a developer sitting in the front row excitedly. "Zemeng not only opens the system, but also opens the development tools. This strategy is very smart!" another audience member echoed. The live broadcast barrage was instantly filled up: "Endless Compiler Commercial Release! Developers Rejoice!" "Ze Meng played a trump card this time, completely opening up the development tools!" “I heard that COCO Assistant was developed by this compiler!” "Windows and Apple were both closed before, but Ze Meng has really made a big move this time!" Fang Jianguo sat in the corner of the meeting room with an extremely gloomy face. He knew that Zemeng's launch of the Endless Compiler and its opening to all developers meant that the future would not only be a competition among systems, but also a competition among developers. The choices made by developers will determine the future of the operating system ecosystem. Yang Qing's expression became more and more ugly. Although Lianxiang's deep binding with Windows gave them an advantage in hardware, if future developers began to turn to the Zemeng system, Lianxiang's future would obviously become less optimistic.
Lu Shan looked at the enthusiastic reaction of the audience and a smile appeared on his face. "Everyone, this is the vision of the Zemeng operating system." Lu Shan raised his hand slightly, signaling everyone to be quiet. “We will create a free and powerful operating system through an open ecosystem, user-first design philosophy, and a new endless compiler, so that every user and developer can find their own space on this platform.” (End of this chapter)
