Chapter 892: Get the moon first when you are near the water
It is not just empty talk. As the birthplace of satellite positioning, GPS was first in Amerika, and it was the first to open up from the military field to the civilian field. Amerika was also the fastest place in commercialization of GPS.
A number of navigation equipment companies based on GPS were born, including Magellan, Tianbao Navigation, and Garmin.
However, the navigation equipment of companies such as Magellan is mainly used in professional surveying and mapping companies, freighter marine navigation and other industries.
Xiao Kecheng is also engaged in the research and development of navigation equipment at Magellan. He can be said to be the earliest technical engineer in China's contact navigation research and development.
With his R&D experience, Gaode Map can save a lot of detours.
Sometimes, it is also useful to have experience in studying abroad or research and development.
If Xiao Kecheng was in China before, he had no room for research and development in the navigation field, and he would have no funds or place to use it. In recent years, he had been considered gilded...
Just like the professor Gao who entered the market with himself, for 30 years at America, he has cultivated a large number of top talents in the industry in the industry for the country with the help of America's huge funds and scientific research equipment.
Then the time was right, the domestic industry had a foundation, and he brought the trained apprentices and returned directly to the country, developing the domestic industry.
Compared with Professor Gao, Xiao Kecheng must be less than good at playing, but Dongling Hi-Tech also needs to rely on the navigation technology that Xiao Kecheng has trained in Magellan over the years!
"Dr. Xiao, please come back and take the helm of the Gaode map. I believe you know what you need to do!
I hope that Gaode Map can become the best in-car navigation system in China! "Li Dongling looked at Xiao Kecheng and said.
When it comes to professional fields, Xiao Kecheng obviously talks more, "The most important thing about Gaode Map is now!"
"The first thing is to obtain map surveying and mapping qualifications, and then send map surveying personnel to collect all domestic roads!"
"The second thing is to develop a qualified on-board navigation system!"
"The third thing is to develop a navigation device that can receive GPS signals and use the in-vehicle system software developed by Gaode himself!"
The navigation map is different from later generations. The network is everywhere in later generations. No matter what device you need to connect to, even if it is a map, it is an online map for the Internet.
But now it is different, and there is no network available at all, so electronic maps are also offline maps. The location is obtained through GPS and then match with the map database in the offline map to determine the user's location.
Then, through the navigation system, you can plan routes, provide navigation, etc. for driving people. Don’t expect accuracy. In addition, you cannot avoid it when encountering road blockages, road construction, etc.
There are disadvantages, but it is better than buying a map and studying it for most of the time, taking the wrong path, and finally spending the night in the wilderness. You may be targeted by a gas rat in the middle of the night, or even encountering a robbery. It is better to be robbed!
"Map surveying and mapping qualifications, Dongling Hi-Tech has helped Gaode Map to apply to the Land and Resources Bureau and other departments!
I believe that the news will be heard back soon! ”
Li Dongling looked at Xiao Kecheng and said that Li Dongling felt that there should be no big problem with obtaining national map surveying and mapping qualifications.
If it is a new company that wants to get this qualification, I don’t know if it will be until the Year of the Monkey and Horse Month.
However, Gaode map is endorsed by Dongling Hi-Tech, and it is worthy of endorsing Gaode with Dongling Hi-Tech's current status in the domestic technology industry.
In addition, the cost of donating a satellite from manufacturing to launch was tens of millions of dollars. If you still can’t get the map surveying qualification, it would be a bit unreasonable.
"For technical matters, I believe in Dr. Xiao!"
"In terms of funding and treatment, Dr. Xiao must have known that my only requirement for Gaode is that it is the best-used and most accurate vehicle navigation system in China!
Gaode Map will charge a fee in the early stage, and it is expected to cost 15 yuan per month. The car owners who use it will feel that it is worth the money! ”
Although the purpose of the establishment of Gaode Map is to support Dongling Hi-Tech's automobile department.
If you want to let the Land Rover owner who bought Dongling Hi-Tech Automobile Department not get lost when traveling on the wilderness, it is just for that sentence. The noble Land Rover owner, the Gaode Map continues to navigate you, and ask if the style has been established...
But in fact, I'm afraid that the navigation device of Gaode Map is launched and uses more of the long-distance truck owners. They need a navigation device to travel for life.
When Xiao Kecheng heard Li Dongling's words, he looked shocked. He had long heard of the style of Dongling Hi-Tech Company. Even when I am abroad, I have heard some colleagues mentioning the style of Dongling Hi-Tech, providing sufficient funds for R&D personnel, and not pointing fingers at R&D personnel, and not causing any incidents of laymen leading experts. This kind of R&D atmosphere is rare even when I am abroad.
Of course, correspondingly, Dongling Hi-Tech's technical requirements and R&D intensity are also well-known in the industry, and there are many overtime work.
However, overtime is overtime, but overtime pay is never a cent less, and the benefits are also full, including the status of technicians in Dongling Hi-Tech, which is equal to that of managers, at least on the surface!
Dongling Hi-Tech spent a lot of money to be the general manager of Xiao Kecheng, including paying him a penalty for competing agreements, and providing him with an annual salary of more than $300,000, which is not considered a bonus or something.
In addition, if Gaode Map is successfully developed, Xiao may also get an equity reward of about 3%. Gaode Map will also have the opportunity to go public in the future, at least the big cake is very fragrant.
"I promise that I will develop a top-level navigation system for Gaode Map!" Xiao Kecheng said to Li Dongling.
"I believe in Dr. Xiao!" Li Dongling said with a smile.
But thinking about Li Dongling's words just now, Gaode Map charges early, which made Xiao Kecheng tentatively ask Li Dongling, "Mr. Li, will Gaode Map no longer charge in the future?"
Nowadays, navigation equipment around the world, including Magellan, which Shokecheng has been overseas, relies on paid navigation systems to maintain survival, otherwise how can we fill our stomachs?
"The future is the era of the Internet, and map navigation will also change from offline maps to online maps!
By that day, no matter how much market share Gaode Map has, it needs to keep pace with the times and make changes, and will never wait to be self-satisfied and be left behind in the Internet era! ”
Li Dongling looked at Xiao Kecheng and gave him a vaccination in advance. "In the future, those who need electronic map navigation will never be limited to car users, or even more people traveling, or traveling abroad, etc. They may also need to use map navigation!
In the future, Gaode Map will also work with Shenzhou Mobile to develop a mobile version!
The functions of Gaode Map are not just car navigation, but also provide real-time speed, walking navigation, cycling, and bus route planning.
Gaode Map's revenue also needs to shift from software charges to advertising revenue and membership revenue, and to place advertisements for some hotels, restaurants, gas stations, scenic spots, etc.! ”
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
Kai Lide, the leader of domestic in-vehicle navigation system in the previous life, was defeated by a group of opponents using free navigation. Li Dongling would not allow the incident to happen to Gaode Map, which belongs to the Dongling Hi-Tech camp.
At that time, Kailide had so many good cards, but he played so badly that he couldn't bear to charge 15 yuan a month. As a result, the market was stolen, and when his opponent was acquired by a giant company, he sold out his net worth of more than 10 billion yuan.
As for whether Gaode Map will lose money after it is free in the future, it will not be possible that even if it loses, it can be made back from other fields. In industries such as taxi, takeout, and logistics, it is impossible to ask Gaode Map to attract traffic and advertise for them!
When Xiao Kecheng heard this, the theory that the wool came from the pig made him confused. He was a good at technician, but this kind of tricks was not his strength.
However, Xiao Kecheng knew that the most important thing for him now was to develop a sufficiently qualified in-car system for Gaode.
If we can’t help Gaode Map develop a system now, let alone the transformation of Gaode Map in the Internet era, it is hard to say whether he can stay at Gaode until that time!
...
There are three cars in front and behind, driving quickly on the section from Hanxi Provincial Town to Pingyang. This section from Hanxi Provincial Town to Pingyang is currently the best section of the entire Hanxi Intercity Highway.
After all, the two best economic cities in the western Han Dynasty are now, namely the provincial capital and Pingyang. The municipal government has money, so the natural repair and maintenance of roads is much better than the roads in other regions.
Passing vehicles will see many foreign faces in these cars, including an old man in his sixties, who is lowering his head and constantly revising the drawings in his hand.
If it were people in the construction industry, they would probably be surprised when they saw this foreign old man. This foreign old man is Norman Foster, the representative of the "high-tech" in the global construction industry.
HSBC, Frankfurt Bank, London City Hall, Germany's new parliamentary building and other landmark buildings all over the world are all made by this old man.
If you are not familiar with these, then DJI's Sky City headquarters, Yanjing International Airport, and Apple Spaceship headquarters in his previous life were also made by him.
Norman Foster is also one of the most valuable architects in the global architect industry. Foster Architecture is named after him. He is also a jazz conferred by the Queen of England.
But knowing that Norman Foster appeared in Hansey would still surprise people in the global construction industry.
Where Norman Foster appears, it means there are big projects and landmark buildings may appear.
And now, in the construction industry, what is the most famous project in Hanxi? There is only one, Dongling Hi-Tech New Headquarters Building!
