Chapter 337 Don’t be too idealistic, kid

Actually, Li Yan is not nervous.

Of course Huang Zhan is not the only one who sees the progress, he also knows it very well.

So far, the most I can say is that the foundation has been laid. Let alone a usable finished product, even if it is used for acting to demonstrate the concept, it is still too rough.

Time seemed to begin with "May", and Li Yan naturally felt more urgent.

This concept machine is something he has in mind, and no one knows what the final product will look like except himself.

They were solving the problems raised by Li Yan and meeting his needs piecemeal, but after reaching the "basics", the progress was not very optimistic.

The cost of communication has become extremely high. Li Yan sometimes has to spend a lot of time just to let others understand what he wants to do.

The scariest thing is that everyone starts to have a lot of ideas. After Li Yan puts forward his appeal, the first reaction he gets is often not whether it can be done, but "Why should we do it?"

So he still had to spend a lot of effort to explain. Obviously, it is easy for everyone to fall into the idea of ​​"doing the best if you want to do it", and it is difficult to understand Li Yan's idea of ​​​​"doing enough to show off".

Therefore, Li Yan can predict the level of results produced at this stage.

At this moment, Li Yan and Huang Zhan are waiting in the VIP reception room of Weide Map Company.

Weide Map’s headquarters only has a five-story office building, which is far less grand than Boss Huang’s Chuangzu Building.

However, its location in the center of Shangjing can be regarded as a proof of strength.

Weide was established in 2002. It started as a GIS service provider. In 2003, it developed data collection tools and editing and processing platforms with independent intellectual property rights. In 2004, it obtained the navigation electronic map issued by the National Bureau of Surveying and Mapping. Class A surveying and mapping qualification, becoming the first private enterprise in the country to obtain this qualification.

It can be said that in terms of technology accumulation, Guard Map is at the leading level in the country.

In recent years, we have also been working hard on electronic navigation, and we are considered the leader in domestic Internet navigation.

From this point of view, the theme that Li Yan wanted to communicate still touched the heart of Weide Map, otherwise their boss Dong Zhenchang would not have come forward in person.

The CEOs of new technology companies tend to be younger. Dong Zhenchang looks about forty years old, slightly fat, with facial features squeezed together. He can barely be described as naive.

People in the world call him the "Smiling Buddha".

It can be seen that the temperament is non-aggressive.

He should also be a technical talent.

"I'm sorry, I've been busy with official work and kept you two waiting for a long time." Dong Zhenchang also spoke softly.

“Mr. Dong, we are the ones causing trouble.” Huang Zhan smiled and stood up to shake hands.

Li Yan glanced at him. He had complained about Huang Zhan last time, saying that he was not as ignorant of the world as the legend said.

Then Huang Zhan rolled his eyes in a rare way. To be honest, those who don't know how to deal with the world are called fools. But those who understand the ways of the world but don't play this trick either don't have to travel in the world, or they are top-notch talents.

Huang Zhan is not a great talent. He still needs to travel around the world. He is a boss who needs to make money.

Usually being able to hide at home, not seeing guests, being a homebody and a hermit, is purely a personal space obtained by making money. Now that Chuangzu w8 is involved in plagiarism, he has become an office parasite.

Huang Zhan knew that Li Yan was thinking about this again, but he had to continue to show this "adult skill":

"This is Li Yan. It's quite difficult to introduce him. I told you before.”

"I know that I won the first place in the Informatics Olympiad both at home and abroad, which is very impressive. Are you guys doing research too? There are really more and more young geniuses nowadays. They started making products a long time ago, and the environment is still much better than we did back then. "Yes." Dong Zhenchang said with a smile. He did not make the tea himself, but waved to a graceful receptionist to make it.

"Mr. Dong, let's just drink water." Li Yan said.

Dong Zhenchang said "Oh" and waved to let the beauty at the front desk leave, "Li Yan, do you know Yu Keyu?"

This name... I've seen it before.

No. 2 of the BGI Youth Excellence Class comes from the junior high school of the High School Affiliated to Beijing Institute of Technology.

"I don't know him."

"He is considered to be the most powerful junior high school student in Beijing. He won the first prize in the junior high school group of the Informatics Olympiad and the first prize in the National Middle School Student Science and Technology Innovation Competition. He came to us to learn about electronics last time. The application of maps is said to be the basis for autonomous driving in the future. "Dong Zhenchang smiled, "It's really scary to be young now, and you are still thinking about autonomous driving at this age."

"Research on artificial intelligence?" Huang Zhan also listened with great interest.

"You guys need to learn about all cutting-edge things. Who knows if you will come up with something great in the future."

What do you mean? When Mr. Dong came up, he didn't say anything else. He first severely praised the talented young people who came to Beijing. Where is the knock on the mountain and the tiger?

But...

“I’ve heard of his name.” Li Yan smiled, “Does Mr. Dong know about BGI’s Youth Excellence Class?”

“I’ve never heard of it. ”

Li Yan glanced at Huang Zhan and thought that you missed introducing the most awesome name.

Huang Zhan blinked indifferently, who told you that you have so many honors? It is not good to say too much, but will it be easily missed?

However, Mr. Dong didn't seem to pay much attention to this classmate Yu Keyu. He most likely wanted to use Li Yan as a gun after knowing his identity as an "awesome junior high school student".

“This is a special class composed of one hundred junior high school students selected by BGI from all over the country. He is the second person in BGI’s Junior Excellence Class.”

“That’s really awesome. He can go there. To the second place in the country." Dong Zhenchang nodded in approval.

“I am number one.”

Dong Zhenchang picked up the water glass and put it back.

"Mr. Huang, you didn't say this kid was so powerful."

"I told you that Qingxinao is number one at home and abroad."

It seems that Mr. Dong In fact, I don’t know much about the value of the competition...

But the result is good. President Dong’s use of Yu Keyu as a gun still has some effect, which in turn proves Li Yan’s value.

"Mr. Dong, I understand that Wei De made an electronic map for Pineapple Mobile Phone last year. Is this your attempt at smartphone navigation?"

"Yes."

"Is it a success or a failure?"

Huang Zhan couldn't hold back his expression when asked this question.

Did you ask that, brat?

It has long been concluded that Miyou Map is a failed product.

"Of course it's not a success."

"Why do you think it is?"

Mr. Dong still kept smiling, "Obviously, the current usage scenarios of navigation in society are still focused on driving. There is no personal application space. After all, walking is a short distance, and navigation is not needed for short distances.”

“Maybe there is another possibility.”

Mr. He nodded and signaled Li Yan to continue.

"There is no application scenario for personal navigation. It only uses the function of navigation itself without linking it to other needs, so the demand is equated with personal way finding."

"You said."

Dong Zhenchang became very interested in what Li Yan had to say.

But when Li Yan finished speaking, he smiled and waved his hand: "It's a good idea, but it's just a good idea."

Damn it, you just kept raising your eyebrows, I Seen it all!

"I don't just have ideas."

Mr. Dong's hand stopped in the air and he glanced at Huang Zhan again, "I know, you said you already have basic research and a prototype of mobile software... …The idea is really good. It’s a good idea to integrate the navigation map into daily needs such as takeout, taxi-hailing, and even various location check-ins, store ratings, etc., and directly turn it into a portal. But the cost involved is not a small amount. There are so many links to get through."

Dong Zhenchang took a sip of water, and his tone gradually became professional and serious - just like a university professor speaking to a student defending his defense, "Let me ask you, these. Who makes the food delivery and taxi-hailing software? Who will serve it?”

“I will help the team.”

“I mean, you will take the lead.”

"Of course."

"You should know the messy situation of mobile phone systems now, right? Do you know why we chose Pineapple as the first stop? Because only their system can be seen to occupy market share, and the others , To be honest, don’t be angry, Mr. Huang, I’m not optimistic about the win system either.”

Huang Zhan didn’t say anything and signaled Mr. Dong to continue communicating with Li Yan. "We will have a system that will complement these software functions."

"Who develops the system?" Dong Zhenchang glanced at Huang Zhan again.

"I have a team, and Mr. Huang is also providing technical support."

"Are you taking the lead?"

"Yes."

Dong Zhenchang groaned twice, Fingers tapped rhythmically on the table.

"Li Yan, you are a very powerful child. Mr. Huang's visit today is also a platform. I hope I can talk to you on an equal footing. Then I will ignore your "can you do it" question? Some disrespectful issues.”

"Thank you."

"If you say so, it means that the system and the software are bound, and both prosper and suffer. To say it sounds good, it complements both, but to say it doesn't sound good, no matter how good the software is, Well, if your system is not sold, you will be dragged down. The market is indeed chaotic now, but how can you survive if a new system suddenly comes out?"

He said it very sincerely.

"Mr. Dong said no more, I still bind the mobile phone."

Dong Zhenchang felt that Li Yan's answer was very insincere.

"But I didn't see anything."

"I will see it soon. Developer Conference, please be sure to attend, Mr. Dong."

"I will go. "

"Mr. Dong, I still have a few technical questions to ask you to verify the feasibility of some of my ideas."

Dong Zhenchang's expression was a bit complicated, "Okay, you. Ask.”

This exchange lasted all afternoon, and Mr. Dong's expression became increasingly complicated.

It was really difficult to make him believe that Li Yan's "leadership" could produce a shocking mobile phone in a short period of time...

I haven’t seen any products now. He is not a romantic who pats his head.

But the concept proposed by Li Yan really brightened his eyes, and he couldn't help but imagine the future after success.

However, this future is somewhat elusive.

However, Wade has been a leader in the past few years and knows the importance of "trying". The best time to become king is during the melee.

Besides, even if he agreed to cooperate with Li Yan and provide him with some map services... it would just be another attempt to use the mini map on the Pineapple phone.

It’s not like I’ve never suffered a loss before, how can I have a blessing?

If this bite of cake is eaten by someone else, it will be a blood loss.

He sincerely affirmed that a talented young man like Yu Keyu, and the Li Yan in front of him was stronger than him.

Although Yu Keyu has an outrageous scientific research background, isn't there Huang Zhan sitting next to Li Yan?

This child should be held in the palm of Linjiang's hands...

While eating this meal, Dong Zhenchang convinced himself.

It was mainly when Li Yan chatted with him about specific technical issues that he gradually built up his confidence.

This seems to be a bit of a head start.

During the meal, he suddenly mentioned something:

“Li Yan, in fact, these services you mentioned can also be integrated into our own Guardian Map software to become a life portal with navigation function. , why not develop this software in the name of Wei De and then adapt it to your system?"

Huang Zhan put down his chopsticks and was about to speak, but was stopped by Dong Zhenchang's eyes.

Li Yan finished the soup in the bowl, then wiped his mouth and said:

"Mr. Dong, you don't think I'm a fool, do you?"

"I don't think so, of course I don't think so." Mr. Dong kept smiling and put down his chopsticks. "You are very smart. I appreciate it very much. I also like your ideas, so I want to tell you this."

Huang Zhan's expression relaxed a lot.

It seems that what Dong Zhenchang said today is very sincere. This Smiling Buddha is not really trying to trick Li Yan.

"You will encounter this kind of conversation not only once in the future." Dong Zhenchang glanced at Huang Zhan again, "Mr. Huang, have you already vaccinated Li Yan?"

"It's enough if he gives me vaccinations." Huang Zhan laughed.

"I thought someone so young had little social experience to be fooled." Mr. Dong also laughed, but quickly returned to a serious expression - although it was difficult to be serious with his appearance, "Your ideas are very exciting. From your perspective You will come to see Mr. Huang and I will see that you are not only passionate, but at least you know that you need to do this, and you don’t just have to do your own research. This is a good thing."

Li Yan actually probably knows. What will he say.

“But cooperation in society is not cooperation in schools.” Mr. Dong said seriously, “Since you also understand the importance of cooperation, then what I just asked you is not It only happens once or twice, and I won’t always ask openly like this.”

Huang Zhan looked a little touched and sighed deeply.

“Child, it is important to be creative and have ideas, but in the end who can realize this thing will reap the fruits. What you are going to say at the press conference is tantamount to being roasted among wolves. Of course, everyone is salivating over the whole sheep. The question is how do you ensure that you are the one who eats sheep?”

Talking about ideals in the face of interests is very naive.

"Cut the meat with the knife in your hand." Li Yan raised the knife on his right hand - although it was not used for this meal at all, "Maybe I am the only one who can roast this lamb."

"Core technology is not that easy to master." Mr. Dong said.

In fact, Huang Zhan also has the same concerns about this.

“I know that the core technology is essentially a year away.” Li Yan said something the two bosses did not expect, “I have said it many times, this is a concept display. , let everyone here, let this society, let the Chinese people who care about this stuff have some imagination and a little interest. "

"I probably know what you mean. You want to make a splash at the developer conference, get investment, and major companies have cooperated to give you technical support?"

"Yes."

Dong Zhenchang shook his head, "Then you may not understand what I mean. This path is indeed feasible, but everything I just told you will only make it more serious."

"Everyone will regard me as an ideal Try and make mistakes with me. As long as I am willing to give enough benefits to the partners, they will become wolves to protect the food. "Ideal try? Try and make mistakes with you?" The two bosses frowned. Dong Zhenchang raised his eyebrows and raised his voice, "Why do you think so? They can completely listen to your concept and study their own stuff."

"Now is the time for melee, but they will choose the more acceptable and feasible ideas in your idea to study, and they will be realized soon. What Mr. Dong actually means is that in case no one comes to you for cooperation or it is just in name. Cooperate with us, and then use your own resources to play the official cards before you..." Huang Zhan said hastily.

"Two bosses, you have overlooked one thing - 'expectation'."

"Well, tell me."

"Can this phone turn on? Whether you can get support actually depends on whether people buy the final product. This does not depend on what the major partners think, but on whether the public will buy it and whether they expect it."

Dong Zhenchang sighed lightly. He took a breath and picked up the chopsticks again, "You're right. No matter what, I look forward to your wonderful performance in a month."

He felt that Li Yan had been saying some naive and correct things. Because they were correct, there was no point in discussing them. At the same time, they were naive, so there was no need to discuss them in depth.

Everyone has been young and frivolous, let alone such a top genius.

Let him hit the wall and suffer...

This kid has provided some precious ideas. It would not be a loss for Wei De to try to cooperate. Anyway, which system will dominate the world in the future? , he will adapt.

If Li Yan really succeeds, he will make a lot of money; if Li Yan cannot succeed, he will just treat it as a front-end attempt to gain experience.

Dong is using you as an ideal to try and make mistakes, but how many companies would think so?

Especially those mobile phone manufacturers in Beijing who are working hard to eat the huge cake of smartphones.

Li Yan said nothing, he had already said what needed to be said. The answer to the question "Why do people expect it?" is essentially his core competitiveness this time.

A mobile phone with an advanced concept and a legendary young genius.

And two days after this conference, there was another conference on the other side of the ocean that changed the world.

The chemical reaction will not begin until everything related to that press conference reaches China.
