As we all know, the field of mobile phone operating systems has been very lively recently, because Huawei, a spoiler, has come and created a Hongmeng operating system, which has also been open sourced, which seems to be poaching Google’s corner.
Many people don’t have a special understanding of Google’s Android and Huawei’s Hongmeng. Considering that people in China are very familiar with building communities and building houses, I use the story of building houses as a metaphor for Google and Huawei. action.
Google saw that Apple built a big villa (iOS) by itself, and had a lot of fun. So I was jealous, but Google played differently and wanted everyone to play together, so I built a community and set up a standard rough room (AOSP) for all mobile phone manufacturers who were willing to come. At first, I was worried that everyone would not come, so I brought in HTC and built a sample room (Android phone G1, G2), which proved that my rough house was not worse than Apple’s big villa after decoration.
Driven by HTC, Google’s community has also attracted some people to come in to do business (third-party app development), there are food delivery, massage, and clothes sellers. Google has also opened some map stores (Google map) and post offices. (Gmail), cinema (Youtube), etc.
Later, Samsung, Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO, and VIVO all came, and they all took rough houses and renovated them into their own houses. Samsung’s is called ONEUI, Huawei’s is called EMUI, and Xiaomi’s is called MIUI, and they open the door to welcome guests…
And with the presence of these manufacturers, the supporting facilities of the community are becoming more and more complete. There are all kinds of stores and services. The traffic is increasing, and it is international. Google does not make money by selling rough products. But playing games and buying and selling digital goods through these stores requires a 30% tax (Google tax). Google’s own store (FamilyMart APP) also makes money, and it also makes money through advertising.
Later, due to the external situation, Google imposed some restrictions on Huawei, so that Huawei users could not use Google’s own stores, such as buying and selling Google maps, watching movies in Google cinemas, and using payment provided by Google (GMS cannot used).
Huawei opened its own store (HMS). For example, the map store teamed up with a third party to search for such a store and developed it by itself. However, considering that foreign friends are more recognized by Google’s store, Huawei’s business has declined, especially international friends. this one.
Later, Huawei refused to accept it. I can do the same thing that Google does, and I can do it even better. So I built a community next to Google. The model is similar to Google’s. room (open source OpenHarmony), and then Huawei renovated one of them into a model room (HarmonysOS), demonstrating it to everyone, saying that my rough foundation is better than Google’s rough room foundation, especially the Internet of Everything, the Internet of Things, smart Home furnishing is much stronger. The future is the era of 5G, and the Internet of Everything is the future.
However, due to the short construction time of the community, the supporting facilities in the early stage are not complete, such as massage shops, takeaway shops, and laundry shops. Therefore, Huawei thought of a way to build a bridge next to its model room to connect to the Google community next door. Enjoy it first. Download the Google package (compatible with Android APP).
The next thing Huawei will do is to attract a large number of businesses to settle in, just like Google. Everyone will decorate the rough houses into finished products and open the door to welcome customers…
Then attract business people, such as foot washers, massagers, takeaways, clothes sellers, movie theaters, post offices, etc. to open stores, so that more and more people will come in and play, so that the community will be considered successful and will not rot. tail.
Next, it depends on whether these merchants will settle in the community. For example, whether Xiaomi and OV will give up the house in the Google community and come to the Huawei community to renovate the house from scratch and move in to welcome guests. It’s not realistic, the cost is too high, and I’m afraid that if you enter this community, that Google community will not be allowed to enter.
There are also those who do business (Hongmeng Ecology), such as those who wash feet, massage, sell clothes, and do food delivery. Will they come to open a shop…
In addition, I can also say that Microsoft once wanted to learn from Google, and built its own community (windows phone), and brought in Nokia to decorate the model room, but later, because there were not many businesses opening stores, the community was unfinished.
Samsung also had an idea, and also set up a community (Tizen), and built a model room by itself, but failed to do it later. Currently, Samsung has put a few collaterals in it (TVs, wearables, etc.).
As for Apple, it is too strong, rich, and a local tyrant, so it built a big villa by itself, and did not need other mobile phone manufacturers to settle in. It also attracted many massage shops, foot washing shops, and takeaway shops around the villa. , the snack bar is settled, and the Apple family can have fun.
Is this proportion image? In this way, do you understand? It can be seen that building the system itself is not difficult. Many people know how to build a community, but it is not easy to set up all the supporting facilities.
