Chapter 46: Breakthrough of the Tos System!
Zhang Ruyue's words pleased both sets of parents.
However, Zhang Shiqing's lips still curled up slightly. He had only met his little darling a few times and she was already showing signs of weakness. Coupled with his friend's arrogant behavior, he was even more furious.
"I heard from Xiaofei that you also do research for his company."
Upon hearing the name "Ah Fei," Zhang's mother couldn't contain her smile any longer; she wished she could immediately put the bracelet on her daughter's wrist...
"Actually, it's nothing much. I just did some research with my classmates and helped him understand the local culture in Africa."
Zhang Mingzhu glanced at Shen Fei, then shyly lowered her head in front of her parents. "Actually, he helped me more, providing a lot of valuable firsthand information."
We chatted for a while, and then it was time to finish our meal. The atmosphere at the dinner table was even more harmonious.
Zhang Shiqing and Shen Guoming reminisced about the past, especially the time when they chose different paths.
Zhang Ruyue and Jiang Shiqing were chatting about their childhood memories.
"Old Shen, your son is remarkable." Zhang Shiqing raised his glass and drank it down in one gulp.
"This isn't me bragging; the Ministry is paying attention to what Transsion has been doing in Africa. Just a few days ago, the director of the Foreign Trade Department asked me what exactly this company's strength is, and how it has quietly expanded its market share."
Shen Guomin's face was full of smugness, but he still said without any modesty, "Young people just mess around and get lucky."
"It's not just luck." Zhang Shiqing's tone suddenly became more serious. "I've also investigated, and Xiao Fei is indeed different in this respect."
The product truly addresses local needs, and it's not just for out-of-school children; it genuinely respects local culture.
Of course, their methods are also quite sophisticated. But that's more like it; we're here to do business, not to help others.
If you want to do business well, then do it well. If you don't want to do business well, then at least know how to use force. After all, we want to develop together. But if they go too far, we can't tolerate this group of people.
Shen Fei kept serving food to Zhang Mingzhu, but when he saw Zhang Shiqing looking at him with a smile, he quickly turned his head away.
"Uncle Zhang..."
"Xiaofei, you did the right thing in the African market. Chinese companies that want to go global can't just think about making quick money; they need to establish a foothold and achieve win-win results."
Of course, the methods must be effective; we've got your backing.
"Uncle Zhang, you flatter me." Shen Fei raised his glass at this moment, the rim of the glass slightly lower.
Seeing that the two had started chatting, Zhang Mingzhu continued to sit quietly next to Shen Fei and eat her meal. Occasionally, she would serve food to the elders.
Mother Shen saw this and was delighted.
After the meal, the two elders continued to drink tea in the living room. They knew that the two of them couldn't relax with them there, so they told them to go for a walk in the yard by themselves.
……
Under the lychee tree, Zhang Mingzhu looked up at the tree full of white blossoms and exclaimed in surprise, "It's so beautiful! There are no lychee trees in the north at all."
"I'll send you some when the fruit comes out," Shen Fei said, gazing at the blossoming trees. "The lychees from this tree are especially sweet."
"Okay!" Zhang Mingzhu turned to look at him, her eyes bright, and then suddenly snuggled into Shen Fei's chest. "Shen Fei, thank you."
"What are you thanking me for?"
Despite saying that, Shen Fei still held her tightly.
"Thank you for being so thoughtful today," she said softly.
"I know you probably don't like this kind of occasion, but you've cooperated very well for my sake."
Shen Fei hugged the girl in his arms again: "Actually, it's not just cooperating; I like her too."
Just then, a gentle breeze blew by, and the petals drifted down, some landing on Zhang Mingzhu's hair. Shen Fei instinctively reached out to pick them off.
"that……"
Zhang Mingzhu smiled again: "I'm very happy today, my boyfriend."
Shen Fei nodded in surprise as well. Actually, he originally wanted to ask him what his plans were for the summer vacation, but... this unexpected surprise was really nice.
"So, what are your plans for summer vacation?"
"Our college has a research project in Africa, and I'm planning to sign up," Zhang Mingzhu said. "It's in Kenya for about a week."
"The time is early July."
Shen Fei calculated the time: "We have a product that needs to be launched in Kenya at that time, so... I'll make some arrangements and go with you."
Wait, Shen Fei suddenly thought again. Huang Tianya had been involved in quite a few big things lately. Although they were normal business dealings, who could be sure…
"Is it because our products are mainly in the African market that you're willing to go there?"
Zhang Mingzhu didn't speak, but she nodded subconsciously. Shen Fei instantly understood her thoughts, so he tapped her head again with his hand.
"Mingzhu, if it's for my sake, then it's better not to go. We've recently snatched a lot of profits from Wall Street, so for safety's sake, it's better not to go."
Zhang Mingzhu looked up at him curiously, and after receiving confirmation, she softly hummed in agreement.
Then after a while: "Well, safety is the most important thing. I won't go then. Anyway, the list hasn't been submitted yet, so it can still be changed."
Inside the house, Jiang Shihua and Zhang Ruyue also wore maternal smiles. They knew the children were progressing quickly, but they didn't know exactly how far they had gone.
Now I know the answer. A weight has been lifted from my heart.
…………
June arrived quickly, and Transsion launched the new T80 upgraded version in Africa, adding cameras to the entire series, with the low-end version having 100,000 pixels and the high-end version having 500,000 pixels.
In addition to the facelift and upgrade, a brand new T85 phone was also released. The processor has been changed to MTK6223. This phone chip is slightly inferior to MTK6225, but it still supports photography.
Although it only supports 10-pixel lenses, after enhancements at the enhancement center, it can support 50-pixel lenses. Of course, the standard T85 still comes with a 10-pixel camera.
Besides the new mobile phone, a cheer erupted in the Taishan Project's dedicated conference room, as they had also achieved amazing success.
Liu Zhihong stood in front of the crowd, his eyes bloodshot, but more than anything, he was excited.
We are proud to announce that Phase I of the project has been completed ahead of schedule.
……
Soon, the corresponding meeting was officially convened, and Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC) attended the meeting.
"Everyone, after more than six months of hard work, our TOS 1.5 version is officially finalized today. Compared to version 1.0 three months ago, we have achieved the following breakthroughs."
The previous version 1.0 was simply a wrapper around open-source Android, but the current version 1.5 has indeed made many upgrades.
First, the underlying scheduler adopts the self-developed Taishan scheduling engine, which improves multi-tasking smoothness by about 20%.
At the same time, certain interfaces are reserved to better adapt to Transsion's self-developed chips, and power consumption is expected to decrease by about 20%.
Most importantly, the operating language is supported. This version currently supports 12 languages, including English, French, and Swahili, and is still undergoing further adaptation.
"Most importantly..." Liu Zhihong switched the PowerPoint presentation. "We've already included an upgrade path in the system. Once Tos2.0 is fully developed, users can seamlessly upgrade to version 1.5."
Applause immediately filled the meeting room. Shen Fei sat in the main seat, carefully examining each page of data.
When the Mount Tai project was launched before the Lunar New Year, everyone was shocked.
He thought that Transsion's decision to develop its own operating system was no different from him going crazy, but now...
