Chapter 439 Android Phone
Chapter 439 Android Phone
Just as December began, Liang Wen called.
"Chen Yu, our first mobile phone has been launched! Would you like to come and take a look?" Liang Wen said excitedly.
Chen Yu was somewhat surprised to hear this; the speed was extraordinary.
He remembered that he had given Liang Wen the Windows 10 and Android devices not long ago, right?
"How's the product? With such a tight deadline, you didn't just throw it together haphazardly, did you? That would only ruin your reputation!" Chen Yu asked.
“I knew you would have this concern. You don’t need to worry about it at all. With the technical support from Zhanlong Technology and the system you provided, the development speed is very fast. Moreover, the Android system we are using is quite good. Although it’s not as amazing as iOS, it’s definitely not bad!” Liang Wen was not offended by Chen Yu’s doubts. Instead, he agreed, because the time was too short.
The reason we have achieved this is entirely because we have invested heavily, and many of the components used are from the iPhone Zero.
Although some aspects were simplified, the Android system itself uses Java, so thanks to the tireless efforts of many top-notch engineers, the first mobile phone from Yun Technology was born.
"Send someone to pick me up!" Chen Yu said after thinking for a moment. Liang Wen's purpose in calling was simple: he wanted him to come and see the results of his hard work, just like a child showing off his work to his parents.
Chen Yu naturally couldn't refuse; he had to go and see for himself, regardless of whether the product was good or not.
Please give me some feedback.
"Okay, the car is already on its way and should arrive in about twenty minutes!" Liang Wen said with a smile.
"Looks like you were prepared all along. What would I have done if I hadn't gone?!" Chen Yu chuckled.
"Haha, if he doesn't come, I can only call him back, what else can I do?!"
"Alright, stop complaining to me. I'll go take a look. If what you make is good, I can endorse it. If it's not so good, don't blame me for not giving you face or treating you badly! You know my bottom line!" Chen Yu said with a light smile.
“Of course, if the product wasn’t good enough, I wouldn’t have the face to let you endorse it!” Liang Wen laughed immediately upon hearing this.
This matter is considered settled. As long as Chen Yu presides over the launch of this phone, then the phone is basically halfway to success.
Most importantly, using his intelligence, he has already converted one-third of iOS apps to Android, and the quality and quantity are both very impressive.
These apps are all from companies in which our company has a stake.
Chen Yu never imagined that Liang Wen would use intelligence for something like this.
iOS app design rules are derived from the C language, and Java is also derived from the C language. They are essentially the same. For iOS apps, which are essentially "crippled" (i.e., limited functionality), it is easy to adapt them to Android.
If a problem is truly unsolvable, submit it directly to a senior engineer, who will then find a way to resolve it.
With detailed Java documentation and tutorials, these top experts learn and master the language very quickly. Moreover, Java has always been a popular language, and there is no shortage of experts in the industry.
However, these things would be difficult for humans to do.
Of course, it won't be a complete copy. Instead, it will be modified to suit Android's design and operating habits, since Android phones and iOS phones have different operating habits.
"Okay!" Chen Yu hung up the phone, gave some instructions to Engineer Hu and Wang Min, and left after the driver arrived.
Of course, Chen Yu didn't say what he was going to do; he simply said that he had something to take care of.
Soon, with the driver's help, Chen Yu arrived at the cloud technology research institute.
Liang Wen was already waiting at the door.
"I feel a little ashamed that you, Mr. Liang, have been waiting for me at the door at this hour!" Chen Yu joked with a smile.
"Mr. Chen, please don't belittle me. You are my big boss, and it's my responsibility and duty to entertain you!" Liang Wen said with a light laugh.
"Haha, let's go, let me see what your work looks like, look how happy you are!" Chen Yu laughed.
"Okay!" Liang Wen and the others nodded excitedly and began to lead the way.
The group quickly arrived at their destination.
"This is our product, it's just an engineering prototype, but the mass-produced version won't be much different!" Chen Yu said, looking at the phone in Liang Wen's hand.
Chen Yu felt a sense of déjà vu about the Samsung Note phone.
It has a five-inch screen, and the key feature is that the buttons at the bottom are similar to Samsung's, but they seem to be a bit wider.
"Who designed this?!" Chen Yu exclaimed curiously! Could it be that they poached someone from Samsung?!
"They're a young lady and a young man who just joined our company! Originally, they designed the bottom part to be the same circle as iOS, but that would make it too similar to the iPhone, so we chose this shape. Not bad, right?" Liang Wen said with a smile.
"It's pretty good, but I think you could try making the button a bit more rounded. There's a shape called an oval; wouldn't it be better to design all the edges and corners as rounded rounds? Of course, this is just one of my ideas, for reference only," Chen Yu said with a light smile.
"No, Your Highness, what you said is a great idea. Wait a moment, I'll make a CAD file for everyone to see!" said a girl wearing glasses.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu immediately looked at her, smiled gently, and said, "Okay!"
Liang Wen and the others didn't object; after all, they wanted to see how Chen Yu's waistline would look!
It's just a simple button replacement, and it's very fast.
"Wait a minute, when you designed this hand, you focused on the sharp angles. You can make the oval shape a little more square and a little more flat," Chen Yu said, looking at the girl's drawing.
"Ok!"
Then we started making changes little by little.
"Let me do it!" Chen Yu felt that the girl's edited photo was still a bit too round. This phone wasn't designed like the Meizu phones of later generations, so a rounded shape wasn't quite right.
Upon hearing this, the girl immediately gave up her seat.
Chen Yu was naturally familiar with photo editing. Although he used CAD instead of Photoshop this time, it was because the sense of three-dimensionality gave people a better visual experience.
Chen Yu was naturally familiar with painting; he possessed skills in this area and even had access to anime generators, so he was quite adept at using these software programs.
