Chapter 179: Lu Yu's Development Plan!

The next day, Lu Yu arrived at Ke Da, at Lao Li's office.

Lu Yu sat opposite, with Lao Li and Chen Hao.

This time Lu Yu came to discuss mobile phone system development with the other party.

Lu Yu had just sat down when Chen Hao spoke up, saying, "Xiao Yu, I'll speak plainly: can you join this project now?"

Obviously, Chen Hao also knows what's happening online now.

Professor Chen also looked at Lu Yu with a worried expression.

Lu Yu smiled and said, "For now, what we need to do is build the research center and plan the R&D team; these tasks require care, but they won't take up all my energy."

"Besides, I'm actually quite free right now."

"I've already handed over game development to my team."

"Also, in my plan, my team will also participate in this mobile phone system R&D project."

Both Chen Hao and Professor Chen were actually stunned.

In their view, Lu Yu had just caused such a huge stir yesterday, yet he seems like someone unconcerned.

It looks like he's not pretending!

So… what on earth is that little head of Lu Yu thinking?

But of course, at this point Chen Hao couldn't continue questioning.

He thought for a moment, looked at Lu Yu, and said, "So, what do you think about this project?"

Lu Yu said, "I do have some ideas."

"First, as I said before, we will place the project research center at Ke Da."

"Starting now, we can begin building the project research center."

Chen Hao nodded lightly, indicating acceptance of Lu Yu's statement.

Lu Yu continued, "Here I must say, I want to make Ke Da's laboratories a second research focus."

"That is, I hope this project can let students, or all aspiring individuals, participate."

"This…" Chen Hao's brows immediately furrowed, and he opened his mouth to rebut.

Technology, or rather science and technology, is definitely the primary productive force nowadays and needs to be kept strictly secret.

But Lu Yu's current line of thinking implies openness to the outside.

This naturally makes Chen Hao doubtful and wanting to oppose.

"Let me say my thoughts first." Lu Yu didn't let Chen Hao speak.

"First, we share the recognition that foreign technology is already ahead of us."

"Just as you've investigated, the Fruit Phone's system has surpassed the era, something we cannot surpass now."

"In this situation, if we want to breakthrough, we are racing for time, ideas, and technology…"

"I trust my team, and I trust your team, but that's still not enough."

"We need more ideas, and we need more people to join in."

"Pooling collective wisdom is always better than working behind closed doors, yielding more surplus."

"Of course, letting more people participate doesn't mean we want to fully expose our R&D results to the outside world."

"We can preserve our core competitiveness."

That is Lu Yu's idea.

In the era when the Fruit System dominates the world, the Android System still has a foothold precisely because it is open source.

Countless programmers have put their ideas into it, which is how the spark of wisdom arises.

Even so, the Android System cannot truly stand equal to the Fruit System.

Now the Fruit System has not yet achieved domination; this is the only opportunity!

Therefore, Lu Yu will have this idea.

But obviously, Chen Hao still cannot accept it.

"I admit what you say makes sense."

"But the truly competitive core parts cannot be joined by ordinary people."

"Then why should we let more people participate?"

"Your approach is likely to expose our core."

"Benefits and costs are not necessarily proportional."

Lu Yu understands Chen Hao's concerns.

People's minds in this era are ultimately not open enough, or this description is not accurate enough.

This is a limitation of the times, and also a limitation of vision.

Having not seen the prosperous scene of myriad flowers contending in later ages, one naturally cannot believe it.

"Now we haven't even achieved any results, have we?"

"Even the research direction we're studying hasn't been decided."

"Then what talk is there of input and output?"

"How about this: we temporarily proceed my way, and when we actually have results, we'll revisit today's issue."

Lu Yu ended the debate with that.

Then the three began discussing the construction of the research center.

Chen Hao felt that as long as there was enough space, that sufficed, after all research relies on talent, not the so-called environment.

Lu Yu, however, denied it.

"This research center arose because of our current project, but it shouldn't be limited to just this project."

Lu Yu had high hopes for the research center.

Chen Hao still disagreed.

But Lu Yu silenced Chen Hao with just one sentence.

"The money is mine!"

Yes, having money is that domineering.

After the research center's issues were resolved, the three brought up the R&D team issue again.

Lu Yu had his own team, namely Wang Meng and the others.

Chen Hao also had his own team.

These two teams would coexist in a competitive manner.

Professor Chen was the director of the entire research center, responsible for coordination and technical support.

Chen Hao and Lu Yu were respectively the team leaders of their own teams.

Regarding the issues of the Mobile Phone System Research Center, it can be considered temporarily settled.

The next steps can only continue after the R&D center is established and completed.

At this time, Lu Yu actually had many ideas.

Lu Yu was already thinking about whether to bring Xiao Ren in as well.

But at this time, Xiao Ren was still unknown and had not yet started mobile phone business.

So Lu Yu ultimately gave up that idea.

……

The next day, Lu Yu came to Grand.

In the office, Wang Meng and Xie Lin were already waiting there.

Today, there was one more person in the office, Xiao Ma.

Xiao Ma came over specifically.

Recently, Penguin's development has been rapid, and Penguin Space has already gone online.

Currently, Penguin has actually become the leading social software in Huaxia, with its user base continuously increasing.

After Penguin Space was launched, Penguin's development accelerated even further.

Penguin can now be said to have a fierce development momentum.

Xiao Ma came to Grand, first of all naturally to report to Lu Yu about Penguin-related matters.

Don't forget, Lu Yu is now the largest shareholder of Penguin!

Secondly, Xiao Ma also cares a lot about Energetic Dance Troupe.

The first wave of Penguin's user growth was thanks to Lu Yu's game.

So this time, the birth of Energetic Dance Troupe, can it again bring Penguin a second wave of large-scale user growth?

Xiao Ma is full of expectations for this.
