Chapter 229: Are There Really Aliens?
After the Tianqi Group press conference concluded.
The whole world was stirred by it.
Tianwang Communication System.
Tianyun Operating System.
Tianshu 1 mobile phone.
All three products sparked heated discussions among countless people, especially the final Tianshu 1; it is a terminal consumer electronic product, directly related to every mobile phone user.
On the day the press conference ended, Tianshu 1 was listed on major online shopping platforms, as well as the Tianqi Group official website and Tiantian Forum.
Many netizens snapped it up immediately, instantly pushing it onto the best-seller lists of major platforms.
Meanwhile, major enterprises were not idle at this time.
Because at the end of the press conference, Tianqi Group CEO Liu Qingli announced that the Tianyun Operating System and Tianwang Communication System were both open for external licensing.
If we want to add satellite communication functions, we must purchase chips from Tianqi Core Technology Company, abandoning cooperation with several internationally renowned mobile processor manufacturers such as Lianhuake and Changtong.
Only Longwei Company, whose major businesses—such as communication equipment, operating systems, and low-end mobile phones—also had direct competition with Tianqi Group, suffered a significant blow under the impact of that series of news.
The white-haired elder in the main seat looked at him calmly and said:
Since Tianqi Software Company offered such a reasonable price, everyone readily agreed.
"A trump card?"
"Or does he still want to attempt an assassination?"
Tianqi Software Company agreed decisively and provided the standard contract that had already been prepared.
The most critical thing is.
There is no way.
"Therefore, it is normal that he, who only became a high-level member a few years ago, does not know about this matter."
"Could it be that he still wants to start a war?"
"This is one of the greatest secrets of the Yongji Society; even for high-level members, we usually do not disclose it proactively. Only when we encounter matters involving this secret do we discuss it together."
"The Yongji Society is the master of the entire world. I do not allow anyone to challenge our authority. My opinion is to spare no cost to eliminate Su Xin and dismantle the Tianqi Group."
At the speed of Tianqi Group's development, if we continue to endure, the Yongji Society will inevitably decline completely and lose its ability to control the entire world.
"Commercial means won't work, war won't work, and underhanded tactics won't work either. How do you intend to defeat them?"
Of course.
Once this news came out, the stock prices of the five major mobile processor manufacturers—Lianhuake, Changtong, Seven Stars, Apple, and others—plummeted in response.
That price was close to the OEM licensing price of the operating system from the big software company, so major computer manufacturers could naturally accept it.
"Behind-the-scenes controller" sounds very powerful, and we can indeed indirectly influence many decisions, thereby affecting the direction of the world.
"Mr. Fahade, you have not been a high-level member for very long, and there are some things you may not have come into contact with yet."
If we use underhanded tactics, Long Country is not our territory; our direct influence is limited after all. Moreover, with Sakura Country's situation serving as a deterrent, even if we wanted to remote-control certain countries to act in secret, some would not take orders.
At a grand press conference, major companies announced the achievement of strategic cooperation, stating they would fully develop new mobile phones supporting the Tianwang Communication System and Tianyun Operating System in the future, and decided to use processors developed by Tianqi Core Technology in large quantities in future new mobile phones.
Fahade suddenly gasped, exclaiming: "Are there really aliens?"
Therefore, in the process of Tianqi Group's rise, we were truly unable to stop it.
Currently, the only high-frequency radio frequency chip capable of supporting satellite communication is a specialized processor designed by Tianqi Core Technology Company.
The Yongji Society is a massive international organization established hundreds of years ago, initially gathered together due to the spirits of freedom, equality, and friendliness.
"In the past two years, we were still too careless and did not face the threat of Su Xin in time. Otherwise, if we had spared no cost from the very beginning, perhaps we could have wiped it out."
The leading elder said in a calm tone.
The white-haired elder looked around the room and then said in a deep voice: "Aliens."
"Unfortunately, it is too late to say these things now. What we must do now is to exhaust all financial power, influence, and resources to defeat the behemoth that is Tianqi Group by any means necessary."
However, in these hundreds of years of development, the Yongji Society has long changed its nature, becoming an interest aggregate composed of capitalists and dignitaries.
The licensing fee for each OEM version of the Tianyun Operating System is 300 Long Coins; whether it is for mobile devices, computers, car-mounted computers, or other terminals, it is a unified licensing price.
Yingjiang Country.
Major mobile phone manufacturers, Tianqi Communication Company, and Tianqi Core Technology Company gathered together to discuss the upcoming cooperation.
This included major mobile phone manufacturers in Long Country, who were also affected to some extent, but since most of their phones are mid-to-high-end and do not have direct competition with Tianshu 1, and they can also equip the Tianyun Operating System and Tianwang Communication System, they did not suffer too great an impact.
However, the cooperation regarding the Tianwang Communication System was a bit troublesome.
And now.
Once his words were spoken.
That is to say.
We high-level members, through foundations and asset management companies, indirectly control vast wealth sufficient to influence the world, and also indirectly control the situation of the entire world.
An elder with a hooked nose on the right side clasped his hands gently under his chin and said with a gloomy face.
Now, Tianqi Group has released so many big moves in succession, making these high-level members of the Yongji Society understand completely—
If we compete on strength, the technical capabilities of all the companies under our names cannot compare to Tianqi Group, so we cannot compete in any way, and various commercial competition methods cannot suppress the other party.
Apple is particularly notable among them.
If we switch to using the Tianyun Operating System, we can save that portion of research and development costs, which cannot be considered a loss.
"With the current scale of Tianqi Group and the several core products they hold, whether we use open or secret methods, as long as they are commercial or economic means, it is impossible to defeat them."
That is to say, any mobile phone can be equipped with these two revolutionary products.
Of course.
"Even if all these conventional methods cannot do anything to Tianqi Group, we have a trump card that ordinary people cannot imagine."
Our several major businesses and core technologies are all under direct impact from Tianqi Group; the impact is minimal, and various small capitals and shareholders have expressed a bearish outlook, ending in a frantic sell-off.
Therefore, we can only watch helplessly as Tianqi Group grows step by step.
Inside a slightly dim conference room.
The few people present looked at each other, but in their eyes, there was no despair or loss as I had imagined, but rather a strange gleam.
Therefore, after having thought of some ways to suppress Tianqi Group and failing to stir up the slightest ripple, we abandoned that plan.
"This time, I will tell you one thing: the Yongji Society has been established for so many years, and its foundation is even deeper and stronger than you imagine."
More than a dozen old men were arranged in two rows, and in the main seat sat a handsome old man wearing a tuxedo with thick white hair and quite a distinguished air.
"Have you forgotten the scene where we were suppressed by mysterious missiles the moment we made a move?"
"We also harvested some very advanced technology from it, but the further we went, the more difficult the progress became; there have been no results in the last twenty-plus years."
We, these high-level members of the Yongji Society, will also lose our existing influence and assets, henceforth being reduced to ordinary wealthy people, and it is even possible we will go bankrupt.
"That's right, we can no longer harbor wishful thinking; only by destroying Su Xin and destroying Tianqi Group do we have hope of recasting our glory."
One week later.
We can only influence things indirectly from behind the scenes.
"Everyone, this is the second time we have gathered together so solemnly specifically for Tianqi Group; presumably, everyone knows the current situation, so why not share your respective views?"
They are not invincible after all.
"During this period, we established two secret bases, used respectively for researching the alien's corpse and the spaceship."
"Once a major war breaks out, it is obvious which side those countries will help; we are afraid we will fall into a state of isolation and helplessness, and the possibility of failure is very high."
Until now.
An old man sitting furthest from the main seat looked at the person who spoke and asked in return:
Consequently.
The rise of Tianqi Group in every field has too much momentum, and it is destined to affect the survival space of other vested interest groups.
Although we call ourselves the masters of the world, we also know in our hearts that our influence must still be exerted indirectly through those countries and large enterprises; now that those countries and large enterprises can do nothing about Su Xin, we are even more powerless.
Another person also said:
In those world-renowned large companies, those major countries that lead the world's direction, and some major events, our figures can be seen behind the scenes.
It triggers circuit breakers several times every day.
Mobile phone manufacturers like Xiaomi, OPO, VOV, and Li-Zu, as well as computer manufacturers like Red Flag, Shenchuan, and Changxiang, and even car companies like Goyadi, Dream Automobile, and Future Automobile, along with other terminal equipment manufacturers, all contacted Tianqi Software Company at the first opportunity, wanting to discuss the licensing of the Sky Cloud Operating System.
Tianqi Group is destined to be our mortal enemy.
Everyone is very optimistic about the prospects of the Tianyun Operating System, so naturally, they are unwilling to fall behind at the beginning; if they were to be abandoned by users because they did not have the Tianyun Operating System, the loss would be huge.
"Now that the general trend of Long Country has been established, even if we mobilize all our power, we might not be able to do anything to them."
But precisely because we are behind the scenes, our influence is limited; it is impossible for us to make all countries act according to our orders at will, and it is even more impossible for us to do whatever we want under the eyes of the whole world.
The scale of Tianqi Group is constantly expanding, and the fields it is involved in are becoming more and more numerous; it has already snatched away more than half of the industries in the hands of us high-level members, causing everyone to suffer heavy losses.
"Defeat? How to defeat them?"
Fahade's expression shifted, and he asked impatiently: "What trump card?"
"That's right, we discovered the alien in 1927, which is more than ninety-eight years ago, but it had long since died; at the same time, we also discovered the spaceship the alien left behind."
Ever since the semiconductor industry of Long Country rose, various major mobile phone manufacturers have gradually begun to cooperate with those processor manufacturers, but domestic processors still have limited production capacity, and coupled with the fact that those few major processor manufacturers took the initiative to lower prices to compete, everyone's main cooperation still fell into the hands of those internationally renowned manufacturers.
The white-haired old man nodded:
And for various major mobile phone manufacturers, although they use the Android operating system which does not require licensing fees, they also need to optimize and improve the native Android operating system, and the research and development costs spent each year are not small.
In these hundred-plus years, as the world situation has gradually become clear, we have indeed become the behind-the-scenes controllers of the entire world.
"Plus, Tianqi Group occupies the moral high ground, and no one in public opinion will support us; the Destiny Potion alone is enough to make the whole world afraid to take action against Tianqi Group."
In order for all subsequent mobile phones to perfectly use the Tianwang Communication System, we must adopt the dedicated processors of Tianqi Core Technology in all future models.
