In order to further dispel the doubts of domestic manufacturers and further promote the HarmonyOS system, Huawei will directly open its HarmonyOS system and hand over the leading role in the development of HarmonyOS system. But it seems that the effect is not ideal, and Tencent is even preparing to enter the next generation operating system.
Then, in the case that HarmonyOS's system is completely open source, why should Tencent start a new stove and develop its own operating system? In the days of being Ali, can Tencent's self-research succeed?
According to the Securities Daily, on April 18, Coolpad Group and Tencent Cloud signed a strategic cooperation agreement in Shenzhen. One is an Internet company, and the other is a smartphone manufacturer. What do you want to do now? According to this cooperation agreement.
Coolpad and Tencent Cloud are preparing to set up a joint laboratory to jointly promote the research and development of underlying technologies. Of course, the most important thing is to explore the next generation operating system to help China's digital economy flourish. Both parties will enter the next generation operating system based on Tencent Cloud's stable and secure infrastructure and cool and forward-looking industry insight.
Both sides seem to be full of confidence in this cooperation. Cai Yi, vice president of Tencent Cloud, said in April 18 that discussing the landing of the next generation operating system is something that Tencent attaches great importance to. I believe that Tencent can fight side by side with Coolpad in the future and jointly carry out a series of actions such as planning, design, landing and iteration.
Does China lack an operating system? No shortage, there is a powerful Huawei HarmonyOS system, which can connect everything; Worried that the HarmonyOS system will rely heavily on Huawei does not exist. Huawei has donated all HarmonyOS systems to the National Open Atomic Open Source Foundation, and Huawei is no longer the leader of HarmonyOS systems.
So, why should Tencent give up such a powerful operating system, instead of taking the trouble to start a new stove and develop the next generation?
On March 23rd this year, Tencent announced its 20021annual financial report. Last year, Tencent achieved the lowest growth rate of total net profit of 5601.1.800 million yuan. The reason why this happens is probably because Tencent's most important revenue source, advertising and games, has slowed down.
According to Tencent's financial report last year, Tencent's advertising revenue was 88.666 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 16%. Do you feel good? But compared with 2020, the growth rate is only 8%. Tencent's more important game business revenue growth is slower. In the fourth quarter of last year, tencent games's business income only increased by 65,438+0%.
In the case that Tencent's two most important businesses are currently at a low point of development, it is actually understandable for Tencent to enter the operating system market where there is still a big gap in order to increase its economic benefits.
In addition, Tencent has been repeatedly complained by parents in recent years and has been labeled as a plaything. On April 2 1 day, the Netease game Time Traveler accused Tencent the glory of the king of plagiarism. Although Tencent clarified this matter, in short, it will have a further impact on Tencent's market influence.
Therefore, the reason why Tencent wants to develop the next generation operating system may be that it wants to take off its own label and save its market reputation by entering the high-end technology field.
Tencent's intention is actually to establish a major premise, that is, Tencent can successfully develop the next generation operating system. So, is it really possible for Tencent to succeed?
Judging from the actual situation, Tencent may not be unsuccessful. First, in terms of operating system, Tencent is not inexperienced. On June 9, 2020, Tencent Cloud announced that Tencent OS, a self-developed server operating system, was officially open source. On September 23rd last year, Tencent and Guangzhou Metro released a new generation of digital operating system-Sui Teng OS 2.0, which will be first used in Guangzhou Metro 18 and Line 22.
From this, we can easily see that Tencent's own experience in operating systems is sufficient. Therefore, it may not be impossible for Tencent to develop the next generation operating system.
In addition, Coolpad also has a lot of research strength in the operating system kernel. It is said that Coolpad won the 33rd place in the contribution list of the core branch code of the global Linux kernel community. Under the powerful operating system kernel strength of Coolpad itself, pants matching may not help Tencent to successfully develop the next generation operating system, and Tencent may not have no possibility of success.
Now the competition of domestic operating systems is becoming more and more fierce. Tencent still has to develop its own next-generation operating system, even with Huawei HarmonyOS system, which is a great competition with Huawei HarmonyOS system. Among them, it may also pin Tencent's expectations for its future development and its ambition of continuous progress and development.
We expect Tencent and Coolpad to successfully enter the next generation operating system, and we also expect Tencent to achieve development and progress through this next generation operating system, go to a different place and win more markets. At the same time, I also hope that more domestic enterprises will join the self-research of Chinese operating systems, and I hope that the strength and team of domestic operating systems will become stronger and stronger.
