It was a long story to talk about WPAI technology.
As early as 1992, the country started to study wireless LAN technology.
In 2003, the WAPI technology standard was fully developed.
Although it was mature, when the government was preparing to promote the WAPI standard in 2003, Intel and other multinational companies requested to delay the implementation because of insufficient preparation. In 2004, when the government was preparing to release the standard, they unexpectedly encountered a series of problems. These multinational IT manufacturers banded together and unanimously opposed WAPI.
Until now, WAPI did not have any application-level products.
Using his previous life as an example, until 2021, although WAPI became the global wireless communication standard, its application level was still equivalent to zero.
The only thing the public knew about was Wifi.
Other than Wifi, many people did not know that there was a WAPI in their own country.
When preparing the wireless communication technology, Chen Yu had already considered this point.
Of course, someone asked.
Why did he introduce WAPI? Was Wifi not good enough?
In fact, it was indeed not good enough.
Although WAPI did not have many problems in other aspects, there were many loopholes in security.
For example.
In his previous life, if a smartphone was connected to an unsecured Wifi site, the phone could be hijacked.
But if WAPI technology was used, this problem would not exist.
In terms of security, WAPI was inherently better than Wifi technology.
Or, to put it another way.
Even if Wifi technology was very secure, Chen Yu would not use it.
No matter how secure it was, it was someone else's technology. No matter how secure it was, it could be controlled by competitors.
The Lin Jing incident in the United States in his previous life was terrifying enough.
If your network, your data, and everything about you were monitored by them, how could you play?
Because of this.
Whether it was from the perspective of interests, national security, or from the perspective of one's own business.
Chen Yu had to introduce his own country's wireless communication standard, which was WAPI.
At the same time, Chen Yu also concluded why the promotion of WAPI in his previous life failed.
One was the strength of the multinational companies.
The other was that there was no strong application product to promote it.
It was because of these two problems.
Even if WAPI became the global wireless communication standard in his previous life, it was still difficult to use it in practice.
Chen Yu's solution was to use Super Pear to force it into the market.
"Senior Brother, what's the feedback from the global distributors?"
"Very good. These distributors have increased their purchase volume for our Super Pear 1S. From this, we can see their confidence in our Super Pear 1S."
"Yes, continue to work hard. At the end of the year, we will give a discount of 1% to the global distributors with outstanding performance. "
"Alright."
Although the Super Pear 1S had increased the number of specs and cost, the Super Pear itself was already very profitable.
Even if it was only a 1% discount, Huanyu Technologies would still make a profit.
However, what Chen Yu was more willing to see now was to give the distributors enough profit while he was earning.
As long as he could make these dealers earn money, then they would be firmly bound to him.
Even if there were some problems, these dealers would help Huanyu Technologies resolve them.
"However, Boss Chen, I'm still worried about our WAPI."
"What's wrong?"
"WAPI still hasn't become a global standard. If we force it out like this, I'm afraid we will be stopped."
"Senior Brother, you think too highly of these guys."
Chen Yu shook his head. "Even if we become a global standard, do you think they won't object?"
Chen Yu asked back. "Moreover, if we do things according to the circles they draw, it's still unknown whether our WAPI can become a global wireless standard. It's possible that it will be 10 years before our WAPI becomes a global standard. "
It was like this in his previous life.
When WAPI became a global standard and became a global standard like wifi, it was already useless.
The entire ecosystem was completely surrounded by wifi. Even if there was a WAPI, not many companies would be willing to cooperate.
Not to mention those few companies, even if it was you yourself, you would feel that WAPI was superfluous.
How could Chen Yu not know the nature of the Western countries?
It was impossible to be acknowledged by them.
Even if they really acknowledged it, it was because they felt that it was useless at this time.
If you wanted to fight with them, you had to jump out of their rules.
This was also why Chen Yu wanted to force it out.
Although this would be opposed by a series of manufacturers around the world, so what?
When WAPI was truly introduced to the world, it would naturally become a global standard.
It was just as Chen Yu expected.
After the Super Pear 1S was officially released, Intel, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Texas Instruments, Cisco … and other major IT manufacturers around the world publicly expressed their opposition. They felt that WAPI technology was not a global standard and that using this wireless communication technology would bring a great challenge to network security. At the same time, they also publicly stated that they would not use WAPI technology in all of their products.
However, Chen Yu ignored this opposition.
If it was in the past …
The opposition and resistance of these giants might really scare a lot of people.
But now, Huanyu Technologies had its own confidence.
First of all, they had their own chips and they also produced wireless communication chips, which were WAPI chips.
Second, Huanyu Technologies had its own operating system, whether it was on computers or mobile phones.
Third, Huanyu Technologies also launched a wireless communication WAPI standard equipment, the Pear router.
Under normal circumstances, the Pear router would not sell.
But when the Pear router was tied to the Super Pear 1S, you had to buy it even if you didn't want to.
If you didn't buy it, you wouldn't be able to enjoy wireless Internet access.
Of course.
Just the Pear router was not enough. He needed all of the router manufacturers around the world to enter the market and introduce routers that supported the WAPI standard.
In his previous life, not many manufacturers were willing to produce routers that supported the WAPI standard.
Because no one used it, supporting WAPI was a waste of money.
But now, it was different.
Because of the Super Pear 1S.
Even if there was only the Super Pear 1S user group, the number of routers would be incomparably large.
As for your question …
With the Pear router, why buy other brands of routers?
This question was very simple.
If you weren't a true fan of the Pear router, you wouldn't be able to hold on to it.
But at this time, if other manufacturers produced a 300, 200, or even 100 yuan router, would you still not buy it?
That's right.
On one hand, Chen Yu set the price of their accessories so high to make money.
On the other hand, it was to give the other manufacturers enough profits.
As long as Chen Yu gave them enough profits, then, even if Chen Yu didn't take the initiative, these manufacturers would naturally spontaneously introduce accessories that supported Huanyu Technologies.
This was also the reason why Chen Yu dared to forcefully introduce the WAPI standard.
So …
When Intel, Microsoft, Texas Instruments, Cisco … and other giants thought that their boycott would put a lot of pressure on Huanyu Technologies.
But unexpectedly …
A few days after their boycott, more than 100 wireless routers that supported the WAPI standard appeared in the market.
