“Wu Yanjun said, COS system is more concerned about the nature of the underlying technology and security, on top of the Linux kernel, our researchers were developing for nearly ten million lines of code, can now maintain, create, publish our own version independently.”
Actually, China companies and academic institutions are developing several Linux kernel based OSes these years: OPhone from China Mobile, UPhone from China Unicom (now called Tongzhou/Coship 960), YunOS from Alibaba(famous for clashing with Google), Tianci OS from SkyWorth for TVs (there are other OSes for TVs including NGB AOS, STVOS, etc.), to name a few.
They are all struggling in making phone vendors and end users' adoption. But it is a highly risky game with high return. China is a big market. Even you juse got 1% market share, you will have tens of millions of users.
