Chapter 321(1/2)

Although ibm will abandon its computer business that has been operating for decades in the future and instead focus on technical solutions, this is no better choice. The service fee earned every year is a considerable amount.

The ibm staff who was sent out of the company by Zhang Zhonghua left but was stopped by a reporter. The boxes he had transported in before were too domineering and attracted attention. Naturally, someone notified the familiar ones to remember.

"Hello, I am a reporter from the Sing Tao Morning Post in Hong Kong. I would like to ask what are the big boxes you just transported in?"

The reporter who stopped the ibm employee took out his reporter's certificate and asked.

"What I just shipped in is our latest product computer, which is a large industrial machine. Because it is quite large, it uses several boxes."

ibm employees said that their company requires that they should never forget to advertise their own products, not to mention that this is a free newspaper advertisement.

"What type of computer is that, and how much does it cost?"

The reporter who blocked the road continued to ask, as a rememberer, he naturally knew what a computer was.

“That’s the latest system370/168 series, the most advanced computer, priced at $3 million.”

Lars Dison proudly introduced that we are the world's top company, no one.

Damn, one unit costs $3 million? Is the computer made of gold?

This CFC catering company is too rich, and the CFC boss Zhang Sheng is too arrogant. He can't burn too much money.

"Thanks."

The reporter said sourly.

What he didn't know was that Zhang Zhonghua bought a computer worth $3 million, but two, and Zhang Zhonghua had arranged for someone to take him north to Sijiucheng.

Zhang Zhonghua doesn’t know how this computer compares to the 109 machine? Even if you don’t go to the 109, it will be the crystallization of ibm’s technology, which can point out a lot of directions to mainland computer discoveries.

...

...

The next day, Zhang Zhonghua arrived at the company early, entered his computer room, and then locked the door.

Zhang Zhonghua sat in front of the monitor and was preparing to develop the first software - Wubi input method. When he was too tired of handwriting, he had to develop typing software.

Why not develop the pinyin input method?

Before the Pinyin input method has no function of associative input and memory, there is no way to compare with the Wubi input method.

The first Chinese input method in computers was the Cangjie input method created by Zhu Bangfu in 1976. It was originally only in traditional Chinese version, and its original name was "Xingyi Character Inspection Method". The Cangjie input method was used to solve the problem of computer processing Chinese characters, including Chinese character input, character output, internal code storage, Chinese character sorting, etc.

The Wubi font input method is a Chinese character input method invented by Wang Yongmin in August 1983. The Wubi font encodes Chinese characters based on strokes and font characteristics, and is a typical shape code input method. Wubi is one of the most commonly used Chinese character input methods in China and some Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore and Malaysia.

"The king of kings is on May Day, the genius has two or ten inches of rain, one or two has the character "Green"

Zhang Zhonghua wrote the root of the Wubi input method into the word of the notebook.

Afterwards, Zhang Zhonghua started writing programs on the ibm computer and started to type code in line with the cobol language. The sound of typing the keyboard quickly came from the room.

There are 130 basic roots in total, and it is very easy to write code, and it is not challenging at all. As for basic, it is too low and is far less widely used in cobol. In the future, most programming will also use cobol language, and you must master it as soon as possible.

Zhang Zhonghua was excitedly typing on the keyboard. It's been five years. Do you know how I got through these five years? After five years, I can finally use the computer openly. For a teenager who is addicted to the Internet, five years without using the computer is enough to be driven crazy.

In the following time, Zhang Zhonghua once again experienced the same kind of forgetting to eat and sleep in the first few months of the college entrance examination, and forgot to immerse himself in the joy of coding, and did not even hear the knocks outside the door.

It took half a day to work, and Zhang Zhonghua felt a little hungry and walked out of the room. Although he was working, not playing games, it was so good to use a computer and he didn't have a smartphone.

"Boss, you're out. I'll knock on your door at noon and you didn't respond."

The front desk of the left-behind group headquarters said to Zhang Zhonghua carefully.

Is computers so fascinated? The boss is really our role model. He really forgets to eat and sleep when working.

"It's a bit busy writing code. Does the company have any food?"

Zhang Zhonghua asked.

"There is also lunch for lunch, which can be heated in the microwave, or let the restaurant in Central send a set meal here."

Cheng Shihong said. It’s almost tea time now, and that thing is not enough, so the boss probably has to continue working.

"Then I'll get hot. The company is fine, right?"

Zhang Zhonghua asked.

"Our company purchased computers and actually went to newspapers. The Sing Tao Daily is too boring, and everything is reported."

Cheng Shihong handed over a newspaper, then said to Zhang Zhonghua with a smile.

"In a small land of Hong Kong Island, it's quite a bit of news that I spent $3 million to buy a computer."

Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.

"Yeah, it's true!"

Cheng Shihong asked curiously, and then Cheng Shihong went out to finish the meal for Zhang Zhonghua.

Zhang Zhonghua had lunch quickly and then returned to the office and started operating the computer.

Zhang Zhonghua worked tirelessly for several days and finally completed the development and packaging of Wubi input method.

Seeing that the packaged input method software was as high as 500kb, Zhang Zhonghua felt so tired that he couldn't fit a tape.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zhonghua will definitely develop compression software next. The conditions for developing computer storage in the 1960s were too backward.

"When friends come, they have good wine, and when enemies come, they have hunting rifles."

Zhang Zhonghua excitedly typed Traditional Chinese on the computer. What a commemorative thing. From then on, he was the number one person in computer Chinese.

After the computer enters the mainland on a large scale, it can be changed to simplified Chinese after slightly modifying the traditional Wubi input method.

Zhang Zhonghua typed the introduction of CFC restaurant on the screen, connected to the ibm printer, and easily printed out the company's introduction.

Zhang Zhonghua walked out of the office and handed the company introduction to the front desk girl Cheng Shihong.

"Look at how?"

Zhang Zhonghua was proud in his heart. This is the world's first Chinese printed on a computer. If it was on auction in the future, it might be sold for a lot of money.

"Boss, isn't this the introduction to our restaurant? What's wrong?"

Cheng Shihong said in wonder.

Zhang Zhonghua's proud face collapsed instantly. Why didn't he find that Cheng Shihong's observation ability was so poor before? Will the chairman of my dignified Yuhuang Group give you an ordinary piece of paper?

"Don't you feel that this is any difference?"

Zhang Zhonghua pointed to the content on the paper and said to Cheng Shihong.

"Different? Let's take a look! No, the text is wrong, it doesn't look like it was typed from a typewriter. Boss, this is not printed from a computer, right?"

Cheng Shihong picked up the company profile and studied it carefully. He immediately found the problem, so he immediately asked in surprise.

"Yes, the content on this paper was printed out by my computer. Recently, I wrote a software using a computer, and now the computer can also use input Chinese."

Zhang Zhonghua said to Cheng Shihong proudly.

"Boss, you are so awesome. What's the name of the software you invented?"

Cheng Shihong said excitedly.

"This name has not been named yet. It can be called Wubi input method. What prefix should be added before it."

Zhang Zhonghua said to himself.

"Then the cfc input method is suitable for our cfc restaurant."

Cheng Shihong said with a smile.

"Forget it, there is no need. This will bring painful memories to countless people in the future and may affect our business. I think it's better to just use the panda input method. Anyway, it's not used by foreigners."

Zhang Zhonghua thought about it and finally made a decision.

"That's fine, most of our logos are pandas."

After completing the panda input method, Zhang Zhonghua drove home and had to celebrate it well. This was invented by the studio elder brother.

"Ahua, your software is completed?"

When Lou Xiaoe saw Zhang Zhonghua getting off the car with joy, she walked away and greeted him. Lou Xiaoe knew what she was busy with recently.

"It's done. This is the root table. It's still very troublesome to memorize these before typing. I originally wanted to do the pinyin input method, but the computer memory is too small."

Zhang Zhonghua handed the Wubi root to Lou Xiao'e.

"What should I do with your little computer?"

Lou Xiaoe remembered the computer Zhang Zhonghua brought back from the event smartly, but couldn't do anything, so she couldn't help laughing out loud.

Lou Xiao'e's words made Zhang Zhonghua very depressed. The computer can be plugged in several rows of components to increase memory, but if you want to upgrade to something that can be used, you can buy half a computer.

"A batch of accessories will be available in two or three days, and then you can install it."

After chatting with Lou Xiao'e for a while, the two of them walked into the villa together. At this time, the chef had prepared a table of dishes, and the house soon became lively.

Father Lou looked at a large table of dishes and asked:

"Ahua, why are you back so early today? Are you not studying computers in the company?"

"The software I want to make has been written, so I'll come back early today to rest."
