Chapter 2022 Three major resources battle against Microsoft

Jobs’s words were not so much a challenge as they were venting a kind of domineering attitude, a kind of “Apple” domineering attitude. Although this kind of domineering attitude caused dissatisfaction among many mobile phone companies, it was undoubtedly extremely in line with the consumers chosen by “Apple”.

a state of mind.

Apple's products are always expensive, and its target consumer group is white-collar people with successful careers. These people have achieved certain achievements in their careers, so they all wish that the things they use are unique in the world, even if they are not.

To be unique, it must at least be high-quality products that can be separated from those used by ordinary people. Jobs's declaration undoubtedly gave consumers the feeling that "Apple" products are the best.

"Boss, it's all my fault this time, I accept the punishment!" Wu Zhaopu was dejected.

"Mr. Wu, why are you so downcast? Android was taken away by Steve Jobs, so we will definitely lose!" Lin Feng saw Wu Zhaopu's frustrated look, patted Wu Zhaopu on the shoulder and laughed, "Although Steve Jobs

Awesome, but not enough to make me surrender!"

Wu Zhaopu was stunned.

"Boss, do you have any other clever ideas?" Wu Zhaopu's mind immediately became active. He is not an ordinary boss, and maybe he really has another clever plan.

"Haha, Mr. Wu, this is the contract I signed." Lin Feng handed the contract to Wu Zhaopu.

Wu Zhaopu couldn't wait to read it, and immediately patted her thigh and praised it - "I want it!"

"Boss, this is a great move. It even made Steve Jobs feel depressed. Haha, no wonder Steve Jobs held such a grand celebration banquet. He dared to feel defeated by you." Wu Zhaopu laughed loudly, sweeping away the decadence just now.

Isn't it? Since ancient times, this copyright buyout has naturally meant all copyrights. How could someone like Lin Feng actually dig out a big mouthful of fat from Steve Jobs's mouth? This is so satisfying!

"Hehe, not only that, I also hired all the employees of 'Android'. Although the founder is missing, I have packaged all its partners, so that's the same." Lin Feng was also quite proud.

This last flash of inspiration brought me a lot of benefits.

Isn't "Android" developed and designed by these 8 people? In the future, I will give it dozens of people, let these 8 people take care of it, and then change "Android" into a new look, wouldn't it be "Niuzhuo", "Ma"

"Zhuo"! Of course, although this involves a little copyright issue, Lin Feng believes that this is not a big problem. After all, "Apple" bought "Android" and froze it, and it was all developed based on Linux.

Yes, as long as it is made plausible, it won't be a big problem.

"Okay, Mr. Wu, you will arrange these 8 people to our company's "Software Development Department" and let them serve as the main designers responsible for developing our operating system." Lin Feng ordered.

Wu Zhaopu nodded.

"By the way, let's have a meeting later and I'll give them a word." Lin Feng suddenly remembered that he hadn't met the employees of the "Software Development Department" yet, so he took this opportunity to go and have a look today.

Wu Zhaopu is naturally eager for this. Since the establishment of the "Software Development Department", there has been no results. And according to the "Second World" salary reward system, if there are no results, you will only have a basic salary. Looking at the monthly bonus ratio of employees in other departments

The salary is still high. Can the "software development department" not be anxious or jealous? Therefore, appropriate spiritual encouragement is also necessary. And the best spiritual encouragement master in the company is naturally none other than Lin Feng

.Originally, Wu Zhaopu was thinking about when to ask Lin Feng to give encouragement to the "Software Development Department". Now that Lin Feng has taken the initiative, it would be perfect.

"In that case, let me lead them now." Lin Feng did not hesitate and directly brought eight former "Android" employees and Wu Zhaopu into the "Software Development Department".

When they first entered the "Software Development Department", the eight former "Android" employees behind Lin Feng were dumbfounded. In the past, they were in the entrepreneurial stage of "Android" and the environment was relatively harsh. Together with Robin, there were nine people in total, crowded together.

If they were designing a room with a radius of only more than 20 square meters, the environment would be extremely harsh. At this moment, what they saw was a huge space with a radius of more than 1,000 square meters, and each designer was separated by a separate small office.

Open, but it does not affect each other's direct calls, and this is not the point. The point is that there are various leisure and entertainment facilities everywhere, billiard tables, table tennis tables, indoor golf, these numerous entertainment facilities almost make people think they are

I went to a leisure and entertainment hotel instead of working in an office.

Lin Feng glanced at the eight shocked "Android" employees behind him and felt slightly proud. In the past, when Lin Feng went to the headquarters of "Microsoft", "Yahoo", etc., he would always envy other people's headquarters, but now his own headquarters is also

It's enviable.

Although the headquarters of "Microsoft" cover a large area, with green everywhere and the sky visible when looking up, Lin Feng asked himself that his headquarters is not bad. Although it does not cover a vast area like a manor, it stands tall and tall.

In the center of Shanghai, employees can easily look out into the distance from the windows, which is so comfortable. Especially when the windows are opened, the sea breeze blows slowly, and the salty smell of the waves is smelled. Lin Feng believes that this is no worse than the office environment in the manor.

"Okay, everyone, please come here!" Lin Feng clapped his hands and summoned all the employees of the "Software Development Department".

At present, the "Software Development Department" has a total of 90 employees, who have been responsible for developing its own operating system exclusive to the "Second World". However, after more than a year of development, the only achievement is that the "Dream" was named "Mother"

However, for now, if the operating system is just used as a handheld console to copy games and watch movies, it is not bad, but if you want to fully utilize the cross-century performance of the "Dream", it will not work. And because

It is an open operating system, so many hackers want to develop it into a miniature handheld computer.

But the result is that once too many software are installed (no more than 10), bugs will appear in the system and some inexplicable problems will occur. Not only will the hardware be unable to drive, but it may even directly cause the hardware to semi-permanently crash. Special repair tools are required.

It can only be repaired. Because of this, the "Brother's Nest" system has been criticized by hackers from the outside. Naturally, these employees are disgraced. Therefore, all of them have bad luck on their faces.

"Everyone, don't be discouraged! After all, the 'Dream' was originally positioned as a handheld game console. Although the 'Brother's Nest' system has many shortcomings, as a simple game handheld game console, its performance is still very excellent." Lin

Feng naturally understands why these designers are frustrated and should encourage them.

After hearing what Lin Feng said, everyone's expressions only improved a little. Indeed, if "Dream" is used as a handheld device alone, the performance of "Brother's Nest" is still very satisfactory. But the performance of "Dream" is so powerful, if only

As a handheld game console, that's a waste of performance.

"Don't be anxious. You have to develop the system slowly. This is something that cannot be rushed." Although Lin Feng was anxious in his heart, in three months, he would have a system war with "Microsoft", and it still couldn't be put into the system.

It is impossible for people to be satisfied and Lin Feng not to be impatient. But to rebuke these designers now will only increase their burden.

"So, this time I invited eight design elites to join our team. They jointly developed the 'Android' system, and this 'Android' system was sold for a total of 40 million US dollars. I believe in their joining

It will definitely bring us new ideas and rich experience." Lin Feng said, introducing the eight people one by one to all employees of the "Software Development Department".

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard Lin Feng's words. "Android" is the most popular word recently. Under the double publicity of "Apple" celebration banquet and press conference, "Android" became a household name immediately. People in the IT industry were all here

Guess what is the charm of this "Android", it can sell for a full 40 million US dollars, and provoke Lin Feng, Steve Jobs and Larry Page to compete for it.

Now eight (almost all) developers of "Android" have joined the company and joined the "Software Development Department". For these designers who are stuck in a bottleneck, it is like rain after a long drought!

Immediately, some people couldn't help but began to inquire about the design concept and related design purposes of "Android". The atmosphere suddenly became warm. Lin Feng stood aside with a smile, acquiescing to everyone's conversation. This was a first for new and old employees.

Instinct communication, which helps them communicate and recognize each other, is of great benefit to the eight employees from "Android" integrating into this group. Otherwise, if there is a confrontation between the new and old employees, it will

Too bad.

Half an hour later, Lin Feng had no choice but to interrupt everyone as they chatted and stopped playing.

"Everyone, I want to announce something here. I think you all should know that 'Microsoft' will launch their new operating system - 'vista' in July, everyone knows it!" Lin Feng looked at everyone.

.

Everyone nodded. This is a major event in the software industry. How could someone in the industry not know about it? Immediately, some people started discussing the various features of "vista".

"Our company will also launch an operating system in three months, not for handheld computers or mobile phones, but for personal computers. I want to challenge Microsoft!" Lin Feng said word for word.

As a result, after Lin Feng finished speaking, the originally noisy scene suddenly became silent. They have been developing it for so long, and they always thought they were developing an operating system for "handheld consoles" or "mobile phones". They never thought that they would develop an operating system for personal computers.

(In order to keep it secret and not let "Microsoft" know in advance, this matter has always been top secret in the "Second World"). This is challenging the authority of "Microsoft"!

"What? Does Microsoft scare you so much that you don't dare to challenge it?" Lin Feng looked at everyone's eyes and knew that everyone was afraid of Microsoft's dominance in the system industry. Ever since Microsoft launched Windows

After the "System", it was almost invincible. Even the once-famous "Apple" declined because of "Microsoft". If not for the return of Steve Jobs, I am afraid that "Apple" would have been acquired by "Microsoft".

Tell me, how could Lin Feng want to challenge such a terrifying enemy? Isn't our boss out of his mind? - All the employees looked at Lin Feng in surprise. If it weren't for Lin Feng's great prestige in the company,

, I’m afraid some people have already publicly questioned Lin Feng’s decision.

"Why, are you all scared and don't dare to say anything?" Lin Feng glanced around and said coldly. If his employees are in this state, it will definitely be impossible to challenge "Microsoft". Therefore, he must first

Inspire confidence in everyone.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. They all had expressions of disbelief. They absolutely did not believe that the company could challenge "Microsoft", but they did not have the courage to accuse Lin Feng. The man in front of them was their boss, who was almost omnipotent.

Bosses who can’t. They don’t believe they can beat Microsoft on the operating system, but they don’t believe they can beat their own boss.

"Boss, it's not because everyone is afraid of Microsoft, but because Microsoft is too powerful. Even when we decided to develop Android, it was because we were afraid of Microsoft's dominance in the window system industry.

In the future, we avoided the important and developed the operating system for handheld devices, and that’s how we got ‘Android’.” said Mai Duo, one of the eight employees of the original “Android”.

"Oh, then you mean to give up and let 'Microsoft' dominate the operating system forever. All hardware manufacturers and software manufacturers will always surrender to the power of 'Microsoft'?" Lin Feng said coldly.

"No, boss, that's not what I mean. What I mean is that if any company on this planet tried to fight against Microsoft on the operating system, it would definitely fail miserably. But only we, and only you, boss, can possibly fight against Microsoft.

" Mai Duo said word for word.

"Oh?" Lin Feng's expression changed. Isn't this person trying to flatter himself? If this is really the case, then he should be kicked out of the "Software Development Department". His own "Software Development Department" wants it.

They are design talents, not sycophants. It doesn't matter if there are more sycophants in the administrative department, but there must be no such people in the technical department.

Lin Feng's eyes narrowed slightly. As long as Mai Duo didn't have enough reasons to convince him, Lin Feng would definitely kick him out without saying a word.

"Boss, the reason why our company can fight against Microsoft is because we have three major resources." Mai Duo said confidently.

"First, we are hardware developers ourselves, so the operating system we develop has sufficient hardware support. Unlike 'Linux', after it is launched, it has to adapt to the hardware instead of the hardware adapting to the software. Especially our company has a line of personal computers.

Dragon's hardware development capabilities occupy a complete monopoly in the graphics card market. This is the largest hardware resource we have, and this is something no company has ever owned." Mai Duo sighed.

The reason why Linux failed in the first place (of course it was not a failure, but not many people used it) was because after installation, any hardware changes were very troublesome, and not all hardware has its own driver. You tell me, is this troublesome or not?

The compatibility is not enough. But if the "second world" develops its own operating system and its own hardware, do you think it can be incompatible? It can completely achieve the same plug-and-play as "Microsoft's" "Window System"

.

"The second resource is that we own a large number of game software and some entertainment software copyrights. In particular, the 'Tencent' owned by you, boss, occupies an absolute dominance in the field of instant messaging tools in China, and our company's online games are even more

It is unique in the world. Almost everywhere there are computers, our company's game software is installed. This is a huge software resource that can provide absolutely beneficial support to the operating system." Mai Duo stretched out his second finger.

"However, the software resources our company has are limited after all, and most of them belong to the entertainment category. However, more office software is not supported by the operating system we developed. We cannot let consumers buy two computers at the same time, one for office and one for office.

An entertainment!" A designer objected. He thought that this newly arrived "Android" designer was flattering his father.

"Yes, this is very correct. If we develop the system, it will lack support for almost all office software, and many entertainment software will not support it. But this is the third point I am talking about. Our company has a unique global
To be continued...
