Gates also felt that his ears had heard it wrong. He repeatedly asked his assistant: "Are you sure that the operating system just released by Changtian Technology was independently developed by them? Didn't they add a shell to the Windows system or
Developed using Linux.”
The assistant said seriously: "I can be sure! The material in my hand was just sent by fax from Xia Guo. Changtian Technology's operating system is named Yinghuo os."
"Judging from the information passed by Xia Guo, Yinghuo OS is not only independently developed by Changtian Technology, but its application effect is much simpler than Windows XP. It also has an intelligent assistant function that Windows XP does not have."
After receiving the information, the assistant quickly printed it out and handed it to Gates. He did not check the specific content in detail.
Because the information from Xia Guo was in a hurry, the information only briefly summarized the key aspects of the entire press conference, without any more detailed content.
However, some key words and sentences in this intelligence have shocked Gates a little.
Changtian Technology developed Yinghuo OS using the self-developed Jiuzhang compiler.
The entire system took less than half a year from project establishment to successful development.
The system has less than 50 developers.
Yinghuo OS is a closed system, and no one, including users, has the right to modify the basic settings of the system.
Users do not have the right to download applications that need to be installed from web pages and other third-party methods.
The only way to download applications is through the Firefly OS's own application market. All applications will be reviewed by Changtian Technology technical personnel to ensure the security of the applications.
Yinghuo OS also has an intelligent assistant, Xiaoying, which can solve most of users' system problems in a timely manner.
Looking at these key pieces of information, Gates was a little dazed.
As the world's greatest and most profitable software company, Gates feels that all the world's software elites should be at Microsoft.
But some of the concepts and ideas in Changtian Technology's Yinghuo OS have never been heard of by Microsoft's senior engineers, and they have never even thought about it, let alone implemented it.
Especially the closed operating system gave Gates a sudden sense of enlightenment.
What is the biggest benefit of a closed operating system?
The biggest benefit is that it can ensure the security of the system and avoid virus infection.
Gates looked at the information and couldn't believe it. He didn't want to believe that a technology company from Xia Guo actually used this idea to develop an operating system.
Gates currently has only one thought in his mind -
Regardless of whether Changtian Technology's system has been successfully developed, their ideas are already very advanced!
But Gates does not believe that Changtian Technology can develop a computer operating system within half a year.
Gates thinks he knows the development and operation rules of operating systems best. Any company that says it took half a year to develop an operating system is either talking nonsense or cheating money.
Gates asked his assistant: "What do you say about the press conference? Will the operating system be commercially available?"
Gates still believes that Changtian Technology's so-called development of Xia Guo's domestic operating system is just a show to show it to Xia Guo's government.
But the assistant's words confused Gates. The assistant said: "At the press conference, it was determined that Shenchuan's computers will use Firefly OS, and Shenchuan is preparing to invite users to update from 8 a.m. Beijing time the next day."
Gates stood there for a few seconds. The news came too suddenly, and he was completely unprepared.
Gates had no intention of attending any global computer and Internet summit and left the venue immediately.
He needs to return to Microsoft's headquarters immediately to learn more about the specific situation of Changtian Technology's Yinghuo OS and formulate relevant countermeasures.
However, Gates is still relatively certain in his heart that even if Changtian Technology develops a so-called computer operating system, its performance, functions and market applicability will definitely not pose any threat to Microsoft's Windows XP.
Microsoft has been operating in Xia Guo for many years, and Gates is too familiar with the ethics of Xia Guo Technology Company and the behavior of Xia Guo's scientific research talents.
The scientific researchers in Xia Guo are absolutely uncreative. Those Xia Guo people who are creative have all come to the United States through studying abroad or working as immigrants to contribute to American software companies.
Those who remain in the Xia Kingdom now are all scum that have been screened out by the United States.
If there is something that American technology companies cannot come up with, then Xia Guo Technology Company will definitely not be able to come up with it.
Also receiving relevant information was Dell CEO Michael.
Mike's heart skipped a beat when he saw the brief introduction about Yinghuo OS coming from Xia Ge District Headquarters.
Sure enough, he was afraid of what would come. In the past few days, he had a premonition that Changtian Technology would definitely do something earth-shattering.
Now it's really here.
The fundamental reason why Changtian Technology is so eager to develop a domestic operating system is that it has been too brutally strangled by Western technology alliances in the international market.
The harsh living environment in the market forced Changtian Technology to seek self-reliance.
Michael now only prays that the Yinghuo OS system developed by Changtian Technology is not as good as Windows XP and will not be accepted by the market.
Otherwise, Dell's position would be quite embarrassing.
Mike also immediately returned to Dell's headquarters. He asked Dell's Xia headquarters to immediately provide him with all the videos of Changtian Technology's product launch.
Michael knows Chen Xiao's character very well. Either this man will not do it, but if he does it, he will do his best.
At this time, on Xia Guo's portal website and BBS, the news that Changtian Technology had developed a domestic computer operating system had been widely reported, and it spread quickly.
After learning the news, some netizens in Xia State stayed up all night.
In 2002, there were neither QQ groups nor Tieba.
But at this time, the prototype of Tieba - BBS (forum) was already used
On the largest BBS Paradise Consulting Station in the country, the topic about Yinghuo OS immediately attracted a large number of canyon netizens.
"It's unbelievable that Changtian Technology has actually developed a domestic operating system. Users who have Shenchuan computers at home can upgrade at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning!"
[Influence +2]
"I have also seen relevant reports. I heard that it is a closed system, and the operating experience can surpass WINXP."
[Influence +1]
But there is still a lot of noise on the forum.
This era is an era where official disclosures are rampant.
Similar to the information that elementary school students in Japan have to queue up to cross the street, and elementary school students go to school by themselves, elementary school students in the United States read books carefully while waiting for flights, and fans in South Korea and Japan clean up the garbage after watching football matches, etc.
, quite common in this era.
And these companies ZHI exist in large numbers in these BBSs in China.
As soon as they saw the news that Changtian Technology had developed a domestic operating system, some people raised questions.
"Are you bragging? Changtian Technology must have developed a domestic operating system to defraud the state of subsidies. If you don't believe it, let's wait and see."
"Microsoft in the United States developed the WINXP system. It took several years and countless staff wrote 40 million lines of code day and night. Now you tell me that Changtian Technology has a team of less than fifty people.
The system development was completed in less than half a year? Haha.”
Soon, the so-called Kochi began to post, popularizing the entire process of operating system development to BBS netizens, and based this on it, criticizing the domestic computer operating system developed by Changtian Technology as a fake system.
This person also left a final message saying: “Even if Changtian Technology’s Yinghuo OS is installed on Shenship’s PC tomorrow, I believe there will be professionals who can finally analyze that the Yinghuo OS operating system must be golden and jade, but there are flaws in it.
And if it’s either Windows XP or Linux, how could it be possible for a team of fifty people to write their own code and develop an operating system in half a year? What Microsoft can’t do, Changtian Technology will definitely not be able to do.”
If Westerners can't do it, Xia people will definitely not be able to do it either!
This idea widely exists in the thinking of most of the elites of Xia Kingdom.
Industry players and related media are waiting.
Waiting for Yinghuo os to be used in Shenchuan's computers, only then can they personally use the operating system and evaluate its performance and market influence.
Xia Guo, Shenzhen City, 8 o'clock in the morning.
Shenzhou headquarters has started after-sales work to replace Yinghuo OS.
To this end, all Shenchuan staff across the country, including sales staff, have been mobilized.
Wu Jun's strategy was to proactively call or send emails to every Shenship user to ask if there was a need to update the operating system.
"Is this Mr. Yang? This is Shenchuan After-sales Service. We have launched the new genuine domestic operating system Yinghuo OS. Let me first introduce to you the related functions of Yinghuo OS..."
"It's so annoying..."
"Dududu..."
"Hello Mr. Chen, we have launched the latest domestic operating system Yinghuo OS..."
"Not interested, won't upgrade or install."
Wu Jun was backstage at Shenchuan's headquarters, keeping an eye on the real-time statistics of system upgrades.
It is already ten o'clock in the morning, and no user is willing to install Firefly OS.
The entire headquarters conference room fell into silence.
The ideal is very full!
The reality is horrific.
Wu Jun wondered if the statisticians had made a mistake. It had been two hours and there hadn't been a single system upgrade.
Wu Jun paced back and forth impatiently, feeling very uneasy, and finally couldn't help but call Chen Xiao.
Of course, Chen Xiao is also paying attention to the installation status of Yinghuo OS. No one has installed it for two hours, which is actually quite normal.
In an era where the network is blocked and information transmission speed is slow, I am afraid that many users do not know what Yinghuo OS is.
Moreover, everyone is accustomed to using the WIN system. If users are suddenly asked to change the system, users will definitely be concerned.
Wu Jun proposed a way, "How about we offer benefits to users and provide a one-year extended warranty for those who are willing to replace the system?"
