Looking back on the development of Xia Guo Computer over the past 20 or 30 years, and in the past 10 years of commercial computer development, is there any domestic operating system that can have an installed base of 100,000 units?
The answer is no!
Absolutely not.
Even the operating systems that were developed by technology companies with state spending in the past few years have not reached this order of magnitude, not even a fraction, after they were mandatory and popularized with the encouragement of the state.
But Changtian Technology’s Yinghuo OS did it.
Without any mandatory promotion or policy subsidies, Yinghuo OS, which was independently developed by Changtian Technology, actually reached an installed base of 100,000 units in a short period of time.
How could this kind of news not be taken seriously?
The relevant departments of Xia State immediately sent a letter of inquiry to Changtian Technology, hoping that Changtian Technology could provide a complete description of the situation of Yinghuo OS, as well as certain technical indicators that can be made public.
The purpose of this is actually to understand and judge whether Yinghuo OS can be promoted nationwide on a large scale, especially in sensitive fields such as military, scientific research, and medical health.
Computer operating systems are definitely related to the country's strategic security.
A department of Xia State conducted a survey at the end of last year and found that 99% of Xia State-owned enterprises and institutions use Windows systems, and 85% of them use pirated Windows systems.
This is definitely a time bomb.
The 21st century has arrived.
The 21st century must be the century of computers and the Internet. This is recognized by everyone.
In the Internet age, if the computer portals of enterprises and institutions are left open, causing certain sensitive data to be exposed, it will be fatal to the information security of the entire country.
To this end, relevant national departments also consulted experts from the Institute of Computer Science, Xia Guoan Academy of Sciences.
Since Xia Guo Science and Changtian Technology have a cooperative relationship, and the Computer Research Institute and Changtian Technology have already had relatively close cooperation on carbon crystal hard drives and carbon crystal memories.
Therefore, when responding to the opinions of relevant national departments, experts from the Computer Research Institute evaluated Yinghuo OS very seriously.
And came up with many opinions that are worthy of reference by relevant departments:
First, Yinghuo OS is independently developed and designed by Changtian Technology. It does not imitate Windows XP or use Linux. Changtian Technology owns the complete independent intellectual property rights of Yinghuo OS. Using this system will never be inconsistent with
Companies in the West are at odds with each other.
The second point is that Yinghuo OS is very practical and can be compatible with most applications on the market, so if it is promoted as an officially recognized domestic operating system, there will be no problem at all.
The third point is that the Yinghuo OS system is a closed operating system, and its security is absolutely guaranteed.
Point 4. The Yinghuo OS system is developed based on the Jiuzhang compiler independently developed by Changtian Technology.
Xia Institute of Computer Science, Academy of Sciences, communicated with Changtian Technology in detail about issues related to the Jiuzhang compiler.
The Xia Academy of Sciences can confirm that the Jiuzhang compiler still has great potential in the computer application market.
The Xia Academy of Sciences believes that the country should encourage more domestic software companies to use the Jiuzhang compiler and use the Yinghuo OS system as a platform to create a domestic ecosystem suitable for our country.
The final conclusion is that Changtian Technology’s Yinghuo OS system can be promoted as a national strategic goal to break Microsoft’s monopoly.
Anyway, the Xia Academy of Sciences has made up its mind and plans to equip Yinghuo OS on office computers related to the Academy of Sciences.
As for some scientific research software, the Xia Academy of Sciences is also in contact with Changtian Technology to see if they can be jointly developed.
Only in this way can we break the monopoly of the West, especially the United States, on computers and the Internet, and find our own path.
After the relevant departments received such an answer from the Xia Academy of Sciences, they immediately sent a working group to Changtian Technology for investigation.
Wang Xianghe also paid attention to this matter and went with Yang Fei to meet the working group of the relevant departments.
In fact, at this time, Wang Xiang was still a little confused.
Although he, like Chen Xiao, was completely certain that Yinghuo OS would have more than one million installed units within a year, he never expected that in just a few days, the installed base would have exceeded 100,000.
The speed is too fast, so I am not very confident.
Chen Xiao is quite leisurely during this time. He drinks tea and plays games in the office every day before getting off work.
It seems that this data is not surprising at all, but feels that it is normal.
Moreover, when the research team from the relevant departments came to investigate, Chen Xiao did not go to accompany them and directly asked Wang Xiang to accompany them.
Chen Xiao has actually been busy during this period, but he is busy making some improvements to the Jiuzhang compiler to make it a commercial version with weaker performance and promote it to market applications.
Chen Xiao has been on the phone with Wu Jun. The first thing he wants to know is what users’ opinions are about Yinghuo OS.
In order to seize the market, and also for Changtian Technology's hardware to get rid of Microsoft's blockade as soon as possible, there has been very little test data for Yinghuo OS from its birth to the present.
The lack of test data means that many laboratories will definitely encounter some difficulties that have never been anticipated during use.
If you can do the initial stage of Yinghuo OS just running, you can find some problems in the system and solve them in time, which will help the growth of the system.
At present, users are very satisfied with the use of Yinghuo OS, and most of their suggestions are still related to applications.
After all, the technical staff of Changtian Technology do not have many heads and six arms, and they cannot operate around the clock and night, and they cannot optimize all applications on the market and upload them to the server.
Therefore, even though the current application market has included a large number of applications on the market, there are still many niche applications used by users that cannot be used on Firefly OS.
Other than that, in 2002, Xia’s internet speed was quite snail-paced.
Most users have broadband dial-up at home, and traffic is limited.
If you can use 50G of traffic in a month, you are a big user.
It is unrealistic for these users to go online and download applications running hundreds of megabytes or even several gigabytes in the application market.
Chen Xiao once did something in the dormitory, using the school's campus network to download "Slam Dunk", a total of about 8G of resources.
As a result, BitComet downloaded at a speed of 10kb/s to 30kb/s every day, and it took Chen Xiao a full semester to complete the download.
Don't ask where is Thunder?
Xunlei was not born in the United States until the end of 2002, and it would not appear on the Xia market until around 2003.
Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary users to download applications from the Firefox OS application market.
Chen Xiao had no choice but to ask Wu Jun to arrange for staff to come to Changtian Technology to get CDs of modified versions of commonly used applications (adapted to Firefly OS), and then distribute them to major after-sales points to install them for users.
When users need to install an application, Shenchuan’s staff will come to install it at a low cost, or when users go to an after-sales point, Shenchuan’s staff will install it for free.
Wu Jun discovered that the cooperation between Shenchuan and Changtian Technology was indeed a wise choice. Chen Xiao was able to consider such details very well.
In early August, the installed base of Yinghuo OS reached 150,000 units. At this time, many people could not sit still.
