When they saw the pile of demands, the five experts felt uneasy.
When they heard the deadline required, the five experts were in a state of collapse.
There are many needs, the technical requirements are very difficult, and it is the first time for them to do many functions.
Time is tight and the task is heavy, so no mistakes can be made.
After all, this project is not a commercial project, but a zz task.
Seeing the expressions of embarrassment on the faces of several experts, Qin Yi clapped his hands and said, "Don't be afraid of difficulties. This project is a groundbreaking scientific research project, and it is normal to have difficulties."
"What we are doing is not only a breakthrough in technology, but also a huge scientific research achievement in a political sense. What you have developed is of epoch-making significance, especially the private chat system, which is the first instant messaging chat system on the Internet.
”
"Once the research and development is completed, it will not only leave a mark in the history of the Internet, but also open a new page for the Internet. What an achievement this is."
"It can not only boost the morale of the Chinese nation and enhance national pride, but also prove to the world that China is not lagging behind in this kind of high-tech cutting-edge technology, and is even leading the world."
"From a strategic perspective, the new system developed can help us seize the commanding heights of the Internet and cause a dimensionality reduction blow to the entire Internet ecosystem."
"Use the advantage of the first-mover platform to fight high, understand the underlying logic, improve the top-level design, strengthen user awareness, focus on user experience, take small steps and fast iterations in the development model, seize the advantageous position, and create a new
Business model."
"We must not only lead the world, but also achieve what others don't have, what we have, what others have, what we have, and what others have, we can change."
"In short, we must seize the strategic time window, take advantage of the rapid development of the Internet, and promote the entire system to the world."
"Everyone imagine what it will be like when the whole world is using the chat system we developed."
Of great historical significance and bright development prospects.
The five experts immediately became excited. It turns out that this project has such great significance.
No wonder we have to recruit elite soldiers from various departments and conduct strict confidentiality training.
We are actually working on such an important scientific research project.
Everyone looked at each other and made up their minds instantly. No matter how difficult it is, they must get this thing out.
Seeing that several experts were highly motivated, Qin Yi immediately added fuel to the fire.
"Of course the organization won't allow you to make selfless contributions. How can we let the horses run but not let them eat grass?"
"In order to commend everyone for their contribution, the funder has decided that in addition to the US$1 million agreed upon for the project, each comrade will receive an additional US$1,000 for each day in advance."
The five experts shook together and almost threw the cups in their hands on the ground.
One thousand dollars!
Every day!
"If the project is successfully launched in the end, we will add an additional bonus of US$100,000."
100,000 U.S. dollars, evenly distributed to each person, is 20,000 U.S. dollars.
You must know that in 1992, China's foreign exchange reserves were only US$20 billion, its per capita GDP was less than US$350, and the per capita monthly income of urban residents had just reached the level of 150 yuan.
At this time, the exchange rate of US dollar to RMB was 1:5.5, but the exchange ratio on the black market reached 1:7 or even 1:8.
After listening to the cakes painted by Qin Yi, not to mention the experts, even Gong Wei was a little frightened.
He grabbed Qin Yi's arm and whispered: "Hey, don't mess around. The bonus you promised is too high..."
"It's not like we're spending the country's money, so why are you in a hurry? Don't worry, Boss Zhao will pay for everything." Qin Yi said with great dignity, "The experts have worked so hard, so we can't treat them badly."
Then Qin Yi lowered his voice again, "According to international salary levels, their salary is sky-high compared to the salary of American programmers. If I let an American company do the project budget for a small amount of dollars, they wouldn't even look at me.
Yeah, I’ve already made a lot of money.”
Gong Wei was a little dumbfounded, "I said you gave too much. I'm afraid the experts will be stimulated. See for yourself."
At this time, the experts' faces were all red and fidgeting. Some were pinching their thighs, and some were covering their chests.
"Well, the effect is a bit beyond my expectation, but it doesn't matter, there should be no problem with their bodies...right?" Qin Yi looked at Gong Wei with some uncertainty, "Should we give them a physical examination?"
"That's not necessary. I've had a comprehensive examination before coming out. After all, your health is your capital." Gong Wei patted Qin Yi on the shoulder, "You don't have to worry about this."
"Then I'm relieved." Qin Yi took off his coat and clapped his hands, "Everyone, let's get going now. Get the coffee and supper ready. Oh, by the way, prepare breakfast in advance. Where's the sleeping bag?"<
/p>
Gong Wei's eyes suddenly widened, "It's only noon now!"
"Time waits for us." Qin Yi sighed, "A cargo plane will arrive at Kai Tak Airport the day after tomorrow, carrying IBM's latest large-scale server."
"The project needs to be launched as soon as possible, and I won't be able to delay it for long."
Gong Wei sighed and patted Qin Yi.
……
Ten computers are lined up in a row, Pentium 486, 16m of memory, 1g of hard drive, 14-inch monitor, 5.25-inch and 3.5-inch floppy drives.
This configuration is considered high-end at this time, and experts are quite satisfied with the hardware facilities.
The five experts quickly took action, each with two computers, writing code and testing by themselves.
I spent half an hour typing on the keyboard and writing code, leaving a few hours to fix bugs.
After all, it’s normal for more and more bugs to be written.
The five experts worked tirelessly and devoted themselves wholeheartedly to writing bugs under careful and meticulous logistical care.
While piling up code, several people would also have heated discussions.
"It's normal on my computer."
"This can't happen."
"Just changing one line of code will not affect the entire program, so don't worry."
"There's a problem? If there's a problem, it's because your testing method is wrong. What does it have to do with me?"
"This is only a temporary solution. I will modify the plan in the official version."
"There can be no problem with my code, it must be a hardware problem."
"Did you forget to clear the cache?"
"Try restarting your computer."
"I can't test all the functions. Give me some more time and I will definitely be able to improve it."
Qin Yi held the coffee with a smile, enjoyed the exquisite pastries, and watched the lively scene with great interest.
At the same time, he sighed: "Oh, this familiar feeling is so good."
"What familiar feeling?" Gong Wei looked at the experts with some worry, "They won't fight, right?"
"It's normal to fight, you don't have to worry." Qin Yi comforted Gong Wei without being surprised.
Gong Wei sighed, "Please tell me, can this chat communication system you built really be promoted to the whole world?"
"How is that possible?" Qin Yi replied without thinking, "If it is not popularized, it still has room for survival. Once it becomes popular, it will be banned immediately."
Gong Wei asked tentatively, "What if it's a clean software that strips off background monitoring?"
"That's even more impossible." Qin Yi smiled slightly, "If it can monitor software users, the Americans might be interested. If it can't, it will definitely not survive."
"Why?" Gong Wei was dumbfounded by this answer.
"Because the predecessor of the Internet itself was used for military purposes, Americans have been trying to monitor the entire network, especially as it develops into a global Internet, with users increasing rapidly every day." Qin Yi looked at Gong Wei seriously. p>
"The Internet is indeed convenient, but its convenience is often obtained by sacrificing privacy. Don't think this thing is very clean. Americans not only manipulate the Internet and software, but even leave backdoors in the hardware of those computers.
”
Gong Wei took a breath of air, "Is everything you said true?"
"Of course it's true. Don't think it's a fantasy. You can ask experts. These things are completely technically feasible." Qin Yi said seriously, "Be more careful when surfing the Internet in the future and don't put confidential things.
On computers connected to the Internet, even if they are not stolen by Americans, they will be stolen by hackers."
Gong Wei was a little confused, "Well, since this system can't be promoted, does it make sense for you to still develop this thing?"
"Of course." Qin Yi looked at the rows of computers with a complicated expression, "If we don't have our own system, we have to use someone else's system. I built this chat communication system to prevent American software from penetrating the domestic Internet. "Promoting it is not only a business behavior, but also a self-protection mechanism."
"The water on the Internet is very deep, we must grasp it in advance."
