Chapter 1005: Who's the Winner?
At this time, the atmosphere in the air was almost stagnant, and both Taylor and Gosling looked at Fang Chen nervously, as if they were two prisoners waiting for the final verdict.
However, Fang Chen didn't let the two of them wait long, and after a slight sigh, he said directly: "I agree with Gosling's opinion, since JAVA is not perfect now, then postpone its launch, and open source, so that programmers all over the world can use it for free without commercial use, so as to help JAVA become more perfect." ”
Open source?
Gosling was instantly overjoyed, as a programmer naturally has the spirit of open source, or the prosperity of modern computer software, in fact, is built on the open source spirit of programmers, based on the spirit of 'I make a thing, everyone to improve it, make our life and the world better'.
AND SELFISHLY, JAVA IS HIS SON, HE NATURALLY HOPES THAT JAVA CAN BECOME BETTER, SO THAT MORE PEOPLE CAN HELP JAVA BECOME BETTER, AS FOR WHETHER FANG CHEN CAN MAKE A PROFIT IN JAVA LIKE THIS, HE JUST THOUGHT ABOUT IT A LITTLE, AND THEN FLASHED IT, THIS IS FANG CHEN'S PROBLEM, NOT HIS PROBLEM.
TAYLOR IS A LITTLE WORRIED, OPEN SOURCE IS GOOD FOR PROGRAMMERS, FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF JAVA ITSELF, HE KNOWS, BUT FOR A COMPANY, IT IS NOT A GOOD THING, OPEN SOURCE IS LIKELY TO MAKE THE COMPANY IN JAVA A LOT OF MONEY CAN NOT BE RECOVERED, LET ALONE PROFITABLE.
Judging from his shallow understanding of the computer industry, all software, even including the operating system, can only be profitable if it is charged, and the free one can only be said to be playing tickets, and the programmer himself is entertaining, and it is okay to do it with the idea of contributing to the society and the computer industry.
Taylor and Gosling had very different performances, Fang Chen could see them all, and he nodded silently in his heart, he had already made a decision.
"JAVA IS FREE DOES NOT MEAN THAT THE COMPANY CAN'T MAKE MONEY, IT'S JUST A MATTER OF A LITTLE MORE AND A LITTLE LESS, FOR EXAMPLE, WE CAN SELL JAVA SUPPORTING SOFTWARE, AS WELL AS SELL LICENSES, ORDINARY USERS DON'T NEED MONEY TO LEARN AND USE JAVA, BUT IF THE COMPANY WANTS TO USE JAVA TO DEVELOP COMMERCIAL SOFTWARE, IT MUST BUY A SPECIAL LICENSE FROM QINGTIAN, OTHERWISE IT IS INFRINGEMENT. And I believe that if there are enough people using JAVA and the scope of JAVA is wide enough, the company can still make a lot of money on JAVA. Fang Chen said nonchalantly.
WHETHER JAVA CAN MAKE MONEY, HE HAS NEVER CONSIDERED IT, OR IF JAVA CAN'T MAKE MONEY, HOW DID THE $18.3 BILLION REVENUE OF SUN COMPANY AT ITS PEAK IN THE PREVIOUS LIFE, SECOND ONLY TO MICROSOFT'S MARKET VALUE OF $200 BILLION?
Before the dot-com bubble burst at the turn of the millennium, Sun was the world's second-most valuable company, employing 50,000 people worldwide, including Google's CEO Eric Schmidt and its first vice president of engineering, Wayne Rosen.
Of course, a considerable part of Sun's revenue composition is brought by operating systems and servers, but it is undeniable that JAVA occupies a very important position in Sun's revenue.
ALTHOUGH JAVA IS OPEN SOURCE, IT IS LIMITED OPEN SOURCE, WHICH IS AN OPEN SOURCE UNDER THE GPL LICENSE, AND IT IS NOT COMPLETELY FREE.
In other words, ordinary users have the freedom to use, disseminate, and modify, but they cannot be used for commercial purposes.
AS A RESULT, DYNASky can charge for a license and provide a fully integrated software development product suite for creating, debugging, and maintaining java, and even supporting other programming languages.
BUT ALL OF THESE NEED JAVA TO BE USED BY THE MAJORITY OF PROGRAMMERS AND SOFTWARE COMPANIES, WHICH MEANS THAT THE MORE PROGRAMMERS AND SOFTWARE COMPANIES USE JAVA, THE MORE DYNASky can earn.
After listening to Fang Chen's verdict, the corners of Gosling's mouth couldn't help but put a bright smile on his lips, and he even glanced at Taylor with the eyes of a victor.
But then, Gosling turned his head to look at Fang Chen, his eyes full of excitement and fanaticism.
Judging from today's events, it is indeed not wrong for him to choose to jump from Sun Company to Qingtian, Fang Chen is indeed a person worthy of his follow, as always, he respects technology and scientific research and technical personnel.
TAYLOR'S EXPRESSION SUDDENLY BECAME GLOOMY, BUT HIS FACE QUICKLY RETURNED TO THE SAME AS BEFORE, EVEN IF HE DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD BE BETTER TO RELEASE JAVA FIRST AND THEN IMPROVE IT SLOWLY, BUT SINCE MR. FANG HAD MADE THE FINAL DECISION AND THOUGHT THAT HIS IDEA WAS WRONG, THEN HE WAS WRONG, THIS IS AN IRON LAW OF QINGTIAN.
In Qingtian, before Mr. Fang made a final decision, maybe Mr. Duan could still discuss a thing or two with Fang Chen, but once Mr. Fang made the final decision, even Mr. Duan would only have the share to execute.
After all, Mr. Fang has never made a mistake, has he?
Thinking of this, Taylor's mood gradually calmed down.
"However, the person in charge of Qingtian Overseas, as well as the director of the JAVA Research Institute, Taylor and Gosling, did not complete the task on time, so I deducted one month of Gosling's performance salary according to the relevant regulations of the company, especially you Taylor has an unshirkable leadership responsibility, and another month's performance salary will be deducted. Fang Chen said slowly.
Hearing this, Gosling shrugged helplessly, agreeing with Fang Chen's punishment of him, after all, JAVA did not finish on time, he does have an unshirkable responsibility, besides, Taylor was punished more heavily than him, what is he dissatisfied?
Thinking of this, Gosling's eyes glanced at Taylor, but who knew that a look of excitement appeared on Taylor's face.
Seeing this, Gosling couldn't help but rub his eyes, yes, Taylor's eyes did light up with excitement.
Taylor: Isn't this sick?
He was fined a month's salary more than him, and he really didn't know what kind of excitement Taylor was about.
As if he hadn't noticed the completely different reactions of Taylor and Gosling, Fang Chen calmly said to Taylor: "Taylor, I hope you can take on the responsibility of the head of Qingtian overseas, care more about the progress of the company's research work, and really take responsibility, if there is a next time, it will not be as simple as two months' salary." ”
Taylor suddenly said, "Mr. Fang, I know, there is absolutely no next time." ”
Fang Chen waved his hand at the two of them expressionlessly, signaling where the two of them should go.
Gosling looked at it with a bewildered expression, swaggering, as if the whole person was shaking up in an instant.
Obviously, Fang always agreed with his opinion, and the punishment for Taylor was twice as heavy as him, and Taylor's performance at this time was as good as the winner tonight.
And, somehow, he felt as if something was missing.
Who exactly is the winner?
Gosling was a little confused for a moment.
What the hell.
"Commander Gao, I'm really stupid, I was sold by you, and I gave you back the money. Wu Maocai said with a look of hatred.
Looking at Wu Maocai's indignant appearance, Fang Chen suddenly smiled, "Listen to what you say, do you understand?"
Hearing this, Wu Maocai suddenly hugged the sky and said: "Ninth Master, look at what you said, I have been with you for so long, if I can't even understand this little thing, then I really lived in vain, you just threw me into the river behind the hotel." ”
"Even Gosling, a fool who only knows how to type code, doesn't understand the meaning of your words, you said that Taylor should take on the responsibility of his overseas head of Qingtian, care more about the progress of the company's research work, and really take responsibility, doesn't that mean that Taylor will really bring the affairs of the JAVA Institute into his management. The corners of Wu Maocai's mouth twitched, and he said with a disdainful expression.
The ninth master obviously took away the rights that originally belonged to Gosling and gave them to Taylor, there are fewer rights in his hands, and there is an extra mother-in-law on it, he really doesn't know what Gosling was happy about just now.
In fact, from the time when the ninth master punished Taylor for two months' performance salary, and only punished Gosling for one month's performance salary, he pondered that something was wrong.
In Qingtian, it has always been the leader who is punished more heavily than his subordinates, and the first responsible person is heavier than the general responsible person, so Taylor was punished more heavily, which obviously shows that Taylor is not only the leader of Gosling, but also the first person responsible for this incident.
Then, according to the rule that DynaSky has always had equal rights and responsibilities, that is, responsibilities and rights are equal, and how much power there is, how much responsibility must be borne.
Since Taylor's responsibility is greater than Gosling's, then the power must also be greater than Gosling's.
It's just that what makes him feel a little funny is that the ninth master punished Taylor and Gosling in a serious manner in accordance with the company's regulations.
Jiu Ye has never carefully read the company's management regulations, and he is not familiar with the company's management regulations, so how can he punish the two according to the company's regulations, this is obviously just a casual remark.
Seeing that Wu Maocai really understood, Fang Chen glanced at Wu Maocai approvingly.
"However, I have a question, Ninth Master, haven't you always emphasized that you should let the technical personnel make decisions, and you should respect the technical personnel? Why do you now give Gosling's rights to Taylor?" Wu Mao asked puzzled.
Fang Chen chuckled, "That's right, didn't I respect the technicians today?" In the end, I didn't take Gosling's advice and severely punished a manager like Taylor. ”
Hearing this, Wu Maocai was speechless for a while, and even couldn't help but roll his eyes, it was so shameless.
The words of the ninth master are indeed good, but the matter is not that at all.
The corners of Fang Chen's mouth curled slightly, and he also laughed, but he smiled and smiled, and suddenly the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, and he said with a somewhat helpless expression: "Qingtian is a high-tech company, a technology company, when it comes to technology, it is natural to listen to scientific research and technical personnel, which is why I finally chose to follow Gosling's advice." ”
"But in many things, scientific research and technical personnel must also obey the management personnel, so that the company can go better. ”
IN FACT, IN HIS OPINION, GOSLING'S OPINION IS INDEED CORRECT, SINCE JAVA IS IMMATURE, IT SHOULD BE POSTPONED FOR A FEW DAYS, AND HE IS NOT WILLING TO COME UP WITH A HALF-FINISHED PRODUCT TO CONFRONT MICROSOFT.
EVEN, IF IT'S NOT GOOD, JAVA'S CROSS-PLATFORM FEATURES, ONCE COMPLETELY MADE PUBLIC, WILL ATTRACT MICROSOFT'S STRANGULATION.
He believed in Bill Gates' alertness.
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN GOSLING IS NOT WRONG AT ALL, IF GOSLING COULD HAVE TOLD HIM ABOUT JAVA'S IMMATURITY AND IMPERFECTION EARLIER, AND FOUND A WAY TO SOLVE IT, JAVA MAY NOT BE ABLE TO BE PERFECTED IN TWO MONTHS.
IF GOSLING COULD HAVE TOLD HIM IN ADVANCE, HE COULD HAVE INVESTED MORE MONEY AND MORE PEOPLE TO IMPROVE JAVA, AND EVEN OPEN SOURCED JAVA IN ADVANCE, AND PROGRAMMERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD COULD HELP JAVA IMPROVE IT TOGETHER.
Gosling didn't do this, but kept trying to figure out how to solve the problem by himself, and he couldn't hold it anymore, so he told Taylor two days ago.
This is obviously a kind of mentality of scientific research and technical personnel, working hard to study technology to solve problems, thinking that they can solve all problems without the help of other people and the outside world.
Or maybe he simply doesn't think that the outside world and others can help him.
Of course, if scientific research and technical personnel can really do everything, and the decisions they make are correct, then the company and enterprise will not need any managers, let alone the necessity of politicians, and the people who are in charge of the world are intellectuals.
After all, intellectuals are the ones who have science, the truth, and the most powerful weapons in the world.
But the world is obviously not ruled by intellectuals.
This proves that intellectuals have huge shortcomings in managing the world.
As just before, Gosling and Taylor have been showing two very different performances.
Gosling has always cared about whether JAVA is good or not, while Taylor cares more about the interests of the company and has a bigger picture, which is obviously what Optimus needs more.
And he thought about it just now, the reason why Java has such a problem is related to Taylor's inability to meddle in the JAVA Institute, everything in the JAVA Institute is decided by Gosling, Taylor can only be in a hurry, and he doesn't even know what is wrong with JAVA.
Of course, it would be better if Gosling slowly possessed the qualities that a manager should have, positioning himself as a manager, rather than a scientific research technician, but Fang Chen felt that he could not see that day.
Looking at Gosling's performance in his previous life, Gosling is a typical programmer, and he is also a rich, headstrong programmer, otherwise he would not have worked in Sun for so many years, and not long after announcing that he would join Google, he walked away and fired the boss's squid.
Therefore, he can only give Taylor a part of Gosling's rights, at least let Taylor have a certain right to supervise and know, if he makes such a fuss again, he will really go crazy.
JAVA is so important that he not only relies on it to nourish and make Optimus stronger, but also an indispensable trump card in his hands in the future.
After nearly twelve hours on the plane, Fang Chen finally returned to Yanjing, and after a short stay with Su Yan in Yanjing for a few hours, it was agreed that Su Yan would come to Luozhou to visit the old man and Fang Aiguo in Luozhou, and after Liu Xiuying, Fang Chen rushed to Luozhou non-stop.
