One hundred and fifty-seven
Explanation: If the words of the 100 brothers of good luck are pessimistic, in fact, the proportion of Chinese standing at the top of the technological world is definitely very large. Kirin XS. I'm not familiar with the other starters, just IT, Wang An won't talk about it, that's the head of the older generation. Zhang Zhongmou, who has been a senior executive of Deyi for more than ten or twenty years, has become the godfather of Taiwan's semiconductors. Yu Youcheng, as we all know, is the hero of Intel. There are countless Chinese engineers within Intel, and many of them have been the head of the processor development team. As for IBM Tan Chongren and Xu Fengxiong, they are also very famous. Chen Shiqing, the king of supercomputers. There are also a lot of domestic ones, but everyone is probably familiar with them, so I won't talk about them.
Since this book is based on the perspective of **** people, it is understandable to find some Chinese as the main and supporting roles. As for the foul language on BBS, it's still polite.,The quality of foreigners is actually not very high.,I haven't said that **** things always occupy the highest click on BBS.。
As for the machine, let's talk about it tomorrow, hehe.

The inclusion of computers in the network has been around for a long time in the United States, not for military purposes that people take for granted (of course, it certainly includes such uses), but out of sheer frustration.
In the early days, computers were synonymous with "expensive", but they were really expensive and heavy, and they provided limited computing power, so they could only be placed in specialized locations such as computing centers.
However, the computing needs derived from social development could not be satisfied, so a compromise was adopted, that is, the computers were placed separately and shared using the already very developed public telephone network in the United States.
For example, Billgate's alma mater, Lakeside Middle School, was once funded by those parent groups to pull a cable from a computer room 40 kilometers away and set up a terminal to provide students with computer learning, which was said to be $40 per hour at the time (so it seems that Lakeside Middle School was still an aristocratic school, and it was a remnant...... )。
This is just a single computer providing those terminals with excess computing power and resource sharing, and in a broad sense, it already has a bit of a network meaning. With the increase of computers, the communication needs between machines are naturally put on the table, in order to better and faster connection, people have established a hierarchical communication system and the corresponding network communication protocol, so the real sense of the computer network for the purpose of resource sharing was born.
However, this earliest network was limited by the telephone network, once a circuit was disconnected, the entire network had to be paralyzed, in order to obtain high reliability, only speed had to be sacrificed, which is also the origin of the predecessor of the Internet, the ARPA network, that is, packet switching technology.
It's just that at this time, computers were still a rare thing, only research institutes, the military, and universities could have them, so the earliest ARPANET was built between these locations, and only relevant people could be reached, until it was made public in 83.
Xu Zhixing was one of the first people to come into contact with this new thing, he has been studying in the United States for three years, majoring in economic management in Massachusetts, but he is hopelessly obsessed with computer technology.
Of course, this obsession is not the so-called diligent study, everything is done, and the hardware and software are read for three days. Xu Zhixing's obsession is only based on the strong demand for computing technology in today's society, and he is keenly aware of the huge impact this thing will have in the future, and often imagines what kind of applications technology will have when it develops to a certain point.
At this time, the Internet also became popular in universities, and the campus networks of Massachusetts and Stanford were connected to the Internet, and the big price reduction of PCs also gave these students a stage to show themselves.
Those hackers ported the BBS that originally ran on Apple's second generation to the PC platform, and for a time this kind of campus BBS became the most lively place for information exchange. Xu Zhixing also posted his experience, but he didn't expect the response to be particularly strong.
At that time, Xu Zhixing was still working and studying, and he was often late at night when he went to BBS, but who knew that when he was reading the message that night, he found that a strange guy actually invited him to meet.
Xu Zhixing took it for granted that this guy must be a **** student at Stanford, but he didn't refuse, but just made an appointment with the time and place, and went down.
That's when I saw a Chinese restaurant.
After listening to Xu Zhixing's question for a long time, he simply pretended to be stupid: "Yes, I just came, I saw your masterpiece on BBS, and I admired it very much, and the id is pinyin, it seems that he is a master brother, hehe." ”
Xu Zhixing smiled: "Where, where, it's just a joke." ”
The two talked in Chinese and put Thomson aside, but fortunately Thomson was more calm and did not move.
After chatting for a while, I was surprised to find that Xu Zhixing was not from a computer class, but actually a student of management, and he couldn't hit one place with eight poles.
"Senior Brother Xu, you are really strong, you are so familiar with computers when you study economics, and you are also a pillar in China. This sentence comes from the bottom of my heart, if I also know how to manage, then I will not fall into this step.
Xu Zhixing smiled and waved his hand: "I'm a half-hanger, the duck is still hard when it's cooked, let me blow it, but it's not okay to really do it." ”
"There are so many hands-on people, and what is lacking is managers with this kind of vision. Chang Shen sighed, "I'm a technician, so I think the things you said can be realized, so I want to find you." ”
"Hehe, it's hard to think that you can't start a business with money. Xu Zhixing looked at it with interest for a long time, and there was an inexplicable expectation in his heart, although the kid in front of him was young, his bearing was extraordinary, he didn't dress like an ordinary poor ghost, is he a rich man?
Although the foreigner next to him did not speak, he was also sitting upright, and at first glance he was a very educated professional.
Having come to these conclusions, Xu Zhixing's heart couldn't help but beat faster, could it really be that money could really fall from the sky? Counting China, he has been studying for ten years, and all he wants is to open a company. When I arrived in the United States, I saw this world of flowers, almost everywhere there were opportunities, the so-called market was just based on the asymmetry of information, and the domestic response was still more than a beat, even if there was no future in the United States, it was safe to make money by copying it to ****, and what was lacking was a fund.
"I don't know what Senior Brother thinks. "Long is not a reckless person, start playing ball.
Xu Zhixing knew in his heart that it was time for him to behave, and coughed lightly: "I think so, the United States is the first developed country in the West, and all kinds of economic, cultural and technological technologies are scattered around the world in a radial pattern. If the reform and opening up goes smoothly now, it can be regarded as the United States in the past. Of course, this is just speculation, but there is one thing, and that is that the whole world is now revolutionizing!"
"Revolution?" said Chang Qi, "what revolution?"
"Economies are based on technological leaps, and the first two industrial revolutions have driven the world forward, and this one is no exception. Xu Zhixing said, "It has long been said that we are now in the midst of the third technological revolution, that is, computer technology." Whether it's true or not, it seems that there is a trend at present, both the United States and Europe are seeking computer applications, and the scale of both the hardware and software markets is expanding rapidly, and it is becoming a new industry. ”
"That's it. "Long understood," please continue. ”
"For example, IBM, have you heard of it, the world's largest computer company, its product line is all-encompassing, from giant computers to microcomputers, especially PCs have become a whirlwind in recent years, China may not understand this thing, but among young people and commercial companies in the United States, if you don't know about PCs, you are simply idiots. Xu Zhixing stretched his tongue and told IBM's historical materials again, from no PC at all to defeating Apple to become the standard, saying that it was vivid, and added a sentence at the end, "A success will be ten thousand bones, and the PC will represent the decline of the older generation of products, such as Wang An's company, what a pity, Wang An was a hero in the first half of his life, but he didn't see the trend of compatibility now, and tried to establish a new microcomputer standard by himself, but he failed miserably, IBM is also his nemesis, and he was defeated several times." ”
"Mr. Wang An is my idol, but I don't believe that he has no chance of turning the tables. "The market is still far from mature, as you envision, you can turn over at any opportunity." ”
Xu Zhixing shook his head: "Unlike Apple, IBM does not leak, the PC system is open, the so-called everyone picks up firewood and the flame is high, and all losses and prosperity are high, this is the root of IBM's success in defeating Apple, he is not alone." ”
"Then the senior brother means to take IBM as an example and join the PC competition. ”
"You mean compatible machines. Xu Zhixing said, "There is an opportunity here, but if we do it, at most we will have enough food and clothing, and we will always be able to eat other people's leftovers after IBM." Unless IBM's leaders have their brains caught in the door and voluntarily abandon this standard. ”
"I don't know if IBM will give up on standards. With a long smile, I have to admit that Xu Zhixing's judgment is still very accurate, and then IBM did take the initiative to give up the PC standard.
"Actually, we don't have to do these thankless businesses in the United States, the domestic market is chaotic, and there is a lot to be done. Xu Zhixing said, "The development of the computer market has not been many years, and now there will be some in the United States and there will be in China soon, so we only need to be the first in China." With the support of the domestic market, slowly accumulating funds, and Xu Tu's technical independence, this is the safe way. ”
"China is indeed a big market, but my brother may not know that now the import of PCs has been restricted in China. "Especially Intel's microprocessors, there is no place for them at all, and domestic software is basically based on 021 processors." ”
Xu Zhixing was stunned: "How can this be, isn't this resting on your laurels again." Modern industrialization is almost non-existent with microcomputers, so how can we catch up with developed countries without imports?"
"There is no need to worry about this, because there are already better alternatives in China, and they will be available soon. He said confidently for a long time that before coming to the United States, the K32 simplified version had been successfully developed, and the cost was less than one-third of the full version, but the performance was 70% of the full version, and the yield rate was greatly improved. The EC machine based on it is also under development, and everything is simple, just to be compatible with the old 0521 machine.
"That's it!" Xu Zhixing thought for a while, "If this is the case, of course there are joys and sorrows, there are independent things in the country, and there is no need to be controlled by others, but now the mainstream of the world is PC, and it is difficult to survive if it is incompatible." ”
"Don't be afraid of this, there was no PC in the past few decades, and there is no software based on it in China at all, but there are many software in 0521 machines, and there is still a foundation for survival. And the processors of the new products are powerful, which is not far behind Intel's most advanced processors, so don't worry. "For a long time, there is another thing that has not been said, that is, the EC machine is sold in Asia and Europe at the same time.
Xu Zhixing said with a smile: "It's really exciting to hear you say this, can domestic things really be so good?"
"Of course!"
"Then I don't have anything to do, I still have to learn my major, and I have to find a good owner when I return to China in the future. ”
"What's so difficult about this, a good boy is determined to create, how can he find so many good owners!" said with a long smile, "But if you want to find a owner, there is a good opportunity in front of you." ”
