Chapter 030: Sermon

The whole word is ad-free] Chapter O3O Sermon

There were very few employees working in Steve's lab on the eighteenth floor, only one, and when Li Yan walked into the lab accompanied by Steve and Lei Jun, they didn't show much enthusiasm like those on the seventeenth floor, just looked up at them and continued to do their work.

"Lee, they're all genius students I recruited from Stanford University and UC Berkeley, and most of them are weird about sex, but they're all geniuses, please don't blame them. Steve said helplessly to Li Yan.

"Oh!" Li Yan was a little surprised to hear Steve's words, to be able to get Steve's recognition and be called a genius, these guys must not be wrong, to be able to recruit these geniuses to his company, he is too late to be happy, how can he blame them?

"That messy guy is Davide, a computer program maniac, and I lured him here with the kernel source code of the ghost's 'manipulation' system. Steve pointed to a guy who was slathering frantically on a keyboard in front of a computer and was somewhat similar to Albert Einstein.

"'Temptation'?!" Steve's words made Li Yan laugh.

"This guy is from the University of Berkeley, he has been working for the BSD system when he was in college, and he is very strong in the design and programming of the "operation" system, if there is no Steve's "operation" system core, people will never look at a small company like Taiji Software, but since he saw Steve's "operation" system, he has been reluctant to leave, and even proposed that as long as he can participate in the company's "operation" system opening, he can not pay a penny. Lei Jun added.

"How much did the company end up opening for him?" asked Li Yan, he had already given Lei Jun all the details of the company, so he didn't know what the company's price was for Davide.

"$300,000 a year. Lei Jun said.

Li Yan nodded, it is already very cheap to use 300,000 to retain a genius.

"Steve, where did you find this guy?" Li Yan asked Steve, turning his head.

"I heard about it from my own mentor at Berkeley, and I haven't told you yet, I also graduated from Berkeley, and I also participated in the kernel opening of the BSD system back then. Steve said with some smugness.

"What about the other five?" After listening to Davide's situation, Li Yan had already developed a strong interest in the other five people.

"Those two are also from the University of Berkeley, the guy who is dressed like a clown in a red shirt is called Williams, and the little white face in a white shirt is called Henry, they are both geniuses in wireless communication, and this time they can successfully make the ghost "operate" the system to achieve G** communication, and their help is inseparable. Steve said as he pointed to the two guys who were also looking at the board.

"The other two were recruited by me from Stanford University, and their specialty is computer graphics, Lee, you know the position of the Stanford School in computer graphics. Steve pointed to the other two young men who were dressed normally. There are no ads in the whole word

"Graphics?" asked Li Yan.

"Yes, graphics, Lee, if we want to make a graphical interface based on my ghost 'operation' system, a professional in computer graphics is a must, you know that my computer graphics is not particularly good, my specialty is 'operation' systems and network communication, and I can also do it in electricity, but graphics is not my specialty. Steve said with a shrug.

"Well, we need talents in computer graphics," Li Yan nodded in agreement, and then asked, "But I'm afraid it's not enough for the two of them, besides, are you going to set up the 'operation' system in this laboratory?"

"Of course it's not enough, these two people can be here, which means that this is Steve's genius, the 'operation' system department is located on the seventeenth floor, but Steve's requirements are too strict, so there hasn't been much recruitment so far, and Steve and I interviewed a few people in person yesterday, but they were not very satisfied. Lei Jun said.

"Strictly right, after all, our direct competitor in the future is Microsoft, and it is not easy to take food from it. Li Yan agrees with Steve's approach.

As the four of them spoke, they had come to a workbench with a palm-sized box embedded with a circuit board connected to a keyboard and a ten-inch LCD panel, as well as a speaker and a microphone.

Steve "plugged" the power supply on the circuit board into a "plug" socket, and then pressed a switch on the box, and the LCD showed a scrolling message when the system was loaded, and after a minute, a black and white "color" interface appeared on the LCD screen, and the information on it contained the information and signal strength of the G** service provider embedded in the circuit board, and nothing else.

Steve typed a phone number on the keyboard, and soon there was a prompt on the screen that he was dialing, and there was a beep from a speaker next to him, and the phone that Steve had put on the table rang, and he picked up the phone and handed it to Li Yan.

Li Yan tried to say two words on the phone, his voice came from the speaker connected to the circuit board, Steve also said two words into the microphone, and his words also came from the phone, and the overall call quality was not bad.

After Li Yan hung up the phone, Steve demonstrated some of the applications embedded in this demo board, he focused on demonstrating the network functions of this circuit board, using this system to log on to several newsgroups he frequented, received emails, and then explained to Li Yan some of the technologies used in the demo board using wireless networks, and the Internet technology used here is actually still using Steve's ghost "" The kind of communication technology embedded in the system that can be directly connected to the satellite, but now they are not connected to the satellite in the sky, but a wireless signal receiver set up by Steve in the laboratory, and this receiver is connected to another server in the laboratory, in this sense, the Internet technology used by this demonstration board is the same as the popular wireless broadband technology in the later world, but the communication protocol used is not the popular 8O2.11G in the later world, but the communication protocol opened by Steve himself.

After watching Steve's demonstration, Li Yan and Steve Leijun discussed the future direction of mobile phones and talked about "sex" Even because his English is not very good, Lin Dan, who has been playing the dumb since he came here, also has a strong interest in several mobile phone models drawn by Li Yan, and gradually joined everyone's discussion, and Li Yan fully played his important role as a reborn person in this discussion, and the direct result of the nearly two-hour discussion was that Steve was eager to put it into action immediately, and realized some of the ideas mentioned by Li Yan in the discussion one by one。

"Steve, I will stay in the United States for a month, and I will write a chapter of my thoughts within this month, if the world can really develop in the direction we just discussed, then you will be the father of smartphones in the world, and our Taiji software will also become the leader of smartphone standards, so come on, the future world belongs to us." When Li Yan said these words, his outstretched palms were tightly clenched into a fist, as if he wanted to hold the world in his hands, and he watched Steve and Lei Jun move a little "tide" Red cheeks, and feel that he is like a god stick, and Steve, Lei Jun and even Lin Dan will be his first batch of believers, as for whether this world is in the direction they discussed, Li Yan as a reborn person has not doubted at all, although his appearance has changed some things, but the general direction of this world is not something he can easily change, maybe one day he may accumulate enough power to change the direction of this world, but it is definitely not now.

In the afternoon, he, Lin Dan, Lei Jun and Steve gathered in an office again and started a new round of discussion, but this time the discussion was not about the smartphone that Steve was studying, nor was it the Tai Chi "operation" system, but a small program like a toy in Steve's view. Yes, when Li Yan motioned to Lin Dan to demonstrate the main functions of ICQ for the two of them, the expression on Steve's face was like this, of course Li Yan knew his thoughts, with Steve's strength, such software is estimated to be able to write one in a day.

"Steve, this software is really simple compared to opening a 'operation' system, but if there is such a software for you to use for free, will you love it and use it as a communication tool that you often use, and even use it to replace some phone functions?" Li Yan asked Steve with a smile after Lin Dan finished explaining.

"It's simple, but it's creative, and if there's such a software, I'd be happy to use it to communicate with my friends, because it's free compared to a company that wants to fuck me if I don't say a minute on the phone. Steve said with a shy smile.

"Li Yan, according to the design architecture of this software, if it is to be deployed on the Internet in the future, it will definitely require a lot of money, do we really want people to use it for free?"

Li Yan did not answer Lei Jun's question directly, but switched out the report he wrote on the computer on the strategic planning of ICQ's future exhibition, and said to the three people present very seriously: " Before talking about this report, I will explain a point, the next thing I want to talk about will be gradually implemented by the two of you in accordance with this plan, this small software will also become one of the basic platforms of Taiji Software's network strategy in the future, its hidden huge profits and the market will be unimaginable, and what we have to do now is to firmly grasp it in our hands before the market has not really become a market, and today my report is the core secret of the company, and no one can reveal it at will. ”

After all three of them nodded their heads in understanding, Li Yan began to explain the strategic planning report on Tai Chi Software's network communication that he had written before coming to the United States, and his entry point was the instant messaging software ICQ that Lin Dan had just demonstrated. He first explained in detail why ICQ operates for free, and how to use the ICQ platform to launch a series of value-added products and services after ICQ successfully has a huge user base, of course, he did not copy Tencent's approach to these products and services, after all, Tencent can be regarded as a domestic Internet company in China, and some of its services and practices may not necessarily work in the United States, so he has carried out a series of processing and transformation of these practices according to his own understanding, in order to leave room for Lei Jun and Steve, he mentioned each idea did not pay attention to development, but stood at a strategic height to summarize the outlineEven so, these thoughts were enough to make Lei Jun and Steve and Lin Dan dumbfounded.

Halfway through the report, Li Yan put forward another idea that made Lei Jun and Steve feel crazy, that is, the concept of search engines and online service stores in later generations. After a long silence, at this time they only had one thought in their hearts, that is, Li Yan was crazy, if he implemented and realized these ideas one by one, what kind of degree would Taiji Software swell to in the future, they didn't dare to imagine, maybe at that time, it was enough to be worth two Microsofts, God, this is crazy, and it seems that Li Yan's explanation is not over yet.

As for Lin Dan, because she doesn't have the same insight as Lei Jun and Steve, and she doesn't realize what Li Yan is explaining will bring to the world in the future, she just thinks that Lei Jun and Steve's drastic changes in their expressions are very interesting, and she doesn't have to worry about the future at all, she just needs to do everything that Li Yan "handed" to her step by step according to Li Yan's arrangement.

Giving Lei Jun and Steve a moment to digest, Li Yan started a new explanation, this time he explained the concept of future software services, and on this basis, he gradually talked about the integration and unification of mobile communication networks and traditional Internet...... In the end, he put together all the previous content and proposed the concept of the future computer software and network ecosystem, until this time his report was gradually coming to an end.

"The ultimate goal of Taiji Software in the future is not to defeat a certain software company, but to establish a software and network information ecosystem that belongs to Taiji Software As a system ecosystem, and the second is ubiquitous network services based on ICQ and search engines, as the leader of the giant aircraft carrier of Taiji Software, I need a few trustworthy good helmsmen, and you and Qiu Bo's army who are still in China will be the most trustworthy helmsmen to help me sail the Taiji aircraft carrier to the other side of success. In the end, Li Yan said, at this moment, his eyes on Lei Jun and Steve's eyes were full of sincere trust.

"Thank you for trusting me and for helping me achieve this ambitious goal. At this time, Li Yan stood up and bowed deeply to the two.
