The WilliamsX lab has been unobtrusive and low-key before. This time, the Java language was suddenly released, and the whole world was shocked!

From the name, one quickly discovers the relationship between WilliamsX Labs and Henry Williams, the richest man in the world. It's clear that WilliamsX Labs was founded by Henry Williams. As a result, people can't help but wonder what kind of project the WilliamsX lab is still working on.

The surprise that Java brings to people is so great!

The impact of the release of Java on the entire Internet and the entire computer industry is huge, and it is a major milestone!

In addition to java, what other surprises will WilliamsX Labs bring?

Henry Williams was so rich, he must have set up a laboratory to study something extraordinary!

However, the level of secrecy in WilliamsX's lab was extremely high, and they were allowed to inquire and did not hear anything.

In fact, the projects studied by WilliamsX Lab are java, wifi, Bluetooth, P2P. Henry's return to the United States this time is to start building more projects, robotics, artificial intelligence, nanotechnology, high-tech energy (solar energy, nuclear fission, nuclear fusion) and so on......

Launched in the United States and Canada in April 1994, in Europe in June and in China in October, Williams Electronics' first-generation phone was not yet perfect in terms of functionality, but with an excellent form factor and built-in contacts and wap functions. As a result, sales exceeded 20 million units, becoming a dark horse that entered the mobile phone market in 1994! A mobile phone costs less than $300. The price was $500, and the final revenue was $10 billion. $4 billion in profit!

Williams Telecom has gained more than 2 million new subscribers because of its cooperation with Williams Electronics!

In 1995, Williams Electronics was ready to launch the second generation of mobile phones, Bluetooth mobile phones, and wanted to flip Motorola mobile phones and make Williams Electronics the manufacturer with the largest sales of mobile phones!

However, it is still in the stage of secrecy.

……

……

Williams Electronics Company.

"Boss, DEC only agreed to sell the Alpha architecture processor department to us, and sell the other departments to Compaq! It seems that Compaq has taken a fancy to DEC's computer business, and they are paying a higher price than us!"

A middle-aged man in a crisp suit with a middle part reports to Henry's office.

"Okay. Anyway, what I want to buy most is the Alpha Architecture Processor Division!" Henry smiled faintly, "How much does DEC ask for?"

"$3 billion!" replied the middle-aged man.

"$3 billion, alright, Smith, buy it!" Henry thought about it for a moment and nodded, then thought of something, and said, "Also, sell us their stake in 3DFX as well!"

"Okay, I'll talk to them right away. 3dfx is just a humble company, presumably DEC is willing to sell shares!"

"Hmm!" Henry replied, and asked the middle-aged man to hurry up and complete the acquisition.

Three days later, Williams Electronics acquired DEC's Alpha Architecture Processing Division and a 30% stake in 3dfx for $3.01 billion.

Alpha processor. Although the processing speed is the fastest, it is still a bit expensive in terms of price, and the key point is that it is not supported by Microsoft. Even Apple's system doesn't support Alpha processors. As a result, promotion is extremely unfavorable. It must be improved!

Now, the Alpha processor is in Henry's hands. It doesn't matter if the windows system supports it or not, at least Apple and Linux will support the Alpha processor! In fact, with the embarrassing relationship between Microsoft and Intel, Williams Electronics launched the Alpha processor, and Microsoft will most likely not support it, at least it is impossible to maximize the performance of the Alpha processor!

Henry was ready to have people redevelop a stronger processor on the basis of the original, and DEC had no money to continue developing the Alpha processor, resulting in an extremely good processor that could crush Intel at the time finally disappeared, and Henry came to the rescue!

Now that Alpha is in Henry's hands, he won't let the bad money drive out the good money!

“AlphaPower”！

The name of the new processor is "AlphaPower", and the more powerful Alpha!

Henry wants to let "Alpha" make Intel fat and let it know what is powerful!

To this end, Henry decided to invest $2 billion in the development of the AlphaPower processor.

Soon, the Alpha processor architecture development department moved to the headquarters of Williams Electronics in San Jose, where Henry told them: "The reason why the Alpha processor failed is mainly because of the problem with DEC's development strategy, and now, we want to develop more powerful processors, and we have to work with Apple, just like Microsoft and Intel!"

"Intel has Microsoft support, and Alpha has Apple support. Now it seems that their combination is a little stronger, but I believe that sooner or later, the Alpha-pple alliance will defeat the Wintel alliance!!"

"The Alpha Processor Architecture Division will be spun off and Alpha will be formed, and we're going to develop a new processor called 'AlphaPower,'" Henry said. I will inject two billion dollars into the company, it doesn't matter how much money is burned, but the technology must be improved!"

"In order to make everyone more motivated, the treatment of all Alpha employees has increased by 20%, and the company will launch an equity incentive plan to give 10% of the shares to reward employees who have contributed to the company!" Henry was also worried that the treatment would be too bad and they would change jobs. These engineers are outstanding talents, and one less is a loss!

As soon as Henry's words were finished, the employees suddenly became excited!

"Thank you, Mr. Williams!"

"Thank you, Mr. Williams!"

“……”

Snap and clapp!

Henry smiled, raised his hand, and motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then he appointed Richard, Alpha's chief architect and head of the department, as Alpha's CEO.

Richard was in his forties, about 180cm tall, flat-headed, and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and he was the first processor designer to propose the Alpha architecture. He was very surprised by Henry's appointment of him as the company's CEO, and hurriedly said: "Thank you Mr. Williams for your trust, I will work hard to manage Alpha!"

Henry smiled and nodded.

In addition to Richard, Alpha has a lot of talents, including Derrick-Meyer, who designed the K7 processor for AMD in his previous life, James-Keller, who designed the K8 processor, Daniel-Leibholz, who developed UltraSPARC-V for sun, and many architects who designed the StrongARM-110 processor.

On the contrary, the StrongARM-100 processor project was proposed by Inlet and cooperated with DEC, but after the collapse of DEC, the brain drain, and Intel itself did not have the ability to do a good job in the StrongARM-100 processor project, and in the end the project could only be stillborn!

It can be seen that Intel is not good......

(It's been three shifts, hehe, there are only two shifts at night)
