Chapter 674: The Seventh Dragon Ball
The continuous glass blocks the dripping rainwater and retains the heat in the greenhouse, allowing the flowers to bloom despite the cold wind.
In the flower wall and flower pot, Tang Jiayi sat cross-legged on a rattan chair, holding a mobile phone in her left hand and placing it on her overlapping calf, and her right hand kept sweeping back and forth above the screen.
On her fair wrist she wears a pink rose gold bracelet with a metallic sheen. The warm pink color looks soft and charming, the flat surface of the bracelet is polished into a continuous intertwined curved style, and the front of the back of the hand is staggered with a large number of colorless broken diamonds, forming an elongated double ∞ pattern, which complements the metal ring body and the curve of the wrist, adding a lot of elegance and romance to the wearer.
The wrist is close to the screen, a broken diamond on the bracelet emits a faint blue light, and then the mobile phone screen automatically turns on and unlocks, the blue light disappears from the wrist and the screen is locked, and then the bracelet lights up with a flashing red light, and the screen goes off after two seconds. When she brought her wrist back to the screen, the screen lit up again, obviously this bracelet is not an ordinary decoration, there should be an RFID radio frequency identification chip or similar module inside.
Tang Jiayi finally got tired of playing, looked up at Atletico Madrid, raised her right wrist to show the rose gold commemorative version of the bee bracelet, "Didn't you say that you changed to a new CPU, why didn't you feel any changes?"
"Of course, there are changes, the new BH501 has a smaller area and lower power consumption, so that it can be tucked into that thin bracelet without making you feel heavy in handcuffs. ”
"It's okay, even if it's a few times heavier, I don't have a problem, this is a rose gold!"
"What's wrong with rose gold? It's not that you don't have jewelry and watches of this color, and I haven't seen you wear them a few times before. ”
"Isn't this popular now," Tang Jiayi blinked and looked at Atletico Madrid with a smile: "Or are you that straight man cancer, you don't dare to see other men's big and generous people using pink mobile phones, so you have to say 'fans' behind your back?"
The iPhone6s released a few months ago sold quickly after it was launched, especially the rose gold used for the first time is crazy popular, whether it is a lady who loves powder, or a man who works hard to dress up and sell cute and cute small fresh meat, without exception have been captured by this color, making this color quickly enter the public eye and become a popular trend. Ladies are okay, but men's use of pink mobile phones inevitably makes some people feel unaccustomed, so there are "fans".
Of course, there is a show-off psychology of "how can it look like this is 6S if you don't buy pink", but it also reflects the general trend of men becoming more and more soft and cute in this era when selling cuteness and small fresh meat is popular. The rise of rose gold is the result of Apple's color designers keenly grasping fashion trends. And this time, they clearly got the bet right.
Since the popularity has appeared, other manufacturers will not let Apple specialize in the front, the fastest action is the jewelers, have pushed rose gold jewelry and watches, anyway, rose gold, the alloy of gold, copper, silver and silver is originally a commonly used jewelry material, only need to change the raw materials; clothing dealers are not slow, but also come up with pink men's clothing to test the market.
Consumer electronics manufacturers are slower, because it will take some time for their partners to come up with similar organic dyes and suitable dyeing processes, and for the time being, they can only use ordinary pink or rose gold shells to meet the emergency.
At the just-concluded CES, several rose gold or pink products were released, Samsung launched a platinum/rose gold dual version of the GearS2 smart watch, and Bee also came out with a rose gold shell of the bee bracelet M5. I believe that by the MC Mobile World Congress next month, there will be more products of this color on the market, at least Bee Communication will not miss it, and the warm-up poster released by the official bib in the past few days has made a fuss about the back cover of the mobile phone with this color.
Hearing his wife questioning his straight male cancer, Atletico immediately said that he couldn't bear it, clenched his fist and coughed twice in his mouth, and said in a low voice: "Ahem, don't you know if I'm straight or not?" I know your depth, and you also know my hardness. ”
"you, what are you talking about?" With a shy and angry scolding, a pink pig's head was tossed up and flew straight towards Atletico Madrid. In fact, if she heard such a yellow joke in a private place such as a bedroom, maybe she would have regarded it as a boudoir interaction, but at the moment, it was in the half-outdoor rooftop garden, and she couldn't allow someone to get an inch.
The volume of the pig's head pillow is too large, and the drag coefficient is too high, so it is naturally gently and skillfully reached out and taken off, and the other hand is knocked on the pillow like a gong, and Atletico Madrid looks at his wife provocatively, which naturally causes the other party to be angry.
Tang Jiayi's pretty face was disgusted, and she glared at Atletico Madrid and said: "You spend all day drinking in Las Vegas, and I take care of the children at home!"
A red apple came out of his hand, turned into a throwing weapon and flew towards the target, but was easily caught, "Kacha" took a big bite, "I'm on official business and work!"
"Why did you go to California, and don't tell me that CES has a branch in California?"
"The University of Berkeley invited me to visit, so I stopped by to have a look. ”
"What, you're planning to come back with a real doctor?"
"Not bad. ”
"Do you dare?" A handful of green dates turned into a sky of blue rain and smashed towards Atletico Madrid, who lowered his head and bit the apple, and finally caught the green dates with both hands, but his mouth was occupied by half an apple, and his speech all became "Woo hey!"
"Haha, see what else can you say?" Tang Jiayi stretched out her hands to the fruit bowl, banana in her left hand and star fruit in her right hand, intending to make persistent efforts to defeat the big demon king of Atletico Madrid.
At the critical moment, Atletico Madrid quickly burst out of potential, a big mouth bit hard, and swallowed half of a big apple in a few clicks, seeing Tang Jiayi threatening to launch a banana rocket, he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll surrender!
"Hmph!" Throwing the star fruit back to the fruit plate, Tang Jiayi sat back on her rattan chair, and shook the swing-style chair several times.
Atletico Madrid "clicked" and ate the big green jujube in his hand, and then spit out the jujube kernel and spit it all in the ecological garbage bin next to it.
"Yo, Ma Daxia actually learned Qiu Qianqi's jujube core nails, congratulations, congratulations!"
"Smile and smile," Atletico walked over and pulled out a wet towel to wipe his hands clean, and sat down in another gondola rocking chair.
"By the way, I almost forgot about what you did!" Tang Jiayi tapped her forehead, "You haven't said what you're going to do in Berkeley?"
As engineering dogs, the University of Berkeley in the mouths of the two is naturally not Berklee College in New York, nor Berklee College of Music, where Leeh graduated, but UCBerkeley and the University of California, Berkeley, which are well-known in the technology circle.
UC is actually just an administrative concept, and the 10 public universities in California have a unified UC prefix before their names, which scared the original Chinese translators, so there are 10 branch campuses, but there is no "University of California" with a headquarters.
As the oldest and most powerful university in California, Berkeley can also be seen as the headquarters and leader of the enlargement. Not to mention his other contributions, the large number of Berkeley graduates in Silicon Valley and the existence of BSD (Berkeley Software Suite, a Unix derivative system) and its derivatives are a testament to the school's contribution to the IT field.
And this time Atletico Madrid was invited to visit, also because Berkeley came up with another thing that affected the industry, and then intersected with bees.
Atletico stretched out his hand and poked his wife's right wrist, "Didn't I tell you, this time we have a new structure for the Bee Heart 501." They invited me to visit and exchange because of that. ”
"This?" He raised his wrist again and took a closer look, except that he found that the dot matrix display panel composed of small rhinestones was very well made and looked a little literary and artistic, but he didn't find anything abnormal.
The M5 bracelets released this time are all handmade by Atletico Madrid, and there are only 17 pieces in total, which are properly limited and out of print. Because some fine accessories were not in place in time, the final assembly work was not completed until the United States, but after the press conference, 5 pieces were sent out by Atletico Madrid, and the company left 10 pieces to continue to display, and the remaining bracelet number 01 was worn on Tang Jiayi's wrist, and No. 02 naturally entered her drawer collection box, anyway, Atletico Madrid disliked the pink and gold lady.
Quietly rolled his eyes at his wife in his heart, "Eating eggs doesn't matter what the chicken looks like", Atletico patiently explained: "I told you before that the 501 equipped with the M7 is a new architecture CPU. But to be exact, it should have been replaced with a new instruction set, RISK-V, and this instruction set is from UCBerkeley, and he..."
"Wait!" Tang Jiayi stretched out her left hand to interrupt his words, frowned and asked: "I know the x86 used by PCs, the ARM used by mobile phones, and I have also heard of Loongson's MIPS, what the hell is this RISK5?"
"It's not the hell, it's a new instruction set. About 10 years ago, Berkeley professors planned to study CPU design, and found that x86 was closed and unlicensed, ARM was open and not changed, MIPS was Stanford, openPOER was too complex, and openSPARC was GPL, so they decided to make an open source CPU based on BSDLicense, and then spent 4 years to make RISK-V. ”
The GPL and BSDL are the most well-known licensing terms in the open source field, the former is more radical, requiring that software that uses open source code must also be kept open source, and the latter is more relaxed, originally used on BSDunix, Berkeley allows others to use and modify its code for free, and does not force open source but only requires authors to be acknowledged.
This is well received by large companies, indos uses part of the BSD code, and the MacOSX system launched after Jobs returns to Apple is based on BSD secondary development, adding its own private code and then packaging it into closed-source software.
The same applies to bees, where RISK-V is released under a permissive BSD license, giving bees the opportunity to build their own CPUs.
Tang Jiayi reached out to touch Atletico Madrid's forehead: "Have you watched too much people's simulcasts? Why do you always want to be autonomous, the operating system is the whole one, and the CPU must also be autonomous?"
"It's not to save you a few dollars to buy bags of perfume, ARM instruction sets cost money to buy, and to create chips have to pay 3% royalties for others, if you have a completely automatic CPU, these two money will not have to pay. ”
"Also, this year we will negotiate the renewal of the v7 instruction set licensing agreement, and we have our own CPU architecture, which will also be able to drive down the price when the time comes. ”
After all, the 32-bit v7 instruction set is old, and the licensing fee and royalty ratio set by British companies are much lower, because it is cheap enough to be widely used in the fields of routers, industrial control chips and the Internet of Things. Bee's low-end biscuit cards, bracelets and other products also use v7 architecture processors, but people always don't think there are many benefits, so Atletico Madrid specially created M5 bracelets that use new CPUs to promote everywhere, the purpose is to reduce prices.
"It's just to lower the price," Tang Jiayi frowned, although she is not in the ICT industry, she still has basic common sense every day, "just to reduce the price, and then start from scratch to get a brand new processor, isn't it too troublesome?"
"Nothing else, the MIPS camp has shrunk so much, companies have been acquired, and although SPARC and Alpha are also reduced instruction sets, they are also pursuing performance as servers. And their industrial supporting facilities are worse than the other, the first two are not mixed up before open source, and then there are domestic companies to do embedded applications, but small enough to be put into the bracelet is not. As for Alpha, its father DEC couldn't get mixed up and was accepted by Compaq, Compaq couldn't get mixed up and was accepted by HP, and then Alpha didn't have it, Shenwei that was the patent that the military Jiangnan saw expired, so he took over and made it himself, and it was not sold at all, so it was better for us to do it ourselves. ”
"Besides, RISK-V is new, with fewer instructions and a booklet, so it's actually easier to get started. ”
"Oh yes, the architectures I just said are quite familiar.,It seems that they've all been on the hookup.,14,Plus x86 and ARM.,And your RISK-V.,This is a collection of seven CPU architectures.,Can you summon the dragon?"
"Shenlong can have it," Atletico said with a smile: "When the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology organizes a meeting on the national instruction set architecture plan, I propose to name the future national instruction set LoongISA, or DragonISA." ”
"Very good, it's a puppy to break your promise!"
