Chapter 251: Developers
A pair of Yaoguang 1 computer ideas people, of course, is far more than Shudu group, graduated from the University of Defense Technology of a certain high-achieving student is also full of interest in Yaoguang 1 computer, even after graduation assigned to the Ministry of Petroleum Geophysical Prospecting Bureau Instrument Factory work, but he still put a lot of thought into the factory, the new purchase of Yaoguang 1 computer in the factory carefully studied.
Yaoguang 1's operating system is based on CCDOS improvements, even after a lot of testing before going on sale, but all kinds of bug problems still exist, and this recent college graduate, but miraculously found the problem, and also quickly made improvements, so that the computer's Chinese character input speed can be doubled.
The young man is called Qiu Bojun, who has solved the technical loopholes of CCDOS, and then when he enters Chinese characters on the computer, he can naturally save more than double the time.
Just when everyone bowed to Qiu Bojun, he himself fell into contemplation, because only he knew that what he solved was only the BUG of the Yaoguang 1 computer simply entering Chinese characters under the CCDOS operating system, and when the Chinese character office card produced by Kaiyang Semiconductor Company was plugged in, the Chinese character input speed still did not improve.
Of course, he understands that this is entirely due to the technical limitations of the cassette itself, and if he really wants to bring greater changes to the input speed of Chinese characters on the office card, there is only one way: start with the program of burning inside the cassette.
There are two solutions: reverse crack the program code of the cassette, or write directly to Kaiyang Semiconductor to tell him about the problem he found.
Of course, Qiu Bojun's choice is the second one, so there is the scene of Wang Zhengguo in the office now, he didn't expect to catch such a big fish this time, the famous Qiu Bojun, the most famous programmer in the Republic.
As one of the first batch of people in the Republic to make PC computer software, other software and hardware giants in the same period have gradually declined after the arrival of the new century, only Qiu Bojun and his PS software are still active on the computer in the new century, becoming the only existence on the market that can compete with office.
On the upper plane, it was also at the end of 84 years, Qiu Bojun found the CCDOS operating system bug on the unit computer, and took this opportunity to begin to develop in depth in the field of computer programs.
Immediately wrote a reply, for this famous programmer, Wang Zhengguo did not feel that he had to envelop people under his command, originally this Qiu Bojun is a good talent in technology and management, this kind of person can be in charge of his own after a good exercise, he can have his own career, and when necessary, he can point out.
"Hello, Mr. Qiu Bojun.
First of all, thank you for your trust in Kaiyang Semiconductor, for the letter pointed out in the CCDOS operating system BUG problem, we have informed Yaoguang Electronics, after confirmation, to find out that the system does have the problem, in order to express gratitude, Yaoguang Electronics will pay you 10,000 yuan remuneration, please write to inform the specific remittance method......"
The content of the first letter is very official, mainly to express Yaoguang Electronics' gratitude to Qiu Bojun himself, which is an absolutely indispensable part, as for the remuneration of 10,000 yuan, this is the rule that Yaoguang Electronics has set a long time ago, according to different personal contributions, different standards of economic remuneration will be given.
To say that this 10,000 yuan is definitely not a small amount in the Republic in the 80s, for Qiu Bojun, who has just stepped out of college to join the work, it is simply unthinkable, after all, Qiu Bojun's salary at this time is only 40 yuan a month.
To give a more intuitive example, in the 86th year of the upper plane, Qiu Bojun took the printer driver he developed to the imperial capital, and originally decided to go to Shenchuan to develop after taking a look at Tiananmen Square, but when he showed the print driver to his college classmates, this college buddy suggested: "Why don't you go to Sitong to try, maybe they will hire you." ”
At that time, Sitong had just launched a new type of printer, and there was a lack of suitable drivers, and Sitong was very knowledgeable, and only used 2,000 yuan to buy the copyright of the whole program, and it was paid in ten months, and then Sitong sold more than 600 sets of the product at a price of 500 yuan per set.
When Qiu Bojun later learned about this situation, he realized that he had lost a lot, but he didn't care, because two thousand yuan was already very good in his opinion, enough for the labor he needed to develop the program.
In his opinion, more important than 2,000 yuan is that the four-way printer driver made him understand the huge profits of the programming industry, and since then he has devoted himself to the programmer industry without hesitation.
Two thousand yuan made Qiu Bojun resolutely give up the establishment of state-owned enterprises, and instead devote himself to the tide of the program development industry, and now Wang Zhengguo has given him a more fierce stimulus, directly taking out 10,000 yuan, and he will definitely be able to pull this programmer into the sea in advance and embark on a brighter and correct path.
In this way, I have to write another letter in my personal name, fool around, and have a double insurance.
"From a personal point of view, the BUG program you modified is very level, in terms of software development, you should have enough technical ability, if you continue to work in the instrument factory, it is obviously buried talent, it is better to devote yourself to software development, Yaoguang 1 computer has disclosed the cassette interface, if you have an idea, you can develop program products for this.
Yaoguang Electronics' computers now have the largest market share in China, the most open compatible system, and there is even a high-tech development zone set up by the government in Shudu, as long as you develop software with market potential, you don't have to worry about anything else...."
The letter was sealed and sent out, and then it was necessary to wait quietly, whether this programmer could be fooled in advance on the Yaoguang 1 system, this is a question worth looking forward to, the upper plane begged Bojun to do software development under the IBM-PC system, and now let him change to a "boss", who knows what the result is.
Dealt with the problem of Qiu Bojun,Then open another cassette development report about Yaoguang1Computer,After half a year,Yaoguang1The open compatibility policy has also been effective,In addition to the official release of Yaoguang Electronics,There have been some developers in the market who have responded quickly to launch software。
The number of software developed to be installed directly on the computer's own memory is more than that of cartridge software, and there are probably more than 30 of them, but the role of these software needs to be studied, and the practicability is really hard to say.
The most eye-catching thing is that it is a CAD drawing software, which was developed by several college students in Shudu Aircraft Institute in their spare time, and only has a simple two-dimensional CAD drawing ability, and Wang Zhengguo also deliberately made a set for testing.
It hurts to use, and it's incomparable to CAD software decades later, and it's cumbersome and unresponsive.
If you want to say how much this thing has improved compared with manual drawing, Wang Zhengguo really doesn't think that the current version can have much advantage, the only thing that is commendable is that this thing has opened the history of domestic CAD drawing software.
