Chapter 340: ABC-PC
To fight against Microsoft, which has already attracted most customers on the market, as a latecomer, Yuheng Software chooses to release a killer feature and conditional open source!
"Hetu operating system will be sold in two modes in the future, one is the most complete installed version developed by Yuheng software, which improves all aspects to the best and can be directly installed for computer use. ”
The full version of the Hetu operating system is not what Jobs wants, nor is it recommended by Wang Zhengguo, and the second authorization model is the main thing.
"The other is the pure version of open source code, the computer factory only needs to give Yuheng software enough system royalties, you can make various improvements to the system by yourself, the pure version that will be updated in the future will only be responsible for upgrading and improving the core part of the operating system, and if you join the alliance, you will be the first manufacturer to obtain the permission. ”
The solution given by Wang Zhengguo is very simple, for ordinary customers, the full version of the Hetu operating system will be directly sold, and for the whole machine manufacturers with strong development capabilities, they can choose to provide a pure version of the open source solution.
As long as Jobs is willing to work with the foundation to take over the whole computer department of Wang An Computer Company, the units under the foundation can provide comprehensive support and provide strong support for Jobs' road to revenge.
As for whether the routine of in-depth development of the authorized operating system is effective, just look at the MIUI and EMUI issued by the Android system in the depth of the republic, and we know that those manufacturers who can carry out in-depth development of the system have largely met the needs, and naturally have a higher degree of recognition and viscosity for the core developers of the system.
Now Wang Zhengguo directly took out the Android routine, Rao is Jobs, who was originally full of uncertainties, is also quite moved, this plan is indeed very sincere and reliable!
"Very good, I am very satisfied with the operating system, and now I feel more and more that it is necessary to take down the whole machine business of Wang An Computer Company according to what you said, as for the CPU problem, I heard that you are using a British company to design and license production?"
Obviously, Jobs is not too interested in the Kaiyang series processors produced by Kaiyang Semiconductor, and when it comes to this key technology, he personally prefers to develop it by himself, so as to ensure that it can fit perfectly with computer hardware and systems.
In the past, when he was in Apple Computer, the biggest shortcoming was the CPU, but now to build another company, he must build the best industrial chain structure from the beginning.
"Old Qiao, I listen to what you mean that you also plan to introduce the technology of the Acorn Company, and finally design and produce the CPU by yourself, and not purchase Kaiyang's products, right?"
I have to sigh at the viciousness of Jobs's vision, and I can see at a glance that Kaiyang Semiconductor does not have its own core technology in the CPU field, and this guy immediately plans to set up his own door.
"I'm afraid I don't have enough energy to straighten out the CPU side in the early stage, and I may still need to purchase Kaiyang Semiconductor's 905CPU, but to be honest, I will gradually transition to independent design in the later stage, but you can rest assured that as long as Kaiyang Semiconductor's process technology can meet the needs, all the CPUs will be handed over to Kaiyang foundry in the future." ”
Mainly because he was afraid that his requirements were too much, Jobs then proposed that the CPU he designed over there would be given priority to Kaiyang OEM, which sounds like a small compensation, which may not be bad.
In fact, he thought too much about it this time, Wang Zhengguo is still relatively open to this aspect, isn't it necessary to customize it in depth on the CPU, which is completely understandable.
"This can also be agreed, and there is even a proposal, as long as you have enough liquidity on hand, I can facilitate your side and Kaiyang Semiconductor to join forces to take a stake in Acorn Company in the United Kingdom, so that it will become a manufacturer specializing in the supply of semiconductor IP design, and this company will formulate the CPU standard of the alliance in the future. ”
For the word "alliance", Jobs very keenly grasped the essence of it, and after thinking about it, this time is not to reformulate a powerful alliance that can compete with or even replace IBM-PC in the era of graphical operating systems!
In the past, IBM-PC was able to take the latecomer and knock out the personal computer pioneer Apple in one fell swoop, relying on open source and compatibility, and gathering the strength of everyone in the form of an alliance to determine its industry benchmark status.
This time, it seems that Steve Jobs is involved in the creation of another powerful alliance, which sounds exciting enough, and now he is preparing to destroy the IBM-PC system that he was a formidable rival when he was Apple's CEO.
"No problem, the Apple shares I have on hand are relatively valuable, and now that I have re-established a computer company, there is no need to continue to hold Apple shares, it is better to sell them all and cash out, so money is not a problem." ”
After making up his mind, Jobs trembled, and Apple stock was not attractive to him, this is Jobs, a crazy genius!
Seeing that Jobs was ruthless, Wang Zhengguo added: "Since you can't get it, then destroy it completely!"
"Apple, betrayed my !!"
Jobs' face was full of anger, and Wang Zhengguo knew that he had successfully ignited the fire of revenge in this guy's heart.
.......
At this time, even Wang Zhengguo himself felt a little blinded, looking at the current appearance, he obviously wanted to copy a wave of smartphone routines in later generations.
Open source, support for deep customization of the operating system, only responsible for the CPU core IP design of the British ARM predecessor Acorn, the gradual rise of the Republic of power, the old power of the United States, this is all alive.
"The overall structure of the alliance is not bad at the moment, and I have a lot of confidence in it, but I don't know how to name it?"
Naming the alliance or something, this is Wang Zhengguo's favorite, this is his most skillful field.
"I've figured it out, and now it's in the power of the Alliance. The United States you represent; the United Kingdom (Britain) responsible for CPU core IP design: and the Republic (China) represented by Kaiyang, Yuheng, and Yaoguang. So we take the English initials of the three countries, and the new alliance system is codenamed: ABC-PC!"
With such a neat alliance codename, Jobs thought he couldn't come up with a better name, even if he approved the plan.
"It's completely feasible, this time let the British register in the alliance system, then we must let the British also have some blood, then we can divide the European market to the British first, the acorn company I also know, they themselves also produce computers, this time there is a chance to catch the high-speed train of the alliance, I will go to talk in person first, let them pull out the chip research and development part separately. ”
The Acorn Company is currently a small achievement in the UK, but if they can't rely on external forces, it will be difficult for them to develop greatly, which is actually very clear to the discerning people.
