Due to the experience of AppleIII, Li Yixuan held the first quality conference since the establishment of the company.

All departments are required to pay close attention to product quality, and no unqualified product is allowed to leave the factory. Apple is an American company, and if there is a quality problem, it is nothing, and consumers can tolerate it.

But as a Hong Kong company, people don't have such a high degree of tolerance, and Li Yixuan has no second chance.

The meeting lasted for three days, and the company's various departments reached a unified consensus that quality is life, and finally came up with a set of enterprise product quality management goals.

After the meeting, the company began a large-scale self-inspection, found more than 30 problems of various kinds, and more than 200 substandard products, and dealt with the relevant personnel, especially the person in charge.

This is not over, according to the various problems that have arisen, the company has come up with the "quality control management implementation plan planning" and "quality management implementation rules", as well as the "quality management implementation stage objectives" and so on from parts procurement to production, to sales, to after-sales, including the foundry's product monitoring and a series of implementation plans.

Next, Oranges ushered in its first major overhaul of production quality since its establishment.

For this time, Zhang Guifang also approved a special fund of 50 million Hong Kong dollars.

Li Yixuan was busy with his feet not touching the ground, he had no time to develop a new generation of computers before Yu Youcheng, so he handed over all the tasks to Yu Youcheng, and at the same time asked the engineer robot to assist him.

Under the strong will of Li Yixuan, the implementation of new production standards, the quality inspection system has also been upgraded on a large scale, and some workers have been dismissed or retrained.

It's easy to rectify your own enterprises, but it's not so easy to do those foundries, after all, they are not their own enterprises.

In the face of Li Yixuan's almost harsh product quality requirements, the Guo brothers were bitter.

And Li Yixuan only gave a ruthless answer: "If I can't do it, I'll change to a foundry." ”

The two brothers stopped talking, so they could only go back to rectify the factory and find a way to improve the quality of the products.

In this quality rectification, Li Yixuan found a lot of talents, especially many middle and low-level production management talents.

For these newly emerging talents, Li Yixuan asked the Ministry of Human Resources to record them one by one, promoted them one by one, and gave them high salaries. Give them enough platforms, the best things they are best at, give full play to their ingenuity, and contribute to the healthy development and growth of the enterprise.

For these enterprise management talents, Li Yixuan does not need to be a rhetorical strategist, this kind of person is a big handful.

For this kind of strategist, Li Yixuan himself is enough, what he needs is a talent who can implement his thoughts and will. Only this kind of talent is what a company really needs.

After some rectification, the appearance of the enterprise has been greatly improved, the product quality has been greatly improved, the contact between various departments has become very smooth, and the work enthusiasm and work efficiency of employees have been greatly improved. What usually takes two days to be approved can be solved in one minute after rectification, combined with the local area network computer management system, and it does not require the approval of the superior.

Because, Li Yixuan found that in fact, many things do not need to be approved by the higher authorities, and they can actually be completed by themselves, as long as they do a good job of supervision and record the things that are decided, there will be no problem.

Of course, not all things can be delegated, those that can be delegated to that level, are divided one by one through big data comparison, and through big data to further improve the company's administrative and production management system, so that the responsibility can be implemented to the head.

Not only the enterprise management and production departments, but also the R&D department, Li Yixuan has also carried out a major rectification.

With the cooperation of Yu Youcheng, Li Yixuan introduced the modern scientific research management and research and development system of the mature enterprise in the future, so that the entire scientific research project of the enterprise became more on the right track, the scientific research efficiency of the enterprise was greatly improved, and the waste of scientific research was greatly avoided.

As a leader in scientific research and technology, Yu Youcheng also personally participated in the rectification and reform, and at the same time was a direct beneficiary.

Under the new R&D system, the scientific research team led by Yu Youcheng completed the hardware research and development of the Oranges II16-bit computer two months ahead of schedule, and the rest is related software.

In fact, as early as after the CPU is finalized, the research and development of graphics operating system software has entered the engineering research and development stage, and the relevant pre-research and preliminary theoretical and technical demonstration, as well as the overall architecture design of the operating system have already been completed, just waiting for the finalization of the CPU.

Because the CPU is not fixed, the subsequent programming of the operating system cannot be completed.

After the basic hardware is finalized, the operating system is actually completed synchronously, but the follow-up testing and application software writing and testing also takes a lot of time, and it is expected to be on sale by the end of October this year.

……

1981 was a very important year in the history of personal computers, and it is enough to go down in history.

On August 5, 1981, the original IBM-PC was finally released at the Las Vegas Electronics Show in August this year after years of brewing by IBM.

The difference is that IBM-PC is only released, and it is not sold immediately, it may be that they themselves are not confident, and only accept reservations during the product exhibition and release, and the official sale will not be until January 1 next year, hoping to get a good luck at the beginning of the year.

Li Yixuan understands IBM's behavior very well, after all, they have not yet come out of the shadow of antitrust after they have concluded the antitrust investigation of the US Department of Justice, and their morale and confidence are inevitably a little lacking.

But even so, IBM is also a well-deserved giant in the American computer industry, after the IBM-PC press conference, it received orders from many well-known international companies, and during the entire exhibition, IBM received more than 20,000 orders, which is a shot in the arm.

Of course, Li Yixuan will not let the other party specialize in the front, on August 5th, Li Yixuan personally led the team to participate in the Lavegas Electronics Show.

This time, Li Yixuan brought Oranges' first 3.5-inch hard disk with 50MB, 100MB and 200MB, as well as a maximum capacity of 500MB.

For the first time, these hard drives used liquid bearingless motors and were exhibited to the public, which introduced a lot of sensation.

At the same time, Li Yixuan also exhibited DMG's first desktop CPU, Xeon Xeon, a new workstation processor, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the company's next Oranges II computer.

As for the Core Core processor, Li Yixuan has not been announced, and in order to cooperate with Oranges II, it is still in the secret stage for the time being.

Even so, Xeon Xeon still attracted a lot of onlookers.

A reporter squeezed through the crowd and asked Oranges staff, "What kind of processor is this?"

"It's a workstation processor. The worker replied.

"Workstation?"

"A computer that sits somewhere between a small, high-performance computer and a personal computer, we call it a workstation. Since there is no concept of a server yet, Li Yixuan instilled in his employees that the workstation is a new type of computer that is between a minicomputer and a personal computer.

When the reporter heard that this workstation was a computer similar to a personal computer, he immediately did not dare to be interested and moved to the booth of the next company.

For these well-informed journalists, personal computers can be used for business, but they are never free from the category of toys. They're interested in the CPUs of those mainframes, mid-ranges.

Even though the Xone processor looks good on paper, it can't compare to IBM's latest Power-PC.

Li Yixuan can't help but admit that IBM's Power-PC processor is indeed very powerful, and this is also IBM's first real RSIC reduced instruction set CPU.

In terms of performance alone, the latter is 20 times faster than the former (I have to admit that the performance of the Power-PC processor is indeed very perverted), and the Power-PC still uses a 1.5-micron process, while Xone uses a 2-micron process in order to take care of the general-purpose hardware of personal computers, which is still relatively backward.

In front of Power-PC, Xeon is too inconspicuous.

But that's not the case, Power-PCs are CPUs for mainframes and supercomputers, and they are expensive, with a single Power-PC processor selling for more than $10,000.

Xeon Xeon is an enterprise server and workstation CPU in the "middle range", which pays attention to multi-tasking and multi-purpose and has a high cost performance, and the price of a single processor is only $399. The two are simply CPUs that are not at the same level at all.

Although reporters are not interested, for ordinary consumers and small and medium-sized entrepreneurs, the Xeon Xeon processor is very much in line with their appetite.

The unit price of $399 CPU purchase is a bit expensive for ordinary consumers, but for many small and medium-sized enterprises, this price is very close to the people.

And on paper, the performance of this processor is not much worse than that of a minicomputer CPU, so there are many ordinary people who come to the Oranges booth to watch.

Quite a few people have also developed a lot of interest in the box of the Xeon processor.

Li Yixuan did not use Intel's navy blue packaging for the CPU, but used a red background and gold edge packaging scheme. Red is Chinese red, consistent with the color of the five-star red flag, and then given Phnom Penh, the whole box looks atmospheric and solemn and beautiful.
