Chapter 48

Popular software, this name is somewhat amazing among computer enthusiasts in the 90s. {We don't write novels, we're just web text porters-

As a computer magazine, its editors have the style of the best jokers twenty years later. Cold technical articles and technology news can be turned into interesting and heartwarming things under the wonderful pen of that group of editors.

This unique magazine style can be said to have a direct impact on the trend of impurities in consumer electronics in the next decade. It can even be said that the reading taste cultivated by these mass software audience readers will even affect the entire Internet reading style in the next ten or twenty years.

And the one who created this warm and playful style was the Ah Fei in front of Hou Shida and his former editor-in-chief Walker.

"You are the Three Kingdoms Ah Fei! I know you, "The Legend of the Rangers of the Three Kingdoms" is the earliest online novel in China, right? ”

Hou Shida looked up and down in surprise, Ah Fei's size was quite large, but it didn't give people a feeling of oppression. On the contrary, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, there is a bit of a bookish atmosphere. Who would have thought that it was this person who created a precedent for the creation of online travel novels, and a "Legend of the Three Kingdoms Rangers" may be the first time travel novel released on the Internet.

"Does Mr. Hou also look at our popular software?" Ah Fei was obviously stunned, and then laughed. Yes, who has not seen popular software since the 90s?

Hou Shida also nodded and laughed, really not everyone has the opportunity to sit with their childhood idol. He has only heard Ah Fei and has not seen anyone, but now that he can sit together, he can't help but sigh at the favor of fate.

"Look, of course." Hou Shida smiled: "I have been reading it since about 98, when the editor-in-chief was still Walker, and I especially liked your magazine style." Editor-in-Chief Ah Fei wants to give me an interview? That's a real honor. ”

"Where, now the industry is very curious about the Pinyin whole sentence input method of Six Ears Software Company, and we also hope to be able to confirm the authenticity of this news."

"Let's go to the rest room inside to talk, I can't refuse the interview of popular software."

Hou Shida graciously invited Ah Fei into the rest room, and the interview with Volkswagen Software was really a bit of an inexplicable surprise. Although the computer Wen Wei Po published the news of his entrepreneurship competition, except for some media in the industry, social media did not pay much attention. Most of the media in the industry only reprinted the news of the computer Wen Wei Po, and as an academic newspaper, the style of Wen Wei Po is not so commercial.

In terms of audience alone, it can't be compared with popular software. Wen Wei Po covers high-end people in the high-end industry, while popular software is aimed at the majority of computer enthusiasts and users.

If Volkswagen Software can report on the six-ear input method, it will undoubtedly be a great help to the progress of the project.

As the editor-in-chief of Popular Software, Ah Fei came in person, and he also expressed enough attention. He quickly took out a pen and paper from his pocket, and as soon as he sat down, he asked a question.

"Mr. Hou, I think one of the questions that readers are most concerned about is,Can the six-ear input method really achieve pinyin whole sentence input under the condition that the system share is very low?"

"Of course, I already have a plan for the core of the program. At present, the progress of software development is also nearing the end, and the barely usable internal test version has a prototype, and there is absolutely no problem in implementing whole sentence input. ”

"Can you talk about how you did that? Does the six-ear input method really overcome the difficulty of information explosion? ”

"The problem of information explosion is actually not difficult to deal with, but no one has thought of it before."

……

Hou Shida and A Fei talked eloquently during the break, Volkswagen Software is not a scientific journal, and does not pursue to get to the bottom of the technology, but focuses on the impact of the launch of this input method on the current Chinese IT industry. This kind of insensitive topic makes the content of the conversation between the two much more harmonious.

Especially in Hou Shida's demonstration of the internal test version of the six-ear input method for Ah Fei,The editing work itself needs to deal with text all year round,Ah Fei only watched the demonstration once,Immediately worshiped this input method。

The threshold of input method has really stuck the neck of the domestic computer industry for too long. And Hou Shida's story is really legendary.

A student who did not graduate from his senior year suddenly thought of how to solve a problem in the industry because of a flash of inspiration. The charm of this kind of grassroots counterattack story can only be realized in the software industry. In this industry, as long as you have ideas and technical strength, it is not difficult to become penniless and worth hundreds of millions.

And if Hou Shida's six-ear input method can really be as he claims, to achieve an input method that users can easily grasp and is extremely efficient, then the value contained in this is immeasurable. Not only the value of the product itself, but also the value of its promotion to the entire IT industry is immeasurable.

Whether it is from an inspirational point of view, or from the perspective of industry development, there is no doubt that the news of the six-ear input method naturally has enough news value.

After confirming the level of the six-ear input method through field investigations, Ah Fei couldn't wait to say goodbye and leave.

As the editor-in-chief of Popular Software, Ah Fei even stayed up all night, couldn't wait to write the news draft, and finally replaced the first article he had drafted before the release of the second half of the monthly magazine. In October 2006, the 20th issue of Volkswagen Software specially produced a new cover, and featured the six-ear input method that was still under development in the form of a column review.

The attention of the six-ear input method is not only some small circles in the industry. Pinyin whole sentence input method is about to come out, coupled with Ah Fei's ability to praise the six-ear input method in his column, and even regard it as a strong contender for the future top of the magazine software rankings.

I don't know how many people's hearts have been touched by such a report.

"Yes, we are developing Pinyin whole sentence input method software. What the? Do you want to capitalize? Sorry, we have no plans to expand our shares at this time. ”

"Hey, hello...... Yes, we are very sorry, but we do not accept social investment at this time. ”

"Sorry, we don't need to invest. What the? Do you have Nongfu Spring mineral water? You just don't want it either! ”

Li Jiufeng was irritable and just wanted to hang up the phone, but Mi Tangtang hurriedly snatched the receiver from his hand, and said with a smile: "Nongfu Spring's? I'm sorry, I just answered the phone with a mentally handicapped neurosis, and the water delivery address is the old family building of the Emperor Post University, yes, yes, we have someone in the afternoon. ”

……

Rewarded by Rice Candy with a firm white eye, Li Jiufeng helplessly turned his head to look at Hou Shida, who was reading a book with the old god beside him.

"I said, brother, you have to have an idea, right? On this day, there was nothing else to do with the public phone, all of them called to ask for investment. Li Jiufeng spread his hands and said with a smile: "If it is really as generous as Qiandu or Baoshan, it will be forgotten, and one by one you will want to occupy an absolute majority of the shares." Dealing with all this speculation all day long, don't even think about doing anything serious! ”

Li Jiufeng's helpless look seemed to be saying that these tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars were just a little pocket money. Who would have thought that at this time, all the cash reserves of Liuer Software Company would have long since lost even 50,000 yuan?

But from another point of view, Li Jiufeng, who is still eating instant noodles and sleeping in the school dormitory all day at this time, is not a future millionaire reserve? Qiandu CTO Wang Menglong's request to invest 10 million yuan and occupy 60% of the shares has long been spread in the market. Li Jiufeng, the second largest shareholder with 10% of the shares of Liuer Software, is worth one million at his fingertips.

This feeling that a bright future is close at hand will inevitably have some influence on him after all. The unreality of walking and being in a trance made him wonder if he was dreaming in broad daylight. But he was reluctant to wake up from such a beautiful dream. In order to become a real millionaire as soon as possible, Li Jiufeng's work enthusiasm in the past two days can be described as unprecedentedly high.

Hou Shida shook his head with a faint smile, spread the popular software in his hand on the table, pointed to him and said, "Don't worry, soon these people who don't have strength will retreat." ”

Li Jiufeng picked up the popular software and quickly read the open article. Different from the perspective of the computer Wen Wei Po, which focuses on the technical aspects of the six-ear input method, this review written by A Fei himself, is to analyze the market prospect of the whole sentence input method in pinyin from the perspective of the market.

Not to mention anything else, in 2006 China had more than 43 million computers and 132 million Internet users -- Ah Fei boldly predicted that if the six-ear input method can reach the declared technical level, there will be no pressure to install 35 million.

In his opinion, not to mention that these hundreds of thousands of people who want to enter the game are picking up leaks, even Wang Menglong and Yu Tian are also picking up leaks!

The market price of software with 35 million installed units should be more than 35 million!

After reading this article, Li Jiufeng couldn't help but take a breath, touched his head and muttered in disbelief: "Thirty-five million? Then wouldn't I be worth 3.5 million? ”

God knows, his parents have earned a lifetime of money, and now they can come up with 3.5 million in their hands. I haven't graduated from college yet, but I've only worked for more than a month, and I have earned more in their lifetime?

Hou Shida patted him on the shoulder, and said with a serious expression: "Ninth sister, you think too much." Thirty-five million? Even if the six-ear input method is to be sold, I will never let go without more than 80 million. ”

"Eighty million!" Li Jiufeng swallowed his saliva, and now he was sure that his future worth would definitely exceed that of his parents. xh118
