The short film was played quickly, and Lin Qiangsheng was immediately surrounded by everyone, and Gosling said: "Mr. Lin, please play it again, there are a few places I haven't seen clearly!" ”
A lot of people asked him to replay it, and the content in this short video is so fascinating.
Jim Clark said directly: "Just re-record this tape a few times, it's best for us to have one disc per person!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng hurriedly said: "Everyone, there is only one tape, and it can't be rerecorded, everyone must keep it a secret when they leave this place today, don't leak the content in the short film, and I don't want this tape to be left in the outside world!" ”
Although many people have opinions, they also respect Lin Johnson's requirements, and they also know the value of the content of the short film, the content here is incomparable to the inspiration in the field of IT technology, and an idea is infinitely valuable!
Historically, at the end of 1994, Gosling attended the "Technology, Education and Design Conference" in Silicon Valley. He showed the attendees the Java capabilities in the mood to give it a try, clicked on a static molecular structure icon on a web page, sent a command to a website hundreds of miles away via the Internet, downloaded a Java applet, and started executing it on his local workstation. In a matter of seconds, a molecular image rotates in a three-dimensional animation on an otherwise static web page.
"Wow!" James Gosling heard the crowd's admiration.
Soon after, the San Jose Courier, Silicon Valley's largest newspaper, ran a front-page article "Why Sun Thinks a Hot Coffee Gets You Energized." From the moment the article appeared in the newspaper, the phone of the person in charge of Java marketing rang non-stop. Soon, Java was featured in major newspapers and magazines across the United States.
Java is famous!
By the year 2000, Java had become the most popular computer language in the world. Gosling originally designed Java to support a wide range of home appliances for the digital home. What they didn't expect was the computing mode that Java supported. In fact, it's the Internet model.
In another case, an idea created an IT hero, a legendary company!
Mark. In 1993, Anderson led a team at the National Center for Supercomputers to develop the first browser that could view images. He was just a college student at the time.
At that time, computer operation was still a relatively professional and cumbersome matter. Even sending an email requires reading instructions, which is very difficult for ordinary people to master.
As long as you enter the URL, you can access the Internet with one click, and the considerable convenience has suddenly increased the number of users to more than 10 million, and since then the Internet has changed the lifestyle of tens of millions of people. The National Center for Supercomputers in the United States is the work of Mark. Anderson erected a monument.
SGI founder Jim Clark, after seeing Anderson's design for the first time, intuitively told him that this could be another Bill Gates, and immediately sent a letter to Anderson. Invite him to work together.
At that time, Anderson was working in a small company in Silicon Valley, and he was overjoyed to see Clark's letter, so the cooperation between Silicon Valley seniors + technology prodigy officially began, and in 1994, Clark paid $4 million out of his own pocket to co-found the "Netscape" company (SAPE) with Anderson.
In an era when technological innovation is rapid and an idea can create an industry, this short film is definitely of extraordinary significance.
Engineers are often limited to the times and technology and limit their imagination, but Lin Qiangsheng puts the future in front of them at once and tells them the results. This shock of thinking caused quite a shock to those present!
At everyone's request, the short film was played several more times, and this time everyone crowded into the front row. A human wall was formed.
Everyone stared carefully at the content of the short film, some muttered something quietly, and some of the two got together to discuss softly. Jim Clark even snatched the remote control, pausing where he thought it was critical, and fast-forwarding directly where it wasn't important, and the others had no opinion on it.
They stared at the screen closely, and from time to time they exclaimed or asked questions, such as the bottom of the laptop video, those simple little icons of play, up, down, volume, and progress bar are very interesting.
Various icons on your phone. and dynamic changes, which make people exclaim "wow". It's incredible, but it's so natural. It's as if it's supposed to be that way.
Behind the human wall, Ibeka stood in the corner, although she didn't understand what was shown in the short film, but looking at the excited expressions of the audience, she also understood that the content of the short film should be extremely important. These people are all elites in the IT industry, and some of them are experts in related fields, and even they care about this short film very much, and Ibeka understands that Lin Johnson must have done something amazing!
At the same time, Ibecca also felt that the products in the film were very sci-fi, and felt that Lin Johnson could imagine these technological products, which was indeed amazing and incredible.
After playing the short film three or four times, Lin Qiangsheng said to everyone: "I know that you have a lot of questions and ideas in your hearts, and there are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand readers!"
I don't expect the technology products shown in the video to give you any ideas. After the meeting, if you have any plans, you can talk to me, and then the group will launch a series of research and development plans, welcome everyone to submit the plan! ”
Andy Baker Toson, the founder and chairman of the board of directors of SUN, James Gosling, a senior engineer, Jim Clark of SGI, and Professor John Henness, who is a fan of PS, all have some ideas, and many people present are thinking about technical solutions and feasibility, and feel that there are things in the short film that really look like that, and also give everyone the direction of development.
This time they are all the top and senior engineers of each company, Li Jing and Zhang Rujing. The Bay people were also on the scene, and there was no other station. Bay people.
In any case, in the IT field, the two sides of the strait started at the same time, and Lin Qiangsheng didn't want to have more competitors for himself. The people of the Bay are still very defensive.
People are still relatively reserved, watching the scientific and technological products on the short film should be like that, many high-level people have already made up their minds, and when they go back, they will organize a scientific research team to discuss and formulate a research and development plan.
Gosling had an idea in his head, looking at the notebook, cell phone and trip computer in the short film, he thought that in the future, the communication between devices and users would become very important, and this would need to be supported by a language, and he gradually came up with the idea of developing such a language.
Gosling caught up with Lin Qiangsheng and said, "Mr. Lin, I have an idea, do you think that human-computer interaction and Internet multimedia will become a reality in the future?" ”
Lin Qiangsheng nodded and said, "Yes, with the development of technology, computers in the future will definitely be able to do a lot of things!" ”
"I'm going to create a software development group to develop a program that will enable the communication between humans and machines in the film!" Gosling said. What do you think? ”
James Gosling now has some admiration for Lin Johnson, these researchers are limited to the times and can't see too far, but this person has seen the technology twenty years later!
Lin Qiangsheng nodded with a smile and said, "James, I support your idea, we need a cross-platform, universal, and more efficient software!" ”
Gosling nodded, and hurriedly wrote down this sentence, which he felt was also very incisive.
Lin Qiangsheng didn't know anything about technical issues, he just simply said his thoughts and ran away. As for what will be produced in the future, he is also very much looking forward to it. (To be continued.) )
