The mouse, keyboard, and games are just tricks, and Alex's goal is not just to make a game for people to play. He has a higher and more ambitious goal, he wants to make the world's first graphical interface.

The so-called graphical interface is a realistic computer interface in the way of graphical operation. Because he needs to use the mouse to click on the button pattern, the operation is very intuitive and convenient, so he made the mouse first.

The graphical user interface is simply known as guI, and the operation of computers using guI is bound to be more user-friendly and more acceptable, reducing the cognitive burden on users and further optimizing the performance of the product.

In this era, computers are still controlled by instructions, which is not intuitive and practical. Alex was convinced that the emergence of guI would change this.

Historically, guI first appeared on personal computers, and it was not until 1981 that Xerox was first developed, then stolen by Apple, and finally perfected by Microsoft. This big innovation has made Apple and Microsoft two companies reap huge benefits, and it is a big killer for Microsoft to grow into an operating system giant.

There is a reason why guI appeared on personal computers, and in the era when there were no personal computers, only computers, the people who operated computers were professionals. With the knowledge and years of professional training for them, instructions are as easy as eating and drinking.

But for ordinary people, it is impossible for them to learn computer operation instructions or something. Because of this, there is an urgent need for guI.

Alex is not worried that his guI will be snubbed, he believes that people are inert. When there is a bridge to save zài, people will no longer insist on swimming across the river instead of taking the bridge to cross the river.

This guI is based on Seymour Clayyan's operating system, it is a shell, and the core remains unchanged. People who operate computers like to use instructions, so they can choose to use the interface of instructions, and if they like to use a mouse to operate, then use guI. There is no conflict between the two, just like the dos system in the In system.

In order to run the guI system, it is necessary to be able to be computerly powerful. Alex didn't know if guI would be able to run on the "Clay I", and he was worried that if he came up with this idea, it wouldn't come to fruition. After that, he would lose the opportunity, and in order to keep it a secret, he decided to keep his mouth shut about everyone.

The "Cray I" was the first computer to actually use integrated circuits, and Alex's "first generation" was just a rudimentary prototype that did not bring out the performance of integrated circuits.

Since no computer had ever used integrated circuits on such a large scale, neither Alex nor Seymour were sure how much computing power the computer would actually reach. They just want to be as fast as possible, and for the sake of conservatism, the initial degree of operation is set at 1ooo million times per second.

At that time, this degree was already very amazing, at least 3 times faster than the "first generation". Alex argues that this is enough to run guI, but it takes up a lot of resources. If you make the computer less computational too much, it may be flashy, so that there is no need for guI.

In the mental space, the Seymour puppet is busy writing the guI module under Alex's instructions. Due to Alex's limited energy, he was only able to get the puppets to work 6 hours a day. After this time, he will feel dizzy and will experience tinnitus.

Now, Alex is slowly gaining a new understanding of his abilities. The puppet is actually a split spirit of Alex himself, but it uses a personality from someone else. In essence, the puppet is still his fantasy, as long as he has a thought, he can make the puppet disappear, or like him and worship him.

This is only possible when he intervenes, and usually, the doll manifests itself as a solitary form of behavioral awareness. As long as Alex gives instructions, the puppet will work hard in that direction on its own.

Thanks to the efforts of the Seymour puppet, a "Clay I" computer has been built in the mental space. This computer is only partially finished, not all built yet.

In the beginning, Alex also thought about creating a behemoth like a galaxy computer. However, he immediately realized that he did not understand the so-called Galactic Superstar computer at all. For things he doesn't understand, there is no way for him to manifest them in the mental space.

At the beginning, the things in the mental space were all things that he had seen and touched with his own eyes. Only in this way can it be built in the spiritual space, otherwise it would be impossible for him to make it.

"Is this about understanding the inner laws of matter, like alchemy, and then breaking down the basic matter and constructing it into objects?"

So, he relented and licensed the Seymour doll to have some manufacturing power as well. Soon, a "Clay I" computer was slowly being built.

At the same time, Alex also has a problem, that is, there are more and more things in the mental space, and there is almost no place to put them. Originally, he could have erased the superfluous things. But when I think about it, if I need it in the future, I will have to spend energy to build it, so I might as well find a place to store it first.

Today, a single computer takes up a third of the space in this spiritual hut. It seems to be more crowded inside, and there is almost no place to stay.

"Is there any way to expand the size of the space?"

Faced with such a problem, Alex was completely confused, and he had also thought about expanding the space. But now, things are not so simple.

Alex can only maintain the things in the hut, and once he leaves the hut, those virtual things will turn back into nothingness after he sleeps.

After studying for a long time, he did not find a way to solve this problem. In the end, I can only put it aside and focus on the guI.

The guI written by the Seymour puppet is based on Alex's experience in later generations, and in order to save resources, this guI is unlikely to be compared to the In series and xp series operating systems.

However, it also uses settings such as desktop, menus, icons, and windows. It can also support the replacement of four background colors, which are black, white, blue, and orange.

When the "Cray I" computer was basically fine, the one in the mental space had been built. So, Alex excitedly asked the Seymour puppet to run guI on this computer to see if it could run.

The result is that it can run, but it takes up too many resources, so that the machine is stuck one card at a time.

"It seems that the computers of this era still can't use guI!"

Alex can only accept this result in the end, and will not take out the big killer of guI for the time being, and will talk about it later. After all, this thing is too far ahead of its time, and if it leaks out and IBm learns about it, it may make the other party ready.

This small setback is not a failure for Alex. At most, it didn't achieve the expected effect, and guI can still be used in the future. By that time, it will surely surprise everyone.

Even without guI, Alex was convinced that the presence of a mouse and floppy drive would be enough. With these two things, even IBm's network of contacts is not enough to get others to abandon the "Cray I" computer and run to buy the IBm36o computer.

The "first" generation of cpT's computers has dealt a heavy blow to IBm, and many people who have bought IBm's computers are not as good as the "first" ones. So they all went back and bought another "first-generation" computer. The current computer market share, cpT has surpassed IBm's share.

IBm had just begun to show its skills in the field of computers, but it was hit hard by the "first-generation" computer created by Alex. Whether IBm can become a blue giant in the future is uncertain. As for cpT, Alex is convinced that as long as there is no problem with the general direction, it will always become one of the largest companies in the world.

Indeed, IBm's CEO Watson Jr. has been thinking about cpT all day and night, and he has been thinking about how to bring down cpT. As soon as the news of Alex's joining the "Clay I" research came out, little Watson was as anxious as an ant on a pot, unable to sleep for weeks, and even if he fell asleep, it was a nightmare.

"This problem must be solved!" Little Watson said to himself.

Alex himself doesn't think there's anything terrible about him, but when others collect his things little by little and piece them together, people feel that he is powerful. Especially little Watson, he found someone to investigate Alex, and the results made him feel that his IQ was insufficient.

Nowadays, Alex has become a problem for him, and whenever there is news about Alex in the newspaper, he will always study it carefully, trying to find some clues from it.

At this time, the Oscars gala ended, and the news came that Alex did not win the Best Director award. This disappointed many people, and there were different opinions about why Alex did not win the award.

Some people said that because Alex did not attend the Golden Globes, the Oscar committee was a little worried, afraid that he would not attend the Oscars, so the award was not given to him.

It was also said that Alex was too young, and the Oscar committee was worried that after giving him this award, Alex would not have the motivation to work hard.

Some people also say that there is no one in the world who can win the best director for his first film. Winning the Golden Globe is already considered Alex's luck, and if he can still win the Oscar, it will make others unable to live.

Alex had also heard a little about these discussions, and he laughed when he heard them. His biggest purpose in making movies is to make money, and now that he has achieved it perfectly, he will not be disappointed because he did not win an award. If he really wanted to win the award, he would have asked the people from DreamWorks to actively build momentum, where would he hide in this real room to conduct research.

Alex is very clear about what he wants, he will not expect things that are not in the original plan, only in this way can he move towards his goal step by step.
