April 18th.

Less than a month after the establishment of the Starsoft Alliance, Nebulas released its first major version update, Nebulas 1.1.

The features of this version are:

Added 36 frequently used functions.

The number of bugs fixed is 172.

System fluency increased by 5%.

Ma Xiaobing, technical director of the project, said: "The upgrade of our version is equivalent to upgrading from Android 1.0 to Android 3.0, but Mr. Chen said that you should be honest, and there is no need to occupy a precious version number with a small improvement." ”

"And we will maintain this update cadence, about every month will release an upgraded version, and it is expected that by the end of the year, our Nebula system can evolve to the level of Android 9.0, with more than 95% of the functions of the Android system...... I'm not a big mouth, but our work is so fast. ”

"In addition, the good news is that the development tool 'Nebulas Studio 1.0', which is needed by the majority of programmers, has been released on the official website of Nebulas, including relevant technical documents, learning videos, Nebulas virtual machines, and SDKs, all of which can be downloaded for the development of Nebulas APP. Please rest assured that our tool is pure Z-text, and the learning cost is much lower than that of Android development, so it is guaranteed to get started within three hours, be proficient within three days, and make a complete application after one week. ”

However, the mobile phone specially equipped with the Nebula system has not yet been produced, and this will have to wait at least two months later.

If you want to do application testing, programmers can only flash the phone, flash the downloaded Nebulas 1.1 system to the mobile phone, and brush it into a test machine...... This has a certain chance of failing to flash the phone, resulting in the scrapping of the phone...... This risk and cost can only be borne by the programmers themselves.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, the pioneers are the greatest, Xinghai Technology can only send chicken soup articles, promising that all progress will be accelerated, and I hope that the pioneers who follow Xinghai Technology will not give up easily.

This attitude won the favor of the majority of programmers, and the number of downloads exceeded 500,000 on the day of the launch of Nebula Studio...... About 1 in 10 programmers are interested in Nebula application development.

After two days, the number of downloads exceeded one million, and there were even some programmers who were quick to get started and uploaded some relatively simple Nebulas APPs...... The momentum is very good.

……

Technician conference room.

Ma Xiaobing is gushing:

"Mr. Chen, the gods in the X group are really too good, after they joined the Nebula system project, the system is almost maturing at two or three times the speed."

"In the Nebula 1.1 system, there are 19 new features, 86 bugs, and more than 100 improvements to make the system smoother, which are proposed by those gods...... Although there are less than 50 gods involved in the project, the problems found and the amount of work completed are more than more than the more than 500 people in our project team. ”

"You know, they're just getting involved in the Nebula project, if they're all deeply involved......"

Ma Xiaobing shook his head, his most puzzled place was actually here: "Since our great god is so powerful, why don't they make a set of operating systems that can replace Android as soon as possible, why wait for our Nebula system to come out, and then come over to make suggestions, pointing out that it is not good here and there to change." ”

There was a little resentment in his words, cattle people have a bull temper, these Tianma soldiers are called by those gods, like a little brother, but they can't have a seizure, and it's strange that they are not depressed.

"This kind of system engineering, what is lacking is not technology, but huge funds, strong will and the appeal of all calls, including the same with domestic computer operating systems, those systems are not not able to be used normally, and the country also has the will to promote, but because there is no appeal to all calls, there is no cooperation of the majority of hardware manufacturers and users, and finally it all ended in failure."

Chen Jin shook his head, promoting the independent operating system, the will of the country is useless, not to mention individuals who have little influence and appeal.

So is Xinghai Technology okay?

The operating system on the computer side, Xinghai Technology also has a technical team doing it, can Xinghai Technology make it?

Regarding this, we have to wait for things to be made, and at present, Chen Jin does not dare to play 100% of the package tickets.

"Mr. Chen, what you said makes sense."

Ma Xiaobing nodded, the depression in his heart slowly dissipated, who made those great gods really good.

……

In addition to the Nebula System project, there is the participation of the gods of Team X.

Xinghai Technology also has two mysterious software projects, and some of the gods of Team X have joined in...... These gods specialize in different directions, some are good at operating systems, some are good at algorithms, and some are good at others, they are all-powerful, almost nothing.

Li Yicheng is an exception, he seems to really know everything, he has learned all kinds of programming, he has been a teacher in a training school for more than ten years, he can teach anything, and he has the title of "all-rounder".

However, after the establishment of Team X, in many internal competitions held, Li Yicheng ranked several or more than a dozen in each individual event.

But it ranks first overall.

He was completely blown up by God in the algorithm competition, but he won God in many unpopular fields.

It is most appropriate to describe Li Yicheng with "the best singer in the field of mathematics, and the best person in mathematics among the best singers".

Now no one said that Li Yicheng was a parallel import, but Li Yicheng felt that he was in an embarrassing situation, because there were people who blew him up in every single item, he did not have particularly outstanding talents, and after the "work assistant" came out, an all-round talent like him was a little unnecessary, he wanted to study in depth in a certain field and achieve convincing results.

So Chen Jin handed over the "Film and Television Special Effects Rendering Engine" project to Li Yicheng and others for them to help improve it.

And this software project was established earlier than "Nebula System", almost a year ago, but the technical team in charge of this project has not been gnawed down until now.

Because the core of the special effects rendering engine was brought by Chen Jin from the Dakeng base, it is powerful enough to shoot virtual reality movies, and the scene simulation degree can be more than 99.99%, rendering an infinitely close to the real world.

The scene rendering kernel used in the virtual factory is also this kernel.

Therefore, Chen Jin hopes that the technicians of Xinghai Technology can create a "Film and Television Special Effects Rendering Engine" on the basis of this core.

As a result, Chen Jin was so disappointed by the performance of the technical team, it took them nearly a year to gnaw through about 30%, and it took two years to completely eat it.

"Mr. Chen, this rendering core is too advanced! There are a lot of algorithms that we can't understand at all, please give us a little more time! The person in charge of the project said.

But Chen Jin ran out of patience, took him down, turned him into a pawn, and then let more than 50 gods in Group X participate in this project.

The gods must be different, although many advanced algorithm gods don't know much about it, but the gods know how to use it.

So it only took a month.

After the film and television special effects rendering engine operated by the gods, it has been able to exert more than 80% of the power of the rendering core.

That's enough to beat the market for special effects software such as Maya, Flame, AE, nuke, fusion, combustion, etc.

At this time, Shi Xiaotao called: "Mr. Chen, I have thought about what to shoot in the next movie, the script has been figured out, the actors have been determined, and the filming will start soon, may I ask if the special effects software you said can be sold to my Taotao studio, let our special effects artists learn it first?" ”

"So fast?"

Chen Jin was a little surprised, he said that he would take a three-month break, but he actually started work again so soon.

"I'll give you dozens of sets of beta effects software first, and let your studio's special effects artists try it out for a period of time, the cost is ...... More on that later. ”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Chen."

As a result, the beta version of the product, named "Galaxy Special Effects Rendering Engine", had the first batch of trial customers.
