Chapter 382 Two birds with one stone

The venue is being rearranged.

Tomorrow is the display day of new products.

And Catherine died.

will appear as the host.

,,give up some trouble”

Even so, Catherine still has various things to deal with now.

The research on ternary computers made Catherine slightly disappointed. But then, she got in touch with CIA. Although it would be difficult for ordinary people to find CIA, it was quite easy for Catherine to get in touch with them.

The Soviet Union already has a finished ternary computer, so if the CIA can get the Soviet Union's thing, everything will be settled. At least the company can skip this most basic step.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as you complete this first step, it will be much easier to get things done.

Since its inception, ternary computers have had unparalleled advantages over binary computers.

Smaller size, more efficient and more stable operating system.

,, Mr. Snake and Mr. Badua will be here in an hour." Elsa looked at the time, and then reminded Catherine d

,,ah.

,, Catherine responded, she was thinking about another thing at the moment.

Regarding a report submitted by Olson on whether to enter Japan.

Olson's document stated that IBM's computers simply cannot meet the requirements of the Japanese. What they need is not a toy, but a real computer."

If the Pentium 44 computer can enter the Japanese market, it will be of great help to the company.

After all, Japan is the second largest economy in the world. If it can occupy the Japanese market, it will be a great achievement.

Japanese TV companies also relied on domestic sales in Japan to gain enough confidence to enter the U.S. market, which shows Japan's huge consumption potential.

,,But will this really work?" Catherine murmured.

Catherine really has no confidence in the Japanese market.

The architecture of msx, pc-9800, etc. was developed by the Japanese.

Take ",,pc98" as an example. PC98 neither belongs to the category of tv-game, nor does it belong to the category of comparison that was often said later. It is a special product in the development history of Japanese personal computers.

,,"In those days," because publishing software on a computer platform did not require authorization from the host manufacturer, and computers were not very popular, the sales volume would not be too large. Therefore, it was rare for game manufacturers to monopolize a certain machine to release games. In some cases, in order to

If you make enough money, you can even publish the same game on more than 5 platforms (for example, Ys 1, the pc8801sr'pc9801'x1rfm7'fm77av'msx2 version was released, not including the version released on game consoles).

These things sound messy, let alone getting them done.

Catherine is prepared for a rainy day. Naturally, they need authorization before they can go on the market, but are Japanese manufacturers likely to use their own rules? What if they get it together and boycott IBM and their own Ark Group?

That will only make things more confusing.

In fact, Japan's computer industry is already in a mess.

As IBM launched the first-generation IBM PC in Japan, and it was immediately popular, Japanese copycat companies also began to gradually increase, and various computers also appeared. Most of them were 8-bit machines with no operating system and were powered by rom-

basec is responsible for the operating system. The screen resolution is 64 colors and the computing power is low, making it difficult to use for commercial purposes.

The birth of the baslc language was something that Catherine had never thought of. In order to save costs, it was obviously impossible for the Japanese to use the phonenix system, and the C language package was already expensive. So they found a solution that is still only in prototype.

baslc language, and then perfected it according to the model imagined by the Japanese, and became something that can replace the operating system. The only thing is that the syntax is quite painful, at least that's how Catherine sees it.

Not long ago, Japan's nec decided to make an old-bit microcomputer suitable for high-end and commercial use. They went to Fairchild to customize their own CPU, and then not long ago, they had the newly completed machine made

, the name of the architecture it adopts is actually the same as in history, it is,,pc98". In order to

Able to display Japanese kana, Chinese characters and various graphics on one screen clearly and at high speed, nec also customized a special upd7220 graphics chip - although Fairchild's strength is no longer as good as Intel's, they still have many outstanding personnel.

This makes the standard screen resolution of the new phone reach 640*400*8 colors.

It was precisely because he saw the birth of this computer that Olson developed a sense of crisis.

,,This is the last chance to enter the Japanese market! Once the Japanese products develop, it will be impossible for us to enter the Japanese market."

This is what Olson insists on in the report.

Although his favorite thing is minicomputers, Olson is still meticulous when working.

,,Should we enter the Japanese market?”

Catherine is also at Spider Kitchen.

Historically, Kouken has been popular until the beginning of the century. In this strange market in Japan, PC98 has always occupied a very important market. Even with the unparalleled superiority of Microsoft's DoDows, the Japanese had to

Choose your long-term persistence.

"That's it!" Catherine's eyes narrowed. She had already thought about how to deal with the Japanese...

"What?! Develop a better version of the Stargate system?!" Olson was shocked when he received a call from Kaiser Computer and then hung up the phone immediately.

Five minutes later, a panting Olson had appeared in Catherine's office.

"Take a breath, Olson." Catherine looked a little embarrassed when she saw him panting.

"You... do you really want Microsoft to develop a version of the Stargate system?"

Catherine laughed: "Yes, not only that, but our products must be good and reflect the superiority of the Stargate system!"

"And then take advantage of the situation?" Elsa seemed to have noticed Catherine's evil intentions, and she couldn't help but interjected.

"Well, that's pretty much it. Olson, we have a lot of time. If you want to conquer the Japanese market, it won't happen overnight."

This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, not only to deal with the Japanese but also to deal with the Sisheng. She dares to guarantee that after the PC98 version of the Stargate system is released, IBM will definitely suffer a lot...

"Okay..." Olson shook his head: "With a boss like you, our life will not be lonely."

Olson actually made a rare complaint.

"By the way, where is Lyreira?" After the other party left, Catherine suddenly noticed that Lyreira seemed not to have been seen today.

"She's on leave." Elsa replied.

"Oh... why didn't Kane see it?"

"He also asked for leave, what happened yesterday," Elsa reminded Catherine.

"I really don't understand what they are doing..."

Although she complained, Catherine didn't pay too much attention to the fact that the other party might occasionally have something to do.

What she is thinking about now is how to implement this strategy of killing two birds with one stone.

"There's a problem!"

In June, my brother Kane took a leave of absence three times in total, and before the middle of July, he had already taken two more leave.

Lyrella knew her brother.

"He is a meticulous, pure workaholic!"

This is how Lyrela described her brother.

But the current situation is a bit strange.

Really weird.

"You didn't notice me...or did you do it on purpose?" As she followed Kane, Lyreira discovered that her brother, one of the elites in mib, didn't notice her. This is so unreasonable!

Lyrela felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

It was different from the nervousness when Rebecca was captured, but a feeling that something beloved was about to be taken away. It was really a strange feeling that made people feel panicked.

"Aniya? It's her again?" The last time Kane and the other party met, Lyrella felt something was wrong. But then she kept asking Kane, but there was no result.

Her brows furrowed, as if she felt something was wrong.

The two walked into a Western restaurant together, while Lyreira followed quietly.

"It's really doable..."

More than suspicious!

Lyrela's heart was almost in chaos.

The first few times, I didn't feel anything. But now, when I see it, I feel a little uncomfortable.

They are dating! And more than once!

God, there's no way Lyrella wouldn't understand what it means.

In a sense, Kane is an old-fashioned person. If it was just a date, Lairla could still regard it as a courtesy and social thing. But the situation is different now. Lairla

Ruila knew her brother best. He actually asked for leave several times in one month just for this woman, which meant that Aniya was probably his target.

"What do you need?" the waiter asked her.

"A bottle of red wine, a medium rare beef." Although he said this.

But Lyreira didn't notice what she just said at all. All her attention was focused on the two people talking and laughing not far away.

This feeling is so strange.

Lairla has always felt that she is the one who understands her brother best. Even if what he did seems to be a bit excessive, it is still for her own good. Even during that painful month, Lairla also

She could understand her brother's good intentions. But now, she couldn't understand this situation at all.

Kane is in love...

Yes, my brother is in love!

There is no doubt about this! And.

The situation seems to be "worse" than I imagined

Still in the Internet cafe today.

Alas, the computer will probably be repaired tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Apparently only the screen cable is broken, Lenovo is really in trouble.

think.

..

By the way, the name Lenovo is also good.

"cough.
