Technological Hegemony

Luo Jia smiled, and said in front of everyone: "I heard everyone's words, the operating system is of course very important, although the server is usually managed with UNIX, but Microsoft has indeed occupied each of our computers. "

"If we can compete with Microsoft and pull them down, it will of course be a very good result. Individual users and server users all over the world use our star system. It is indeed an amazing thing for us to control the lifeblood of the world's computers. When people are happy, even in their dreams at night, they will laugh."

The conversation suddenly changed, and Luo Jia continued: "The operating system is very important, but it is not the most urgent problem we need to solve at present, because what we want is to advance to the top level of technology and the upstream base of technology."

"In the field of high-end servers, we can use UNIX systems. WINDOWS is not the first choice for advanced business users, and UNIX is open source. Simply put, we are not afraid of Microsoft. Although it is powerful, it has limited control over us. .”

Everyone immediately understood what Luo Jia meant, and he still wanted to go upstream and make some more basic software.

For example, industrial software is the foundation of industry. If you want to make a pair of shoes, you need to use industrial software to design the shoes first, do road running simulation, wear-resistant simulation, waterproof simulation and so on.

Therefore, when the industrial software was completed, the impact was really too great, completely changing the course of history. Since then, millions of factories across the country have used domestic basic industrial software and participated in international competition. I have more confidence.

Now the situation has completely reversed, and Europe and the United States are afraid of being stuck by Xingchen Technology, and millions of small and medium-sized enterprises in Europe and the United States are all in the hands of Luo Jia.

In terms of influence, Xingchen Industrial Software spent dozens of times the amount of Xingchen Search, but its influence is only a fraction of Xingchen Search.

But the charm of basic technology lies precisely in this.

You like to watch movies, but you may not understand the camera motion control system of Light \u0026 Magic, the motion capture system iMoCap, or their light field geometry simplified rendering system, imagebasedrendering.

The people who eat melons always care about celebrity gossip, gossip, and strange talks about health preservation, but the tough guys are not the people who eat melons. What they care about is always the most professional and deepest existence that is unknown to the people who eat melons.

"Let's make a database!" Someone yelled, "Oracle, Microsoft, and IBM dominate 90% of the database software in the world! Our country is almost blank in this field!"

Everyone agreed, and the employees who were not in the meeting room also posted barrage to express their support.

Luo Jia nodded lightly. The database is indeed a problem. The players in this field are very unified, all of them are North American players. All competitors outside of North America, including Europe, China, Neon, and South Korea. To 5% market share.

The databases used by all Huaxia banks are either Sybase, IBM, or Oracle.

You know, the banking industry is the industry with the highest data security requirements. Even they have to rely on the technology and software of North American companies. Do you think this thing is scary?

Up to now, everyone's enthusiasm has been mobilized, and Luo Jia no longer plays tricks. He said in a deep voice: "The problem with the database is indeed very serious, but the software we will develop next is more basic than the database."

Everyone was stunned, software more basic than a database?

Luo Jia paused, "Yes, even database software needs to be written, and writing requires programming software."

After hearing Luo Jia's words, everyone suddenly realized.

"Yes, nothing is more fundamental than programming software!"

"Create a Chinese programming software and challenge North America's program development hegemony!"

"good idea,

If it is written in Chinese, elementary school students can easily do it with a little study, which is conducive to the decentralization and popularization of knowledge! "

"What you said is not the most important thing. The important thing is that we speak Chinese!"

Luo Jia made a start, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.

The people present are all world-class program development engineers. English programming is not difficult for them, but the straight men of steel think of the next generation, why can’t a Chinese programming software be used in this world?

Luo Jia scratched his head and said with a smile: "Actually, both Chinese programming and English programming are false propositions. Because of the existence of a compiler, Chinese and English keywords can be converted to each other."

Luo Jia reached out and pulled the whiteboard over, writing quickly on it.

English programming language:

if(i\u0026gt;0)

cout\u0026lt;\u0026lt;x.answer

Chinese programming language:

if (variable 1 \u0026gt; 0)

Output \u0026lt;\u0026lt; Variable 2. Answer

Pointing to what he wrote, Luo Jia said, "Look, these are two different programming methods in Chinese and English. There is no difference except for the key words."

"For programming, the most important thing is not the language, but the logical thinking and data structure. The binary tree in English looks like this, and the binary tree in Chinese still looks like this. The object-oriented idea in English is this idea. Object-oriented is still the idea.”

"Just programming in Chinese is like when you play CS and change all the menus and buttons to Chinese. Even so, a master is still a master, and a rookie will still be shot in the head."

Everyone was embarrassed when they heard Luo Jia's words.

"Mr. Luo, according to what you said, wouldn't it be pointless to engage in Chinese programming software?"

"It doesn't mean much, it's just to let people who can't understand the code before, can understand it in the future, but the rookie who can't think logically is still a rookie. Mr. Luo has just said very clearly that the level of programming is not determined by the language. , but logic."

After listening to everyone's confused discussions, Luo Jia suddenly burst out laughing, and at the same time, his eyes shone brightly.

Looking around the audience, Luo Jia said in an unusually calm voice: "The real embarrassment of Chinese programming is not a language problem. The language can be compiled, but you must know that all the hardware and computer languages ​​we use now, including 01 Machine language, assembly language, including hardware design and factory-built definitions, are all dominated by the West.”

"When you buy a CPU produced by Intel, the instruction set that comes with this CPU is naturally in English. At this time, what's the point of giving commands to Intel's CPU in Chinese?"

"If we want to change, it is not a matter of changing a programming language, but to subvert all the rules of the game! Starting from the bottom of the machine, it is up to us to define and use our own language."

Luo Jia saw that everyone was stunned. The entire meeting room and the entire software center became completely silent.

We all know that Boss Luo has great ambitions, but he didn't expect his ambitions to be so big!

What programming language, Luo Jia intends to rewrite it directly from the hardware level!

Luo Jia said with a smile, “Originally, we didn’t have this kind of opportunity, because we don’t manufacture CPUs, nor do we manufacture north-south bridge chips, graphics processing chips, and AI algorithm chips. The shareholders of companies in the Bay Bay Province are still Wall Street financial giants."

"But have you ever thought that the hardware department next door has already started to engage in semiconductors and entered the bottom of the IT industry! This is an opportunity. What we have to do is to redefine machine language, then redefine assembly language, and finally Introducing Chinese programming tools!"

"Chinese programming software is really not important, because it is the last step in this industry chain. When the front end is dominated by the West, just developing a Chinese programming tool cannot solve any problems."

"So, we have to move the knife from a more basic place and open up the entire industrial chain!"
