Unparalleled True Technology

Chapter 189 We want to break the monopoly

After listening to Wen Ming's ideas about Apple's new products, Downers was not surprised.

For a high-tech company, especially a high-tech company in the IT industry, after gaining a firm foothold in the mobile device market, it is natural to want to develop a new product line.

It's just that Apple is taking a different route from normal companies.

"I've heard that a company that makes computers will invest in the mobile phone business after the technology is mature and has enough funds. But before that, I haven't heard of a company that makes mobile phones that will switch to the computer business."

Although Downers wasn't surprised, he didn't think Wen Ming could succeed, because based on his knowledge of the industry. Whether it is Nokia or Motorola, they have thought about using the users and funds accumulated in the mobile phone business to engage in the computer manufacturing industry, but there is no exception and no success.

Even, there is no way for this plan to pass their board resolution.

"Mobile phones and computers seem to be digital devices, but internally, they are two completely different product lines."

When Donalds talked about majors, his interest instantly increased.

"Take the mobile phone system and the computer system as an example. Because of the hardware, the nature of the software they can run is completely different. The software on the computer is often hundreds of megabytes or even a dozen gigabytes. In this case , the requirements for the computer system are very high. It not only needs to perfectly solve the coordination between various computer components, but also needs to coordinate the simultaneous operation of multiple large-scale software..."

After talking about his own understanding of computer systems, and even his previous experience in developing Microsoft's Windows system, Downers concluded: "If you think that after I join Apple, I can use my experience to copy , or develop a computer system of the same level as the windows system, I can only say, boss, I will let you down."

Downers has participated in the research and development of the windows system. When he first joined Microsoft, his department was the development department of the xp version of the windows system. After that, I also participated in the development of windows7 system.

It is because of his technical level in the development process that he can become the technical leader of the wp system.

"and."

Downers also reminded: "Microsoft has a lot of patents related to computer systems. As long as we develop computer systems, we will inevitably touch the patents owned by Microsoft. This is why, every year, many companies and even countries sue Microsoft's reason, Microsoft,

A monopoly has been formed in the industry. "

When Donalds said those words, Wen Ming kept smiling and didn't express any opinions. He didn't nod until after Donalds finished speaking.

"Yes, Microsoft has indeed monopolized the world in the computer system industry."

There is no doubt about this, but would Wen Ming care?

"But it is precisely because of their monopoly that we have to make computers, and we have to make our own computer systems."

In another world, apart from Microsoft's Windows series, the only system that is well-known by many people and has a certain market is Apple's computer system.

Since Wen Ming has launched the iPhone and iPad, how could it be possible not to launch Apple's computer system?

"I know that Microsoft has a lot of patents, and they are very shameless patents, which we absolutely cannot bypass."

Wen Ming laughed and said, "However, as long as we give Microsoft patent fees, we can use those patents. As for the cost issue, what I want to tell you is that there is a saying in China, my motherland: Wool comes from sheep. As long as We sold our computer, and of course someone would pay the bill for us."

Downers smiled helplessly, and said: "Well, you are the boss, as long as you decide to do it, I will do my best. Otherwise, I will be sorry for the salary you paid me. It's just that the development of a computer The system really takes a long time and a lot of manpower, I want to know, how many people did you assign to me?"

Donalds, who had just joined the job, hadn't met his subordinates yet and didn't know their technical level, so he accepted such a difficult task, and the pressure can be imagined.

Wen Ming shook his head and said with a smile: "You don't need a long time, you just need to help me optimize the computer system I made, and then start internal testing."

After the words fell, Wen Ming pushed the IBM laptop on his desk in front of Downers. At the same time, the power button was pressed.

At this moment, Downers was in a daze, because he hadn't understood what Wen Ming's words meant.

Until, he saw a startup screen with Apple's loge appear on the screen of the ibm laptop.

"God, is this true?"

Donalds embraced the IBM laptop with some excitement. IBM has always been the first choice for business people, and this one is the latest model this year. As a person in the industry, Downers naturally knows something about it, knowing that this computer is equipped with the latest Windows 7 system from Microsoft.

But now this boot screen has nothing to do with Microsoft.

"Is this a new platform computer system that you developed independently, or is it based on the previous computer platform system?"

During the boot process, Downers stared at the computer screen intently and asked.

Wen Ming replied: "You can completely understand that this is a brand new platform."

While speaking, the startup has ended, and the interface is completely different from the windows system, which makes Donalds' eyes shine.

There are no software icons on the background of the screen, only a row of software icons at the bottom of the screen. This very simple arrangement looks very Apple-style.

Without asking any more questions, Downers started using the system.

Wen Ming waited patiently by the side. He could independently develop this Apple ox system, and at the same time, he could also come up with all the hardware parameters and product design solutions of Apple's computers.

However, he didn't have much time to keep directing this brand new product line.

In this case, he needs Downers to continuously improve the technical level of this product line based on the foundation he provided and the planned direction.

In fact, in the hands of Wen Ming, there is no need for Apple to follow the development path experienced by Apple in another world. As long as Wen Ming lays the foundation for this new product line, and then becomes the first experiencer when there is a system update or product update, then his Apple company's development direction will not go astray.

Ten minutes later, Downes already had a good understanding of this system, because Apple's computer system was different from Microsoft's computer system in some aspects, so Downes still felt a little uncomfortable.

But this kind of unaccustomedness did not affect his optimism about this computer system.

"Boss, are you sure this is what you researched? Not a secret research team inside Apple?"

It is really surprising that a single person has developed a completely new computer system.

Wen Ming smiled and said: "It's not important, what's important is, what do you think of it?"

Downers nodded excitedly, and said, "I can only say that it will be my honor to serve it in the future."

This is already a very high compliment. Even a professional like Downers can rate this system so highly, which shows that this system is still applicable to this world.

Wen Ming said: "In this case, I need you to thoroughly understand this system before we start mass production of models, and find out all possible bugs. As for the upgrade of this system in the future, it will also be up to you to take charge. So, can I completely trust you technically?"

Downers stood up and said, "Boss, please rest assured. Except for you, I am not convinced by anyone in this world when it comes to IT technology. Of course, the failure of the WP system is also a stain in my life, but I also hope that you, the boss, can understand that it is not a failure caused by technical problems, but a failure caused by design concepts.”

Wen Ming smiled and said: "Of course I understand, so I will give you a chance to prove yourself and help me break Microsoft's monopoly on computer systems."
