Chapter 202 The real giant of the times

Li Feng spent the Lantern Festival at home and did not return to Yanjing until March.

Although Li Feng has been at home for such a long time, Fengrui has already started work, especially Fengrui Laboratory, which is working overtime!

When Li Feng arrived at Fengrui, he went directly to Fengrui Laboratory first. Because the Fengrui Building has not yet been completed, Li Feng could only set aside a separate area in the Ideal International Building for the laboratory to use first.

Zhou Wei's side is tight on time, has heavy tasks, and has the largest number of people, about 100 people. Fortunately, Fengrui acquired Tencent and gained a lot of talents. These people were also divided into two groups by Zhou Wei. One group is responsible for

Optimizing the server, a group of Pangu systems responsible for producing "Fengrui Cloud",

Li Feng saw various server components. Most of them were purchased directly from Dell, HP, IB and Sun manufacturers. However, they were all dismantled by Zhou Wei and others because Li Feng had relatively high requirements for Fengrui's servers.

Gao, Zhou Wei and the others were also adjusting one by one.

Li Feng was also more concerned about the establishment of Fengrui's first data center and asked Zhou Wei, who was playing with the server: "Old Zhou, how is it? Are there any difficulties?"

Zhou Wei pointed to a server that had just been set up and said to Li Feng: "It's not bad. I finally figured it out, but if I want to meet your requirements, I have to work harder."

Li Feng has very high requirements for Fengrui servers. Firstly, the parts must be modular and can be customized and assembled on a large scale. Secondly, the unit space must be able to accommodate more PUs and improve computing speed. Thirdly, it must save power, and it is best to be able to

Like an inverter air conditioner, the power consumption can be adjusted at any time.

And this is only the requirement for a single server. To form a large-scale server unit and build a large-scale data center, cooling, ventilation, electricity and other requirements must also be taken into consideration.

After all, this kind of server will definitely need to be customized on a large scale in the future. Even if a server is 10 yuan cheaper, it will save a lot of money for a data center!

The ultimate goal is to improve efficiency and save costs!

Li Feng stayed in Zhou Wei for a while, and then came to Long Xiaotian's side. Long Xiaotian's work was not light, and there were more than 50 people there.

Although Li Feng is a technical expert and is very important to technology, Li Feng knows nothing about technology, and Fengrui has never been engaged in the development of an operating system. There is even no company in China that has developed the lowest level.

operating system,

Looking at a bunch of garbled characters on the computer screen, Li Feng asked Long Xiaotian a little uneasily: "How about it, Xiaotian, can our mobile operating system be ready by the end of 2006?"

Long Xiaotian rubbed his head tiredly and said to Li Feng: "Brother Li, to be honest, we still don't know what kind of operating system you want?

Isn’t Nokia’s Symbian system good? Can’t we improve upon the Symbian system? There is no keyboard or touch pen, how can we operate it with just our hands?”

Li Feng pushed the process from the results, but no one like Li Feng has really seen or used a real smart phone, or even seen the "multi-touch screen control" technology, and Fengrui now has

There is no such hardware support,

In fact, the "multi-touch screen control" technology existed as early as 1998, and the patent was held by a small startup company called gerwrks until it was acquired by Apple in April 2005.

When Apple acquired this company, which specialized in gesture operations and gesture recognition, people were not optimistic about it, and no one could guess what Apple was buying it for.

With the official launch of the first-generation iPhone equipped with multi-touch function, everyone suddenly remembered the transaction back then. Now multi-touch has become an essential feature of a smartphone.

Although Apple is a technology giant, many of its core technologies were purchased. For example, the above Gerwrks (multi-touch screen) was acquired in 2005, Pasei (Apple A-series chips) was acquired in 2008, and it was acquired in 2010.

siri (intelligent voice), authentice (biometrics) acquired in 2012...

The reason why Steve Jobs was great was that he created a need and commercialized it on a large scale. Just like multi-touch screen technology, it has been there for many years, but no one has ever thought of using it on mobile phones, or

I've thought about it, but never implemented it.

The United States selected Edison, Ford, and Jobs as the giants of their times. They all created a need and truly changed the world.

Edison, Ford and Jobs are actually subversive figures. Edison subverted everything related to electricity, Ford subverted everything related to automation and machinery, and Jobs subverted everything related to digitalization.

.

Was the telephone invented by Edison? No, it was invented by Bell. He also did not invent the electric light, the movie, the generator set, and the phonograph. So why is it said that he played a subversive role? It is because he built on the foundations of other people's inventions.

Above, after repeated experiments, these technologies have been commercialized.

The same goes for Ford. Who invented the car? It wasn't Ford, but the Germans. But it was Ford who made cars commercially available on a large scale and laid the foundation for the modern manufacturing process, which is the assembly line.

Today's success of Jobs lies in his disruptive integration of the entire industry chain.

And these three people are not good birds. Ford is an anti-Semite, and Hitler’s anti-Semitic views came from Ford;

And Edison was extremely greedy for money, and he loved to suppress new inventive geniuses. Just look at his direct battle with Tesla over alternating current. You will know it; Jobs was also a scumbag.

Of course, there are problems with their character, but in the end they are all giants of the era who have made indelible contributions to the advancement of human science and technology.

But now because of the existence of Li Feng, it is not certain that Apple will be so successful. Moreover, how can it leave so many good things to others? Even if it cannot get them, it still needs to obtain relevant patented technologies.

Therefore, in response to Long Xiaotian's questions, Li Feng said directly: "In a while, you can follow me to a foreign country. Then I will let you experience serious multi-touch screen technology. Then you can

Clear!

However, our mobile operating system must abandon the keyboard and fully support capacitive screens. It must not be like Symbian, which is an operating system developed only for keyboards and resistive screens.

Keyboard machines are destined to disappear from the stage of history, and the development of third-party applications for our operating system must be fool-proof access."

In fact, the Symbian system can only be a semi-intelligent operating system and does not have the ability to optimize the processing of running memory.

If we use a computer analogy, Android and IS systems are closer to DWS and P systems, while Symbian system intelligence is in the DS era.

Nokia also thought about saving its own Symbian system, but because the Symbian system itself is an operating system developed from keyboard machines and resistive screens, it cannot be used on touch screens, and the screen resolution supported by Symbian is too low.

,

The most important thing is that the system is extremely complex, with 20 million lines of code alone, which is basically the same amount of code as the DWS system. This is simply unbelievable for a mobile operating system, without the use of third-party application interfaces.

Enter, who will die if you don’t die!

Li Feng encouraged Long Xiaotian and finally came to Zhang Jing's side.

Compared with Zhou Wei and Long Xiaotian, Zhang Jing's side seems much calmer. There are only ten people. Why is China's semiconductor development so slow?

In addition to the fact that the overall industrial foundation level is not in place, there are too few talents engaged in semiconductor research. If there are only two or three talents, they may be poached by large foreign companies.

Of course, Li Feng also knew about this situation and was mentally prepared.

Moreover, the task Li Feng gave Zhang Jing was to develop a mobile processor based on AR reduced instruction set (ris).

Li Feng directly patted Zhang Jing on the shoulder, said, "Do a good job, let's start with the mobile phone processor first," and left, leaving Zhang Jing "cold in the wind."

Finally, Li Feng directly called the three people over and held a short meeting together. The content of the meeting was very simple, which was to let the three people discuss the patents used in the development process, especially the necessary bottom-level patents that could not be bypassed no matter what.

The patents are all written down one by one.

Then hand it over to Li Feng, so that Li Feng can plan in advance, buy what needs to be bought, and quickly get the authorization for those that need authorization. If you really can't get it, you can also make some arrangements in advance.

Just looking at the billions of dollars that Google pays in patent fees for the Android system every day, we know that the water here is very deep, and one patent may kill someone.
