Chapter 40 Developing Software
Obviously his worries were unnecessary, and Jiang Chen's tone was still so "affeial".
At least it sounds like this in Du Yongkang's ears.
"I like the title of boss," Jiang Chen smiled, then took out his resume and got to the point, "Du Yongkang, 30 years old, male, computer major, former head of the technical department of Pacer Technology Company. Is it right?"
"Yes..." Du Yongkang was a little confused about what Jiang Chen said and answered cautiously.
"That's easy. You can develop an operating system for me. It shouldn't be difficult for you if it can be used on it, right?" Jiang Chen said straight to the point, and then threw a Huawei smartphone in his hand.
“Eh?”
"This is an order, and I hope to hear a positive answer." Jiang Chen didn't say much nonsense. After all, he spent money to buy people back not to serve them, but to ask people to work for him.
"Yes, yes." Du Yongkang nodded desperately, without any of the style of a famous company executive. Those ridiculous self-esteem had long been erased in the cruelty of the end of the world. Jiang Chen controlled his life and death, and working for Jiang Chen was his only way out.
Looking at Du Yongkang's timid look, Jiang Chen suddenly grinned, then walked up and patted him on the shoulder. He ignored the flattering expression on his face, Jiang Chen continued.
"Don't be so reserved. Do it well, and I will naturally not treat you badly."
"I understand, boss." Du Yongkang lowered his head tactfully.
Jiang Chen nodded, then continued to speak, "I will briefly talk about the requirements. If there are any difficulties, you can raise them, but you must overcome them. Do you understand?"
"yes."
"Very good," Jiang Chen was very satisfied with Du Yongkang's affirmative answer and continued, "I don't understand the operating system, I only look at the results. I want you to develop an operating system that is at least twice as efficient as this software called Android. At the same time, without changing the hardware conditions, it can be compatible with all software on Android and this IOS system to the maximum extent. If you have any questions, you will not see me a lot, and I will see the results next month."
After saying that, Jiang Chen threw another Apple phone in his hand. Both phones were naked, and they were all things that Jiang Chen had just bought for a while.
After Du Yongkang took the phone, he fiddled with his fingers on the screen for a while, and then smiled bitterly.
"What? It's difficult for you?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and said.
"No, no, it's too simple." Du Yongkang quickly waved his hand and shook his head. To be honest, he was really afraid that the boss would suddenly quit him. Such an easy job would not be able to touch even before the war!
"Oh? Tell me." Jiang Chen showed an interesting expression.
Du Yongkang held up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, showed his phone professionally, and then explained.
"First of all, this old operating system should be a product of more than 150 years ago. Whether it is the efficiency of hardware application or the headache-inducing human-computer interaction method, there are many criticisms."
"Oh? You said this Ai Crazy 5's human-computer interaction is different?" Jiang Chen laughed.
Du Yongkang secretly pondered Jiang Chen's expression and found that Jiang Chen did not feel angry because of his belittling these two operating systems. So he gradually let go of his courage and explained in depth.
"First of all, in terms of hardware application efficiency, although it seems logically strict, there are many cumbersome aspects. Simply put, it is like a statement that can be summarized as 1+1. Due to a series of technical limitations such as compiled languages and algorithms, the processor has to do some unnecessary things, first define A=1 and B=1, then calculate C=A+B, and finally get C=2, and then output C as the result... Of course, this is just an example. In short, this old processing method not only occupies memory, but also extremely delays the operation efficiency of the device."
"Oh? Then what are you going to do?" Jiang Chenra asked interested.
"This is easy to solve, and ultimately it is the limitation of the compiled language. Although the two operating systems have their own advantages and disadvantages, they cannot get rid of the framework of low-level compiled languages. If D++ is used for compilation, compatibility and other slight adjustments can be done. Moreover, the antique operation efficiency of this mobile phone will be increased by more than 3 times, and its energy consumption will also be doubled. At the same time, because the load under hardware is reduced, the hardware life will be greatly extended."
Jiang Chen gasped.
This is so amazing! The hardware operation efficiency has increased by more than three times? And it can be perfectly compatible with two software programs? These two functions alone are already crazy. Doesn’t this mean that even if you hold a ** and a silk machine, you can run happily and play games that were originally only rich gold belts. This will simply set off a technological (revolution) in the mobile game industry!
How many mobile game developers rack their brains to cut the memory of the game, optimize, and simplify (embroidery, cut) the powerful functions that cannot adapt to the public, and sacrifice gameplay in exchange for adapting to the user group. But if this operating system is released, all users' mobile phone performance will be three times higher! By then, all creativity will be completely liberated. No matter how you have fantastic ideas and designs, everyone's mobile phones can be carried. Isn't this a technological (revolution) revolution? Are iOS and Android hangings this function?
"What about human-computer interaction? My suggestion is to try to maintain the status quo. After all...well, I'm used to this simple interface after all." Jiang Chen paused and said. He didn't plan to expose his identity to this person who had not been together for a long time. Even if his life and death were controlled by him.
"Believe me, boss, my design will definitely be much more advanced than this backward human-computer interaction method." When talking about technology, the former technology executive immediately became fanatical as if he had changed his own person. "Yes, even though the way of human-computer interaction through the touchpad is still mainstream, this backward operating system has an essential gap with the operating system used on civil entertainment electronic devices today."
"What is the gap?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"AI!"
"Artificial Intelligence? Can you do it?" Jiang Chen frowned and asked.
"If it is just a primary artificial intelligence, I will definitely be able to do it within a month. After all, the relevant data are ready-made in the library's database, and I just need to do the transplant work." Du Yongkang patted his chest and promised.
"I'm very curious. Since artificial intelligence is not a difficult task, why is there not on a holographic computer?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion. Since it is really so useful, there is no reason not to use it on a holographic computer.
"Well, this is because the Artificial Intelligence Act restricts the development of artificial intelligence. If everything is left to machines, everyone will be unemployed." Du Yongkang shrugged, "The operating system of artificial intelligence was once popular for a while, but it was later replaced by neural access operating systems that are not inferior to artificial intelligence. Before the catastrophe, the use of artificial intelligence was limited to welfare facilities such as nuclear power plants and water treatment plants that are operated by government agencies."
"So that's it...will there be no risk in what elementary artificial intelligence you are talking about?" Jiang Chen asked a question he was more concerned about. If that artificial intelligence system "breeds" wildly in the current network and then evolves in the direction of malicious programs... He remembered a movie called "Public Enemy of Machinery", which depicts what kind of landscape the world dominated by artificial intelligence is.
"Boss, you're over-thinking." Du Yongkang seemed to guess Jiang Chen's concerns and sighed, "Programs are still programs. Even if they are intelligent, they cannot have feelings, (desire) and other things. In essence, they will only do things according to the programs you compiled, and their intelligence is just a situational reaction method for you to 'teach' him in advance. For example, if you punch him, he will not fight back, nor will he have any interest infringement, and you will notice subjective feelings such as hostility. Unless you 'tell him', if someone punches you, you should give him a punch. Only in this way can he react counterattack. Self-compilation is an ability that only intermediate artificial intelligence can possess. As for emotions... that is something that only advanced artificial intelligence can have, and before the war it was just staying in the conceptual stage."
Artificial intelligence is, after all, just a relatively clever program.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded with confidence.
"Okay, I'll leave this to you to do. I'll just look at the results. Just try it boldly. By the way, there is another thing you need to pay attention to, the confidentiality of this operating system must be done well! I don't want to use this phone to another person, and he will immediately crack the entire operating system and then make a similar thing."
Confidentiality is the most important task. Jiang Chen doesn't want the software he worked hard to get is played as open source in a few days. And if the D++ compilation method is exposed, he really can't explain it.
It is best to make the program as tight as an iron box, only exchange data with the outside world, and not accept any unpacking operations.
Du Yongkang was stunned, then smiled and patted his chest.
"Boss, don't worry! The programs I made are definitely not so easy to crack. I personally sealed the games of Pacers Technology. Not to mention anything else, just take "Star Wars Storm 7" launched not long ago for example. So far, no international cracking group can crack the game. As for the packets of this level of operating system, it's even more OK for me."
Think about it, too.
If someone in this world can even crack the work of this former technical director of Pacer Technology Company, who has mastered black technology for more than 150 years, it can only mean that he is a time traveler. No matter how much Jiang Chen said, he would kill him. Cough cough, of course, this is impossible.
"Yes, if you can do it, it will be a great achievement! Do it well, I guarantee you will have meat every meal!" Jiang Chen laughed and patted Du Yongkang's shoulder and said loudly.
Hearing this, Du Yongkang was naturally overjoyed. He had meat every meal, which was something he could not even dare to think about. After the sweetness, Du Yongkang naturally immediately patted his chest and then flattered Jiang Chen. He was worthy of being a manager. Not only was he technically first-class, but he also flattered him. Jiang Chen did not hate those who were smart in their work.
"Last point, you must make the logo of 'Future Ren Technology' cooler. The style that looks very high-tech at first glance, but don't be too exaggerated, you know."
"Yes! Boss!"
This guy almost didn't shout it out.
Seeing Du Yongkang's confidence-filled aura, Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction, then waved his hand and signaled that he could leave.
With joy, Du Yongkang left with two mobile phones in his arms. Of course, he didn't forget to pack up his own dishes before leaving. He didn't have to move bricks like a migrant worker and start his old career again. He has been so happy that he has not dared to fantasize about such a happy thing for many years.
However, it has been achieved today.
Thanks to Jiang Chen, Du Yongkang also showed up his momentum and made up his mind to make a fine product that shocked the boss! Although this kind of electronic product is very backward, who can do this? To meet his preferences is the best way to "climb up". He doesn't care what Jiang Chen wants to do with this thing, as long as he completes the boss's task, it is enough.
Chapter completed!
