"I think that the current further development and maintenance of Unix systems is still led by the National Computer Association, with major companies and universities participating in development and maintenance.
In this way, the Unix system can become more complete and its life cycle will be longer.
Major companies and universities regularly add new general functions to Unix or delete old functions. As for what to add or delete, we give full play to democracy and the minority obeys the majority..."
Hearing Zhang Zhonghua say this, everyone present had a smile on their faces.
"As for the C language, I still have a lot of ideas in advance. I will submit them to everyone for viewing before updating the version. If there are deficiencies, I will continue to modify them.
Moreover, I also established YH Company at Stanford University in San Francisco, so communication is very convenient."
I set up a software company in the Ugly Country. It’s okay if you take away the Unix system. This is a benefit I give you, but it shouldn’t be too ugly. Give me the C language.
"I think Mr. Zhang Zhonghua's suggestion is very good. As we all know, Stanford University is very strong, especially in computers..."
As soon as Zhang Zhonghua finished speaking, the person in charge of Stanford University jumped out. After all, Stanford is the well-deserved number one in computer science.
Soon, this meeting, called a press conference, but actually a cake-sharing meeting, came to an end.
Representatives from all parties participating in the meeting were also satisfied and had met their requirements.
Zhang Zhonghua's goal has also been accomplished. In the future, the ix system will bring him huge benefits. The textbooks alone can bring in hundreds of millions in revenue.
Just like the UK, you can earn a lot of money just by selling English textbooks.
After finishing the press conference, Zhang Zhonghua stayed in the Stanford Industrial Park for a few more days, then left San Francisco and returned to his villa in New York.
During this time in San Francisco, Zhang Zhonghua was extremely busy. It felt a bit like the time when CFC was first established. He did everything by himself and was so busy that he wanted to compete with others.
After resting in his villa for a long time, Zhang Zhonghua looked at the time and felt that it was almost time, so he came to the villa where the Lou family lived next door.
"Uncle Ahua, you are here, I want to eat prawns and cola chicken wings."
When Lou Xiaobao came back from school and saw Zhang Zhonghua at home, he ran directly to Zhang Zhonghua and started ordering.
"Xiaobao, have you missed your uncle during this time?"
Zhang Zhonghua pinched Lou Xiaobao's face and asked with a smile.
"Little treasure misses Uncle Ah Hua. He thinks about it...um...eight hundred times every day!"
Lou Xiaobao tilted his head and thought for a moment before saying.
"Hahahaha, uncle will cook whatever little treasure wants to eat today!"
Zhang Zhonghua was so cute by Lou Xiaobao that he picked up Lou Xiaobao, kissed him, and then handed him over to the nanny.
"Ahua, how was your press conference in San Francisco?"
When Lou Xiaoe saw Zhang Zhonghua, she asked him about the press conference.
"It's not bad. IBM made the press conference quite grand. There should be no problem in promoting the ix system. All the famous computer companies in the country and well-known newspapers from all over the world attended the event..."
Zhang Zhonghua briefly introduced the press conference, focusing on the companies and media he went to.
"It is indeed quite grand, but the National Computer Association and these companies and universities are too hateful. This is completely naked robbery and looks too ugly."
Lou Xiao'e said angrily after hearing that the Unix system developed by Zhang Zhonghua was divided up.
"It's nothing. If you want others to contribute, you have to give them something in return. And so many companies and universities can promote the Unix system together. This is called gains and losses.
And we don’t have the ability to eat such a big cake and give up the Unix system and let them support the promotion of C language. It’s not bad. C language is the foundation.”
I think back then, IBM gave Dr. Wang An a hard time. In the end, Dr. Wang An had no choice but to endure it silently. He secretly caused trouble for IBM just like he did when he supported his patent lawyer last time. Anyway, he didn't lose anything.
"Moreover, two books on Unix system and C language are about to be published. Textbooks here in Chou country are really expensive, and even those with slightly poorer family conditions will be heavily in debt after finishing college.
Including the textbooks in the previous database, these three textbooks can sell at least one million copies every year, and the annual income is at least 10 to 20 million US dollars, and the sales revenue will be considerable for decades.
Moreover, the textbooks will be updated every few years, so you don’t have to worry even if others publish textbooks. After all, I am the founder, who can be more authoritative than me?”
Zhang Zhonghua smiled and said to Lou Xiao'e.
He calculated in his mind that the royalties on textbooks were really terrifying. Of course, this was only in developed countries such as Europe, America, and Japan. There was no need to think about it in Southeast Asia. The universities there simply couldn't afford it.
However, the future textbooks of each university must be edited by themselves. It is impossible to sell books for decades. However, Zhang Zhonghua still has to collect the licensing fee.
Of course, by the time each university publishes its own textbooks in a few years, Zhang Zhonghua will probably no longer care about the tens of millions of dollars a year.
"Ahua is back? What were you talking about?"
Lou Zhenhua, who soon went to have a drink with an old friend who had immigrated to Chou Country, also came back. When he saw the two people chatting, he asked.
Lou Zhenhua didn't feel angry when he heard Zhang Zhonghua talk about today's events. On the one hand, he had already understood the tyranny of Chou Country, and on the other hand, it was the same no matter where he was.

"As the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. What's more, you are the dragon. It is a wise move to give up some interests to ensure greater interests.
During this period, I found that China’s stock market was really hot, Buffett’s stock surged, and the Dow Jones Index also doubled.”
Zhang Zhonghua rolled his eyes, who is Buffett? The stock god! Of course the stock god is awesome. When Berkshire Hathaway was first listed, its share price was US$7, and in the future it will be US$320,000, with a market value of more than US$700 billion.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Buffett can become the richest man in the world just by stock trading. He is among the top ten people in Forbes all year round. He is a truly super godman.
However, the future Buffett will definitely not be as brilliant as his previous life, because Zhang Zhonghua wants to cut off his Hu.
In the future, CFC Catering Company will definitely become the major shareholder of Coca-Cola Company. Zhang Zhonghua has never thought about becoming the major shareholder of a core technology company, but becoming the major shareholder of a non-core technology company, although it makes more money, is not a big problem.
"Most of the shares of Buffett's company are in the hands of Buffett and his partners. There are very few shares circulating in the market, and the stock price is somewhat artificially high. You can buy some of his company's shares to play with and make some money."
Zhang Zhonghua estimates that no more than 15% of Berkshire Hathaway's shares are on the market, and it may even be less than 10% in the future.
As long as Zhang Zhonghua spends money to buy Buffett's shares on the market, then Berkshire Hathaway will probably be out of business.
If a listed company has no shares in circulation, it is still a listed company and has no market value to speak of.
After all, not every company is like IBM, which has been listed for more than 50 years and is still issuing additional shares and splitting shares. Such high-quality stocks are hard to come by, and you can make money if you buy them.
Buffett's stock price may increase more than 10,000 times in the future.
After the three of them chatted in the living room for a while, Zhang Zhonghua went to the kitchen to cook alone. The Boston lobsters he bought before were not finished yet, so he had to destroy them as soon as possible.
In the evening, everyone had a sumptuous dinner, and at the same time, Chou Country's TV news also broadcast today's grand press conference.
Zhang Zhonghua, the UNIX developer, only appeared for less than ten seconds, which made everyone furious. It was so shameless.
And Zhang Zhonghua was also a little speechless!!!
But he doesn't care. Even if he is not allowed to appear on TV, it will not affect the fact that he is the founder of the Unix system and the C language in future textbooks. Taking away the Unix system will not affect his earning dollars at all.
After staying in New York for a few days, Zhang Zhonghua took a plane to leave Chou Country again. After a long journey, Zhang Zhonghua came to Dongjin, Japan again. Now the preparations for Jade Emperor Bank in Japan should be almost completed.
Wang Puweishi, the chief executive of Jade Emperor Bank, was very excited to see Zhang Zhonghua. Now Yuhuang Bank is located in all major cities in Japan, with 120 branches. Its comprehensive strength can also be ranked among the top ten in Japan.
Puweishi sighed, it was really easy to enjoy the shade with the big tree at his back.
Moreover, the branches of Jade Emperor Bank are backed by Carrefour supermarkets. Each supermarket has a population of 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands. Even if one-tenth of these people become Jade Emperor Bank customers for convenience or welfare, it will still make them
Jade Emperor Bank has over one million users.
At the same time, the number of employees of Yuhuang Group in Japan exceeds 100,000, and the bank directly has nearly 100,000 high-quality customers. Coupled with the back-and-forth financial transactions of its companies and partners, Yuhuang Bank has reached the peak of its direct debut.
"Boss, now our bank's dedicated line has been laid in Japan, all the necessary equipment is in place, and all the company's employee information has been imported into the database.
The bank's computers have all been installed with the Unix system and new banking software developed by you. Two million bank cards have been ordered and account information is being entered for the group's employees."
Pulvais reported on the work progress of Jade Emperor Bank. Now everything is ready and just waiting to open. Jade Emperor Bank has become a second-rate bank since its debut in Japan. Don't think that second-rate bank is not good. Second-rate bank is already very powerful.
Zhang Zhonghua is very satisfied. Having more talents saves trouble. Unlike before, he had to do it himself. Now he only needs to speak and give orders.
Jade Emperor Bank has invested more than 50 million U.S. dollars in Japan, spending more than 30 million U.S. dollars on purchasing equipment, and more than 15 million U.S. dollars on submarine cable and land construction. This investment has also exceeded that of all banks except Hong Kong, HSBC and Standard Chartered.
The small cards in Zhang Zhonghua's hands can feel the texture on his fingertips.
In 1950, U.S. businessman Frank McNamara and his business partners founded the Diners Club in New York and issued the first credit card made of plastic in the century, the Diners Club Card.
In 1952, Franklin National Bank in California first entered the field of issuing credit cards as a financial institution, thus kicking off the process of issuing credit cards by banks.
“How much does one of our customized bank cards cost?”
Zhang Zhonghua asked curiously.
"Because our purchase volume is relatively large, it is a bit cheaper. A bank card costs 1 US dollar."
Purvais complained that it was too expensive. This broken card cost one dollar.
Now Jade Emperor Bank can only be used as an ordinary bank. There is no way the central bank will need to reorganize it in the future.
Zhang Zhonghua took the bank card handed over by Puwei Shi. Since it was used in Japan, the front of the bank card had a picture of Mount Fuji, the sacred mountain in Japan, and the logo of Jade Emperor Bank. The back of the card showed the bank account information and the scope of use.
The cost of this thing is only a few cents a piece. It is completely cheated. It is also super troublesome to use. You have to enter the bank card number on the computer to get the bank card information from the server. But there is no way. You have to endure being cheated.
Magnetic stripe bank cards have not been invented yet. After all, as long as they are related to storage, they are expensive and painful. As for chip cards, they can only be a dream.
Not to mention that current technology cannot achieve it, but even if computing technology can achieve it, ordinary savers will not be willing to use a chip.
As for ATMs, they are a joke now. They have only been around for a few years and are basically useless.
The development history of ATM machines is a history of being disliked by all kinds of people.
Banks love ATM machines so much that they can only make them lose money.
The wider the reach of this bank's extended services, the more labor and capital costs will rise.
ATM machines, banks' expensive purchase fees and depreciation aside, the daily operating costs include communication fees, electricity fees, installation and decoration fees, branch rental fees and the most important maintenance costs - every time a machine is installed, a cashier must be hired
Cars require dedicated personnel to fill in notes and collect cash, not to mention that system maintenance and hardware repairs also require dedicated personnel.
In 1978, an abnormal winter monsoon blizzard swept across New York, causing an average snow depth of 40 centimeters across the city, causing traffic chaos and shops closing.
When bank services were also paralyzed due to the freeze, long queues formed in front of Citibank's ATMs.
Citibank seized the marketing opportunity and advertised: Citibank never sleeps. Convenience and efficiency finally defeated people's resistance to machines, and Citibank became the biggest winner with the help of the right time and place. After the snowstorm, Citibank's ATM usage increased by 20%, and in a short time
In just a few years, the bank's deposit holdings in New York doubled.
Forget it, it's still early for magnetic cards and ATM machines, so we won't get involved with them, and those things are also decorations invented by some experts. The Jade Emperor Group can't do everything, otherwise it will be hated.
We still have to keep a low profile and not be too dazzling. Yellow people still can’t dance too happily, Zhang Zhonghua comforted himself.
