Not only did Su Yuanshan know that Windows XP will be launched next year, this classic operating system, but also knew that in the second half of this year, Microsoft will also launch a system called Windows Me.

What is there to say?

Microsoft's system, the intergenerational fragrance - almost started here. Because Winme is really awkward in terms of status and compatibility, it then crushed it completely.

And Su Yuanshan also knows that Windows XP also has a 64-bit version, and it is a version specially launched to match Intel's itanium processor. In addition to the version that is adapted to Itanium processor, Windows XP also has a 64-bit version that is adapted to Amd.

Speaking of Itanium, we must mention Intel's 64-bit architecture, ia-64. This architecture was created by Intel based on HP's instigation and is completely incompatible with the 32-bit system. It is specially designed for enterprise-level commercial users. It is extremely expensive. It reflects Intel's arrogance in its bones.

But soon, the market slapped the two of them hard in the face.

The era when any technology or product can drive the market is gone forever. Not to mention Intel and HP, even giants like ibm have been taught a lesson to be obeyed.

So, amd then launched x86-64, not only hitting ia-64 and looking for teeth, but also kindly told Intel in his ears - sir, times have changed.

However, because Amd's Athlon 64 came out a little late, it did not catch up with the release of Windows XP, and there was no first-time image. In addition, "32-bit is not unusable"... so it is not well known to the world.

Therefore, in this life, Yuanxin must take the first shuttle bus of XP.

...

"Bill, I remember we talked a long time ago that the future of 64-bit systems and instruction sets is not too far away, right?"

Su Yuanshan hugged his arms, pointed to the bench on the side of the road, and sat down by the way.

Gates also sat aside and looked at him seriously: "Not to say this, first why did you say that - I mean, congratulations to Neptune and Osside on the merger."

"...Okay." Su Yuanshan rolled his eyes in his heart, thinking that this guy was really stubborn...

"That's right, I don't think that Windows 98 will be a system that is excellent enough to catch up with the pace of hardware development - in the semiconductor industry, Mr. Moore has a saying..."

Gates looked at him with an idiot-like look: "The hardware performance doubled in eighteen months."

"Hehe...yes, but what about win98? Although it is also excellent, compared to the amazing feeling brought by win95, it has not improved much, and it seems that it has not taken into account the rapid development of hardware. For example, half a month ago, Amd launched a 1g Poison Dragon processor..."

"And the win2000 launched this time is obviously biased towards enterprise users, workstations and server systems rather than entertainment users." Su Yuanshan paused and sighed: "Okay, actually I can guess that you have an operating system..."

When Su Yuanshan said this, Gates was about to open his mouth... After hearing this, he immediately closed his mouth.

Windowsme is specially prepared for individual users and home entertainment users.

"But according to your leaked version of the test, it is just a simple upgrade of Windows 98, without disruptive changes or innovations - to put it bluntly, it is still a bit conservative. If you are not a conservative person, you will realize immediately that the new operating system should be bolder and look forward a little."

"So, the system they created will be a system that brings together your wisdom and vision - will you not adapt to the fact that I flatter you so unscrupulously?"

Gates stared at Su Yuanshan for several seconds, but in the end he couldn't help it and burst into laughter.

He laughed and pointed at Su Yuanshan, and stopped for a long time: "You must have something to ask me, right? Are you short of money?"

Su Yuanshan: “…”

"Okay, I'm going to say that we used the x86-64 architecture processor streaming successfully." Su Yuanshan looked at the other party and said seriously: "Bill, we have talked about technology upgrades involving user habits and experiences must be considered for compatibility, so..."

"Wait, your processor streaming is successful? Why haven't it been released?"

"Because there is no market for the time being and we have been losing money, we don't expect it to bring profits at once, so we are just trying to produce and polishing the process - but that's not important. What's important is that our processors have extremely high adaptability."

"But you are the most important thing to really make it a pioneer who leads individual users into the 64-bit platform."

After a pause, Su Yuanshan added: "We also want to make money from corporate users, but deep down, I hope that individual users will be given priority."

After saying this, he looked at the other person with a bright look.

——He said this very cleverly.

If we look at the overall business share, Yuanxin is undoubtedly a supply chain or ecological chain enterprise. However, Yuanxin’s external publicity is exactly the opposite - Yuanxin has always said that it is a mass consumer product enterprise. This is especially true in the West.

There is mystery in the middle.

Because popularizing "high-end" computer products from military to enterprises is a "hero" behavior that is highly appreciated by both capital and the people.

Why does Apple have so many fans even if it is down and out? The fundamental reason is that it breaks the corporate monopoly of "high-tech products" and allows high-end computers to enter the public.

Similarly, why did Yuanxin's user group gradually become aware of faith? Because Yuanxin is an enterprise that insists on applying the most advanced technology in the civilian field.

This makes the people feel a natural sense of intimacy.

——In Silicon Valley, whether it is Apple, Microsoft, or the emerging giant Xinghai, they are always demonstrating their purpose of serving individual users, serving individuals and putting people first.

… (To put it more mysteriously, this is actually a concrete phenomenon of neoliberal thought)

Gates frowned and pursed his lips. After a few seconds of silence, he did not give an accurate answer.

“性能,参数,我看看?”

"good."

Three days later.

Of course, the processor department did not insist on "waiting" Microsoft launched a 64-bit processor to put it into the pot as Su Yuanshan said... Well, of course, insufficient production capacity and yield are also facts, and Su Yuanshan is not in a hurry.

After winning the x86-64 and dual-core processor, Gao Xiaodi naturally entered his dream phased goal - Yuanxin's Science and Technology Committee, and quickly set the next goal, which was to defeat Cia.

Therefore, he took this opportunity to come to the headquarters to communicate with the linux distribution team in the operating system lab.

The east side is not bright, and the west side is bright, and the open source Linux is the best partner.

...

"Old Gao, I heard that you have officially hooked up with Microsoft."

Chen Gang and Gao Xiaodi walked into the office side by side. He poured Gao Xiaodi a cup of tea and raised his chin happily.

He and Gao Xiaodi are the first group of old people to develop EDA in Yuanxin, but Gao Xiaodi is in the field of chip design, while Chen Gang is in the field of programming. Then Gao Xiaodi started to develop chips, and his identity has been rising all the way. Chen Gang stayed for many years until he reached Yos, and then he won the identity of director of a first-level independent laboratory, which was completely successful.

"Hey, what you said... Everyone knows is our original wife! Microsoft can only be considered a mistress." Gao Xiaodi ran the train all over, picked up the teacup and smelled it, and shook his head: "Didn't you get some good tea from Mr. Shan?"

"His tea pot is just like a double-blind test. Who can recognize it except for the old tea lovers who really love to drink tea?" Chen Gang smiled and said, "If you think you want to drink it, don't drink it. I'm a big red sack of 300 yuan per ounce."

"Blow you." Although Gao Xiaodi said that, he still blew the tea foam when he heard about three hundred yuan and took a sip.

"Talk the serious business." Putting down the teacup, Gao Xiaodi became serious: "After communicating with Gates this time, I have a new understanding of Microsoft."

"Oh? You said."

"It's hard for Microsoft to be defeated in the desktop operating system field."

"..." Chen Gang rolled his eyes: "Aren't you talking nonsense? Now, Microsoft accounts for more than 90% of the market share in the desktop operating system field... Others take the lead? If our winos market share, if it is placed in the entire PC market, is the kind that can be erased in statistics..."

"No, I'm not talking about this, but that Gates and President Shan colluded. The two really planned to form a new alliance for individual users, especially the home entertainment user platform." Gao Xiaodi said, "Although it's just my guess, I think I'm right!"

“……”陈刚再次翻了个白眼.

"Haha, don't want that expression." Gao Xiaodi laughed and said, "Look, the first step in our cooperation plan with Microsoft is to improve the API and optimize it for games and Internet applications... This is not for individual users, why?"

"Uh, if you say that, it's OK." Chen Gang nodded after pondering for two seconds: "After all, whether it's the Linux server distribution or winos, we are all inclined toward enterprises and commercial users."

"So, if you want to defeat Microsoft, besides the mobile product side, I think you should work hard to improve the development environment - Mr. Shan asked me to develop a follow-up promotion plan, and I thought, instead of doing it with others, it would be better to do it with you."

"We? You said winos"

"Yes!" Gao Xiaodi looked at each other with a bright look: "How is it? Our two companies are launching a new platform?"

Chen Gang was slightly stunned, then smiled bitterly: "Don't mess around, winos is a YX series platform, and the architecture is different."

"Hi! The architecture is different, can't it be changed! Even Apple can cooperate with us, why can't you?" Gao Xiaodi raised his eyebrows: "Mr. Qiao has long brought the demands. Our 32-bit architecture processor is tailor-made for Apple...Damn."

Gao Xiaodi said as he glanced outside, lowered his voice and said, "It's confidential."

"..." Chen Gang was amused and crying, but he immediately became serious: "Is it true or false?"

"Really, you're a dog."

Chen Gang frowned, thought carefully for a few seconds before staring at Su Yuanshan: "What is Mr. Shan's opinion?"

"I haven't told him yet, but according to Mr. Shan's tone, I will definitely support it, right?"

"It's hard to say." Chen Gang pondered for a few seconds and shook his head: "Winos' system market share is too small and its influence is not enough. And our laboratory is now losing money... We have worked hard to get this year's R&D fund, and now we really have no energy to turn around."

“…”

"Or why do you ask Mr. Shan if Mr. Shan supports you, then I will ask Mr. Shan for money."

Gao Xiaodi gave Chen Gang a blank look, looking as if he was disappointed: "You won't go?"

"I'm busy."

“…”

Su Yuanshan’s office.

After hearing Gao Xiaodi's thoughts, Su Yuanshan looked at the other party with interest. Gao Xiao was puzzled for the first time. He first looked down at his body, then took out his phone and turned on the front camera, and gave him a picture - yes, the yidoo concept model has already started the era of dual cameras.

After discovering that there was no dirty thing, Gao Xiaodi asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Give me a correct letter."

Su Yuanshan laughed: "No, Lao Gao, tell me, why did you think of letting winos support x86?"
