Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Chapter 255: The sound of the wind

The US Computer and Semiconductor Association's statement this time is a major event.

It also officially denied the application of carbon crystal hard disk as a storage material for computer information in the computer industry.

This is a clear direction for PC manufacturers in the United States.

Carbon crystal hard drives cannot be purchased because the system installed on the computer cannot be recognized and cannot guarantee the security of your data storage.

To put it in a high-sounding way, this is to maintain the security of computer information.

But in fact, this is an improper means used by an interest group to safeguard its own interests.

The news immediately attracted the attention of the US media. After all, some time ago, the release of carbon crystal storage and the research report on carbon crystal hard drives by academic institutions such as Stanford University made the technology of carbon crystal storage get the technology industry and media in the United States. of attention.

The New York Times immediately interviewed Missili, president of the US Semiconductor Association.

"New York Times": "Mr. Missili, we have just received news that Microsoft will take technical measures for carbon crystal hard disks and will ban the use of the hard disks. What kind of considerations does the Semiconductor Association have to take such measures? Because the carbon crystal hard drive affects the profit of the member unit's mechanical hard drive."

Western news media such as The New York Times have often played the role of fake news makers in later generations, but from a neutral point of view, these media reporters sometimes ask very sharp questions.

The reporter directly asked the Semiconductor Association whether it was for profit reasons. This made Missili quite embarrassed.

But Missili is also an old river and lake, and said without changing his face: "The purpose of this is to maintain the data security of users. So far, we have not obtained any data about carbon crystal storage, and we have no way to determine the security of this technology. "

Misiri continued: "In addition, as far as we know, there is a lot of data that users will experience data loss, data tampering, etc. when using carbon crystal storage hard disks as data storage devices. Compared with mechanical hard disks, hackers also It is easier to break into the carbon crystal hard drive to obtain data.”

Missili finally emphasized: "Our purpose in doing this is for the safety of users' data."

Throughout the interview process, Missili used a lot of data, as far as we know, a series of true and false words, in order to delineate the risk of data leakage in Carbon Crystal Storage.

This method of expression is extremely imprecise, and it is even more inconsistent with the terminology of semiconductor technology.

The computer semiconductor industry is extremely rigorous, especially the semiconductor industry, and the data accuracy is even more accurate to the nanometer level.

The chairman of a semiconductor association actually used the word "supposedly" to deny it like carbon crystal storage, which is really shocking.

But this is the consistent style of the Americans, after all, others are the rule-makers.

PC companies such as Dell and Hewlett-Packard immediately notified the headquarters of Xiaguo District. From now on, the company and its subordinate agents are strictly prohibited from privately replacing the mechanical hard drives of PCs with carbon crystal hard drives and selling them to consumers.

If the dealer has such behavior in private, the dealer is responsible for any data loss and personal property damage caused to the user.

Yang Qing just breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

The measures of the American Semiconductor Association have finally landed, which should be good for Lianxiang.

After all, Lianxiang has never signed any agreement with Changtian Technology, nor can it get the right to use the carbon crystal hard drive.

But thinking that the Windows system will block all carbon crystal hard drives, which will lead to the few internationally competitive Xiaguo technology products losing a large number of markets from now on, and even disappearing in the entire computer industry, Yang Qing also felt that There is some loss.

But a businessman is a businessman, and men don't do anything good on the battlefield.

Yang Qing immediately notified the dealers at all levels and firmly prohibited the dealers from dismantling the mechanical hard drives of any series of Lianxiang PCs and replacing them with carbon crystal hard drives before selling them on their own.

In addition, Lianxiang also took this opportunity to let dealers publicize to users that carbon crystal hard drives cannot be protected by the system. Can't run etc.

Microsoft's speed is quite fast. On June 20, it immediately upgraded the patches of the system on a global scale.

Most of the users who use carbon crystal hard drives are individual users, and the computers are also installed in their own homes.

At this time, some people turned on the computer. Whether it is the installed pirated system or the user of the genuine system, as long as they are connected to the Internet, they have received a message to upgrade the system patch.

Microsoft's awesomeness is shown.

This upgrade message does not require the user to click automatically, and the upgrade will be done online.

And the whole process cannot be interrupted, the user has no way to click to exit, and there is no way to run in the background, even after shutdown and restart, it will be automatically upgraded.

From this point of view, in order to meet the relevant measures of the Computer Association, Microsoft is spending a lot of effort to study the relevant technical information of carbon crystal storage.

Changtian Technology has known about the relevant measures of the US Semiconductor Association a few days ago, but because it does not know what specific actions Microsoft will take, Chen Xiao has no corresponding measures for the time being.

At this time, the company's technical staff found that the WIN98 system was automatically updated, and after the automatic update, the computer showed that the hard disk could not be recognized, so it could not enter the boot interface.

The commercial network speed of Changtian Technology is much faster than that of users, so the user did not upgrade successfully. Changtian Technology has already known the consequences after the upgrade.

The technician quickly reported the situation to Chen Xiao.

"Mr. Chen, the system is automatically upgraded by Microsoft. After the upgrade, the system cannot recognize the carbon crystal hard drive."

"Our computers with carbon crystal hard drives have no way to enter the desktop, but the computers with mechanical hard drives in the system class have no problem."

"Now our programming engineers are working on it."

Changtian Technology has an office space in an office building.

Except for the employees at the later stage of the headquarters, most of them are technicians of Yuedong Internet.

They understand computer and programming technology. After completing the daily work of Yuedong Internet, they will also undertake work such as network security and maintenance of Changtian Technology.

The technicians have all been mobilized to immediately analyze the cause of the failure.

Chen Xiao has been in the company for the past two days. Instead of going to school, he is just waiting for Microsoft's final move.

I didn't expect Microsoft to be so fast. Yesterday, the US Semiconductor Association announced the news, and today all systems have been patched.

Chen Xiao got up and immediately went to the office of the technical department.

Just then his cell phone rang.

It was Wu Jun who called.

Wu Jun felt that he was too careless. He thought that the United States was so far away from Xia, and the products of Shenchuan were not sold in the mainland of the United States. Therefore, some of the so-called statements and announcements issued by the US Semiconductor Association had nothing to do with the sales of Shenchuan in Xia. any impact.

But I didn't expect that several computers in the Shenchuan headquarters just now had an automatic upgrade event, and the computer could not enter the desktop after the upgrade, and the displayed content could not be queried to the hard disk.

Shenchuan's technicians immediately launched an investigation and received after-sales hotlines from at least 10 users.

The same is true for the problems reported by the users of these magic ships~www.readwn.com~ Wu Jun thought of the statement issued by the US Semiconductor Association at this time, and then he knew that the US side was really coming, and this time he was really anxious.

If all computers using carbon crystal hard disks cannot enter the desktop after upgrading the system, what advantages do carbon crystal hard drives have?

On the one hand, Wu Jun asked the technicians to find a way as soon as possible to see if this upgrade of the Windows system could be avoided, and on the other hand, it was convenient to call Chen Xiao.

Wu Jun: "Did the Shenchuan not use the genuine Windows system, which led to Microsoft's retaliation?"

Wu Jun just has some self-blame. If it wasn't for encouraging users to use pirated systems in order to save costs, Microsoft would not even know the brand of Shenchuan, and it would be impossible to ban the carbon crystal hard drives by upgrading the system.

However, Chen Xiao thinks that this is Wu Jun's overthinking. After all, no matter whether Shenchuan uses a pirated system or not, Microsoft will also use this method to ban carbon crystal hard drives in order to cooperate with the US Semiconductor Association.

Immediately afterwards, Wu Jun said what he wanted to ask most: "What should I do?"
