Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

Text Chapter 415 National Strategy

Looking back at the 20 or 30 years of computer development in Xiaguo, and in the past 10 years of commercial computer development, is there any domestic operating system that can have an installed capacity of 100,000 units?

The answer is no!

Absolutely not.

Even in the previous years, the operating system developed by the state to support the development of technology companies has not reached this order of magnitude, or even a fraction, after being forced to popularize with the encouragement of the state.

But Changtian Technology's Firefly OS did it.

In the absence of any mandatory promotion and policy subsidies, the Firefly os independently developed by Changtian Technology has reached an installed capacity of 100,000 units in a short period of time.

How can this kind of news not be taken seriously?

The relevant departments of Xia Guo immediately sent an inquiry letter to Changtian Technology, hoping that Changtian Technology could provide a complete description of the firefly os, as well as some technical indicators that can be disclosed.

The purpose of this is actually to understand and judge whether Firefly OS can be promoted nationwide on a large scale, especially in more sensitive fields such as military, scientific research, and medical and health care.

Computer operating systems are definitely related to the country's strategic security.

A department of Xia Guo did a survey at the end of last year, and 99% of Xia State-owned enterprises and institutions were using Windows systems, and 85% of them were using pirated Windows systems.

This is definitely a ticking time bomb.

The 21st century has arrived.

It is widely recognized that the 21st century must be the century of computers and the Internet.

In the Internet age, if the computer portals of enterprises and institutions are opened wide, some sensitive data will leak out, which will be fatal to the information security of the entire country.

To this end, the relevant national departments also consulted the opinions of relevant experts from the Institute of Computer Science, Xiaguo Academy of Sciences.

Due to the cooperative relationship between Xia Guo Science and Changtian Technology, and on carbon crystal hard drives and carbon crystal memory, the Institute of Computer Science and Changtian Technology have already had relatively close cooperation.

Therefore, when replying to the opinions of the relevant state departments, the experts from the Computer Research Institute evaluated Firefly OS very seriously.

And we have drawn a lot of opinions that are worthy of reference by relevant departments:

The first point is that Firefly os is independently developed and designed by Changtian Technology. It does not imitate Windows XP or use Linux. Changtian Technology has complete independent intellectual property rights of Firefly OS. Using this system will never be in line with Western countries. Those companies are fighting each other.

The second point is that Firefly os is very practical and compatible with most applications on the market, so if it is promoted as an officially recognized domestic operating system, there is no problem at all.

The third point is that the firefly os system is a closed operating system, which is absolutely guaranteed in terms of security.

fourth point. The Firefly OS system is developed based on the Jiuzhang compiler independently developed by Changtian Technology.

The Institute of Computer Science of the Academy of Sciences of Xia Guo communicated with Changtian Technology in detail about the relevant issues of the Jiuzhang compiler.

Xia Guo Academy of Sciences can confirm that the Jiuzhang compiler still has great potential in the computer application market.

Xia Guo Academy of Sciences believes that the country should encourage more domestic software companies to use the Jiuzhang compiler, and use the Firefly OS system as a platform to create a domestic ecosystem that is suitable for our country.

The final conclusion is that Changtian Technology's Firefly OS system can be promoted as a national strategic goal to break Microsoft's monopoly.

Anyway, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences has made up its mind to equip Firefly OS on the relevant office computers of the Academy of Sciences.

As for some scientific research software, Xia Guo Academy of Sciences is also in contact with Changtian Technology to see if it can be jointly developed.

Only in this way can we break the monopoly of the West, especially the United States, on computers and the Internet, and blaze a path of our own.

After the relevant departments received such an answer from Xia Guo Academy of Sciences, they immediately dispatched a working group to Changtian Technology to conduct research.

Wang Xianghe also attached great importance to this matter, and went with Yang Fei to meet the working group of the relevant departments.

In fact, at this time, Wang Xiang's mind was still a little confused.

Although he, like Chen Xiao, is absolutely certain that Firefly OS will exceed one million installed units within a year, he did not expect that in just a few days, the installed capacity has already exceeded 100,000.

Too fast, so not very confident.

Chen Xiao has been very leisurely during this time, drinking tea in the office every day, playing games and getting off work.

It seems that this data is not surprising at all, but feels normal.

Moreover, when the research team of the relevant departments came to investigate, Chen Xiao did not go to accompany him, and directly asked Wang Xiang to accompany him.

Chen Xiao has actually been busy during this time, but he is busy making some improvements to the Jiuzhang compiler to make it a commercial version with weaker performance, which can be promoted to market applications.

Chen Xiao has been on the phone with Wu Jun, and he wants to know what the user's opinion is about Firefly OS first.

In order to seize the market, and for the hardware of Changtian Technology to get rid of Microsoft's blockade as soon as possible, so Firefly OS has very little test data from its birth to the present.

The lack of test data means that there are bound to be some difficulties that many laboratories never expected during use.

If you can do the initial stage of firefly OS just running, you can find out some problems of the system and solve them in time, which will help the growth of the system.

At present, users are very satisfied with the use of Firefly OS, and most of the suggestions are still on the application.

After all, the technicians of Changtian Technology do not have three heads and six arms, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com cannot operate 24 hours a day and night, and cannot optimize all the applications on the market and upload them to the server.

Therefore, even though the current application market has included a large number of applications on the market, there are still many niche applications used by users that cannot be used on Firefly OS.

In addition, in 2002, Xia Guo's Internet speed was quite snail.

Most of the users have broadband dial-up at home, and the traffic is limited.

It is a big user to be able to use 50G of traffic in a month.

It is unrealistic for you to ask these users to go online and download hundreds of megabytes or even several gigabytes of applications in the application market.

Chen Xiao did one thing in the dormitory, using the school's campus network to download "Slam Dunk", a total of about 8G of resources.

As a result, the daily download speed of Bit Comet was 10kb/s to 30kb/s, and Chen Xiao hung up for a semester before the download was completed.

Don't ask where Xunlei is?

Xunlei will not be born in the United States until the end of 2002, and it will not appear in the Xiaguo market until around 2003.

Therefore, it is very difficult for ordinary users to download applications from the application market of Firefly OS.

Chen Xiao only asked Wu Jun to arrange staff to go to Changtian Technology to get the CD-ROM of the commonly used application modified version application (adapted to Firefly OS), and then distribute it at major after-sales points for users to install.

When the user needs to install the application, the staff of Shenchuan will install it at a low cost, or when the user goes to the after-sales point, the staff of Shenchuan will install it for free.

Wu Jun found that the cooperation between Shenchuan and Changtian Technology was a wise choice. Chen Xiao could consider such details very well.

At the beginning of August, the installed capacity of Firefly OS reached 150,000 units. At this time, many people could not sit still.
