Chapter 47 "Skynet" Project

It’s not like no one has ever done such an idea. With a global communication platform and fast information transmission, Wei Lai named his plan the “Skynet” plan. In the idea of ​​the “Skynet” plan, the name of the platform is called "Skynet".

"Skynet" is the bottom layer of a new all-application platform. It consists of a new operating system composed of different instruction set architectures and a new compiler. This is a complete ecological environment. Wei Lai's plan relies on the powerful new high-tech High-performance superconducting chips build such a complete software ecosystem.

The construction of the entire ecosystem is inseparable from a large number of applications, and the realization of various functions enables developers and ordinary users to continuously create value.From hardware to software, a complete ecological closed loop is formed.

The implementation of this plan benefits from three conditions: maturity of the industry, different breakthroughs and breakthroughs in superconducting technology.

The mature industrial chain has been supplemented after technology exchange. What awaits the entire Huaxia semiconductor industry is transformation and rapid development. Under different platforms, taking advantage of the ultra-high market share and user volume of drones, it gradually expands to In other markets, strong computing power is the fundamental element to support the operation of the system.

Chips are the crystallization of human wisdom and the shining jewel in the crown of the semiconductor industry. The first step Wei Lai has to do is to shorten the gap with the Western world in the direction of chip manufacturing. Otherwise, there is no way to build a world-leading "Skynet" platform.

China's chip design and instruction set construction are not weaker than others. The reason why no one does such a thing is because of market reasons. This is a thankless choice and a compatibility issue.

Although ARM and X86 are two different architectures, they are compatible in quite a lot of functions. This is a compromise faced by the market. If there is no huge performance difference, people will give priority to the system they are familiar with. for use.

At the beginning, there were many operating systems. The choices that can win the end users are Android and Apple on the mobile phone platform. The PC market is dominated by Windows because of better compatibility and more software markets.Siled systems, without extensive software support, no one will pay for you.

This is also the reason why the upgrading of chips has chosen the reconstruction of the architecture. After one generation, the chip industry has been pursuing precision.With technology and machines, the precision limitations of chips are no longer the shackles restricting China's semiconductor industry or the new superconducting industry.

Wei Lai does not intend to compete head-on with the Western world in the mobile phone and PC markets. In front of the huge market users, a massive application market is not established in a day. The application market created with countless developers over a long period of time has become a new The biggest constraint on the popularization and promotion of operating systems is cultivating one's own complete application ecosystem, which is the second step of the "Skynet" plan.

With a super high market share of drones, Wei Lai chose the platform of his own drone operating system. In the future, the drone market will be even larger. Through the popularization and application market of drone operating systems, Cultivation, slowly invade the mobile phone and PC market, to achieve the purpose of promoting the operating system.

The most critical and core part of the plan is still the breakthrough of superconducting technology. The release of technology does not mean mature applications. Wei Lai predicts that he will still have an absolute advantage at the application level, with at least 20 years of superconducting technology. Take the lead, use the advantages of performance crushing to seize existing market shares, rely on performance crushing to train developers of your own systems, and build the entire operating system.

The entire plan is unremarkable. The only thing that stands out is the leadership in hardware preparation, which is also the most basic leadership.This also gave Wei Lai confidence in the implementation of the plan.Without a crushing level of leadership, the user’s choice will still be a familiar operating platform.

The importance of a common operating platform is self-evident, which is the foundation of the entire company's future.From smart homes, digital life, mobile phones, PCs, drones, to all kinds of home appliances, a unified operating system and platform can greatly enhance user stickiness, and it is also a way to build a virtual world to connect the real world The most important part is that only when the "Skynet" platform is fully deployed, the company will be invincible and more plans can be implemented.

This is why Wei Lai intends to start from the chip and redesign the instruction set architecture, a brand new compiler, a brand new operating system, this will be a battle for developers, and the opponents they face are not only old western players, but also Domestic start-ups.

Weiguo, a veteran top company that can break through the siege in the market, and Huami, a domestic company, are doing the same thing around their own products. The banners of smart life and smart home are also popping up frequently.This is the only way from the Internet to the Internet of Things. Any breakthrough and application of cutting-edge technology will bring huge benefits and improvements to the application scenarios of the Internet of Everything.

To put it in a small way, Wei Lai also wants to enter the field of the Internet of Everything. In a big way, every company is carrying out its own "Skynet" plan. There is only one winner, and there is only one winner. The operating platform chosen by more than 90% of market users means that countless companies behind them will fall, and they will eventually compromise and join the platform at the top of the food chain.

Wei Lai is not timid in the face of powerful opponents, who is not yet the overlord in a certain field.Although the behind-the-scenes technology company has been established for a short time, it has completely emerged in the field of robotics technology. In the field of aerial photography and drones, it has suppressed Dayu Technology. More markets are firmly controlled by its own machines. Take control.

Wei Lai firmly believes that the application of drones is not just aerial photography. He positions the drones produced by the company as life assistants. With the support of super computing power and big data, his company will usher in a new era. peak.Confidence is self-confidence. Before everything happens, the preparatory work cannot be stopped. The complete realization of the "Skynet" plan is also an ultra-long-term large-scale plan. The research and development work only ensures a relative lead. Developer scramble.

Wei Lai never thought that he could completely change the entire operating system ecosystem with his own power. This is the result of long-term joint efforts of many people. More talents are Wei Lai's most fundamental desire.While superconducting chips are being prepared, talent is a key target that Wei Lai needs to vigorously cultivate, explore and take care of.

The development of the chip is still in preparation, but the fatal blow has already arrived. Under the pressure of superconducting technology, Microfruit Company took the lead in taking action, and the researchers were caught in a severe research and development situation where every second counts.
