Global Monopoly of Technology

French Riviera laboratory.

"... Our goal is to promote Azure-C as the main programming language for writing mobile applications in the future. It is very practical. The program written by Azure-C is basically as big as its original code, and it is fully compatible with the standard C language. . "

In an indoor lobby of the Cote d'Azur laboratory, more than 600 engineers gathered together, listening to Luo Sheng's narration. The Azure-C language has been developed for three months. It will host the AoS operating system and mobile phone applications. write.

"For all programming languages, the ultimate purpose is twofold: one is to improve the efficiency of hardware operation, and the other is to improve the efficiency of programmer development." Luo Sheng looked at hundreds of engineers and said, "Unfortunately, the two cannot be both. You can only choose the same. In terms of improving the efficiency of hardware operation, C language has no competitors and is invincible. For example, C language uses the array inta [3], which is compiled into [base address + offset]. For computers, , No one method is faster than that access method. "

At the scene, Bai Lang immediately said: "Although C language has reduced the operating efficiency of the hardware to the extreme, the problem brought by this design thinking is the lack of ease of use and security. For the wrong offset C language But turned a blind eye. "

Said Bai Lang helplessly spread his hands.

Luo Sheng nodded and smiled: "Yes, this is the infamous cross-border problem in C. The only purpose of C is to run fast or crash quickly. It only cares about the program flying high and never cares about the program. The crew is not tired. There is no such language as 'easy to develop and fast to run' in this world. After all, easy development comes from the packaging of the bottom layer. "

Speaking of this, Luo Shengton added for a moment: "There is a popular question now ... can you invent a language that is equally fast, but not as many pits as C? The answer is yes, and there are already such languages The name is [D language], which was released by a company called DigitalMars five years ago with the intention of improving the C ++ language, but it has not become popular. "

Luo Sheng continued to bluntly say: "Because of a very basic reality problem, there are too many, too many C codes, and they are basically working normally. Linux, Window, Unix, etc. The kernel is all C, and our AoS system kernel is also C. "

"Although I'm not sure what the proportion of C is in Window, I believe that Microsoft engineers will not go to rewrite the kernel of an operating system with C #. I want these people to use your brand-new language. A bit silly and naive. "

"It's like you are an IT engineer. Now you want to change your career. Would you like it? Think about it? That means that the experience and knowledge you have accumulated before are worthless. In the IT world, you are a great god, but You are Xiaobai, you have to learn how to write again. "

"So you are definitely not willing. The reason is the same. The D language has not become popular. Developers prefer to continuously optimize C. This is an ecological problem. C is already occupied by C. You want to start another stove and replace it. It is no less than restarting the entire human Internet. Infrastructure, is this possible? "

"So those Chinese compilers are flickering investors who don't know how to cheat them. There are actually Chinese compilers. It seems to be pretty good, but you don't have any way?"

"And some code ca n’t be changed at all. A simple 5 CPU flight control software is written. You need to perform a full coverage test on it. What happens if one or more of the CPUs fail? You can do a simple math Combination. You'll find it after testing, let alone rewrite, even if you add a comment. "

"Then why do we insist on using C? In the future, when the near future will be accompanied by the rise of embedded and real-time systems, artificial intelligence, robotics, autonomous driving, etc., these seem remote but promising in the future, and these are all C language Core applications, and at this application level, the C language has no competitors. "

"Can we fault these outlets? No!"

A few minutes later, when Luo Sheng was preparing to continue, the mobile phone in his pocket heard the sound of vibration, and he took out and stared at the phone call from Qin Weimu.

"Okay, that's it for the time being. The time left for us is less than half a year. We must pass the AoS beta and complete the bottom-level optimization in these days." Luo Sheng first left this hall with such a sentence.

It is indeed the boss and the gangsters. The engineers present at the scene suddenly respected and worshiped endlessly.

Luo Sheng answered the phone when he was out of the lobby: "It's me, what's the matter?"

Qin Weimu, the other end of the phone, replied: "Apple's CEo Jobs has visited in person and is now in the company waiting room."

Luo Sheng yelled, "Are you in the company? Why don't you have any news?"

Qin Weimu: "I heard them say that this visit is very low-key and the outside world doesn't even know it."

Hearing that Luo Sheng was stunned, with a little thought, he probably guessed that the owner of Qiao had come, mostly because of patent barriers. Many key patents are now registered by the Cote d'Azur.

In terms of multi-touch screen technology, this is a touch panel with a transparent sensing medium, which is used to detect simultaneous multi-touch or proximity touch at different positions on the touch panel, and is for each point in the multi-touch Touch is a patented technology that generates different signals that indicate the touch position on the touch panel.

Apple has been working on this technology internally, but squatting patents is one step behind, exactly one month later.

"Okay, I'll come over here."

Luo Sheng ended the communication, and after a few words, he left the Cote d'Azur laboratory and went to the company office building.

About ten minutes later, he met Jobs in the reception room.

Aside from other factors, Luo Sheng is quite respectful of Qiao Bangzhu, although the iPhone series of the previous Apple Inc. has become increasingly ugly in industrial design.

However, the industrial design of the iPhone 4 mobile phone really broke people's inherent perception of mobile phones. Qiao Gangzhu made a consumer electronics product into a work of art.

But then again, after returning to reality, Luo Sheng will not hold this emotional emotion, but will not give Apple and Joe any help, they must let them go.

The Cote d'Azur company still owes a debt to the bank. Qiao helped the owner come over this time.

Keke, can't say that, it is a patent fee, which is justified, this is how foreigners play.

You must know that many domestic classical prescriptions have been patented by foreigners, which were originally invented by their ancestors. As a result, they have to pay for foreigners after using them.

The meeting was a full 30-year-old talk between the two parties, but the magic of Joe ’s classic “Reality Twisting Force Field” was lost here.

Fudge to Fudge, the result must be Fudge.

The two sides briefly talked about Rockr, Apple's first failure to enter the mobile phone market.

Luo Sheng laughed: "I also bought a Rockr on the market. This product is doomed to fail, because Rockr's impact on the iPod is inevitable, but the iPod has brought a lot of money for Apple. Your company hopes to slow its impact, so At Rockr, try to limit the capabilities of the iTunes software to mitigate the threat to the iPod. "

"Obviously, this is confusing, and Motorola doesn't want to try new digital music on its best-selling model, and Apple doesn't want to show the best of its iTunes player software at Rockr."

"This phone is like a child with mental retardation born of two brilliant and talented parents. It cannot download music directly, it needs to be connected to a computer to upload songs to the phone, and it can only save 100 songs. As a consumer, I deeply feel Disappointed, I wasted more than three hundred dollars for nothing, you have to pay me. "

Joe helps the master: "..."

Luo Sheng's current mentality is to talk to Lao Qiao plainly. This is not a question of disrespect. It is now a dialogue scene of equal status.

Facing Luo Sheng's ridicule, Qiao Bangzhu was embarrassed but helpless because he could not find a reason to refute.

This topic was quickly passed. Despite the huge age difference of 30 years between the two sides, Qiao Gangzhu did not despise the young man in front of him.

A company that can easily navigate the capital circle and has created an IPo listing in just three years, and now has a market value above Apple, can such a person seem to be so simple on the surface.

If it was a simple young boy who was so young as he could show, he could create such an achievement? Come on.

Age turned into his best camouflage, making others despise him.

Strictly speaking, Apple is now competing with Bluestar Technology Group. This is actually the fact that the owner is angry. Apple has not entered the social network, but Bluestar Technology has entered the digital music market.

Old Joe is absolutely convinced that Luo Sheng wants to kill iTunes. Although MusicSpace's market share is only about 15%, iTunes has firmly dominated the digital music market share under the popularity of iPod, but this is enough for Joe to pay attention to.

The scene was also very interesting. Qiao Gangzhu seemed to be asking what the Cote d'Azur was doing between words, while Luo Sheng was talking nonchalantly, and Qiao Qiao helped the host. The Cote d'Azur company did a flip machine with a plastic keyboard.

Lao Qiao smiled in his heart, apparently very skeptical, trying to test each other.

"Sometimes life will pick up a brick and slap it on your head. The patent barrier of the Cote d'Azur company is a brick on Apple." Jobs shook his head with a smile and looked at Luo Sheng in front of him, he added "Mr. Luo, Apple hopes to obtain 26 patent licenses for your company, including multi-touch technology."

Qiao helped the host ’s accompanying assistant to take out a text from the briefcase and hand it to Luo Sheng, who closed it at a glance, and laughed: "These 26 patents are fine, but the license fee is Apple's annual To pay a $ 350 million license fee, sign a five-year contract and pay $ 350 million on time every day today. "

"What?"

When Joe helped him to hear the price, it was impossible to say that he was not angry.

350 million US dollars per year, signed for 5 years, that is 1.75 billion US dollars, which is like a lion's big mouth, which is ugly compared to Qualcomm's appearance.

Why don't you grab it?

"The annual licensing fee of 350 million US dollars, this is very unreasonable, I can't accept it." Qiao Gang said without hesitation, it was just plainly grabbing money.

"No, we have spent a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and the company's operations also need to be maintained by profits. I can't accept it below this price." Luo Sheng said categorically. It is the price that Luo Sheng refuses to help Joe.

If Qiao Gang or other people at Apple did not take the initiative to seek patent authorization, Luo Sheng may not be able to control it. After all, his own advent in this world has undergone huge changes. His appearance and the appearance of Blue Star Technology Group are the biggest. Change.

However, Lao Qiao came personally, which allowed Luo Sheng to judge that Apple must be secretly pursuing the research and development of the iPhone project ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ When the fog was opened, it was found that there was a huge patent barrier in front of it. before.

And this also gave Luo Sheng another extremely important basis for judgment. Apple's iPhone project is at least 10 months behind [Azure] and even more.

If Luo Sheng is giving Apple a card here, I am afraid that it may not be able to successfully launch the iPhone product by 2008. Even with the help of Joe ’s urine, will the iPhone be put on hold because of Tsundere?

This is possible. The iPad project is not allowed due to the development of multi-touch screens. Now, it is not the old Joe who has entered the cold room.

You know, before a large group company launches a product, it doesn't know how many projects are behind it.
