I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World

Chapter 40: develop software

Views:

Obviously his worries were unnecessary, Jiang Chen's tone was still so "amiable".

At least that's what it sounds like to Du Yongkang.

"I like the title boss," Jiang Chen smiled, then pulled out his resume and got straight to the point, "Du Yongkang, 30 years old, male, computer major, former director of the technology department of Walker Technology Company. Right? ?”

"Yes..." Du Yongkang was a little unsure of the meaning of Jiang Chen's words, so he answered cautiously.

"That's easy. You can develop an operating system for me and it can be used on it. It shouldn't be difficult for you, right?" Jiang Chen said straight to the point, and then threw a Huawei smartphone in front of him. hands.

"Eh?"

"This is an order. I hope to hear a positive answer." Jiang Chen didn't waste any more nonsense. After all, he didn't buy people back to serve him, but wanted them to work for him.

"Yes, yes." Du Yongkang nodded quickly, without the slightest air of a famous company executive. Those ridiculous self-esteems have long been obliterated by the cruelty of the apocalypse. Jiang Chen controls his life and death, and working for Jiang Chen is his only way out.

Seeing Du Yongkang's timid look, Jiang Chen suddenly grinned, then walked up and patted him on the shoulder. Ignoring the flattered expression on his face, Jiang Chen continued.

"You don't have to be so formal. Do it well and I won't treat you badly."

"Understood, boss." Du Yongkang lowered his head knowingly.

Jiang Chen nodded, and then continued, "I will simply state my request. If you have any difficulties, you can raise them, but you must overcome them. Do you understand?"

"yes."

"Very good," Jiang Chen was very satisfied with Du Yongkang's affirmative answer and continued, "I don't understand the operating system, I only look at the results. I want you to develop a hardware that is at least two times more efficient than this software called Android. times the operating system. At the same time, without changing the hardware conditions, it can be compatible with all software on Android and this IOS system to the maximum extent. If you have any questions, please ask, you will not see me many times. , and I will see the results next month.”

After saying that, Jiang Chen threw another iPhone into his hand. Both of these mobile phones are bare metal, and both were purchased by Jiang Chen not long ago.

After Du Yongkang took the phone, he fiddled with the screen with his fingers for a while, and then showed a wry smile.

"What? Is it difficult for you?" Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.

"No, it's not, but it's too simple." Du Yongkang quickly waved his hand and shook his head. To be honest, he was really afraid that the boss would fire him suddenly. Such an easy job was something he wouldn't have had even before the war!

"Oh? Tell me." Jiang Chen showed an interested expression.

Du Yongkang adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, showed his cell phone professionally, and then explained.

"First of all, this old operating system should be a product of more than 150 years ago. Whether it is the efficiency of the hardware or the troublesome human-computer interaction method, there are many things that are criticized."

"Oh? Are you talking about the poor human-computer interaction of this Crazy Love 5?" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Du Yongkang secretly took a look at Jiang Chen's expression and found that Jiang Chen didn't feel angry because of his disparaging words about the two operating systems, so he gradually relaxed his courage and explained in more depth.

"First of all, in terms of hardware utilization efficiency, although it seems logically rigorous, there are many complications. To put it simply, it is like a statement that can be summarized by 1+1, but it is affected by compiled languages and algorithms. Due to a series of technical limitations, the processor has to do some unnecessary things. First define A=1, =1, then calculate C=A+, and finally get C=2, and then output C as the result... . .. Of course, this is just an example. In short, this old processing method not only takes up memory, but also extremely delays the operating efficiency of the device."

"Oh? Then what are you going to do?" Jiang Chen asked with interest.

"This is easy to solve. In the final analysis, it is still the limitations of the compiled language. Although the two operating systems have their own advantages and disadvantages, they cannot escape the framework of low-level compiled languages. If D++ is used for compilation, compatibility and other minor adjustments can be It can be done, and the operating efficiency of this antique called a mobile phone will be increased by more than three times, and the energy consumption will be doubled. At the same time, because the load on the hardware will be reduced, the life of the hardware will be greatly extended."

Jiang Chen took a breath.

This is so outrageous! Hardware operating efficiency increased by more than three times? And a program that is perfectly compatible with both softwares? Damn, just these two functions are enough to make people crazy. Doesn't this mean that even if you hold a ** or silk screen machine, you can still run smoothly the games that were originally only played by rich people with gold belts. This will simply set off a technological revolution in the mobile gaming industry!

How many mobile game developers are racking their brains to reduce the memory occupied by the game, optimize it, and reluctantly streamline (castrate, cut off) powerful functions that cannot adapt to the public, sacrificing gameplay in exchange for adaptability to the user base. But if this operating system comes out, the performance of all users' mobile phones will be improved three times! By then, all creativity will be completely liberated, and you can conceive and design as wildly as you want. Everyone’s mobile phone can carry it. Isn’t this a technological revolution? Do iOS and Android have this feature

"What about human-computer interaction? My suggestion is to maintain the status quo as much as possible. After all... Well, after all, I am used to this simple interface." Jiang Chen paused and said. He was not going to reveal his identity to this person he had just met. Even if his life and death are controlled by him.

"Believe me, boss, my design will definitely be much more advanced than this backward human-computer interaction method." When it came to technology, the former technology executive immediately seemed to be a different person and became enthusiastic, " Yes, the method of human-computer interaction through touch panels is still mainstream even now, but there is an essential gap between this backward operating system and the operating system used in today's civilian entertainment electronic devices."

"What is the difference?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.

"AI!"

"Artificial intelligence? Can you do it?" Jiang Chen frowned and asked.

"If it's just basic artificial intelligence, I can definitely do it within a month. After all, the relevant tools are already available in the library's database. I just need to do the transplantation work." Du Yongkang I patted my chest and confirmed my arrival.

"I'm curious, since artificial intelligence is not that difficult, why is it not available on the holographic computer?" Jiang Chen asked doubtfully. Since it is so easy to use, there is no reason not to use it on a holographic computer.

"Well, this is because the Artificial Intelligence Act restricts the development of artificial intelligence. If everything is left to machines, everyone will be unemployed." Du Yongkang shrugged, "Artificial intelligence operating systems were once popular After a while, it was later replaced by a neural access operating system that was as interactive as artificial intelligence. Before the disaster, the use of artificial intelligence was limited to nuclear power plants, water treatment plants and other welfare operations operated by government agencies. facility."

"I see... Then the elementary artificial intelligence you are talking about, doesn't it have any risks?" Jiang Chen asked a question that he was more concerned about. If that artificial intelligence system "reproduces" crazily in the modern network, and then evolves into a malicious program... He remembered a movie he once watched called "Mechanical Enemy", which depicted a What kind of landscape will a world dominated by artificial intelligence look like

"Boss, you are worrying too much." Du Yongkang seemed to have guessed Jiang Chen's concerns and sighed, "In the end, programs are still programs. Even if they are intelligent, they cannot have feelings, desires, etc. Things. In essence, he will only do things according to the program you compiled, and his intelligence is just a situational reaction method that you have 'taught' him in advance. For example, if you punch him, he will not Will fight back, and there will be no subjective feelings such as interests being violated or hostility. Unless you 'tell him' that if someone punches you, you should punch him back. Only in this way will he do it The reaction to fight back. Self-compilation is an ability that only intermediate artificial intelligence has. As for emotions... that is something that only high-level artificial intelligence has. Before the war, it was only in the conceptual stage."

Artificial intelligence, in the final analysis, is just a relatively sophisticated program.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen nodded with relief.

"Okay, I will leave this matter entirely to you. I only look at the results, and you just have to try boldly. By the way, there is one more thing you should pay attention to. This operating system must be kept confidential! I don’t want if I put this phone in the hands of another person, he will immediately crack the entire operating system and come up with something similar.”

Confidentiality is the top priority. Jiang Chen doesn't want the software he worked so hard to develop to be open sourced by others in a few days. And if that D++ compilation method was exposed, he really couldn't explain it.

It is best to make the program as tight as an iron box, only exchange data with the outside world, and not accept any operations such as unpacking.

Du Yongkang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted his chest.

"Don't worry, boss! The program I made is definitely not that easy to crack. I package all the games of Pacer Technology Company myself. If nothing else, just take the game that was launched not long before the war. For "Star Wars Storm 7", no international cracking team has been able to crack the game so far. As for the operating system packets of this level, it is no problem for me."

Think about it too.

If someone in this world can even decipher the handwriting of this former technical director of Walker Technology Company who has mastered black technology more than 150 years ago, it can only mean that he is a time traveler. Jiang Chen will kill him no matter what. Ahem, of course, this is impossible.

"Yes, if you can do it, it will be a great achievement! Work hard, I guarantee you will have meat to eat every meal!" Jiang Chen laughed and patted Du Yongkang's shoulder and said loudly.

Hearing this, Du Yongkang was naturally overjoyed. Having meat to eat every meal was something he couldn't even imagine. Du Yongkang, who had received the sweetness, immediately patted his chest to confirm his decision, and then began to flatter Jiang Chen in various ways. As expected of a manager, not only are they top-notch in terms of technology, but they are also very good at flattering people. Jiang Chen didn't dislike people who were clever in doing things.

"Last point, for the 'Future Technology' logo, you must make it a little cool. The kind of style that looks very high-tech at first glance, but not too exaggerated, you know."

"Yes! Boss!"

This guy almost shouted.

Seeing Du Yongkang's confident momentum, Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction, and then waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.

Full of joy, Du Yongkang strode away with two mobile phones in his arms. Of course, he did not forget to put away his dishes before leaving. He didn't have to move bricks like a migrant worker and could return to his old profession. He had not dared to dream about such a happy thing for many years.

But today it happened.

In addition to being grateful to Jiang Chen, Du Yongkang also showed great momentum and made up his mind to make a masterpiece that would stun the boss! Although this kind of electronic product is very backward, who wants to be the boss? Doing what you like is the best way to "climb up." He didn't care what Jiang Chen wanted to do with this thing, as long as he completed the boss's task, it was enough.
