Although Zhao Yi said a lot above, there are not many places that involve difficult technologies. They are all relatively easy to implement, but no one thought that this could be done before.
The only difficult part is the intelligent recommendation algorithm. If you want to improve the user experience and make users unable to stop at a glance, a good intelligent recommendation algorithm is particularly important.
Moreover, the contents mentioned above are all extended systems. In fact, he also has many ideas about Qianxun Technology Company’s main business, search engine. If realized, Qianxun’s position in the search engine field will be more stable. .
At present, the Qianxun search engine only searches for Internet content information. In fact, in addition to this, another search technology that is more frequently used is in-site vertical search.
The most typical one is product search in e-commerce platforms. In addition, it can also be extended to content information retrieval in all sites. With the increase of Internet websites in the future, this business has a very bright future.
As for their current search engine, Zhao Yi also has a lot of ideas. The first is to increase search types. Currently, they only support text searches relatively well, but search for pictures and videos is not satisfactory.
It's just that their requirements for this area were not high before. Most of the web content was presented in text. When searching for images and videos, it was not a big deal to search by title.
But if the short video platform really develops, and Xinghan Technology Company's social platform has more and more pictures, the current search engine will appear relatively clumsy.
However, using traditional technology to improve video and picture retrieval will be very difficult, the accuracy will not be very high, and the key information obtained is actually very limited.
The second is to improve their search engine intelligence. The current search engine technology is based on the common search engine technology in previous generations. Although it is very advanced at present, if the next generation search engine is not developed, others will eventually catch up.
The speed of development of the Internet in this life is destined to be faster than that in the previous life. Although we have a first-mover advantage, we cannot deny that others also have strong competitive potential in this area. It is really not certain who will win in the future.
Therefore, when it comes to the pursuit of products, we cannot just be satisfied with the current situation, but also need to continue to develop new technologies before competitors can react.
This idea is similar to the tactics used by Tianxing Semiconductor Company, which is to be one step ahead of others, so that competitors will be exhausted and eventually die of exhaustion.
Moreover, our country lags behind Yingjiang in terms of basic education in information technology. This is an indisputable fact, although the companies under Zhao Yi are quite strong in this area, much stronger than Yingjiang.
But this cannot replace the overall backwardness. Realizing this, Zhao Yicai did not hesitate to spend huge sums of money to build Tianwen University of Information Technology, with the purpose of catching up in information technology education.
In this context, if his Internet companies are complacent and do not want to make progress, they will be easily surpassed by competitors. If they are not careful, they will have already gained momentum. In the end, it will be too late to regret.
Zhao Yi told his thoughts about search engines, giving Jin Jiming a clearer understanding of the subsequent development of search engines.
Having said so much, the shortcoming of our country's weak foundation in this area was finally exposed, that is, there are not enough manpower to realize these things.
According to Jin Jiming's estimate, if we want to achieve so many things Zhao Yi said in a short period of time, Qianxun Technology Company must have at least 30,000 employees.
This is a huge deviation from their current number of employees. Qianxun Technology Company has spent more than a year trying every means, and now the number of employees is far from 10,000, with less than 5,000.
Among such a small number of people, not all of them are top experts. In fact, most of them are still at the intermediate level, and a considerable number of them are even students recruited from high schools and are still in the learning and training stage.
Since Qianxun Technology Company is in such a situation, Xinghan Technology Company will not be much better. Both companies are suffering from a serious shortage of employees.
Regardless of the rapid development of the Internet in my country, in fact, for most practitioners, the traditional software industry is more attractive. After all, the example of Fanxing Software Company is there.
Fanxing Software can become the world's top software company, and its annual revenue is very scary. This shows that the software industry has great potential, and most people are more willing to work in the traditional software industry.
As for Internet companies, although they currently have some influence, after all, the games played in Internet cafes, the web pages browsed, and the chat software used for chatting cannot be faked and everyone can see them.
But no one knows whether these things can make money. After all, except for a small number of people who have ideals and goals in their work, most people just do it to make money to support their families.
Before people clearly see the development potential of the Internet, they are naturally unwilling to enter this industry. This is human nature, and it is useless even if Internet companies make breakthroughs.
In addition, there are only a few people engaged in this industry. Internet companies that want to develop and expand face difficulties not only in terms of funding, but more importantly, insufficiency of manpower.
If you give them enough time to develop slowly, the problem is actually not big. Colleges and universities will consciously recruit more students in software majors to provide the society with more software talents.
However, the competition among Internet companies does not only come from domestic, but more competition comes from abroad. Putting aside other things, Yingjiang’s talent pool in this area is much stronger than that of our country.
Therefore, if our country wants to shorten the gap in this area, it must adopt some special methods. Improving the efficiency of programming tools as mentioned before is one of them.
In addition, Zhao Yi feels that it is necessary to establish a technology exchange and software tool exchange platform. This platform is currently only used among his software companies. As for opening it to the outside world, it needs to be considered comprehensively.
This platform is actually similar to the open source platform in the previous life. Each company can upload the components it develops to this platform, and then if other companies find that they can use it, they can download the application and use it for their own development.
Of course, if you improve these components during your own development, you can also submit them to the platform, which will make the components more complete and more powerful.
If this platform is built, it will be equivalent to bringing together all the software talents in our country. This will not only expand the scope of intelligence, but also have huge benefits for the development of these enterprises.
First, the collision of ideas can often give birth to new ideas. Second, companies do not need to reinvent the wheel, which can save a lot of time and manpower and improve system development efficiency.
The popularity of open source platforms in the previous life was not only for the initial purpose of prospering the software industry, but later more and more large companies also participated. Why
Even these large companies have realized that with the trend of software systems becoming larger and larger, they will increasingly be unable to do what they can with their own company's human resources alone, and their ideas will gradually solidify, making it increasingly difficult to break through.
It can be said that open source platforms comply with the needs of the development of the times and are an inevitable trend in saving human resources and technological innovation, so Zhao Yi feels that he should follow the trend.
The main reason why he initially only conducted exchanges among his companies was that more than 90% of domestic software talents were in these companies, and there was no need to open up for the time being.
In addition, our country has not yet completely established its own advantages in the international Internet field, widening the gap with its competitors, and hastily opening up to the outside world is a good thing for competitors, but it is not necessarily a good thing for the development of our country's Internet.
In addition, Zhao Yi feels that it is time to bring out the cross-platform language developed by Fanxing Software Company, which will have huge benefits for the development of Internet companies.
The most basic benefit is that Internet companies do not need to write several sets of code to adapt to the platform, thus saving human resources.
Secondly, although the previous language has been improved, it still does not break away from the limitations of C language. It is difficult for novices to learn and use.
The cross-platform language of Fanxing Software Company has made great improvements in the language structure, shields many underlying technologies, and is more friendly to novices.
However, Fanxing Software Company's cross-platform language is not particularly perfect yet. If it is launched at this time, there are still many problems that need to be solved, and various problems will inevitably arise in practical applications.
Therefore, Zhao Yiyi needs to further optimize their cross-platform language to meet the needs of most scenarios.
In addition, there is the issue of execution efficiency. Because there are many encapsulations of the underlying technology, the efficiency will definitely be greatly reduced, which is inevitable.
Therefore, Zhao Yi prepared to improve the cross-platform language they developed, improve their execution efficiency, and try to achieve a variety of software writing needs in one language.
More importantly, Zhao Yi plans to use a large number of intelligent technologies in their cross-platform language to further improve their development efficiency and provide a better support environment for basic intelligent algorithms.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yi felt that he had put so many things on his hands during this trip. If it weren't for the junior artificial intelligence at hand, he would never be willing to do these things.
Not to mention him alone, even if he is given tens of thousands of people, it is very difficult to do so many things in a short time, and it takes a lot of his energy.
Zhao Yi then continued to check out all the current products of Qianxun Technology Company. This time he didn't say anything about the shortcomings. Anyway, he would correct them all after returning, so there is no need to dwell on them here.
After reading all the products, whether they were online or not, his inspection of Qianxun Technology Company was coming to an end.
Looking at the sky outside, it was already midnight. Zhao Yi had dinner in the cafeteria of Qianxun Technology Company, and then drove to the hotel to spend the night before heading to Xinghan Technology Company tomorrow.
Because time was tight, Zhao Yi was not as leisurely as before in the hotel. Instead, he took the time to record the ideas born during this period and design related algorithms and architecture.
Since there are so many things that require his hands-on work, even designing algorithms and architectures is not an easy task. He can only take the time to do it slowly and do whatever he can.
Early the next morning, Zhao Yi rushed to Xinghan Technology Company. When he arrived at the headquarters of Xinghan Technology Company, Zhong Hanxiang was already waiting downstairs.
Even though the headquarters of Xinghan Technology Company is not very good like the headquarters of Qianxun Technology Company, Xinghan Technology Company's spending speed is very huge.
Because Zhao Yi gave them the task of building data centers, they have built five large data centers in the country, distributed in several major regions in the country.
The investment scale of each data center has reached about 3 billion yuan, and 15 billion yuan has been spent in China alone. This is already a huge number in China.
In addition, they have also built many data centers in various countries around the world in advance. Although they may not be used now, they will be of great use in the future.
For example, domestic data centers are basically used by brother companies. Now Zhao Yi's companies no longer purchase their own servers to build data centers, but choose to use the cloud services of Xinghan Technology Company.
This not only enables rapid deployment, but also saves them a lot of money. More importantly, the cloud services provided by Xinghan Technology Company are much more stable and reliable than they can do it themselves.
Because these cloud service technologies and basic technologies are all created by Zhao Yi, they are of course not at the same level as the technologies they have explored themselves.
More importantly, the cloud service provided by Xinghan Technology is a one-stop service. Major Internet companies only need to focus on their software research and development, and all other aspects can be completed by Xinghan Technology's cloud service.
Currently, the non-critical modules of Fanxing Software Company, Lingheng Technology Company, Golden Shield Technology Company, Qianxun Technology Company, and Polaris Game Company are all deployed on the cloud service platform of Xinghan Technology Company.
As for the core modules, of course it is more appropriate to put them in your own hands. For example, the core modules of the smart customer service of Hengchen Technology Company are not so reassuring when deployed on a cloud platform.
In fact, these are all hidden troubles, because the defense work of Xinghan Technology Company's cloud platform is handed over to Jindun Technology Company, which is basically invulnerable.
However, Zhao Yi did not force the comparison. After all, everyone has a defensive mentality. Anyway, as long as it does not affect the specific use, it is completely up to the following wishes.
As for international cloud computing centers, Xinghan Technology Company is not only preparing for the future explosion of cloud computing demand, but also laying a solid foundation for its brother companies to go overseas.
That's why Xinghan Technology Company has deployed nearly a hundred cloud computing centers of various sizes around the world so far in advance. Large countries may deploy several cloud computing centers, and small countries must deploy at least one cloud computing center.
In addition, backup data centers will be deployed on regional nodes around the world. In total, it is impossible to reduce the number.
The main purpose of deploying at least one cloud computing center in a country is data security and improving efficient and stable network services.
For example, in the deployment of smart city brains in the future, the data inside will definitely have higher confidentiality requirements. This data can only be operated in the data center of the country, and the backup will also be performed in the country.
As for the regional backup data center, the main backup data is common Internet data that does not require particularly high confidentiality. Such centralized backup can save a lot of resources.
Xinghan Technology Company has invested 40 billion yuan in data center construction alone. Compared with other Internet companies, it can be regarded as a gold-swallowing monster.
But this has basically come to an end. The many data centers they have invested in and built are enough for global Internet companies to use for a long time.
In addition, they have advanced cloud computing technology and cloud service technology, which will make them very competitive in the world. They also have first-mover advantages. Zhao Yi is very optimistic about the future prospects.
So even though the headquarters of Xinghan Technology Company is so shabby, it is not only dilapidated, but also rents other people's properties to work, but in terms of assets, it is one of the few companies in the country and even the world.
Zhao Yi not only did not stop Xinghan Technology Company from building a data center so crazily, but he also supported it very much and did not hesitate to allocate funds.
The first is that although these investments are huge, all the orders are eventually divided among several of his companies, and not much money flows out.
For example, servers are provided by Polaris Company, security protection is provided by Golden Shield Technology Company, and products such as operating systems and databases are provided by Fanxing Software Company.
Network communications and other equipment are provided by Hengtong Communications Company and Huawei Technologies Company. Even some network broadband is provided by Hong Kong Telecom Company, leaving only infrastructure for the outside world.
The second is to greatly improve its industrial supporting capabilities. Although they had related products before, they had never experienced such a huge data center test.
In the process of building a large data center this time, his companies have upgraded their products to meet the needs of the big data center.
Especially for Polaris' servers, because they entered the market relatively late, although they are more confident in technology, their market share is not as good as their personal computers.
The servers they provide this time are also targeted in design. They have changed from the common one-server model. Instead, they use many supercomputer technologies, and there are also many innovative technologies.
Their technical improvements in the server field have great benefits. At least through the construction of these data centers, their technical level is much higher than IBM.
When Xinghan Technology's data center shines in the future, it will be a good advertisement for Xinghan Technology's server products, which will have huge benefits for the future development of their server business. (End of chapter)
