Chen Fan had expected Red Star's operating system to become popular, but Xue Ci and Zhou Cheng were completely shocked.
They knew that this operating system would be popular, but they didn't expect it to be so popular. In two days, he had sold more than 500,000 copies of the system disk!
Moreover, this was only the beginning. There would be more sales in the future.
In the office, Chen Fan was typing away on the keyboard. He had finished the finishing touches of his killing machine. He turned his chair and looked at Xue Ci and Zhou Cheng sitting on the sofa. He smiled and said,""Now do you understand why I didn't sell my shares?”
Yes, the two of them completely understood that this operating system was definitely an epoch-making product. Although some programs were not particularly compatible with the hardware, Chen Fan used the system environment and optimized the code to make up for some of these problems. When ordinary people used it, they would only feel that it was better than Win98, but they would not feel the slightest discomfort.
Moreover, there were several attractive points about the Red Planet system.
First, there was no need to go to the computer store to install the system. All he needed to do was insert the system CD into the CD drive, click on the program, and follow the instructions in Chinese. The installation would be completed within ten minutes.
Just this alone was enough to attract many people. Win98's most frustrating problem was the installation process. A series of complicated English instructions made many ordinary people spend an extra amount of money to install the system.
Secondly, the drive letters were clearly differentiated. Drive C (system drive), Drive D (soft keyboard), Start key to return to the desktop, restart, shut down, lock, and enter the password to unlock. These things were very important to netizens who wanted to protect their privacy.
Thirdly, the overall image of the computer, the novel browser, and the navigation of a few websites in the browser were all things that would attract the most netizens.
At the moment, the ferry and Google search engines were not online yet, so it was still very difficult to search for things. Basically, it was only through word of mouth between netizens that they knew about some of the more popular forums.
In the 1997 environment, even games were pitifully rare. However, because of the Red Star operating system, Chen Fan redefined the web page programming language and first introduced the Hypertext mark-up language of the first, as well as the more advanced CSS-and-Javelin style files. Therefore, on the surface of the browser, as well as his own official website, there were some very practical interface images and dynamic effects.
With this, Chen Fan had built some Mini games into the operating system and browser. This was another big killer!
Mini games like Fruit Ninja, Matchstick Man, and Ninja Turtle.
These things really attracted many people.
Not to mention anything else, just these three points were enough to kill the Win98 system in the current environment!
The current internet environment was not as diverse as the future. Playing on the computer was basically searching for some information or communicating with netizens on the forum. Many rich functions had not yet been launched, so the playability was not as high.
After Chen Fan's Red Star System was released, it had firmly captured thousands of users.
These games had truly captured their hearts.
Especially Xue Ci and Zhou Cheng. When they saw that the browser's home page had the most popular forum of Qinghua University, as well as links to business websites, as well as some large and small websites from home and abroad, they were amazed. How much convenience did such a small home page bring to the netizens?
In the past, people didn't know how to find websites at all. They would pass it on by word of mouth or ask offline what websites were available. But now, with this homepage, it was even more convenient.
"Boss, you're really smart. No wonder you're reluctant to sell your shares.”Zhou Cheng flattered Chen Fan, but it was not exactly flattering. He admired Chen Fan very much. Just these ideas alone were not something that ordinary people could think of.
"Boss, we're all up now. Should we hire some employees?" Xue Ci chimed in. Although the three of us are enough at the moment, there are some things that the three of us can't finish together.”
Xue Ci could barely keep up with the pace of finance, but there was too much data. It was impossible to calculate it clearly at the moment.
Moreover, the sales team needed to be formed, which required human resources.
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and said," Okay, you two can discuss it later. But Old Zhou, I have to make it clear to you that I currently have 100% of the shares of Red Star's operating system company, so you can make suggestions, but you don't have the right to make decisions for Red Star.”
" I'll allocate a million yuan to the company's account for the company's development. I believe that I've received a lot of money in the past two days. I'll be able to operate a lot of things…"
As Chen Fan spoke, he ignored the two of them and once again lay in front of the computer, typing away on the keyboard.
One by one, the letters jumped up again.
" Oh right, I've written a new code document. It contains the latest definition of C, C , Java, JS, and SSS, as well as html5. These are all the most suitable development languages for the Red Star system. They will be of great use in the future. Zhou Cheng, if you have time, you can get Xue Ci to form a development team and learn these programming languages. It would be even better if you can recruit some experts. These will be faster to get started. I have some projects that will use these programming languages.”
He casually pointed at the computer beside him and then buried himself in the development of the product.
Zhou Cheng subconsciously glanced at the development document displayed on the computer. At first, he was a little disapproving, but the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became. In the end, he couldn't care less about anything else and directly experimented with these development languages on this new computer.
Zhou Cheng also graduated from a computer science university in China, and his understanding of code was not low. After experimenting with it himself, he finally understood how powerful Chen Fan's latest code language and concept were.
These writing methods and syntaxes could at least simplify the current code by 60%, freeing up more code space. Moreover, the performance would be stronger, and the possibility of bugs, which meant loopholes, would be smaller.
Especially the code editor. The code editor on this computer had also been optimized by Chen Fan. It added a keyword association function. Basically, by typing a letter, it could associate a lot of options, and only needed to choose the most correct logic.
Not only could it save development time, but it could also maximize the strength of the programmer.
Zhou Cheng was completely impressed by Chen Fan's wisdom.
He couldn't help but wonder what kind of brain Chen Fan had. How could there be so many new ideas?
