Chapter 14-Want to Compete with Microsoft1
Great Wall Sheraton Hotel
Qiu Baijun sat in front of Li Yilian and sized him up curiously.
"President Li, you were looking for me?" Qiu Baijun didn't know Li Yilian's identity and background, so he spoke rather politely.
Li Yilian smiled and nodded.""Not bad. I've seen your Chinese Character Library before. This word processing system is not bad, and it can completely replace Word Star. To be honest, I didn't expect that there would be such an excellent software programmer in our country.”
Lord Qiu Bai said proudly,""President Li, you must be joking!"
For Lord Qiu Baijun, this was definitely a proud memory.
In order to develop WPS, from May 1988 to September of the following year, he begged Bai-Jun to lock himself in a room and write non-stop as long as he was awake.
Whenever she was tired, she would sleep for a while. When she was hungry, she would eat instant noodles.
In this one year and four months, Uncle Qiu had fallen ill three times. The first time was when he had a relapse. The second time was when he had a relapse. The third time was when he had a relapse. Each time, he would be hospitalized for one to two months.
The second relapse was the most critical moment in the development of the software. Bai Jun, please move the computer to the ward and continue writing.
In fact, for programmers in the 1990s, the real pain of development was not being plagued by illness, nor was it being physically and mentally haggard, but loneliness.
There were too few people who understood this. When they had a problem, they didn't know who to ask. When they solved the problem, there was no one to share the joy.
Qiu Baijun was completely alone. In a lonely environment, he wrote a few hundred thousand lines of WPS. When he finished writing the last line of the program, Qiu Baijun didn't feel anything. In his own words, after any product was successfully made, he wouldn't have any feelings. The so-called feelings were all summarized later.
One had to admit that this group of people in the 1990s still had some dreams.
"I'm not joking!" Li Yilian smiled and said slowly,""I invited you here today. My plan is to establish a Kingsoft software company and let you be in charge of the technology!”
Qiu Baijun was slightly stunned. May I know what kind of technology CEO Li wants to develop?”
Li Yilian smiled and said unhurriedly,""To develop an operating system that belongs to us Chinese!”
"What?" Qiu Baijun was stunned. She looked at Li Yilian in disbelief and said,""Our own people will develop an operating system that belongs to China?”
"Yes!" Li Yilian nodded.
" This…" Lord Qiu Bai was stunned, and he couldn't help but say,""So, President Li, which direction do you plan to develop in?”
"You've asked the right person!”Li Yilian laughed and quickly said,""Currently, the market is still mainly based on the windows 3.0 system. The operation of the computer is completely different from the graphics operating system, but the computer needs to input instructions to run the program.”
"It has always been like this. Boss Li, what do you think?" Qiu Baijun nodded.”
"My plan is a graphics operating system!”Li Yilian smiled and said calmly,"" To put it simply, it's about designing icons on the desktop and then driving programs to run. It brings a more powerful, stable, and practical desktop user interface. At the same time, I believe that this will definitely end the competition between desktop operating systems.”
Qiu Baijun was a little confused. However, after he had a detailed conversation with Li Yilian, his entire body trembled.
Li Yilian's train of thought had broken the conventional train of thought.
His brain immediately began to work, pondering the feasibility of this plan.
After a long time, he suddenly said,""I think this is a completely feasible path!”
"When I was in the United States, I bought a lot of copyrights, mainly Xerox's technology. Whether it was Apple or Microsoft-based companies in the United States, they all stole part of this company's technology.”
Li Yilian shrugged and continued,""However, don't worry. I'll provide you with some bad data. This operating system won't touch other patents.”
"Other than you, there's also Wu Xiaojun, Bao Yueqiao, Zhou Zhinong, Liu Xu, Zhu Chongjun, Wang Jiangmin, Wang Zhidong, and Liang Zhaoxin. I plan to gather them together, mainly for software development and the design of our operating system!”Li Yilian said quickly,
This group of people was also considered to be the experts that most people were familiar with. Over the years, there were only about ten to twenty of them. Those who had come into contact with computers in the country had used or still used the programs that they had condensed with their wisdom and hard work.
If he could, he would dig them all up.
Qiu Baijun took a deep breath. He could fully feel Li Yilian's generosity.
If this group of people gathered together, then he would not be alone to deal with the problem. This group of people were all domestic experts.
He suddenly realized Li Yilian's train of thought.
This was to completely establish a bottom-level logic.
In the future, not to mention the world, at least in China, all software development must follow the operating system developed by Li Yilian.
If this really succeeded!
That would be a showdown with Microsoft.com.
Qiu Baijun took a deep breath, and his eyes shone with excitement. He felt challenged and excited.
"I'll do it!" Qiu Baijun nodded fiercely.
"Don't be anxious!" Li Yilian smiled and said,"I haven't given you any benefits yet!"”
