Report

Obviously, his worry was unnecessary as Jiang Chen's tone was still so "amiable."

At least in Du Yongkang's ears.

"I like the way you call me boss." Jiang Chen smiled as he flipped through his resume and went straight to the point. "Du Yongkang, 30 years old, male, computer major, former technical director of Walkman Technology. Is that right? "

"Yes …" Du Yongkang wasn't sure what Jiang Chen meant as he answered cautiously.

"That's easy. You can develop an operating system for me that can be used on this. It shouldn't be hard for you, right? "Jiang Chen was straightforward as he threw a Huawei smartphone in his hand.

"Eh?"

"This is an order. I want to hear a positive answer." Jiang Chen didn't waste any more time since he didn't buy this person to serve him, but to work for him.

"Yes, yes." Du Yongkang nodded furiously without the slightest air of a famous company's executive. His laughable self-esteem had long been erased in the cruelty of the apocalypse. Jiang Chen controlled his life and death. Working for Jiang Chen was his only way out.

Looking at Du Yongkang's timid expression, Jiang Chen suddenly grinned and patted him on the shoulder. Jiang Chen didn't care about the flattered expression on his face as he continued.

"No need to be so reserved. Work hard, and I won't mistreat you. "

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

Jiang Chen nodded and continued, "I'll simply state my request. You can tell me if you have any difficulties, but you must overcome them. Do you understand? "

"Yes."

"Excellent." Jiang Chen was pleased with Du Yongkang's affirmative answer as he continued, "I don't understand operating systems, I only look at the results. I want you to develop an operating system that is at least two times more efficient than this software called Android. At the same time, without changing the hardware conditions, it could be compatible with Android and all the software on the IOS system to the greatest extent. If you have any questions, ask now. You won't be able to see me often, and I want to see the results next month. "

Then, Jiang Chen threw an iPhone in his hand. Both phones were bare hardware that Jiang Chen bought not long ago.

After Du Yongkang took the phone, he fiddled with the screen for a while and then smiled bitterly.

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

"No, no, it's just that 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 suddenly fire him. Such an easy job, even before the war!

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

Du Yongkang adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and showed his phone in a professional manner.

"First of all, this old operating system should be a product from more than 150 years ago. Whether it's the efficiency of the hardware or the headache-inducing human-computer interaction, there are many things to criticize."

"Oh? You're saying the AI of the iPhone 5 is bad? "Jiang Chen laughed.

Du Yongkang secretly analyzed Jiang Chen's expression and realized that Jiang Chen wasn't angry because of his belittling of the two operating systems, so he began to explain in more detail.

"First of all, in terms of hardware efficiency, although it seems logical, there are a lot of troublesome parts. To put it simply, it's like a sentence that can be summarized by 1 + 1, but due to the limitations of the compiler language and algorithm, the processor has to do some unnecessary things. First, define A = 1, B = 1, then calculate C = A + B, then C = 2, then output C as the result … Of course, this is just an example. This old processing method not only uses up memory, but it also greatly slows down the efficiency of the device. "

"Oh? Then how do you plan to deal with it? "Jiang Chen was intrigued.

"This is easy to solve. Ultimately, it's still the limitations of the compiler language. Although both operating systems have their advantages and disadvantages, they can't escape from the framework of a low-level compiler language. If you use D + + to compile, the compatibility can be easily adjusted. Also, the efficiency of this antique called the phone will increase by more than three times, and the energy consumption will be reduced by one fold. At the same time, because of the reduced load on the hardware, the life of the hardware will also be greatly extended. "

Jiang Chen took a deep breath.

That was way too heaven-defying! [Hardware efficiency increased by more than three times? And it's perfectly compatible with both software?] [Just these two functions alone are enough to drive people crazy.] [Doesn't this mean that even if you have a loser's phone, you can run the game that only tycoons can run?] [This will set off a technological revolution in the mobile game industry!]

Many mobile game developers racked their brains to reduce the memory used by the game, optimize it, and painstakingly streamline (neuter) the powerful functions that couldn't be adapted to the public. They sacrificed the gameplay in exchange for a suitable user base. But once this operating system is released, all users' phone performance will increase by three times! At that time, all creativity will be completely liberated. No matter how imaginative your design is, everyone's phone will be able to run. If this isn't a technological revolution, then what is?] [Do IOS and Android have this function?]

"What about human-computer interaction? My suggestion is to maintain the status quo, after all … mhmm, after all, I'm used to this simple interface. "Jiang Chen paused. He didn't plan to reveal his identity to the person he just met. Even if his life was in Jiang Chen's hands.

"Trust me, boss, my design will definitely be much more advanced than this outdated human-computer interaction method." When it came to technology, the former technology executive immediately turned into a different person as he became passionate. "Yes, human-computer interaction through the touchpad is still mainstream, but this outdated operating system is fundamentally different from the operating system used in today's entertainment electronic devices."

"What's the difference?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.

"Artificial intelligence!"

"Artificial intelligence? Can you do it? "Jiang Chen asked with a frown.

"If it's just basic artificial intelligence, I'll definitely be able to create it within a month. After all, the relevant sets are readily available in the library's database. I just need to do some porting work." Du Yongkang patted his chest confidently.

"I'm curious, if artificial intelligence is not difficult, why isn't it on the holographic computer?" Jiang Chen was puzzled. If it was so useful, there was no reason not to use it on the holographic computer.

"Uh, this is because the Artificial Intelligence Act restricts the development of artificial intelligence. If we leave everything to the machines, everyone will lose their jobs. " Du Yongkang shrugged. "The artificial intelligence operating system was popular for a period of time, but it was later replaced by the neural interface operating system with the same level of interaction as artificial intelligence. Before the Cataclysm, the use of artificial intelligence was limited to nuclear power plants, water treatment plants, and other welfare facilities operated by government agencies. "

"I see … then the basic artificial intelligence you talked about, won't there be any risks?" Jiang Chen asked a question he was more concerned about. If the artificial intelligence system in the modern world "multiplied" crazily and evolved into a malicious program … he remembered a movie called "The Enemy of Machines" that depicted a world dominated by artificial intelligence.

"Boss, you're worrying too much." Du Yongkang seemed to have guessed Jiang Chen's concern as he sighed. "A program is still a program. Even if it is intelligent, it doesn't have emotions and desires. In essence, it will only do things according to the program you compiled. Its intelligence is only a reaction method that you "taught" it in advance. For example, if you punch it, it won't fight back, and there won't be any subjective feelings of harm or hostility. Unless you 'tell it' that if someone punches you, you should punch them back. Only in this way would he be able to retaliate. And self-compilation is an ability that only intermediate artificial intelligence possesses. As for emotions … that is something only advanced artificial intelligence possesses. Before the war, it was only in the conceptual stage. "

Artificial intelligence, at the end of the day, was just a more advanced program.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen finally nodded in relief.

"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. I only care about the results, and you just have to try. Also, one more thing you have to pay attention to is the confidentiality of this operating system! I don't want this phone to fall into someone else's hands, and they'll immediately crack the entire operating system and come up with something similar. "

Confidentiality was the most important task. Jiang Chen didn't want the software he worked so hard to obtain to be turned into open source in a few days. And if the D + + compilation method was exposed, he wouldn't be able to explain it.

It was best to make the program as secure as a metal box, only exchanging data with the outside world, and not accepting any unpacking operations.

Du Yongkang paused for a moment before he patted his chest.

"Boss, don't worry! The program I created is not that easy to crack. Walker Technology's games are all personally packaged by me. Let's not talk about the that was released not long before the war. Until now, no international cracking team has been able to crack the game. As for this level of operating system, it's even easier for me. "

That made sense.

If there was someone in the modern world who could decipher the work of the former technical director of Walker Technology who mastered the technology from 150 years in the future, then he must be a time traveler. Jiang Chen would kill him no matter what. [Ahem, of course, that's impossible.]

"Not bad, if you can do it, it will be a great achievement! Work hard, and I promise you will have meat for every meal! "Jiang Chen laughed as he patted Du Yongkang's shoulder.

Du Yongkang was overjoyed to hear this. Meat for every meal was something he didn't even dare to think about. Du Yongkang, who got the sweet taste, immediately patted his chest and promised. Then, he began to flatter Jiang Chen. No wonder he was a manager. Not only was his technology top-notch, but he was also good at flattering. Jiang Chen didn't dislike people who were quick-witted.

"One last thing, the" Future Technology "logo, you must make it cool. The kind that looks high-tech, but don't be too exaggerated, you know. "

"Yes! Boss! "

This guy almost shouted it out.

Seeing Du Yongkang's confidence, Jiang Chen nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

Du Yongkang, full of joy, left with the two phones. Of course, before he left, he didn't forget to clean up his dishes. He didn't have to carry bricks like a laborer, and he could resume his old job. Such a blissful thing, he didn't dare to imagine for many years.

But today, it was realized.

While he was grateful to Jiang Chen, Du Yongkang also unleashed 120% of his energy. He was determined to make a product that would shock the boss! Although the electronic product was outdated, who wanted the boss to like it? Catering to the boss's taste was the best way to "climb up." He didn't care what Jiang Chen was going to do with it, as long as he completed the boss' task, it would be enough.
