Fang Tian looked at the screen and said, "Phoenix is the mythical bird in our country's legends. It's an auspicious bird and represents good fortune!"
"Phoenix, I hope it can bring us good fortune!"
It sounded reasonable, but …
Lin Zhendong said, "You used Phoenix as the processor's name. There should be other reasons, right?"
Fang Tian nodded. "Phoenix represents Yin and Yang, which is the two modes!"
"In ancient times, someone summed up the laws of heaven and earth. Infinity gives birth to Taiji, Taiji gives birth to Yin and Yang, Yin and Yang give birth to the four phases, the four phases give birth to the eight trigrams, and the eight trigrams give birth to all things."
"This world, or rather, this universe, is formed by Yin and Yang. There are men and women, heaven and earth, and Yin and Yang give birth to all things in the universe!"
"Back to our processor, it processes the system's binary data. No matter how powerful the application is or how complex the logic is, it evolved from binary and formed the system's ecology!"
Everyone was amazed. They did not expect the processor's name to have such deep meaning!
Combining the mythical bird of China with the processor!
Combining the Phoenix's Yin and Yang with binary!
"What do you think?" Fang Tian looked at them with a smile.
Lin Zhendong snapped his fingers. "I agree. There's nothing better than this!"
"Yeah, I also think this name is awesome!" The engineer clapped his hands.
"CEO Fang, it's not that I want to flatter you, but your idea is great!" Another old engineer praised.
Fang Tian said, "Our processor is not only for our countrymen to use. It's more important to promote it to the world and become the world's most popular processor."
"Phoenix, this name, in the West, means' immortal bird '."
"Immortal bird, in legends, is a mythical bird that can be reborn and will never die."
"It's a very suitable name for the processor. It won't die!"
In other words, this name, not only in China, but also abroad, would be very popular. It would be convenient to promote it to the world!
Lin Zhendong said, "What model should we change the Phoenix processor to?"
Fang Tian cleared his throat and the waiter brought over a teacup.
He took a sip of tea. "The model shouldn't be too complicated. Phoenix 510 is best!"
When it came to naming products, he had never liked complicated numbers in English. For example, the long string of model names for home appliances would make it hard for people to remember.
The more inexperienced he was, the easier it was for him to be remembered.
Those noob users who didn't like to mess around with electronic products would know that this was the first generation of Phoenix when they saw the name.
The first generation of Phoenix processors would be released in June, together with the upcoming operating system of Soft cloud, which would be released in Beijing.
"When are you going to Beijing?" Lin Zhendong asked with concern.
Fang Tian thought for a moment. "I'll go there next week."
"Okay, I'll wait for you in the capital." Lin Zhendong nodded happily.
Then, he packed his luggage, got into Fang Tian's car, and went to the airport.
"See you in Beijing!" Lin Zhendong, who was carrying a black backpack, waved to Fang Tian.
"See you in Beijing!" Fang Tian waved.
Lin Zhendong then turned around and walked into the airport.
Half an hour later, Fang Tian drove to Cloud Building.
This was another super project of Soft cloud — the operating system!
The operating system was the dream of countless IT professionals. It was also the dream of many Chinese people. But to make an operating system successful, the difficulty was much higher than a processor!
In Fang Tian's previous life, no company could make an operating system successful.
The only company in the world that could make an operating system successful was the US. Microsoft's Windows system dominated the computer world, and mobile operating systems were dominated by Apple's iOs and Google's Android.
It was very difficult for domestic companies to make a breakthrough, and there was almost no possibility of success.
First, the technical difficulty was high. Microsoft and Google had spent many years optimizing their operating systems to achieve their current performance. How could a new company's operating system be better than theirs?
Even if it was possible, they would still be suspected of plagiarism.
Second, the investment was huge. Developing an operating system would cost billions to tens of billions of USD. How many companies had the funds to invest?
Third, and the most important reason, even if the operating system was developed, without a complete application ecosystem, the operating system was just a desert. A desert. How can you attract users to move over?
Fang Tian walked into the building, and Gao Yun, who was wearing a grey suit, welcomed him with a smile and shook hands with him.
Gao Yun was one of the five founding generals of Soft cloud empire. He was in charge of the development of operating systems. He was the only software engineer in the team who had reached the level of a scientist.
Both of them walked into the research lab.
There was a computer on the table, and this computer was running the operating system developed by Soft cloud technology.
Fang Tian walked over and sat down. From booting up the computer, to entering the desktop, to running various applications, the whole experience was excellent!
Soft cloud's operating system was different from Microsoft's Windows system. It was a cross-platform operating system.
From the day they decided to develop the operating system, Fang Tian had asked the team to develop a cross-platform operating system. It could not only run on computers, but also on mobile phones, tablets, etc.
Microsoft's operating system was very successful, but it was a complete failure in mobile operating system. They did not grasp the opportunity to set up the operating system in advance.
Fang Tian would never make such a mistake and let Soft cloud set up the operating system in advance.
Although smartphones were not born in this world at this time, it was only four years since Apple released the first generation of touchscreen phones in 2007.
Now, by setting up the operating system in advance, they could make the world's first smart touch device before Apple.
Gao Yun stood beside Feng Yu, and he was a little worried. "Now Microsoft's Windows system has a high market share in the world. Do we still have a chance with Soft cloud's operating system?"
"Yes." Fang Tian said with certainty. "Computers are very popular in developed countries, but in China, computers have just started to enter the homes of ordinary people. Many users are gradually switching from internet cafes to home computers. This is a huge market, and our operating system will succeed."
"Even if the PC operating system fails, there is still the mobile operating system. I am 100% confident that this operating system can become the world's first!"
Gao Yun had to admire the foresight of the founder of Soft cloud!
The success or failure of the operating system depended on the application ecosystem. In this aspect, Soft cloud had been completely built.
However, it was not enough for an operating system to rely on its own applications to maintain the ecosystem. The key was to attract developers from all over the country and even the world to support this system.
For this reason, a developer conference would be held on the day of the operating system's release!
As for the name of the operating system, it would be announced on the same day.
