Starting from a top student and marching towards the sea of ​​stars

Chapter 353 A bigger market

On this day, Xingchen Technology released the official version of Longteng System 2.0. While opening up the update permissions for Warwick computers, it also opened up the permissions to many other computer brands.

What amazes everyone most is that Xingchen Technology gives users plenty of room for system selection and updates.

As long as the computer brand still cooperates with Microsoft, users can freely choose between Longteng system and Windows, and users will not be forced to use which system.

As for the issue of system version updates, Xingchen Technology also does not have any mandatory behavior, and all updates will be voluntary.

Even if the user is not satisfied with the updated system version, he can also choose to roll back the system version.

Such an open setting is very rare in the industry.

The reason why Ning Chen made this arrangement is that if users are dissatisfied with the new version of the system, it is not because the users are not used to the new version of the system, but because the new version of the system is not good enough to make users give up their original use. Habit.

Such a system is a failed product in Ning Chen's eyes. Even if users are forced to update, it will only give users a negative experience and increase their disgust towards the brand.

Before the new version of Longteng system was officially released, Ning Chen had already discussed with Mr. Ren of Warwick Company, and finally decided that Warwick Company could now terminate its cooperation with Microsoft.

Originally, Ning Chen did not regard WeiSoft as an irreconcilable opponent. Among the previous Warwick computer brands, Ning Chen and Mr. Ren also chose to accommodate Weisoft's Windows system and let users decide which one to choose. A system.

However, according to statistics in the past few years, users who choose Warwick computers have almost abandoned the Windows system, which also makes the cooperation between Warwick and WeiSoft meaningless.

Under this premise, Warwick Company no longer needs to spend money on the maintenance and research and development of Windows versions of computers and software. It can focus all its energy on the Longteng system.

Of course, this decision has not affected other computer brands. As long as it is not a Warwick brand computer, users can still choose the type of system they want to install.

To everyone's surprise, shortly after the official version of Longteng System 2.0 was released, there was a sudden sales frenzy in the personal computer market.

A large number of customers suddenly chose to buy new phones in a short period of time. The reason for this result was none other than the official release of the new version of the Longteng system.

Because except for Warwick computers, only new computers of various brands can be equipped with the latest version of Longteng system.

Many of these users were those who had previously made reservations for the internal beta version of the Longteng system, but ultimately failed to qualify.

They have been looking forward to the new version of the Dragon System for a long time. Even if they have only read the user experience posted by others on the Internet, they are still willing to give it a try. After all, the temptation of the new version of the Dragon System is too strong.

And when they received the new phone they purchased, the actual use experience also made them feel that their choice was very correct.

"Sure enough, as they said, the performance of the new version of Longteng system is really outstanding. I have just used it for a few hours, and I have decided to abandon the Windows system completely!"

"It's really hard work. I made two reservations for the internal testing of the Longteng system without success. This time I finally waited for the official release of the Longteng system. I didn't expect that you have to queue up to buy a computer now. Doesn't everyone want to buy a new computer now? , and then how about using the latest version of the Dragon System?"

"Fortunately, my previous computer was a Warwick computer, so I could upgrade the system immediately after the new version of the Longteng system was released. I have to say that Xingchen Technology has done a really good job in optimizing the Longteng system, and there were no lags. It feels so silky smooth to use.”

As more and more users use the Longteng system, the share of the Longteng system in the computer system market is slowly and quietly increasing.

If Xingchen Technology was a listed company, the stock price of Xingchen Technology would have skyrocketed during this period of time.

Since the beginning of his business, Ning Chen has adhered to the bottom line of not listing the company. Even though this has caused Ning Chen some difficulties in capital flow, it has allowed Ning Chen to always have all major decision-making rights of the company, and let Xingchen Technology will not be affected by the turbulence of the stock market.

But other companies are different. Those computer companies that cooperate with Xingchen Technology have all been positively affected by the Longteng system, and the company's stock price has risen a lot.

The company most affected by the rise of Longteng system is undoubtedly Microsoft.

The decline in market share of Windows systems is only secondary.

Because the new version of the Longteng system has just been released, there are still only a few computers that can be equipped with the new system. At least as of now, the Windows system is still the most mainstream system on the market.

However, many people are obviously not very optimistic about the future of WeiSoft and Windows systems. At least in Xia Guo's computer market, Windows systems no longer have any advantages.

Given time, Xia's computer market will sooner or later be dominated by Xingchen Technology's Longteng system.

Because of this, WeiSoft's stock price has been severely affected during this period, and the company's total market value has directly shrunk by hundreds of billions of dollars.

Fortunately, WeiSoft had anticipated that such a thing would happen and had made full preparations for it.

Just when everyone thought that Weisoft was going to be like Google and never recover, Weisoft urgently released the latest computer operating system it developed.

In this new operating system, Microsoft has maintained the characteristics of multiple generations of Windows systems, and has learned some of the latest designs of the Dragon system and integrated them into the new Windows system.

In addition to design improvements, Weisoft has also canceled many overbearing terms such as forced updates, putting the right to system updates in the hands of users.

This move by Weisoft has indeed had a good effect, which has caused many users who still use Windows systems to temporarily cancel the idea of ​​switching systems.

At the same time, this also stopped the bleeding of WeSoft's declining stock price. However, because this new system has many similarities with the Longteng system, many netizens wondered whether WeSoft was plagiarizing Longteng. Some designs of the system.

"WeSoft's new version of the Windows system is too similar to the Longteng system. Many functions have serious overlap."

"It seems that Weisoft is really seriously studying the design ingenuity of the Longteng system. This is completely different from the original Guge company. At least in this way, it can be guaranteed that Weisoft will not be immediately taken over by Star Technology. Get rid of it, this is a very stable strategy." "Being able to build a brand new system in such a short period of time is enough to prove WeSoft's system development capabilities. As long as WeSoft is serious about Building a system can definitely give their users a better experience.”

After Ning Chen learned the news, he was a little surprised by Microsoft's reaction. After all, it was very difficult for such a large company to lower its profile and learn from the Longteng system.

And Ning Chen doesn't think it would be an act of plagiarism for Microsoft to optimize its own system by imitating the Longteng system, because if it were really that simple, other companies would have done the same thing long ago.

Being able to convert system functions into code without too many obvious bugs is a manifestation of ability in itself.

But Ning Chen hopes that Xingchen Technology can become the leader, rather than being a technology company that picks up people's wisdom.

As long as Star Technology can continue to optimize and upgrade the Longteng system, no matter how other companies follow suit, they can only remain followers forever.

As the technology of Star Technology improves, it will become increasingly difficult to develop the same functions as the Longteng system.

……

After the new version of the Longteng system successfully opened up a larger market, Ning Chen was not proud of it, but had already begun the next upgrade of the Longteng system.

Ning Chen first found Song Xiyun and asked her about her thoughts.

"Song Xiyun, you have really worked hard during this period. I wonder if you are still interested in continuing to be responsible for the development of the Longteng system?"

Ning Chen was indeed very satisfied with Song Xiyun's work on the project, but Ning Chen didn't know whether Song Xiyun was still willing to continue taking over the work.

But after hearing Ning Chen's question, Song Xiyun said very excitedly:

"Honestly, this job is indeed very challenging. I have always been worried that I would not be qualified for such a responsibility, and I have other tasks to deal with, so I have to squeeze in time to work on the Longteng system. Fortunately, we finally persisted. came down and successfully completed our goal. As long as you can trust me, Ning Chen, of course I am willing to continue this work."

Seeing Song Xiyun showing such an attitude, Ning Chen was very happy. By handing the project over to Song Xiyun, Ning Chen could rest assured to do other work.

"Song Xiyun, we are not in a hurry to develop a new version of the Longteng system immediately. The main work is still on the maintenance and optimization of the system. Now our Longteng system is excellent enough, and the more important task is to make it have The number of users who match its experience..."

It's not that Ning Chen doesn't want to continue to develop a new version of the Longteng system, but this work is not so urgent now. What's more important is to maintain the stability of the Longteng system first and at the same time take a step forward in market share.

"On the other hand, we must also strengthen the research and development of the overseas version of the Dragon System and strive to capture part of the overseas market. In addition to Xia Kingdom, there are more than six billion people in the world, which will be an even bigger market. …”

The previous Xingchen OS system has become popular at home and abroad. Ning Chen hopes that the Longteng system can do the same thing, which will allow Xingchen Technology to advance to a higher level among the world's technology companies.

After listening to these ideas put forward by Ning Chen, Song Xiyun said:

"Ning Chen, I agree with all of your views, but there is one thing I have some disagreements with you about."

"Oh? What is that?" Ning Chen asked in surprise.

"Just...can you please stop giving me so much bonus? I think it's enough for me to get the share I won, but what you gave is obviously much more than that."

Ning Chen didn't expect that Song Xiyun would think that the bonus he gave her would be too much. After all, almost no one would think she had too much money.

"Song Xiyun, you deserve this. If I give you less, I will feel that I have exploited you."

"Then...can I put these bonuses in the Star Technology Foundation? My normal income is enough for me to spend. It is useless to keep too much money. It is better to use it on people who need it. ”

"Of course you have the right to control your own money." Ning Chen said with a smile.

Ning Chen admired Song Xiyun for being so selfless. Although the property donated by Song Xiyun was relatively limited, the two still reached a tacit agreement on this point.

After dealing with the future development issues of the Dragon System, Ning Chen could finally free up his energy to do other things.

"It will take some time for the moon landing project to be able to carry out the first simulated moon landing experiment... Now is the time to prepare for a commercial controllable nuclear fusion project."

It was precisely in order to develop a commercial controllable nuclear fusion project that Ning Chen rushed to upgrade the Longteng system.

Now, although the Longteng system has not helped Ning Chen make too much money, according to this trend, the Longteng system will be a "money tree" for Xingchen Technology in the future.

As long as the Longteng system can develop smoothly in the direction expected by Ning Chen, then the funds required for the commercialization of controllable nuclear fusion projects will not be a big problem.

In the evening, Ning Chen returned to his study to prepare for detailed planning of the controllable nuclear fusion project.

In fact, Ning Chen had already had a rough outline of this project before this. However, because of funding problems with this project, Ning Chen was unable to concentrate on designing the details of the project.

After solving the funding problem, Ning Chen was able to calm down and think about the project.

Following his previous thoughts, Ning Chen quickly filled in the details based on the previous framework.

Ningchen's controllable nuclear fusion solution is very similar to the technical route of the "Tokamak" device, but compared with the traditional "Tokamak" device, Ningchen has added some of its own ideas to it.
