No regrets ninety-two

Chapter 571 Open a Window
For Wu Xiaozheng, the reason why he came to the future Chef Wu Building this afternoon was not only to make a simple plan for the construction of the building, but also to let the two programmers get involved.

It takes a bit of skill to get people hooked.

"I would like to ask, if I want to install internet cables in every room and even every location in this building, can the two of you do this job?"

Zhong Mingyu was a little puzzled. Is it necessary to connect the Internet cable in every room and every location?
The current him, of course, can't imagine that in a few years, the computer has become a very popular office tool, and it will even develop into an indispensable office tool.

The shy Chen Jiayao didn't think so much.

As soon as he asked about his major, he blurted out: "This is simple. As long as you are a computer major and have a little common sense, you can easily handle it."

Of course Wu Xiaozheng knew that this was not difficult, he just needed to set up the line in advance.

What he wants is for two people to take this opportunity.

"That's fine, then I'll leave this matter to you two. When the building is designed, you should remember to make a wiring plan and arrange a special room for the computer room."

"Oh, good." Chen Jiayao replied simply.

Zhong Mingyu started to talk too much: "Pull the network cable at every location? You don't want everyone to be equipped with a computer, do you?"

He felt that Wu Xiaozheng's plan was a panic because he had too much money.

"It's possible, think about it, if you're on the first floor and I'm on the tenth floor, and you need to ask me for something, you don't have to run upstairs, but just use your computer to send me a message, wouldn't it be great?"

Zhong Mingyu froze for a few seconds.

He felt that Wu Xiaozheng's idea was very good, but just because of this, he was really panicking with money.

Chen Jiayao didn't think much of it.

He thought for a while following Wu Xiaozheng's thinking, and suddenly said: "Hey, it seems that it is not difficult to do this!"

This programmer student, he didn't even think about realizing this, and how much it would cost, he thought about the possibility of technology realization.

Obviously, he is more programmer than Zhong Mingyu.

"So, when you finish the development of the food ordering system and the construction of this building, I will arrange an office for you here, and then arrange a room for each person upstairs, and you will develop this office automation system here. Isn't it interesting?"

If you want to convince programmers, the best way is not to talk about treatment and conditions with them, but to arrange challenging tasks for them.

If there are no difficult and challenging tasks, no matter how much money and how good the salary is, it may not be able to keep the programmer.

For a real programmer, their pursuit is to make their technology more and more powerful in various difficult task challenges, and to stand at the forefront of the entire industry's technology.

Wu Xiaozheng has seen many such examples in his previous life.

Sure enough, as soon as Wu Xiaozheng finished speaking, the eyes of the two programmers lit up immediately.

This is definitely a challenging task.

The office automation system, also called the OA system, is a set of things that every company is using in later generations.

But in this day and age, it is definitely a new concept.

Even in foreign countries, although research and application in this area have begun, more of them are used to realize basic office data management (such as file management, file management, etc.), but generally lack the most needed collaboration support and document management in the office process. data processing etc.

The gameplay like Wu Xiaozheng said has not yet appeared in the whole world.

How to achieve it requires a lot of brains.

The two programmers just got into it.

They began to look forward to the construction of this building.

Because once it is built, there will be their own independent office, their own suite, and most importantly, a very challenging task.

Sure enough, as soon as they returned to Wu Xiaozheng's office, the two programmers couldn't wait to grab Wu Xiaozheng, wanting to talk to him about automatic office work.

Wu Xiaozheng decided to open a window for them.

In this era when the Internet has not yet started to rise in China, it is still too early to talk to them about the complete OA system thinking, but Wu Xiaozheng has a way to talk to them about it.

"Have you heard of the e-mail that is becoming popular abroad?"

The two nodded.

E-mail is something that was invented in the 70s, but it only took off in the 80s.

In the 70s, the Arpanet network was used at that time, and there were too few people using it, and the speed of the network was only one-twentieth of the standard speed of 56Kbps.

Limited by the speed of the network, users at that time could only send some short messages, and it was impossible to imagine sending a large number of photos like that.

By the mid-80s, with the rise of personal computers, e-mail began to spread widely among foreign computer fans and college students.

As computer professionals, the two programmers are still very familiar with e-mail.

"For example, if we build an email system within the company, and the design plan of Chef Wu's building comes out, the designer wants all of Chef Wu's senior management to come up with suggestions for revisions to this design plan."

"According to the conventional method, the designer needs to take a drawing and visit the door one by one. This is not only time-consuming, but other people may not necessarily know other people's revision opinions, so there will be many repeated opinions, which is even more difficult. New ideas arise because of being inspired by other people’s opinions.”

"But what if the designer sends an email to everyone involved?"

Wu Xiaozheng's question immediately stimulated the thinking of the two programmers.

It is not too difficult to network and build a mail system within the company, there are ready-made solutions.

Indeed, regarding the problem just now, it would be much easier to solve it by email.

"If we add some modifications to this email system, such as an email, specifying that someone must give a reply, and someone must give an opinion, the entire operation process of this email will not be considered complete until the whole matter is completely resolved. .”

"In this way, it becomes a simple collaborative office."

"If this email is added with approval options such as agreeing and objecting, or adding options such as voting and statistics, this kind of collaborative office will be upgraded again. The more functions that can meet daily office needs, the more this automatic office system will be. It will mature and have more application value."

Zhong Mingyu and Chen Jiayao's eyes lit up again.

Wu Xiaozheng's words really seemed to open a window for them, allowing them to see a wonderful application of computer technology.

This is a brand new application with huge room for development.
