The key is that hh94 doesn't know what compression technology is used, and the same picture file takes up less volume.

The interactive interface looks beautiful and does not take up space.

Although the w system can also be imitated, the volume has increased a lot.

According to this situation, it is estimated that the volume of the system may exceed 2gb after installation is completed.

The problem is that the capacity of high-end hard drives is only 1.7gb at this time.

The mainstream installed capacity market is only 1.2gb.

There is still a market for hard drives worth hundreds of megabytes.

Is the 2GB system sure that isn't it a joke?

Such a large system requires four or five CDs.

This also makes Kern Wilder very worried.

How does hh94 solve these problems?

This is what he cares most about.

So when Kern Wilder heard that Bill Peg asked him to have a meeting again, it was a big deal.

In fact, what I mentioned is a three-party trial of oneself.

Who made me the head of the technical department?

...

Kern Wilder came to the president's office.

Take a deep breath and push the door in.

Several company executives were sitting inside waiting for him.

Bill Peg said: "Wilder! How is it? When will the new system be available?"

Kern Wilder said: "The president is not impatient."

Bill Peg said: "You still said you can't hurry. Don't you know that we have been forced to the edge of the cliff? Now the total installed capacity of hh94 has exceeded 50 million. New capacity has exceeded 30 million. In another two months, the installed capacity will exceed our total installed capacity. You still say you are not in a hurry! Why do you think it's in a hurry? Are you worried that you will wait for me to jump out of this building?

How did you promise me at the beginning? You promised that as long as there were more R&D personnel, you promised that w4.0 would be completed this year. Now you told me again that you would not make me anxious.

Are you playing tricks on me? Or do you think I'm in a bad mood and need you to be a comedian?"

Kern Wilder smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. President! Actually, I am also anxious, and it is not even worse than your situation. I have no choice. The long language is more intelligent and streamlined than our C. If we want to achieve other people's functions, we must use more code to solve it.

But you know that the more code the larger the size.

Our current system size has exceeded 2gb.

Now the high-end hard drive is only 1.7gb.

Do you think this works with the 2GB system?”

"Are you kidding me? Is the 2gb system for humans?"

"I'm not kidding. I'm talking about facts. Didn't you let our system and facts refer to the hh94 standard? I designed it according to other people's standards. The finished product is what it is now."

"How can he compress the system so small? You won't tell me that our world's most powerful elite team research department is not as good as a small workshop in China!"

"President. It's not that we are not as good as others, but that their design route is completely different from ours. They use long language, and we use classic languages ​​and c.

The way people solve problems is more intelligent and fragmented than us. There is no need to think about it in many places. If we want to solve them, we have to use cumbersome code to explain them. Although they can explain their functions in classic language, they cannot explain their underlying logic. This is the root of the problem.

I suspect that all their data is explained in code.

Otherwise, they would not have been able to install the compression packages with only more than 100 megabytes while maintaining such powerful functions, and only more than 300 megabytes of all the decompression and installation.

This is completely unreasonable.”

"That's right, your skills are not good. How can others do it? Why can't you do it? Organize everyone to have a meeting and brainstorm! Increase the bonus, and I can give shares to anyone who can solve this problem."

"We have opened it countless times. There have been several times when we almost started fighting. But the final unified conclusion is that hh94 is a system independent of a separate kernel. That is, there is an independent kernel below hh94. This kernel has the final interpretation of the long language. The author can add various explanations to this kernel, as long as it is beneficial to the operating efficiency of hh94.

To put it bluntly, hh94 is a virtual machine on a virtual machine.

The problem now is that if we don’t understand how the other party’s kernel source code is designed, we have no way to achieve the same ability as the other party.

At least I won’t even think about it within a few years.

If the president insists on releasing a new version, he can only wait for the hard disk capacity to iterate before talking about it.

According to the current development speed of hard disks, it should be around 1998 and 1999. We can release a system that is close to the hh94 level."

"What are you kidding internationally! Our company went bankrupt in 1999. By then, the installed capacity of hh94 will exceed 100 million units, do you know?" Bill Peg almost got angry when he heard this.

"The key is that our current technology cannot achieve as many functions as you want. The current few choices, one is castrated, shrinking, skinless, but it can deceive ordinary users and cannot deceive those professional users, which may cause big trouble in the end. Second, according to the development plan of w4.0, continue to launch w4.0, stabilize the existing market, ensure the update rate, and then continue to optimize the new system, wait for the hard disk iteration, and then launch a large-scale counterattack. Third, continue to endure.

In fact, the development prospects of hh94 are now very clear, and they cannot continue to suck blood from our country. Although the civil market is still the world of hh94, the commercial market and official market are still dominated by our system.

As long as we can maintain high quality as always, we believe that we will have a chance to counterattack sooner or later.”

Bill Peg was silent for a while... and said, "What about the virtual machine?"

Kern Wilder said: "The new version of the virtual machine can run, but the stability is poor because we don't know enough about the long language. I suggest not launching virtual machines now, because this will affect the user experience and our reputation. Maybe word of mouth was not important before, but now word of mouth is very important."

Bill Peg said: "Then according to your opinion, we can only be dealt with by others, we can only be dealt with? We can't resist?"

Kern Wilder said: "It's all right now. At worst, let's adjust the code and interfaces so that their virtual machines cannot be compatible with our new system. Isn't it enough to not let them continue to do it?"

The office is also very quiet.

No one is talking anymore.

It seems that the situation is worse than expected.

Originally, these people were very confident in the technical ability of microcomputing, but in their opinion it was nothing more than a matter of time. But as time continued, their previous confidence gradually fell to the bottom.
Chapter completed!
