Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 576 Purchasing Software
Duan Yun intends to buy some usable software here, and after switching to a few shops, he has indeed gained something.

The software here is basically a copy of foreign software companies. To put it bluntly, it is a pirated version with a complete range of categories, but the price is still a bit high for ordinary salaried grassroots.

Although the price of these pirated software is a bit high, there is still an endless stream of people who buy it. After all, people who can afford computers these days can naturally afford this kind of pirated software.

In addition, Duan Yun also found that many companies in Zhongguancun were developing a Chinese character system suitable for the Chinese market. In fact, many people in China were already engaged in this research and development at that time, including Shi Yuzhu and others who later went to Shenzhen to get a good reputation. The application principle and process of Ren's Chinese character system are similar, and it is vividly called "Han Card". It can be said that it is the earliest domestically developed software independently developed in China.

Duan Yun understands English and is familiar with C language, so even without a Chinese system, it can operate computers proficiently, but for the vast majority of personal computer users in China, it is very difficult to operate a computer without a Chinese system, so The sales volume of these Chinese cards sold in Zhongguancun is very good.

Of course, Liu Chuanzhi, the founder of Lenovo Group, persuaded Ni Guangnan to join his company and launched the "Associative Chinese Character System", and this Lenovo Chinese card sold more than 300 million that year, which shows the market prospect of Sinicization software at that time How big it is.

However, at the end of 83, Lenovo Group had not yet been established. Duan Yun did not find a good Sinicization system after looking around. He just bought some pirated software, and his trip to Zhongguancun was not in vain.

As for the so-called China Software Association that Duan Yun joined before, it is actually located in an old house at the interface of Zhongguancun.

At the beginning, Duan Yun thought that the China Software Association was a big organization, at least it should have its own office building, and a large number of editorial staff. However, after Duan Yun came to the "Software Association", he saw the door A sign was hung, and after entering, the first floor was a counter selling computer consumables and software. After going to the office of the Software Association on the second floor, I found that the entrance door on the second floor was locked. I asked the boss downstairs to find out that the Software Association Usually, few people come here, and only when the end of the month is approaching, people will come here to work, collect, edit, print and mail software, and the editor-in-chief of the Software Association is said to be the boss of a shop in Zhongguancun, so he basically doesn't come here.

When Duan Yun was disappointed, he felt a little funny. It seems that the so-called Software Association is actually a semi-amateur organization. Everyone is busy making money, and running a magazine is just their part-time job.

However, Duan Yun feels that the membership fee he paid is still worth it. In Zhongguancun, a place full of new domestic and foreign software products, Duan Yun, who is far away in Daxing, can also learn about relevant software information through the magazines mailed by this association. A little help to Duan Yun is still quite big.

When he left Zhongguancun, Duan Yun's bag was already filled with all kinds of new software he bought, including office software, data processing, and the latest version of CAD software. It can be said that he has gained a lot.

At noon, Duan Yun found a small restaurant in BJ and had a casual meal. In the afternoon, he came to Wangfujing, where he bought some related reference books at the Xinhua Bookstore.

Duan Yun himself does not need these reference books. With his technical attainments in his previous life, many technical books in this era have become obsolete for him. The reason why Duan Yun bought these books is mainly for Cao Dongleizi and the others in the workshop. I bought it so that they can learn more about electronic technology. The other several new electronic technology reference books were bought for Qin Hai, the chief engineer of the Second Electronics Factory. Duan Yun knew that this person was a technical fanatic and liked it very much. Reading, so Duan Yun bought a few books for him, which can be regarded as cultivating the friendship between the two.

After coming out of Xinhua Bookstore, Duan Yun bought some pastries and candies, which were all for his sister Duan Fang and fiancee Cheng Qingyan. Girls always have no resistance to snacks.

It wasn't until after four o'clock in the afternoon that Duan Yun got on the bus and returned to his home in Ruiyang.

"I'm back." Ruiyang, who was scraping fish scales by the faucet in the yard at this time, greeted Duan Yun with a smile when he saw Duan Yun came back.

"This is... making fish?" Seeing this, Duan Yun immediately put the things in his hands into the house, then rolled up his sleeves and walked to Ruiyang, saying, "I'm very good at making fish, and I'll give it to you tonight." Show your hand."

"No need, you are a distinguished guest of our house, and it's not your turn to cook." Ruiyang obviously didn't want Duan Yun to get fishy on his hands, and motioned him to enter the house and wait for dinner.

In fact, when Ruiyang was living alone in Daxing, he basically didn't cook with fire, at most he cooked some dried noodles, and ate in the canteen of his unit most of the time.

But this time it is rare to go home, Ruiyang is very diligent in cleaning up the house and cooking. In fact, he did this to relieve his guilt towards his wife. After all, Ruiyang has been working in other places for the past few years, and he rarely does it. A husband's duty.

Duan Yu saw that he couldn't get in, so he had no choice but to give up. He walked into the room and started tidying up. The books, software and pastries he bought today were carefully wrapped and put in his suitcase.

After a while, Ruiyang's wife and daughter also returned home from school.

"Hello, Auntie!" Seeing Ruiyang's wife entering the yard on a Phoenix bicycle, Duan Yun hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.

"Xiao Duan, congratulations. I heard from my family that the products of your factory won the national gold medal. It's really amazing that you can do so much at such a young age!" Ruiyang's wife said to Duan Yun with a smile.

"I'm just lucky..." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"Don't be humble. When I was having dinner at noon, my dad praised you severely, saying that a talent like you is rare in the whole country. It's the first time I've heard that My dad is so flattering." Ruixue, who was following her mother, also interjected at this time.

"Hehe, how can I be so good, your father thinks too highly of me." Duan Yun said with a smile.

"Excessive modesty is pride!" Rui Xue said to Duan Yun with a small mouth.

"Okay, hurry up and do your homework." Ruiyang said to her daughter.

"I finished the homework at school." Ruixue took off the canvas schoolbag with the five-pointed star printed on it, then walked to the mirror, picked up a comb, and combed the somewhat messy bangs on her forehead , and then pulled off the rubber band on the head and tied the ponytail again.
