Chapter 359 Technology

Li Zetian continued: "I hope Galaxy Networks can develop a set of pure software products, save network deployment costs, and realize the establishment and transformation of all diskless networks such as Internet cafes, internal enterprise LANs, hotels, and song entertainment industries!!!"

Pure software product?
This is quite difficult.

Tian Shuai is a manager, and he doesn't know much about these things, so he looked at Zhang Han.

Zhang Han frowned slightly, and said after a while: "Maybe we can use the hard disk space of the server to store virtual mapping through the network, that is, virtual disk technology, to develop a set of pure software diskless network solutions! It does not require special hardware The device does not need a dedicated BIOS system, and the diskless workstation can have an adapter similar to IP/iSCSI, and connect to the virtual disk image of the server to generate a virtual local hard disk, so that the diskless workstation is completely like a disk. Work as you stand!"

"In this way, all processing is completed on the workstation system, and the server only provides startup and access services, that is to say, when the software is run on a diskless workstation, the resources consumed (mainly referring to CPU and memory resources) are all workstation resources. Provided by itself!"

Li Zetian nodded secretly, feeling that what Zhang Han said was very similar to the diskless system he knew in his previous life.

"Well, Zhang Hao's idea is very correct, let's design it according to your idea!"

Zhang Hao said, "Mr. Li, Yinhe Network needs the assistance of Sun Microsystems to develop the diskless system!"

"Well, that's true!" Li Zetian laughed, "Go and discuss with them, they will definitely help you. This product will be called 'Galaxy Diskless' from now on! Right now, I am vigorously developing the Internet cafe business, so you guys 'Galaxy Diskless' software needs to be developed as soon as possible."

"Yes!!" Tian Shuai and Zhang Han responded in unison.

Since he came to Yinhe Network Company, Li Zetian naturally wouldn't leave so easily.

A lot of questions about modems, routers, switches followed.

Li Zetian learned that Yinhe Network Company is developing a 1M broadband optical modem.An optical modem is actually a device similar to a baseband modem (digital modem). The difference from the baseband modem is that it is connected to a dedicated optical fiber line, which is an optical signal, and the speed is very fast.

Once the optical modem is successfully developed, the user's Internet speed can reach 1M in the future!

Li Zetian was overjoyed when he heard the news. Today's internet speed is still too slow. One is that it is limited by fiber optic broadband, and the other is that the performance of the modem is not strong enough.However, the most important thing is the latter.

In this era, because Li Zetian acquired ASML and Applied Materials, and invested heavily in research and development, the development speed of the semiconductor industry was beyond imagination, repeatedly breaking Moore's Law, and making large-scale integrated chip technology advance by leaps and bounds.

The optical modem is a device that uses a large-scale integrated chip, with simple circuits, low power consumption, and high reliability.After years of research and development, Yinhe Network Company has overcome difficulties one by one. Right now, as long as the 1M modem is developed, one can watch videos online.Of course, even if it is developed, the price is very expensive, and it will be difficult to popularize it for a while!

However, most of the new technologies are like this. After a few years, the technology has matured, the manufacturing process has improved, the price of spare parts has dropped, and the scale has also increased, so the price will naturally decrease.

After leaving Yinhe Network Company, Li Zetian thought about going to a company not far from here-Qualcomm.

It has been several years since Li Zetian acquired Qualcomm, and he spared no effort to develop CDMA technology with huge sums of money, striving to catch up with GSM.Right now, it should be working.

In addition, when Li Zetian came out of Yinhe Network Company, he suddenly thought of one more thing—WiFi.

Qualcomm is a company engaged in wireless communication, and WiFi is also a type of wireless communication.At present, there are very few companies researching wifi.Li Zetian wants to get the wifi patent.

Needless to say how important wifi is.

……

Qualcomm, in the office of CEO Irving Jacobs.

"Mr. Li, I was about to call you when you came suddenly!" Professor Owen Jacobs smiled.

"What's the matter, Professor Jacobs, have you made a major breakthrough in research and development?" Li Zetian asked with a smile after taking a sip of coffee.

"Yes, CDMA technology is approaching maturity, and I think it can be applied commercially!" Owen Jacobs said.

Li Zetian was slightly taken aback, very surprised.

Professor Jacobs then continued: "I think CDMA can compete with GSM, especially in the US market! The US has a vast land and resources, and the network coverage of GSM base stations is small, which is not applicable, while CDMA base stations can be large. Area coverage, if we launch a CDMA network, there will definitely be support from many telecom companies! From the perspective of network construction costs, CDMA is dominant; from the perspective of call sound effects, CDMA is also dominant!!"

Li Zetian smiled and nodded. What Professor Jacobs said was exactly the reason why he insisted on developing CDMA!
CDMA is more suitable than GSM in the United States, and the bandwidth of CDMA is larger than that of GSM, which is conducive to mobile Internet access.

"In this case, I will notify Sprint to build a CDMA network immediately. As for other telecom companies, you need to discuss it yourself!" Li Zetian said, "Also, Apple, I will go to see their mobile phone development progress later. Where. In short, I will let Apple develop CDMA mobile phones in order to promote CDMA networks."

"Mr. Li, with your help, CDMA network will be very popular soon!!!" Professor Jacobs said excitedly.

Li Zetian smiled slightly: "It's nothing, this is the big boss of Qualcomm! By the way, I'm here this time, and I want to entrust you with a major task!"

"No matter what the task is, we promise to do it beautifully!" Professor Jacobs replied straight away.

Li Zetian smiled and said: "Good job, it will benefit Qualcomm's future development!"

After a pause, Li Zetian continued, "I want Qualcomm to develop wifi."

Li Zetian vaguely remembered that the wifi patent in his previous life was invented by a research institution in Australia, and he applied for a wireless network technology patent in the United States in 1996.It is now 1993. With Qualcomm's strong R&D capabilities, it should be too late to cut it off!

Professor Jacobs was stunned when he heard the words, "Mr. Li, what is wifi?"

Li Zetian was stunned for a moment, thinking that there is no such word yet, so Professor Jacobs naturally doesn't know it.

Therefore, Li Zetian explained: "It is a wireless local area network technology, and I call it wifi for short. I want to use wifi on my laptop. In this way, the laptop does not need a network cable, as long as it is connected to wifi, you can surf the Internet Yes! Perhaps, you can refer to wifi using the ISM2.4GHz public frequency band..."

When Professor Jacobs heard this, he was slightly surprised that Mr. Li could come up with such a wonderful idea, using wireless technology to free the laptop from the network cable, which is simply wonderful!Laptops like this are sure to sell well!

Li Zetian said: "In terms of wireless technology, you are more professional than me, so I won't say much. After listening to the functions of wifi, you probably know how to develop wifi technology!"

Professor Jacobs nodded and said, "Yes, I understand. Compared with CDMA, an ultra-wide-range wireless communication technology, wifi technology is a short-range wireless communication technology."

As he spoke, Professor Jacobs frowned slightly, "Mr. Li, as far as I know, a technology called 'Bluetooth' developed by Ericsson is very similar to the wifi you mentioned. It is also a short-range wireless technology. They also work in the ISM2.4GHz public frequency band! Uh, the wifi you are talking about is not bluetooth..."

After finishing speaking, Professor Jacobs smiled slightly.

Li Zetian was stunned, the two were indeed too similar, no wonder Professor Jacobs made a mistake.

"Huh?" Li Zetian thought for a while, and suddenly thought of some differences between Bluetooth and wifi that he had read on the Internet before, so he said: "Wifi and Bluetooth are indeed very similar, but they are different short-distance wireless communication technologies!"

"Bluetooth uses the FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) method, and the modulation method is GFSK (Gaussian Frequency Shift Keying). It can perform wireless communication of data and voice at the same time. The communication distance is generally 10 meters. It is mainly used in mobile phones, earphones, Printers, keyboards and mice, cameras, etc., are widely used!"

"The LAN protocol used by wifi uses DSSS (Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum) and QPSK or BPSK (Phase Shift Keying), mainly providing wireless Internet access services!"

"Bluetooth requires device matching and can only be connected point-to-point; WIFI is equivalent to a wireless router and can realize one-to-many connections!"

Professor Jacobs immediately understood what Li Zetian said, and couldn't help laughing: "Mr. Li, you said that you are not a professional, and you are so clear about bluetooth and wifi! With the data you provided, we The speed of developing wifi must be very fast!"

"Yeah, that's good!" Li Zetian smiled on the surface, but he was a little embarrassed in his heart. He really didn't know much about wireless technology.

Soon, Li Zetian bid farewell to Professor Jacobs.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, I didn't go to Apple immediately, but returned home.

There are quite a lot of things to do today. First, I went to Galaxy Networks to release the "Galaxy Diskless" project, and then went to Qualcomm to formulate a wifi project.

When I got home, dinner wasn't ready yet.Li Zetian logged on to the Battle.net platform and secretly played "Counter-Strike" for a while.Since the Battle.net platform and "Counter-Strike" were released, during this period, some masters have gradually emerged on the platform. In high-end games, you can often see the existence of some team names.Li Zetian, an "expert", gradually couldn't handle it.

"The back waves of the Yangtze River urge the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach! The other party is better than me with a sniper, what the hell! At least give me some face, I was shot in the head as soon as I went out, and I'm still playing with wool!"

Li Zetian stared at the computer screen, feeling very upset, "Fortunately, no one knows my game ID, otherwise I will be embarrassed to death!"

"Honey, it's time to eat!"

At around 6 o'clock in the evening, Yu Jingqiu came over and asked him to eat, and Li Zetian turned off the computer unhappily.

Yu Jingqiu smiled charmingly and said, "A person of this age still likes to play games like a child~"

Li Zetian stood up, put his arms around her small waist, and said with a smile: "The childlike innocence is still there!"

"Then you don't play with William?" Yu Jingqiu gave Li Zetian a white look.

Li Zetian didn't blush, and said straightforwardly: "William is now a critical moment for studying, so he can't play games!"

……

Early the next morning, the birds on the big tree outside the house chirped, Li Zetian woke up first, and Yu Jingqiu was still asleep on the bed.Looking at Sleeping Beauty with snowy skin and a sexy figure, Li Zetian's heart was moved, especially when he saw the plump mountains that could not be covered by the red bra exposed, white and fleshy, full of elasticity, Li Zetian couldn't help stretching out his hand Knead.

At this time, how could Yu Jingqiu not wake up, she couldn't help breathing heavily.

"Honey, you're awake."

"Can I not wake up?" Yu Jingqiu rolled her eyes at Li Zetian with spring in her eyes.Couples who have been married for many years can know what the other party wants to do with just one look.

After a while, the bedroom suddenly turned upside down, so intense!
"There is a charity gala organized by the LY Charity Foundation tonight, do you want to come?" Yu Jingqiu asked softly while lying in Li Zetian's arms.

"Come on!" Li Zetian scratched Yu Jingqiu's nose lightly, and said, "My wife is the chairman of the LY Charity Foundation, how can I not go?"

Hearing this, Yu Jingqiu was very happy, and kissed Li Zetian on the mouth, "Hehe, I reward you with a kiss!"

"One kiss is not enough!" Li Zetian smiled ambiguously.

"Don't pull it, I just did it, and it's already high in the sun! Don't you have other plans today?"

"Okay, my son will let you go for now!"

After the two washed up and got dressed and went out, the servant asked if breakfast was prepared.

Li Zetian nodded.

When she came to the hall, Dongfang Yuqin was reading the documents, and when she saw the two of them coming, she had a playful smile on her face.

"Mr. Li and his wife woke up so early~ The sun is almost drying their butts!"

Yu Jingqiu blushed slightly, and glared at Dongfang Yuqin.

Li Zetian stepped forward and gently hooked Dongfang Yuqin's chin, "It's your turn tomorrow!"

Said, kissed down.

Since Li Zetian has two women, [-] sleeps with Yu Jingqiu, and [-] sleeps with Dongfang Yuqin. It's hard to be a man!

At home, Dongfang Yuqin and Yu Jingqiu get along very well, like a family.

Breakfast was just bread, fruit, and milk. After breakfast, Yu Jingqiu had to go to the LY Charity Foundation to work. As the chairman, she was busy with affairs.

Li Zetian and Dongfang Yuqin went to Apple.

After arriving at the company, Li Zetian and Dongfang Yuqin went straight to Jobs' office.

"Mr. Li, you are here!" Jobs was slightly startled.

Li Zetian is busy with official duties, and basically rarely comes to the company. Every time he comes, he usually has something to do.

"Well, I have something to tell you." Li Zetian sat down in front of Jobs and continued, "How is the development of the mobile phone project?"

"Almost done!" Jobs replied.

Li Zetian nodded, and immediately explained the situation of Qualcomm.

Jobs said with a smile: "No problem, Apple will fully cooperate, and I am more optimistic about the development of CDMA in the United States!"

"Ok!"
