Reboot 2003

Chapter 327 109: Fishing (two-in-one)

"Xiao Chen is my online name. I am the patent holder of a series of Super Smash Bros. gameplay. I am a game producer, but I am also one of the first application developers to enter the mobile Internet platform, so I am very interested in the mobile Internet. I also have some opinions of my own..."

Since the master is not here, we can only rely on our true abilities.

It happens to be a symposium, so let’s talk about something that everyone wants to hear. Of course, it’s true, but what everyone wants to hear is definitely not some empty talk. In short, it has to be a bit of a real person. Generally speaking, this real person is yourself. identity of.

For example, if you are a fresh graduate from university, no one will listen to your rhetoric, but it is different if you are a doctor who has returned from overseas. The next level up is probably a practitioner who has made excellent products himself.

Chen Qin himself has no academic qualifications and is a bit young, but he still wants to go to the next level. He is a front-line pioneer at the forefront of the storm. The audience gradually became serious and sounded more serious than when Mr. Lei from Jinshan just spoke. A lot more serious.

Of course, just reporting the name of the dish is not enough. On the basis of a qualified resume, you still have to say something that everyone would like to hear.

"We are gathered here today probably because of the prospect of mobile Internet. We all know that the largest Internet terminals today are Intel and Microsoft's x86 and Windows. Now more than % of the world's software services are Focus on this platform, but I think smartphones are a terminal worth imagining..."

In short... let's talk about mobile Internet first.

Smartphones alone cannot start an industrial revolution. For the future mobile phone industry, the most important thing is the mobile Internet. When talking about semiconductors to the bosses in the audience, we must start from this direction.

Chen Qin first used this as an introduction. After talking about the platform prospects, he talked about network technology, then market potential, and application potential... Although it was not nutritious, the people below listened very carefully, even the old couple in the back row. He was very serious. Of course, most of them couldn't understand it, but they still listened attentively. Lao Chen also stretched his neck to look at the state of other people around him...

It wasn't until he had finished speaking that someone raised their hand to ask a question——

"I think what Master Xiao Chen said is very good. Just now Master Xiao Chen talked about the application of mobile Internet. I feel that it is similar to what Mr. Lei just said about the software ecology. It seems that Master Xiao Chen is a hero born from a young age, and he is much better than us. Everyone can see it clearly.”

The speaker was a reporter, and everyone laughed politely, but then he reminded: "But compared to these, we mainly want to ask Master Xiao Chen to talk about the prospects of mobile online games. Your "Relics Brawl" seems to have already It hasn’t been officially launched yet, but it’s already very popular. Can you tell us about your experience during the development process and anything else?”

The audience nodded along. After all, if it were someone else, it would be okay to talk about something general, but since it was Master Chen, there was still something everyone really wanted to hear.

But Chen Qin said: "It is possible, but first of all, I am only a middle school student after all. It is difficult to say that my experience has any universally applicable value, and everyone knows that games are a content industry. If it is related to songs or As a private creation like a movie, creation should be a very personal matter, and I don’t think I can draw any conclusion worth mentioning based on my personal experience.”

The reporter was a little disappointed: "Okay..."

"But." Chen Qin added, "I think what everyone wants to know is the 'form of cultural products under new technologies'."

He talked eloquently: "I have some thoughts on this topic. For example, we can look back at history. After the invention of Gutenberg's printing press, it was first used to print indulgences. After the popularity of television, soap operas naturally began to be broadcast. I think this is more Generally speaking, technological progress will definitely promote the emergence of new cultural products, and the two should complement each other."

"Of course what I want to say now is that because there is religion first, and then indulgences can be sold; there is drama first, and then there are movies and TV series. In addition to new technologies, we also need creative tools that support new technologies... "

Someone asked: "What are our creative tools?"

"I wonder if you have heard of the Magic Sword Engine? And our Kaitian OS. They are all open source tools based on the Internet..."

Unknowingly, the topic seemed to have been brought to open source software. The audience did not seem to notice anything unusual. They originally wanted to ask about online games on mobile platforms, but now it seems that they were led astray by Chen Qin. .

But this point of view was very novel. Someone immediately asked: "We all recognize the value of open source software, but we are all commercial companies after all. Master Xiao Chen, what are your opinions on the commercialization of open source software?"

"I think it is a very promising direction, but the purpose of software is to realize its own functions. When talking about the commercial value of open source software, it is better to talk about why people choose open source software." Chen Qindao, "For example, currently we The open source system used in smartphones…”

"Kaitian OS."

"Yes, it is a mobile operating system based on the Linux kernel and Java virtual machine. What do you think are its advantages?"

"compatibility?"

"Yes, I think everyone knows that it should be a system that is known for its compatibility. Relatively speaking, its performance utilization is not perfect. Not only does the JVM virtual machine have a lot of wasted performance, but our Linux kernel has gone through more than ten years of After development, it is now quite bloated..."

This is common sense to practitioners in the future, but bringing it up now makes most people a little suspicious. The buzz of whispers in the venue suddenly rose, and the audience has not forgotten this. This time Master Chen was wronged again. The reporter asked just now: "So Master Chen, what you are saying is that our application layer merchants should give priority to performance utilization?"

He probably still wanted to work hard to correct the problem and get back on track, but Master Xiao Chen said:

"I think this is necessary, but it is not our responsibility. The system must consider compatibility, and we don't have to do it ourselves." Chen Qindao, "We can solve this problem in a lower-level way..."

At this time, everyone finally seriously considered what Chen Qin said. Some people speculated: "So Galaxy Software plans to rewrite the system kernel?"

The reporter also speculated: "Is it necessary to rely on a third-party optimization plan?"

Chen Qindao: "I think it depends on the semiconductor industry. Nowadays, the main development direction of our mobile phone chips is system-level chips. We need hardware manufacturers to customize some chips that are more suitable for Kaitian OS according to our requirements. It must not only have sufficient performance , and it also requires low enough power consumption. I wonder if you have heard of the battle between microkernels and macrokernels in the 90s. At that time, the macrokernels with better compatibility won the victory, but now we do not need to rely on macrokernels. Compatibility is provided, so I think that future ARM and Risc-V architecture core chips should be able to solve the performance defects of our Kaitian system..."

Someone reacted: "But since we have to pursue performance and power consumption, can our Kaitian OS be the optimal solution? After all, our mobile phones are different from personal computers. It cannot be equipped with a special cooling fan. If we want to optimize performance, How can we make up for the shortcomings of the system itself?"

Chen Qindao: "This is the problem I want to talk about. Although our Kaitian OS has poor performance, it may not bring additional power consumption. The performance defects of the JVM are mainly reflected in memory management, but we only need to install more power on the mobile phone." Large memory can solve this problem, and as we all know, memory chips are particularly closely related to advanced processes. I think more advanced chip processes are the fundamental solution to the problem. It will be the road and cornerstone of our future mobile Internet era..."

Originally, I wanted Master Chen to talk about his experience in online games. If that didn't work, you could listen to him talk about open source software. That's what everyone originally thought.

But for some reason, he brought the topic to semiconductors, and what he said really made sense. The venue seemed to be boiling with excitement - semiconductors were a somewhat unfamiliar concept to most of the Chinese Internet businessmen present. Many people couldn't even tell whether what Chen Qin said was correct or not, and if it was just some textbook-like knowledge, then There seems to be nothing to study.

But what Chen Qin said was obviously a judgment closely related to specific business decisions - if what he said was true, wouldn't this be a huge business opportunity? Nowadays, everyone can see that the mobile Internet has great prospects, but how to make money from this trend is the big thing next. Since there is this market demand - although it seems that the technical content is a bit high - it cannot be done from here. Think of a way?

As a result, more and more people began to ask questions. The small symposium that was originally planned to end after Lei Jun finished his speech seemed to be a bit unstoppable. The annual meeting upstairs was ready, and the emcee was waiting nearby. Know when to end.

It wasn't until a foreigner in the first row raised his hand and asked a serious question about system-level chip packaging and testing. Xiao Chen on the stage seemed to be stumped by him. Only then did everyone finally come to their senses. After all, this guy is just a junior high school student, and wasn’t he asked about mobile online games at the beginning?

But Chen Qin didn't give them another chance to bring the topic back -

"In short, this is what I want to say, and my own knowledge is limited. The future of the industry still needs everyone to explore together. Since the annual meeting has begun, why not invite everyone to go upstairs first. Today is the celebration of the fifth anniversary of Galaxy Software. The celebration There will also be some cutting-edge industry trends shared on the forum..."

He was also a guest himself, and for some reason he treated him so naturally, and the audience probably didn't feel any problem. The master of ceremonies answered the question and it was finally over, and we could go upstairs to hold the annual meeting.

The reporters and business representatives below stood up one after another, and then started chatting with Xiao Chen who had stepped down from the stage. Some people were curious and asked him how he knew so much, and some wanted to exchange business cards with Chen Qin.

Of course Chen Qin didn't have a business card, but at this moment Lao Chen squeezed over: "Here, change it for mine!"

It was very tiring before, and Chen Qin only spoke for about twenty minutes.

For some reason, Old Chen was so excited that his neck was red. He came with his old business card to help Chen Qin exchange it with someone else. He also introduced his chest to others: "I am his father. He didn't prepare a business card when he came. Why don’t you come and exchange it for mine!”

Chen Qin saw how proud he was and thought to himself, how could he be so happy?

But Old Chen took his business card, found a pen somewhere, stuck his butt out, and wrote Chen Qin's phone number one by one on the back of the chair next to him. Chen Qin looked at it quite boringly. He quickly stopped him and said, "Dad, forget it for now. You can just call yourself. Besides, there is still tomorrow, and the exchange meeting will officially start tomorrow."

While speaking, the emcee on the stage finished speaking, and the audience in the venue began to leave the venue.

So Chen Qin took his father who was a little too excited and walked out. The situation seemed to be different from the beginning. People kept coming to talk to Chen Qin, and several big bosses came over to shake hands with the father and son politely. Of course, after all, We are familiar with each other. We just complimented each other a few times after meeting, and then made an appointment to talk again tomorrow.

When he got to the back row, another business card was handed over. Old Chen subconsciously accepted it, but it was the woman in sunglasses——

"Mr. Chen, your young master is really powerful."

"Thank you." Old Chen nodded, and the girl in sunglasses added, "You can call me if you need anything in the future."

After saying that, she left. Lao Chen looked at her back strangely, but Chen Qin didn't care too much. He looked to the side and saw Lou Xuemei, Song Ziyun and her mother waiting behind, watching curiously from a distance. He caught Chen Qin's gaze and gave him a thumbs up. His smile looked very happy. He was a little calmer than the fussy old Chen, but it made Chen Qin feel a little embarrassed.

Chen Qin quickly straightened his face and looked to the other side. He saw A Yue watching from behind a group of adults. A Yue still kept applauding and laughed when she saw him. She hid behind the people and watched him happily. Smiling.

But Chen Qin still remembered the business.

After waving to her from a distance, A Yue was stunned for a moment before trotting over.

When she came over and saw Chen Qin raising his arm, Ah Yue hesitated for a moment, but quickly reached out to hold his arm as before.

That was how it was just now, but now things are a little different.

"Ah Yue, this little think tank of yours is really amazing!"

A loud voice came from behind. The two of them turned around and saw that the big bosses who were sitting in the middle of the first row had come out. Liu Chengzhi said this from a distance... Although they also came to talk to Chen Qin when he came down. , and gave him a few compliments, but now that Ah Yue is by his side, she seems to be able to joke around.

A Yue quickly stopped: "Hello, Uncle Liu!"

"Come over and talk later!" Liu Chengzhi invited with a smile, "What Xiao Chen said just now was really good. Come sit down at our table and have a good chat!"

Behind him were the other entrepreneurs and CEOs, as well as the AMD partner. This was considered a formal invitation.

A Yue was very happy and turned to look at Chen Qin. Chen Qin did not agree immediately: "Mr. Liu, what do you want to talk about?"

The reason why I talk so much on stage is because I want to talk to these big bosses.

It's just that he came in his own identity. Those people just wanted to get something out of him and listen to him talk about mobile online games and open source commercialization... How could this be said?

For startups, although ideas may not be valuable, valuable ideas are usually easily leaked. Some startups would rather go hungry than explain their business model to their own venture capital. In this kind of seminar, Of course, you can't say anything just to attract attention.

Fortunately, Chen Qin was more skilled and had just confused all the serious questions. He also took advantage of the situation and mentioned a bunch of semiconductor things, which was like throwing out the bait.

As for now, the fish seems to have taken the bait, but if they want to talk about serious things, Chen Qin is not a fisherman. It is not cost-effective to spend a lot of bait to build a nest just to catch a small fish.

But Liu Chengzhi probably didn't think of anything else, and said with a smile: "We were also talking about the semiconductor thing that Xiao Chen mentioned just now. Since Xiao Chen has so much, we should lend him to give us advice, ah Yue, you shouldn’t have any objections, right?”
