Rebirth of Northern Technology

November 1991

————————

Although it has not yet reached the end of the year, the Optoelectronics Group has made a special dividend.

In this dividend, the company has given out a total of 5 million in cash. According to the proportion, the school received 1.5 million of it, and the two departments received 250,000.

Cheng Yongxing received a bonus. After detaining 300,000, the remaining 2.5 million was used by him to set up a new talent fund.

There are two reasons for the dividend this time.

The first is to have an explanation to the shareholders, especially the shareholders of the two faculties, who spend a lot of money at the end of the year.

On the other hand, PlanB is ready to start.

————————

In the past year, Optoelectronics has been developing rapidly. With the gradual release of new production line production capacity, the company's efficiency is also steadily improving.

But although I earn more, I spend more.

The rapidly expanding scale of enterprises is actually piled up with money.

The technology of fast running in small steps and the process upgrade policy inevitably produce a lot of waste. Every time the production line is upgraded, a large number of old equipment will be eliminated.

Several related laboratories of the University of Technology are full of equipment that has been eliminated.

Various precision semiconductor equipment is flooded in the laboratories of various departments. Even the laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering can see the lithography machine.

In addition, the LCD project is like a bottomless pit, consuming all the company's income, as well as various loans from the bank.

The company's financial situation is not as good as it looks outside.

The equipment bidding documents for the LCD production line welcomed a warm welcome from semiconductor equipment manufacturers. However, with the company's current financial resources, it is simply unable to pay all the equipment payments in accordance with the agreement.

Delays, arrears, this possibility, for the first time in front of the optoelectronics management. If the company's image is not too good, bankruptcy is a matter of every second.

Therefore, there were disagreements within the company on whether or not to pay dividends.

But Cheng Yongxing insisted on going his own way.

————————

When formulating the blue LED trilogy, a PlanB was also formulated at the same time, that is, if things fail, they will catch up with the IT wave that started in 1995.

Times have changed, and many things have changed. He doesn't need to start all over again and develop software to make the first pot of gold.

But a larger PlanB came forward.

With blue LED, Cheng Yongxing won a Nobel Prize. The full-color project is preparing to cut the TFT-LCD liquid crystal industry.

Is there no chance for the IT industry to cut the bullshit?

Is it true that only by buying Yahoo and Google stocks can you get on the big boat of the IT wave?

The Japanese TFT-LCD industry, an advanced country's national strength, Cheng Yongxing dare to rob, and then rob another bigger, what harm?

Can the American IT industry not be robbed as a whole?

————————

Let’s first analyze why the IT revolution happened in the United States.

The first question is, was the Internet invented by the Americans?

Not!

In March 1989, Tim Berners-Lee, a scientist at CERN, the European Nuclear Research Organization, submitted a project proposal that was a bit ill-advised: the World Wide Web.

That summer, Tim successfully developed the world's first Web server and the first Web client. In December, Tim officially named his invention the World Wide Web (WorldWideWeb), the WWW familiar to the public.

The second question is, does the United States only have the basis for the birth of the IT revolution?

In 1989, countries such as Australia, Germany, Israel, Italy, Japan, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Puerto Rico and the United Kingdom connected to NSFNET. The global networking pattern has basically taken shape.

In other words, all countries in the world have the same network and hardware conditions.

The third question, is the IT revolution guided by the US government?

What is the rise of the Internet wave?

There are several key points here.

Netscape was established in April 1994. In the same year, Microsoft created a Web browser for Windows 95. Two electrical engineering graduate students at Stanford University, Jerry Yang (Jerry Yang) and David Filo, founded Yahoo (Yahoo!).

On August 9, 1995, Netscape's IPO was marked as the starting point of the Internet commercialization boom. The Internet entrepreneurship and investment boom started.

In other words, in 1994, the Internet had blown up.

But when did the US government decide to support Internet technology?

January 25, 1994!

It was only in 1994 that the Clinton administration made a development plan for this project in its "State of the Union Address." Although its goal is to invest 400 billion US dollars on the Internet, its plan is to spend 15 to 20 years!

The IT wave actually happened in 1994. The guidance and planning of the US government can only be said to be just right!

————————

So what is the reason that caused the IT wave to occur in the United States?

Thirty years later, although the hegemon of the Internet industry is still the United States, after nearly 20 years of catching up, China and the United States have formed a dual-power situation in the IT field.

Among the top ten IT companies in the world by revenue, five are in the United States and three are in China.

Why is there such a result?

Is it because China has a big market? Isn't the European market not big?

Is it because of China's strong technology? The contribution of European software engineers to IT is far greater than that of China. Linux and other software all originated in Europe.

History is always repeating itself. The thrones of some other industries have changed, and the corresponding answers have been given.

Why was Beethoven born?

Because the piano was already popular in aristocratic families at that time. In this case, even if there is no Beethoven, there will be Heidolphin.

This is entirely a probability event.

Why does Chinese table tennis win all the gold medals? It is because table tennis has become popular in China! China's population base is here!

The reason why China is able to catch up to the second place in the world in the IT industry is because China has 4 million programmers!

It is 4 million programmers that put China on the status of the second largest IT country.

————————

Using this idea, looking back, why did the IT wave break out in the United States?

Because after years of accumulation, the number of software engineers in the United States has changed from quantitative to qualitative, reaching a threshold.

In 1995, there were nearly 300,000 software developers in the United States. In 2000, this number increased to 680,000.

Why Yahoo, Google, were born in the United States, is because 300,000 programmers are in the United States!

In this case, without Yahoo, there will be Xahoo! This is completely a probability event!

In addition to this group of professional programmers, after more than ten years of cultivation, the United States also owns 37% of the world's computers. These computer users have also become a reserve force in the IT industry.

When the IT tide is at its peak, as long as a person can type, he can apply for a job as a programmer!

Of course, some people will use the number of universities and companies as reasons, but the ideas are actually similar.

Different routes lead to the same goal. There are more universities and more companies. In the end, it comes down to the same result, more programmers.

————————

The root cause has been found, so what should we do?

If there is a way, during 1995-2000, China can train 100,000 or 200,000 programmers. What will this world be like?

100,000 programmers + cheats =?

As for the market?

Is the market for large LED screens in China? Is the TFT-LCD market in China?

Isn’t it possible that the Chinese version of IT is geared towards the world market?

In this IT wave, more than just a batch of Internet giants were born. Many well-known software companies in later generations emerged at this time. For example, the three giants in the EDA industry, as well as a large number of game companies.

In addition, during the IT bubble, a lot of DotCom companies were listed, this piece of Easy cake, why should we let it go?

In the 1990s, the cost of training an undergraduate was about 12,000. Because the price of microcomputers is relatively expensive, the training cost of a programmer will be more expensive, but 20,000 yuan should also be down.

At this price, the cost of training 100,000 programmers is only 2 billion!

The construction cost of TFT-LCD is more than 100 million U.S. dollars!

The market size of the LED industry is hundreds of billions of dollars. The market size of the LCD industry is US$500 billion.

What about the Internet industry?

In front of the Internet, everything is pediatrics!

Even if the big cake of the Internet cannot be taken away, it is enough to meet in half!

China has hao123, but does the US not?

Mp3.com, sold hundreds of millions of dollars?

TOM.COM acquired Hong Kong Telecom (US$28 billion). AOL acquired Time Warner (US$181 billion). These are all typical cases of the transformation of bubbles into entities!

————————

The gameplay of PlanB, the second battlefield, has changed. Cheng Yongxing is not going to end in person.

The Internet is different from LCD and LED. It is not a single product.

Even if it is possible for Yahoo to make the concept of a web portal in advance, it may not be able to win the competition.

Yahoo is not the only portal site, it is the only successful one.

Not to mention that Cheng Yongxingming doesn't understand the algorithms of search engines, even if he does, wouldn't there be more advanced algorithms in this world?

In later generations, claiming to be a more advanced search algorithm than Goggle, I don't know where it is, which one wins in the end?

The core idea of ​​Plan-B is to no longer fall into specific details, but to turn to cultivation and cultivation.

The operation idea of ​​this plan is very close to that of later industrial incubators. Create the conditions for the IT revolution, prepare programmer resources, and let everyone develop freely and survive the fittest by themselves.

Apart from spending money, this plan does not require much brainpower.

Among 100,000 people, without Ma Yun, there will be Niu Yun!

Because it is simply a probability event!

————————

With these 100,000 heavenly soldiers and generals, what kind of general situation cannot be changed?

LED+LCD+IT!

With such a huge power in hand, can't it be changed, the so-called general trend?
