mp3 will be eliminated in a few years. Next, it will be a world of smartphones. If you don’t take the opportunity to create a mobile operating system, it would be a waste of talent. However, none of the so-called best bats in China can make a mobile operating system. You can imagine how difficult it is.

Is it really that China lacks programming talents? Then Ah San is full of coders everywhere, why can't they make operating systems? The major operating systems that are popular around the world are almost all from the United States.

Why?

Liu Chen once thought deeply about this issue, which is definitely not a matter of talent, so what exactly is it?

Wang Cong immediately patted his chest and said, "Yes, senior, I dare not say anything else. I still write thousands of lines of code casually. I started playing the operating system in junior high school."

Liu Chen had to sigh that these students from good backgrounds have great vision and contact, and he can also program, but he is not very good at it. Later, when he developed and produced % without % error, this area was indeed a big weakness.

He didn't have much contact with others and couldn't find anyone to help. He didn't impress him much when he gave him a computer. This guy was a programming genius, which made him moved.

Wang Cong said that he might be the first talent he needed to find. He was determined to take the exam and asked: "It seems that you are familiar with programming and operating systems. Do I think we need an independent operating system?"

"It's necessary, absolutely necessary!" Speaking of the system, Wang Cong's eyes lit up and he opened his mouth. "In the it industry, the operating system can be regarded as the jewel in the crown. It controls the connection between hardware and application software and also controls all behaviors of the device."

Liu Chen thought about it, after competing for survival of the fittest, it seemed that the mobile operating systems that survived were iOS and Android, and iOS was for Apple's hardware and mobile phone services. Android is completely free, most of which mobile phone manufacturers can use it. At a glance, it seems that the operating system is irrelevant. Google has also invested a lot of time and money in research and development in a stupid way.

Then, is this really the case?

Liu Chenben also thought so, but after a survey, he found that this was not the case at all.

Liu Chen was surprised that Wang Cong had such experience and encouraged him: "Then let's continue talking about it."

"This is a field of world-class enterprises. As the saying goes: those who have the operating system win the world. Microsoft has become the world's most valuable technology company by relying on its monopoly on the PC operating system. With the operating system, the dragon-slaying knife, it can be invincible."

"Hmm, continue."

"After ibm handed over the PC operating system to Microsoft, I soon realized something was wrong. I spent a lot of money to develop Os/2 to try to win a game but failed, and I have lost my dominance in the PC industry forever."

A few years later, the reason why Nokia and Nim fell behind in the fierce competition in the mobile phone industry was largely due to the fact that their original mobile phone operating system lost to iOS and Android in the competition.

Thinking of this, Liu Chen nodded.

Tang Xiao grabbed his arm, and Wang Cong couldn't control his excitement, his face turned red, and he shouted: "Without an operating system, we in China cannot produce a truly world-class enterprise. We can do hardware, application software, and Internet services. We can indeed make a company with a market value of US$20 billion, but we can definitely not produce a company with a market value of US$100 billion or even US$200 billion."

"Since we absolutely need it, why can't we in China do it? Have you ever thought about this question?" Liu Chen asked.

Wang Cong scratched his head, "This...this...I haven't thought about it carefully."

Seeing that Liu Chen was indeed interested in this, Tang Xiao also spoke enthusiastically and said, "We lack basic R&D strength. The United States has formed a complete basic R&D industry chain of [government-university-enterprise]. The government sets the general direction, universities do basic research, and enterprises industrialize it. Our government directly directs universities and enterprises to industrialize it, but does not study the general direction of the future. The whole society is in extreme impetuousness and short-sightedness, and has spent a lot of money on wrong basic R&D, and has lost the opportunity to catch up."

"Oh, you have such a deep understanding, too?"

Liu Chen was really shocked. It can be seen that these two families have very good conditions and have a far higher vision than ordinary people.

Tang Xiao blushed and said, "I... I have also read some books on the development of American education and technology. In terms of investment and treatment of R&D personnel, the United States is indeed much better than the domestic environment. This is also the reason why parents want us to study abroad."

It’s no wonder that talents like this will go abroad in the future. Liu Chen didn’t feel any pain in his heart, his face was calm, and he said, “You said it well, continue to analyze.”

"Like the color TV industry, when others are developing LCD, we are complacent about becoming the boss of CRT. After they make LCD, we quickly chased them, and they started to do LEDs again, and they can never catch up and are always passive."

"Back to the operating system, since we have made no achievements in the operating system before and have no accumulation, how can we make a competitive operating system out of thin air? You know, Microsoft, Apple, and Google have accumulated over the years of PC operating systems. If our predecessors don't plant trees, our descendants want to enjoy the cool air. How can there be so many good things in the world?"

Liu Chen felt nervous. It seemed that developing an operating system was much more difficult than he thought. Even if he knew it first, it was still unknown whether he could make it. He couldn't help but feel dazed.

Wang Cong also said: "Tang Xiao just said one thing, and there is another very important point. We lack high-end technical talents. There are often programmers in our country, but real experts cannot be found. Chinese people value real profit but rather ideals. The operating system requires a long time of investment, and the results are too slow. Therefore, domestic companies are generally unwilling to spend their efforts to do such thankless things."

"This has also brought a very bad atmosphere to programmers, which makes them generally unwilling to study basic software, but choose application software that can make a name for themselves and get rich faster. In today's Internet industry, everyone is talking about product managers, but no one is talking about software architects. In fact, in the United States, software architects are very high-end and popular positions. My ideal is to be a software architect in the United States."

I went to the United States again, Liu Chen felt heartbroken. All such talents went to the United States. Why? Isn’t it just that there is no need for software architects in China, and I can’t get a corresponding high salary. Who still studies the system architecture? Isn’t it easier to develop electric donkeys, Thunder, and QQ based on Indos? As long as the number of users grows wildly, Isn’t it profitable to invest and go public?

Fishing in the dry pond!
