Chapter 1162 Great Genius!

"It's amazing!"

When Bill Gates opened his eyes, he couldn't help but give Yin Jun two thumbs up: "Mr. Yin, you are the most powerful genius I have ever seen! If you come to our software industry, especially this kind of window system Well, I’m afraid no one can compete with you!!”

"That's different. I'm just thinking about it. How to implement it and how to produce it depends on you people who really understand the technology." After Yin Jun was modest, he then asked, "Look at this. When will the WINDOWS window system be ready?"

"It's definitely not possible now." Bill Gates said without hesitation, "As you know, at the beginning of this year, Intel released the 80286 chip, which runs in 16-bit mode and can compete with IBM, Motorola and others. The company's chips are comparable and have the greatest development potential. However, with the computing power of this chip, we can only build MS-DOS systems, not the WINDOWS window system you described at the beginning.

But we only have some vague concepts about the DOS system now, which are far inferior to your detailed description and functional planning of the DOS system in the future. Once the DOS system we develop can do what you said, I believe that Microsoft's operating system will be unique in the world and no one can surpass it!

In particular, regarding the current 286 chip's insufficient 16M cache memory, you proposed adding support for external extended memory mode in system control. If this solution is successful, we will have more runnable memory, thereby improving the server chip's support for the operating system. This will be a revolutionary breakthrough! "

Yin Jun nodded slightly.

He knew about Intel's 286 chip. It was the beginning of change, the beginning of mankind entering the software era, and the beginning of mankind's dreams taking wings.

Starting from 286, to 386, 486, and all the way to the peak 586 chip, the computer equipped in China is the well-known 586. This is already equipped with a WIN95 chip. It can even be used with WIN98, and the effect is very good. .

Every step of the development of these chips is a leap. For example, the 80386 chip three years later directly used the 32-bit operating mode, which suddenly opened the door to victory for Intel, making their technical capabilities and chips In terms of capabilities, it surpassed Siemens, IBM, Motorola and other companies in one fell swoop, becoming the undisputed number one chip giant in the world.

It was also thanks to Intel 286 and 386, high-speed data processing chips, that Microsoft's MS-DOS system quickly entered the status quo. As soon as the WIN3.1 system was released in 1991, millions of copies were sold in two months. The real Microsoft company brought huge benefits, allowing them to enter the channel of healthy development, and then defeated all competitors along the way, achieving the great cause of being the world's number one.

But even if it is a DOS system, compared with the WINDOWS system, the difference is only in the running speed and visual effects. Its effectiveness is still there from the beginning.

For example, the use of multi-window running mode, free switching of program modes, mouse control keys, taskbar differentiation, drivers and virtual memory, etc., all started with the DOS system.

After Yin Jun first described the WINDOWS system, he then wrote out the various functions of the MS-DOS system in a more practical way. This is also the reason why Bill Gates was so excited that he lost his temper.

More importantly, the current 286 chip memory is seriously insufficient, only 16MB.

Not to mention 286, even 386 will not work.

Of course, even the current 286 chip and 16MB of memory have already broken through the limits of human-created chips and reached a new level.

This is a good thing for ordinary computer users, but for software developers like Microsoft, especially Microsoft who wants to build an operating system, it is far from enough.

The development of computers has always been like this.

The affordability and technical capabilities of hardware limit the breakthrough capabilities of software.

Only when hardware with sufficient capacity to carry the operation of software appears, then computer technology and software will further advance by leaps and bounds.

This is also the reason why after Intel dual-core chips that meet WINXP began to appear, in just over ten years, computer software and mobile terminal software will develop to a great extent that exceeds the hundredfold achievements in the past decades!

Yin Jun directly asked Bill Gates to solve his problem by taking the improvement plan of WIN2.0 at the end of 1987 - adding external extended memory mode.

In fact, this method is very simple to say.

It is through the development of corresponding software programs that the memory sticks are compatible and can be inserted into the card slot and used together. Anyone who has ever assembled a computer by himself knows this operation and is not surprised at all.

But in this era, such an approach has never been done before, it is unprecedented, and it is undoubtedly a "brain-opening" approach.

But who is Bill Gates?

This is the overlord of the future computer world, with the most outstanding vision and ideas.

He could immediately see that this method of expanding the foreign memory mode was very feasible when implemented in detail.

Not only this, many of the processing methods, programming patterns, etc. mentioned by Yin Jun in the document are very forward-looking, making Bill Gates seem to think that Yin Jun seems to have developed such a window software operation himself. The system has developed these things and has been used many times by myself.

Such an idea that relies solely on one's own imagination and relies on the love of computers to continuously improve and work hard can only be achieved by geniuses!

Now Bill Gates finally understands why Yin Jun would not come up with these fantastic ideas in front of Paul Allen.

For the entire Microsoft company, for Yin Jun, and even for Bill Gates, it is best not to let Paul Allen know about such a treasure.

If Paul Allen knew about it, maybe he would not take serious medical treatment anymore, but would care about this, return to Microsoft, and participate in this great creation.

"Mr. Yin, if you had come up with these things earlier, we might have died without selling any shares." Bill Gates couldn't help but sigh, "Paul won't leave either, he will definitely be happy. Participate in research and development.”

"If I don't buy shares, you will never see these things in your lifetime." Yin Jun also laughed.

"Same." Bill Gates shook his head and smiled.

This is a treasure that can change the fate of Microsoft, and even the future of the entire computer industry.

Before obtaining enough benefits and rights, Yin Jun would only bring out these things to negotiate with them unless he was a fool.

"But why don't you open a company of your own?" Bill Gates couldn't help but ask. "You recruit engineers and designers yourself, and work hard according to your vision. It will take at most three to five years to do a good job." This window system, right? By that time, you will be the greatest computer software pioneer in the world! All honors and wealth belong to you!"

Do you think I don’t want to?

Yin Jun smiled bitterly in his heart.

If China is still the dominant country now, then I am an idiot to come to you for cooperation, I can just do it myself.

However, this is not the case now. Instead, the United States is the only one.

If you don't find a pure American, and if you don't have an absolute share in it, then the process of rolling out the WINDOWS system to the world will be extremely difficult and difficult, and it will definitely not reach the heights of previous generations.

Moreover, the time will be greatly delayed, which is a huge obstacle to Yin Jun's computer special effects and software plans.

Yin Jun didn't have so much time to wait.

According to the development trajectory of previous lives, computer technology would develop by leaps and bounds only after the initial perfect version of WIN3.1 came out in 1991.

Do you want Yin Jun to wait for ten years without special effects computer technology?

That was really a huge torture!

In addition, Bill Gates has achieved great success, which is also proven by history. Yin Jun naturally chooses to cooperate with successful people.

But that cannot be said.

Yin Jun looked at him sincerely and said, "Bill, I believe that everyone has their own different characteristics and strengths. Microsoft is a company I admire very much, a company that focuses on its own software business. I am also optimistic about what you can do in the future. Success, that’s why I chose to cooperate with you and share my hard work with you.

As for Paul, the reason I don't want him to come back, apart from his own illness, is that more importantly, a company only needs one voice. At Microsoft, this person can only be you, Bill! Even I don’t talk about day-to-day operations. Unless one day you leave this position. "

Bill Gates is not yet the decisive tycoon he will be in the future. He is a bit shady at best, but he is still essentially a young man full of entrepreneurial enthusiasm.

Hearing Yin Jun think about himself in this way, and then thinking about Yin Jun voluntarily giving up half of his voting rights, Bill Gates felt excited.

They didn't just talk about it, but they showed great sincerity from the beginning. Bill Gates felt that he was really lucky to have such a partner.

If his mother hadn't taught him since he was a child that he must not show his emotions, he might have grabbed Yin Jun's hand and said heartfelt words to him.

Even so, Bill Gates also nodded heavily, "Mr. Yin, thank you for thinking so highly of me. I will definitely work hard to live up to your hard work and the great achievements you gave to Microsoft." Creativity! Microsoft, our common company, will definitely create great miracles!"
