Chapter 1230 The future is the world of JAVA(1/2)
Listen to the deafening cheers and look at the faces filled with excitement.
Gosling couldn't help laughing. He waved his hands vigorously and said loudly: "I can see from your expressions that you are quite satisfied with JAVA."
"satisfy!"
An earth-shattering roar sounded instantly.
"But at this moment, I want to represent all the members of the JAVA Research Institute. Thank you for using JAVA and for putting forward tens of thousands of improvement suggestions for JAVA. Without your help, it would not be as good as it is now.
JAVA." Gosling said with a smile.
But the next second, he changed his words, pointed to the audience, and said loudly: "However, I should be more grateful to my boss, Mr. Fang Chen, the chairman of Qingtian Company. Without him, you would probably never be able to continue."
Even JAVA can't see it. Like many inventions in history, it will disappear silently in the long river of history. Even in my head, I can't even remember that I invented it."
Qingtian Company?
Fang Chen?
Suddenly, almost everyone's eyes were focused on Fang Chen.
The news that Fang Chen was besieged by major European and American media was clearly engraved in this morning's newspapers.
In addition, the newspaper also listed various information about Fang Chen, including his age, wealth, industries he owned, including manufacturing and oil, his relationship with the president, etc.
After all, Fang Chen's exclusive interview is coming next, and these media reporters also need to stir up the topic in advance, so as to have good ratings.
This makes Fang Chen, who has almost disappeared since attending the presidential inauguration, become famous not only in the United States, but also in Silicon Valley.
Even since last night, a large number of people have been discussing why Fang Chen came to Silicon Valley and the Qingtian.
After all, for Silicon Valley at this time, a private jet as big as the Qingtian is still a relatively rare thing.
In other words, Fang Chen, a super rich man with a net worth of tens of billions of dollars and ranking in the 20s and 30s in the world, attracts attention no matter where he is.
But what they never expected was that Fang Chen was actually the boss behind JAVA. It was with his support that JAVA was able to appear in front of them and change the tragic situation they were likely to face.
In an instant, countless programmers and people in the computer industry developed a strong impression of Fang Chen, and even all kinds of applause and whistles started to sound.
There was no other way, Fang Chen glared at Goslin and could only stand up and bow to everyone around him.
He really didn't expect that Gosling could let himself go so freely when he talked about JAVA.
He even thought that if Gosling was sent to China to learn cross talk, he might be a good actor.
"What I just said is not an exaggeration. You probably don't know that JAVA was my work at Sun in 1991. It was originally used for smart appliances, but because the cost of smart appliances was too high, JAVA could only be shelved.
, as for how long it will be kept, it can only be decided by God. But luckily, my boss, Fang Chen, discovered me and discovered JAVA!"
Maybe it’s not too big a deal to watch the fun, so Gosling added fuel to the fire.
The cheers were louder now, and the eyes looking at Fang Chen became more eager.
In the past half year or so, because of JAVA, Goslin has actually become somewhat famous among programmers, and they also know that Goslin is living a very good life now.
He has a super annual salary of more than half a million US dollars per year and has his own research institute. However, the most important thing is that this research institute has 20 million US dollars in funding every year for him to squander.
This is simply super treatment that they can't even dream of.
You know, former Apple President John Sculley received an annual salary of US$2.2 million in 1987.
This annual salary makes John Sculley the highest-paid manager in Silicon Valley, and this record has not been broken to this day.
It can be said that everything Gosling experienced completely satisfied their fantasies about future life.
A tech nerd with little talent meets a boss who appreciates his talent, and then instantly reaches the pinnacle of his life. With an annual salary of hundreds of thousands, he can do whatever he wants. Isn't this what they desire most in their life?
Suddenly, everyone, especially the programmers, couldn't help but increase their favorability towards Fang Chen. Some even planned to try their luck at Fang Chen's company. What if they could become Gosling's second?
But not everyone in the audience was so happy. For example, the other protagonist in Gosling's words just now, the current president of SUN, Andy Beckettson, had no intention of being happy at all.
He is more angry that something has been stolen.
If Fang Chen hadn't forced him to sell out JAVA, then he should be the one receiving this honor and being shouted out by everyone.
Moreover, he has now discovered that the role that JAVA can play, the impact it has, and the money he can earn will be much more than he imagined.
When he thought of handing over such a money-spinner to Fang Chen, he felt like he was vomiting blood.
Although Sun is developing well, its workstation and server sales have increased by about 30% compared with last year, and its market value has doubled. Among the thousands of companies in Silicon Valley, it is almost ranked in the top ten.
But the loss of JAVA is definitely the biggest loss of SUN since its establishment.
But what can he do? Who can prevent him from convincing the company's shareholders to bear the losses caused by the decline in stock prices because he did not sell JAVA to Fang Chen.
It's too late to say anything now.
There was a dead silence in Andy Beckettson's heart.
Feeling the death threat in Fang Chen's eyes, the pride and arrogance on Goslin's face instantly subsided a lot.
After the shouting subsided, Gosling quickly said: "I think my boss will give me a salary increase after receiving such praise, so let's get down to business now and see what I have brought to you.
Brand new JAVA."
There was a burst of laughter from the audience.
"As the first official version of JAVA, JAVA 1.0 will bring more experience and functions to everyone."
"One of the distinctive features of JAVA is simplicity. JAVA is now designed to look a lot like C++, but in order to make the language small and familiar, we have removed many features available in the C++ language that are common to ordinary programmers.
Rarely used. For example, Java does not support goto statements..."
"JAVA is an object-oriented language. It has good support for classes, objects, inheritance, encapsulation, polymorphism, interfaces, packages, etc. in objects, so for the sake of simplicity, Java only supports single connections between classes.
Inheritance, but for programmers, this means paying attention to the data in the application and the methods of manipulating the data, rather than thinking strictly in terms of procedures."
"So now the new version of JAVA1.0 can already use interfaces to implement multiple inheritance..."
"However, the greatest thing about JAVA as a programming language is obviously that the language declaration does not depend on the implementation. The Java environment itself is portable to new hardware platforms and operating systems. After the introduction of the virtual machine, the Java language
No need to recompile to run on different platforms..."
Gosling spoke eloquently about JAVA for nearly an hour.
After all, although JAVA has spread rapidly among programmers and software companies in this year, in fact, less than one-tenth of the programmers and software companies actually use JAVA.
It sounds like such a result is a bit regretful, but considering that JAVA is a brand new programming language that has not even been officially launched before, it can achieve such results. This is enough to prove the excellence of JAVA, and Gosling and their efforts are not as good as
In vain, Fang Chen’s twenty million US dollars was not in vain.
You should be happy.
Therefore, the main purpose of Fang Chen asking Gosling to attend this Silicon Valley Technology Conference is still to introduce JAVA to programmers and software companies around the world, and to accelerator the spread of JAVA.
After all, if more people use JAVA, more wealth will be brought to Qingtian.
"In addition to improvements to JAVA itself, we also provide a development tool called JDK1.0. JDK is a software development kit in the Java language. It is mainly used for Java applications on mobile devices and embedded devices. JDK is the entire
The core of Java development, which includes the JAVA operating environment and JAVA tools."
"These mainly include compilers that convert source programs into bytecode; packaging tools that package related class files into one file; document generators that extract documents from source code comments..."
JDK1.0 provides developers with approximately ten various development tools.
As far as the perfection of JDK1.0 is concerned, JAVA can already declare itself to be a qualified entity that can compete head-on with established programming languages such as C++.
In fact, if we compare the current JDK1.0 situation with the previous JDK, such a complete JDK should be called JDK1.4.
After all, Fang Chen's twenty million dollars were not spent in vain, nor were these tens of thousands of programmer guinea pigs.
However, for Fang Chen, his interest in JDK is actually far higher than JAVA.
Because as a programming language, JAVA cannot charge programmers and software companies.
Then the question arises. Since it is free, what supports SUN's market value of US$200 billion at its peak in its previous life?
At that time, SUN was the technology company with the highest market value in the world, but its revenue of US$18.3 billion in 2001 was worthy of such a market value.
From 1986 to 2001, SUN's annual turnover increased from US$210 million to US$18.3 billion, with an average growth rate of 36% per year. It has been able to maintain such high-speed development for fifteen consecutive years. Only Microsoft, Intel and Cisco have ever achieved this.
Pass.
The secret to maintaining SUN's rapid growth is JDK!
Although programming languages cannot be charged, as a development tool, JDK can be charged.
However, the more programmers and companies that use JAVA as a programming language to write software, the more money JDK can make.
It is precisely relying on JDK and SUN's own business, the ris operating system, workstations, and servers that support SUN's market value of up to 200 billion US dollars.
Let SUN almost acquire Apple.
In 1996, Sun acquired Apple at a premium of US$3.89 billion.
But suddenly an Apple investment banker stood up and strongly opposed it. He put forward many harsh conditions, which forced Sun to finally give up the acquisition.
Now it is not difficult to understand why Fang Chen attaches more importance to JDK than JAVA, right?
In its previous life, JDK basically brought SUN US$5 billion in revenue and more than US$700 million in profits every year.
This is why Oracle was willing to acquire SUN in 2009 for US$7.4 billion.
You know, the SUN company in 2009 was basically an empty shell, with absolutely nothing except JAVA and JDK.
