Chapter 1231 X86 Instruction Set Authorization(1/2)
However, just when Jobs rekindled the fire in his heart and felt like he was going to do something, Gosling finally ended his more than two hours of eloquent introduction.
Fang Chen believes that after this, programmers and software companies around the world will have a new understanding of JAVA, and JAVA will enter their computers and be integrated into their software at a faster speed.
However, more importantly, from now on, the JAVA Research Institute can finally start to make a profit, and is no longer a loser.
He spent at least 40 million U.S. dollars on purchasing JAVA from SUN, and now he finally has money back.
It can be expected that in the next twenty or thirty years, JAVA will become a cash cow that continuously provides him with a large amount of wealth and profits.
After much deliberation, he decided to hand over JAVA to the head office and let Duan Yongping directly manage it.
After all, JAVA has nothing to do with the business of any branch, including the newly established Qingtian Investment.
In this case, he thought it was the best choice to leave it to Duan Yongping, which would save Shen Wei, Jin Zhijiang and others from saying he was partial.
Thinking of this, Fang Chen couldn't help but feel tired.
As a boss, he is actually very busy. The company's development strategy, company business, and adjustments to human relations are not all tasks that he has no responsibility for and no one can replace.
As a result, those bastards always thought that he was idle all day long and had nothing to do.
After stepping down, Gosling jumped up to his feet when he learned that he would be under the direct control of the head office. He wanted to get rid of Taylor, a bastard.
Ever since Taylor started taking charge of him, he had been bored to death from having to report and apply for expenses of one hundred thousand dollars.
Seeing Goslin's appearance, Fang Chen could only say that Goslin was too young and was happy too early. Anyone who knows something about Duan Yongping knows that Duan Yongping is a hundred times more difficult to deal with than Taylor.
Gosling will have a hard time in the future.
The promotional introduction of JAVA is over, and for Fang Chen, the entire Silicon Valley Technology Conference can be declared over.
After all, he is not from the computer industry and has little interest in the technological development and innovation of computers.
Not to mention that no matter how new computer technology is now, in his opinion, it is an outdated antique. As an ordinary person, he is usually indifferent to some major technological innovations.
Take 5G as an example. For professionals, any of the patented technologies that make up 5G are remarkable and worthy of special mention. They are the result of the hard work of countless scientific research and technical personnel.
But for ordinary people, they never care about what these technologies are used for or where they come from.
Moreover, Fang Chen really didn’t want to be caught between Bill Gates and Jobs and be treated as a tool to disgust each other, so after saying hello to the two and agreeing to attend a dinner party together in the evening, Fang Chen withdrew.
After having a leisurely lunch at noon, and then having a good sleep, Fang Chen suddenly felt that such a lazy day was the most suitable for him.
The only thing that made him a little helpless was that time passed too fast. He felt that before he could take a break, it was already night, and the knock on the door from that bastard Bill Gates also rang outside.
"The organizer of the Silicon Valley Technology Conference wants to invite you to give a speech at the closing. What do you think?"
When walking into the banquet hall, Bill Gates said to Fang Chen.
Hearing this, Fang Chen rolled his eyes and refused bluntly: "Please refuse for me. To be honest, I'm not from your computer industry. Why should I give a speech at such a professional technical conference? Talk about how to do business? How?
Get rich overnight? Or how to dig oil out of the ground?"
"But your company has developed JAVA. With the popularity of JAVA, it seems not surprising that you are considered to be in the computer industry. After all, industry is a very broad word." Bill Gates said with a smile.
The industry refers to the sum of such people or institutions and the intricate relationships between them: such as entrepreneurs, observers, critics, investors, developers, manufacturers, dealers, agents, service providers, exhibitors, and integrators;
As well as evaluation institutions, professional publishing institutions, etc., these can all be counted as industry professionals in a certain industry.
"Oh!"
Fang Chen sneered in response.
Although he will be a person in the computer industry, he must be a person in the computer industry, but it is definitely not now.
"Besides, Fang, I feel like I'm your secretary now."
Seeing Fang Chen's firm attitude, Bill Gates complained helplessly.
Because Fang Chen has refused to accept interviews and various invitations so far, these people have set their sights on him and want to contact Fang Chen through him.
He doesn't know how many requests he has received recently. Thinking about such requests is a big headache.
"That's not very good. I'll give you a secretary's salary later." Fang Chenhun said nonchalantly.
Bill Gates' complexion changed slightly, and he said angrily: "Fang, you are a bastard like Steve."
"What a bastard I am!"
Jobs, who was also shot while lying down, gave Bill Gates a fierce look and said sternly.
Bill Gates smiled coquettishly and quickly said a few nice words, and then Jobs's face turned from cloudy to clear.
Just having fun like this, Fang Chen and his party entered the banquet hall.
I have to say that this banquet hall is quite large. Fang Chen took a rough look and found that it could accommodate about five or six hundred people. However, there were only less than two hundred people in the banquet hall, and not even half of it was full.
After all, those who are qualified to come to this banquet hall are basically chairman of the board, president, and well-known scholars and professors in the computer industry. At the very least, they must be technical directors, so there are naturally not many people.
However, a large restaurant has been set up next to the exhibition hall, where meals are provided for participants and are served 24 hours a day.
As soon as they arrived, the two bastards Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were surrounded by a large number of people.
As the two golden boys in the computer industry, not to mention Bill Gates, who was in the spotlight, even Jobs had no shortage of people who wanted to warm up the cold stove, but Jobs never looked down on them.
Fang Chen, on the other hand, was still the same as before, sitting alone in a corner, surrounded by Huiming, Han Guang and two other bodyguards. Wu Maocai took whatever he wanted to eat, posing as if no strangers were allowed to enter.
Look.
Some people originally wanted to chat with Fang Chen, but when they saw this posture, they had to stop immediately.
This is the benefit of having a high status. You have more freedom. You don't have to talk to anyone you don't want to talk to. You don't have to give face as much as you want, and you don't have to work hard for money, or even work hard.
Not to say complete freedom, but you can definitely have the maximum freedom.
After all, no one has absolute freedom in this world.
However, he probably ate too much at noon, and the food prepared by the chef here was indeed mediocre. After Fang Chen ate a piece of lamb chop, he stopped eating, holding a cup of tea, and looked quietly not far away.
The crowd exchanged glasses of wine, hugged each other's backs, and was extremely happy.
Except for Fang Chen, most people attend this kind of dinner not to eat or drink, but more to socialize.
But to be honest, if Bill Gates and Jobs hadn't insisted that he come to this dinner, he really wouldn't have any interest in attending this dinner.
Probably because they really couldn't stand Fang Chen being able to be so leisurely in such an occasion, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs walked toward Fang Chen, hugging an old man in his sixties with gray hair.
When he saw the old man's appearance clearly, Fang Chen stood up with a smile and walked around the table to greet him.
In his free time on weekdays, Fang Chen would look for photos and information about people worthy of his attention, so as not to fall into an embarrassing situation like Steve Jobs today.
It's not that he was afraid of being impolite or embarrassed.
He just doesn't want to look like a fool. Everyone around him knows who this person is, but you don't. Wouldn't that make you look like a fool?
And this person is indeed qualified to ask Fang Chen to stand up and greet him.
This is the founder, former chairman and president of Intel Corporation, one of the Eight Fairy Child Rebels, the founder of modern microprocessors, and the inventor of Moore's Law, an extremely important law for the computer industry, Gordon Moore!
During the more than ten years when Gordon Moore led Intel, the personal computer industry represented by personal computers sprouted and developed rapidly. And with the great success of personal computers around the world, the supply of core components of personal computers
Intel has grown from a memory manufacturer into a more brilliant Intel.
Gordon Moore is the biggest promoter and winner of this great change.
But Fang Chen really never expected that Bill Gates and Jobs would actually invite this giant Buddha.
Suddenly, a thought came into Fang Chen's mind.
Seriously, he really has something to talk to Gordon Moore about.
That is the matter of obtaining the instruction set authorization for the X86 architecture.
For a computer software to realize its functions and run successfully, it needs to be written in a programming language and then translated into machine code, which is a string of 0101 codes.
Such a piece of machine code is called an instruction, and the instruction can be executed by the CPU.
All instructions that the CPU can execute are called instruction sets.
The advancedness of the instruction set is also related to the performance of the CPU. It is also an important symbol of CPU performance. The instruction set is one of the most effective tools to improve the efficiency of microprocessors.
The mobile phone CPU chips that everyone is familiar with, whether it is Apple's A series, Qualcomm's Snapdragon series, or Huawei's HiSilicon Kirin series, all use the instruction set or architecture designed by ARM.
What everyone hears about using terms such as A78 large core, A77 large core, X1 large core, A55 medium core, etc. are products designed by ARM.
For example, ARM is the developer. The developer has built the house and set the main structure. All Apple, Qualcomm, and Huawei need to do is decorate the house.
Then the quality of their mobile phone's CPU chip depends on the level of their decoration, that is, what kind of large core or medium core they choose, how high the frequency is, how much the temperature is to reduce the frequency, and so on.
And why is Fang Chen so concerned about Intel's X86 instruction set?
This is because almost all computer CPUs must use the X86 instruction set. The X86 instruction set is by far the most easy-to-use and most powerful instruction set in the world.
But unfortunately, apart from Intel, only AMD has the X86 instruction set.
Well, that's right, these are the two bastards who have almost divided up the production and sales of computer CPUs in the world.
And in other words, only if you have the authorization of the X86 instruction set can you stand firm and survive in the field of CPU production, otherwise it will definitely be a dead end.
Since Fang Chen plans to build computers and CPUs, obtaining the authorization for the X86 instruction set is an essential step.
But this step is so difficult.
Even the X86 instruction set authorization obtained by AMD was due to the time when Intel had just supplied CPU chips produced with the X86 instruction set to the blue giant IBM.
