Chapter 463 We Can’t Just Sit and Wait
At the beginning, everyone was somewhat unaccustomed to using a new development platform.
But only after they adapted to this new platform did they feel the advantages of this platform.
What originally required dozens of lines of code can now be accomplished with just a few lines of code on the new platform.
This not only greatly reduces the development difficulty for software developers, but also makes the originally redundant software much more "slim".
Even though the Fulong system has not yet been officially released, many manufacturers have already been full of confidence in this domestically developed computer system.
"Fulong Technology's system developer platform really takes us programmers into consideration. Compared with the developer platforms of Softmicro and Apple, Fulong Technology's system developer platform is much more efficient. It only takes less than half the time of other platforms to develop a new version of the software."
"The SDK provided by Fulong Technology is really easy to use. Not only ordinary functional software, but also other complex functional software such as 3D scenes, character production, and simulation calculations can be written more efficiently using this system platform."
"Another advantage of this system platform is that it separates the underlying layer from the operating software. In this way, SDK developers only need to focus on hardware updates. Each part is responsible for specific tasks in each department, allowing each area to maximize its energy efficiency."
…
As the reputation of Fulun Technology's system development platform continued to improve, the stock prices of many Western technology companies declined to varying degrees.
Among them, Softmicro was the company most affected.
It has been a long time since Softmicro encountered such a severe blow.
Because, in the computer system industry, Microsoft's Windows system almost monopolizes the entire computer system market.
Apart from the Windows system, only Apple's macOS system accounts for a small share.
However, due to the special nature of Apple computers, the number of users is always small, and they do not pose any threat to the Windows system.
What remains is just the internal competition between various Windows systems.
This time, Fulun Technology's sudden entry into the computer industry caught the entire industry off guard.
The mere release of a system developer platform can cause such a sensation in the industry.
When the mature system is really released, the impact on technology companies such as Microsoft and Softbank will probably be even greater.
"Before, you told us to pretend to cooperate, but now I'm afraid we have to make it real!"
Looking at the company's falling stock price, the management of Softmicro became extremely anxious.
Although they had previously agreed to cooperate with Fulun Technology.
But no one really believes that Softmicro would willingly give up part of its computer system business to Fulun Technology for nothing.
However, what happened in the past few days has given them a strong sense of crisis.
Because of the seriousness of the matter, the management of the affected Western companies immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss the response strategy for Fulun Technology.
"Although Fulong Technology has just entered the computer industry, judging from this system , Fulong Technology is determined to get a big share of the industry. If we really cooperate with them collectively and improve their system ecosystem together, then in the future there will definitely be a lot of users who will abandon the Windows system and switch to Fulong Technology's self-developed system."
Naturally, none of them want to see such a situation .
Even other companies will not suffer such a fatal blow as Softmicro.
But they also don't want the uncertainty of Fulun Technology to disrupt the entire computer market.
"I think we can't just sit there and wait for death. Instead of cooperating with them to build a new system ecosystem, we might as well turn against them directly. We should just cancel the cooperation with Fulong Technology!"
"That's right. As long as we cancel our cooperation with Fulong Technology, they will definitely not be able to build a new system ecosystem so smoothly. Many types of software cannot be made well with their current capabilities. The software they develop themselves is not enough to build a system ecosystem."
At this time, a man suggested:
"In fact, we might as well do this. On the surface, we continue to cooperate with them, so that they can relax their vigilance and give up their research on the software. After their computer is officially released, we will find some excuses to terminate our cooperation with them. Even if we lose a little money, it doesn't matter. The impact on them is far greater than ours."
"This is a good idea! Even if we really breach the contract, they won't dare to do anything to us. At most, they will never cooperate with us again. No matter how powerful Fulong Technology is, it is impossible for them to produce so many excellent software on their own."
"Yes, by then their system ecosystem will be incomplete, and users will naturally abandon their computer brand. It is not so easy to create your own independent system."
Soon, they reached an agreement and made plans for the future.

Xu You and Lou Song are conducting in-depth research on Suanjing quantum computers in the Suanjing Quantum Laboratory.
"I never expected that Suanjing not only had such a fast calculation speed, but also had such a strong learning ability. It was indeed a wise choice to let Suanjing be responsible for system and software development."
“Not only that, it is also capable of doing a good job in computer chip design. If everything goes well, we don’t need to rely on the help of those Western technology companies to complete the construction of the entire system ecosystem.”
Xu You and Lou Song said it easily, but in fact, this was not just Suan Jing's own credit.
How to let the computer learn these techniques is even more difficult to achieve.
All of this was finally achieved through Xu You and Lou Song's hard work over many days.
"Computer chips are based on the x86 architecture, which is different from the architecture of mobile phone chips. There are still many differences in principle. If we study according to the x86 architecture, we basically have to start from scratch."
"That's right. If we use the x86 architecture, then our previous research in the field of mobile phone chips will basically be useless."
"In fact, we can also try to make a computer chip using our Fulong architecture based on our system platform. This is feasible in theory. We just need to migrate the new system to the corresponding architecture."
