Chapter 472 A Storm is Coming
Even the setting for Windows system to force automatic updates was immediately canceled.
Such changes have reduced users' complaints about the Windows system.
"It turns out that Softmicro is not unable to cancel the system's automatic update settings, but is unwilling to make changes before a sufficiently strong competitor emerges. Thanks to the emergence of the Fulong system, Softmicro is finally willing to make changes!"
"I didn't expect that Microsoft would respond so quickly this time. In just a few days, they solved so many long-standing bugs. Now using the Windows system is much more comfortable than before. It turns out that there must be enough competition for companies to respect users."
"SoftMicro has always ignored user feedback. This is more of an attitude problem than a problem of ability. I hope that one day they can fix all the bugs so that we can use the ideal computer system."
Softmicro's timely response has the effect of remedying the situation.
After all, we are all users who are used to the Windows system. When Microsoft is willing to humble itself and make changes, people will no longer complain as strongly as before.
…
In Xu You's office, Xu You and Luo Wenkun were discussing what had just happened.
"Sure enough, Softmicro is not incapable of fixing those bugs, they just don't want to. This change in their attitude has finally helped their company's stock price and reputation recover."
"In fact, sometimes they deliberately don't fix bugs. This is already an unspoken rule within the industry."
"Oh? If they do this, what is the specific reason?"
"If they want, they can let their system engineers focus on fixing bugs. However, with the same amount of time and energy, they can do something more meaningful and valuable to them, such as developing new systems and new features. In their values, 'backward compatibility' is far more important than 'functional correctness'."
"I think there is another premise here, which is that Microsoft's Windows system has monopolized the entire computer system industry, allowing them to act fearlessly in accordance with the company's philosophy without having to worry about the market being taken over by other companies."
The emergence of Fulon Technology broke this situation and made Softmicro have a strong sense of crisis.
"Of course, I think that in addition to this, there is another reason why they don't fix some bugs, which is that fixing these bugs may bring some new bugs, or even more bugs. It is obviously safer not to make any fixes before the risks of fixing the bugs can be determined."
"This time, Softmicro urgently fixed so many bugs, which inevitably brought some secondary problems. I guess the engineers of Softmicro will be very busy in the coming period of time."
When talking about these things, Xu You and Luo Wenkun were relatively calm.
Although a series of events during this period have severely damaged Softmicro, they are far from shaking Softmicro's position in the computer system industry.
After all, Softmicro has been making systems for nearly forty years, and its foundation is too solid to be easily shaken.
The coming period of time will be an even more severe test for Fulun Technology.
Just as Xu You and Luo Wenkun expected, after Softmicro fixed multiple bugs, some secondary problems did arise.
The modification of some bugs caused some hidden problems in the system because of the lack of strict regression testing.
In order to solve these problems, the engineers of Softmicro were so busy every day that they had no time to develop new features.
This is not the situation they want to see, but since Fulon Technology's system has solved these problems, they must also work hard for it.
If even Fulong Technology, a company that has only been engaged in computer systems for less than a year, can solve the problem, Softmicro cannot solve it.
It is inevitable that people will doubt the strength of Softmicro.
No matter how much it costs, Microsoft will not easily give up on solving these bugs.
…
"It's bad, Mr. Luo!"
Luo Wenkun, who was checking the latest international consultation in the office, suddenly heard his subordinates shouting.
"What's wrong? Why are you so flustered?"
"Adobe said that their software was incompatible with the Fulong system, so they contacted us and temporarily stopped cooperating with us."
After hearing the news, Luo Wenkun was not as shocked as the employee.
"Sure enough, Xu You's information is accurate." Luo Wenkun said in his heart.
Although Luo Wenkun still doesn't know how Xu You learned the news.
However, since Xu You was so sure at the time, this matter must not be groundless.
"Could it be that... Xu You is actually Nameless?"
Then Luo Wenkun denied this idea.
Before this, Xu You had made it clear that he was not "Nameless".
Xu You will not reveal his secrets easily, but he will not deliberately deceive others.
Since Xu You has already denied it, Nameless is definitely not the same person as Xu You.
"Boss Luo, what should we do now?"
If a company of Adobe's size suddenly terminates its cooperation with Fulun Technology, it will be a huge blow to the computer that Fulun Technology is about to release.
This means that the system ecosystem carefully built by Fulun Technology will lose an important link.
"Don't worry, I have my own strategy for dealing with it."
Seeing that Luo Wenkun's expression was calm, the staff had no choice but to withdraw from Luo Wenkun's office.
Immediately, Luo Wenkun informed Xu You of this matter.
"Someone in the company just told me that Adobe has contacted us and suspended cooperation with Fulong Technology because they have not yet been able to develop software that is compatible with our system. This reason is obviously untenable. In our tests, it is not difficult to develop software that is compatible with our Fulong system."
Fulun Technology's system developer platform is not only completely open to the outside world, but also because of its specific underlying logic, it is relatively easy to write code.
In fact, it is even easier than Windows system.
Adobe's statement is just an excuse.
By doing so, they will not only affect the ecosystem layout plan of the Fulong system, but will also bring discredit to the Fulong system.
"If our predictions are correct, Adobe's default is just the beginning. A storm is coming."
