Starting in mid-April, Zhao Ye focused his main efforts on developing blade servers and the Fuxi database software.
After pirated versions of the HarmonyOS became popular in the United States, orders for the Kirin-3 CPU and Kunpeng-1 GPU suddenly surged, with even a surge in retaliatory consumption occurring in a short period of time.
Is this a case of losing one thing but gaining another?
Chip companies like Intel, however, suffered a major setback, with sales plummeting.
It's bad enough that EDA tools and chip manufacturing are getting more expensive, but now even chips can't be sold, which is making matters worse for chip companies that are already battered!
In the early 1990s, the Wintel alliance, formed by Microsoft and Intel, crushed IBM and Apple. Now, however, they have become brothers in misfortune.
Especially for Intel, Vladimir Pentkovsky, the Soviet man who was the key figure in the Pentium series of chips, has now joined Loongson Technology, taking with him a large number of chip design talents.
This significantly delayed Intel's development.
In contrast, Loongson Technology is about to develop the "Kirin-4", or "Kirin Pentium" processor.
The reason it was specially named "Kirin Pentium" processor is because the release of this processor will completely establish its invincible status and establish the image of the Kirin series processors as invincible. Its performance advantage will far surpass that of processors from Intel and AMD!
...
"Boss, the Ministry of Education of China wants us to develop a miniature computer to help students learn computer programming!" Liu Yinyin said as she walked up to Zhao Ye with the documents in her hand.
Shenzhou computers were too expensive, and although Wujiang Group donated a batch of computers, there were too many students and the supply could not meet the demand.
If Wujiang Group can develop a relatively inexpensive microcomputer, the Ministry of Education would be very willing to purchase a batch and distribute it to various universities.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Ye's eyes suddenly lit up. He thought of a product that was very low in cost and mainly used for learning computer programming.
If more people learn programming, Wujiang Group will not be short of talent.
If China has more people who can program, it will not only benefit the development of the internet, but it could also potentially steal India's IT outsourcing or contract manufacturing industry.
In its previous life, India's IT industry was highly developed, and IT outsourcing or contract manufacturing was key to the development of India's IT industry.
In its previous life, India had the second-largest number of IT companies in the world. Not only were its software outsourcing companies large in scale, but it also became a world power, occupying the top two positions in the world's software outsourcing market for a long time, along with the United States, with a combined share of up to two-thirds. India's software exports also accounted for 20% of global software exports. To use a common saying among Indian enthusiasts: 90% of the software in American and European Internet companies is written by Indians.
India's software industry is mainly used for export to generate foreign exchange, earning nearly $200 billion in revenue. More than 70% of its software outsourcing comes from the United States, and millions of Indian IT personnel provide services such as online customer service, after-sales service, code input, software testing, data input and analysis to European and American companies, especially American companies, every year.
Zhao Ye believes that China can completely replace it.
"Okay, I understand. Tell the people at the Ministry of Education that Wujiang Group will soon come up with a product that will satisfy them!"
Zhao Ye said with absolute certainty.
Liu Yinyin responded and went to contact the Ministry of Education.
Zhao Ye immediately began thinking about how to develop "raspberrypi" in his mind.
In its early days, the Raspberry Pi was highly sought after by computer enthusiasts and makers, and it was once extremely difficult to obtain one. It had no monitor, no mouse, no keyboard, and its price was as "pocket-sized" as its size: $35.
Despite its small size, it is very powerful inside, with video, audio and other functions. It is a small but complete device.
Before Zhao Ye's rebirth, Raspberry Pi was extremely popular, with annual sales reaching tens of millions of units!
Zhao Ye didn't expect to be able to develop the Raspberry Pi from his previous life, but he could develop a miniature computer for learning computer programming, based on the design principles of the Raspberry Pi.
Domestically, the Subor learning machine is a case of deceptive marketing.
The Raspberry Pi that Wujiang Group is developing will certainly not be the same as the Subor.
Zhao Ye quickly thought it through in his mind. He realized that he could use the Kirin 1 chip with a low-end version of the HarmonyOS system to create a suitable mini-computer.
This miniature computer has a USB port. While ordinary computer motherboards rely on hard drives to store data, this one can use a USB flash drive as a hard drive to store data.
Wujiang Group could easily develop a USB flash drive with a lower capacity and a lower price.
Zhao Ye quickly turned on his computer, created a Word document, and began writing down his ideas.
In less than ten minutes, he finished writing it, studied it carefully, and felt that there was no problem. He then sent it to Qiu Bojun, asking Wujiang Computer Company to immediately research a microcomputer. After that, he continued to develop the "Fuxi Database".
Zhao Ye's familiarity with databases is unparalleled; it can be said that no one in the world understands databases better than Zhao Ye.
In his previous life, Zhao Ye had used databases from many companies, and he knew all their functions very well, especially MySQL, which he was extremely familiar with because it was open source and free.
Therefore, the "Fuxi Database" is designed based on MySQL.
