Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

Complete the development of a fully localized Chinese operating platform and launch it officially for use.

In fact, there are already ready-made localization platforms.

But that's for military use; it would be too costly to use it for civilian purposes.

Now, Yang Jianguo wants to change it from a 'restricted' to a 'general-purpose' operating system, breaking the monopoly of foreign operating systems.

Although, from the current perspective, doing so is somewhat counterproductive.

Even in China, it's impossible to use only localized platforms.

After all, having a platform is one thing.

The various applications on the platform, their scalability, level of participation, recognition, and potential value are another matter entirely.

In the long run, a Chinese-language operating platform is needed.

It is of profound significance and is beneficial to both the people and the country.

In fact, Chinese character cards have been around for several years.

The problems they encountered were the same as those faced by Yang Jianguo.

Widespread adoption!

Previously, Yang Jianguo had tried to invite the other party to join Loongson, but he had refused.

Unexpectedly, I met him in person when I came to the research institute.

"Ni Nan, what's this?" Yang Jianguo was surprised to see him.

"Director Yang, I've resigned from that job." Ni Nan shook his head self-deprecatingly, his expression full of bitterness.

He never imagined that one day he would leave the career he had chosen.

No, it should be called an escape.

They fled in a sorry state!

He had thought he could uphold fairness and justice.

But in fact, he underestimated the power of capital and overestimated his own importance and influence.

"Don't be discouraged. Here you can give full play to your strengths and put all your knowledge into practice... We need experts like you."

Yang Jianguo patted his back and laughed heartily, saying, "Everyone, with Academician Ni joining us, the road ahead will be much easier."

After a simple yet formal welcome, Yang Jianguo immediately led his team to get to work.

How can a localized Chinese system attract more users?

It gives third-party developers hope, but more importantly—it brings profits.

Without profit, who would bother developing peripherals around the localization system?

Whether it's hardware or software.

Both require sufficient incentives to act as catalysts.

Otherwise, even if the system is actually developed, it will only be a niche platform for self-entertainment.

I wonder when it will disappear into the annals of history again.

Anything without practical value, no matter how excellent, will inevitably be eliminated.

"We cannot entertain ourselves and only consider local characteristics. We must be open... Only with sufficient openness can we arouse the interest of practitioners."

"Imagine someone, out of curiosity, wanting to see what a Chinese localization platform is all about."

"When he turned on the computer, he found that he couldn't find anything, couldn't even get into the door, let alone learn anything."

"What would he do then?" Yang Jianguo looked at everyone, paused for a few seconds, and then spoke again:

He would turn it off and say, "Oh well, let them play by themselves!"

"Or he might say: Hey, let's break it together."

Good-natured laughter erupted from the crowd; they could all imagine the scene Yang Jianguo described.

Therefore, everyone can naturally understand his anxiety and worry.

Creating a localized platform is just the first step in a long journey.

How to make the platform realize its value is the next issue they need to consider.

During the research and development process, Yang Jianguo kept thinking about this problem.

We need to get the whole population involved and give them a reason to participate.

On the other hand, it is necessary to avoid foreign criticism and government intervention in the free market, which could trigger new conflicts and crises.

Yang Jianguo has an idea, but it's not quite mature yet.

The implementation also requires the cooperation of the public.

The 'accidental' leak of the outer code sparked the interest of grassroots organizations, subsequently leading to a large number of professionals creating derivative works.

During this period, the peripherals of the Chinese localization platform were continuously improved.

Step by step, they are seizing Microsoft's market share...

Even if it cannot be achieved, it should still reach a certain scale and influence.

It's also acceptable for it to become a professional technical exchange platform.

Red Alliance?

There are too many unreliable factors involved. The members are unruly and, because they are young and their minds are not yet settled, they have many conflicts with each other.

Then, he secretly formed a new Red Alliance to restrict and guide it.

Is this feasible?!

Yang Jianguo continued to think along these lines, his thoughts expanding, and he increasingly felt that it was feasible.

Strong external intervention and restrictions can make the Red Alliance more cohesive.

At the same time, technology and deterrence will be stronger.

Chapter 603 Social Responsibility, Treating Everyone Equally

"The Red Alliance?" Li Aimin asked, puzzled. "Brother-in-law, are you planning to climb the ranks?"

Li Aimin had clearly misunderstood; he thought Li Aimin was forming some kind of Tongmenghui (Revolutionary Alliance).

Support yourself in continuing your career advancement in administration.

After Yang Jianguo explained it to him, Li Aimin became even more confused.

What benefit would he gain from setting up such a non-governmental organization?

"It doesn't benefit me personally. Haven't I explained it clearly enough?"

Promote the development of the platform and stimulate public interest in the localization platform.

To attract more people and improve the platform's external architecture.

"Where's the money? Who will support its development?" Li Aimin didn't understand what he was saying.

However, as a successful businessman...

He knew that anything that wanted to develop required financial support.

Who will fund and maintain the development of the Red Alliance?

After not hearing his reply for a while, Li Aimin looked up at him.

He was taken aback when he noticed Yang Jianguo staring intently at him.

Raising his hand, Li Aimin pointed at himself and asked, "It's not me, is it?"

Yang Jianguo smiled and said, "Of course it's you. Don't you think it's a good fit?"

His Pangu Technology is a leading company in the domestic industry.

He himself is an international trader with extensive connections and networks all over the country.

In addition, he is very rich and patriotic.

Therefore, it is possible for such an individual to sponsor non-governmental organizations to extend, develop, and improve the Chinese localization platform.

What's wrong with that? It's perfectly normal!

"Brother-in-law, this is no small sum of money."

Li Aimin was almost in tears. This was just too much to ask; they were really squeezing every last bit of profit out of him.

“I know, so you’re not the only one.”

Yang Jianguo only planned to persuade him first, and then go to find Zhang Liangyu and Ma Degui.

Raise an army for a thousand days, use it for a while.

To some extent, Yang Jianguo did open many doors of convenience for them.

Now, it's time to give back.

"Bringing them along would be a good idea." Li Aimin's long face had stopped, and he was actually looking forward to it.

Who hasn't dreamed of being a hero when they were young? If it's really like what my brother-in-law said...

Then he will become a hero in the hearts of the people of mainland China.

Well, unsung heroes...

"I'll invest one million."

Li Aimin is generous, which is a bit unlike his usual self.

Noticing the surprise in Yang Jianguo's eyes, Li Aimin spread his hands and smiled, "Having made so much money, you should do something about it."

The question of whether wealthy people should shoulder more social responsibility is not something that emerged overnight.

In fact, after the first batch of rich people emerged.

It generates value for discussion in different places, at different times, and among different groups of people.

Li Aimin himself has also participated in the relevant discussions.

At entrepreneurs' conferences, business associations, and symposiums for young entrepreneurs.

He has publicly stated that successful entrepreneurs should shoulder more social responsibility.

Set an example for society and the public, truly achieve the goal of the wealthy leading to the well-being of others, and give back to society with their wealth.

"Love the people and stick to your own ideas."

Yang Jianguo put his hand on his shoulder and said earnestly, "No matter what, you must stick to your ideas."

Li Aimin smiled brightly and said, "Brother-in-law, I'm not a fickle person."

After convincing Li Aimin, the two changed the subject and began discussing Zhiyi's marriage.

The banquet will definitely be held at Tianxia Manor; that goes without saying.

The rest—the wedding house, dowry, and car—will be discussed and decided by both families.

Tongwei grew up relying on the kindness of many families; his parents passed away early on.

Therefore, there was no one who could help him make decisions.

He had to do everything himself.

“I asked my sister, how about I prepare a wedding house for the children so that they can live more comfortably?”

When Zhiyuan got married, didn't he also provide a wedding house?

Furniture and appliances were all provided.

Given this precedent, there's nothing wrong with taking care of my niece.

"Respect the child's own wishes and let Zhiyi discuss it with Tongwei!"

Yang Jianguo had no objection to this; they were family, so there was no need for formalities.

"Actually, it's quite good for them to live here. Yingzi will definitely be happy."
