chapter Ten

Everyone said that the back is confused. Actually, I want to write about the background abroad, but I have never lived abroad, so I can't write about it. I want to write about it in China, but in fact the protagonist is an American, I can't say that the super characters in the United States are from my own country. Please forgive Zhuzhu...

In the end, I can only make up for it with one sentence: "This is a different world, I am not writing about China or the United States"

The next day, Owen hurriedly found Old Moss and asked, "Do you know anyone who has used a computer in the debris room?"

Old Moss felt a little sad and hurriedly covered up, "No one has ever used it. Just ask the people here and you will know that no one has ever been to this cubicle room, and even I, the director of the cubicle room, don't go there often!"

Owen touched his chin and muttered, "Is it the matter before the storage room?"

"I...I'm going to go and see you later!" After saying that, Old Moss left in a hurry.

Then Owen found the former library administrator and asked her if anyone had used the computer when it was placed in the library. The former library administrator naturally let him know that no one in the community's general affairs department could use the computer, and the computer was indeed broken. Although she didn't know what DOS was not DOS, she was very sure. When she pressed the switch, the computer did not respond at all.

All of this made Owen feel confused. There was no problem with the computer, and how those programs were inside. It was really strange. These things should be taken to Professor Bied. Maybe he would have any insights.

Thinking of this, he couldn't take much care of it. He immediately asked the General Affairs Department for a leave. When he returned to the library, Irving began to disassemble the chassis to remove the hard disk containing the data and take it back to school. He removed the last screw and opened the chassis cover. At this time, he saw something even more surprising, a very complicated circuit board. He had never seen such things in a computer, so he decided to carry the chassis back to school together!

Bernstein Institute of Electronic Engineering, Irving, who returned to the school, hugged the chassis, walked through the school with a familiar way with the boss's sun, and came to the professor's office in a hurry and broke in without even knocking on the door. At this time, two professors were inside. Professor Bied, who was burying his head in writing academic papers, raised his head and found that it was Irving, and pushed his eyes on his nose and said, "It's you, you, aren't you, reporting to your job? Why are you running back and not satisfied with your job?"

Owen gasped and wiped his sweat and said, "I found something very interesting at the place where I work. I think the professor will be interested, so I took it over!"

Professor Bied looked at the case in his arms and asked in confusion: "Is this case?"

"Yes, let you see this first!" As he said that, Owen placed the chassis flat on the table and then opened the chassis cover.

Professor Bied and another professor also came over curiously and looked inside. His face suddenly changed. Professor Bied said in surprise: "Can this computer be started?"

Without saying a word, Owen connected the chassis to the monitor in the professor's office, then pressed the switch, and the computer started running normally.

Professor Bide, who saw this situation, was shocked and said: "The people who work on this board have reached the level of a hardware engineer in computers, and their electronics level is superb. They can use electronic components to simulate the logic control system of the central processor. Tsk tsk, I didn't expect that there was such a master in your workplace. When will I introduce it to me? If you have the opportunity to have a good conversation with him!"

"Actually, I don't know who is using this computer. To be honest, I don't know what this board is for. There are strange things, so you can continue to watch!"

At this time, the computer had started running and entered the operating system. Professor Bied sat in front of the computer without saying a word, and then operated for a while, his face getting worse and worse.

Owen said from the side: "It's a very strange operating system. It's much more intuitive than a pure text DOS system. You can tell at a glance how to operate it!"

Professor Bied sighed: "It's a very excellent system. I don't know which company came out. This is an operating system that will bring earth-shaking changes to the computer industry. Although it is just a wrinkle type, I'm sure that future computers will fully use this mode of operating system."

"Is there such great significance?" Owen said in shock.

"Yes, this is a revolutionary operating system. Although it is just a simple wrinkle, it will completely replace the old DOS system!"

"What if I say..., this system was not created by any company, but designed by someone?"

"What did you say?" Professor Bide was even more shocked than the five thunderbolts.

"Look at the hard drive, there is a file that contains the source code of this operating system!"

Professor Bied hurriedly opened the folder Irving said, and found the source code program of the operating system. His hands seemed to be trembling and said tremblingly: "You...you...know...what does this mean?"

"Although the operating system has a unique mode and a high level, it is not a peerless work!"

"You are wrong. Let me tell you this way. The pencil was originally cylindrical and easy to break. Later, someone invented the six-screw column type. This patent brought hundreds of thousands of wealth to that person. So, what about this trans-era operating system? This is just a profit, and also a reputation. The computer Von Neumann, who invented the computer, was still called the father of computers. Now the one in front of you is just a simple program, and what he represents...I know what it means?"

Irving nodded violently in a cold sweat, as if thinking of something: "This system has not been officially launched yet. If anyone takes it out first, it will be whose?"

"It's true, but I can't do this kind of behavior, just like stealing!"

"It's really very tempting, but I can't do such shameless things!"

"By the way, where did you get this case?"

"Oh, this is equipped by the community where I work. When I first arrived there, I heard that it was broken, so I wanted to repair it, so I moved it out of the debris room. I found these things and later asked many people, saying that no one had used this computer, and I have always wondered about this."

Professor Bide pondered for a long time and then said, "Please put the chassis here for me to study it carefully. Although it is a bit inappropriate, you must be very curious about the operating system program framework. I will call you to notify you to get it back in a few days. Remember to pay attention to the person. If you can find it, remember to give me the contact information and I will visit myself."

"I will pay attention, then I'll go back first and have to go to work tomorrow!"

At this time, neither of them noticed. The professor who had been silent on the side had a trace of greed flashed in the corner of his eyes...

The next day after returning to the community general affairs department, when I was at work, Owen was like a spy, paying attention to everyone in the general affairs department, especially those with glasses, older ones, and those who looked wrong. At noon, he received a call from the old professor. The old professor on the other end of the phone said in embarrassment: "Irving, there is something I think I want to let you know!"

"Can the chassis be taken back?"

"No...no, it's actually the case. The professor I worked with... resigned and completely lost his sight..."

"You...what do you mean?" Owen felt badly.

"After he resigned, the hard drive in that chassis disappeared..."

"Ah!" Owen couldn't help but lose his voice.

"This matter... don't be hyped. Speaking of which, we are, accomplices, too."

"I know... I know!"

"Tomorrow you come here to carry the chassis and go back. Regarding the hard drive, I found a new one. I really didn't expect that this is how a revolutionary step of the computer was taken!"

Not long after, a computer manufacturer equipped its own computer with an operating system of this mode. However, the operating system was specially equipped for the computers they produced. Other computers could not be installed, so the system could not be circulated. As a result, a small software company copied the operating system's mode and improved it to be installed on any computer. It also advocated the use of a computing peripheral input device that has been invented for a long time but basically no one used: the mouse!

What happened next is indescribable.

I just know that this small software company is called Microcomputer Software Company, abbreviated:
