"Ahem, hello boss, my name is Albert Pearson. My job is graphical interactive interface design. The technical difficulty of this part of the work is not high, but the design difficulty is not small. There are many designs that we also need to consider the equipment. Hardware support..."

"Wait, give me an example." Murphy said.

Albert was stunned for a moment, "Okay, for example, the most important structure of the graphical interface is various frames. When the user drags the frame or zooms in or out, we want to design a smoother animation, but smoothness means A high refresh rate is required, and a too high refresh rate will have higher requirements on computer hardware, so we have been swinging between thirty frames and sixty frames of animation..."

"Do sixty frames." Murphy said, "Such problems are handled according to the best results. You don't have to worry too much about computer hardware problems. We have developed a special graphics processing chip to process graphics images. The message, therefore, is to just use the design that you think will make people most comfortable.”

"Any other questions?"

"No, not anymore." Albert seemed shocked by Murphy's unhesitating attitude.

"Okay, next, functional architecture team, Mr. Anderson?"

"Hello, boss. Our work is mainly to design more easy-to-use functions for the desktop system, such as notepad, drawing tools, etc... At present, the problem we encounter is that these tools are too many and too subtle. If they are all If you put it on the desktop, it will look very messy, but if you put it in the secondary interface such as settings and functions, it will be easily ignored..."

Murphy thought about it and understood that the current Windows system is not what it will look like in the future, so they probably haven't seen the innovative design that only appeared on win95.

"Make a start menu."

Murphy said.

"It is the most conspicuous and commonly used button on the desktop. It is placed at the bottom left of the screen. It puts all basic functions, such as shutdown, standby, etc., in the pop-up first-level interface, and then puts those small functions you mentioned, They are all placed in the secondary interface, and all functions in the computer should be found in the start menu.”

"The icon can be in the style of an umbrella logo. It will be the most memorable button for users."

"Next. Network Protocol Group, Asim McPherson."

"Boss, we are encountering a technical problem." Asim didn't even introduce his job this time. He had already seen that the boss was here to make decisions and set the direction, and he was here to solve the problem. He didn't want to listen to everyone bragging about his achievements. In this case, he went straight to the topic.

"In short, we plan to use the TCP/IP protocol to communicate with other hosts on the network. However, if a temporary host applies for an IP and goes offline, because it will occupy this IP address, it may cause new User has no address available..."

Murphy frowned and then understood, "The IP allocation protocol is BOOTP?"

"Yes."

At this time, DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) has not yet appeared, and the addresses assigned to hosts in the network through the BOOTP protocol are permanent addresses. Therefore, temporary users still occupy IPs after they go offline.

"Just change the IP allocation rule to leasing. Any automatically allocated addresses are temporary addresses and are dynamically deferred from the remaining address pool when acquiring addresses."

"The BOOTP protocol is not suitable for wide area networks. Please update it with my ideas."

"Okay, next one..."

The meeting lasted for a whole day. After the meeting, almost everyone had a look of confusion and disbelief on their faces.

"Who is our boss?"

Not only does he understand users, management, and design, he also understands technology. From system architecture to hypertext protocols, there is almost nothing he doesn't understand. Not only does he understand it, he is even very good at it.

For those problems that have troubled them for a long time, the boss often only needs a short period of thinking to grasp the core difficulty, and then provide a feasible solution, or even directly come up with a solution.

What kind of magical giant is this!

"Boss, I said before that this system was designed for future devices, but I was too ignorant. It turns out that you actually have solutions to most of the problems."

Bob Henderson looked at Murphy with half shame and half admiration, "If you had personally presided over the development, maybe the system would have been completed by now."

With his super brain, Murphy was able to sort out his memories without the need for "total recall" at this time. Those advanced concepts from the future and various basic knowledge he had recently supplemented, driven by his super brain power, This is a dimensionality reduction attack on the problems faced by these senior engineers at this moment.

"I am indeed good at some things, and I may be good at more in the future," Murphy smiled, "But I can't do all the work by myself."

Murphy said, patting Bob on the shoulder. The man was originally about the same height as him, but now he has grown two centimeters taller, and this action feels more natural.

"Without your early exploration, I wouldn't be able to predict possible problems and solve them out of thin air. Don't belittle yourself and keep working hard. Before the end of the year, I hope to see the finished product."

In November, Pickett's second animated film "The Legend of the Magic Lamp" was released. A certain Disney producer looked at the original "Aladdin" project that was about to be approved by senior management and felt like it was struck by lightning. For a while, he began to doubt the world. Authenticity.

It was obviously me who came first!

That month, Murphy took a thick stack of original scripts and threw them to Pickett's senior management, "Here are ten scripts. I have arranged the production order. In the next three years, these projects will be your main work. The specific production I won’t be too involved in the process, but I hope you don’t waste these excellent stories.”

Everything that can be done among the top 50 box-office movies in film history is now in your hands. If you still can't do it...

Hmm... If you can't eat the food you put into your mouth, then what's the use of you, why don't you kick them all and keep them for the New Year?

In early December, the development solution-doped photoresist technology was successfully developed, which not only solved the last bottleneck in chip mass production, but also advanced the manufacturing process to 0.2 microns.

The IC design department also accelerated the completion of various chip designs with the help of Murphy. After the chip tape-out was successful in the middle of the year, several chip factories under the umbrella quickly freed up their schedules and began to produce self-developed chips at full capacity.

At the same time, the desktop system has been developed and has officially entered the polishing and optimization stage.

Before Christmas, a prototype was presented to Murphy and Patrick.

The silver-white matte metal body, black flat keyboard, and 21-inch LCD display seem to be in line with the Apple model that is currently leading the design trend in the global electronics industry, but it has been iterated for ten more years. It feels both approachable and approachable. It's warm and comfortable, yet full of technology, as if it comes from the future.

Patrick pressed the circular power button, and the blue LED ambient light immediately lit up. The 300M SSD solid state drive ensured that the machine entered the operation interface within two seconds.

Looking at the simple interface displayed on the flat LCD screen that was only three fingers thick but seemed to include all functional elements, Patrick trembled with excitement.

He opened several programs and operated them for a while. After a while, he grabbed Murphy excitedly and said, "Tell me this is not a dream! Is this really what we made? Such a machine...such a computer is beyond Everything I imagined about a PC!!”

"This is simply... this is something out of science fiction, it's magic! I actually saw it in reality!"

"Incredible! Unimaginable! I can already see the world boiling for it!"

He was as excited as when he first saw Bai Xian Essence. He once again discovered that great product that could change the world.

"Do you like it?" Murphy asked with a smile, "If you like it, hold a press conference and bring it to the world yourself."

Patrick was stunned for a moment, and then a surge of emotion surged in his chest, "You kid..."

Murphy knows that his idol is Gang Leader Qiao, and this is helping him realize his dream.

"This is a moment that will be remembered by history. Are you sure you don't want to do it yourself?"

"What I wanted to do has been accomplished."

“It’s my mission to create products that change the world, but it’s your mission to bring them to users around the world.”

"The spotlight is not for me, it is your honor, my friend."
