Originally, I wanted to take a break over the weekend, but I saw a lot of fans who "defended Lei Jun" in the circle of friends and the comment area of the article, saying that Xiaomi has core technology, Thor, Lei has core technology, and has strong R&D strength.
I replied a few times with my Redmi9A, it's not smooth, k20pro is broken, Huzi's NOTE11 5G doesn't work, but inspiration is like a spring, so simply write a paragraph about Lei Jun.
A long, long time ago, in a small N-tier town, a pair of intellectuals gave birth to a boy, and that was in 1969.
His parents were teachers, and at that time he was the absolute top class of the region, and the little boy liked to disassemble the radio, television, etc., and his father encouraged him.
You can't do this hobby without the support of your parents, because it was expensive to buy those things, especially in those days.
But his father spent money to buy him those things, and the interest in radio that he cultivated as a child led him to choose the field of smartphones when he started his business again at the age of 40.
He is Lei Jun.
What is Lei Jun's background? Of course, it can't be compared with "Parents' Love", but at that time, when ordinary people couldn't even eat a meal of white noodles, I won't talk about it.
I have always had a big illusion when I watch "Parents' Love", I always feel that the name is wrong, in the current online writing method, it should be "The Commander Hopelessly Fell in Love with a Cold and Glamorous Rich Girl", is it much more pleasing to the eye?
That's not love, it's the flower of desire watered by power and money.
There is a similar feeling of "Ordinary World", which has always been at the forefront of university reading, and I have also read it, but what I have always wondered is that there are three brothers in the Shaoping family, one of whom is in love with the daughter of the county magistrate.
There is only one county magistrate in a county, and you tell me that this is an ordinary world?
They are all young people who eat flatbread and draw flatbread
Lei Jun has been a "child of other people's families" since he was a child, studying hard, working hard, and believing that as long as he is willing to endure hardships, the iron rod can become a needle.
It only took Lei Jun two years to complete the credits required for graduation, and at the same time, he also got a high level of A+ in his graduation project. Lei Jun said on many public occasions that he was more introverted, not good at talking, and did not like to engage in interpersonal relationships.
Science and engineering men are like this, don't force it if you have nothing to do, don't force it if you have something, just do it.
In fact, Lei Jun has his own set of interpersonal philosophy, and one of his homework is to play the dormitory activity of "tractor", playing poker can promote the interpersonal relationship between his roommates, and also establish a low-level leadership foundation for Lei Jun to lead the Jinshan team of 100 people.
Playing poker builds the foundation for leadership at the bottom.
Hahaha, the world is a grass platform.
Lei Jun started programming while he was in college, earning extra money, and a lot. Later, after graduating from university, Lei Jun met the real "god" of the software industry at a computer exhibition, and begged Bojun.
How does it feel?
Academic point, I met the master of Lou Tiancheng with my classmates in the computer industry;
For business, I met with Jobs and Musk with the current Internet people;
The blockchain is just like the prediction of the coin speculation in the village.
In the social way, I met Brother Ding with the three pioneers of Wangmiao Village in "Tiandaoli".
Ask Bojun to draw a big cake for Lei Jun, a man from Beipiao Institute of Technology~ Come on, boy, make a Chinese version of office with me.
At that time, Windows was rampant all over the world, and office was unique in martial arts, and it was no different from today. Domestic R&D personnel are also gearing up, vowing to be independent and make their own operating systems and office software.
Lei Jun was naturally enthusiastic when he heard it, young people, they all came over like this.
At the beginning, I felt that the sky would descend on the people, and I became the sixth employee of Jinshan. After that, many stories became familiar.
At the age of 28, he became the general manager of Jinshan;
Zhongguancun model worker;
The most dazzling software star, WPS was thrown off by the office, the employees were scattered, and the wages were unsustainable;
After the whole outfit, he took the Long March Road, focusing on the three main business lines of WPS, Jinshan Drug Tyrant, and online games, and continued to die;
But there was no major improvement, Jinshan began to prepare for listing in 1999, and it took 8 years to successfully go public in 2007.
During this period, Lenovo, Sina, Sohu, NetEase, Ctrip, and Baidu were all listed one after another, but this was not the most depressing for Lei Jun, and the most depressing thing for Lei Jun should be that even if Jinshan was listed in 2007, the stock price was just a little.
At present, the Kingsoft software of Hong Kong stocks is 32.2 billion, Kingsoft Cloud is 6.3 billion, and even the Kingsoft Office of A-shares is only 134.3 billion.
The same workers do not have the same life
It should be said that Lei Jun is a veteran of R&D and an excellent R&D personnel.
Even today, WPS is still one of the few independent software that is okay in domestic software.
Don't mess around with me, what QQ, Taobao, Pinduoduo, Genshin Impact, we don't say the same thing.
In 2007, Lei Jun was 38 years old, Kingsoft was listed, but he was not happy at all, he worked in Kingsoft for 16 years, carried the listing for 8 years, and worked almost 16 hours a day. The model worker is not covered.
Now it is the norm for Shenzhen's code farmers to take a taxi to go home for a few days a month, although many buses in Shenzhen are the last one at 10:30 in the evening.
In the second week of Kingsoft's listing, Lei Jun resigned as CEO of Kingsoft on the grounds that he was in good health.
In China, doing R&D is hard, very hard, and only those who have done it know it.
That is, Lei Jun, became the general manager at the age of 28, otherwise he would not have had the opportunity to be a code farmer to engage in research and development until the age of 38, and now he is a director in a large factory at the age of 38.
According to the grapevine, Lei Jun was because the intern repaired the computer and emptied the code he wrote, which made Lei Jun die and stop stumbling on the code.
Linux, the world's most widely used and arguably the greatest open-source operating system, was also born in 1969, the same age as Lei Jun.
In Time magazine's list of the 100 most important people of the twentieth century based on readers' votes, Linus is ranked 15th, while Gates, who has been the world's richest man since the last years of the 20th century, is only 17th.
It's really not interesting to make money, and it's the awesome Klaas who contributes to humanity.
Linux was first written by Linus in 1991 when he was 21 years old when he was in college (University of Helsinki).
Inspired by the spirit of Richard Stallman, the father of free software, Linus quickly added Linux to the Free Software Foundation's (FSF) GNU project, and through the GPL, it allows users to sell, copy, and modify programs, but you must pass on the same freedom, and you must make your modified code freely available.
There is a difference between people, college students of the same age, Lei Jun is selling software to do business, Linus is stupidly writing operating systems, and they want to open it to the world for free.
So what did Linus do after he developed Linux?
Until 2005, Linux kernel development was based on BitKeeper, a commercial version control system. When BitKeeper stopped offering free services, and because all the other version control systems couldn't meet his needs, Linus Torvalds developed a new tool on his own, Git.
This Git, doesn't it look familiar?
In June 2018, Microsoft announced the acquisition of GitHub for $7.5 billion, and now GitHub is basically a paradise for developers around the world. It is no exaggeration to say that owning GitHub is equivalent to owning the world's intelligent brains.
Now the so-called AI, the best artificial intelligence, is indispensable to github.
GitHub is a Git-based code hosting platform, hence the name github.
Take off your plaid shirt and put on your suit to be a businessman
Isn't it confusing to see any of the above? Bored? You've probably never heard of this person.
But his impact on the world is indeed great. A hundred years from now, people will dig out the dictionary and find such a person, like the Darwin and Einstein statues we saw on the walls in the hallways when we were in middle school.
Although Linus can't compare with them, in the world of computers, which is closer to the world that humans can understand, he plays no less role than the aforementioned Frankenstein uncles.
After Jinshan went public in 2007, Lei Jun breathed a sigh of relief, as a manager, ran a Chinese company, and painted cakes for employees for so many years, and finally ate it, although it was not satisfactory.
The next Lei Jun is to take advantage of the trend.
The past life is not success in the secular sense of the country, Lei Jun once had a dream, but a dream is a dream after all, once it is related to business, it is neither pure nor ideal.
Kong Yiji was reluctant to take off his long shirt, and Lei Jun was willing to take off his plaid shirt, put on a suit, and become a businessman.
It is often said that scholars and science and engineering men have no emotional intelligence and IQ, and they are not useful.
This is a fallacy, and different people have different understandings of this "use".
In the eyes of Linnas, it is different from that of Ma Yun, Wang Jianlin and even Lei Jun, who later took advantage of the trend.
The key thing is that you have to see which one you want?
After Lei Jun took advantage of the trend, he founded Xiaomi mobile phone, which is a relative success, but it has not yet reached the secular success in his heart.
Now he has founded Xiaomi Auto in order to achieve success in the secular sense.
But whether it is a Xiaomi mobile phone or a Xiaomi car, in fact, there seems to be some shadows of science and engineering men and Zhongguancun model workers.
It's hard to escape the influence of your origin.
What is Linus, the same age as Lei Jun, doing now?
At some developer conferences in recent years, Linner admitted that he now has a small group of top developers working with a small group of top developers, and when there is a new task, he knows who to assign it to.
In addition to the overall communication and coordination, Linus himself is also responsible for the merge code, and the Linux kernel is released every three months (about 70 days), even when traveling in different countries, Linus has to overcome the time difference to release on time.
"I read emails, I reply to emails, and I've long since stopped programming," he says. Most of my code is written in emails. Somebody sends me a patch, or more generally a requirement, or a discussion about the next requirement, and I respond by sending some pseudocode. Sometimes, I write a patch and send it out, without even compiling and testing it, because that's what I wrote in the email. That's what I do, I'm a programmer long gone. ”
"I read a lot more emails than I write, because my job is really to say no. When other programmers do something wrong, I have to say no, and they take it more seriously. Of course, I had to know everything to be able to say no, otherwise I wouldn't be able to do the job, so I spent most of my time reading emails to see what everyone was doing...... It's a lot of fun to work on. ”
Yesterday, after an article was added again by 100,000, I posted a status:
After my roommate Huzi saw it, he looked at me with disdain, and hummed a few words with his nose: Just you, why compare with Lei Jun?
Hey, the oppressive education that lives to the old and humiliates to the old.
