Chapter 230: Preparing to Develop a New Computer Operating System (Part 2/3)

“At two in the afternoon. Going too early, I estimate the dean won’t be in,” Tang Feng answered.

“In that case, we’ll leave together. I’ll go talk to Teacher Li! I’ve got my eye on a few promising projects, and I want to discuss them with her and seek her advice,” Su Xiaoli said.

“What are the projects related to? The internet?” Tang Feng asked.

“Only one is related to the internet. The rest are in traditional industries,” Su Xiaoli answered.

“What aspect does the internet project cover?” Tang Feng continued to ask.

“Games.”

“Games?” Tang Feng paused noticeably at the word.

“Yes,” Su Xiaoli nodded, saying, “Online games are very popular right now and have strong earning potential.”

“I’m not against online games. After all, the era is progressing. However, I am against minors playing games. After all, minors should prioritize their studies,” Tang Feng expressed his stance.

“That’s probably impossible to restrict. At least, with the current level of technology, it’s definitely impossible,” Su Xiaoli shook her head.

“It is indeed difficult to restrict. Mainly, parental cooperation is needed. If parents do not cooperate, then whatever measures game companies take will be in vain,” Tang Feng also sighed.

Before his rebirth, he was a deep lover of online games.

However, the game he mainly played was “Fantasy Westward Journey ” developed by NetEase.

He played intermittently for about fifteen years.

Since “Fantasy Westward Journey ” was a card-based game, compared to the later free-to-play games that became explosively popular, there was a gap in the number of players.

“Online games are a product of the times; it’s impossible to stop them. Moreover, there are quite a few online games being imported from abroad. We need to find a way to develop domestic games, aiming not only to beat those foreign online games but also to export them, creating foreign exchange,” Su Xiaoli said lightly.

“You’re right,” Tang Feng nodded, saying, “Online gaming is a huge market! I’ll talk to Ma Huateng sometime, aiming to enter this market as soon as possible.”

“Ma Huateng? Why do you want to find him?” Su Xiaoli wondered.

“Because the uu chat software has several hundred million users. No matter what kind of game it is, as long as it has a sufficient number of users, it will definitely make money,” Tang Feng answered.

“How about this? The online gaming company I plan to invest in has a pretty good reputation in the industry. If we can get this online gaming company to provide game content for Li Feng Network, then both sides can definitely make a good amount of money,” Su Xiaoli discussed with him.

“That’s a good idea!” Tang Feng nodded, saying, “Leave professional matters to professionals, which is naturally the most appropriate. Find a time to introduce the head of this online gaming company to Ma Huateng, to see if cooperation is possible.”

Su Xiaoli was very excited!

Her idea being approved by Tang Feng was indeed a joyous matter for her!

After eating, Tang Feng rested for a while, then went to the Computer Science Department of Jingcheng University.

Along the way, many students greeted him!

For these students, Tang Feng was already like a godlike figure!

“It’s unbelievable! I actually ran into Tang Feng at school! I thought he had already left our school!”

“He must be here on business! After all, he has spent so long at Jingcheng University, he still has some connections here.”

“Isn’t that wrong? Wasn’t he the head of the Math Department at Jingcheng University before? I haven’t heard about any new head.”

“Maybe they haven’t found a suitable one yet? I saw on the news the other day, the host introduced him as the chief designer of the Beidou Phase Two project! This level, should be higher than a department head of Mathematics.”

“Maybe he’s doing it part-time! After all, looking at the whole of China, no one is better in math than Tang Feng!”

“But I really didn’t expect him to be so amazing in the field of navigation satellites too! This should be considered crossing fields, right?”

“Definitely crossing fields! Although some knowledge of math might be used in navigation satellites, it’s not to the extent that a mathematician would be appointed as the chief designer.”

“When will I be able to be like him? I’m already a senior and about to graduate! I haven’t published a decent paper yet!”

“Stop dreaming here! So many chief designers in China’s aerospace field are mostly grey-haired! To be as young as him, even on a global scale, probably he’s the only one!”

“How does his brain work! He must have a photographic memory!”

“Photographic memory is useless! Those world-class memory masters haven’t made any significant contributions! The most important thing is logical reasoning ability.”

Hearing these discussions among the students, Tang Feng barely held back his laughter.

It seems that no matter the school, even the students of Jingcheng University are no exception.

They still like to gossip!

They still envy, jealous, and hate!

Before long, he arrived at the Computer Science Department.

The students of the Computer Science Department also greeted him.

“Director Tang!” Yang Zhiyong came in from outside.

“Dean Yang, you’re just in time! I came here specifically to find you,” Tang Feng said.

“Looking for me? Come! Let’s talk in my office!” Yang Zhiyong invited.

Then, the two went to the dean’s office.

“Director Tang! Congratulations! I really didn’t expect you to be the chief designer of the Beidou Phase Two project! I was shocked when I saw you on TV,” Yang Zhiyong said.

“It’s mainly thanks to Academician Sun. If he hadn’t insisted on giving his chief designer position to me, I wouldn’t have become the chief designer,” Tang Feng responded.

“Director Tang, you don’t need to be so modest. Academician Sun letting you be the chief designer proves you are capable! Of course, the results speak for everything! The Beidou Phase Two project was planned to be completed in four years, but it was finished in less than half a year! You really played an indispensable role!” Yang Zhiyong couldn’t stop praising.

“It’s mainly the colleagues in the team who were committed. They devoted all their efforts to the project. I mostly provided guidance,” Tang Feng smiled.

“You!” Yang Zhiyong couldn’t help but shake his head.

“Dean Yang, let’s talk business. I came here to discuss with you the possibility of your department leading the development of a new computer operating system,” Tang Feng stated his purpose.

“Director Tang, to be honest, I really want to do this! But if it’s just our department, it definitely won’t work!” Yang Zhiyong showed a troubled expression.

“It’s not just you; I’ll be working with everyone! Let’s see if we can make this happen! After all, we’re currently using Microsoft’s system. Considering both economic and security reasons, we can’t continue like this,” Tang Feng volunteered.
