Reborn Xiangjiang as a Tycoon

Chapter 213 Office software completed

"Start entering the hotel's daily revenue and calculate the revenue data for the entire month."

"Deduct all expenses and calculate the profit for the month and the average daily profit."

In an extremely simple office software, as the relevant data is entered, the desired relevant results are quickly calculated.

On the other side, the manual team that specially hired an accountant to conduct comparative statistics is still calculating.

"I declare that the development of office software has been successful!"

Lin Baicheng clapped his hands and announced loudly. In order to verify, this is not the first time for a similar comparison. The data processing function of office software is more convenient and faster than manual processing.

"Great!" "YES!" "Ouch~~".

R&D staff such as Edyn Sherland and Peter Roslin cheered loudly. After several months of hard work, the goal was achieved and the results appeared.

This office software is actually very simple. It has only three main functions, namely word processing, data processing and database. There is nothing you can do about it. After all, it is 1978. It has functions such as image processing and video processing.

It's simply impossible to achieve.

Word processing is mainly used for text editing, typesetting, proofreading, etc. It allows office workers to quickly and easily organize various needs, improve office quality and efficiency, and achieve paperless office.

The main function of data processing is to process various data, the typical representative of which is spreadsheets. Data from all walks of life can be calculated through spreadsheets. It is not only highly efficient, but also accurate and less error-prone.

The database is a place used to store data. The amount of data that the database can store is related to the computer's memory. The retained data can be easily viewed at any time.

Isabella clapped her hands and said: "BOSS has decided to hold a celebration party at the company tonight. No one is allowed to be absent. Let's have fun then."

"Wow!!"

There was a burst of howling ghosts and wolves in the office.

Various parties have become a culture in the United States, so when Isabella asked Lin Baicheng for instructions to hold a celebration party, Lin Baicheng had no objection. Since you want to make money in this country, you must blend in and not be out of place.

The company's office software has been developed, but for the company, this is only the first step. The next step is to sell the software. If the software cannot bring profits to the company, then there is no point in using the software no matter how easy it is.

.

However, the software has just been developed today, and there will be a celebration party tonight. Now is not the time to discuss this.

Those who attended the celebration party that night were all employees of New Century Software Company.

Lin Baicheng also participated. Except for a few female employees at New Century Software Company, all of them are men, so they specially invited some models to come over tonight. These models are just here to drink and play, but if the employees have the ability to bring the models to

If we take them home for the night, the company won't care.

The next day, a meeting was held to discuss how to sell office software.

Regarding sales, Lin Baicheng and Isabella already have ideas. The meeting and discussion are just to convey their ideas and let the management know. After all, they are the company's management, and it is impossible for them to do this kind of thing all at once.

Nothing is known.

Office software is used on computers, but in this era, the personal computer market has just begun, and large computers are the mainstream.

Those who buy large computers are usually official administrative departments, banks, hospitals, schools, large enterprises, etc. These institutions purchase computers for office use, so office software can be sold to these units and enterprises in a targeted manner.

Of course, we cannot give up on the personal computer market. Those who can afford personal computers these days are wealthy families, so most of them also have office needs and are potential customers.

After the meeting about sales, Lin Baicheng called Edn Sherland and Peter Rosling into the office. Although Edn Sherland was the head of the R&D department, Peter Rosling was also very capable.

Therefore, when it comes to software development, of course, Peter Roslin must be brought along.

"Adern, Peter."

Looking at the two people, Lin Baicheng said: "Now that the office software has been developed, the task of your software R&D department from now on, in addition to upgrading the existing office software and developing more functions in depth, is to develop new other software.

"

Adern Sherland heard this and asked: "BOSS, do you have any ideas about the direction of the new software development?"

"It already exists, it's the database function of office software."

Lin Baicheng nodded. He had already had an idea about this and said it immediately: "I hope you can expand the database functions, conduct independent research and development, and organize, store, and manage the data through divided structures to form a data warehouse.

.”

"It is a collection of large amounts of data that is stored in a computer for a long time, is organized, shareable, and uniformly managed. It has a large storage space and can store millions, tens of millions, hundreds of millions or even more

The data."

"The database does not store data randomly, but has certain rules, which is the division structure I mentioned earlier to form an organization, so that query efficiency will be higher."

"As for the data sources in the database, we can collect them slowly. There is no rush. After all, the software has not been developed yet."

Lin Baicheng expressed the concept of database in his mind. He believed that the future of this software will not be small, because the development of the Internet is inseparable from data.

Adern Sherland couldn't help but said: "BOSS, to store so much data, you need a much larger server."

Peter Roslin also said: "This kind of large server can only be purchased from IBM, and the price is not cheap."

Lin Baicheng smiled and said: "It's not like buying now, develop the software first, and don't worry about the company not having money to buy servers."

The boss, Lin Baicheng, said so. Of course Edn Sherland would not say anything on this point, but said: "Boss, regarding the development of software, I may still need your guidance at that time."

"This time I will only give you guidance when you encounter difficulties, and I will leave the usual research and development work to you."

It is certainly impossible for Lin Baicheng to stay at New Century Software Company every day. After all, he has many careers. At most, he can provide solutions when R&D encounters problems, instead of immersing himself in software development like an engineer.

Although Adern Sherland and Peter Roslin were a little regretful when they heard this, they had no choice but to ask Lin Baicheng to be the boss. They could never ask the boss to do the same thing as them, or even do it better than them. Then

What else does the company want them to do?
