Coquettish Rebirth

Osvaldo stared wide-eyed at Jia Hongjian in front of him, "What? Sir? You said it's free?" "Yes, Osvaldo, how big will our market be in this case? Other companies will definitely compete But we, they can only compete in the corporate market in the future!" Jia Hongjian said confidently.

This Osvaldo is the technical director of the Romanian gecad company.Originally, the company's CEO, that is, the founder, immediately took the money to start a new company after selling the company, and the employees in this company were dumped to Jia Hongjian—or Rather, Jia Hongjian directly accepted all the employees.After accepting the employees, Jia Hongjian of course had to stabilize the psychology of the technicians first.So there was such a high-level meeting, and then he explained his thoughts to everyone face-to-face-the idea of ​​​​freedom in the future.

But Osvaldo, the person in charge of the technology, looked at Jia Hongjian with wide eyes in disbelief at this time, "But... But sir... Anti-virus software generally relies on the virus database shared by the industry to increase its own strength. The killing ability... If we were free, they would definitely not share it with us... In this way, we will be isolated, and then we will be left farther and farther in the long run..." Oswal Duo couldn't help but speak out about the unspoken rules in this industry that are not known to outsiders.People who are not in their industry generally really don't know this kind of thing!Who would have guessed that there is actually a behavior similar to sharing virus databases on the Internet in their industry?

From a certain point of view, if you rely on yourself to study viruses.This is not much research after all!How many hackers are there in the world?How many new viruses are there every day in the world?Although hackers are scattered all over the world, the virus does not necessarily stay in their country just like hackers!The virus will spread with the Internet!In this era, it is definitely impossible to expect an anti-virus system that can only be used. It is impossible to expect that the anti-virus software will automatically analyze a virus that has never been seen before, and then kill it if it is found to be bad. Ji doesn't need to analyze the characteristics of [-] viruses every day!

However, although antivirus software companies share and share virus databases, this does not mean that they are intimate with each other—after all, there is still competition between them, so even if they share, it may be a little slower.Possibly a shared virus database.But did not share the corresponding processing method.When dealing with it specifically, the Eight Immortals crossed the sea and each showed their magical powers. In the end, different companies had different antivirus capabilities.

How can you explain that different antivirus software companies have different efficiency in detecting viruses?According to the principle of sharing virus databases, virus databases all over the world should be the same soon!The problem is a company with particularly strong technology and a particularly complete virus database.If he shares the virus database with a small but big company.Isn't this sick?Even if it is shared, it cannot be said that a large company has released [-] viruses.A small company produces a virus, and then everyone shares it?This sharing is definitely limited!It also depends on qualifications!

So if you want to use Chinese words to describe it, this circle of virus software.That is a quack!There are countless unspoken rules in the rivers and lakes!In this arena, each sect is divided into different sizes and has different spheres of influence.At the same time, everyone is intriguing and cooperating with each other. At the same time, everyone is divided into camps. Some small manufacturers revolve around some large manufacturers, and some medium-sized manufacturers may cooperate with each other. But no matter what, everyone is There needs to be an "organization" for that!It's like a character in a martial arts novel. If there is no magical power that falls from the sky, and there are no various adventures, a fledgling young man wants to fight against other sects without any sect. Would it be possible for him to fight?

Jia Hongjian was stunned when he heard this.He really didn't expect such unspoken rules to exist in the antivirus software market!Does your sister play like a Chinese martial arts arena?He had never thought about sharing the virus database before!If it is true according to what Osvaldo said, we will have to fight alone in the future, then no matter how we do this virus database, we will not be able to compete with others!

After all, how many companies are distributed and analyzed together, and Jia Hongjian and the others only have one company here!Unless it is said that Jia Hongjian and the others are particularly awesome here, with huge investment, they directly set up branches in all major countries in the world, and then recruit anti-virus personnel to start analyzing the virus characteristics by themselves, and then rely on this large investment to enrich their own viruses. library.That sounds cool doesn't it?It seems that the uncle doesn't need to ask anyone, he can just rely on himself, right?The question is how much is the investment like this!So your sister's global employees need 10 people to analyze the virus? Even if 10 people are paid an average of $500 a month, is this low enough?A year is 6000 US dollars, and 6 people are [-] million US dollars a year!

Just for this damn virus library, 6 million US dollars will be burned a year manually!In addition to various fixed expenses such as computers, servers, utilities, bandwidth, etc., as well as depreciation fees, etc., as well as various advertisements and other things, it may be necessary to spend 10 billion US dollars a year in it!In the end, it really became Sherlock Holmes' company singled out the world!Although this kind of heads-up is really cool, the question is, after we do this, can the money we earn back make up for these shortfalls?

Although Jia Hongjian said that burning money every year is fine, but just burning money does not mean this kind of burning method!One billion dollars a year is burned down. After Jia Hongjian retires in 2012, does he still want to spend a lot of money?Do you want to live the rest of your life?Even if it is said that the money burned is the company's money, the dividends Jia Hongjian can get will be less if the company's money is burned!In the end, Jia Hongjian had less money to spend!

"Is there nothing we can do?" Jia Hongjian couldn't believe it. He bought anti-virus companies, anti-fraud website companies and so on, and now he is told that this step is wrong?Even if he understood why Kaspersky and the others were not worried or afraid after hearing about the free service, he didn't have time to think about it now, okay?All we have to do now is find a way out! "Other ways?" Osvaldo and his colleagues looked at each other.Everyone began to lower their heads and think for several minutes. Osvaldo looked up at Jia Hongjian helplessly, "Sir, there is really no way, unless we come up with a completely different model, or go now." With such a road, if you want to make it big, you must share the virus database with others..."

It sounded like Osvaldo had sentenced Jia Hongjian to death, but Jia Hongjian refused to accept it!When did he give up so easily?Besides, the Chinese market has never heard of sharing virus databases among antivirus software companies.Aren't those antivirus software companies doing well?And haven't all of them grown stronger?At least in these years it has grown and grown!This proves that the set shared by foreigners is not certain!In individual cases in individual regions.It can be developed without relying on the rules of the rivers and lakes of foreigners!

Since other domestic companies can develop by mistake, why can't he, Jia Hongjian?So at this time, Jia Hongjian's brain was running at full speed, although Jia Hongjian didn't know much about this business.But he has a smart brain!Although we don't know a lot of basic knowledge.Even if we don't understand many unspoken rules.But this is not the time to be afraid of losing face, not the time to talk about face!This is related to tens of millions of euros!Are we afraid of losing face in front of money?And what if we think of a direction that no one else has thought of with our heads?So at this time, Jia Hongjian hurriedly asked Osvaldo to describe in detail the operating rules of their "traditional" antivirus software industry.

"Our traditional operation rule is to analyze viruses, analyze a large number of discovered and reported viruses every day. Then analyze their characteristics, and then use the signature codes to allow our software to detect viruses, and then kill the viruses with the update of the virus database. However, sometimes the judgment of the signature of the virus database will be wrong. For example, some normal software is mistaken for a virus, and then it is killed by mistake. Generally, this can be solved by reporting... Overall Generally speaking, in the modern antivirus software industry, the competition is who has the largest virus database. Basically, whoever has the largest virus database shows that the killing rate is higher..." Osvaldo said piecemeal Talked a lot, about half an hour in total.

After listening to Jia Hongjian for a while, he suddenly felt that he had vaguely discovered something—"Wait! You said just now... excellent anti-virus software is actually a competition whose virus database is bigger? In this way If so, will there be a day when everyone's virus database will be too large, reaching several gigabytes, and the machine will be extremely huge?" That's right!Jia Hongjian remembered that in his previous life, he had an old machine that hadn't been updated for several years. What kind of Kaspersky or the like was used to turn it on? It was called a card!As a result, after using Microsoft's mse, the boot speed is very fast!According to this statement, then it should be the reason why Kaspersky's virus database is too large?Just like there are too many and too big software that needs to be started by default when booting up, will it slow down the speed?

"It is possible, but generally speaking, the computer industry has a Moore's Law, and the development speed of computers is always very fast, so unless consumers do not update their computers for ten years, we estimate that the virus database will not let the The computer card can’t be used. After all, in the long run, people are always going to die, but we can’t say that if we die in the future, we won’t live now…” Osvaldo explained.

"Oh...relying on Moore's Law?" Jia Hongjian thought about his previous life experience. Indeed, using Kaspersky on the new machine is indeed much faster than the old machine.But the problem is that the new machine still slows down the startup speed!The current anti-virus software industry is purely in a situation similar to treating headaches and feet, purely using the most stupid methods to continuously accumulate virus types and characteristics, and then find ways to deal with viruses... Then we Can you think of a way to achieve something similar to once and for all?Can we stop the traditional way of treating the symptoms and not the root cause, and instead treat both the symptoms and the root causes?Jia Hongjian fell into deep thought.

Indeed, he also knows that his deep thinking may be seen as funny by those in the industry.Maybe those professionals will say-I rely on this business for a living, and I don’t think as much as you, a boss who doesn’t understand anything?We have thought about it thousands of times before you can think about it!But the problem is that now, if Jia Hongjian is lucky enough to come up with a problem that professionals have not thought of due to various reasons, he will post it!His investments will be successful!
