Qin Feng had a headache, and unexpectedly, he learned a new news in the inner domain.

THAT IS, THERE ARE TWO COMPANIES THAT ARE DEVELOPING LINUX TODAY.

One is the VA Linux mentioned by Qin Feng, which belongs to Japan. The other is Red Hat Linux.

This is a local American company.

At the moment, the company is not very large.

After all, they haven't been listed. The size of the company is naturally small.

IN PARTICULAR, IT'S LINUX. DON'T LOOK AT THE INDUSTRY'S BOASTING, THEY ARE VERY OPTIMISTIC THAT LINUX CAN REPLACE MICROSOFT.

HOWEVER, IN FACT, AS A 'REBORN', QIN FENG NATURALLY KNOWS THAT LINUX HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO END MICROSOFT IN HIS LIFE.

LINUX WAS BEATEN BY MICROSOFT WITHOUT BEING ABLE TO FIGHT BACK, AND IT CAN BE SAID THAT IT WAS A COMPLETE FAILURE.

Even if Microsoft finally changed Windows to a free system, it was not because of LINUX.

It's because of the rise of Android.

OF COURSE, ANDROID IS ALSO DEVELOPED FROM LINUX.

BUT ON THE DESKTOP SYSTEM, LINUX HAS NEVER SUCCEEDED.

HOWEVER, IT IS NOT EXCLUDED THAT ALL WALKS OF LIFE ARE NOW OPTIMISTIC ABOUT LINUX.

BUT AT THE MOMENT, NO LINUX COMPANY CAN BE PROFITABLE.

Going public is all about making money.

After Qin Feng got the information about Red Hat Linux, that is, the two founders of Red Hat, he flew directly to a small city called Dehan in Durham County, North Carolina, USA.

Such a little-known one, you can imagine how sluggish the company is.

The most famous of Dehan is Duke University in the city.

This is a prestigious school in the United States.

Other than that, there is nothing else.

The only thing that is still a little famous is that tobacco cultivation is well developed here.

Obviously, this is not a good reputation. Although it can make money, tobacco itself is harmful.

It belongs to human beings, and it is a product that meets the diverse needs of individuals after affluence.

Not a necessity.

When Qin Feng flew to Dehan, he had the feeling of coming to the countryside.

Here, it's really remote enough, and it's backward enough.

Of course, although it seems backward, in fact the people's lives are not bad.

The so-called backwardness is a kind of shallow cognition in the senses.

This is also the general perception of most Chinese people abroad after going abroad in the future.

Backward! The whole world is backward relative to China.

However, the quality of life of ordinary people is very high.

Food freedom is basically achieved, and most people, after a period of hard work, are also able to achieve financial freedom.

In order to find this Red Hat company, Qin Feng also took a lot of effort.

The reason is simple, it's really small.

The company, really small.

The city itself is not large, and its urban scale is equivalent to a town in Huaxia.

In a town, there are no iconic high-rise buildings.

Most of them are several storeys high, which is already considered the city center.

And for a small company, it is naturally impossible to rent an office building in the city center.

Even if the price of office space here is less than one-tenth of that of New York.

After Qin Feng inquired, he found Red Hat's corporate headquarters in a row of two-story office areas.

After entering, the company is really not big.

In addition to the two founders, Qin Feng glanced at it, and there were 10 staff members.

Really a micro, small and medium-sized enterprise.

It's just, is it possible for such a small company to go public at the end of this year?

However, Qin Feng thought about it, it was not impossible.

The NASDAQ is not like the domestic stock market.

The NASDAQ is not strictly vetted, and basically most of them can be listed as long as you apply.

As for what happens after listing, it is up to you to use your company's real performance to speak.

You can't fake it. If you want to commit fraud, you will be prosecuted by the Securities and Futures Commission and will commit a criminal offense.

Unlike the domestic stock market. It is very strict to enter, and you must have all the information in all aspects. Such a small company would never have been able to go public.

It can be said that in the process of listing, there are many difficult processes. Why is it difficult, then it is tacit.

The stricter the scrutiny, the greater the human factor.

The greater the human factor, the more it says a lot.

And after the listing, it will be sky-high. Play however you want. Financial fraud information comes out at every turn, and as a result, the profit of 100 million through the stock market is only a fine of hundreds of thousands.

With such a low crime rate, anyone will commit a crime.

But fortunately, the purpose of Qin Feng's trip is to hope that it will be as small as possible.

"Hello, I'm the Qin Feng I mentioned on the phone before. Qin Feng stretched out his hand.

"Mr. Qin, hello, I'm Bobo, CEO of Red Hat, and this is my partner Yiyun. Bobo said.

The three of them sat down in an extremely small office.

The two of them were very curious about Qin Feng's arrival.

I don't know what Qin Feng is going to do?

Of course, they have some vague speculation.

For Qin Feng, they also know a little.

FACEBOOK WAS CREATED, AND ALTHOUGH IT WAS A NEWLY CREATED COMPANY, IT WAS VERY BIG AND CAUSED A LOT OF SENSATIONS.

For example, a $10,000 bounty is offered to find bugs. They can't do such an arrogant behavior.

It's too arrogant.

"I WANT TO KNOW, DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS ABOUT LINUX?" QIN FENG THOUGHT FOR A WHILE, "DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS FOR THE FUTURE?"

"Thoughts?" the two were stunned.

"LINUX MUST BE THE NEW ERA OPERATING SYSTEM THAT BEATS MICROSOFT, AND OPEN SOURCE IS EVERYTHING. Bobo said.

"Yes, Microsoft's closed system will be eliminated sooner or later. Microsoft's brilliance is only temporary. In particular, win98 has so many bugs, and sooner or later it will be eliminated by the market. Eyun agreed.

"BUT I WANT TO SAY THAT IN MY LIFETIME, LINUX WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DEFEAT MICROSOFT, AND WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO REPLACE MICROSOFT'S WINDOWS SYSTEM ON THE DESKTOP SYSTEM, DO YOU BELIEVE IT?" QIN FENG SAID SUDDENLY.

When the two of them heard this, their faces immediately changed greatly, and they immediately stood up.

"Qin Feng, don't speculate for more than half a sentence, please!" Bobo was furious.

"We don't talk to Microsoft's doglegs. Yi Yun rebuked even more coldly.

Qin Feng grinned.

"Doglegs, you think I'm from Microsoft?" Qin Feng shook his head, "You should have heard of the Win-Tel Alliance. And my Kyushu chip is Intel's number one enemy. Do you think I'm going to be Microsoft's dogleg?"

The two of them looked a little warmer, but they still looked bad.

Because, Qin Feng was reprimanding their hard work.

"You two, it's better to sit down and chat. Qin Feng gestured, "At least, you have to listen to me finish speaking, don't you?" I've come all the way from Boston, and you don't want to know why I'm saying that!"

The two thought for a moment and sat down.

Let's listen to what Qin Feng has to say first.

If it doesn't work, just drive it away.

"LINUX IS OPEN SOURCE, AND OPEN SOURCE REALLY REPRESENTS THE FUTURE. HOWEVER, ALL THOSE WHO SUPPORT LINUX IGNORE ONE POINT, AND THAT IS THE USER STICKINESS OF MICROSOFT SYSTEMS. Qin Feng said.

User stickiness? The two frowned.
