1inuxtorva1ds and Briel froze for a moment.
After working hard for so many years with their passion for 1inux, they suddenly had the most realistic problem: yes, they didn't think about 1inux from the user's point of view.
Lin Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "That's right, now 1inux is in an unprecedented vigorous exhibition, but in fact, we all know that the governments of various countries are interested in 1inux, and the possible vulnerabilities and backdoors of indos make them have to consider their own information security, if there is an operating system that can replace indos and be more secure and reliable, of course they will support this operating system, 1inux can go so far, and the support of governments of various countries is indispensable." β
Although reluctant to inherit,1inuxtorva1ds and Briel still nodded silently,1inux has aroused strong interest from governments around the world since its appearance,The Finnish government is the main financial supporter of the 1inux system,Without the support of the government,1inuxtorva1ds can not imagine whether 1inux can go to this day,The government in the 1inux exhibition reflects the role of promotion is incomparable to any computer and network disk enthusiastsγ
"I've heard that international large computer manufacturers such as IBM and HP are also interested in 1inux, but they prefer to deploy 1inux into their server products. But the question is, the same question I just mentioned, how can server vendors like IBM and HP convince companies that are interested in buying servers to use 1inux? The free 1inux system has become the most worrying thing for enterprise users. They don't care about spending some money to keep their company's data secure and servers running steadily, but they definitely don't want to take advantage of it. β
"IBM and HP want to convince their customers, there are only two ways, one is to organize their own 1inux system research and development team, actively communicate with 1inux enthusiasts on the network, absorb their wisdom to improve their products, and finally provide paid system maintenance services to customers they persuade; The second option is to work with you and pay you a fee to open a 1inux system that is specifically optimized for their system. It's the only possible way to do 1inux, but it's strange to me if big companies like IBM and HP are willing to do that, whether they're going to take the lifeblood of their company into someone else's hands, and it's going against the open-source, free tenets that you set out at the 1inux show. Have you never thought about these questions? β
1inuxtorva1ds and Briel were sweating profusely, they really didn't think about such a long-term problem, especially 1inux, from the prototype of the 1inux system in 1991 to the current version 1.O. He is more immersed in the sea of technology and cannot extricate himself. But he completely forgot to think about the more distant future for his "children", no one has ever said these words to him, with the financial support of governments and foundations, he naturally does not have to worry about funds and life, and naturally he will not think about this problem.
Lin Zheng's words were like a lightning bolt that broke through the heavens and the earth, waking 1inuxtorva1ds from the self-world he had created before, and he grabbed Lin Zheng's hand eagerly, even a little panicked, "Lin, do you have answers to these questions?" β
1inux is his child. I have invested countless blood and feelings in it, just like watching my children grow up day by day. Hoping that he can meet a cute girl to fall in love, get married, have children, and have a family of his own, 1inuxtorva1ds definitely doesn't want to see his child end up becoming a "single" that no girl likes.
"I've only recently thought about this problem," Lin Zheng spread his hands and said with a wry smile, "I don't think it's an easy problem to solve......
"Oh......" 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel's faces were a little disappointed, they thought that Lin Zheng had said so much, what good way would there be, it turned out that this was not the case, but faintly, the two of them felt a little comfortable in their hearts: this is right, this is normal......
Before all the thoughts in their hearts came out, Lin Zheng continued slowly, "But I have a little idea." β
"What?" 1inuxtorva1ds' eyes snapped: got an idea? How can it be?
It's incredible, just now this guy was still saying that he was thinking about this, obviously there is no way to do it, there is an idea in the blink of an eye?
Briel still couldn't accept it in his heart, but 1inuxtorva1ds couldn't care so much, his reaction was like those mothers who saw that their son was 3o old and didn't have a partner when they heard that someone was willing to introduce someone to their son, and grabbed Lin Zheng's hand in surprise, "Lin, you really have a way?" β
"I can't say a way, it's just an idea," Lin Zheng quietly pulled his hand out of 1inuxtorva1ds's hand, he was very unaccustomed to being held by a man in such a ** way, and said, "One is under the premise of open source, can you do some customized services?" According to the needs of customers, this system can be greatly improved in a certain function? For example, for those users who pay attention to security, they can build a security-oriented system for them, and for those customers who pay attention to stability, a more stable system is tailor-made, of course, these are charged, and in the process, those who have contributed their wisdom should be given a certain amount of economic material, which can be regarded as an affirmation of their knowledge and contribution...... Do you think that they, including yours, are worthless? β
1inuxtorva1ds subconsciously shook his head: Of course not, no one thinks their knowledge is worthless.
But for Lin Zheng's decision, they instinctively rejected it: Is this kind of 1inux still the open-source, free 1inux that they insist on? As a firm believer in the concept of open source, in their opinion, this is simply the beginning of the commercialization of 1inux, which goes against the original spirit of 1inux.
"Is there any other way?" 1inuxtorva1ds shook his head and asked Lin Zheng.
"This method will not work, and the other method will not be said, I guess you will not agree to it." Lin Zheng said with a wry smile.
Of course, there is a better way, but this requires the wireless transmission degree of the telecom operators in various countries to reach a considerable degree, but Lin Zheng did not plan to say this method.
It's just that Lin Zheng's expression fell in the eyes of 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel and immediately skewed: probably this other method is a more radical commercialization strategy, which of course doesn't work.
With this awareness, the three of them intentionally or unintentionally avoided this topic in the subsequent exchanges, and the content of the exchange was more limited to the process of technology, and the simple technical exchange was much more open and horizontal, from the general direction of the exhibition to the technical framework, from the future to the application of 1inux...... As for the details such as technology, with the level and attainments of the three people, they don't need to be taught by others, and when it comes to their process, it is more about their personal vision and ability to think and create, as for the details of "code migrant workers", it is not what they consider at all.
The three of them chatted very happily, and during dinner, Lin Zheng also warmly left 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel to eat here, and he had a treat.
Taking advantage of this gap, Tan Na pulled Lin Zheng aside and asked in a puzzled whisper, "Why didn't you tell them about porting the 1inux system to the handheld device?" β
Taking this opportunity to talk to 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel about porting the 1inux system to the handheld electronic device may have been decided by Lin Zheng before, but what made her strange was that Lin Zheng had never talked to 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel about this issue, and she had just been quietly listening to the three of them chatting and played the role of a listener very well, and now as soon as 1inuxtorva1ds and Briel left, she immediately couldn't help it.
"Don't you show up, it's not the time to talk to them about this, their minds are now on how to perfect 1inux, how can they think about this?" Lin Zheng whispered.
"It seems to be," Tanna nodded, thoughtful, "Are we going to start a 1inux group when we go back?" I see that you take this operating system very seriously. β
"Well, whether you can compete with Microsoft in the future may depend on 1inux."

The negotiation with Compaq and Dell is a long-term process, although the cooperation with Compaq seems to have been sentenced to death, but the business matters, even at the moment before signing the contract, are still fixed, this is definitely not a reason to give up, but the company has a lot of things, and the accumulated many affairs have not allowed Lin Zheng and Tan Na to continue to stay in the United States, as long as the contact here is done, Lin Zheng and Tan Na will go back immediately...... After the establishment of the liaison office, more exchanges with the U.S. side will be carried out through the liaison office. (To be continued......)
