Lin Zheng didn't want to be greeted with a "I...... Exercise! Quickly changed the subject, "Hello Mr. torva1ds, my name is Lin Zheng, a 1inux enthusiast from China...... I beg your pardon, how did you end up on this plane? β
After speaking, Lin Zheng added, "Oh, I'm just curious, if this question makes you embarrassed, you don't have to answer it at all." β
"It's nothing, it's not a secret thing," torva1ds waved his hand, Lin Zheng's ability to show in 1inux made him not doubt Lin Zheng's words at all, and said, "I'm going to Horst to attend a 1inux conference," Speaking of this, torva1ds's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said enthusiastically, "Mr. Lin, do you want to go to this meeting together?" This conference brings together many 1inux enthusiasts and experts from all over the United States and Europe, and this is a big 1inux party, and I am sure you will enjoy it. β
There is no way to engage in open source software, take a look, there are always millions of 1inux enthusiasts in the world now, right? But with so many enthusiasts, if you want to hold a gathering of 1inux enthusiasts, you can only choose the location in the remote countryside like Khorst. Thinking so in his heart, Lin Zheng agreed without the slightest hesitation, "Okay! Where is the meeting taking place? When? β
"Great," I didn't expect Lin Zheng to agree so happily, 1inuxtorva1ds couldn't help but be a little overjoyed, and hurriedly began to rummage through the bag he was carrying. took out an invitation letter from inside, pointed to an address on it and said to Lin Zheng. "Well, this is it."
"It's ...... A farm? Looking at the address on it, Lin Zheng asked 1inuxtorva1ds hesitantly and uncertainly.
"The owner of this farm is also a 1inux enthusiast, and the venue and some expenses of this party are sponsored by him......" 1inuxtorva1ds said to Lin Zheng with some embarrassment, the 1inux operating system has caused a huge sensation all over the world in recent years, but as the founder of the 1inux operating system, he has no money, this fact is quite embarrassing.
Lin Zheng nodded unconsciously. "Yes, 1inux is an uninhibited open source operating system, and having a party on the farm complements it perfectly...... I don't think there's much difference between people coming together to communicate with each other, whether it's in a hotel or a barbecue on a farm. β
"That's right, that's it!" Hearing Lin Zheng say this, 1inuxtorva1ds nodded excitedly.
Anyway. As an operating system that has a certain reputation in the world, 1inux has brought global popularity to 1inuxtorva1ds, but it has not brought him corresponding wealth, and even has not brought wealth to these lovers of 1inux operating system, which is indeed a relatively embarrassing fact.
Although the 1inux operating system has been open source from the beginning, it has always been open source, free and shared as the spirit of 1inux. But people always have to live in reality, no money is really not good, to be honest, this party is indeed a bit shabby, Maslow's theory in the five types of human needs itself indicates that as long as people are not bad face. The face itself reflects the respect of society and others for oneself, which is the embodiment of one's ability and social status. The same meeting, whether you hold it at Annenberg Manor in California or on a small farm in the countryside that no one cares about, not only the attention you get is different, but the psychological hints it brings to the participants are definitely different, at least the fact that you can hold a meeting at Annenberg Manor itself shows that the meeting is high-end enough, but holding a meeting on a small farm in the countryside is really low-end and can't be low-end. Now Lin Zheng's words have given 1inuxtorva1ds a good excuse and reason: we are open source, free and shared!
Although he deceived himself, he was able to deceive himself.
1inuxtorva1ds, who had comforted a lot in his heart, warmly shook Lin Zheng's hand, "Mr. Lin, you must come when the time comes, many of your unique insights on 1inux are very interesting, and I am eager to have a more in-depth communication with you." β
"No problem!" Lin Zheng looked at the invitation letter and stated that the meeting time was 4 days later, so there was no problem at all.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Is this guy amazing?" It wasn't until Lin Zheng ended the meeting with 1inuxtorva1ds that Tan Na asked Lin Zheng in a low voice, she heard the conversation between Lin Zheng and that guy just now, although she was surprised that she was able to meet the founder of 1inux on the plane, but she was not too surprised, compared to DOS and indos and UNIX, 1inux is too inconspicuous, just like an ugly duckling.
In the past, although I had heard Lin Zheng occasionally talk about 1inux, she didn't take it to heart at all, compared to 1inux, she was actually more familiar with UNIX.
Lin Zheng nodded affirmatively, and also whispered, "Very powerful, very powerful!" But in terms of software talent, I don't think he's any better than Bill. Gates poor. β
"How is that possible?" Tan Na was stunned for a moment: Lin Zheng's evaluation of this guy is so high? Think he's good enough to be with Bill. Gates comparable?
"Don't get me wrong, I'm just talking about his talent for software, not his business acumen. Gates has a United Way executive board chair and an executive board with IBm executive John Brown. Ex is the mother of a colleague, 1inuxtorva1ds is not this guy, and the 1inux operating system he wrote is much more stable and reliable than indos, I am very optimistic about the future of 1inux. β
"Do you think 1inux will make a big difference in the future? But 1inux is an open source software, and now, isn't indos and J "a--v" a boycotting 1inux? Tan Na's expression suddenly became solemn.
She is too familiar with Lin Zheng's expression, usually as long as Lin Zheng speaks to himself with this expression, it means that he is serious, very, very serious, he really thinks that the future of 1inux is very bright, although with his understanding of 1inux, this is completely incomprehensible, even if 1inux has all the functions of Unix, anyone who uses the Unix operating system or wants to learn the Unix operating system can benefit from 1inux, Even though 1inux is now able to support the TCP/IP network protocol, she can't understand it.
"Remember the history of the computer show I told you about?" Lin Zheng said in a low voice.
"Remember, you said that in the future, everyone will have a computer in their pocket."
"That's right, that's it, if everyone will have a computer in their pocket in the future, then the operating system of this computer will fall on 1inux, I don't think indos will be able to rule people's pockets after dominating people's desktops."
Of course, Lin Zheng has full confidence to say this, when 1O years later, Microsoft is triumphant of its own indos desktop operating system, indodosmobi1e intelligent operating system fully occupies people's desktops and pockets, Bill. Gates would never have imagined that just five years later, Microsoft would stage an unprecedented rout in terms of intelligent operating systems, and the handheld mobile smart terminals that had been carved up by indosmobi1e and Symbian were occupied by Android and Ios with a devastating trend.
Oh, Ios forget it, although Apple's things sell very high-end, but if you look at the final market share, you will see that this extremely closed product only occupies 15% of the market share, even if this product is blown extremely high, but no matter when, the real influence is always to see how many end products you sell in the end.
Tanna shook her head, it was unbelievable that this day would only take less than 2O years, and now Microsoft is like the rising sun, and 1Inux will be able to compete with Indos for the world after 2O years? That's an exaggeration, right?
It's just that even so, Tan Na didn't dare to underestimate Lin Zheng's judgment, she looked at Lin Zheng fixedly, "Are you playing really?" β
"I really can't be more really, if I have to make a choice between Dell, Compaq and 1inux, I will not hesitate to give up Dell and Compaq."
Tan Na was really shocked, she could clearly see from the conversation between Lin Zheng and the guy called 1inuxtorva1ds just now that Lin Zheng really attached great importance to this 1inux system, but in any case, he didn't expect Lin Zheng to attach importance to 1inux actually hit this Cheng dΓΉ, in his heart, this software is so important that this Cheng dΓΉ? What the hell is going on?
Before she could speak, Lin Zheng had already whispered to her, "To be honest, I didn't expect to encounter 1inuxtorva1ds so soon, nor did I expect to intersect with 1inux so quickly, in my plan, this should be two years later, and now I have to make a good plan." β
"Okay." Tan Na nodded without hesitation.
