Jim. Bellsley left happily, he was very optimistic about the future of ICQCiLoudPlayer and MP3, in his opinion, ICQ and ICQCiLoudPlayer will inevitably become one of the most important pillars of RIM in terms of software, but he didn't expect that his unreliable boss would forget about it in a blink of an eye after making a promise with himself...... Lin Zheng is warmly entertaining an old friend he hasn't seen for a long time, LinuxTorvalds, the father of Linux. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Lin, congratulations on inventing a great piece of software, you changed the history of mobile phones as a communication tool, and I think the Nobel Prize selection committee should give you a medal."

linuxtorvalds, the father of linux, looked at Lin Zheng's eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred, and said to Lin Zheng half extremely and half jokingly.

Envy, jealousy, and hatred are certainly due: why did Lao Tzu work so hard to write Linux that he could only make a little hard-earned money, and this guy easily made his own business into the most well-known Internet company today?

Someone modestly waved his hand, "Torvalds, don't say that, you know, ICQ is just taking a head start...... Torvalds, we're old friends, and you've come to me this time because you have some ideas for linux to tell me, right? ”

"That's right," LinuxTorvalds sighed, looked at Lin Zheng, and was a little confused in his eyes: "To tell you the truth, Lin, see the current performance of Windows in the market, look at the development of Linux in the past two years, and then look at your ICQ in a short period of time to gather nearly 200 million users around the world, sometimes I also wonder, is the spirit of Linux that I insisted on before correct?" ”

Lin Zheng didn't expect that he had stimulated the father of Linux, who insisted on the spirit of freedom and sharing, into this, and he was a little reluctant to go, hesitated for a while, and finally decided that it would be better to be honest with LinuxTorvalds: "This ...... Torvalds, do you want to hear my true thoughts or do you want me to be perfunctory to you? ”

"Of course it's true," linuxtorvalds glared, "Lin, I always thought we were true friends," Lin. How can you answer me like that? Do you know, your words make me very sad. ”

"Okay, since you say so, then I'll say it directly," Lin Zheng nodded, looked at LinuxTorvalds and said frankly: "Torvalds, first of all, I want to say that I admire your attitude towards Linux, but to be honest, I don't agree with your views on the spirit of the Internet." ”

"Huh?" linuxtorvalds frowned, Lin Zheng's words made him a little uncomfortable, in his opinion, the core spirit of the Internet is sharing and freedom, but now Lin Zheng, a guy who is considered his best friend, actually told himself that he does not agree with his views on the spirit of the Internet? But linuxtorvalds is one of the few high-IQ geniuses in this world after all, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded: "Well, you say." ”

"In my opinion, the spirit of the Internet is a limited degree of sharing and a limited degree of freedom, Marx said that labor creates wealth, and wealth is valuable, each of us is relying on the Internet to survive, we are also creating value for the Internet, but you think that the Internet should be all free and shared spirit, which is equivalent to denying our own value......"

Without waiting for Lin Zheng to finish speaking, linuxtorvalds interrupted him very unceremoniously and said, "But that's what I did. ”

"You're right, not only you do it, but the group of Linux enthusiasts with you at the core also do it, but torvalds, you can't just ask everyone to do the same just because you and your group believe in this idea, it's unfair to them, remember the last time we talked to you, you're not alone, you have to be responsible for your parents, your lover, and your children, if someone gathers around you because of Linux, You also have to take responsibility for their lives, you can't ask them to work out of their own pockets, free and on duty, it's unfair to their families, look at how many of those people who were around you in the first place are gone? ”

"Am I really wrong......

LinuxTorvalds's eyes were a little confused, these words were said to him once in 1996, but at that time LinuxTorvalds did not go to the heart, but at that time LinuxTorvalds did not go to the heart, at that time the whole world was talking about Linux, even Microsoft's Windows regarded its Linux as a big enemy, and he was so ambitious at that time, Hell-bent on ousting Windows from the position of the boss of the desktop operating system, but after such a long time, what about the actual performance? Windows still dominates the desktop operating system, Linux can only gain a small market share in the server space, and the living environment is even worse than Unix, because Unix is charged, while Linux is free......

"Torvalds, you have to affirm the value of your labor," sighed, Lin Zheng said: "Even if you donate all the money you earn to the International Red Cross and international children's charities, you can't deny the value of your own labor, you can not make money through Linux, but you shouldn't stop the countless programmers and software engineers who are interested in entering this industry and want to live on Linux, they are the foundation of Linux." ”

“…… Is that the case? Linuxtorvalds' tone became more and more confused.

Lin Zheng smiled and didn't answer directly, but smiled and asked linuxtorvalds: "Don't you already have the answer in your heart?" ”

Yes, the Linux Torvalds do have the answer in mind.

If the Linux system wants to develop and grow, it is obviously impossible to take the road of Windows, which means that Linux is inseparable from thousands of programmers and software engineers, but because it is impossible to make money from the Linux system, the software engineers and programmers engaged in the research of the Linux system are very mobile, more than ninety percent of people come in with curiosity, and there is no idea of taking this system as their own business, and there are few cornerstones at the bottom. The development of Linux is naturally slow.

"You're right," after a long silence, linuxtorvalds finally raised his head with a wry smile and looked at Lin Zheng, "Maybe I've realized this a long time ago, but I just don't want to admit it...... Perhaps ICQ's path is the most suitable for me. ”

LinuxTorvalds said that the development path of ICQ is the most suitable for Linux, of course, it does not mean that in the future, he will make money by charging membership fees, but through a series of value-added services, which Lin Zheng understood, nodded with a smile: "I'm very happy that you can think so, what are you going to do?" ”

It's just that when he said this, Lin Zheng couldn't help but feel a little confused: LinuxTorvalds, the father of Linux, changed Linux from free to paid under his own foolishness, I don't know what history will say about him in the future? Will you scold yourself for a bloody dog?

Unit history does not record its conversation with LinuxTorvalds.

"I need to think about it...... "With a wry smile, linuxtorvalds said to Lin Zheng: "You should be able to figure it out, this conversation has a big impact on me." ”

"I can understand," Lin Zheng nodded, nonsense! This conversation is almost equivalent to a change of mind for LinuxTorvalds, and the impact is not big to hell: "But I have a request......"

"You say!" Without waiting for Lin Zheng to say play, linuxtorvalds said happily: "If you need my help, just ask." ”

"That's right, you know, Moros is working on how to move the Linux system to the mobile phone, and develop a smart phone operating system based on Linux."

Linuxtorvalds nodded: "Yes, I know about this. ”

LinuxTorvalds not only knew about it, but also provided a lot of valuable reference to Moros.

Speaking of this, linuxtorvalds was stunned: "What do you mean ......"

"That's right, we're going to move this system to our mobile phones, but Moros has encountered some difficulties in the process of research, very big difficulties," Lin Zheng deliberately emphasized the degree of this difficulty: "With Moros's knowledge of Linux, it is almost impossible for her to bypass it, so I hope you can help her, as a set of Linux operating system specially customized for you, ICQ is willing to pay you a sum of money...... We can negotiate how much it is. ”

linuxtorvalds did not immediately agree, but after a silence, they opened their mouths and asked Lin Zheng: "Lin, I remember that you once told me that the future is the world of smartphones?" ”

"That's right, not only did I say it then, but I still hold it that way." r1152
