Vol 2 Chapter 1114: Will it be Zhao Zilong?

Chapter one hundred and fourteen

Will it be Zhao Zilong?

Faced with Wu Zhaopu's doubts, Linus couldn't answer. He is confident that he can do it well, but it doesn't mean he can do it. Especially this almost involves the lifeblood of the entire "Second World", which puts Linus under great pressure.

How to deal with "Microsoft" for the entire "Second World"? —— Linus has no way, and can't think of a way.

"I..." Linus was speechless.

"Boss, since even Minister Linus is not sure, I propose not to add so many people for the time being. I think 200 people may be enough. In the future, depending on the situation, we can add more people!" Wu Zhaopu suggested.

Linus was shocked when he heard this. If there are only 200 people, it is too few and far from the bottom line of talents he needs to develop an operating system comparable to "Microsoft". We must know that "Microsoft" has developed an "xp" with 5,000 people, and only 200 people for itself, how can this work!

"Dong Lin, if you really want to pierce the window, 1,000 people are the minimum!" Linus screamed.

In fact, 1,000 people want to develop an operating system comparable to "Microsoft", that is really reluctant, very reluctant. However, all "Microsoft" operating systems have many unnecessary functions, and many functions that users may not be able to use for a lifetime. Therefore, Linus wants to remove those functions that are not available for ordinary use. That is not only It will reduce a lot of development time and save costs at the same time, so Linus only put forward the request of 1,000 people. But now there are 200 people, which is not enough!

"Boss, it is really unwise to anger'Microsoft' brazenly!" Wu Zhaopu also argued.

Seeing that both of them were in a hurry, Lin Feng stretched out his hand to signal them to be quiet, stay calm, and let himself think about it.

Throughout the conference room, I heard the sound of Lin Feng's finger tapping on the table. Everyone held their breath and looked at Lin Feng quietly. In the "Second World", Lin Feng's prestige is unparalleled. As the founder of the "Second World" and the largest shareholder, everyone cannot resist Lin Feng's opinions.

Boss, it's not that I don't support you this time, but it's really a matter of life and death! ——Wu Zhaopu knows that Lin Feng is particularly optimistic about Linus, but this time it really matters the survival of the "Second World". "Microsoft" is too powerful, and it's hard to resist.

Lin Dong, I hope you don't let me down. As long as you believe me, I will return your trust desperately! —— Linus shouted in his heart.

"Boss, ministers, please have a cup of tea!" Lin Chiling was extremely observant at this time, and offered a cup of tea or coffee to everyone to ease the tension on the scene.

After a cup of tea, Lin Feng tapped his fingers on the tabletop to stop.

Everyone looked towards Lin Feng, knowing that Lin Feng had made a decision.

"Everyone, no matter what the future is, but I know one thing well, our destiny can only be in our own hands!" Lin Feng said.

Everyone frowned, and Linus was happy when he heard the words.

"Therefore, I will never allow'Microsoft' to control our destiny!" Lin Feng said, "So, the'System R&D Department' must be established, and the operating system we said must also be developed!"

Everyone looked at Lin Feng and said nothing. Since Lin Feng chose to pierce the window, everyone believed that Lin Feng would not fail to understand the horror of "Microsoft". In that case, they wanted to see how Lin Feng could fight against the power of "Microsoft" and the coming soon. Counterattack.

"Of course, the counterattack of'Microsoft' is also extremely terrifying, and we cannot easily kick the tiger's **** as'Microsoft'! So we must find a way!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Everyone chuckles upon hearing the words.

"I propose that we do not announce Linus joining our company for the time being, and sponsored by our company, in the name of Linus, we will hold a'Linux Summit' and invite all Linux designers around the world to come to Shanghai to participate in the summit. During the summit, we can take the opportunity to absorb these programmers for our use. We can temporarily not put them under the company's account, but let them form an organization." Lin Feng smiled.

Wu Zhaopu heard the words, with a slight aftertaste, and his eyes rolled. This is a typical secret crossing of Chen Cang, but this method is wonderful. In this way, I am afraid that "Microsoft" will be kept in the dark for a long time, and they will have plenty of time to develop, so as not to incur premature retaliation from "Microsoft".

Linus also deeply agrees with this. In this way, he can use this "linux summit" to attract "linux" talents from all over the world. After all, with his reputation as the father of "linux", plus the financial support of Lin Feng, and the support of "linux" people from all over the world Linus believes that it will succeed in the common resistance of "Microsoft" hegemony!

auzw.com "It seems that everyone agrees to my approach!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

Everyone looked at each other and applauded to show their support.

"Boss, I convinced you. I'm afraid that only you can come up with such a plan. I'm really convinced!" Wu Zhaopu admired.

Everyone also sighed. Only Lin Feng can play such tricks of "darkness in the dark" and "stealing the dragon and turning the phoenix". Even "Microsoft" dares to design and can design it.

Linus nodded his head in particular, so that he could not only absorb talents without any interference, but also attract enough talents. For a long time, there has been a lack of similar exchanges in the "linux" industry. This is mainly due to financial limitations. After all, "linux" is completely free. After all, if you want to challenge "Microsoft", "linux" can only slightly compete with it if it is free. a bit. Also because it is completely free, all "linux" developers are voluntary, hobby, and have their own jobs. Because of this, there are very few similar "linux summit" activities, and most people communicate with each other through the Internet, and face-to-face communication is rare.

Linus believes that there will be many talents from the "Linux" world coming this time with the "Second World" funding, and it will be a grand event in the "Linux" world. It's exciting to think of the global "linux" elites gathering together. Linus has long wanted to meet many designers who study "linux" for a long time. If you can work with these elites in the future to develop "linux" together, this is definitely the most exciting job in the world.

"Well, about the ‘Linux Summit’, Minister Chen Xiaowei planned it, and Mr. Linus served as the host to receive it!" Lin Feng thought for a while and ordered. Originally, Lin Feng wanted Linus to be fully responsible, but when he thinks of the crazy programmers like Linus, they are usually not good at humanity and sophistication, or even dull. The holding of the summit is especially related to the recruitment of talents in the “System R&D Department”. Lin Feng hopes that this summit will make many designers feel at home, so that when an invitation is made, many designers will not have Any conflict.

"Yes, Lin Dong!" Chen Xiaowei nodded. This is one area she is good at, and now she is holding a global "linux summit", and it is secretly calculating "Microsoft", which is also a very interesting thing for Chen Xiao in the future.

"As for the matter of persuading those software vendors, it's left to me. But our company can't all count on those software companies. In terms of games and entertainment, our company must also design our company's own software. For example, audio-visual players. , Download tools, etc. These softwares are not big, and the design is not difficult!" Lin Feng said.

"Boss, but in this way, we need specialized designers to design and develop? Should the relevant department be established or which department should be responsible for?" Wu Zhaopu thought for a while and asked.

Lin Feng frowned and thought for a while.

"In this way, Minister Linus, it will be handed over to your department. Anyway, if you design the operating system, you will integrate it all at once. Of course, in order to prevent some companies from suing us for a monopoly in the future, do not force the design. When installing the system, the user is prompted to install or not.” Lin Feng smiled, “I believe most users will still choose to install. After all, for the vast majority of users, in their consciousness, the original package It's always the best."

Everyone smiled. Indeed, for most consumers, even professional programmers like them, generally choose the original matching software. After all, in most cases, the original matching software is the best in compatibility.

After instructing these things, Lin Feng looked to Lu Zhiyi, the head of the "amd" hardware development department, and He Guoyuan, the head of the "ati".

"Minister Lu Zhiyi, Minister He, regarding the plan I mentioned last time to buy second-hand computer accessories and replace them with new computers, how are you planning?" Lin Feng asked.

"Dong Lin, do you really want to do this?" Lu Zhiyi looked surprised.

When Lin Feng looked at Lu Zhiyi's expression, he knew that Lu Zhiyi had definitely not done market research and evaluation of his plan, and Lin Feng was anxious.

"Minister Lu Zhiyi, this plan is not only to promote the sales of computer hardware, but also to promote the'linux system' we are about to develop. Now we are facing two powerful enemies-'Intel' and'Microsoft'. Only by following the two-pronged approach can we break through the shackles they impose on us and become the leader of the industry." Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

In the Linfeng plan, no matter how good and cheap the "linux" system designed by Linus in the future is, if you want to promote it to the whole market, it is definitely the most incompetent to rely on low price (or even free) to compete. Competitive strategy, not only may not be able to shake the position of "Microsoft", it may put the company into trouble.

In Lin Feng's view, a smart competitive strategy is to provide a platform for the "linux" system to play. And this platform is the "old-for-new" plan advocated by Lin Feng. Let all users use second-hand computers or accessories to make up the price difference and exchange for a brand new computer with a "linux" system. As long as the user can enjoy a sufficiently low price and convenience, Lin Feng believes that many consumers are still very willing to exchange for this A computer.

At that time, when the number of computers purchased by users reaches a certain amount, it will produce results from quantitative changes to qualitative changes. At that time, it will be the time for the "Second World" to officially challenge "Microsoft". Therefore, Lin Feng was really anxious when he heard that Lu Zhiyi did not implement his plan at all.

"Dong Lin, sorry, I didn't look at that long-term view at the time. I just thought it would consume a lot of manpower and material resources for our company, so I am not investigating it further. But rest assured, I will show it to you as soon as possible. A market evaluation report." Lu Zhiyi said.

After hearing Lin Feng's explanation, Lu Zhiyi also began to understand the importance of the "used computer trade-in" program to the company. Moreover, if the company's operating system can really compare with "Microsoft" in the future, and can even create a sky in the field of operating systems, it will be of great benefit to the company. At that time, my company's operating system could add support for "amd" and "ati" hardware, while imposing some restrictions on "Intel" and "nvidia", just like what "Microsoft" does now.

Thinking of this possibility in the future, Lu Zhiyi looked excited. If it is true, then the future will be the world of "amd" and "ati", no, the future will be the world of the "second world".

A company with operating systems, hardware development, games and entertainment applications will definitely be the scariest existence in the IT industry! This can be said to be occupied by the "second world" from the source to the end. Lu Zhiyi can't imagine how terrifying a company like that would be, but he can be sure that the "second world" has really reached that point. The stock price may even exceed 1,000 yuan (USD).

The company’s total equity is 700 million shares. If it exceeds 1,000 yuan, it will be 700 billion U.S. dollars. This will definitely be the company with the highest stock market value in the world. You know, the company with the highest global market value ranking is ExxonMobil Petroleum Corporation, with a stock market value of US$487.6 billion. If the company really gets there, its market value will nearly double that of ExxonMobil. Just think about it. People are crazy. And you have to know that ExxonMobil has no room to rise again, and the future potential of the "Second World" is huge.

Of course, opportunities always coexist with risks. To achieve this step, we must first cross the "Intel" and "Microsoft" barriers like the "Hulao Pass". And the generals guarding this narrow pass are-"Lv Bu" ("Microsoft") and "Huang Zhong" ("Intel"), then Lin Feng or "Second World" will become the one who used to be in Cao Ying with seven entries and seven exits.
