Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Since we want to cooperate, how to cooperate and what to cooperate with is what everyone is most interested in.

At the press conference, everyone heard a meaningful sentence.

Promote the development of the Linux desktop system through cooperation.

Linux has always been inferior to Windows and Unix on desktop systems, so many people have always been unfavorable to Linux in the competition for desktop systems.

But after analyzing the matter, the Windows kernel and system are made by the same company, which has its own natural advantages. Linux is an open source kernel, and everyone can use it to play by themselves, but who can play it well? , There are actually a lot of desktop systems based on the Linux kernel, but they are all for their own use. It is impossible for Linux to spend hundreds of millions of dollars a year to develop desktop systems like Microsoft. Of course, it cannot compare to others. up.

In addition to another cliche issue, ecology, ecological monopoly is placed there, and no one can properly build a system.

Everyone's focus, concentration, and investment are different.

But this life is a bit different, because there is a company willing to invest huge capital to build a desktop system based on the Linux kernel, and because the company boss is a coward with some advantages, he is sure that the product can be compared with Linux to a certain extent. The point where Microsoft is wrestling.

At this time, the cooperation to promote the desktop system, Meng Qian, was vague, making many people speculate on one thing, whether Linux will launch a completely open source system, anyway, there are so many applications in Huaxia.

The Kunlun system can only be used on their own computers, which is a limitation for many people, but if they simply create a completely open source and easy-to-use desktop system at this time, the pressure from Microsoft will

At the same time, at the press conference, Meng Qian responded to Microsoft's proposal to sue Dafeng Group.

Meng Qian said in advance what Linus Torvalds said a few years later, "We are ready. If Microsoft wants to sue, we will actively cooperate with the investigation and will gladly accept all fair and just results. But we all know in our hearts that if we look at the Windows system, they will only infringe more patents than us.”

After the press conference, the cooperation between Dafeng Group and the Linux community was hyped on the Internet, especially the intercommunication between the Linux community and the Open Source Alliance, which is an exciting thing for open source developers around the world.

Both parties are really promoting the better development of global open source.

However, a few days later, the popularity of another piece of news suppressed this matter, and Microsoft's lawyer's letter came. Microsoft chose to be tough.

"Microsoft is determined to kill us." Meng Qian remained calm after receiving the news. The main reason is that some employees are actually under a lot of pressure at the moment, and it is impossible for Meng Qian to take the lead in the funeral.

Even though the Dafeng Group has developed really well these years, when they think of fighting Microsoft, there will always be people who subconsciously give up. However, what comforted Meng Qian was that the senior management of the entire company was in a very good state, and they were all ready to fight Microsoft.

"I have already contacted Linus immediately, they will take action." Xiao Boshi reported the situation on his side.

"After Linus makes a move, the operation center will follow up immediately. We are all ready." Ruan Yongkang then talked about his situation.

Meng Qian nodded and asked everyone to do it at their own pace.

Three days later, the Linux system sued the Windows system for infringement.

But Xiao Boshi brought new news. Besides the complaint, another trouble is that more and more problems in the Kunlun system have been dug out.

This is why Meng Qian said before that making a system is very simple, but the difficulty lies in ecology. After going through the market test, and then optimizing and polishing a little bit, it takes a year or two to polish the system well.

However, the reality is that Microsoft is already going to kill you when you are polishing it, so the few domestic systems that have appeared in domestic history have not even reached the ecological link, and have already reached the product link. It's cold.

Therefore, it is really not easy for the Kunlun system to do this. On the one hand, Meng Qian has brought a lot of ideas for later generations, and he has the ability to technicalize these ideas. Extremely high requirements, of course, the company's high returns can also motivate employees.

But even so, Microsoft can't stop digging problems.

Fortunately, the Kunlun system has many problems, but XP is not much better. Although XP is a classic system, the various vulnerabilities of XP are also very classic.

Meng Qian looked at Ding Mingyuan, "The entire system business department is now in a tense state, and all feedback problems must be dealt with immediately."

Then Meng Qian turned to James' direction again, "Microsoft digs our problems, and we dig his problems too."

James looked interested, "I like this job."

In the following period of time, Microsoft and Dafeng Group will always be on the hot searches.

On December 8, Microsoft claimed to make Dafeng Group compensate 1 billion meters of gold.

On December 10, Dafeng Group announced that it will invest 2 billion soft sister coins to further optimize the Kunlun system. At the same time, Dafeng Group will donate 1 billion soft sister coins to the Linux community.

On December 15, Microsoft again exposed a major system vulnerability, a virus that invaded hundreds of thousands of personal computers within three days.

On December 19, eight overseas software companies announced that the Kunlun system had major problems and would cancel their cooperation with Dafeng Group, remove products from the Kunlun system and demand compensation from Dafeng Group.

On December 22, the Linux community exposed the emails of the Microsoft threat software company.

On December 24, a coalition of companies in the United States sued Dafeng Group for unfair competition in the software market.

On December 27, Gale Group sued Microsoft for vicious competition.

On January 3, Dafeng Group announced that the sales volume of the ancient series of computers exceeded 1 million units in 2004. At the same time, it announced that the company will spend 2 billion to expand directly-operated stores in many countries to enhance market competitiveness.

On January 5, a report suddenly appeared in the United States that the Dafeng Group may have spying on users' privacy.

In the evening, the main management team of Gale Group sat together and chatted.

"It took more than a month to burn up the company's cash flow." Sun Xiaojing raised a very realistic question.

"I think Microsoft doesn't talk about any strategy now, they just rely on their big business to compete with us." Xiao Boshi frowned slightly.

"But the biggest problem now is today's report. If" Gu Junhui paused for a few seconds, "if Microsoft really asks Mi Guo to support him, what should we do?"

Everyone looked at each other, but no one answered.

"By the way, where did Mr. Meng go? I haven't seen him since I went out in the evening." Shortly after everyone was silent, Xiao Boshi asked.

Everyone else shook their heads, "I don't know."

At around 6 o'clock in the evening, at the door of a certain studio, Shen Jiawen looked at Meng Qian unexpectedly, "Why are you here?"

"I don't know either."

Shen Jiawen has been paying attention to the affairs of Dafeng Group every day recently. Looking at Meng Qian's obvious dark circles and thin body at this time, she calmed down, "Have you eaten yet?"

"Then I'll invite you to eat." Shen Jiawen caught a glimpse of the two bodyguards behind Meng Qian in the middle of speaking, "If you don't mind, go to my house for dinner. I just moved last week."

"OK."

When they came to Shen Jiawen's house, Meng Qian was invited to sit on the sofa for a while. Shen Jiawen took off her coat and rummaged in the refrigerator without disturbing Meng Qian, "You take a rest first, I will cook two dishes."

"sorry to bother you."

Watching Shen Jiawen walk into the kitchen, Meng Qian lowered his head and sighed softly, he didn't know why he came to find Shen Jiawen.

There is no turning back in the confrontation with Microsoft. If the company really wants to confront Microsoft indefinitely, it will be dragged to death, but this is not something that has to be done. Meng Qian is waiting for news now, which is another A hole card.

This hole card will have a very important impact on future competition.

But although Meng Qian has done all the preparations within his capacity for this hole card, there are still many uncertainties in the final result.

Whether we can wait for good news tonight, Meng Qian doesn't know.

Therefore, he who has always been calm has a rare uneasiness.
