: April 20 Bill Gates, who was speaking at Peking University, was confronted with an unexpected protest: at the end of the presentation, LPI China's chief representative, Wang (Wang Kaiyuan), held a poster with "Free software open source." , and shouted against Microsoft's monopoly slogan in English. The man was taken away by the police for investigation afterwards. The news has received enough attention in China, replacing the "US state shootings" with the Internet as the first focus. Contrary to this, foreign media has not made this little protest a big thing, basically a blind eye. Because of such public protest, it seems normal for foreigners to be no news at all. It is said that Bill Gates has become commonplace in other parts of the world outside of mainland China, and Bill Gates kept smiling when it happened, which means that old people don't take it seriously. But the Chinese seem to make a fuss, first the scene security formidable, and then the police eldest brother to bring, the latter will Wang open source back to the bureau investigation. It is estimated that the "troublemakers" will be added to the trumped-up charges, 1:30 will be afraid to come out. It's not that big a deal, it's someone who says compliments. There's a protest, and there's freedom of speech. Bill Gates came to China 10 times, 9 times without protest, this in other countries is simply inconceivable, whether the "troublemakers" is to be brave or pure show or have unspeakable secrets, but it is undeniable that he is the first to dare to break through the Chinese people's minds deep-rooted doctrine of the idea of the person, Is the first to stand up against the monopoly of foreign companies, I think the lack of such people in China, the Chinese are too hypocritical, obviously want to do so to say is not afraid to act. Of course, China's political environment is indeed bad enough, not to shout a few words of protest (and Microsoft does have an industry monopoly), there is no need to deal with as a criminal case? Ironically, after the incident, Microsoft's Chinese corporate PR director Chen Janfeng hurried out to plead for Wang Kaiyuan-"We respect everyone's right to express their opinions." This incident did not affect the "innovation event" held in Peking University smoothly. "Victims" all respect the "enemy" freedom of speech, we Chinese for Sh Ho to fight their own mouth? Successful people have to undergo a lot of right and wrong, a not to recruit and hate entrepreneurs have always been questionable, we recognize the great side of Bill Gates, but he must also have a dark side, to protest against the guilt? If a country cannot even speak freely, outsiders seem to be overbearing and a great insult to the people.
