rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 519 Changes in OICQ

On the night of New Year's Day, Chen Li took Liu Qingqing to have a meal with the Zhou family.

This meal was actually not very enjoyable.

There is no way~ After all, for the Zhou family, this is actually a breakup meal.

Not only is Zhou Xiaoli and her mother about to leave China, but another reason is that Zhou Bowen and his wife have divorced.

Needless to say, the reason for divorce is a standard practice among wealthy businessmen in China after they go bankrupt.

Of course~ for their relationship as husband and wife for so many years, as long as the relationship is still there, it doesn't matter whether they have the certificate or not.

But the fact that Zhou Xiaoli and her mother are about to leave for Germany still makes Zhou Bowen somewhat sad.

From then on, the family members reunited again after being separated by thousands of miles. I don’t know when it happened.

But Zhou Bowen has no better way to deal with this. In fact, this situation is actually the best way to deal with it.

Sometimes Zhou Bowen actually thought about it, just go to Germany with his wife and daughter. At worst, he would have to carry a case record with him. As long as he doesn't return to China, basically no one will find him to go to Germany these days.

However, Zhou Bowen did not do this after all, because once he did, it would be difficult for his family to return to China.

The current situation is very good. Although Zhou Bowen owes a lot of debt, at least he doesn't owe migrant workers any money.

As for the money owed to the bank, well, let’s just owe it first!

Anyway, how many people doing business these days can avoid owing money to the bank?

When he can get back the money owed to him by others, he will naturally be able to fill the hole.

Of course, Zhou Bowen knew very well that it would be difficult to get back the IOUs and project payments in his hands.

After all, when a tree falls, the hozens scatter, and when a wall falls, everyone pushes it away!

If only a few of those people were really willing to pay back the money, he, Zhou Bowen, would not have fallen to where he is today.

But what should I say? Although he knew in his heart that he would probably not get the money back, Zhou Bowen could only trust the other party to ask for the money.

It's not that he's deceiving himself, it's that this is the only path he has now.

At least I need some money to come back and see if I can make a comeback. If I can make a comeback, I can live a better life in the future.

If not, then let’s talk about it!

Therefore, with this mentality, Zhou Bowen's meal was very tasteless.

And his emotions also obviously affected other people, not only Zhou Xiaoli and her mother, but also Su Mei and Liu Qingqing.

Well. Except Chen Li!

Yes~ The only person at the dinner table who was not affected much was Chen Li.

It's not that Chen Li is cold-blooded, but that Zhou Bowen himself is not a person worthy of sympathy, right?

The fact that a real estate development boss is now bankrupt due to some reasons would have been put on the Internet in the past life. It is estimated that 99% of netizens would cheer enthusiastically.

And the biggest reason why he is sitting at the same dining table with Zhou Bowen now, apart from the fact that he and Zhou Bowen are acquaintances, is actually that he and Zhou Xiaoli are friends.

If we exclude this point, Zhou Bowen actually does not have a good image with Chen Li.

Yes~ Chen Li and Zhou Bowen knew each other, and for a while they even got along as if they were friends forever.

But this does not mean that Chen Li does not know right from wrong!

Chen Li knew that someone framed Zhou Bowen for what happened this time, but this did not mean that Zhou Bowen was a good person.

Even though Zhou Bowen did not abscond with the money and even paid off the wages of migrant workers on several of his projects, this does not mean that Zhou Bowen is a good person.

To put it bluntly, the reason why Zhou Bowen did not do this is not without reason.

Absconding with the money or defaulting on payments owed to migrant workers and other partners is strictly illegal.

But owing money to the bank is different!

First of all, the most important thing is that the bank will not let Zhou Bowen go to jail.

The reason is simple. If Zhou Bowen goes to jail, who will repay the money he owes?

Therefore, the bank will not only not let him go to jail, but will even support him in making a comeback if possible.

This may seem absurd, but the reality is so absurd.

After all, if the hole Zhou Bowen owes cannot be filled, he will not be the only one unlucky.

It was precisely based on this that Zhou Bowen had the courage to stay in the country.

But just because he stayed does not mean that he is a good person. Even if Chen Li and Zhou Xiaoli were friends, he would not treat Zhou Bowen as a conscientious entrepreneur.

To Chen Li, Zhou Bowen is just the father of his friend Zhou Xiaoli, nothing more.

This is actually one of the reasons why Chen Li was reluctant to help in the first place.

Although Zhou Bowen's hole was very big, could Chen Li really not be able to get out any money?

It's not that he can't take it out, it's that he doesn't want to take it out at all.

To describe it in a slightly convoluted way, Zhou Bowen knew that Chen Li knew that his hole would be difficult to fill!

So~ later he didn't even open his mouth to Chen Li.

But that's okay, at least Chen Li can come over to have this meal as Zhou Xiaoli's friend.

This meal~ was actually deliberately slowed down. After all, parting always brings reluctance to people.

But no matter how reluctant you are to leave, the destined parting will eventually come.

At Yanjing International Airport, Chen Li held Liu Qingqing's hand and bid farewell to Zhou Xiaoli and her mother.

This farewell is probably not going to last more than two or three years. We probably won’t see each other again.

However, this is not certain. After all, with Chen Li's current development speed, it may not take long for the business to expand to Europe.

Before parting, Chen Li and Zhou Xiaoli hugged each other briefly and agreed to take care of Zhou Bowen's request to the best of their ability.

Chen Li did not refuse. As a friend, he took care of his aging father. This was the right thing to do.

But~that’s all!

Zhou Xiaoli naturally understood the difference, so she said: Do your best!

After hugging Chen Li, Zhou Xiaoli hugged Liu Qingqing again. The hug between the two of them lasted longer than the hug with Chen Li.

Zhou Xiaoli even whispered a few words to Liu Qingqing, but in fact Chen Li, who was standing next to Liu Qingqing, heard everything clearly.

And the most outrageous thing was when Zhou Xiaoli whispered this, she actually looked at Chen Li and said it.

"Qingqing~ I really envy you!"

Chen Li looked helpless, while Liu Qingqing was confused.

Of course Liu Qingqing didn't know that Zhou Xiaoli had actually visited Chen Li once before today.

Don't get me wrong~ There is no inappropriate relationship between the two of them.

Zhou Xiaoli came here to get the money that Chen Li had prepared for her, but Zhou Xiaoli did say something to Chen Li after getting the money.

It's not a confession. Strictly speaking, she just confessed her inner feelings to Chen Li and that's all.

Zhou Xiaoli told the truth frankly that she seemed to have fallen in love with Chen Li. After all, Chen Li was indeed regarded as outstanding in the eyes of his peers, which was a bit too much.

But at the same time, Zhou Xiaoli also expressed her attitude. Her attraction to Chen Li was just a simple appreciation of Chen Li's excellence, and she did not want to have any further development with Chen Li.

Chen Li understands this!

To be honest~ After his rebirth, Chen Li did find that he was far more popular than in his previous life.

This point became particularly prominent after he entered college.

When he was in middle school, Chen Li had never received love letters from girls on his desk, but the way those girls expressed themselves was somewhat reserved.

But after arriving at university, due to factors such as age and environment, Chen Li's personal charm was almost fully reflected.

Of course~ I have to admit that the so-called money-making ability has added a lot of points to Chen Li, but Chen Li’s own excellence due to his rebirth and the existence of the system is also an important factor in attracting the opposite sex.

.

In addition, Chen Li is only "twenty years old" now, so of course he feels that he is a bit handsome now.

Therefore, now Chen Li has actually gradually become accustomed to the "appreciation" of the opposite sex for him.

The same goes for female college students in school, and so does Zhou Xiaoli!

Chen Li has always felt that he might make some mistakes in this regard in the future, but at least he has not made any mistakes so far.

Including Zhou Xiaoli!

Chen Li is not a fool. Even because of his experience in nightclubs, he is far more sensitive to some things than his so-called peers.

In fact, when he was in Germany last year, Chen Li discovered that something was wrong with the way Zhou Xiaoli looked at him.

It's just that at the time, Chen Li thought that he might be being sentimental. After all, Zhou Xiaoli's attitude at that time was not obvious at all.

But later, after Chen Li returned to China, Zhou Xiaoli kept sending emails to him regardless of anything. If he didn't understand something at this time, then all his experiences in his previous life would be in vain.

Fortunately, Zhou Xiaoli is now going to Germany to study, and even after graduation, she may not come back.

Otherwise, Chen Li might still feel a little embarrassed.

At the very least, he still can't get along normally with a girl who has confessed his feelings to him.

After all, Chen Li now is not a so-called scumbag.

Well, no matter how reluctant we are to say goodbye, it will eventually come.

In the early morning of that day, Zhou Xiaoli and her mother took a flight to Germany, while Chen Li led Liu Qingqing, who was already dozing off, back to his home in Yanjing.

Of course, the house is not deserted at the moment. Liu Qingqing’s classmates are still watching TV at Chen Li’s house!

"Hey~ I brought you a barbecue."

Chen Li handed Li Xiaoying the barbecue he bought from Wang Xiaomei's barbecue stall before going home, and then received praises from a group of female college students.

Today they went to Ideal Fried Chicken to work part-time for a day. After they came back, they played with the VCD bought by Chen Li and watched "Huanzhugege" all night. This kind of money can be made, movies and TV series can be watched, and there are barbecue snacks.

The days are really beautiful.

"I'm going to take a shower first~!"

Chen Li's attention was not focused on Liu Qingqing's roommates, but when Liu Qingqing said she was going to take a shower, Chen Li's heart suddenly "thumped".

Chen Li instantly understood that his girlfriend was not so easy to fool.

Zhou Xiaoli’s unclear words at the airport before~ A silly and sweet girl like Li Xiaoying might not understand the meaning, but with Liu Qingqing’s intelligence, although she may not have heard what it meant, she could definitely guess it.

To something.

This made Chen Li a little helpless, because in this matter, he was really unjust!

After all, he and Zhou Xiaoli really had nothing to do with each other. If this incident affected his relationship with Liu Qingqing, it would be really depressing.

However, Chen Li can't say anything for the time being, after all, there are still a bunch of Liu Qingqing's roommates here.

Of course, Chen Li did not stay in the living room to watch Huan Zhugege with the group. After watching Liu Qingqing go to the bathroom, Chen Li went directly back to his bedroom.

He opened his laptop and first checked his email. After replying to two work emails, Chen Li logged in to his OICQ account.

It is worth mentioning that in the previous life, OICQ during this time period had been renamed QQ.

But now OICQ is still called OICQ, but this does not mean that the company on the other side of the ocean has not raised objections to this.

It is said that the so-called America Online has issued a warning to OICQ, but the receiver of OICQ simply ignored it.

This is actually quite normal. Even though the United States now claims to be the Pacific Police, the two countries are actually separated by more than 10,000 kilometers.

To be honest~ The so-called America Online really wants to fight some kind of cross-border lawsuit with OICQ. Let’s not say who will win. This process alone will probably be a hassle.

Chen Li estimates that the party taking over OICQ intends to drag the other party with it first, and then wait to see what the development of OICQ will be like?

If it develops well, then we will find a way to solve the problem with OICQ later.

If it doesn't develop well, then it may not matter whether the lawsuit is filed or not.

But there is one thing to say~ After being acquired, OICQ seems to be easier to use than before.

Of course, this is understandable. After all, Tengxun previously had no funds to support the continued development of OICQ, and it was difficult for them to even guarantee maintenance.

But after being acquired, especially after being acquired at a high price, the other party definitely wants to continue the development of OICQ to a higher level.

In addition, Lao Zhang of the original Tenxun Five Tigers is still with OICQ, so for the time being, OICQ today is even better than OICQ in the previous life.

However, this development looks awesome, but it is only temporary.

Everything will not be known until OICQ starts its official commercial operation.

Yes~OICQ is about to start commercial operation.

According to official news released by OICQ's current company, OICQ will begin commercial operations in March of next year.

By March 1st, OICQ will charge its users a monthly software usage fee of ten yuan.

And by that time, there will be no paying users. It is very likely that they will not be able to continue using OICQ.

To be honest~ When Chen Li saw the news, his jaw almost dropped.

But I have to say that this company actually has something. At the very least, they have found the profit point of OICQ.

only.

The other party is still too anxious!
