Rebirth: I Have Nothing But Money!

In the evening.

There were gradually more people inside Starbucks.

In 2010, American coffee shops like Starbucks were extremely attractive to middle and senior managers of major companies.

After all, these people have a high income, and the Starbucks environment is first-class. After get off work, it is a habit to drink a cup of coffee here, listen to foreign soothing jazz music, refresh yourself, and think about problems.

A middle-aged man wearing a striped T-shirt, washed jeans, slippers, and carrying an Apple laptop opened the door and walked in with a haggard look on his face.

His name is Zhang Dalong. He was a powerful figure in the programmer circle many years ago. He single-handedly built Foxmail and achieved financial freedom many years ago.

It is a pity that programmers of the same generation have become big leaders of various companies, or have founded their own companies, and some are even legal persons of listed companies.

And he, Zhang Dalong, has been in the Internet circle for so long. After many twists and turns, he is still just a senior worker, product manager, and working emperor. Although his salary is not low, he is still subordinate to others.

After a busy day, Zhang Dalong is really a little tired. Now he is the general manager of Pengcheng R&D Department, responsible for the maintenance, operation and research and development of the "Penguin Mailbox" project product. After these years, he has continuously improved and upgraded the Penguin Mailbox. It has become one of the most favorite mailboxes among users.

At this time, the Internet PC era has not yet shown an obvious decline, but Penguin Mailbox, including all mailbox products, seems to be showing a downward trend in its life. In Zhang Dalong's view, Penguin Mailbox... has... I can't hold on much longer.

As the user's usage time gradually declined, Zhang Dalong's mood became more and more anxious, because in his opinion, Penguin Mailbox had achieved the most perfect state as possible...

"Bring me a latte, no sugar."

Zhang Dalong ordered a cup of coffee at the bar, then casually found a seat by the window and sat down. Su Can was not far away. He recognized Zhang Dalong. As for the way to strike up a conversation, he had practiced it countless times in his mind.

"Brother, you look very haggard?" Su Can glanced at Zhang Dalong with a smile, as if he had known him for a long time. Then he glanced at Zhang Dalong's computer desktop. There was not a single document. , like a blank sheet of paper.

Zhang Dalong had never heard the word "brother" before. He subconsciously separated the words to analyze, and couldn't help but find it funny: "Little turkey, do I look old?"

"You are not old. You look very young, probably around 30 years old at most, but you are very tired, and you seem to have a little bit of anxiety..."

Su Can replied with a faint smile. At this time, the waiter brought the "latte" Zhang Dalong ordered. After Su Can finished her reply, she also said to the waiter: "Sister, give me a latte too."

The young and beautiful waitress looked slightly embarrassed in her eyes, and then she smiled impolitely and said, "Okay."

But she felt doubly confused in her heart, because Su Can had been sitting here all afternoon and had only ordered drinks now. She originally thought that this young man was a prostitute for free, but then she thought it was wrong. This young man was wearing high-end brand names. The watch on your wrist might be worth hundreds of thousands, how could you get away with it for nothing?

"Anxious? It's true that I'm a little anxious." Zhang Dalong asked and answered himself, ignoring Su Can. Then he leaned on the chair, closed his eyes and rested, and ignored Su Can who was sitting next to him.

Businessmen with a somewhat "literary temperament" like Zhang Dalong are actually very rare. At first glance, he doesn't look like a rich man. He is all dressed in ordinary clothes. He doesn't even wear a watch. The only valuable thing is The one is probably the Apple notebook in front of me.

"Brother... looking at you, you are most likely a programmer, right? As the saying goes, it is better to open up than to block. Maybe if we change places, we won't be so anxious."

Su Can said with a smile, his words were very baffling.

But it is very suitable for Zhang Dalong at this stage, because he is the product manager and project leader of Penguin Mailbox, and he has a lot of courage on his shoulders.

Now, Penguin Mailbox has reached a watershed, and the board of directors has high hopes for him. However, as a programmer, Zhang Dalong knows very well that Penguin Mailbox has no room to upgrade.

Going one step further, it is a question of product form. At this stage, Ascendas Group already owns instant messaging software like "Penguin Chat", and Penguin Chat's market share is extremely terrifying. If we make a similar one Products are nothing more than superfluous.

First of all, Zhang Dalong had no way to convince himself that email and instant messaging seemed to be "communication" but in fact, they were two completely different product forms.

"Haha, little turkey, it's not as simple as you think." Zhang Dalong smiled slightly at himself: "There are many reasons for anxiety, and maybe it has nothing to do with sparseness and blockage."

This time Zhang Dalong finally looked at Su Can. He was young, had an aloof temperament, wore famous brands, and was very handsome. Zhang Dalong felt as if he was talking to his peers.

Su Can did not mince words and continued to talk. He took out a silver business card from his pocket and said with a smile: "Hello, this is my personal name card."

"kindness?"

Zhang Dalong was stunned for a moment, and then became curious about Su Can's identity, because in his opinion, Su Can could not be over 20 years old even if he died. Shouldn't such a little turkey be in school?

The "famous brand" felt great to the touch and was obviously made of extremely high-end materials. What came into view was an extremely simple piece of information: "Su Can, chairman of the Banana Group, phone number: 183..."

"Chairman?"

"Banana Group..."

"Hahaha... little turkey, interesting."

"You are so young that you can't tell, but you are actually the chairman of the board."

After Zhang Dalong read the business card and looked at Su Can's face, he couldn't help but jokingly asked: "Little Turkey, what does this banana group do? How much is its registered capital?"

"Internet." Su Can replied in a neither arrogant nor humble manner.

Zhang Dalong continued to ask: "How much is the registered capital of your company? How many employees do you currently have? What products does it have... Which area of ​​the Internet is it mainly engaged in?"

Facing a series of questions raised by Zhang Dalong, Su Can answered calmly: "1 billion registered capital. I have no employees and no products for the time being. As long as it involves the Internet, I will do it."
