Rebirth: It’s Like Flowing Water

"Rebirth is like flowing years (

This is the first Sanshi Internet cafe in Shangbei.

I said before that I wanted to get everyone an off-campus base, and it turned out to be a big deal, but the original intention was still not forgotten.

In fact, since years ago, after the Harbin company got on the right track, Wu Ning and Tang Yi had already looked for a store location and started preparations.

Qi Lei didn't participate in the whole process, because the brothers did it all.

Years later, Li Gang's decoration team also began to move in, and the work will be completed in about a week.

How to arrange and how many computers to arrange at that time, it is all up to the two brothers, which can be regarded as a kind of exercise.

After the opening, it was watched by a little brother of Zhao Wei, and the three brothers didn't have to worry about it.

At this time, Wu Xiaojian introduced Qi Lei and Yan Ling ostentatiously.

"There are 25 machines downstairs, 5 in the outer room upstairs by the stairs, and 10 in the larger inner room."

"The inside is not open to the outside world, it's just for us. How about?"

Qi Lei naturally had no opinion, but Yan Ling was very curious, and followed Wu Xiaojian to look up and down.

Xu Xiaoqian walked to Qi Lei casually, chatting with Yang Xiao and Cheng Lele, while standing with Qi Lei naturally.

It took a long time for a sentence that had nothing to do with the chat, "I lost weight."

Qi Lei barked his teeth, "It's okay, you grow meat fast."

Xu Xiaoqian, "Let's take a good rest for two days! Don't toss about where you are at home. Old Liu is going to toss us again when school starts."

Qi Lei, "Okay! Have you lifted the foot restraint?"

"Um."

"Then you come to my house tomorrow to help Yan Ling worry about the start of school, I will rest."

"What do you have to worry about when school starts?"

"Well, such as the environment of the second high school! Precautions for the first grade! Where is the canteen and where is the toilet! These must be mentioned in advance!"

Xu Xiaoqian: "..."

"Come or not?"

"good!"

Opposite Yang Xiao and Cheng Lele were completely speechless, gritted their teeth, "dog men and women!"

Qi Lei directly ignored them and looked at the two broken computers in the "box" inside, "This is from Sister Na's house, right? Why did they move here?"

However, Tang Yi and Wu Ning brought Yan Ling upstairs, "I came to install the network yesterday, so I pulled two machines to test the network."

Everyone stayed together for a while, the sky was getting dark, Xu Qian, Yang Xiao, and Cheng Lele were about to go home. See you at school the day after tomorrow.

After Tang Yi and Wu Ning discussed it, they thought it would be annoying to go home to cook and eat, so they decided to go to the small restaurant next to them to take a bite.

Qi Lei thought that the workers had to rush to work overnight, so he simply asked them to order a few dishes and buy them back to eat. By the way, bring something to the decoration team, and do what the host wants.

Originally, they called Qi Lei to go together, but Xu Qian's words were not a lie before, Qi Lei is indeed too tired these days.

After tossing from Harbin to the capital, he hurried back to Shangbei without much rest.

"Go ahead, I'll rest for a while!"

In a blink of an eye, Qi Lei himself was left upstairs, half lying on the only broken sofa, and found that the computer was turned on, and the interface stayed on a text online game.

An online game with a text chat room structure. There are only text but no graphics. It is estimated that Tang Xiaoyi is playing.

Well, many later young people don't know what this is.

To make an analogy:

The "Girl Killer" has learned the sixth level of the Eighteen Palms of the Dragon, with attack plus (999) defensive plus (999).

The "Girl Killer" used the Eighteen Dragons on the "Crystal Man", causing 999 damage, and the Crystal Man was seriously injured.

The "Crystal Man" entered a severely injured state, unable to move or speak within 10 minutes.

"Mother Crystal" used the Six-Medition Excalibur on the "Girl Killer", causing 999 damage.

After seeing the blooming flowers, Qi Lei couldn't take any interest in this kind of game of prehistoric civilization, so he shut it down.

In fact, after Qi Lei was reborn, he still had a bit of Internet abstinence syndrome at the beginning, and he was very eager for the Internet.

However, when there was an internet connection, I was extremely disappointed and didn't use the internet very much.

Without it, there are really too few Internet resources in this era.

Take the moment, NetEase, Sohu, Sina, and Penguin, which are known as the four major portals, are only two and a half.

Netease and Sohu have been up, but Sina.com has only been established for more than two months.

As for the penguins...

By the way, penguin! Qi Lei said heartily, did this thing come out?

Stand up and open NetEase search.

At this point in time, I haven't saved my mother, so I have to wait for more than a year. The most commonly used search engine in China is NetEase, but it is not very easy to use.

Pulling out the keyboard, simply holding it in his arms, typed OICQ in the search bar.

And then... there really is!

Qi Lei raised his eyebrows, and Tony was on line right away?

I have to say that this is the chosen son of the times.

Whether it's Tony Ma, Jack Ma, or the willow that Ren Lao He Imagined.

Regardless of their reputations, merits and demerits in later generations, there is one thing that is undeniable that these are still the leading figures on the cusp of the storm. If the rebirth doesn't open up, it is really incomparable.

While sighing, I downloaded the client.

After waiting for a long time, amidst the roar of broken machines, the installation was finally completed.

When Qi Lei clicked on the lander, the gray login dialog box was so ugly that it exploded, and there was absolutely a problem with the aesthetics in his heart.

Click to register, fill in the information, Qi Lei is still looking forward to it.

He doesn't know much about the development history of Penguin, and he doesn't even know the specific launch time, let alone how this thing completes the initial user accumulation.

I just remember that in later generations, when Lei Reviver came into contact with Penguin Software, it had already become popular in Internet cafes.

I gave myself a screen name, Xiaoshitou, and the registration is complete.

Looking at the penguin number expectantly, you should know that this thing was once the same as a mobile phone number, and it was especially noticed.

After registering, paying attention to whether there is a serial number is a lot of obsessions after the 80s and 90s. Sometimes, you have to keep registering just to get a beautiful QQ number.

As a result, Qi Lei was stunned, "265"...

This...what's this number? Three?

If Qi Lei remembers correctly, in the memory of his previous life, there was a special science popularization of Penguin in forum posts, and the shortest number was five digits.

But, why did he come out with a 3-digit number here?

Before he could figure out what was going on, the message bar in the lower right corner jumped up.

Qi Lei took a look: "[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven] has added you as a friend."

There was no friend review, and the beautiful girl Qiqi's name appeared directly in the friend list.

Qi Lei was still surprised, is this really the penguin I know later? How does it feel different? Are the little girls so unreserved?

Just thinking about it, the avatar jumped, and Didi's message reminder sounded.

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: Hi, pretty boy!

Qi Lei just didn't see it, but it was a pity that the girl was quite persistent.

[Beautiful Girl Qiqi]: Why don't you speak? This software is very easy to use!

Qi Lei continued to ignore it.

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: Where are you from? There are so few boys in this software, it seems that they are all women.

Qi Lei couldn't bear it anymore.

[Little Stone]: I want to ask you something.

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: I am a female.

[Little Stone]: Not important.

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]:...

[Little Stone]: Where did this three-digit QQ account come from?

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: qq? Isn't it OICQ? Is there anything weird? I'm still two!

Qi Lei quickly opened the profile of pretty girl Qiqi, well, OICQ number: 77.

Then, this pretty girl Qiqi turned on the chat mode,

"Are you a boy?"

Qi Lei: "Yes."

"How old are you?"

Qi Lei: "17."

"This software is really good."

Qi Lei, "It's okay, but the login interface is too ugly!"

"Is it ugly? What kind of one do you think is good-looking? How is the round one?"

Qi Lei, "The shape is not the key point. It has to be eye-catching. At least change to a popular color. Grey is just like hanging on the wall."

"..."

Within a few minutes.

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "Huh? The software has been updated! I'll check it out."

Go offline., go online again.

[Beautiful Girl Qiqi], "Wow! You are amazing, they seem to have discovered this problem too, they really changed the login interface! It seems that this software is still very close to netizens!"

Qi Lei: "..."

[Beautiful girl Qiqi]: "Hurry up and recommend it to your friends, it will be lively with more people."

Qi Lei couldn't bear it anymore, "Are you asking?"

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "..."

After a long time, "What is it? I don't understand."

Qi Lei, "They should pay you a salary, they are working hard."

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "Hahaha, it makes sense!"

Qi Lei, "Where are you from?"

"Guangzhou."

"That's right, they are in Shenzhen, let's apply for the job!"

[Beautiful Girl Qiqi]: "How do you know they are in Shenzhen?"

I really stopped asking Qi Lei and could only change the subject, "It doesn't matter, they don't need you, then come to me! I use you, and the salary is not lower than Guangzhou."

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "???"

After a while, Qi Lei did not answer, "Aren't you seventeen? What do you do?"

Qi Lei, "opens an Internet cafe."

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "!!!"

"Then quickly install OICQ in your Internet cafes, and there will be more people chatting!"

Qi Lei is almost certain now that this is Penguin's childcare!

I finally know how Tonyma completes the accumulation of original users. Is it okay to hire a bunch of young girls to accompany the chat?

As he rolled his eyes, he typed a line on the chat interface slowly, "This is not anxious, it depends on the performance of this software."

[Beautiful girl Qiqi]: "What do you mean?"

Qi Lei, "I'm an Internet cafe chain here, and I'm very cautious in choosing installed software."

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "Chain!? How many are there?"

Qi Lei: "Currently there are more than two hundred, less than 20,000 machines!"

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "..."

This time there was silence for a long, long time. Tang Yi and Wu Ning both returned from buying food, and only then did the beautiful girl Qiqi send a message.

"Well, let's be honest with you, I'm the customer service of this software, and I change my number after get off work."

Qi Lei raised his eyebrows, "Really?"

[Beautiful Girl Seven Seven]: "If you don't believe me, wait for me to get on the customer service number."

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Lei received a friend prompt.

This time the screen name is more direct, [OICQ customer service], number: 10.

[OICQ Customer Service]: "Believe it?"

"Can you let your Internet cafe install our software? We have just been established, and quite a bit of installation is needed."

Qi Lei picked up his job while typing with one hand.

"Ask you something."

[OICQ Customer Service]: "Say!"

Qi Lei, "Do you want to invest?"

[OICQ Customer Service]: "……"

Qi Lei: "Really, no kidding, I have money! Why don't we meet? Let's talk in person!"

"..."

The other side stopped talking, but Qi Lei laughed, wouldn't he be scared?

As a result, the customer service went offline, and the pretty girl Qiqi also went offline.

"Damn! Really scared away?"

Tang Yi and Wu Ning looked curiously, "What scared you away?"

Qi Lei grinned, "It's okay."

While eating with everyone, I felt funny in my heart.

...

At the same time, in an office somewhere in Shenzhen, an elegant young man in his twenties with glasses propped his chin and looked at the two computers in front of him.

For a long time, bitterly complained, "I thought it was an opportunity, but turned out to be a liar! Is this to cheat?"

He just said, who is so awesome, with two hundred Internet cafes and twenty thousand machines, it's just a joke.

But it was anxious for a while and believed it to be true.

Clear up your mood, return the number of Pretty Girl 77, and log in again [Beautiful Girl Seven Eight].

The other computer is on the 【Beautiful Boy Seventeen】

Five newly registered users were added one after another.

Hi! Pretty boy!

Hi! pretty girl! !

No way, as a chat software that has just been launched, the chat service must be in place!

While chatting with different netizens, we yelled, "Zhongzhong, we have to add a stealth function to this software, and it's best to support multiple client logins at the same time."

Over there, Zhang Zhizhong sent a stubborn guy and raised his head, "It will be done tomorrow! By the way, how many registered users are there?"

"270!"

"It's so fast! It's 270 in two days? Strive to break 10,000 in a month!"

But the man with glasses said again: "I have to discuss the registration rules in a while. The new user guesses that we don't have many users by looking at the number. This is not good."

"In this way, change the OICQ number to five digits, from the 10000 to the back, it seems that there are more people."

"Simple." Zhang Zhizhong replied, and continued to bury his head and use the female horn to pick up the big man with his feet.

This is an era of burning passion. Like Qi Lei, the names of the following generations are full of enthusiasm and have just embarked on the avenue of dreams.

for example.:

Tonyma is still a 28-year-old young man, his Penguin Empire is still a small software that has just landed, and he and his friends have to use chat to retain customers.

Jack Ma is also only 35 years old. His Chinese Yellow Pages only sold for 100,000 yuan. He is calling his eighteen arhats to set sail again and start a business website called Ali.

Li Duniang is 31 years old and still working as a younger brother in Silicon Valley. It will take time to return to China.

Dongge is the youngest, only 26. He just started to be an agent in Zhongguancun, selling out magnet products.

Um! I don’t know if it’s a CD-ROM video tape with or without a number.

At this time, the Internet giants are still the world of Ding, Zhang, and Wang.

The 31-year-old Rebs has just become famous and has secured his position as the general manager of Jinshan.

Immediately behind the big brothers, there are also predecessors who have entered the arena with venture capital funds and domineering airborne.

Although these few people are not in the pool, they can only be regarded as unnamed people who are suffering, and they are less than a battle.

However, everyone is the same as Qi Lei, passionate, drilling at every opportunity, looking for their place in the wave of the times, waiting for the moment that soars into the sky.

Perhaps this is the best interpretation of this era.

opportunity! challenge! Create a legend! !

Just now Qi Lei just asked boring casually, even annoying, but didn't know that he had been regarded as a liar.

However, it doesn't matter, even if you know it, Qi Lei is probably more thinking about it as a joke.

Everyone has their own trajectory and their own excitement, so why bother to grab others' brilliance?

I want to stand up if it's a tuyere, it's a wind turbine!

...

School starts on March 1.

Qi Lei has officially returned to the status of a student from a small entrepreneurial boss.

Although the three good students Qi Lei, Xu Qian and Yang Xiao were violently scolded by Liu Yitong, the whole class saw the jokes.

However, the three of them vowed and vowed that the monthly test would definitely not regress, which calmed Lao Liu's anger.

Afterwards, Fang Bing ran over to report the letter in a humble manner, "Head of the team, you are in danger, the grandson of Zhou Zhizhou has a bad hair this winter vacation, and he wants to kill you!"

Qi Lei subconsciously looked in the back row, only to see Zhou Zhizhou sullenly doing the question, shook his head and sighed, "What a grudge! Why are you staring at me?"

Dong Weicheng also came over, "Thousands of thousands, ten thousand-year-old third, I'm not convinced to put it aside!"

Qi Lei, "You can pull it down! You have to be the third to last for ten thousand years! How about the second to last at the end of the term?"

"Eh? Eh eh!?" Dong Weicheng was anxious, "No, no, no short-cuts! This time it should be Fang Bing this time, I am third from the bottom."

Fang Bing grinned, "You pull it down! This time I'm still third, so stay second!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Dong didn't know where he came out, and one person gave them a kick.

Grandma's! Who are you scolding? I won’t be the last one with co-authoring?

Qi Lei watched these three live treasures laugh, and smiled knowingly, and then got serious.

Especially, Zhou Zhizhou can't be overtaken!

Now turn on the unfailing mode, swear to the death to defend the glory of the first.

It's a pity that Xu Xiaoqian shook her head and sighed~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Young man, he was still too naive! The first is mine, you should go back to the second and stay there!

In the following days, it is natural to study hard and make progress every day.

It's just that a simple life of quiet and hard work is not something you can have if you want.

As mentioned before, sometimes, in the dark, your own power pushes you away from the expected trajectory, and a piece of news pulls Qi Lei out of simple life.

After studying at night, Qi Lei was tutoring Yan Ling's homework while carrying Chinese texts on his back.

Wu Ning held the English workbook and lay on half of the sofa to do multiple-choice questions.

Tang Xiaoyi...

This grandson is very good at health, soaked his feet and fell asleep with a roll of paper on his face.

The TV is on, it's just turned off and muted.

The channel is the CCTV, which is broadcasting the evening news.

Nobody watches TV, just drives it comfortably. Anyway, no adults, you can come whatever you want.

It's just that Qi Lei raised his head unconsciously and couldn't help but brows. He subconsciously picked up the remote control and turned on the volume.

"This Taiwanese correspondent in Europe sent back a report. The leaders of Germany, France and other countries issued a statement on March 6, local time, condemning the ethnic crimes committed by the Yugoslav Democratic Alliance forces in the Kosovo region."

"Order the Yugoslav government to stop the massacre of Albanians in Kosovo. Germany will work with international organizations to take necessary humanitarian actions in Kosovo to maintain peace and stability in the Balkans."

Subconsciously glanced at the desk calendar on the table: March 7th.

Unable to be a little dazed, a memory of NATO's bombing of Yugoslavia spontaneously emerged in his heart.

...

.

Yesterday, a manuscript with more than 10,000 words was scrapped, and the plot that followed was repeatedly entangled.

There are only two shifts today, so let's leave soon.
