Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

ps: It happened that when I wrote this paragraph, this song was playing in my headphones, [victory-two steps from hell], which is a bit fitting for the occasion.

{Time: July 22-26, 2002}

If you spread out the world map, the eastern time zone starts from London, where Europe falls on the prime meridian, and crosses the international day boundary to New York, which is in the more western time zone. The time span in between is 7-13 hours.

July 22nd, when flowers are planted, may be the 22nd in Germany, the UK, or Paris, or it may be the 21st in the United States.

Such a time span means that the promotion work of the skrpe team has almost no time to rest when facing the countries of Europe and America.

On the first day that skrpe went online, at 23:00 in the evening, Han Qinghua took a look at the depressed but still energetic people in "Xiaobai's Home" and could only stand outside the conference room and helplessly shake his head.

"I heard from the second master that when the first master was still at Beibao, he would occasionally be busy for three days and three nights?"

Han Qinghua followed the sound and saw that Yang Jian looked inside happily like Maitreya. His gaze landed on Ning Zimo, who had his back turned to this side.

Pouring his lips, Han Qinghua cast his gaze in the same direction as Yang Jian, "In the last semester of his senior year in high school, when he told his family that he was going to take a break from school for half a year, my brother-in-law who is now going to Shanghai Jiaotong University told me that the headmaster started from that

I went to bed at 1 a.m. and got up at 6:30 a.m.

After he sold [Nuwa] to Beibao last year, I took Lu Zhenyu to the United States for nearly half a year. In the first one and a half months when Beibao was implementing the [Nuwa] project, I saw him often bringing a few

An engineer is busy day and night.

He can write a human-computer verification software in 14 hours and earn 100,000 yuan, and he can also quickly sell the software that we spent 4 months to build to Beibao and earn another 13.60,000 U.S. dollars."

After a pause, Han Qinghua looked away from Ning Zimo's back, looked at Yang Jian and said with a smile, "So, although I didn't see him busy for three days and three nights with my own eyes, I think this is probably a common thing.

"

"It's great to be young," Yang Jian thought of some fascinating fragments in his mind as he spoke, and he smiled, "I was surprised by his broad vision when we first met, and now I am amazed by the achievements he has achieved through hard work.

Attracted. I have to say, he is an excellent leader, so our team is so different."

Both of them knew what the other meant, so they looked at each other and smiled.

Yang Jian took another look at the independent monitor in "Xiaobai's Home", and the number on it already showed 42841.

Squinting his eyes, Yang Jian asked curiously, "It's not even 24 hours yet. What is the level of this number of users in the Internet industry?"

After pondering for a while, Han Qinghua suddenly raised his brows and said, "The things that Big Boss does are always in areas that we can't think of. I can only take the Foxmail that was sold at 12 million in 2000 as an example. That software relied on 3 years of

Over time, it has accumulated more than 2 million domestic users."

"There are only 2 million users in three years, and their skrpe project team has more than 40,000 users in one day." Yang Jian's eyes widened.

"The software types are different, and the reference is not very big." Han Qinghua shook his head after hearing this, then nodded again and said, "It's just that there are still more than 7 hours before the first release time. I estimate that skrpe users

I’m afraid the quantity will exceed 60,000 today.”

"Hey, if you calculate this, you can have more than 2,000 users a year?" Yang Jian's eyes widened again.

Han Qinghua smiled bitterly and spread his hands, "This is a software for the world. If the number of users is only more than 2,000 in a year, our boss will definitely be dissatisfied."

Hearing what he said, Yang Jian suddenly felt speechless.

He really doesn't understand the Internet, but 20 million people around the world use one software, which is an incredible number in his field of vision.

Han Qinghua and Yang Jian have known each other for a while, and they can still detect something from Yang Jian's facial expressions.

He looked at the screen again and found that the number had increased by more than 500 in such a short period of time to 43389.

Pouting his lips, Han Qinghua murmured, "Judging from his level of investment, this is probably a very influential project. So I'm afraid I can't even imagine the outcome of this project."

While talking, chaotic footsteps came from the door, and a group of people carrying bags came over under the leadership of Tang Ruiwen.

When they got closer, Tang Ruiwen smiled and said hello to the two of them before taking the lead in walking into "Xiao Bai's home".

Looking at this posture, Han Qinghua knew that this group of people was going to stay up all night.

After thinking about it, Han Qinghua suddenly grabbed Yang Jian's arm and said, "I have to make a call and talk to the people in our team to find a few smart-minded guys to take over the work at their hands tomorrow morning."

"Yes, yes," Yang Jian nodded quickly upon hearing this, "They definitely don't do this in a day or two. You need to help coordinate."

While talking, Tang Ruiwen walked out with a frown on her face. Yang Jian greeted her and asked curiously, "What's the matter?"

"The dean said to find them a speaker."

"Speaker, what are you using it for?"

"He said he would play some intense music at night to cheer everyone up."

"Hey, eating barbecue, drinking Red Bull, and even using spicy strips, isn't it enough to wake you up?" Yang Jian said in surprise.

When Han Qinghua heard this, he suddenly remembered, "I have a set at home. I will go back and move it to them now."

“Let’s go, I’ll drive you back and forth~~”

While talking, the two leaders, Dibaobao and Luban, walked out the door. Tang Ruiwen looked at the hurried backs of the two people and could only smile helplessly.

There is no way, this is the usual rhythm of emperor penguins from top to bottom.

…

The next morning, Li Ying specially asked Wang Ziqi to drive her family car to the office. The two arrived at Emperor Penguin at 8:30 in the morning, but what they did not expect was that the office turned out to be a bustling scene.

scene.

The door of "Xiao Bai's Home" was wide open, and exciting music came from the conference room. Li Ying heard it clearly, and it turned out to be a song called "Crawling" from Linkin Park's "Hybrid Theory" album last year.

Li Ying walked over curiously, and when she stood by the door, she saw a group of people inside with red eyes, shaking their heads but still staring at the monitor.

And the independent monitor suddenly displayed 73192! And during the 2 seconds she was looking at the screen, the single digit of that number kept jumping up and down in units of seconds.

Just as Li Ying was surprised, there was a burst of chaotic footsteps coming from the direction of the Emperor Penguin's door.

She looked back and saw Han Qinghua and about 10 people rushing over.

When they met each other, Han Qinghua asked in surprise, "They didn't just stay up all night, right?"

Li Ying shrugged and spread her hands, "What do you think?"

While the two were still communicating, a burst of excited footsteps suddenly came from the door.

The next second, Ning Zimo appeared in front of the two people with a depressed and excited expression.

Ning Zimo was in a daze when he saw a large circle of people standing in front of him.

But Li Ying stood there and he could see clearly.

He walked forward excitedly, reached out and grabbed her arm and said excitedly, "Hoffman and the others decided to leave their jobs and plant flowers together! Hahahaha, now I can concentrate on promoting skrpe."

"Hoffman?" Han Qinghua asked curiously.

"They are the boss's colleagues at Beibao," Li Ying raised her lips. She had seen them before and naturally realized what this news meant to Ning Zimo. "They should have come to plant flowers and have a chat with the boss.

Things to develop in the future.”

But Li Ying was so excited that Ning Zimo grabbed her arm in public. Such an intimate gesture made Li Ying feel her face getting hot.

Li Ying, who was unable to react in time, could only say quietly, "But you still have to rest."

"Yes, I'm here to take over with my support team." As he spoke, Han Qinghua leaned to the side and immediately let out the 10 or so people behind him.

Affected by his movements, Ning Zimo suddenly glanced in the direction of Han Qinghua and found that behind him were Lin Changxin and others.

Seeing that Ning Zimo was in a daze, Han Qinghua hurriedly explained. "Last night, everyone decided to take over for you this morning and continue the promotion work of skrpe. I watched it yesterday and there were not many technical problems, so as long as

Once the handover is clear, they can just take care of it."

"Yes, boss, we are here. You have a rest and come back." Lin Changxin waved his fist, "We will not hold you back."

"Yes, boss, we will take over, you guys have a good rest first."

"That's right, boss, we won't hold you back."

Only then did Ning Zimo react, his eyes scanning the faces of several people.

Finally,

Ning Zimo,

Smiled and nodded.

…

On the morning of July 26, Su Mucheng had been serving as skrpe customer service for 5 days. During these days, she felt that she had said everything she wanted to say in her life. But she was the only girl in the skrpe team, and she had been looking for someone a few days ago.

There is no suitable successor.

Fortunately, as the number of users gradually increased in the past five days, the number of people who contacted customer service directly was gradually decreasing. And she finally had some time to find other girls from the Luban team to train and share the customer service of the CS1 account with her

Work.

No, it was Yang Jie who took over the shift this morning, so she had time to make herself a cup of coffee.

On the way back to her seat with her coffee in hand, Su Mucheng's mind was filled with the rapid growth in the number of users in recent days.

It has only been five days since skrpe went online. Only 123 hours have passed from the first day to 9 a.m. today. skrpe already has 51,000 users, and the number of users has increased by 13,000 in the past 24 hours.

This data inexplicably made her feel astonishing. Su Mucheng felt as if a gust of wind was pushing her when she walked, making her feel light and airy.

After more than a year of silence in the past, we finally got results this week. And even the boss is quite proud of this result. This makes every member of the skrpe team very excited.

This past year has not been in vain!

While Su Mucheng was getting excited, a hand suddenly grabbed her arm, causing her to almost spill her coffee.

"Ah, Chengcheng, I'm sorry, I was too excited." Wang Ziqi saw that her recklessness almost caused negative consequences and quickly apologized.

When Su Mucheng saw it was Wang Ziqi, she smiled and said, "Ziqi, what are you so excited about?"

Seeing the smile on Su Mucheng's face, Wang Ziqi stuck out her tongue and quickly pointed at her monitor and said to her, "Chengcheng, look at it. In the customer email I received for signing, there is actually a customer who has signed up for us.

skrpe account."

"Oh?" Su Mucheng raised her eyebrows and quickly moved her head over.

Following Wang Ziqi's finger, she saw at a glance that there was indeed a Skype account displayed in the email signature file on the screen.

"It has only been five days, but there are already trade customers using our skrpe as a tool for external communication?" Su Mucheng couldn't restrain her excitement and hurriedly said to Wang Ziqi, "Ziqi, please use your skype to contact us.

Let him take a look."

The day after skrpe went online, Yang Jian, Han Qinghua and Li Ying worked together to apply skrpe internally.

Especially in the treasure hunting trade, it is normal to hang up skrpe every day.

Wang Ziqi hurriedly opened the Skype interface to add the customer's account. Within a minute, it showed that the customer had passed her friend verification. Wang Ziqi excitedly dialed the voice call, and within a few seconds, the voice call was connected.

"Hi, Amy."

"Hi, Aaron."

"Wow, that's cool. Your company has also started using skrpe?"

When Wang Ziqi heard the customer's praise, she smiled happily and said, "Aaron, skrpe was developed by a company of a friend I know."

"Wow, your friend actually developed such a communication tool. We should really thank him."

"Thank you, I will wait for you to convey it."

"Okay, since you contacted me using skrpe, I would like to talk about the keyboard, mouse and monitor order we are currently talking about. I think the delivery time is no problem. We will discuss the price in detail based on cif delivery.

…”

Su Mucheng could only hear Wang Ziqi's voice from the side, but she noticed that Wang Ziqi's expression was getting more and more excited, and he even reached out to hold her tightly.

Su Mucheng looked confused and could only let her hold him.

After about two minutes, Wang Ziqi threw the headset aside and stared at Su Mucheng with her big shining eyes. After another two seconds, Wang Ziqi threw herself into Su Mucheng's arms and hugged her tightly.

Hold her tightly.

"Chengcheng, I received an order through your skrpe. A British customer placed a 2 million peripheral order!" Wang Ziqi was so excited as she hugged Su Mucheng. She couldn't tell whether she was happy for herself or for the one in her arms.

The girl is happy.

But she just wanted to hold Su Mucheng, because they could all see the hard work of the skrpe team in the past few days.

She just wanted to pass on the joy of this order to her, "Chengcheng, you are really great, you are really great!!!"

Wang Ziqi's excited voice attracted the attention of everyone around him. Chen Siyu, who was beside Wang Ziqi, explained on his behalf. This joy immediately spread to every place in the office.

Everyone from Luban Technology and Diggao Trade stood up. They cheered and jumped for the result of this joint effort.

In "Baker Street", Ning Zimo poked his head out when he heard the sound, and it took him a long time to figure out from Tang Ruiwen what these guys were excited about.

Although I know that the post-pricing work was only completed through skrpe, Wang Ziqi did a good job!

The team should be like this in the early stage.

After pulling Tang Ruiwen and giving some gentle instructions, the girl nodded, with a smile on her face, and ran to make arrangements.

After thinking about it, Ning Zimo walked to Su Mucheng and Wang Ziqi, looked at the two girls who couldn't restrain their excitement, and simply shouted louder:

“Tonight’s rooftop barbecue, let’s have a drunken celebration!”

Boom~~~

Emperor Penguins suddenly caused a sensation!
