Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

{Time: February 14, 2003}

{Location: Special Zone-Emperor Penguin}

This day is a good day for employees. Not only can they get huge bonuses, but they can also celebrate the Lantern Festival. The important thing is that this day is also Valentine’s Day!

Lu Zhenyu and Laura are the main characters, a couple that envies others, filling the office with a strong sour taste of love.

Ning Zimo, who sensed something was wrong, had no choice but to lock himself up in Baker Street and hide, except for a few words with Luo Shuohan from PricewaterhouseCoopers. Even the coffee was brought in by Tang Ruiwen.

Who built the Emperor Penguin?

Why is it so unfriendly to singles?

Even though he and Wei Ni are nominally boyfriend and girlfriend, they are both extremely busy and far apart, and they are still single. How can they withstand the sour stimulation outside?

He didn't realize it until Wang Ziqi knocked on the door with two dogs.

It's already 23:00 now.

"Master, everyone is gone now, do you want me to give you a ride?"

"Hey, how good is the relationship? Today I just want to go back to Lianhua North. Taking a bus to save money makes me happy!"

Hearing this, Wang Ziqi couldn't help but rolled her eyes longingly. Now who doesn't know that this is a big boss with a net worth of over 100 million, but he still cares about these twenty or thirty yuan?

Ning Zimo knew that he was despised when he saw her look, but he didn't care. After all, there were too few people who could understand his ideals at this time.

Although another US$35 million was earned in the second half of 2002, this total of nearly 300 million yuan was only a drop in the bucket in the Internet industry.

Even if Luban, Dibao and skrpe are already making profits, which project among Lingying, ACS, Bing and Myspace does not require large sums of money?

In addition to the 20 million invested last year, we need to add another 30 million this year. The remaining money plus the balance of the money earned in Beibao will only be 15 million that can be used.

So what if this money is thrown into the current project? What I lack now is a lot of cash.

No one can bear their own share of these things.

Seeing that the boss was just packing his things quietly after being "despised", Wang Ziqi was a little worried about making him unhappy.

But she remembered what he had just said, and she suddenly realized, "Master, are you going out again in a few days?"

"Yes, the dividend plan has been released, and the next steps of Luban Technology have been arranged in the near future." Ning Zimo put on his backpack and asked with a smile, "How do you feel about your earnings in the past few months?"

Are you still satisfied?"

Seeing Ning Zimo throw the bag on her body, Wang Ziqi felt that the scene at that moment had a bleak meaning. But when she saw him smiling and asking, she quickly threw away that thought.

Trying to put on a bright smile, Wang Ziqi said happily, "Master, I have been thinking about being independent for many years. I didn't expect that since I came to our company, I would have such a huge success in just a few months."

Harvest.”

Such a big gain is a pronoun. Although the company does not explicitly prohibit discussing income, on the surface everyone still follows the rules of the workplace.

Ning Zimo took the rope she handed her and said with a smile as he went out with her: "You're in the top three and your grades are quite good. Now you can choose a luxury house."

"Well, I like flowers, plants and small animals, but my family never lets me touch these things." Wang Ziqi said angrily, "After I become independent this time, I will raise two cats at home, so that every day when I go back

You can watch them fight, but don’t damage the plants I raise.”

"Hey, you can take care of me, but I've never seen you cook."

"How do you know~~You have never seen me in real life."

The lights in the elevator were slightly dim, but Wang Ziqi's eyes shone with a certain light in the dimness. The dazzling moment made Ning Zimo quickly turn his head.

Valentine's Day and being alone make the atmosphere at this moment a bit weird.

It wasn't until he escaped from the car with his two little ones that Ning Zimo felt that he had regained his freedom.

Wang Ziqi looked at the figure walking briskly from behind for a long time. She didn't sigh until he disappeared around the corner.

…

When Wang Ziqi drove the car forward slowly, she was slightly disappointed and did not realize that the two people on the roadside were her colleagues.

Lin Changxin was lost in thought as he watched the two shadows on the ground move from the side to in front of him and get very close to each other.

At this time, I suddenly heard Zhang Xinyi beside me asking myself softly:

"Axin, I think you have been quite busy recently."

"It's okay," Lin Changxin nodded cautiously, "After all, my background is very poor. I am just a technical secondary school graduate. The boss brought me into programming. I will definitely have to work hard to catch up with everyone else."

"Actually, you have worked very hard."

Lin Changxin was very happy to receive "praise" from Zhang Xinyi.

"Thanks……"

"Actually..." Zhang Xinyi was somewhat prepared, but finally continued, "Among us, I am the one who should say thank you. I have lost myself for such a long time. If I hadn't met you and taken me away from that

In this place, I will definitely be lost and unable to find the value of my existence."

When Lin Changxin heard this, he didn't know what to say for a moment, because Zhang Xinyi's words immediately brought him back to the time when they met.

At that time, they only met once, but her kind nature allowed her to escape with a simple thought.

But that day, in the endless stream of people, a few steps away, with whom she had only met once, she stood there alone, holding the phone.

She was anxious because she was worried about him, a stranger, and even a string of tears fell down her cheeks. Her unfocused eyes were full of compassion.

This scene is still engraved in Lin Changxin's mind.

In fact, he couldn't remember where he got the courage to take her and escape from there. Maybe it was because he was aware of the danger, or maybe there was something stirring in his heart at that moment.

More than three months have passed since then. He and she would occasionally talk to each other when they met, but it had always been a very awkward relationship.

I don’t know when this kind of day will end, maybe it will be after the company’s year-end dividend. Because as the main sales force in Nuremberg, Zhang Xinyi should get a lot of profits.

Perhaps when the company purchases a large house this time, she may move away from here...

At that time, those awkward ways of getting along in the past may have changed due to distance.

However, when he thought that this would be the case, Lin Chang's confidence felt empty.

When Lin Changxin was thinking wildly, he felt someone grabbed the clothes on his wrist.

He turned around dully and saw Zhang Xinyi looking at him timidly.

Being stared at by Lin Changxin, Zhang Xinyi didn't know where to look for a while, her eyes darted around and couldn't find a suitable focus.

It took a long time for her to spit out the three words she had just held back by "thank you".

"Thank you……"

"Um?"

"Axin... thank you. Although you always say thank you to me, only I know what your invitation to leave Chang'an meant to me. From that day on, I was supported by you and gradually found myself.

direction.

Now in the company, I can finally rely on myself and be needed by you. This feeling is actually quite important to me."

Zhang Xinyi said these words right in front of Lin Changxin, with a smile on her lips.

But Lin Changxin could clearly see a trace of water line on her face, slowly sliding down her cheek.

By some strange coincidence, Lin Changxin's mind came to the action that he had thought about for a long time but did not dare to do the last time he saw this scene.

He stretched out his hand to help her wipe away her tears, but Lin Changxin thought of all the things he had done in the past, so he raised the corners of his mouth and said,

"Actually, you don't need to thank me, because I have seen myself in you. I am a child of a divorced family. I didn't like studying when I was a child, so I don't have much foundation. If it weren't for a chance encounter with the boss, I wouldn't know that I

Where will he be now?

This year of growth finally made me realize that the negative influence of my original family was once like a demon buried in my heart, subconsciously driving and tormenting me all the time.

But this year I finally stopped letting it take over. I finally dared to face it, talk to it in my heart, and coexist peacefully with it. I finally recognized it as a part of me, and I stopped resisting and let it live in my life.

It stands like a mirror in the inner world.

I don’t know what happened to you in the past, but let me assume that we all have an imperfect starting point, and this point of departure makes our growth path more bumpy.

But it doesn’t matter, aren’t we all adults now? In fact, we can bear the past, and we can even use the standing mirror to reflect our own unbearable past, and turn that frustrated power into our own perseverance.

Work hard to grow.

In the end, we will be able to transcend the shackles of our original family and grow up to be what we want in our own family. Those things that were not given to us in the past are the power, trust, companionship, acceptance, listening, empathy, and permission contained in love.

, we can all find it back and pass it on to the people around us and to the next generation.

Including ourselves and our parents, whoever has not made a mistake is willing to make a mistake. Compared with death and giving up, it may be much harder to reflect on one's past and move towards a better and higher direction.

.But as long as we are willing, the future is the most important.

Aren't people the same as trees? The more they yearn for the sunshine at high places, the more their roots will stretch into the dark underground. If people want to grow, they will inevitably encounter many hardships, setbacks, failures and hardships. And if they want to be closer to success, they will

To go further, you must seek challenges and surpass yourself.

So our biggest enemy is not from anyone who is better than us, but from our own inner demons. People with good conditions are certainly enviable, but compared with them, people like us who have never experienced setbacks are actually worse than

They have more dark power.

If this dark force can be so powerful that it can destroy a person's happiness and joy, I must also believe that they can also become fertilizer that makes me stronger and more viable."

Lin Changxin spoke very slowly, but every word was expressed clearly.

He knows that he is actually the same as Zhang Xinyi,

In those days in the past, I was full of confusion about the future.

Until one day, the boss, who was born in the same year, month and day as him, appeared in front of him.

The boss stood there like a beacon in the darkness, allowing him to always have a clear goal on his way forward.

Those things he saw and experienced with his own eyes, those things he discussed with the masters. In the past year or so, he has used the books he has read, the roads he has traveled, and the spiritual world and real world he has explored to integrate it into

Together they become introspected and verified insights.

Lin Changxin hoped that she could see the same things as he saw, because sometimes he really felt that she seemed to be in the same world as him.

Under the dim street light, Lin Changxin suddenly felt a dark shadow approaching. The next second, he realized that it was Zhang Xinyi who had thrown herself into his arms.

She was still sobbing slightly, and some warmth soaked her top.

Those physical sensations were so clear that his body muscles suddenly became stiff.

He was at a loss, and after a while, he heard a soft voice whispering in his ear.

"The part about people and trees is Nietzsche's words, right? I read it when I was in college. I didn't understand the meaning at that time, but now I can explain it to you. You are right. Although there have been so many misfortunes in the past, the future will be the best.

is the most important thing. I will learn to embrace the darkness, face it, and make good use of this power to make myself stronger inside.

The road is long, but I know I am still young. You have given me the courage, and I muster up the courage to go for it.

Really, thank you very much!”

Lin Changxin's body, tense due to Zhang Xinyi's embrace, slowly relaxed as she whispered soft words in his ear.

Silently raising his right hand, Lin Changxin patted Zhang Xinyi's back gently.

Lin Changxin felt that,

This hug has nothing to do with men or women.

It's more like the lonely children in each other's hearts giving each other encouragement,

Let each other move forward in the dark.
