Rebirth of the Internet Overlord

"When it comes to the creation and development of European and American companies, they almost always develop with garages or residential buildings. In the early stages of development, many large companies started to make their first pot of gold in their own or rented houses.

The famous Hewlett-Packard, Chevrolet and Harley, which can represent the spirit of the United States, are all representatives of the American garage culture. Nowadays, these companies have developed greatly, so please don't be surprised that our PayPal company is in a barn."

During the several-hour drive back to Ning Zimo, Chen Shijun showed his master's side. After chatting about life topics, he introduced Ning Zimo to the current situation of PayPal.

Ning Zimo felt that he was worried that he would have a huge psychological gap after seeing that Paypal was working in a barn.

In fact, when Ning Zimo looked at the barn, he was not surprised at all. Instead, he admired the steadiness of Americans in this era.

In the 20th century, many American entrepreneurs chose garages as the starting point for their businesses. By the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, this phenomenon had not diminished.

Just like Amazon and Google, which are still in the development stage, they both started in a garage.

Just like Luban Technology now only has an ordinary office of 100 square meters, who says it cannot develop into a multinational giant in the future?

Ning Zimo shook his head indifferently, "This is the only way for every start-up company. For us programmers, doesn't it mean that as long as we have the Internet and computers, we can change the world?"

"Bingo, what you said is absolutely right!" Chen Shijun stepped on the accelerator and drove away, saying excitedly, "As long as we are doing something as cool as changing the world, it doesn't matter where we are!"

Ning Zimo turned back and took another deep look at Paypal's barn office.

That is where I will work in the next year.

…

The car drove in twists and turns and drove for another 10 minutes. Chen Shijun parked the car next to a restaurant, turned off the engine and said:

"Levchin suggested that Pan Yu and I move out of our current place, and then the three of us rent an apartment together."

Pan Yu got out of the car and followed up, patting Ning Zimo on the shoulder, "We both think this is a good idea. We are the closest in age in the engineering team, and we had a great time working together when you were working part-time. And we both think you

There seem to be a lot of fun things in my mind, and renting them together can help cultivate a tacit understanding."

"That's a good idea, so thank you very much." Ning Zimo nodded happily, acquiescing to the two of them sharing a house with a caring attitude.

Ning Zimo didn't even mention the idea of ​​taking care of minors, so Ning Zimo secretly accepted the kindness of the two of them.

After all, this way of getting along will make the relationship between the three of them closer, which will make it easier for me to make plans to drag them together in the future!

Ning Zimo took the opportunity and waved his hand proudly, "Then I'll treat you to a feast first, thank you for your past and future care, and celebrate the shared life in advance."

"Okay."

After eating, the trio began today's rental trip. Although Chen Shijun and Pan Yu had planned several intended locations in advance, it still took several hours.

Most apartments in the United States are houses with many rooms connected by a corridor. There are not many houses of this type in this area. The main reason is that it takes a lot of time to choose the house. Some of the things in the house are too old.

Some houses have individual tenants.

Until he passed by a room where three beauties were said to live, Chen Shijun was very moved.

The real estate agent raised his eyebrows with an expression that every man would understand, "If you want a beautiful neighbor, then you have to rent the one next door. But four people can live there, so the rent is naturally more expensive, costing 2,100 yuan."

Ning Zimo had already learned that the price was above average in this area, but Chen Shijun seemed to be very attracted to beautiful women. Pan Yu immediately thought of taking care of his emotions, and unconsciously looked at Ning Zimo.

Ning Zimo also saw Chen Shijun's eagerness to give it a try, "It's 700 yuan for three people. It's easy to calculate, so let's go and have a look."

As soon as the room next door opened, Ning Zimo was a little surprised. Because the decoration of this room was different from all the interiors he saw today, there were many patterns graffitied on the wall.

"The last tenant was a band, and they decorated this place as their own paradise. But for some unknown reason, they left some instruments behind and couldn't take them away. Especially the drum set took up a lot of space.

"

The real estate agent stood at the door of a bedroom and pointed. The three of them followed and saw at a glance the drums, electric pianos, guitars and other musical instruments scattered in the bedroom. This was obviously the same as the house he just said could accommodate four people.

Very different.

However, Ning Zimo was surprised that any band would give up all the people who eat?

But seeing that Chen Shijun still maintained his interest in this house, the real estate agent said at the right time, "If you are willing to rent it, I can give you a cheaper price of 1,950 yuan."

Chen Shijun nodded and was about to speak. Ning Zimo smiled first and said, "1,800 yuan, that's the price we rented."

"Okay, deal done." The real estate agent seemed to be relieved, and then added, "This house has just been vacated not long ago, and we haven't had time to clean it yet. We will arrange for someone to come in soon. Now, who of you will sign the contract with me?"

."

…

After signing the contract and getting the keys, Chen Shijun and Pan Yu took Ning Zimo to buy some daily necessities. The three of them were chatting and laughing and were about to enter the apartment building when two blonde girls walked towards them.

One of them attracted attention with her flaming red lips and enchanting figure. When Chen Shijun was stunned, she glanced at the three of them, nodded and walked into the apartment with her friends first.

"Let's go, is this the case?" Ning Zimo pushed Chen Shijun and said softly.

"Beauty." Chen Shijun hurriedly stepped forward, "Beauty can keep people happy."

Chen Shijun led the team to speed up, and what was surprising was that the two girls were actually on the same floor.

What's even more surprising is that they are actually the three beautiful neighbors.

When Pan Yu opened the door, Chen Shijun was constantly looking at the neighbor. He didn't know where he got the courage. Chen Shijun took the initiative to wave his hand:

"Hi, the three of us just moved here. I am Chen," pointing to the two people beside him, "this is Ning and Pan."

"Kelly," the red-lipped girl introduced herself generously, while letting go of her friends, "Bella, the three of us live here."

"You have time to have a drink together?"

"Okay, let's make another appointment."

The girl responded generously, waved her hand and walked into the room.

Just before the door closed, she heard her voice, "Weini, we are back..."

"Another girl?" Chen Shijun raised his eyebrows, "What a coincidence, 3 versus 3?"
