Rewrite the Technological Landscape

Probably because of memories, Meng Qian walked directly to the Nokia area, because the first mobile phone he ever used was a Nokia.

"What kind of mobile phone do you want, young man?" The shopping guide asked enthusiastically after seeing Meng Qian coming over.

young man?

Meng Qian couldn't help being taken aback, looking at the shopping guide in front of him who should be under 30 years old, Meng Qian unconsciously thought of Li Qi's expression before.

All of a sudden, Meng Qian himself realized the problem Li Qi said, he was acting a little too mature outside, you must know that he is only a freshman now.

Because the students are not very thoughtful, and he has very little contact with his classmates during this time, so he doesn't feel much at school.

But in society, when I face more and more old foxes in the future, my maturity that does not match my actual age will naturally easily confuse people.

Before Li Qi told Ma Yun that Meng Qian was very comfortable with the title of Mr. Meng. In fact, this was not accurate. Li still knew it, and he couldn't help but want Ma Yun and Li Qi to call him Lao Meng.

After all, from the real age of 39 years old in 2020, Ma Yun and Li Qi at this time are two younger brothers in front of him.

After knowing his problem, Meng Qian immediately made psychological contributions for himself, no matter how uncomfortable he was, he had to slowly adapt to his current age.

Such things as rebirth must not be known by others, otherwise it will be unpredictable.

"Young man?" Seeing that Meng Qian was distracted, the shopping guide called out.

"Ah? Oh, I'm sorry." Meng Qian came back to his senses and looked at the mobile phone in the cabinet. "Is there any recommended model?"

"What's your budget?" the shopping guide asked.

This question is really difficult for Meng Qian. He has long forgotten the price standard of mobile phones in this era.

Fortunately, the price of the mobile phone in the cabinet is marked on the bottom, and the price can be quite large.

Meng Qian quickly scanned around and said, "Two to three thousand, four to five thousand are fine, mainly on the phone."

"Then I recommend that you take a look at this one, the Nokia 6150, which was just released in October last year. This blue color has a great design and is very suitable for young people."

Looking at this Nokia 6150 with a candy bar and an antenna from the perspective of future generations, this sentence has a sense of design. Meng Qian didn't know how to respond.

Seeing that Meng Qian seemed a little casual, the shopping guide continued, "This phone can store 150 text messages, and the standby time ranges from 55 hours to 260."

Although the battery life of non-smart phones is very strong, but the function is much worse, it cannot be compared horizontally in this way. Meng Qian didn't pay much attention to the introduction of the shopping guide. He pretended to listen carefully for a while, and then ordered this phone. Anyway, in this age My mobile phone can't pick out any flowers.

After picking out a mobile phone, it’s time to rent a house and buy a computer. I can’t always go to Internet cafes, which is very troublesome, and it doesn’t feel good to leave my computer at school, so Meng Qian needs to rent a house.

I found a community not far from the school and planned to rent a one-bedroom, one-living room. The price was only 350 yuan, which made Meng Qian lament the changes of the times again.

So I simply learned about the current housing prices, and only then did I know that the current housing prices in areas like Wensan Road are generally only more than 2,000, while Meng Qian’s later generations live in Pinghai Apartment, a community that can directly see the West Lake, and now it is only 4,700 In 2019, the average price of an apartment in Pinghai was close to 70,000 yuan, and the average price of a good apartment with a good floor has exceeded 100,000 a square meter.

Meng Qian calculated that the house was really cheap at the moment, but he had no choice but to rent a house near the school because he could not afford to buy a house for the time being because he only had Ali as his benefactor.

As for why I chose this house, the main reason is that there is a telephone available. In this day and age, you must have a telephone if you want to surf the Internet, saving Meng Qian from having to open the telephone himself.

After finishing the house, Meng Qian looked at the time and went to the three row computer stores not far from the school.

A few days ago, Meng Qian had already learned that the mainstream brand of Huaxia Computer is now Lenovo, and Tsinghua Tongfang and Great Wall are making efforts. As for the most popular foreign brand in China, IBM should be the most popular.

But Meng Qian didn't plan to buy a brand, but planned to assemble a computer.

"What does the handsome guy want to buy?" He found a random computer store and went in. The young boss greeted Meng Qian warmly.

Meng Qian glanced at the somewhat messy computer store, then said, "I want to get a computer."

The boss looked at Meng Qian subconsciously. After all, those who can afford a computer these days are people with some family background. Looking at Meng Qian's clothes that are still patched, it is inevitable that he will be heartbroken, but when he opens the door to do business, he always greets him with a smile. , "What do you need for the handsome guy? Is he mainly buying it to play games? We have a few recommended configurations here, why don't you take a look first?"

"Thank you, let me match it." Meng Qian took out a piece of paper from his pocket.

The boss took it and muttered, "Pentium 3 processor, Kingston 128M memory, Seagate 40G disk, TNT graphics card, Gigabyte GA-6VEM motherboard, Acer 17-inch LCD screen, PCI3D sound card, Hussar speakers, IBM mechanical keyboard."

"Brother is an expert." The boss praised him, and then said seriously, "But according to your configuration, at least twenty or thirty thousand."

"It's okay, the main reason is that I'm in a hurry, whether I can get it out today."

"As long as the money is in place, the customer is God, and the moon will be taken off for you." The boss smiled and motioned Meng Qian to sit down for a while.

This configuration was really high in 2000, but Meng Qian can’t save money. After all, he is a person who relies on computers for food. The development of games will definitely start gradually in the near future. There is no reason to save money on computers. .

What's more, Meng Qian is a man and a technical geek. A man's pursuit of equipment is like a woman's pursuit of cosmetics. Many times, what men want is the pleasure brought by equipment, not that they must maximize the performance of equipment. mechanism.

Even if you spend 100,000 yuan to buy a water-cooled code, you just feel that the code is cool, and this is what you want!

After waiting for a while, the boss came out and told Meng Qian that it would take about three hours and some things had to be adjusted from the outside. Meng Qian paid the deposit and took advantage of this time to open an online account.

After all, it was the era when China Mobile Group was not yet established.

It is precisely because of his understanding and feelings in the recent period that Meng Qian suddenly felt that everything in 2000 really seemed to indicate that China would become a superpower in the 21st century. It is a pity that China suffered too much unfair treatment in the previous life. In this life, I want to make the road to revival go smoother.

In the evening, the owner of the computer shop helped Meng Qian move the computer home and gave him a computer desk.

In the end, after bargaining and some accessories, it cost a total of 30,000 yuan.

Sitting in front of this "luxury accessory", Meng Qian rubbed his hands and pressed the power button. At this time, there was no XP system, and the win98 system was used, which young people in later generations had never experienced.

The overall sense of operation of the computer is actually relatively smooth, as for the speed of the network, let alone.

Meng Qian went to download QQ first. At this time, QQ2000 has not yet been released, and QQ is still called QICQ. The registration interface of QICQ is square, full of the retro atmosphere that this era should have.

He registered an account casually, and when the registration was successful, Meng Qian realized something.

At this time, the QQ numbers are six digits, and the numbers are also random. There is no limit to account registration. If you use a 6-digit QQ number now, you will be a lot of money in the future.

Meng Qian found that in the process of rebirth, he can always find some surprises. He really finds the matter of rebirth more and more interesting
