"Lu Zhou, look! What do you think, it's okay!" Cheng Xuyuan showed off Zhang Xiaolong's signature.
"Not good."
Lu Zhou looked at the obsessed Cheng Xuyuan speechlessly, saying that he was seriously ill.
Just after chatting with Zhang Xiaolong on the subway, Cheng Xuyuan asked Zhang Xiaolong for his autograph.
Originally, Cheng Xuyuan wanted him to sign it on his clothes for easy collection, but he happened to be wearing black clothes and his signature was not visible at all.
"Just find a piece of paper and sign it."
"That won't work. It's not easy to lose the signed clothes."
Zhang Xiaolong, "Sign on the clothes tag?"
"..."
Therefore, at this time, Cheng Xuyuan was holding the white label on his neck with his backhand, showing off his signature to Lu Zhou with a happy face.
Lu Zhou swore that this was the stupidest way of showing off that he had ever seen in his life.
"Go to Guangnan Commercial District to buy clothes later. The bicycle key is here. You will stay at my house for the next few days." Lu Zhou continued.
"Why can't I live here for a long time? It's a lot of trouble to find a house. Brother Lu will take you in."
Lu Zhou said, "It will be a lot of trouble for you to bring your girl back someday, so you don't have to use me as a gun cell. It will probably be a disaster for you to go back to the university town."
"Yeah, I say I can't win. Your cramped little house has poor sound insulation, so I really can't stand it."
"Let's take a break and eat some Northeastern side dishes."
Lu Zhou lay on the sofa, squinting his eyes and taking a nap. When he returned to the house last night, he continued to arrange the cloud computing plan.
Now that the hematopoietic function of Menggu Advertising has been demonstrated, it is promoting the promotion of the banana market and Menggu Cloud's server purchase plan.
Naturally, Lu Zhou is indispensable in this process to point out the direction for Fang Qiang and Wen Xuwei. Perhaps the execution can be safely left to the two of them, but Lu Zhou undoubtedly still has to grasp the general direction.
Cheng Xuyuan didn't bother him when he saw this, and picked up some information on the table and started reading.
Some of them are papers and documents, some are more mature projects or product plans, and some are analysis reports of existing projects.
He picked up a version analysis report about the QQ client, and a piece of paper slipped from the middle.
"Hey, little brother, do you want to give a speech?"
...
on Monday.
"Hello everyone, I am Lu Zhou. I am very happy to attend today's lecture."
Lu Zhou stood on the stage and greeted the junior students below.
"Not long ago, when Director Yuan asked me to give a speech, I refused. Frankly speaking, I, Lu Zhou, am only a year or two older than all the classmates here, so how could He Dehe come to give a speech to everyone? Until I came just now
When I arrived at the lecture hall and saw other speakers, I felt relieved."
As he spoke, he looked at the other "strong men" captured by Yuan Haizhou. Most of these speakers were entrepreneurial students from the Yixian Entrepreneurship Base.
Everyone in the audience also laughed after hearing Lu Zhou's words.
This speech was nothing more than a "show" for Yuan Haizhou to show off his achievements. As the director of the college in charge of entrepreneurship, he had been struggling for some time, so he asked the student union to plan this graduation exchange event.
In front of the stage, some leaders and teachers were sitting.
"Today, let's talk about a common topic: dreams.
In fact, for twenty-four years of my life, I have been wondering what it is.
Frankly speaking, even today when I discuss this topic with everyone on stage, I still haven't found the answer.
Before I prepared this speech, I thought about the opportunity for me to enter Yixian Computer and the Internet industry.
When I was ten years old, my father and I went to visit a relative, who happened to be a practitioner in the computer industry.
At that time, I came into contact with Huiduo.com for the first time. This is an earlier way of "online" communication than the Chinese Internet.
I think maybe the teachers in the audience may have been exposed to it before.
If you use today's words to describe "Hui Duo", then you can imagine that someone wrote a BBS forum in the DOS system with white characters on a blue background.
Maybe it seems a little "ugly" today, but as a child at the time, I was completely fascinated.
With one click, you can see the post left by another stranger. It is more fascinating than the computer itself. It comes from the joy of communication between people in the virtual world.
This was probably the opportunity. What was interesting to me was that I later learned that the webmaster of the Zhennan site at that time was Mr. Ma, who later founded Penguin.
Two months ago, I started my business in Yixian. I named my company "Dream Valley", which means that dreams begin on Guwei Island. It can be said that I have a strong obsession with this word.
Later, seven other members and I invested in product research and development and promotion.
We have to work for nearly twelve hours every day, and our daily meal problems are solved in Zhuyuan 305. Often, a few of us will gather in Zhuyuan 305 even on weekends.
The most annoying thing about Zhuyuan’s building management is us 305, who urges us to turn off the lights and close the door every day.
Later, the building management stopped coming to remind me, and the gate was turned on at twelve o'clock every night.
You also know what it feels like to suddenly lose power while writing code."
"Ha ha......"
"I can't say how much I like writing code, but sometimes when I calm down and think about it, I find that I still like computers very much.
I have to say that starting a business is a difficult process. After going through these two months, it is difficult for me to encourage others to start a business. But equally, it can also be a very happy process.
When you do it as something you love, it will be happy. I think the source of this happiness should be related to dreams. Maybe Mr. Ma who worked at Zhennan Railway Station back then should feel the same way.
Of course, since we talked about dreams, it is inevitable to talk about reality.
In the first month, we overcame many difficulties and the product was successfully launched. We thought this was considered 'reality', but it was not.
In the Internet industry, reference is a good word, and it also means three mountains. In front of the mountains, there are many hills and mountains.
ok. We encountered a hill. Oh no, I didn’t want to talk about 360 Assistant borrowing bananas.”
"Ha ha......"
"It must be admitted that they are all great companies. They allow today's entrepreneurs to see that in the gap between dreams and reality, there is a long distance between the two.
But when I turned to history, I found that when IBM dominated the PC market, Microsoft came and told us that the software era had arrived; after Microsoft dominated the desktop system, Google told us that the era of information aggregation and retrieval had arrived.
The world we live in is huge, has infinite possibilities, and can accommodate countless dreams.
Of course, I won’t give any worse examples, after all, they are more meaningful now than they were in the past.
Therefore, for me and Menggu, the mountains that lie ahead are the only way for us to grow up.
Whether it's 360, Penguin, or Thousand Degrees, after recognizing the reality, I regard it as a priest performing baptismal ceremonies. After fighting with it, I am still alive and well, so I can probably be considered an adult...
