Chapter 959 I'm Face Blind

"Hello, my name is Nanyi, Daqiang, do you study computer?"

"Hello, Mr. Nan, I'm from the Department of Sociology, University of Malaya." Liu Daqiang said cautiously.

"Oh, computers teach themselves?"

"Yes."

"Can you program?"

"I know C language and Basic."

"Since you know how to program, I'll give you a small job. I'm going to install a software on the computer in the store. No matter what software the customer installs or what files are stored on the computer, after the computer restarts, the computer will be Restore the previous pure state, except for two games, there is no other superfluous things.

Of course, I will need to install other software in the computer in the future, so the software to be edited needs to be able to repeatedly add and delete files that need to be protected. Do you understand me when I say this? "

"Master Nan, this software is not difficult to write. Give me a month, and I will definitely be able to write it well." Liu Daqiang agreed wholeheartedly.

"Oh?" Nan Yi asked: "Tell me about your thinking, such as how to ensure that the software you write will not be deleted by others?"

"Well……"

Liu Daqiang was stunned by Nanyi's question, and he couldn't say anything at all for a while.

"It's okay, think about it carefully, let's talk about it after you think it through." Nanyi patted Liu Daqiang's arm and comforted him.

One question made Nanyi figure out that Liu Daqiang's programming level is not much higher than his half-baked level. Liu Daqiang is definitely not good enough to write the "reduction software" he wants.

Nanyi passed Liu Daqiang, pushed Huang San'er into the store, leaving Liu Daqiang there to regret his mistakes.

Walking around in the store, Nanyi saw that every computer had a floppy drive, so he said to Huang San'er: "Tonight, don't let anyone in after nine o'clock. I'll come to remove the floppy drive at ten o'clock. You don't need to use it every day." I have all the computers, five of them are enough to keep, and the dismantled floppy drives can be sold in Zhongguancun.”

Huang San'er pointed to the floppy disk opening on the main computer, "Master Nan, you mean to disassemble the things here?"

"Um."

"No, I see that many students are carrying some kind of disk to insert here. If you disassemble it, they can't use it."

Nanyi pondered for a while, "Then keep ten computers. The ones with floppy disks are easy to mess around, and the computers are easy to break. You just said that the business is good. I plan to wait and see. If the business continues to be good, I will buy a few more cheap computers. Set up a diskless workstation to reduce costs."

"What do you mean by diskless workstation?"

"Hehe, this thing is too professional. Not everyone who works on computers in Zhongguancun understands it, so don't ask."

"Master Nan, you don't study computers, how do you understand?"

"Edison and Einstein have to call me a genius after they are alive. Why do you think I can't understand?"

"Master Nan, you can go to the bridge to sell your mouth."

"Your uncle, check the account."

Nan Yi can only brag in front of Huang San'er. If someone else really understands it, he won't dare to brag. He can say four, five, six at the diskless workstation, but he only stays at understanding the principle and letting him do it. Can catch blind.

By the way, Feilong Internet Cafe already has a turnover of 175,000 yuan. It cost 240,000 yuan to buy a computer, and it cost 18,000 yuan to buy tables, chairs, benches and shop. The house is a state-owned unit, and the rent is one month. 800, and 9600 after paying for one year. If the turnover can continue to maintain the status quo, the cost will be recovered in less than a month.

But it shouldn't be easy. Nanyi sees that there are only three customers left in the store, and the other machines are already empty. Once the students are on vacation, the business will definitely drop a lot. Just now, Huang San'er was just talking positively.

After closing the ledger, Nan Yi said to Huang San'er: "Tomorrow I will send you 140,000, which will be half of your shares."

"become."

Huang San'er answered very simply, and didn't bother about the extra thousand yuan that Nanyi gave.

Nanyi explained to Huang San'er that Tang Laidi and Wu Xiaoxiong were coming over, and then went back to his mother-in-law's place to wait for dinner.

That night, Nanyi removed ten floppy drives from the computer, and when they got them to Zhongguancun the next day, they couldn’t get back 20 network cards. In a fit of anger, they replaced them with money, and spent money on network cables and 10M Ethernet switches. I bought a junk computer for 5,000 yuan from a second-hand computer shop.

Computers these days are expensive, and a piece of junk costs half a thousand.

In the evening, Nanyi connected the computers of Feilong Internet Cafe to the local area network. Internet cafes that can access the Internet have appeared in foreign countries. Two years ago, game companies began to set their sights on LAN online games. The emergence of online games with good performance, Nanyi group LAN is for waiting for online games, and for installing billing software.

It is too troublesome to take a notebook to record the boarding and disembarkation time, and with the billing software, you can directly transition from paying first and then paying to paying the deposit first, so that you can avoid the embarrassment of customers who do not have enough money to pay the bill when they are overtime, and also allow customers Dedicate yourself to entertainment, don't worry about it all the time, and keep your eyes on the time in the lower right corner from time to time.

In his previous life, Nanyi met an elementary school student in an Internet cafe with breakfast money and only one or two dollars in his pocket. When playing games, he had to keep one eye on the time and the other eye on the gate of the Internet cafe from time to time for fear of timeout. , I am also afraid that the adults I am familiar with will appear suddenly.

Assuming the role of a primary school student, Nan Yi is probably both exciting and uneasy, and that feeling must be uncomfortable.

Moreover, bill evasion will happen sooner or later, and using billing software can also reduce the expected losses. In addition, Nanyi also has the idea of ​​selling a few copies of billing software to make a little money.

When Feilong Internet Cafe becomes popular, followers will definitely appear. Nanyi will tell Huang San’er that if someone comes to learn Buddhist scriptures, he must not hide his secrets and teach others all the knowledge—you must buy a Huayi brand computer, and you must buy it. To set up a local area network, you must use the Yizai billing software.

If no one came to ask, Nanyi would publish a soft article on the computer newspaper to actively spread knowledge. For those who come to learn Buddhist scriptures from other places, they also provide a free pick-up service from the train station to the store. When they come, they will be served with good tea and cigarettes.

Regardless of computers, switches or software, as long as someone buys it, Nanyi can share the benefits.

Compared with restoration software, the difficulty of developing billing software is not worth mentioning. Nanyi can write it in three days without getting started, but he has no plan to do it himself.

On the twelfth day of the twelfth lunar month, taking advantage of the lack of business in the store, I pulled an outlet to the door of the store, plugged in the induction cooker, put ten catties of sheep scorpions, five catties of lamb rolls, two bags of mother's good dumplings, and five people in the store together Boil mutton and eat dumplings.

Picking up a piece of sheep scorpion into his own bowl, Nanyi waved his chopsticks, and said in his mouth, "Don't be restrained, just eat freely, Laidi, eat big, look at how skinny you are."

Nanyi has not seen nutritional deficiencies for several years, but he did not expect to see them again in Tang Laidi. Although he is not as thin as Liu Zhen, no matter in his complexion, skin, or hands, it can be seen that he was hungry when he was a child. No trace of anything good had been eaten.

Born in a poor family that favored sons over daughters, and she was the fourth eldest, one can imagine how much Tang Laidi had to suffer to be admitted to Beijing University, and she reasoned deeply that at least one of her three older sisters was very great. Without the sacrifice of her older sister, Tang Laidi would not There is no chance of reading.

Nanyi has already figured out in his mind what kind of inhuman life Tang Xdi lived at the buyer's (in-law's) place. They really fucked up their parents. If they can't support them, don't have them. Two sons, the husband and wife are exhausted to death. If he wanted to marry them a wife, he would still have a few daughters, especially the most promising Tang Laidi.

After a while, Nanyi saw that Liu Daqiang and Wu Xiaoxiong had let go, and Tang Laidi was still a little reserved, so he persuaded him again, and after two invitations, Tang Laidi finally let go.

Let go of everything, and the speed of eating became faster. After a while, the lamb scorpion was cleaned up, and then the mutton roll was rinsed, and when the dumplings were floating in the country, Nanyi said again, "Daqiang, your accent is from northern Jiangsu, right? "

"I'm from Suyu."

"Oh, it's a good place. Suyu has produced many famous people. You studied sociology at University of Martial Arts. Are you aiming at politics?"

Liu Daqiang was stunned for a while, and said: "I thought so before the college entrance examination. My high school class teacher once told us that if one of you can become a mayor, you can lead more people to live a good life.

Just because of what the teacher in charge said, I chose University of Martial Arts as my first choice. When choosing a major, I thought that sociology would be helpful to become an official in the future, so I chose this major. Now my thinking has changed, I want to be a businessman more than an official. "

"Why?"

Liu Daqiang's face became gloomy, and he hesitated for a while before saying: "Compared with my classmates, I started too late."

Seeing Liu Daqiang's expression, and hearing his somewhat ambiguous answer against his will, Nan Yi quickly changed the topic, "Why do you learn programming, is it to make money?"

"Yes, and no. When I was a sophomore, I heard from my senior brother that it was difficult to find a job as a sociology major. It is better to study a second major. I thought that computers should have a good future, so I learned programming."

Nan Yi nodded, then looked at Tang Laidi and Wu Xiaoxiong, "What about you two, why are you learning computers?"

Wu Xiaoxiong said: "The high school teacher said that computer is a popular high-tech major, and the unit will rush to ask for it after graduation."

"Laidi, what about you?"

"The teacher helped me choose it. She told me that newspapers often read news that the country attaches importance to computer education."

Most of the parents of students in mountain villages in poverty-stricken areas are not educated and do not know the outside world. Don’t expect them to give constructive suggestions for their children’s choice of major. I just want to copy other people's footprints to my own children.

There is a powerful relative in Rare's family who can provide advice. In their world, the easiest person to find, the most reliable, and the most suitable person to ask is the child's teacher. Therefore, behind the rural college students who jumped out of the farm in the 1980s and 1990s, most of them had a good teacher, and this good teacher played an important role in the life of the students.

"Haha, the three of you are good students, otherwise your teacher would suggest that you take the normal exam."

In 1989, the university began to pay tuition fees, which were not much. It was only a symbolic 200 yuan for one academic year, but with living expenses, tuition and miscellaneous fees, the annual savings would be about 600 yuan. This is a big deal for families in mountainous areas. Astronomical numbers, if there is a college student in a family, there will definitely be a famine in the family, and it is not uncommon to borrow money all over the village.

Therefore, the normal university, which is still free, has become the first choice of many poor students.

After Nanyi laughed, he continued: "The three of you can all be regarded as learning computers. I just set up a local area network in the store the day before yesterday and prepared a billing software. You have also seen that there is an extra second-hand computer in the store. , I plan to use this computer as a host to control other computers.

The billing software is going to implement three functions, one is billing and timing. For example, a customer comes and gives a deposit of 50 yuan, and enters the computer number and amount into the software. After the calculation, it is calculated that it can play for 200 minutes, and then the countdown starts immediately. .

The second function is the reminder and automatic shutdown function. When the guest plays for the 195th minute, a pop-up window will appear on the top of the screen on the computer he is playing, reminding him that his balance will be gone in 5 minutes. Please renew in time.

If the guest does not renew the fee, then the waiting time reaches 200 minutes, a pop-up window will appear again, and the computer will automatically shut down after one minute.

The third function is the screen lock function. If the guest has not registered at the counter, he will see a protective screen that requires a password to be entered directly when the guest turns on the computer. The guest must pay a deposit at the counter to play.

Of course, there are many college students here, and there will be computer experts among them. It is not difficult to crack a lock screen password. This is also the reason why I have to remove some floppy drives. Without a floppy drive, you cannot insert a floppy disk, which can stop some mediocre hands from giving up the idea of ​​​​cracking.

But this is not enough. I hope that as soon as the computer is turned on, it will send a verification string to the host, and send different strings in different states, and this string cannot be a simple 1 or 0. Random characters must be automatically generated and put Now the time is added to the confusion, and then the Md5 algorithm is used for encryption. Once the sent string is wrong, the host will alarm.

All three of you are wondering if you can write this software. If you can write this software, I will give this software to you three to write it. You think about it now, and if you are sure you can write it, we will talk about the reward. "

After Nan Yi finished speaking, he took out a dumpling from the pot, and said to Huang San'er while eating, "Is bowling popular now?"

"It's so popular now that people like to go to bowling alleys, taking pictures of their wives and discussing business. Master Nan, I'm a little jealous. I was thinking about opening one too a few days ago."

"Is there anyone reliable?"

Huang San'er's expression straightened, and he said, "The glasses and face melon are still following me."

"Spread out, go to the bowling alley for a month, find out how many people go to play every day, who goes to play, how much water can be made in a day, and check the shelves every few days on average. Is this business possible? Do it, we will find out when the investigation is clear."

"Okay, I'll arrange someone tomorrow."

"Well, the glasses and the two of them are still messing around?"

"Help me run errands, and I will give each of them a thousand and eight hundred a month."

"Can't save money?"

"I can't save it, so I have the money to make it hard."

Nan Yi smacked his mouth, "We still need to make a living, and we are not too young, so we need to buy some property and marry a wife."

"There is no shortage of fruit around the two of them."

"Guo'er will only fool around with them when she is young and ignorant. After two years, the family will urge her to get married. Why don't she find another honest man, Mr. Qian, to marry? The dog bites the urine bubble and is empty-handed. After another two years of fooling around, I think It is difficult to find the right ones in the local area. They can only come from other places and want to stay in the country girls in the city.

Taking advantage of the fact that people still don’t understand that life in the alleys of the capital is not going to be easy, even those who are deceived will tear up the evidence first, and when people wake up, it will be too late, the stomach will grow, and there will be a small quarrel every day, and a big quarrel every three days , Life is boring.

You, don't think that paying thousands of dollars a month is enough to be worthy of them. You give it in vain, and they in vain. When it arrives, there is not even a hair left. If Baoling can do it this time, think about it them. "

Huang San'er took a sip of wine, thought for a while and said, "Shall I order some for them?"

"You figure it out for yourself."

As Nanyi said, his eyes looked in one direction. Liu Zhen was walking towards him with a lunch box in his hand. Seeing this, Nanyi greeted him, "Why are you here?"

Liu Zhen handed the lunch box in her hand to Nan Yi, and scolded, "I'll bring you something to eat, I said you too, why did you think of opening such a store?"

Nanyi took the lunch box and put it on the folding table, "I use this as a place to play, just to make myself happy."

"Your, son's, how many computers are there in the house, are they not enough for you to play with?"

"There is no atmosphere here at home, it's cold, you go back first, and I will go back in a while." Nan Yi raised his hand to straighten Liu Zhen's scarf.

"You let me stay here for a while, it's boring to be alone at home."

"Sure, sit down and have a drink too." Nanyi came to the table with Liu Zhen in his arms, and gave her his seat, and asked Huang San'er to enter the store to get another stool. After he sat down, he poured it for Liu Zhen. Order wine, "Little Er, can you get used to it?"

"Didn't I drink with you at home?"

"That was before you went to work. Later on at home you only drank red ones. I thought it was impossible for you to drink so many times at a dinner party outside. I'm afraid you'll be tricky." Nanyi picked up the cup and touched Liu Zhen .

Liu Zhen picked up the cup and took a sip from her mouth, "I'm not so hypocritical, please introduce me."

"This is Liu Daqiang, she is Tang Laidi, and that is Wu Xiaoxiong." Nan Yi introduced the three of them to Liu Zhen, then pointed to Liu Zhen, "This is my wife Liu Zhen, who works in a bank."

After everyone greeted each other, Nanyi and Liu Zhen continued to whisper.

After a while, Nan Yi saw that Liu Daqiang was hesitant to speak, so he ended the private conversation between husband and wife and said to him, "Have you made up your mind?"

"If you think about it, we can develop the billing software."

"Since you can write it, I will leave it to you to write this software. Considering the difficulty and man-hours of development, I think 50,000 yuan is a reasonable price. What do you think?"

The price given by Nanyi is neither high nor low. At this node in 1995, the number of programmers who can develop software in China is not large, and the demand is not much. However, computers are still very high-end objects in the eyes of ordinary people, just like the computer room in the school. , Before entering, it must be dust-proof and anti-static. Computers are out of reach of ordinary people. If you can tinker with computers, you will naturally be highly regarded by others.

Therefore, ordinary workers earn tens of tens of dollars, and programmers earn in tens of thousands.

"50,000?" Liu Daqiang exclaimed.

The surprised expressions on the faces of Tang Laidi and Wu Xiaoxiong were even more exaggerated.

"not enough?"

"A lot, a lot." Liu Daqiang said repeatedly.

Nanyi looked at the other two, and got a "quite a lot" in response, and then continued: "Okay, let's talk about the price, let's talk about the payment method. Tomorrow, I will sign a development contract with the three of you. After finishing the contract, I will pay you a 10% deposit, which is up to you.

For the latter 60%, a development schedule is set in the contract, what stage is the completion, and which stage is the payment; after the software is completed, it will run in the store for a month, and if there are any bugs, you will be responsible for modifying them. After one month, the software will be no big deal Question, I will pay you the balance.

If there is any problem with the software in the future, if I find you again, I will give you a maintenance fee, or we will sign a maintenance contract before, and I will pay you annually.

This is a very normal software development process, which is almost the case abroad. "

Nan Yi smiled slightly at the three of them, and continued: "Next, let me talk about something unusual. The billing software you are going to develop, I plan to treat it as a commodity and sell it to the outside world in the future, which means it is a business. , and in this business, software can also be said to be technology accounting for 30% of the shares.

At present, the value of these 30% shares is 50,000 yuan. For you, you can choose not to pay, but to ask for shares, and bet that this software will sell well in the future. Of course, you can also choose to want a part of the money and a part of the shares, or just the money but not the shares, it is up to you to decide.

In addition, the three of you negotiate on how to divide the money or shares. I only talk to you as a whole, and I treat you as a team.

Oh, and, I know that none of you have computers, you can use the computers in the store in your spare time, which is one of the investments of my 70% shares. "

After Nanyi finished speaking, he suddenly felt that he was quite boring. The Feilong Internet Cafe was opened for his own entertainment, but now it has the tendency to become a tool for making money. The pursuit of profit seems to have been engraved in his bones.

"Master Nan, can this software be sold outside?" Liu Daqiang asked after thinking for a while.

"Daqiang, you are the first to come to the store. How is the business in the store? You should know that the investment of less than 300,000 yuan has now earned back more than 170,000 yuan. The cost will be recovered in less than four months. The cost of parts and repairs are all counted, and the profit is not bad. Such a good business, someone will definitely learn to do it.

I plan to take down the front door next door and open a store dedicated to serving the boss who is going to do our business. I will help with computers, help set up a local area network, and sell software by the way. The 30% shares I said are the entire store. Shares, not just software. "

Liu Daqiang's eyes lit up, "Master Nan, it's a waste to just do this, we can also sell some floppy disks, copy paper and so on."

Nan Yi nodded, "It can be considered. Before the store opens, go to Zhongguancun to find some good things to sell in the store. Okay, this is not urgent, we can talk later, you guys think about the contract first I can't figure it out today, I'll think about it tomorrow, we can sign the contract later.

Laidi, don't stand still, eat some more dumplings, the skin will be torn, eat it quickly, don't waste it. "

Nanyi waved his chopsticks again, beckoning everyone to eat.

...

After we left, Nan Yi and Liu Zhen walked home.

"Do you like that Tang Laidi?"

"Somewhat."

"Because of my shadow?"

"You're thinking too much. I just think Tang Laidi has the quality of perseverance. As long as she has a ladder, it's hard to say how high she can climb."

"Nanyi, I found out that you have a preference for women. Why don't you mention Liu Daqiang and Wu Xiaoxiong? I think Liu Daqiang is good, and he will definitely be better than the other two in the future."

"You have a good vision. Liu Daqiang has the qualities that a successful businessman should possess, and he should be able to succeed in the future."

Liu Zhen smiled and said: "So, you think he can't catch him, that's why he cares more about that Tang Laidi?"

"Now it's not like before. The career is on the right track. It's not like grabbing a potential talent and going to the family. It's best to get along with each other. If you don't get along, don't force it. Just get along like this, without scheming."

"No, you were calculating against me back then."

"Come on, I'm at a loss with you." Nan Yi put his arms around Liu Zhen, "You can't stamp it, I'll accompany you to the street tomorrow, and engrave a new one at the place where the seal is carved by the roadside."

"I won't engrave it, and I will cover yours if I have a letter in the future. Speaking of letters, I haven't received your letter for a long time. Where's your pen pal? Don't you write?"

"I don't know what happened, but the communication was cut off naturally. What about yours, wouldn't all three of them be cut off?"

"No, I still keep in touch, but not as frequently as before. Now, I write a letter every half a year. Everyone is busy with work and life. Let me tell you, a pen pal of mine got divorced and just left."

"Could it be that you got divorced because of your correspondence, did you write something nasty?"

"I'm sick." Liu Zhen glanced at Nanyi and said, "Female."

"Girl, are you pretty? If you're pretty, send me over to comfort her, and I'll definitely iron her comfortingly... Ouch, don't do it."

"It's not enough to have a few outside, and you're thinking about the people around me?"

"A pen pal, why is there someone around me?"

"No and no."

"Okay, don't worry about it anymore, let go." Nanyi broke Liu Zhen's hand that was pinching the soft flesh around his waist, "We haven't spent the night outside, why don't we be presumptuous once today, and I'll take you to the all-night video hall go?"

"You're really sick. It's winter, so you're not afraid of freezing?" Liu Zhen complained while her heart moved.

"It's okay, go home and wear some thick clothes, and bring your marriage certificate, so as not to be unclear in the security inspection, and Lei Zi will arrest us as prostitutes again."

"Come on, I was really arrested. The police notified the leader of the work unit. I lost all face."

"Haha, I didn't think about it, forget it, we will go to the cinema to watch a movie during the day tomorrow, and there are fewer people going to the movie theater now, just like booking a movie."

"It's better to watch videotapes at home if you really want to book the venue, and watch whatever you want."

"Look at the atmosphere. The current hall is outdated, and it will be changed to a small hall in a short time. If you want to see the hall in the future, you may not have the opportunity to see one less."

"Then take a look."

The two of Nanyi were chatting, and just as they walked back to the courtyard of the old bungalow, snow began to fall in mid-air, falling lightly, not panicking at all, just walking in the courtyard.

Liu Zhen looked up for a while, and eagerly said, "Change your clothes and go for a walk. I want to try walking in the snow."

"What do you want, "Annual Rings" or "Snow Mountain Flying Fox"?"

"Bring an umbrella."

"Understood, I'm going to comb my hair back."

When the two returned to the house, Nan Yi first went upstairs to the bathroom to comb his back hair, then went downstairs to the bedroom downstairs, put on the windbreaker suit that Liu Zhen had already found and put on the bed, put on his suit and tie, He put on another white scarf, and when he was ready, Nan Yi helped Liu Zhen, who was sitting in front of the dressing table, braid her braids.

After a while, the two changed their clothes. Nanyi held an umbrella and covered their heads. The two walked slowly along South Street towards the city.

Along the way, Nanyi hummed to himself the BGM, "Wandering, wandering, the river will never stop for thousands of miles..."
