Reboot 2003

Chapter 253 032: Encounter at the station (two in one)

After a few operations, the two little girls were easily settled by our boss Chen... Although the operational factors were limited, in short, a small problem that seemed a bit dangerous was avoided. At this time, Chen Qin was in a good mood.

However, when he was about to go to dinner, Chen Qin went home and met Uncle Xu next door. He hadn't seen him for a year. Uncle Xu was wearing an ordinary woolen sweater and jeans, but he was not as professional as Chen Qin, who always wore a suit.

After meeting, he looked at Chen Qin seriously, and for some reason he looked at Chen Qin's face seriously.

Although the conversation afterwards was quite pleasant, Lao Xu asked him how his studies were going and how was your studio. He had grown a lot taller recently.

However, Uncle Xu saw the gift box in his hand and seemed to be curious - "Lingling heard that you eat vegetables every day recently, so I brought a lot of them from Lin'an for you and put them in your house... I thought she would be the only one who grew up." I’m giving McNuggets to people during the Chinese New Year.”

Chen Qin turned around and saw a bag full of bags on his bedroom table... What could he say, he could only pretend to be confused; he thought that Xu Lingling had already seen the contents of the box, but she probably didn't find anything.

The next day, when Chen Qin went to the studio, Song Ziyun and Guo Yang were very happy to hear that A Yue was back.

When Chen Qin arrived, they were already doing research - Guo Yang curiously asked what a serious game studio in Kuaikan Media looked like, while Song Ziyun insisted on dragging A Yue to show him the new version of "Three Kingdoms Online" A small game, I said that the card interface of this game is very beautiful, I have to suggest to A Yue that we can also copy one...

Of course, there is no need to worry about these things, but Ah Yue was in a good mood today. She was chatting with the two about her experiences of this trip to Lin'an. When she saw Chen Qin coming in, she seemed to suddenly become happy, covering her mouth and laughing.

Her smile was a bit exaggerated, which was different from her usual calm and decent style. Song Ziyun and Guo Yang had been dissatisfied with this for a long time, and took the initiative to ridicule her: "Why are you laughing suddenly? Isn't there just Chen Qin, che~"

A Yue was a little embarrassed and quickly explained: "No, I just suddenly remembered something interesting."

She said: "Actually, yesterday, when I came back, I went to Chen Qin's house to deliver something..."

"what to give?"

"It doesn't matter what I gave you. What's important is that when I went to Chen Qin's house, there were relatives visiting his house, and he stayed downstairs alone..."

"Oh...and then what?"

"Then..." Ah Yue laughed again, "Wait a minute, that thing is really funny."

Fortunately, she laughed for a long time and finally said: "At that time, I saw a woman's lip mark on Chen Qin's neck. Although it was very shallow, I could see it clearly at that time."

Chen Qin was originally not interested in the fuss made by such a little girl, but after hearing this, he and the other two boys took a deep breath.

Song Ziyun and Guo Yang came up and pressed him down to check his neck, but that was already yesterday. After washing their faces, nothing was found, so they found nothing.

A Yue also quickly smoothed things over: "That must be Chen Qin's elder or something. I was kissed like that by my aunt during the Chinese New Year. Her lipstick was much redder than Chen Qin's! I just feel that Chen Qin was so tormented like that. Laughing, it’s obviously Chinese New Year, but he’s staying downstairs alone with a lipstick mark on his face, hahahaha…”

As she spoke, she started laughing again. Song Ziyun and Guo Yang laughed together sadly, looking at her and Chen Qin strangely...

What could Chen Qin say? He was a little confused as to why Ah Yue didn't say anything at the time... But even though he brought it up later, Ah Yue took the initiative to help him smooth things over, and he never touched on this seemingly strange topic again.

After that, the days became more pleasant - Xu Lingling arrived late. In addition to visiting relatives locally, it seemed that Lao Xu had to go to Lin'an again, but she could stay until school started, and she could still spend a week in Longshan.

After Ah Yue came back from Lin'an, she immediately talked with three classmates about how to play the next game. Although Chen Qin suggested that she take the formal route, she didn't seem to be in a hurry. She was just making an ordinary flash game. The game is only being updated in the later stage, so there is really no need to rush to make big changes...

It’s just that happy days are always short-lived, and the holidays are gradually coming to an end.

After the Spring Festival, the adults went back to work early.

I heard that the operating conditions of Kuaikan are not bad recently, and the new SNS 'Yahoo Relationship' and "Three Kingdoms Generals" are being launched one after another. However, Chen Qin is a little busy recently and has no time to understand those messy things - A Yue is busy and stressed. After setting up the game's action system, Xu Lingling wanted to play more while she was back.

Chen Qin was distracted by two things and was so busy that he naturally had no time to care about unimportant things.

On this day, Chen Qin and Xu Lingling went shopping early in the morning. The weather was not very good and the temperature was still very low.

In the barbecue restaurant, Xu Lingling talked about Lao Xu's recent work.

"Last year, he went to California every day to discuss business and sell his servers to Melician's company." Xu Lingling didn't remember the specific name and said, "The thing he was trying to sell seemed to be called 'development tools' or something..."

"It's a developer kit," Chen Qin corrected. "It mainly provides developers with private network disks and rents temporary test environments..."

"Yeah, that's right," Xu Lingling said, "The Facebook company ordered some, and an investor who was very familiar with him also recommended some to the company he invested in. But other customers were not very interested, Dad said, Or are there more people renting servers for ordinary people..."

"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, most software developers don't have money, and they won't need these things after the product is launched." Chen Qin explained, "And PC development actually doesn't need to pay attention to the development environment. When multiple platforms emerge in the future, After that, this set of things will be able to sell better.”

After all, they are childhood sweethearts who grew up, so it is not too out of the ordinary to talk about such things; of course, Xu Lingling was not just chatting. After a while, the barbecue was ready. Xu Lingling handed Chen Qin a bunch of sizzling chicken wings and tried to test them. He said to him sexually: "Dad went to Lin'an to discuss business in the past two days. It seems that he wanted to provide servers to a group company, but the price was asked to be much cheaper..."

Chen Qin took the chicken wings and explained to her casually: "After all, we are one of our own, so the fees should be cheaper, and the price is not irreversible. When the audit is conducted at the end of the year, it can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual situation."

Xu Lingling nodded, observed Chen Qin's expression, and said carefully: "At the beginning of the year, my father was still scolding people at home, saying that the company was investing everywhere now and couldn't keep up with the manpower. His cloud service was doing well, and he had to ask for something. A hammer and a stick, etc., and he also transferred a data security engineer he discovered from the team..."

"This..." Chen Qing just took a bite of the chicken wings and felt a little embarrassed. He thought about it carefully before replying, "In the beginning, Mr. Li temporarily transferred manpower, so he followed the authority in a hurry, but it will not be like this in the future."

Xu Lingling suggested: "Then do you want me to tell dad about it?"

"No need, he knows the stakes. This cloud service is not purely for making money. Eat it quickly!"

Chen Qin pushed the plate and stopped discussing the issue.

But a moment later, while walking in the park, Xu Lingling talked about her own recent affairs.

"Have you listened to that song? Actually, I feel like I'm not very good at singing it. Sister Yao also said that she's not good at that kind of voice, but I didn't expect that many people like it."

She was talking about the recently popular song "Beautiful Things". This song was popular in the original timeline, but it was called "Who Did You Give Your Love to" at the time. Although this literary version written by Li Jian is not very grounded Angry, but still popular anyway.

So Chen Qin said: "I feel pretty good. After all, music is a content industry. Although opportunists like us can make a lot of money, excellent works will always shine."

Xu Lingling seemed very happy to be praised: "Anyway, this time it became so popular for no reason. Sister Yao is very busy recently. She is preparing to add this song to the concert and prepare for the Spring Festival Gala..."

He also said: "By the way, the clothes I came here two days ago were the performance clothes ordered by Sister Yao. She even asked me to go to the concert, but I didn't dare to go."

Chen Qin didn't care and comforted her: "Many people stop being active once a song becomes popular. Some people don't make as much as you. Besides, you are still young. If you don't want to go, just go."

Xu Lingling began to think deeply. As she walked, she looked at the small pavilion opposite the park and said softly: "But I still remember, that's not what you said that day."

"What day?" "Only the day when I graduate from elementary school."

Chen Qin became angry when he heard this and stopped to teach her: "I don't even want to talk about you. Who taught you to talk like that at such a young age?"

Xu Lingling said quickly: "I know I was wrong. I was so angry at that time. Who cares..."

But she added: "But at that time, I felt that we had all graduated from elementary school... and many people liked the songs I sang, and you were also considered your rich man. Many adults couldn't compare to us, so that's why I felt that way. of."

Chen Qin taught her: "Of course that's not enough. Although graduating from elementary school is better than before, it is definitely not an adult..."

Xu Lingling looked into the distance: "Yes, that's why you gave me an example back then, saying that graduating from elementary school is not enough. You have to be like Teacher Xiao Meng, join the work after graduation and play a role in social production, then you can be considered a real adult... "

Chen Qin didn't understand what she wanted to say for a while: "I was just giving an example..."

"I know," Xu Lingling said, "So I thought about it carefully and it seems that I don't know anything else, and now I can only sing..."

Then, she asked seriously: "Well, Chen Qin, do you think I should hold a concert with Sister Yao, go to TV programs, and then participate in more activities like that?"

Chen Qin understood what she meant.

"So we are still young now," Chen Qin sighed, "we can consider this kind of thing later."

Xu Lingling said seriously: "But you used to always want to make money, but it's different now. You just said that your business is not just about money."

Chen Qin smiled, but shook his head and said: "I know what you mean, but money is the medium through which society operates. If you want to do something meaningful, of course you can't just look at money everywhere, but there is no need. Money is hidden everywhere, but what matters is what we did.”

"But...if it's singing, I'm actually not sure what it can do." Xu Lingling said hesitantly, "There are many singers and celebrities in Xiangjiang. They come to meet my father, discuss with him the recently launched luxury goods, and go shopping every day. Golf, and still entangled in some boring scandals and relationships between men and women in the media."

She asked: "Even if I want to work hard, I don't know where to start. If I want to do what they do, I can't say that I secretly dated a middle school student who was doing business in my hometown, so what should I do?" Woolen cloth?"

"Then just concentrate on learning your singing. There will always be opportunities." At this point, Chen Qin thought of something, "By the way, our company has become very close to China Mobile recently."

Xu Lingling nodded: "Our ring tones are mainly sold by China Mobile..."

"No, I'm not talking about Cailing." Chen Qin said thoughtfully, "Why don't you practice more recently? I guess there will be such an opportunity in March to April."

Xu Lingling didn't understand a little: "What are you practicing for?"

"I can't say." Chen Qin said, "But singing, in the final analysis, is about entertaining the public. Just practice what you are good at. I think you are the best at pretending to be cute. You can discuss it with your sister Yao and the seniors in the company. This, let’s make another surprise attack recently.”

Xu Lingling was used to this statement and nodded seriously.

She didn't know yet what 'opportunity' Chen Qin was talking about, but it was almost time.

When I got home, Lao Xu was already back.He asked: "Are you going out to eat?"

He added: "It's no coincidence this year. We encountered this snowstorm. We will have to wait until summer vacation when we come back next time. Maybe we can go to the Olympics together then."

Xu Lingling asked: "Isn't there a May Day holiday in Xiangjiang?"

Lao Xu said: "Yes, yes, but I will probably be very busy then."

Xu Lingling said frankly: "Okay then, let's talk about it during the summer vacation!"

As she said this, she secretly exchanged a small look with Chen Qin. After all, she was not too worried about this problem - not to mention that Chen Qin said that there would be an opportunity in March and April. The two of them usually had a lot of contact behind their parents' backs. Although this It's a bit out of line for a middle school student to be talking on the phone for a long time, but that's because there are online games.

After Lao Xu packed up his things, he still had to take the train to Lin'an. The road traffic was still unstable recently. They wanted to go to Lin'an to take a flight back to Xiangjiang.

Chen Qin accompanied them to pack their things and arrived at the train station. He waved and watched as the Xu family father and daughter disappeared into the entrance of the train station. As they were about to go home, they suddenly bumped into someone.

"You are that Xiao Chen! I always thought you looked familiar. I saw you from afar."

But a man came from the direction of the exit and noticed Chen Qin from a distance.The dark circles under his eyes were so heavy that Chen Qin almost didn't recognize him, but he finally reacted when he saw his sparse hair.

"It's Boss Zhou!" Chen Qin nodded, "Are you here again?"

Zhou Hongyi smiled: "After all, our company's ace producer is in Longshan. I remember you wrote the code for Super Smash Bros. I took a look myself and found that your front-end is quite powerful."

Isn’t the backend great?Chen Qin was a little unhappy when he heard this, and asked directly: "Why are you here in Longshan?"

"It's just to find Miss Gu. There's something going on in the company recently, so I came here by myself. Can you help me call her and ask her to come over?"

Don't you know her phone number?Chen Qin was confused: "Where can we meet?"

"Anywhere will do. I'll treat her to a meal."

Chen Qin pointed to the small teahouse on the second floor next to her: "Is it okay if I ask her to come here?"

"also."

Although it was indeed Zhou Hongyi himself, and Chen Qin had met him several times, so there was no mistaking him, but today Boss Zhou seemed a little uneasy.

Chen Qin vaguely felt something, and then went to the small teahouse. Chen Qin chatted with Zhou Hongyi, talking about their recent company affairs, and about social networks. He almost understood it soon -

"I heard that Yahoo is also releasing an SNS recently. Has our game helped?"

"He helped and performed well."

“What’s the conversion rate like?”

"It's okay, but after all, you launched it on Weibo first, so not many players will follow."

"Then I heard that the company has another game called "Three Kingdoms" or something..."

"The Legend of the Three Kingdoms, this game... is still greatly affected by the platform after all." Zhou Hongyi took a sip of tea and said depressedly, "It was launched the day before yesterday, but the current data is actually not ideal."
