Reborn in the red age

Chapter 152 The mother-in-law wants to meet her son-in-law
The only purpose of coming to school is to ask the school to help solve the problem of Chinese character library. This workload is not small. Qingfeng Li also needs to continue the research and development of his own Windows system. He really does not have the energy to invest in research on Chinese language.

Stopping Old Man Wang who had just finished class, Li Qingfeng said directly in the corridor: "Professor Wang, I plan to invest [-] yuan in the school to set up a computer system Chinese laboratory. I wonder if the school is interested?"

"One hundred thousand? U.S. dollars or RMB?" Old Man Wang responded quickly. He didn't care about the project at all. He immediately grasped the key points and asked about the currency of investment.

"Ten thousand US dollars, 9 RMB, a total of [-]"

"Done, let's go. Now follow me to find the dean."

The two quickly found the dean of the School of Computer Science, and Qingfeng Li briefly told the dean about the research projects he had invested in.

The computer Chineseization project is a research project of the school. It is natural that Li Qingfeng wants to invest in research and development to accelerate it. The dean agrees in principle, but there are differences on patents.

"Um, student Qingfeng, we have been doing research on the localization of computer systems. It is a good thing that you invest in it, but this intellectual property belongs to the school and we cannot give it to private individuals." Dean Zhao pondered for a while, but still did not cheat Qingfeng Li. The patent matter was mentioned in advance.

Regarding the current situation in the country, Li Qingfeng is naturally aware that everything belongs to the state, including the knowledge in your head. Do you still want to have a patent as a private person?What are you dreaming about?
Li Qingfeng waved his hand and said grandly: "What's the point? I don't want to patent the Chinese system when I make it. As long as the system is built and the school can authorize me to use it, that's fine."

That's good in China right now. They don't pay much attention to patents. Although they can't be given to private individuals, you can use them as you like without charging any patent fees.

"This is no problem. You can use it however you want. Just tell us in advance. Now I'll call Director Wang of the Computer Department of our school and you can discuss the specific matters." For Qingfeng Li, who doesn't care about personal gains and losses, Dean Zhao was so satisfied with his magnanimity that he immediately agreed to Qingfeng Li's investment.

Director Wang is currently the director of the Computer Research Institute of Peking University. He is responsible for the development of a precision phototypesetting system for Chinese characters, which solves the problems of display and printing of Chinese characters input into the computer. He can be said to be a contemporary Bi Sheng.

Qingfeng Li also attended Director Wang's class and could be called his teacher. Qingfeng Li briefly explained his thoughts.

Just solving the problem of Chinese localization of the computer and inputting the font into the font library is not a big problem for Director Wang and his team. It is a labor-intensive task. At present, their laser phototypesetting system has entered the stage of improvement, and the research on laser phototypesetting will be completed soon. Sufficient time is provided for localization of the computer system.

"Classmate Qingfeng, you are talking about Chinese-language computers. We can solve this problem. However, our research institute lacks equipment. Currently we only have one imported small computer. You need to give us a few more computers before we can start research." Director Wang I quickly put forward conditions and wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to get a handful of wool, even if it was to get a few more computers.

"No problem, I'll give you five sets."

"There are also various consumables and some small equipment."

"Please make a list for me. When I return to the United States, I will prepare it for you and ship it back."

Even though he knew that the other party was taking advantage of him, Qingfeng Li didn't care much. How much money could he have for consumables?Ten thousand US dollars is a huge amount. Now you can take it as you like. When I ask you to pay it back, buddy, I will take away all the people in your research institute.

After it was agreed that the Chinese system would be officially developed in December this year, Qingfeng Li did not stay long and said goodbye and left the school. The [-] funds would not be opened until the research and development officially started. All necessary equipment will be provided by Qingfeng Li and will not be included. Within R&D funds.

After returning home, I will have to work overtime to write my own Windows 1.0, trying to finish it before graduation next year. Their vocabulary should also be entered and completed during that time, and then both parties will work together to Chineseize the system.

There is no need for computer companies to be anxious. They should first solve the research and development of operating systems and wait for IBM to establish industry standards before computer companies can start implementing them.

There is no need to compete for the title of the world's first personal computer. Qingfeng Li does not have this ability. His early development is wretched. The only way to develop slowly is to follow IBM.

Back at the maintenance point, Wang Weimin stopped playing computer games and was waiting at the door for Qingfeng Li to come back.

Seeing the Passat parked at the door of the maintenance station, Wang Weimin quickly went over to help Qingfeng Li open the door and said anxiously: "Brother, how is it? Is it done?"

"What happened? Do you know what I went to do?" Li Qingfeng looked at Wang Weimin curiously and asked, stunned by Wang Weimin's words.

"Brother, I'm not stupid. I just asked you if a computer can be assembled like a TV, and then you ran out. Then you must have gone to do some computer work."

After hearing Wang Weimin's explanation, Li Qingfeng nodded, OK, this guy is not as stupid as he thought.

Qingfeng Li laughed and did not tell Wang Weimin the specific situation. At present, this matter is just an idea. The company has not even been registered in the United States. There is no point in saying it. He should wait until he graduates and returns to China next year.

Next, Qingfeng Li stopped paying attention to the computer bureau. Over there, Yu Zhengsheng contacted Qingfeng Li twice, and Qingfeng Li went to the appointment each time. But when it came to computer matters, Qingfeng Li just laughed and didn't talk about the topic.

What's the use of saying it?You don't implement it, and besides, my buddy is going to set up his own PC company, so why are you cultivating a competitor?Soon the summer vacation came in China. Li Qingfeng and Wang Weimin drove the Passat to school and picked up Hu Jiabao and Ma Wenhui. The four of them had a good two days in Sijiucheng.

After driving Ma Wenhui to the train home, Hu Jiabao sat in the passenger seat of the Passat and asked softly: "Qingfeng, when are you going home?"

"I can go back any time. There's nothing wrong with me anyway. When will you go back?" There were many people at the Sijiucheng Railway Station now. Qingfeng Li drove his Passat carefully on the street near the train station.

Glancing carefully at Qingfeng Li who was driving, Hu Jiabao pursed his lips and said nothing, looking uncertainly out of the car window.

After waiting for Hu Jiabao's reply for a long time, Li Qingfeng turned around and said with a smile: "Hey, why don't you say anything? When will you go home? I can ask the school in advance for a letter of introduction to buy a sleeper ticket."

"Um, um, I'm going back the day after tomorrow."

"The day after tomorrow, time is really tight. I will go to the school to get the letter of introduction in the afternoon."

Hu Jiabao opened his mouth without making a sound, then leaned against the car glass and closed his mouth.

Seeing Hu Jiabao's hesitant expression, Li Qingfeng smiled and said, "What do you want to say? What's our relationship? Just say what you want to say."

"That's it, what, my mother wants to meet you"

Under Li Qingfeng's questioning, Hu Jiabao hesitated to tell the story. After saying this, he lowered his head with a red face and rubbed the corners of his clothes nervously with both hands.

Qingfeng Li thought it was something. It turned out that the mother-in-law wanted to see her son-in-law. He smiled and rubbed the girl's head: "What's the shame? My mother has already seen you. It's okay for me to go see my mother-in-law. I’m going to prepare gifts and we’ll set off the day after tomorrow.”

"Okay" Hu Jiabao nodded shyly. If it weren't for Qingfeng Li's good hearing, he could hardly hear clearly in this closed carriage.

Hu Jiabao, who offered to take his partner home, was a little embarrassed. He was too shy to talk along the way. Li Qingfeng was the only one asking the Hu family if they had any preferences.

After inquiring on the way back, Li Qingfeng found out everything about Hu Jiabao's family's preferences.

Hu Jiabao's parents are both doctors at the Workers' Hospital. He has a married brother who works as a technician in a factory, a five-year-old nephew, and a three-year-old niece.

The brother and sister-in-law are easy to get rid of. When it comes to Hu Jiabao's marriage talks, they are not family members, so they can just prepare some random gifts for them.

As for the Hu family's parents, Li Qingfeng had to think hard about how to please him. He couldn't give away the home appliances he brought back from abroad. If he delivered home appliances for the first time, with the intellectual character of the Hu family's parents, he would probably be able to make Li Qingfeng directly. After being kicked out, I can only follow the standards and deliver some cigarettes and alcohol to my door for the first time.

After thinking for a while, Qingfeng Li turned the steering wheel, turned around and headed to the bank. He took out his international student visa and exchanged some foreign exchange certificates with U.S. dollars at the bank.

They have to take a train back and forth, and Li Qingfeng doesn't want to carry all the big and small bags there. Hu Jiabao's house is next to the Magic City. She can exchange some foreign exchange coupons in Sijiucheng, and go to the Magic City Friendship Store to buy some door-to-door gifts with her visa. This is more convenient.

After settling the foreign exchange coupons, Li Qingfeng wrote two letters of introduction to the school and simply packed up his things. Wang Weimin did not have a driver's license, so he had to park his car in the school and called a tricycle to take the two of them to the train to buy tickets and get on the train.

Hu Jiabao was very nervous along the way and kept asking Qingfeng Li about his family's preferences. Seeing Hu Jiabao's nervous look, Qingfeng Li felt funny in his heart. Logically speaking, he, the new uncle who came to visit, should be nervous. Why? Hu Jiabao, the daughter of the Hu family, was even more nervous than herself.

The train traveled smoothly within the Gyeonggi Province. Not long after leaving the Gyeonggi Province, the train was forced to stop halfway.

Just when Li Qingfeng was curious about what was going on, a police officer hurried over and said, "All passengers, please sit tight in your seats, don't move around, and don't go out of the sleeper area."

Hearing the policeman's shouting, Li Qingfeng stood up and checked the situation outside through the car window.

Seeing this, Qingfeng Li frowned. We had just entered the 80s, and someone was forcing the train to stop and rob it?

　Two more today
