Chapter 2 1980

It seemed as long as a century had passed. Zhang Lexing gradually became conscious. His throat was as uncomfortable as a ball of fire. He couldn't help shouting "water, water", but unfortunately his thirsty throat could only utter for a while. moan.Some cool liquid flowed in along the mouth, Zhang Lexing swallowed, and his throat seemed not as uncomfortable as it was at the beginning.Zhang Lexing slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was the white ceiling and walls, and there was a smell of disinfectant in the air.Sitting beside the bed was a middle-aged woman who was unfamiliar but felt very familiar. She was holding an enamel teacup in her hand, with a spoon handle protruding from the edge of the teacup.

"Where am I?" Zhang Lexing asked hoarsely.

"You are in the hospital now, you are fine, don't worry." The middle-aged woman replied.

"How long have I been in a coma?"

"It's been three days."

"There's nothing going on here, right?"

"What place?"

"Institute of Space Physics, I remember that the ground shook so badly that day."

"In the space room, what kind of research is that doing?" The middle-aged woman in front of her seemed confused.

"Then how did I come to the hospital?" Zhang Lexing felt very puzzled, did the institute ignore him.

"Just three days ago, the car you took was in an accident. But you were lucky. You didn't have any injuries, but you were just unconscious." The middle-aged woman asked with concern, "Do you want some more water?"

"Car accident? I clearly remember that I fainted in the laboratory. Is it strange? Really, why didn't the institute send someone?" Zhang Lexing muttered in his heart, and suddenly there was a huge pain in his head, as if a hand was rubbing Like pinching the brain.

"Ah..." Zhang Lexing couldn't help but hugged his head tightly with both hands, a burst of dizziness hit him, and he passed out again.Before he lost consciousness, he vaguely heard someone calling for a doctor.

……

When Zhang Lexing woke up again, he found a male doctor in a white coat next to the bed.Seeing him waking up, the doctor leaned over and asked, "Well, is there anything else that doesn't feel right?"

"I feel much better, and my head doesn't seem to hurt anymore." Zhang Lexing replied.

"Don't worry, the headache at the beginning may be caused by a collision in the head during the car accident, and a slight concussion. Rest well for a few days, and you will be fine soon." The doctor comforted, straightened up and whispered to the middle-aged woman next to the bed A few words, then turned and walked out.

Zhang Lexing closed his eyes. From others' point of view, he might want to take a rest, but in fact he was trying to hide the shock in his heart.Because since Zhang Lexing woke up again, there seemed to be many more things in his mind. He remembered some clips about the car accident, the roaring engine, the violent collision, the broken window, the dazzling white light, the scream of fear, and the flying limbs , dark green water, all this is so familiar, just like the car accident that happened to him when he was a child.Zhang Lexing felt that something must have happened to him, otherwise how could he have suddenly arrived at the scene of the car accident from the laboratory.

After resting for a while, Zhang Lexing opened his eyes and sat up, looked at the middle-aged woman sitting next to him, and suddenly something popped into his mind, "She is a colleague of my father's factory, surnamed Wei".

Dad's former colleague looked quite young, Zhang Lexing felt a little unbelievable, but in order to find out the situation, he opened his mouth and asked, "Aunt Wei, do you know what day it is today?"

"Well, I think today should be March 3th."

"In March, I remember that the accident happened on May 3th. Could it be that I have been in a coma for so long?" Zhang Lexing thought about it, feeling a little confused.

Zhang Lexing continued to ask: "Aunt Wei, what year is this year?"

"80 years, what a poor child..." Aunt Wei patted Zhang Lexing's head pitifully.

"Ah!" Zhang Lexing let out a low voice as if he was being shocked by an electric shock. March 1980, 3, three days ago was March 13. Isn't this the day when the car accident that killed both parents happened? Could it be that like those online novels, I was reborn by chance?But the time for others to be reborn back is pretty good, and there is a chance to change the fate of his family, but he missed it when he came back, and it happened to be that day, Zhang Lexing felt extremely depressed in his heart.

"Aunt Wei, do you know where my parents are? Why haven't I seen them for several days?" Zhang Lexing had a kind of luck in his heart, hoping that his rebirth would bring a turn for the luck of his parents.

"Son... Well, your parents are fine, take a good rest, and we'll talk about it when you're discharged from the hospital." Aunt Wei seemed to be hesitant to speak, and her expression was a little strange, with tears flickering in the corners of her eyes.

Seeing Aunt Wei's expression, Zhang Lexing knew that his last glimmer of hope had come to nothing. His body seemed to lose all strength, and he collapsed onto the hospital bed.

………………

A week later, Zhang Lexing was discharged from the hospital and returned home. His body was fine, but his mood was still gloomy.After returning home, Zhang Lexing finally learned about what happened on the day of the car accident from the visiting uncles and aunts, and the whole process was similar to what he remembered.That day when Zhang Lexing and his parents came back from other places, the car had an accident on the bridge back to the city. When the car slipped down the bridge, he was thrown out of the car by luck, but the other passengers in the car were not spared. It can be said to be the only survivor.

Zhang Lexing remembers that it took him three years to slowly get over his grief. Maybe the same thing happened twice, and the impact on people was not as great as the first time.After attending the memorial service for his parents, Zhang Lexing felt that the sadness in his heart gradually faded away, and he began to cheer up and think about his future.

Before being reborn, Zhang Lexing’s life was not considered successful. Not only did he not achieve much emotionally, even the money he had saved to buy a house was wiped out by a stock market crash, and he did not do anything he was interested in. No matter what the achievements are, if he still has a legitimate job, it can be said that he has accomplished nothing.

Now that he is reborn, according to those online novels, he can be regarded as a person who has mastered the development trend of the future world, and he should be able to achieve success by using a few of them casually. Zhang Lexing believes that if this is the case, his parents will be gratified if they are alive.After this period of observation, Zhang Lexing found that the biggest change after rebirth was that his memory improved a lot. Of course, he knew that this was not a rebirth ability, because most people have the best memory when they are in their teens. At least a lot better than adults in their 40s.

Zhang Lexing didn't know how long the memories he brought back from his rebirth could last. In order to seize his greatest advantage, he decided to write down some important events while he still remembered clearly.Sitting in front of the writing desk, Zhang Lexing wrote down in a notepad while thinking about it.

"August 2007, the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis dragged down stock markets around the world, especially domestic A-shares, which fell the most in the world, and it seemed that they hadn't bottomed out until May 8."

"The Internet bubble burst around April 2000, and the stock prices of many high-tech companies in the United States plummeted"

"Around October 1987, the U.S. stock market plummeted and spread to the world, forming a stock market crash"

"After the signing of the Plaza Agreement in 1985, the yen began to enter an upward channel. By the beginning of 1990, the RB property market and stock market plummeted."

"September 2000, 9, 11/911, don't forget the twin towers of the World Trade Center"

"U.S. Stocks to Buy: Microsoft, DELL, BBY, Cisco, Yahoo, Google"

........................

It has been two weeks since I went home, and Zhang Lexing has slowly adapted to the current life.Because the family had just encountered a catastrophe, considering the actual situation of Zhang Lexing's family, the factory took a long-term sick leave for him, planning to let him rest for a while, and wait until he feels better.If the situation improves after a while, arrange for Zhang Lexing to go back to school.

Of course, during this spare time, Zhang Lexing did not wait for death. He often went to the reading room of the factory to read various newspapers during the day, and went to the neighbor's house to watch TV at night.However, the more he read and learned, the worse his mood became. Zhang Lexing felt that his future path would not be as simple as in YY novels.

In many time-travel novels, after the protagonist is reborn, one or two abilities are indispensable, at least he has a clear memory of the future.But Zhang Lexing found helplessly that the reality is often different from the imagination. If he hadn't used the notepad to write down some important things some time ago, he wouldn't even be able to remember the future development clearly.Legend has it that the 80s was an adventurer's paradise, a golden age full of opportunities, but unfortunately the timing of Zhang Lexing's return was not ideal.Although the reform and opening up has begun, it is found from TV and newspapers that the individual economy is still suppressed and is still in a period of legalization.According to his memory, it will take at least five or six years before the individual economy can be put on the table. Now is obviously not a good time for individual entrepreneurship.

But Zhang Lexing is unwilling to waste several years in his student days, it seems that he needs to plan his future path carefully.Zhang Lexing's technical expertise is programming and network technology. In the current environment, network technology is not available at all, not to mention domestic, even in the technologically advanced United States, the network is still kept in the deep boudoir.Fortunately, in the next few years, domestic computer technology will develop rapidly, especially the system based on Apple II will have many opportunities. Zhang Lexing is very fortunate to have studied Apple II before returning, and maybe he can bring life to himself if he grasps one or two opportunities. first pot of gold.

However, the most urgent task at the moment is to find a way to support himself. If he does not have independent financial ability, when the factory arranges for Zhang Lexing to go back to school, he will have no resistance.If you want to support yourself, you have to find a job. It is not fashionable to go out to work these days, and the goal of work can only be placed in the factory.Zhang Lexing planned to visit the factory in two days to see if he could find a suitable job for himself.

Before going to the factory, Zhang Lexing decided to fully tap his potential.As the saying goes, there is no limit to art. Zhang Lexing was obsessed with comics when he was young. Draw a few scenes at random.Now this cartoon should only stay in the mind of a certain cartoonist. There are still several years before he officially publishes it. Zhang Lexing decided to draw a part of it first. Maybe he is lucky enough to have the opportunity to publish it. More There is always nothing wrong with being prepared.

Thinking of doing it, Zhang Lexing found the drawing board and pencils used in art class, and started to draw.After doing it, Zhang Lexing realized that after leaving those familiar comic tools, the effect of the drawing was much worse.Fortunately, some tools can find substitutes. Although they are relatively simple, they finally make the comics look like that.Zhang Lexing knew that he was not a superman, and it was impossible to draw the whole manga in just a few days, so he focused on the first chapter. The rest of the content only wrote a story outline, and the images of some important characters were also simple. Depicted and annotated alongside.After these tasks were completed, Zhang Le walked out of the house, taking an important step for his future.
