Chapter 88 New Friends

After washing up and changing clothes to go out, the phone in the living room rang again, Zhang Lexing hurried over to pick up the phone.

"The place for the evening has been booked. It's almost time now. I'll pick up a friend first. I'll be there in 10 minutes." Wang Bin's voice came from the phone.

Zhang Lexing looked at the wall clock beside him and said, "Okay, I'll go down after a few minutes, see you at the gate of the community."

After sitting in the room for a while, Zhang Lexing got up and went downstairs to the gate of the community.When they arrived at the gate of the community, Wang Bin hadn't arrived yet, so Zhang Lexing stood by the side of the road, looking around while waiting.After about 2 minutes, Wang Bin's jeep appeared.

Zhang Lexing waved his hand at the car, the jeep skidded vigorously and made an emergency stop, and stopped firmly in front of him.Wang Bin pushed open the car door and waved: "Get in the car."

Zhang Lexing opened the rear door and got in.As soon as he got in, he found that there was another person in the passenger seat, probably Wang Bin's friend. Just by looking at his back, he knew that he was a very strong person.

This is Wang Bin who turned sideways and pointed at the person in the passenger seat, and said, "Le Xing, this is my friend Li Taotao, you can also call him Brother Tao. He came back from the army and is now a city criminal policeman." The captain of the detachment, this time he has put in a lot of effort to find a house."

Zhang Lexing quickly stretched out his hand: "Brother Tao, I will trouble you this time."

When Li Taotao turned around, Zhang Lexing was startled, and almost retracted his hand, but he managed to control it in time.Li Taotao was actually quite handsome, but on the left side of his face there was a huge scar that ran through the entire cheek, which added to his fierceness.

"It's scaring you." Li Taotao didn't show any displeasure, and pointed to the scar and introduced, "It was left on the border when I was a soldier. It's gone now."

Zhang Lexing felt ashamed in his heart, but said with a smile on his face, "I really didn't expect Brother Tao to have participated in that border war, it's really rude."

"It's okay, I look like this. Many people think that I don't look like a criminal policeman or a hooligan, haha." Li Taotao waved his hand and smiled.

"I said, can you two sit down first? I'm going to drive. If you have anything to say, let's talk about it after dinner." Wang Bin couldn't help coming over to interfere.

Hearing this, Zhang Lexing and Li Taotao quickly sat down, and with the roar of the engine, the jeep started racing again.Zhang Lexing tightly grasped the back of the driver's seat, trying to make himself sit more securely. There was no way that seat belts were not popular these days, and there was no driver's seat, let alone the back seat of the jeep.At this moment, Zhang Lexing missed his former driver very much, and at the same time secretly made up his mind that he must get a car and a driver as soon as possible, and riding in Wang Bin's jeep every day would shorten his life.After finally arriving at the place to eat, Zhang Lexing quickly got out of the jeep, stepped on the concrete floor with both feet, and felt an extremely solid feeling in his heart.Wang Bin parked the car, got out of the car and asked Zhang Lexing and Li Taotao to follow him.

Wang Bin didn't go to the two restaurants across the road, but went straight into an alley next to him.After walking for a while, Zhang Lexing felt very puzzled, and couldn't help asking: "We are going to eat, why are we in the alley?"

Li Taotao, who was left behind, took up the conversation and said, "You don't know that. In fact, there are many authentic BJ-style dishes only in this alley."

Zhang Lexing nodded. He really didn't know that there were so many wonderful things hidden in the alley before. It seems that he will spend more time in the future when he has free time.After walking another 200 meters, Wang Bin stopped.Zhang Lexing noticed a signboard hanging on a window, with the words "Comrade and He" written in big characters, which made people a little confused about the way, which was really strange.Wang Bin pushed open a wooden door with a stone door frame familiarly, and walked in. Li Taotao followed closely. Although Zhang Lexing still felt a little strange, he could only follow.

Walking through the door, it suddenly becomes clear. It seems a little cramped from the outside, but it looks very spacious inside.There are several tables in the hall as soon as you enter the door, all of which are full of people, eating in full swing.Further inside is a row of several rooms, with small signs hanging on the doors, which seem to be boxes for eating.

After the three of Zhang Lexing entered the door, a woman who looked like a waiter greeted her: "Who are you, sir?"

Wang Bin waved his hand and said, "Three, the ones who have reserved a place are named Wang."

"Oh, sir, please follow me." The waiter turned around and led the way, leading the three of them to Wang Binding's box.After coming to the private room and sitting down, Wang Bin said to the waiter, "The dishes are ready to serve, first bring some cold dishes, and then serve six bottles of beer."

The waiter turned around and left the box, and soon came back with a tray, put down some cold dishes and went out again, when he came to the box again, the waiter brought the tray and replaced it with beer.Taking advantage of the time when the waiter was serving the food, the three of them chatted. Only then did Zhang Lexing know that Wang Bin no longer worked in the original Foreign Affairs Office, and has now been transferred to the newly established Economic and Trade Office, and Li Taotao is just better than Wang Bin. Bin was one year older. The two had known each other since they were young, and they had played together since they were young. They were also classmates when they were in college. It was only after Li Taotao joined the army that they separated for a while.Only then did Li Taotao know that Zhang Lexing was the boss friend Wang Bin had mentioned to him. Not only did he have many industries in China, but he also had a larger scale abroad.

Chatting, maybe because of Li Taotao's professional habits, his topic turned to the big case in Hong Kong: "Le Xing, you just came from Hong Kong, have you heard of the 718 bank robbery?"

Unexpectedly, the news spread so quickly, Zhang Lexing was slightly taken aback, and then said: "Of course I have heard of it, I wonder if you have heard that there are people outside the bank who were injured and hospitalized in this incident?"

"Huh," Li Taotao made a surprised voice: "I really don't know about this, is there something hidden?"

Wang Bin also showed a look of attention, and moved slightly closer.

Zhang Lexing tapped his nose with his hand, and said angrily, "This unlucky ghost is me."

"That's really embarrassing." Li Taotao's face changed, and he smiled embarrassedly.

"It's okay, it's okay anyway..." Zhang Lexing doesn't care, and it's not a secret. It's okay to talk about it among friends, so he narrated in detail what happened at that time. The experience of life and death hanging by a thread, Let the two of them sigh.

Li Taotao sighed: "Le Xing, you are lucky. But your bodyguard is too cowardly. If you want to catch up with the people from our army, they are more than enough to deal with them."

Wang Bin glared at Li Taotao, and Li Taotao also felt that he had made a slip of the tongue just now, so he smiled a little embarrassedly.

After chatting for a while, the waiter began to bring the dishes Wang Bin ordered one by one. Wang Bin asked the waiter to bring three glasses, opened the beer, poured the wine into the glasses, and then the three began to chat while eating. , but this time the topic is different.

"Le Xing, what are your plans for returning to China this time?" Wang Bin asked after taking a sip of his wine.

"I came back this time to start a company specializing in the development of computer games." Zhang Lexing replied.

"Computer games? Is it the kind played on a TV?" Wang Bin has not yet figured out the difference between a game console and a computer, while Li Taotao looks confused, probably even more confused.

"You must have seen a computer before." Zhang Lexing was a little helpless. Computers are still too unpopular these days, let alone computer games.

"Oh, I've seen computers. They're square-headed and square-brained. Most people don't allow them to touch them. They're very mysterious." Li Taotao seemed to have seen something similar.

"Computers, I've used them before, and they usually have green screens, so games can also be played on them?" Wang Bin's level seems to be better, but the computers he has come into contact with seem to be older.

"You don't know that foreign science and technology have advanced very fast these years. Computer screens are no longer monochromatic, and popular monitors can already display very rich colors. Computer games and the kind connected to the TV The game consoles played on the Internet are different, and can be made more complex and interesting, and the game types are more abundant. For example, there are flight simulation games, where players can operate their own planes through keyboards or joysticks, and fight against enemy planes in the sky. It’s not the kind of video game console effect you often see, the picture on the computer is much more detailed, and facing the monitor is a bit like sitting in the cabin of an airplane.”

Li Taotao said in surprise: "Isn't that like flying a real plane?"

"Almost, future flight simulation games will be more realistic. If you customize an aircraft shell, replace the windows with monitors, replace the controllers with flight joysticks, and put on stereo headphones, it will really feel like flying an airplane. gone."

Li Taotao exclaimed: "In this case, wouldn't pilots be able to learn on the ground in the future?"

"That is, as long as computer technology continues to improve, the simulated effects will only become more and more realistic. Maybe in the future, in wars, pilots will not be needed to go to the sky. Everyone wants to play games on the ground and control the planes to fight each other."

Wang Bin also became interested, and asked, "Is what you said true?"

After drinking two glasses of wine, Zhang Lexing almost slipped his mouth when he got excited, and quickly rounded up his words: "Of course I guessed it, and I'm not a researcher of weapons. But from the perspective of technological development, there is such a thing as A possibility. For example, there is a drone that can be controlled remotely and can send back the situation around the drone through a high-definition camera, so that the operator of the drone can sit at home and control the drone to carry out For reconnaissance, if the drone is equipped with combat components, it can be used as a fighter or attack aircraft."

Wang Bin was deep in thought, but Li Taotao was talking about it, and then said: "I heard that it seems true, but I don't know when it will be realized. By the way, when you come back to start a computer game company, do you also plan to do it? This kind of game?"

"In the future, when the company's technical strength is sufficient, we will consider doing it. It is definitely not possible now." Seeing that Li Taotao hesitated to speak, Zhang Lexing said: "Don't worry, if you really want to make this kind of flight simulation game, you must be the first!" I invite you to play."

Li Taotao smiled, and said with some embarrassment: "This is so embarrassing. How about it, if there is anything brother can help, just say it."

"There is really something that may bother you two. My company doesn't have many people yet, and I don't know where to recruit people." Zhang Lexing has participated in many job fairs, but that happened after the end of the 90s. Is there such a thing at this time? I'm really not sure about the job fair.

"It's easy, leave it to me, and I'll help you find out tomorrow." Li Taotao patted his chest and took the matter down.

At this time, Wang Bin interjected and asked, "What kind of people do we need to find? Do you have any requirements?"

"We don't need many people right now, just a few administrative and financial personnel are enough," Zhang Lexing said.

Wang Bin scratched his head and said embarrassingly, "Well...Chu Jing has nothing to do at home now. I wonder if it would be convenient for her to go? Chu Jing has worked in an office before, so she has some experience."

"It's okay, it's more reassuring to have acquaintances to help. It's okay if you have friends to recommend, as long as they are qualified for the job."

In fact, Zhang Lexing also plans to recruit some local people who are familiar with the situation, which will make things easier to do. If they are acquaintances, they will naturally be more reassuring in the early stages of the company's establishment.

At this time, Li Taotao also came over, and said coyly: "Well, Lexing, do you still need security guards in your company? I have a comrade in arms. He used to be in the reconnaissance brigade. He is similar to foreign special forces and has quite good skills. I retired a few years ago, and I heard that I didn't get along very well, if you want someone, let me tell you, he will definitely come."

"Okay, the company will definitely have security guards in the future, and I believe the people from our army are reliable." Zhang Lexing replied.

"Thank you!" Li Taotao said very sincerely, picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp, then pointed the mouth of the glass at Zhang Lexing and said, "Do it first, as a respect!"

Zhang Lexing had no choice but to drink up the wine in the glass...

After eating, Zhang Lexing was a little drunk, but fortunately Wang Bin and Li Taotao helped him back to the community.After simply washing his face, Zhang Lexing fell asleep on the bed without even bothering to change his clothes.
