Chapter 279: Blessing and Misfortune

After Lin Weidong announced the news of quarantine and working from home, employees did not panic and began to pack their things in an orderly manner.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Weidong arranged for Wu Wenhui to contact the Modu telecommunications department, and sent the company's technical support personnel to ensure that every colleague could connect to the Internet at home and access the company's system.

Anyone who has managed a company with dozens or more people knows how difficult it is and how chaotic it can be.

However, Century Company, under the wise leadership of Lin Weidong, showed amazing organizational and mobilization skills, and in just over two hours, all preparations were made, and Century Company began to work from home.

April 1st, April Fool's Day.

On the morning of April 2, there was overwhelming news that Zhang Guorong committed suicide by jumping off a building.

Even the employees of the company are discussing the news of Zhang Guorong's death.

Because it happened to be April Fool's Day yesterday, several employees thought it was a belated April Fool's joke, and the joke was a bit big.

Although Lin Weidong is not very familiar with Leslie Cheung, he has also heard his songs and watched his movies, and knows that this matter is true.

Because in his previous life, the news of the death of the superstar Leslie Cheung did cause a great sensation in China.

It's just that Lin Weidong regrets that although his rebirth has changed many people and things, it still failed to change Zhang Guorong's departure.

Regarding this news, Chen Liling obviously didn't believe it.

During lunch, Chen Liling asked him: "Weidong, do you think the news that Leslie Cheung committed suicide by jumping off a building is true?"

Lin Weidong nodded: "It should be true." ”

Chen Liling asked again: "Could it be an April Fool's Day joke?"

Lin Weidong denied: "No, it's all reported on TV." ”

After listening to Lin Weidong's answer, Chen Liling still didn't believe it.

Lin Weidong knew that Chen Liling's favorite male singer was Wang Jie, not Leslie Cheung, so he asked curiously: "What's wrong with Liling? Do you like Leslie Cheung very much?"

Chen Liling shook her head: "I don't like it very much, I just think it's a pity, I don't believe it's true." ”

Lin Weidong comforted softly: "Liling, don't be sad, maybe leaving, for him, is also a relief." ”

Chen Liling still didn't want to believe this fact, and said stubbornly: "Maybe he didn't die?"

It wasn't until CCTV's "News 30 Minutes" reported the news of Zhang Guorong's death that Chen Liling really believed it.

After lunch, Lin Weidong made a phone call and went back to his hometown, constantly instilling in his parents the idea that the epidemic was very serious, telling his parents to go to less crowded places, pay attention to personal hygiene, and eat more foods that enhance immunity.

In addition, Lin Weidong also called his younger siblings and told them to pay attention to safety, stay at school obediently, and don't run around.

What makes Lin Weidong feel gratified is that during this period of time, employees have consciously started work at 8 o'clock every day, have some food at noon, sit at the computer at 1 o'clock, and at 8 or 9 o'clock in the evening, everyone chats and plays games together on the Internet, and even holds several online karaoke competitions.

Lin Weidong and Liu Limin, holding the address book every day, called the employees one by one to understand the situation and comfort people.

In the end, the operation of Century Chinese Network was not interrupted for a day, and readers and authors did not even feel any problems with Century Chinese Network.

Century Chinese Network is operating normally, and Lin Weidong also has a lot of free time, preparing a large number of banlangen and a large number of special masks, some of which are reserved for himself and Chen Liling, and the other part is distributed to Liu Limin, Wang Taoxin, and Wu Wenhui.

Liu Liling saw Lin Weidong bring a whole box of banlangen and medical masks, and asked puzzledly: "Weidong, why are you buying so many banlangen?"

Lin Weidong said seriously: "I read in the newspaper that there was an outbreak of infectious diseases in Guangzhou, and some people on the Internet said that Banlan root can be prevented. ”

Liu Liling asked suspiciously: "Is it really fake? Isn't Banlangen a cold prevention? It also has an effect on SARS?"

Of course, Liu Liling does not believe in Lin Weidong's personality, but does not believe that Banlangen can have the effect of preventing SARS virus.

Facing Liu Limin's questioning, Lin Weidong said calmly: "I don't know if it has any effect, what if there is? ”

Liu Limin thought for a while and nodded: "What you said is also true, there will be no mistake in taking precautions." ”

Recently, in this short period of time, there is no other excuse to go on a business trip, Lin Weidong can only go back and forth to Liu Limin and Chen Liling's boudoir.

For safety reasons, Lin Weidong will spend three days every week with Liu Limin, and the remaining four days will be spent with Chen Liling.

It's not that Lin Weidong loves Chen Liling more and prefers Chen Liling, but because Liu Limin doesn't give him a day, and her temper is relatively big, and she often serves her and massages her or something.

In contrast, Lin Weidong obviously prefers Chen Liling's well-behaved and gentle personality, not only obedient, but also very grass-tolerant.

In mid-April, the supply of banlangen in the Modu area began to exceed demand.

However, compared with other areas with serious epidemics, the epidemic in Modu can be called "gentle drizzle".

Among them, there may be a chance of luck, but it is the result of a number of effective measures taken by the Modu Municipal Government, and a set of prevention and control systems that sink to the grassroots level of the community have gradually been formed.

These measures are the result of years of experience accumulated in the city after the hepatitis A epidemic in 1988, when more than 300,000 people were infected.

Of course, the prevention and control work of the magic city can do such a game, and it is inseparable from the cooperation of the citizens.

In this short period of time, there is a very dramatic and representative story circulating in the magic city.

A third-grade student at World Primary School in Yangpu District hesitated for a long time when he returned to school to fill out the "SARS Prevention Report Form".

Such a form is not unfamiliar to people who have experienced SARS.

Almost everyone who has the jurisdiction of a unit will be asked to fill out the form, which will investigate the individual's exposure to the source of infection, in addition to whether the individual has suspected SARS symptoms such as fever and cough.

The reason why the elementary school student was so difficult was that he didn't know how to answer the question "Have you ever received people from other places at home?"

Because the actual situation was that he had received it, and his grandfather once instructed him to fill in "none" in this column.

After some ideological struggle, he crossed out the "none" in the form and carefully wrote "my cousin from other places has come" next to it with a pencil.

What this elementary school student didn't expect was that he would become the school's "honest little guard".

In fact, in school, he is not the only one who is also faced with the choice between truth and lies.

"When my dad scolded me, I asked him what I was wrong with, and he couldn't tell...... Two days later, he whispered to me that he was not good. Another classmate who once exposed his father's lying about his temperature said.

Measuring body temperature every day and reporting it truthfully is also a routine operation for SARS prevention and control.

As the saying goes, if you lose your horse, you will know the blessing and the curse. The spread of SARS, to a certain extent, has brought huge growth to the business of Century Company.

Due to the impact of SARS, many netizens in China almost stayed at home and spent much more time playing with computers than usual.

As a result, Century Chinese Network has more than 2 million registered users and an average daily traffic of 8 million, both of which are the first among all literary websites.
