Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Flooding of Plug-ins

Fast forward to November 2003. At this time of the season, the heat has begun to gradually dissipate, and the air is a little cooler.

Liu Yueru called Liu Yun, because of this press conference, some time ago a few more exciting news, the number of online people on Youyou has been steadily rising, and the peak period exceeded 8000. She also proudly said that several businesses have come to inquire about advertising.

Liu Yun was silent for a moment and gave his opinion: "First, don't accept illegal advertisements, especially those fake and shoddy goods. Second, the principle of similar exclusion, do not accept milk tea advertisements. That's all there is to it. ”

Liu Yueru, who was on the other end of the phone, said a little angrily: "I said Boss Liu, your YOYO milk tea advertisement sounds good for 500,000 a year, but 450,000 yuan goes through the process and goes back, leaving only 50,000 yuan of funds, and I can't accept similar advertisements, I also suffer too much." ”

"I can't put a competitor in my own territory and compete with me for the market. I can guarantee that no matter how much revenue this Youyou network has, I will not take a penny, except for giving you bonuses, all of it will be invested in the development of the website. He didn't expect to make money from the site for a few years, something he had already decided.

"Okay, with your promise. I also have a bottom in my heart, and I will carefully check the manufacturers that I have come to these few times, and I will not cause trouble to the company. Liu Yueru confidently assured.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yun opened his laptop as usual and logged in to his QQ. It's past 8 p.m. now, and he's the only one in the bedroom.

As soon as Liu Yun opened his QQ, he received a smiling expression from Su Yuhan to him, and the time turned out to be 7:20, more than forty minutes had passed since now.

The communication and chat tools of this era are very inconvenient, if you only occasionally turn on the computer to surf the Internet, netizens may not see your message after a few days, and in the mobile era a few years later, whether it is a message sent on QQ or WeChat, the other party can quickly receive the message.

Liu Yun smiled knowingly, and also replied to Su Yuhan with an expression, and typed a few words: Yuhan, are you surfing the Internet in an Internet café?

Very few freshmen bring computers, and most of them buy them when they are sophomores. In this era, there is no mobile phone QQ, Liu Yun thought that since Su Yuhan was on QQ, he should go to the Internet café to surf the Internet.

After a while, Su Yuhan's message came back: We have class tonight, or do we have a computer class. A crying emoji was added to the end.

"It's a prestigious university, and I can't even let go of the evening time. Liu Yun typed the word, added a pitiful expression, and sent it over.

The two chatted back and forth for a while, and Liu Yun suddenly remembered that this was the first time he had chatted so enthusiastically on QQ since he and Su Yuhan had been dating, and everything could be communicated through mobile phones in the past.

This feeling is familiar to him and strange to him, I remember the last time I chatted so warmly with a person of the opposite sex on QQ, it was the moment when he just graduated from his previous life and just joined the work, almost around 2008.

At that time, the mobile era had not yet arrived, WeChat had not yet appeared, QQ was still the overlord of communication software, and it still retained the youthfulness when it came out of the ivory tower. He and his girlfriend at the beginning chatted hotly on QQ every night. It's a long memory.

Liu Yun and Su Yuhan chatted intermittently for more than an hour, and they didn't know how many dynamic small expressions they posted, he enjoyed and cherished this feeling, and his intuition told him that there would not be many opportunities like this in the future.

At about nine o'clock, Su Yuhan told him that it was time for class to end, and sent him a goodbye emoji, and her QQ profile picture dimmed.

Liu Yun carefully looked at the interface of QQ, and found that there was no group list, and he suddenly remembered that Tencent would not launch the QQ group business until 2005, and his idea of wanting to pass the time in the water group was in vain.

In all kinds of boredom, he opened a few friends list, which included two high school classmates, as well as Su Yuhan, and two roommates Chen Zifeng and Li Hao, a total of five people. He didn't ask Tian Fu's QQ number. and Ye Taolang, that guy Liu Yun didn't take the initiative to add.

Two high school classmates, one is Li Hui. When Liu Yun was a freshman or sophomore in high school, he and himself were comrades-in-arms who fought side by side in "Legend of Blood", and the two became friends very early.

and Wu Yan, when the two were at the same table in high school, they also had one-on-one tutoring with him, and they added QQ friends at that time. This girl should be studying at Fudan University now, and I don't know how her life is there.

Liu Yun clicked on Li Hui's chat box and remembered that the school he filled in was Ningjiang Institute of Technology, which was in the same university town as him.

He sent a message to the past: Playing a game?

It didn't take long for Li Hui's message to come back: yes, the university is really free.

Liu Yun's face was black, this guy really let himself go when he got to college. He remembered that although Ningjiang Institute of Technology was a three-book institution, the usual final exams were still quite strict, and there were few opportunities to cheat. If you miss too many classes, repeat a grade or drop out, it is not negotiable.

In his previous life, Liu Yun had failed classes and experienced painful retaking and make-up exams, so his memory is still fresh.

"Take it easy, Ningjiang Institute of Technology is one of the top three colleges in the province, and the exam is not as easy as you think. "A student in three years of high school, he doesn't want Li Hui to end up repeating or dropping out because of failing the course, you must know that the tuition fees of the three colleges are half more expensive than one university.

"Don't worry, 60 points is no problem. Because of Liu Yun's influence, Li Hui also began to study seriously in the second semester of his third year of high school, and almost never went to an Internet café.

This semester, his grades have also improved significantly, and his score has increased by more than 50 points compared to the past. His confidence has never been higher, and he feels that learning has never been difficult for him.

Seeing that Li Hui didn't take it to heart, Liu Yun shook his head and smiled helplessly, he had already reminded him, and the rest was his own business.

Li Hui sent another message: Have you played a game lately? I'm playing Legend again.

Liu Yun's heart showed a little curiosity: Legend, aren't you focusing on miracles now?

In the chat between the two, Li Hui told Liu Yun the reason why he played "Legend of Blood" again.

At the beginning, Li Hui played "Miracle MU" with 10 yuan a month plug-in, which was really beautiful, and many players did not use this plug-in because they were reluctant to spend money, and his advantage was not small. And soon after, a cracked version of this plug-in was circulating on the Internet, free and without paying.

Players of "Miracle" went crazy, and everyone rushed to tell each other that they all downloaded this plug-in. In just one month, the share of this plug-in in the game is already far ahead.

Something that was originally rare has now become available to everyone, and Li Hui's sense of superiority has slowly been lost. The original advantages disappeared in a blink of an eye, and the psychological gap, as well as the flood of plug-ins, made him gradually lose his enthusiasm for this game, and slowly he returned to the world of legends.
