On the highway in the United States, you can often see a lot of "greyhound buses" of the same size and color, with running greyhound patterns on both sides of the body, which can be seen in almost every city, and if it is a short distance, it is very fast and convenient to go back and forth many times a day according to a fixed route.

It was not the first time Su Mu had taken this kind of car, his seat was in the middle of the bus, leaning against the window, fastening his seat belt and putting his schoolbag on his lap, ready to sleep directly in Menlo Park County, for which he deliberately stayed up late last night to sleep, and got up early this morning.

In order to prevent not being able to sleep, I also brought two novels with me.

One is called "Merry Knights" and the other is "Flying Knives, See Flying Knives Again", the former is highly recommended by second-hand bookstall owners, and it is said that boys like to read it.

At that time, Su Mu was flipping through a few pages by the bookstall and really liked it......

Silently sandwiched in a few other books, paid to take home, and it was perfect to pass the time, but the first disc had not yet appeared, and the Internet could not watch videos, except for the "midnight movie" that minors could not enter, only pictures from books and magazines remained.

Playing with Du Zhong and Li Ping'an and others all day long, Su Mu, who should know, knows that at their age, they happen to be the most interested in the little things of men and women, and they were busy packing up their things last night and didn't have time to watch them, so they brought them out today.

Very well-behaved at home, Su Mu just doesn't like to play around, but he is not as honest as his parents and old men think, for leaving home to go out to study, he only feels relaxed at the moment, and he can finally let the birds fly in the sky!

The bus headed north, because it had to go somewhere else to send people off, instead of taking California's most famous Highway 1, which was built along the seaside, accompanied by a variety of scenic scenery along the way, from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and also passed through the world-famous Pebble Beach Golf Course and Seventeen Mile Bay on the way, and if you were lucky enough to see sea lions, seals, whales and other animals, it was a pity not to see it this time.

Sitting next to Su Mu was an obese young man, fortunately the position was spacious enough not to squeeze into Su Mu, he closed his eyes and began to sleep, and soon snored.

In the car, I am most afraid of meeting crying children, passengers who talk loudly, etc., snoring is also included, and the space is already small, which makes Su Mu upset.

I wanted to sleep but couldn't, and what was even more annoying was that my head was tilted over and leaned on his shoulder as a pillow.

After pushing it over, it quickly crooked again, and he reached out again to push it away, and the saliva ran down the corner of the fat man's mouth, slowly dripping down, and he didn't know it at all.

After a few hours of driving, it looks like it will be difficult, so I simply close my eyes and occasionally open my eyes to look at the scenery outside the window.

Just like a long-distance bus, occasionally someone gets on and off the bus, and the seat number is printed on the ticket, Su Mu has no intention of occupying other people's seats, anyway, the voice can be heard in the whole carriage, and it is the same whether it is changed or not.

Soon, there was a black man who was about to sleep, but no matter whether he was polite or impolite, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after waking up the fat white man next to Su Mu.

About three hours later, most of the passengers in the carriage had changed their faces, and two young men wearing glasses and wearing Stanford University badges sat down shortly before they began to talk.

"Hey, I heard you got a job at IBM?"

A young man with a lot of freckles on his face whispered, "Amazing, I heard that when I was an intern at IBM, the salary was very good, and the salary increase was very fast." There are many programming language masters in it, the kind that can CPP, we really suffer, and we have to relearn a new programming language, and we just understand it, and we are outdated. ”

His handsome friend replied, "After learning C, you will soon be able to study CPP, haven't you also found an internship?"

"Right in Silicon Valley, the name of the company is Oracle, Daniel, do you know?" the young man continued, seeing his friend shake his head.

"At the moment, it looks like we have a lot of potential, we can double our sales every year, and we are mainly in the database software business, but unfortunately our boss, Mr. Larry Ellison, is a neurotic who dropped out of the University of Chicago and treats us too harshly, and he can't leave work until late every time......"

If you hadn't read some books related to programming, Su Mu would definitely not understand what they were saying, "C" is a programming language, and "CPP", the whole process should be "C-Plus-Plus", that is, "C++" programming language, which is improved from "C", and was just announced by Bell Labs last year.

As early as 1967, the market value was as high as 192.3 billion US dollars, known as "the most valuable company in history", and its annual profit is as high as 6 billion US dollars.

And the so-called "Oracle", he doesn't know what the company is, and he has never heard of the name Larry Ellison, which is of course the famous "Oracle" company, which has only been in its infancy for a few years, showing good development prospects, and is currently brewing to go public, with an annual profit of just over 10 million US dollars.

Su Mu was not reborn, he didn't know much about the future, he only learned about it through bits and pieces of news on the radio broadcast, and he didn't know what he had missed.

What's more, even if you hear the name of the company "Oracle", you will not think of the company "Oracle", and there is no half-dime relationship between the two names, so you can guess it......

Although he seized a little opportunity, in fact, Su Mu is not much ahead, he only knows what the result is, he doesn't know anything about the process, compared with a group of up-and-coming future "Internet industry bosses", he is already a big step behind, the start-up capital is temporarily more than 20,000 US dollars, and the supermarket will take a long time to make a profit, and the company is not owned by him alone, and he can't use the money inside.

How will it develop in the future, there are great variables, Su Mu eavesdropped very carefully, from the conversation between the two heard Apple, but also heard Intel and Microsoft, these three companies he knows, as for Borland (Baolan company), Sun-Microsystems (Sun Microelectronics company), Oracle and other names, I don't know.

has not yet arrived in Silicon Valley, but through the dialogue between the two, Su Mu can already feel the news of Silicon Valley in advance, who makes a lot of money, who goes bankrupt, who gets financing, who is being maliciously merged, etc., and he is completely fascinated by it, and like countless trendsetters who go to Silicon Valley to try to start a business, he feels that there is a vast blue sky waiting for him, and there is money and fame everywhere.

Hearing that a wealthy man recently spent 10 million dollars to start a business in Silicon Valley in an attempt to develop a smart watch that he could carry with him, Su Mu bowed his head and silently calculated the wealth in his hand.

Very good, almost one-third of the other party's, it seems that you have to find a way to make money first......
