Chapter 20 Blowing and blowing can't finish my tomato garden

Moore's Law was proposed by Gordon Moore, one of the founders of Intel, and was recognized and proven by the scientific and technological community, which states that when the price remains the same, the number of components that can fit on an integrated circuit will double every 18-24 months, and the performance will also double. In other words, every dollar that can be bought for a computer will more than double every 18-24 months.

Moore's Law has physical limits, but it has been proven to work until 2017, but from computer chips to smartphone chips. The amount of computing required for an average smartphone chip is greater than that of all computers in the world a few decades ago combined.

Bill Gates personally came out to endorse, holding a CD high, standing on a stack of books dozens of meters high, and narrating the text next to it: The contents of these books are stored on a small CD. This is the most classic picture about describing the performance of a computer, and it also appeared on the cover of Time magazine.

After the new students started school in 2003, Sun Buqi, the first class president, proposed to buy a 1.44MB 3.5-inch floppy disk with the class fee to store the payment and expenditure records of the class fee. At that time, this decision was unanimously supported by the class cadres and unanimously praised by the students, who said, "Our class leader is powerful and fashionable enough, and other classes are old-fashioned and will only follow the trend to buy." ”

The computer must have a floppy drive, which can read the floppy disk anytime, anywhere. A SIMPLE EXCEL SHEET CAN LIST ALL THE INCOME AND EXPENSES OF THE CLASS FEE, WHICH IS MUCH MORE CONVENIENT THAN USING PAPER TO WRITE DOWN THE ACCOUNT. When the class cadres are handed over, they directly throw the floppy disk to the newly elected students, which is higher, bigger, and higher than handing over an account book!

At the beginning of 2004, his roommate Chen Zhiyong brought back a new computer, and the outdated floppy drive was no longer visible, and the optical drive began to be fully launched. The floppy disk that Sun Buqi bought with class money began to eat ashes, and the original "wise decision" immediately became an act of "working hard and hurting money", "patting his head", and "being hot-headed"!

On the bus, when Sun Buqi heard Li Xin talk about the high cost of reinstalling the system, he thought of the system installation plate that was widely circulated in later generations. Microsoft's genuine system installation disk is too expensive to bite the finger and cannot be activated repeatedly.

In 2004, the average salary of Chinese was less than 1,500 yuan, and spending hundreds of dollars to buy a genuine Microsoft system disk was a fantasy. The market for pirated CDs has emerged, especially in Internet cafes with a large number of computers.

Installing a new computer system is a "profound" technology and knowledge, and you must have entry-level computer knowledge in order to understand the meaning of each installation step and make the right choice for the next step. Once you install the system, you have to stay in front of the computer all the time and make a dozen or so choices, which usually takes more than two hours.

In college, anyone who can install a system is respected as a computer master. Classmates from the same class, at the same level, and even from the same department, especially girls, would come to the school and ask for help installing the new system. Once the quest is completed, dinner is always indispensable, and if there is still wine, more stories can be developed!

Sun Buqi spent "a lot of money" to buy a whiteboard CD, just to pirate Microsoft's WINDOS system, of course, not the original version such as 95, 2000, XP, etc., these discs have anti-burning programs, but the Chinese version of Microsoft's magic change, such as the common tomato garden in later generations, rainforest listening to the wind.

Just Do it!

Sun Buqi flickered away with his lips and a displeased look on his face, and then went into the dormitory, drove away the roommates who were playing games by force, and began to study the piracy cause. He searched the Internet, but he couldn't find any news of the rainforest, but fortunately he found the tomato garden.

After the new millennium, there was a wave of "Korean Wave" in China, and the romance film "Seoul" starring Korean actor Kim Hee-sun was broadcast in China, and the actor planted a pot of tomatoes and gave it to the girl he liked, saying classic lines.

"Do you know why I gave you tomatoes? Because red tomatoes are red on the outside, and then red on the inside. Green tomatoes are green on the outside and green on the inside. Tomatoes have always been the same, just like my heart for you. ”

This line and the line in "Journey to the West" "There was once a sincere love in front of me." I didn't cherish it, if God gave me another chance, I would like to say to her, I love you! If I have to add a time limit to this love, I hope it will be 10,000 years!"

Suzhou young Hong Lei's online name is "tired", just an ordinary college student, after watching "Hancheng Romance", he changed his website to Tomato Garden. An important feature of this website is to provide free downloads of computer operating system software for Internet users.

Hong Lei modified Microsoft's Windows XP system, canceled Microsoft's genuine verification program, and closed or uninstalled some infrequently used functions in Microsoft's original operating system, which accelerated the operation of the platform. With Tomato Garden, even computer novices and Internet idiots, as long as they download the installation package, they can complete the installation of the system according to the map.

Sun Buqi downloaded the resources and began to burn the whiteboard disc with the computer. The roommates looked at his dazzling operation, and only then did they know that the computer can still play like this, in addition to watching movies, reading novels, and playing games, there is such an operation!

It wasn't until the second year of college that Qiong University offered VB introductory programming to teach some web page production and hyperlinks. Now the roommates are all computer novices, and the motherboard and graphics card in the hardware configuration are stupidly unclear.

If the family is not very tyrant, they will not choose to buy a CD-ROM drive; the promotion of U disks, rich network downloadable resources, everyone can easily download the latest system, sound card, graphics card, motherboard latest drivers.

It took Sun Buqi two hours to burn ten discs. The roommates went from curiosity and excitement at the beginning to complaining. The "click" sound of the optical drive was like a magic sound, and these guys who didn't like to study had to take refuge in the reading room.

Ah Yong resolutely opposes this kind of behavior that harms his computer, and Sun Buqi promises to invite supper, and successfully fools the owner of the computer.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the first batch of goods came off the assembly line, and Sun Buqi walked out of the dormitory with the newly baked and still hot discs, and began to sell for the first time in his life.

"Coconut Wind" is the Internet café that Qiong college students love to go to, and it is also the cooperative Internet café of this campus CS competition. The boss is a graduate of Qiong University, and he came into contact with the game "Legend" in his junior year, and he was shocked for a while, and he was out of control, and his studies were also abandoned.

When his classmates graduated, he didn't get enough credits, and his degree certificate was seized by the school. Maybe stupid people have stupid blessings, and they are blessed by misfortune, and they live a better life than most of their classmates.

With a few CDs in his hand, Sun Buqi broke into the special game room of the Internet café owner, and asked straight to the point: "Boss Li, Senior Brother Li, do you want a film?"

Li Xiangyang's expression was greatly lifted, and the depression of being interrupted in the game was swept away, and he asked with an obscene face: "Senior Brother Sun, where did you get the good goods! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect that you, Sun Buqi, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also betrayed the revolution!"

Sun Buqi slapped away his senior brother's salty wet hand in a funny way, and made a serious suggestion, "Senior brother, a little masturbation, a big masturbation! The pimples on your face are about to catch up with the crater on the far side of the moon, be careful that the cashier senior sister empathizes and runs away with others." ”

The cashier of the Internet café is the senior sister of Qiong University, who has been working here since her sophomore year, and now controls the financial power of the Internet café. With such virtuous "employees", Li Xiangyang was able to play games lazily when his business was at its best.

The two of them have the intention of having a concubine, but it is a good thing. Li Xiangyang once made a poisonous oath: if he does not get a degree certificate, he will resolutely not talk about feelings. The pair of happy enemies are at a stalemate.

Sun Buqi, as a bystander, scoffed at the behavior of the two. Isn't a man's promise to a woman used to be broken, how can he become a ball if he doesn't break his promise?

Li Xiangyang led Sun Buqi to the bar and asked curiously: "Senior brother, why has Li Xin been running and cooperating all this time, it seems that we are all good friends!" He drew circles in the air with his fingers, implying that everyone is a fellow practitioner, and they are all men who eat women's "soft rice".

There is no way for such an unserious senior brother to communicate! The content of the speech is either a woman in the next three ways!

Sun Buqi threw the disc on the table and asked with a faint expression: "Senior brother, it doesn't seem that your network administrator here is full-time, right? How much does it cost for them to install the software once?"

Li Xiangyang was angry when he talked about this, and his words were angry, "Those students of the software school have their nostrils facing the sky, and they will charge me 10 yuan for installing a computer system! And they are not on call, they have to wait for their time." I don't know how much business has been wasted...... "It seems that he has too much resentment against the network manager, and the classic three characters are scolded by the country and kept spitting out.

In 2000, after the NASDAQ dot-com bubble in the United States, the stock price of technology stocks plummeted, but the wages of network personnel did not fall in the slightest. When the average salary is less than 1,500 yuan, the salary of graduates of the software school should reach 10,000 yuan, and more than half of the students who go to study in the United States will switch to network-related majors.

Sun Buqi proudly raised the CD, patted his chest proudly, and said loudly: "Senior brother made a cameo appearance in "Timely Rain Song Gongming" today, bringing computer "black technology" to senior brother. With this CD, those network administrators will lose their jobs! You don't have to be angry with them anymore, and you don't have to delay your business!"

Li Xiangyang is also the owner of hundreds of computers, and he will not be easily fooled by students. He asked suspiciously: "Senior brother, you didn't go to Beihai during the summer vacation, did you? MLM harms people, but you must not touch it!"

Beihai is separated by a strait from Qiongzhou, which is also a victim of a real estate bubble. The leaders chose to "fight poison with poison" and intentionally or unintentionally connived at the pyramid schemers, and within a few years, the city became the base camp of the pyramid schemers.

After the workers were laid off in 98, MLM began to rise in China, and laid-off workers who became rich overnight became the "pump" and practitioner of MLM. They must say that the new marketing model, Amway, Avon are backward business models, only by joining their own team, can they embark on the peak of life of "becoming the CEO and marrying Bai Fumei"!

Sun Buqi pretended to take a sip of Coke, and asked impatiently, "Boss Li, let me ask you, if there are no ordinary people who have been exposed to computer knowledge, after having this CD, they will install a computer system independently, how much is this CD worth?"

Although Li Xiangyang didn't believe in his very loud junior brother, Sun Buqi had always been calm and calm, so he had to temporarily choose to believe in the other party once. He frowned and said carefully:

"For Senior Brother, it is at least a few hundred or a few thousand yuan. Internet café computers are often poisoned, Kaspersky might as well be called "card bar crash", once and for all, the way is to reinstall the computer system. Those "computer whizs" often push back and wait for multiple computers to strike before they come and clean up. During this period of time, the business was wasted, a computer earned at least 20 yuan a day for my brother, not so much the delay of time, but the delay of money!"

Li Xiangyang regarded Sun Buqi as an "ivory tower", a gentleman who did not speak for himself, did not make the slightest reservation, and told his business secrets, bamboo tube beans. He is not so much revealing trade secrets, but complaining about the group of "uncles" in the software college!

Sun Buqi pursed his lips, tried his best to hide the joy between his eyebrows, and said excitedly: "Don't want 100 yuan, don't want 50 yuan, a plate only needs 20 yuan, you can solve all your problems! With him, your waist is not sore, your legs don't hurt, and you can go up to the seventh floor in one breath!"

Li Xiangyang looked at Sun Buqi like a fool, and said helplessly: "Senior brother, my brother lives on the fifth floor! What are you doing climbing the seventh floor? How do you know that Xiao Qian lives on the seventh floor, don't say it, be careful that I want to kill people and kill people!" Xiao Qian is the nickname of the senior sister.

The times are different, no one agrees with the stalks, everyone can't smile, it's really a pearl, but it may also be inadvertently discovered the ulterior secret of the senior brother......

Sun Buqi dared to take time, didn't want to continue to entangle, and took the initiative to stand up and do experiments, "Senior brother, let's pay attention to hearing is false, seeing is believing! You go to a computer idiot and do a trial, let's not watch ads, look at the efficacy!"

After Sun Buqi finished speaking, he walked directly to the senior sister at the front desk who was busy checking out. Generally speaking, girls are not interested in computer knowledge, and nine and a half out of ten are computer novices, who can only use computers and cannot repair computers.

Li Xiangyang blushed, grabbed Sun Buqi's shoulder, and said embarrassedly: "Your senior sister knows a little about computers, of course she only understands a little! Senior brother really doesn't know anything about computers, if you can teach me to install the system." Tonight, my brother will take care of your business once!"

Sun Buqi's forehead is bruised, why is this so familiar?
