Hearing Chen Qiaoshan ask about work, Wang Sifeng's heart suddenly swelled with a little sadness, he couldn't see his future direction clearly, and he was a little confused for a while.

Wang Sifeng has graduated for more than a year, but he has never left Peking University.

He is currently following his mentor to do an information security project, and all the money he has saved in private in the past few years has been invested, but unfortunately the progress of the project is slow, seeing that the money is going to be spent, and the next stage of funds does not know where to find it, and the whole project team is fluctuating for a while.

Wang Sifeng is a lucky person, he was admitted to the Department of Computer Science of Xi'an Jiaotong University in 95 years, and was admitted to the Department of Computer Science of Peking University for a master's degree in 99.

In Yenching, the Internet circle is very small, especially in Zhongguancun, where students from Peking University and Tsinghua University have become the new force of the Internet, and the two adjacent universities have brought together the country's top talents and provided the first top programmers for the rise of the Internet in China.

Located in Zhongguancun, the computer science students of the two universities are the luckiest group of people, and they are also the first people to contact the Internet, and the vast majority of them have become the top programmers in China and occupy the positions of CTO of a large number of domestic Internet companies.

In 99, when he first came to Yanjing, Wang Sifeng was still a poor and white hairy boy, but in less than half a year, he earned tens of thousands, of course, these are nothing, then Zhou Feng's gang was still in his junior year, and he had already begun to work for Chen Yizhou with a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan.

It was during that time that Wang Sifeng met many like-minded people, such as Zhuang Li, a 96-level student in the computer science department of Tsinghua University, who competed with her boyfriend for the first scholarship in the grade every year, as well as Wang Xiaochuan, Hu Ning, Zhou Jie, Xu Chaojun...... There are also Lei Ming, Chen Jinkai, Wang Shaoyang, and Xu Hanjie from Peking University......

It was a beautiful era, they stood at the forefront of the times, in those years, their group of proud people were the top group of people in China, and there were often brokers from Zhongguancun knocking on the door of their dormitory with a large number of banknotes.

Wang Sifeng still clearly remembers the first time he helped someone write a program and was paid 5,000 yuan, he was ecstatic and excited.

5,000 yuan in 99 is definitely a huge amount of money, and in my hometown in Lu Province, my parents can't earn this money after a year of hard work.

But when he took the money to invite a few acquaintances to go to the West Gate of Peking University to masturbate, he was ridiculed by the gang, it turned out that he let the subcontractor give a lot of money, and the technology was very expensive at that time, but he didn't care at all, and since then, he has gradually integrated into the circle of the Internet.

The circle is not large, including most of the teachers and students of the School of Computer Science of Tsinghua University of Peking University, of course, the teachers generally do not take small jobs, most of them have companies outside, and sometimes they are too busy to pull them to help, and of course the remuneration will not be less.

Wang Sifeng met Liu Chang at that time, Liu Chang is not an insider, she is a 96-level student in the Tsinghua Economics and Management Department, and she is small with Zhuang Li, so it is logical to get into this circle.

When the two first met, it was the time when Wang Sifeng was most energetic, in terms of technology, there were few stronger than him in the circle, maybe it was these that attracted Liu Chang.

Thinking of this, Wang Sifeng's heart swelled with bitterness, but unfortunately the times are changing too fast, and the friends who often hung out together in Ximen a few years ago have now gone their separate ways, and he is the only one who is still here to persevere.

Wang Sifeng couldn't help but sigh, at the end of 99, Zhou Feng's invitation, in 2000, Liu Jianguo's invitation, in 01, Lei Ming invited again, and now Chen Jinkai's invitation, he refused without exception, and now he thinks about it maybe he did something wrong.

Zhou Feng's main direction is distributed systems, Liu Jianguo and Lei Ming's master and apprentice are mainly engaged in Internet search, Chen Jinkai is studying Internet theory, and his interest is information security.

Wang Sifeng has a persistence in his heart, but he has never told anyone that his ultimate goal is to go to Microsoft China or IBM China Research Institute, looking at Liu Chang sitting next to him, he can't help but feel a little sorry in his heart.

Liu Chang sacrificed too much for him, a top student of Tsinghua University's Department of Economics and Management, chose to get a job at a bank branch near Peking University, and no one may believe it, her dream may be to follow her boyfriend to the United States to study like Zhuang Li.

Wang Sifeng pondered in his heart for a long time, and finally made up his mind, if this project failed, he would agree to Wang Xiaochuan's invitation, not for himself, but also for Liu Chang.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was a little dull, Liu Chang saw Wang Sifeng's strange appearance, and couldn't help but ask with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

Wang Sifeng said: "I'm thinking about whether to agree to Wang Xiaochuan's invitation, maybe it's time to give up." ”

There were a total of four people in the private room, and as soon as his words came out, Liu Chang and Chen Qiaoshan were taken aback.

Chen Qiaoshan was very surprised, Wang Sifeng is undoubtedly a talent, or the top Internet talent in China, he originally had a heart to fool Wang Sifeng, but now it seems that it is not easy.

is no stranger to Wang Xiaochuan and Chen Qiaoshan, the vice president of Sohu in the future, the CEO of Sogou, and the 96-level of Tsinghua University, a scholar-style character.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little puzzled in his heart, he clearly remembered that Wang Sifeng went to NetEase in the end, why did he decide to go to Sohu again? But thinking about it, he was relieved, this circle is so big, people like him must have been stared at for a long time.

Wang Sifeng is undoubtedly an unavoidable talent, such a person has been tested by reality, whether it is in NetEase or later starting his own business, he has achieved success, otherwise he would not have become the target of programmers from Peking University.

Although Wang Sifeng is not doing well now, he has no shortage of opportunities to make money, and there is a saying in the Internet world that the smartest people earn the most money, which is also the charm of the Internet.

According to the trajectory of history, Wang Sifeng has not become a celebrity on the Forbes rich list, but sometimes money is not the measure of a person's success, he is the kind of person who is more idealistic.

Chen Qiaoshan pondered in his heart, maybe he could start from this aspect, although he is empty-handed now, but who stipulates that empty-handed people can't recruit talents, maybe he should study how to fool Wang Sifeng to his side.

……

Liu Chang should be the person who knows Wang Sifeng best at present, she knows the talent of the man in front of her, and she also knows what he wants in his heart, she has persevered all the way for so long, she didn't expect such a result, and she doesn't know how to describe her current mood.

The woman is a strange animal, and Liu Chang's mind at this time is very complicated and difficult to understand.

She is willing to see Wang Sifeng face reality, it may not be the life he wants to live, but having a high-paying job and a stable life is at least much better than what he is now.

But Liu Chang hopes that Wang Sifeng can persevere, she likes that high-spirited man, she can't bear to watch this man full of ideals bent over by reality, although subconsciously, she has long known that this is an inevitable result.

Liu Chang was very entangled in his heart, and he couldn't come up with a reason after thinking about it, and finally held back an irrelevant sentence, "You ordered all the dishes on this table, and you can pay the bill yourself if you don't eat clean!"

Wang Sifeng suddenly had no other thoughts, although Liu Chang's request was a bit excessive, but he didn't dare to refute it, after all, he had to count on Liu Chang to pay for it later, otherwise he would have to eat the overlord meal.
