Chapter XXVII: The Oolong Incident
From a linguistic point of view, the origin of oolong is roughly as follows: the English "own-goal" (the ball that enters the goal of the goal) happens to be similar to the pronunciation of the word "oolong" in Cantonese, and the Cantonese "oolong" has the meaning of "make a mistake, Uriba Tu", etc., about the sixties and seventies of the last century, Hong Kong reporters translated "own goal" with "oolong" in their reports.

The topic of Negroponte reached a climax in 309, and Song Xiaobo did not elaborate on him himself. He admired his disciple Zhang Chaoyang more.
Cai Yifeng ridiculed him for 'not knowing how to appreciate the beauty of women, and paying attention to some big men all day long'.
Song Xiaobo disagreed, he said: "Negroponte's disciples are really powerful, graduated from Qing University in '86, and received a doctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in '93.
Chen Zier watched and laughed from the side, and when he heard the words 'Zhang Chaoyang', his expression was stunned, and he confirmed to Song Xiaobo, "What did you just say his name?"
"Zhang Chaoyang!"
Chen Zier was silent, he thought for a while, and then asked: "Just now you said that his company is the Internet company that you think is very good, what is the letter called?"
"Aitexin, why are you so nervous, third child? Could it be that someone stole your name?"
Cai Yifeng smiled and responded, "Haha, it's possible, you can sue him for infringement, anyway, he has money." β
Chen Zier ignored them, and he fell into a tangle: "Hey? This is strange, isn't Zhang Chaoyang's company called Sohu? What the hell is Aitxin?
But looking back, such a bombardment resume should be Sohu's Zhang Chaoyang, an undergraduate from Qingdao University and a doctorate from Massachusetts, there will be no mistake.
It seems that he doesn't know this person, maybe he started a business long ago before he founded Sohu.
Song Xiaobo said that he graduated in 93, and now he is 97 years old, and if he returns to China after graduation, he may have been in business for several years, and it is not strange what the name of the company is.
Chen Zier's heart became hot, since this Negroponte was coming, he would also learn from Sheng Qianyu to take the opportunity to blow with him twice, and then use him to meet Zhang Chaoyang.
Although Sohu is not a giant like BAT, its annual revenue has reached more than one billion US dollars, and in the early stage of the great development of the Internet, it was also one of the three major portals, but it slowly disappeared.
In addition, in addition to the problem of money, Zhang Chaoyang himself is also one of the big names in the Internet industry, and there are only a dozen people at the top of this circle, who know one, and the rest are all known.
So Chen Zier, who had no interest in Sunday's lecture, suddenly began to look forward to it.
But sometimes God just wants to tease you twice, just when Chen Zier had expectations, just when he imagined that he was about to sit with a few ancestors on the Internet and chase bragging, the School of Computer Science suddenly notified.
Negroponte didn't come because of his health!
The lecture has been cancelled!
Chen Zier and Sheng Qianyu stood at the gate of the School of Computer Science, looking at the notice posted in black and white, unable to say anything, especially Chen Zier!
βWhat-the-fuckοΌβ
Sheng Qianyu breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I'm a little disappointed and a little relieved. β
"What do you mean?"
"Actually, I was a little nervous when I got up today, although I made a decision to ask him for advice, but after all, he is a world-famous scholar, and I ......"
Chen Zier: ......
Do you still have plans to retreat at a critical time?
There is one thing that Chen Zier is a little curious, even if Negroponte doesn't come, anyway, it is not impossible to contact the Internet investment to make money. Now, he has some desire to understand Sheng Qianyu's 'inferiority'.
It is better to choose a day than to hit the day, and the time that happened to be deliberately vacated has now become free time, so Chen Zier asked for two drinks at a small greenhouse cafΓ© on the CUHK campus and sat down with her.
In fact, she still prepared it carefully, at least from the clothes, it can be seen that it used to be gray or black ordinary coats, but today it is different.
She wears a pale pink sweater and a brown trench coat on the top, and tight and close-fitting jeans on the bottom, showing off her slender figure and moving temperament.
Sheng Qianyu took the drink and said to Chen Zier: "Thank you, I'm sorry for your trouble." β
Chen Zier began to guide and ask: "You have to tell me three times a day on average, 'I'm sorry for you' five times, and thanking me has become the norm, why is this?"
Sheng Qianyu said dumbfoundedly: "Because... I'm really afraid of bothering you. β
Chen Zier: ......
Forget it, he simply said, "My question may be a bit abrupt, because I don't think it's possible for you to have this kind of mentality." So I'm curious, you... Why do you seem to have low self-esteem?"
Chen Zier's words are light, where is she a little inferior, she is very inferior, and her inferiority complex affects her relationship with others.
Sheng Qianyu's face immediately changed, she was poked in the sore spot, and she didn't know how to answer.
Chen Zier said: "I'm sorry, I don't mean anything else, I just think that a girl like you who is so good-looking, has such a good temperament, and has such a smart head, you are better than most girls, it makes no sense... It doesn't make sense like that. β
Sheng Qianyu replied concisely and quickly: "What does this have to do with whether it looks good or not." β
Chen Zier still wanted to say, but Sheng Qianyu couldn't stand it, and she left quickly under the pretext that something was wrong.
It's really a bit tricky. Chen Zier is also helpless, it can't be that he was hit by some shadow in his childhood, right? Or is the critical period of character formation not very good?
He had no way of knowing, and he couldn't force the questioning, so he could only let time solve it.
After the oolong incident, next Monday.
The pudding convenience store is about to officially open.
Chen Zier went to see it on Sunday afternoon, and for the first time as a leader, he inspected it and experienced that feeling.
In fact, he has already heard some discussions about pudding in school, mostly because the decoration of pudding is so beautiful, fashionable and modern, especially attractive to young students.
Chen Zier also felt comfortable listening to these remarks, and he didn't know how many times more comfortable than his mother took a high math class.
When they arrived at the store, Sun Hong and the three of them were there, and the lights at the door were as colorful as the New Year, and the two girls felt a little novel when they saw Chen Zier coming, they didn't understand Boss Chen's style, and they came once every so many days, as if it wasn't their own business.
Sun Hong was no longer surprised, he led Chen Zier to look around, in fact, he was a layman, at most to see if there was any dust.
The next morning, the pudding officially opened, and the electronic board above the door showed that it was open.
Chen Zier didn't show up, because he believed that it would definitely be popular.
The fact is that as long as you are a consumer and you can't help but be attracted by the storefront of the pudding, you can feel the clean, bright and modern atmosphere through the glass.
On a small blackboard at the door, Qian Hongying wrote beautifully: soybean milk buns and other commodity types and their prices.
Suffice it to say, as long as you pass by, take a look inside, and then look at the content on the blackboard, you will unconsciously go in.
After entering, the smiling service of the two young girls will immediately make customers feel like a spring breeze, according to Chen Zier's requirements, it must be a lively and willing to open their mouths.
A crisp 'Welcome' and 'Hello, you have spent a total of xx yuan, looking for your change......
There is a saying that describes how a man feels about a girl, called: Your inner decision is whether I want to be with you or not, and your appearance determines whether I want to know your inner self.
Pudding convenience stores, excellent on the outside and more beautiful on the inside, naturally captured the hearts of customers.
Chen Zier only went in the evening, and he wanted to know about the turnover of the first day, but he missed the time.
It was the time when many of the students were back in their dormitories, and then he couldn't find a space to talk to the two girls. When the two female employees saw the boss coming, they worked harder.
When the four or five seats next to the curved glass in the store were not empty at all, two little girls simply sat down and chatted while eating ice cream.
Even Sun Hong is busy.
Chen Zier stopped him and asked, "What are you running around?"
Sun Hong replied: "Some people don't know where the things they want are, I'll go and tell them, this is not what you said, you want to serve!"
Chen Zier slapped his forehead, stopped him, and said, "You wait a while, you don't want to go." β
Sun Hong was puzzled, "Ah, why?", he explained: "No, when we put the goods, we have no experience, and the release is a little chaotic, and these people may not be able to find it." β
Chen Zier said: "Then let them find it slowly." β
Sun Hong: ......
"My big boss, what are you talking about, don't you just say that you must do a good job!"
Chen Zier pulled him into the corridor into the bathroom, and there were fewer people.
"If you ask them to look for a little longer, they'll stay a little longer at the pudding point, and everybody will spend a minute or two longer, and that's different," he explained. β
Sun Hong was speechless, "It's different, we'll be crowded here!"
"You're stupid! You don't want to be crowded when you open a store?
Sun Hong was stunned, as if it was!
"No, the squeeze is ineffective, we originally served one person a minute, but now the efficiency is low and becomes two minutes a person, it seems that there are a lot of people, but the turnover will be relatively reduced. And the people outside see that there are too many people inside, so they don't come in, it's a loss!"
Chen Zier couldn't help but look at him with admiration, "Yo, my brain is turning fast enough, this detail can be analyzed, smart." β
Sun Hong grinned, "Hehe, so I'd better go, so that those two girls can serve more people, and we can sell more." β
But Chen Zier still stopped him, Sun Hong was shrewd and clever, but it wasn't enough.
"With such a small store as ours, it's great that you can guide and serve dozens of more people, and the turnover may be hundreds of yuan. But we have much more to lose. β
"Losses? We're selling more and we're losing money?"
Chen Zier smiled confidently, "Yes, I just want some people to look at too many people inside and be discouraged, so that they feel that the pudding convenience store is very popular, and make them think, this store: really awesome!"
Sun Hong: Profiteers!
