Chapter 105: The Gap Is a Bit Big!

31 October 1997.

It was an ordinary day, but because of a ball game, it became extraordinary.

At noon that day, Tang He, who came out of the library, went to the cafeteria alone to eat.

Then he was surprised to see that many of his classmates wore sleeveless football shirts over their shirts, and a few boys actually painted the logo of the national flag on their faces, and they were all very excited.

Tang He was a little puzzled.

Then when he was queuing up to eat, he heard the chat between the two boys in front of him, and then he suddenly realized.

It turns out that this afternoon, the Chinese football team will play against the Qatar team at home in Sanshanhuacheng, and the outcome of this game will directly determine whether the Chinese team can qualify for the World Cup in France.

Whether it is in his previous life or in this life, Tang He doesn't like football.

He prefers fierce basketball to football, and his skills are reasonable, otherwise he wouldn't have joined the "son of the wind" in Hanoi.

But even if he doesn't pay attention to football anymore, every time he goes to the World Cup, he will watch a few games at the instigation of a group of friends or colleagues.

So Tang He probably has an impression of some of the more famous football allusions.

Like today's game.

Later generations have quite a lot of records for this game.

In an age of near-madness towards football, the level of attention to the game itself is unprecedented.

This year's World Cup Asian Top 10 is the first qualifier after the professionalization of Chinese football. Moreover, this year's players are known as the golden generation, and when it comes to the players of the national team, people who don't watch football games have heard of their big names. Hao Haidong, Sun Jihai, Li Tie, Ma Mingyu, Yang Chen......

In addition, Tang He archaeology in the previous life generally turned out a strange post on the Internet, and the author of this post became the first "Internet celebrity" in China because of this post.

This post is very famous and has touched countless netizens and brought countless people to tears.

This post is all about this game!

"Three Mountains Turned into Tears Without Believing in Tears".

Since the late 80s, football has taken the world by storm.

Thanks to the development of television networks, especially the live broadcast of color television, football matches have expanded rapidly around the world.

This art of war in peacetime has infected hundreds of millions of viewers around the world and created tens of thousands of fans from all walks of life.

People all over the world, regardless of color, language, age, or status, love the game of football.

The same is true for Huaxia.

Coupled with the restructuring of the Chinese Football League in 1994, JiaA also invisibly expanded this popular football craze across the country.

At this time, television, newspapers, radio and other media, regardless of whether they are related to football or not, will devote special pages and time slots to report on football events.

Whether or not there is football news is directly related to whether the media is able to attract audiences.

Therefore, the traffic radio station will broadcast the live football match, and the "Boutique Shopping Guide" will invest a lot of money to buy the qualifications to train and play with the national security team.

At this time, "Sports Weekly", "Football News" and CCTV's sports channel have all become famous media in the country because of football.

How crazy is football in this era?

Here's an example.

In 1995, the Yizhou Quanxing team was about to face relegation from the A, so the Jincheng defense battle began, and many people knew the stories that happened in the stadium through the media, but there were actually more stories off the field.

For example, opposite the hotel where the Bayi team stayed, someone stood on the roof with a ribbon around his head and shouted that if the Bayi team didn't let the Yizhou team go, he would jump off. And such fans are by no means alone.

Fortunately, the Yizhou team won the game in the end, otherwise it would have caused a collective suicide case that caused a sensation across the country.

After figuring out what was going on, Tang He couldn't help but look at these excited classmates with sympathy and pity.

You say you like what you like, but you like football!

You said that the football of which country you like is not good, but you like Chinese football!

Don't look at you now, you are full of confidence and elation, and when the afternoon game is over, I am afraid that you will burst into tears and be in pain.

When a person has great enthusiasm and expectation for a piece of information, once waiting for a basin of cold water, the person's loss will inevitably be extremely strong.

The so-called greater hope and greater disappointment, Qatar, which is recognized as the weakest, won at home and completely lost the opportunity to advance to the World Cup, this kind of pain may be a catastrophe for these students.

Tang He shook his head.

He was not interested in football, especially Chinese football, and left the cafeteria after eating, while the boys and girls occupied the cafeteria, chatting with each other, exchanging expectations for the results of the game, and waiting to watch the live broadcast on the broken TV that was hoisted from the cafeteria in the afternoon.

However, this also reminded Tang He who left.

Thinking that he hadn't been able to take care of the Internet for many days, Tang He suddenly had the interest to go online for a while.

So he went back to the dormitory and asked Ma Zi to call for him if the teacher called him in the afternoon public class, and then Tang He went directly to the E space-time Internet café.

After saying hello to the boss Wang Fatzi, Tang He opened a computer with Internet access and opened the website of Stone Lifang.

Because he is not interested in football, he rarely visits the sports salon forum of Stone Lifang, and usually mixes in the Jinyong Inn.

However, today Tang He opened the sports salon forum very rarely.

Sure enough, there have been quite a few analytical posts about this afternoon's game on it.

In other words, Tang He only found out at the end of September that someone from Sitong Lifang was broadcasting the game of the Chinese football team in text in the sports salon forum.

Maybe others don't understand the meaning, but Tang He knows what this humble text broadcast means.

Bring the live action of the game to the Internet.

This is definitely a groundbreaking event for the Chinese Internet.

This is the first time that Huaxia Internet has shown its media attributes and communication platform attributes in front of everyone!

Directly created a precedent for online live broadcasting!

In 1997, CCTV's sports channel would occasionally broadcast some important events, and most other media outlets did not have the slightest timeliness in their coverage of sports matches.

Under normal circumstances, sports fans can only wait until 10:30 p.m. to watch CCTV's sports news to know the details of the game.

And now the Internet has let all fans know about the process of the game for the first time!

Any idea what that means?

It was this example that stimulated the imagination and minds of Internet people, and then Huaxia Internet officially opened up the first era - the era of portals!

Tang He felt the pressure.

Tremendous pressure!

Because he has always reported the idea of entering the blue ocean of the Internet, Tang He is very concerned about the current development of the Internet.

In addition to keeping an eye on the latest websites and software on the Internet, he also subscribed to "Computer Enthusiasts" and "Computer Newspapers" in order to receive a wide range of information.

Needless to say, the four sides are profitable.

The predecessor of Xinlang, which was established as early as 1994, has not yet been revised into a web portal, but after the traffic brought by its own "Wukong Biography" and "Those Years", coupled with the current text live broadcast, it is the largest website in China in terms of scale and user traffic, and I am afraid that even "one" and two will have to be removed.

In the October issue of Computer Enthusiast magazine, Tang He saw an article recommending a website to readers.

The author of this article introduced readers to a website called Wangyi, which provides free personal homepage services to netizens, and any netizen can apply for their own free personal homepage in Wangyi, and then make their own personal website.

At that time, Tang He hadn't finished reading the content of the article, and his heart was tight.

Netbillion?

Ding Lei's net billion also appeared!

Tang He knows the power of free personal homepages, and how many listed websites in his previous life were just a personal homepage under the net.

To put it bluntly, the free homepage is equivalent to the blog and space of the future, and it is conceivable how much traffic Wangyi can attract with this service.

And what made Tang He speechless the most was-

Ding Lei will actually play soft and wide!

You must know that "Computer Enthusiast" is currently the largest circulation computer magazine in China, with a print run of nearly 800,000 copies, and is the first magazine for all computer enthusiasts and Internet enthusiasts. At the very least, this article can attract hundreds of thousands of traffic.

Although Tang He has not yet discovered the Shouhu website on the Internet, I think Zhang Zhaoyang must be waiting for a blockbuster now.

Once the three major portals are released, Huaxia Internet will enter the stage of horse racing.

And what about Tang He himself?

He's still struggling with a few codes to navigate the web.

The gap is so big!
