Chapter 30: The Boy Here
2001 was a frenzied year. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
At that time, we live in this magical land is undergoing some magical changes, the aftermath of the financial turmoil in 97 has not disappeared, the real estate industry as the pillar of China's economy is still sluggish, China's Internet has encountered an unprecedented cold winter, the 21st century has just begun, people have been restless, the Internet economy has been on the lips all day long, and the dream of realizing a superpower seems to be just around the corner.
In 2001, in the cold wind brought about by the collapse of the entire NASDAQ, NetEase CFO resigned, CEO and COO were also driven away, Ding Lei became the chief architect who even he couldn't understand, and then, NetEase was busy for more than half a year, wanting to sell himself but no one wanted it, and then fell into a fake account turmoil, and the beautiful Ding Lei finally moved his headquarters back to Guangzhou with his tail between his legs like a dog.
However, except for Gu Bei, no one would have thought that this ordinary-looking young man with a little baby fat would have such a hard life, and he was stunned to kill a horse gun with the help of Mobile Montnets and "Fantasy Journey to the West" and ascend to the throne of the richest man in China, hehe, it was indeed a man with three stones in his name.
Sohu, one of China's three major portals, under the strategic guidance of Zhang Chaoyang, thrillingly held the merger and acquisition sneak attack of Peking University Jade Bird, and then, Zhang Chaoyang began to gradually control the board of directors of Sohu, with the help of the great success of the mobile Montnets business, this turtle with an elegant appearance and a fierce heart came to a gorgeous silk counterattack!
At the same time, Shanda, 3721, Baidu, Alibaba and other troubled Internet companies are looking for their own salvation and the dawn of the dawn.
China's Internet is still in the cold wind, but it has ushered in the era of gold nuggets!
And in a small city in the south, Gu Bei, a teenager who knows all this, finished the college entrance examination early, and is curled up in the bedroom to learn the introductory knowledge of programming, he does not have the ambition of the next Ding Lei Ma Yun, he is just accumulating strength and doing what he did not do in his previous life, in addition, he also has to write copywriting, do advertising planning, go out for a run every morning, and occasionally go out with Li Zheng to play football, no matter what, the body is the first.
Gu Bei originally planned to buy a computer, but the computer in this year was too expensive, often tens of thousands of yuan, think about it or forget it, he gave all the money he earned to his parents, a total of 56,000 yuan, the hard-earned money earned by staying in the Internet café for a whole month, he did this, just to convey a message to his parents: Your son can earn 50,000 yuan a month, what is it if you owe 300,000 yuan? Don't be so depressed, don't think about earning money and paying off debts every day, in addition to earning money and enjoying it.
Survival is one thing, but life is a poem.
Gu's mother was happy, but also sighed that this era is really different, her son writes casually a day and earns more manuscript fees than his own salary in the factory for a month, so she doesn't nag Gu Bei to focus on studying or anything like that, just let him go out with his friends more and have fun, don't stay in the Internet café to write manuscripts.
Gu Bei's 50,000 yuan solved the family's dilemma.
Gu's mother took the money to pay off the creditors who chased the debts, and then she carefully calculated that the family still had 187,000 yuan of debts, all scattered, each family owed 10,000 thousands, and the economic pressure was still very great, but at least, on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, their family no longer had to wait for the creditors to come to the door, and even could buy some New Year goods to have a comfortable and good year.
Once, Gu's mother Li Yuling cleaned Gu Bei's bedroom, Gu Bei's bedroom, on the bed, on the desk, and on the bedside table were full of books and densely filled 4A paper with copywriting, what "C Language Programming", "E-commerce Technology Basics", "The Development History of Chinese Advertising Copywriting", and the English version of "Big Ideas".
Gu's mother didn't dare to move.
There was a notebook on the desk, half-open, Gu's mother glanced at it, it seemed to be a novel, she turned to the first page of the notebook, and on it were three large black characters written with a pen:
Ghost blows the lamp!
Gu's mother thought that this was a ghost story written by her son, so she opened it and read it, but she hadn't read many books and didn't understand much, but when she thought that her son could make a lot of money with these things, she was very proud, and recently the neighbors often praised Gu Bei in front of her, saying that Gu Bei was a promising baby, and the happiness on her face couldn't be hidden.
My son is a capable person.
Thinking like this, Gu's mother felt that all these years of hardship and tiredness were nothing, but sometimes, when she thought about it, she felt sad, her child was so sensible, and she was not like a child.
School is about to start, Gu Bei's clothes are still from last year, just a change of clothes, they are all washed and faded and white, Gu's mother thinks that she can't let her college classmates look down on her son, we can't compare with anything else, at least the clothes can't be too shabby, so she took Gu Bei to the street to buy clothes.
Gu Bei didn't remember how many years ago he went shopping with his mother, he was very happy, and walked around Xinglong Pedestrian Street for an afternoon with his mother's shoulders, eating barbecue, eating the most famous Xifeng Ferry fish meal in Stone Forest, and finally, his mother took him to the Matersbonwe store to buy clothes.
Gu Bei said that if you buy land and stall goods, you can wear them. Your son is so handsome, and he looks better in clothes, but he still doesn't give others a way to live, Mom, you have to be compassionate.
Gu Male couldn't straighten her waist, but in the end, she still followed Gu Bei.
Gu Bei and his mother came home after shopping, and received a call from the squad leader Li Yu, saying that they would come out to play at night.
Gu Bei happily went.
Usually his old classmates ask him to go out to play, but he never postpones it, because he has lived for so many years, and finally figured out a truth, there are too many things in this world that cannot be reversed once they pass away, such as youth, such as original intention, such as friendship.
Sometimes, Gu Bei and Li Zheng stepped on flip-flops and ate two cents of old popsicles, going around the streets and alleys of Shilin City, pressing the road, looking at beautiful girls, the brothers just lived heartlessly, grew up, spent a long summer, and in the blink of an eye to the end of August, Gu Bei participated in a Taiwan college banquet and sent away friends one by one.
Drunk laughter accompanied you for 30,000 games, and did not complain!
Early September.
Li Zheng went south to Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Li Caiwei went north to Tsinghua University.
Gu Bei sat on the train to Qingchuan in the east, looking at the stone forest in front of the window, bidding farewell to this small southern city that gave birth to him, Gu Bei was not sad, because the end of each period of time is the beginning of a new journey.
