Chapter Twenty-Six: Aunt Hong
The term "computer lab" is a product of the late 90s.
At that time, the computer system was basically DOS and windoes95, and the popularity was not as high as it is now, so the computer room came into being.
Unlike Internet cafes, the atmosphere in the computer room is much better, and the environment is not so dirty and messy.
The price is also cheaper than that of Internet cafes, basically 1 yuan an hour, and then you can also get a machine card, a monthly card, and an annual card.
The advantage of applying for a card is that after a one-time payment, you can come and play at any time, which is more convenient.
……
The computer room was the predecessor of the Internet café, but after the advent of the Internet café, the product of this era did not disappear all at once, and many places are still in operation.
It wasn't until 03 that the computer room was gradually eliminated by the market.
The reason why Bei Chang'an chose to go to the computer room is entirely because the environment there is good and he can calm down.
Unlike Internet cafes, the sound of playing games is too loud, especially those who play CS, often enter the play too deeply, and the shouting is shocking.
……
The day after the results were issued, Don't Changan told his parents his thoughts.
What he means is that he wants to take advantage of the summer vacation to get more exposure to computers, and then study hard, so that he can go to university in the future, and maybe he will be one step ahead.
Bei Changan thought that his mother would disagree, but he didn't expect that Bei's mother immediately agreed, and gave Bei Changan 300 yuan, saying that he would let him find it himself, and if the money was not enough, she would ask for it.
Sure enough, with good grades as a foreshadowing, everything went smoothly.
……
Taking the money, Don't Chang'an went out, and rode around several computer rooms near his home, but after a morning, he didn't meet a satisfactory one.
The reason is that the computers in these computer rooms are too old to meet the requirements of other Chang'an, and the people who come to the computer are some novices who have just started programming, and their professionalism is greatly reduced.
What he wants to look for is the kind that is more professional, well-equipped, and preferably the boss can also know a little bit of computer knowledge, and if necessary, can help himself in some aspects.
……
I had a casual meal, and in the afternoon, Don't Chang'an went to the commercial area a little farther away, and after shopping around, I finally met someone who was so interesting.
This computer room is in the underground shopping mall in the business district, next to the billiards hall, the place is very difficult to find, but fortunately there is a sign on the road, and the words on it are very eye-catching.
"Aunt Hong's computer room. ”
According to the instructions above, Bei Changan went down the stairs, bypassed the billiard hall, and walked directly in.
The environment of the computer room is nice, clean and tidy.
There are about a dozen machines. There are not many people, some are programming, some are looking for information, and some are couples, who are snuggling together to watch Hong Kong films, very quiet.
Compared to the Internet café, this place is simply paradise.
……
As soon as I pushed the door open and entered, a middle-aged woman with glasses came out of the room inside: "Do you want to get on the plane?"
"Hmm. ”
"Do you want to get a card?" or ......," the woman asked.
Don't Changan smiled, "I want to apply for a card, but I don't know if your computer can meet my requirements." ”
"What do you want to do? play a game, or do homework? ”
Bei Changan scanned the computers in front of him, and then asked her, "I want to make software." ”
"Do you know this?" the woman looked a little incredulous when she heard Bei Chang'an's words.
In her opinion, Bei Changan is a high school student at most, and he can't master such a professional technique.
"Understand. "Don't Chang'an.
The woman smiled, then pointed to the first few computers, and said, "Those few should be fine, the systems are all newly installed 2000, and these are win98 in the back." In terms of price, the front is 1 yuan 5, and the back is 1 yuan, if you apply for a card, it can be cheaper. ”
"Can I open it and take a look?"
"Okay, come in with me. ”
……
Turn on the computer, don't Chang'an tried it, and found that the system was indeed newly installed, the hard disk was big enough, and the network speed was very fast.
"Can I get a monthly card, can it be cheaper?"
"If you apply for a card, I'll count you 180 a month, and you can use any equipment I have here, floppy disks, recorders, all of them. I usually make some simple web pages myself, if you don't understand anything, you can also ask me. ”
Don't Chang'an smiled, looked around, and thought it was not bad.
The price was right, and the things weren't too old, and they were completely sufficient, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do it for a month." ”
"Then you can go in with me and fill out the form, and I'll get you a boarding card." ”
……
When he got inside, Bei Changan looked at the woman in front of him while filling out the form.
This woman's age is not easy to say, she is thirty to forty years old, she has a good temperament, she is not like an ordinary woman, her manners are elegant, and her education level should not be low.
It looks average, not pretty, but has good skin, light makeup, and an obvious beauty mole on the lips, which is just right, adding a bit of charm.
Don't Chang'an filled in everything that should be filled in the form, then took out 200 yuan and handed it over together.
The woman took the money, found Don't Chang'an 20, and while holding the watch, she asked with a smile: "Don't Chang'an?"
"Yes, yes. ”
"Good name. ”
"Thank you. What do you call it?"
The woman said, "You just call me Aunt Hong." ”
"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow. ”
"Yes. ”
……
When riding home with the machine card, Bei Changan deliberately went around the school and stayed downstairs at Tang Wan's house for a while, but he didn't see her.
Just to see, the windows on the fourth floor are open, and the curtains are beautiful, they are the kind of lilac.
……
After arriving home, Bei Changan was in a good mood, took out his little overlord repeater from the drawer, put a cassette of Pu Shu's "I Go to 2000", and listened quietly.
This album was released in 99, and there are many classic tracks by Pu Shu, such as "Those Flowers", "Birch Forest", "On the Field of Hope" and so on, which were very popular at the time.
Listening to the songs, Don't Chang'an suddenly thought that maybe some songs in later generations can also bring wealth to themselves if they are now.
In the future society, entertainment is paramount, and the appearance fees of many celebrities are tens of millions at every turn, and the benefits they have created are absolutely unprecedented.
In the past, people said that the drama was misleading the country, but now in peacetime, it is just the opposite.
……
Don't Chang'an usually likes to listen to songs, and there are a lot of songs in his head.
If you record all these songs from later generations, and then operate them a little, it will definitely be a great benefit.
In addition to songs, some movies, variety shows, and talent shows, but any entertainment projects that are not available now and became popular later, you can take them and try them.
This field is also a piece of fat.
But don't Chang'an understands in his heart that entertainment is still a spice for life after all, and it cannot be used as his life's work.
It's okay to do it, but you can't take it too seriously, what this society needs is still industries that can promote economic development, and as for the rest, there will be a lonely day after all.
