Chapter 289: Router
Having the future combat policy in place, Hong Tao can be regarded as down-to-earth, and having three foreign experts as his shields, and his return home every once in a while is not only not a mistake, but also a credit. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The rest of the matter is to call the little uncle and ask him to help the grandmother buy some ingredients, and then let the uncle with the best cooking skills come back and make a table of dishes to receive the guests in the evening. Then I called Jin Yue and asked her to go to Di'anmen Shopping Mall to buy a few new sets of bedding, the bed and house at home are ready-made, and you can live in it with a bed.
In the end, I told my uncle and Jin Yue that if you can buy expensive, you won't buy cheap, and you will be greeted if you are not willing to eat and use it, and keep it for your own family after you can't finish eating and using it, as long as you have an invoice, don't be ambiguous.
The equipment inventory and acceptance work in the afternoon went smoothly, because Hong Tao was a good dog, O'Connor was willing to explain to him a few more words about what was for, and the item on the corresponding list was immediately clear. In this way, it is necessary to discuss one screw by one between the Chinese and foreign parties, and it can also allow the Chinese receiving personnel to better understand the general structure of the equipment and the progress of the work in the next few days, and make corresponding preparations in advance. Another benefit is that I can complete the progress of the day before leaving work, and make up for the time lost in listening to the leader's speech in the morning.
"Hong Tao, Mr. Yan is very satisfied with the progress of today's work, especially the communication between you and foreign personnel. He said, let you go back to the company to change the car first, your car pick-up expert is a bit old. When he got off work, Director Qian of the R&D Department came up and whispered Mr. Yan's instructions to Hong Tao, and then patted Hong Tao's shoulder meaningfully.
"Damn! Foreign experts have to sit in the Passat, and the employees of the unit can only sit in the Jetta, the magic horse! You just get it, see who really works hard for you, and if you have the ability, you let the foreign experts never leave!"
Hong Tao is very annoyed by this kind of thinking that he would rather be a friend than a house slave, the Qing Dynasty is gone, but that kind of fucking thought has not decreased at all. However, he only dared to scold in his heart, and he had to show a flattered look on his face, showing Director Qian that Mr. Yan's care had been taken to heart.
Marx's performance after work proved that he was a good person, because he didn't forget to buy a gift for Hong Tao's grandmother, although it was just a bottle of white wine sold in the hotel merchandise department, but he drove the other two people who were not very conscious, so Hong Tao's grandmother had an extra silk scarf and a crystal knick-knack, mainly because Hong Tao felt that he was taking advantage of it and was in a good mood.
"This is the Imperial Palace!" drove three foreign experts to grandma's house on the way to pass by the Lama Temple, it is said that O'Connor, who had studied the capital in the tourist brochure, began to explain to the two companions, just like the style that the sisters had visited.
"This is called Hutong, the most indispensable part of the culture of the capital. If you had been here ten years earlier, the vast majority of people in Beijing would have lived in hutongs. High-rise buildings are not uncommon, and you have seen a lot of bustling neighborhoods, but I guarantee that the lifestyle here is unique to Beijing, and there is only one in the world. Marx, from now on, you can take the camera and shoot hard, let's get out of the car and walk. Hong Tao parked the car directly at the gate of the Lama Temple, and then led the three foreigners into the alley.
"Hong, will our car be towed away when we park there?" O'Connor was very sure that this large courtyard of red bricks and tiles was the palace, so he was very worried about where Hong Tao parked.
"Don't worry at all, there is no emperor now, these blocks are my territory, as long as I want, no one will dare to move it if I block the car at the gate. "When you can brag, Hong Tao will not let go, the feeling of being stunned by others is very enjoyable, what could be more fun than a few foreigners who have never been to China.
It was only 500 meters from the street to grandma's house, and the four people walked for more than half an hour, which had to be urged to go, if Hong Tao didn't care, it was estimated that they wouldn't be able to walk in the middle of the night. They are all new to everything, and they can discuss for a long time around a few bicycles, compare and contrast what are the structural differences with German bicycles, and talk about the advantages and disadvantages of both sides.
Marx's camera is now very busy, a courtyard gate, a commissary, a coal pile, a cabbage pile they all have to take turns to take a group photo, with Hong Tao with his doglegs, they are bold, and dare to go into a large compound to find out.
Finally arrived at grandma's house, and the three foreign experts immediately changed their careers to reporters, first chatting with grandma and uncle about various small problems in life through Hong Tao, and then filming and asking questions about various Chinese food served by uncle. After obtaining Hong Tao's permission, he also specially recorded a portrait of his uncle's heroic appearance of stir-frying.
Dinner is dumplings, grandma said to catch the wind dumplings to see off noodles, but according to grandma's standards, the old man must eat and drink before eating, and grandpa stipulated this back then. Regardless of whether the uncle's craftsmanship suited the taste of foreign experts, anyway, on the surface, they were quite happy to eat, and the amount of food was larger than that of noon, and they did not express any discomfort with the Japanese food system. The three of them also insisted on giving up their forks and spoons, picked up chopsticks together, and carried food into their mouths with great difficulty.
The meal took more than two hours to finish, and simply put, the guests and hosts were happy, and everyone was happy. It was the first time in my life that my grandmother had eaten at the same table with a foreigner, and I also asked a lot of questions about the life and family of foreign experts in their hometowns, which I thought was very fresh. The younger uncle is more interested in how foreigners do business, and it seems that he has a heart for international trade.
"Hong, your grandmother is very lovely, I also had a grandmother when I was a child, and now she has gone to heaven. O'Connor, who drank two glasses of liquor, talked a lot, which was a precursor to drunkenness, if it wasn't for Hong Tao to stop him, the uncle could have poured all three of them down.
"Hong, I think we should change our plans. If all three of us live in your house, isn't it too crowded. "Marx's alcohol consumption is not bad, and he can still keep a clear head after two or two drinks.
After looking at the layout of his grandmother's house, he felt that Hong Tao's house might not be enough to accommodate three guests to live together, because their personal bubbles are relatively large, and even colleagues have to maintain a personal distance.
"Marx, don't worry, my house has enough space for you to live in, one person and one room. But I'm afraid you'll have to share the bathroom with Akyol, and Miss O'Connor can have a separate bathroom. "If there were two more people, Hong Tao would have to be blind, and now the three east rooms are just right for Marx and Akyol to live, and O'Connor will go to Zhang Yuanyuan's small courtyard to live in the west house, which is not crowded at all.
"Will we meet your parents? Do you need to buy some gifts?" Akyol obviously does not have Marx's sincerity, and he is resolute when he wants to buy gifts, where can he ask the owner if he needs a gift, which makes Hong Tao answer very contradictory.
“…… My parents also went to heaven like O'Connor's grandmother, and don't be sorry, it's not a bad thing to mention them. Hong Tao pondered hard, and felt that it was too late to temporarily find a blind uncle and blind aunt to pretend to be his parents to receive gifts, and he could only pit foreign friends once.
"Oh, Hong, you're rich, richer than your grandmother's family!" When Hong Tao led them into his small courtyard, O'Connor immediately positioned Hong Tao as the rich class, because the houses here were obviously taller and more beautiful than grandma's house.
"This is an inheritance, it is my grandfather's legacy, and I am still poor. But I'm trying to figure out how to get rich, and come and see the small business I run with my friends, which should be pretty good. To make foreign experts think that he is rich, Hong Tao's little vanity is quite satisfying, but it is not enough, so the computer room in the basement has become an achievement that he is ready to show off. The house was left by the ancestors, and it was not hard to say it, and the business was really opened by itself.
"God, you're not just a rich man, you're a capitalist, you have so many computers on the Internet!" O'Connor, who is of Irish descent and naturally a Catholic, followed Hong Tao down to the basement and saw a room full of computers and customers, with little stars in her eyes while drawing a cross on her chest.
"Internet bar...... Is there such an Internet in Melbourne?" Hong Tao heard the official name of the computer house for the first time, and then he became interested in similar business models abroad.
"There are libraries and schools, games to go to bookstores, but there are not so many people...... Is it free?" O'Connor walked to the back of a row of computers, looking at the computer games on the screen in some surprise.
"It's free! How can a capitalist be free, ten yuan an hour!" This sentence made Hong Tao very disliked to listen to it, and it was free wherever and wherever it was.
"I've seen stores in Liverpool that specialise in games, and they're called eSports, which is similar to yours. Marx, is there anything in Germany?" "Akyol is quite familiar with England, but a little unfamiliar with his hometown, which shows that what O'Connor said is indeed reliable, doing this job is to go around the world all year round, and there is very little time to go home.
"Hong, do you have access to the Internet?" Marx's brain circuit is very different from his two colleagues, he is really a bit of a technical man's character, and the first thing he thinks about wherever he goes is technology.
"The computer in my house does have the Internet, so you can use it as much as you want, but it's very slow, and it's even slower to access foreign websites. Hong Tao thought that Marx was going to use the Internet to send emails to his family.
"I might find a way to make all the computers here share the internet, but I need a computer as a router. Marx shook his head and said that he did not want to use the Internet, but proposed a plan to help Hong Tao achieve Internet sharing.
"You still know how to get a router?!" Hong Tao was very interested in Marx's suggestion, he had heard of this kind of technology, but he really couldn't, even Lin Qiang couldn't play it. He studied computers, but he did not learn all the technology related to computers, and he was weak in the aspect of communication and the Internet.
"This is my specialty, do you want to try it?" Marx finally smiled, laughing happily, and encouraged Hong Tao vigorously.
"You have to try! But don't you need to take a break? Will it delay tomorrow's work?" Hong Tao can still afford the price of a computer, but Hong Tao doesn't want to affect the work of the unit, this black pot can't be moved.
"This kind of work is a rest for me, a very complete rest! Come on, let's see Marx's magic tricks, and if it works, you will treat me to a drink in the evening!" Marx did not hesitate at all, and as he replied, he took out a disc from his bag and shook it at the flood, his expression was like that of a big child who had found a toy, and his smile was blooming from the inside out.
"Wait a minute, I'll arrange O'Connor and Akyol's rooms first, they don't necessarily like these. Jin Yue, don't hide so far, come here, we're a guest. Just because Marx liked to work doesn't mean his two companions liked it too. Hong Tao called Jin Yue over, and then forced her to bring O'Connor and Akyol to the room. Why is it called forced, because she really doesn't go if she is not forced, she comes up with various reasons to prevaricate, to put it bluntly, she is still not used to close contact with foreigners.
Marx's method is not complicated, he first installed a computer as a Windows NT server, and then added a network card, opened the IP routing function in the NT system, set the TCP/IP protocol accordingly, and the intranet of the computer house can be connected to the Internet.
In addition, on this computer as a router, you can control the number of computers that can connect to the Internet at any time by setting a routing table, so that you can let which computer access the Internet if you want to.
But this is easier said than done, mainly because Marx is not familiar with China's Internet setting parameters, but fortunately he has a younger brother who happens to work in China Telecom's Shanghai computer room, and is an Ericsson maintenance engineer.
At this time, it was already more than twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, but this old technical man was really energetic, and he had no intention of going to sleep at all, so he pulled Hong Tao to try the effect himself, sent an email to Germany, and then went upstairs with a depressed face.
Why is he depressed, the reason is very simple, only one of his five emails was sent, and the other four couldn't get out. He couldn't solve this problem because it wasn't a device or software failure, but a lack of bandwidth. Hong Tao's 56K telephone line can still make do with the domestic network, and the foreign network is simply faltering, and it is already green smoke on the ancestral grave that can be sent out.
However, Marx made a suggestion to Hong Tao, he said that Hong Tao can apply for a few more dial-up Internet lines, and then integrate them together through the network card on the router, and the router will automatically distribute the traffic of the line, so that more computers can access the Internet together.
