Chapter 6: The Phantom of Friendship
In an office in a building in Beijing, Wang Bin sat at his desk, holding a pen and writing on the manuscript paper spread on the table, unaware of the chill that seeped in through the unclosed window. A girl with a ponytail knocked on the open door, and when she heard the sound, Wang Bin put down her pen and raised her head.
"Wang Bin, are you working overtime to write a report again?" the girl asked.
"Yes, I don't have time during the day, so I have to come and be busy at night. By the way, you are familiar with the personnel information, I have the information of three people, can you help me check it?"
"Is this a business or a private matter for you?"
"I'm not sure yet, I need to understand the situation first. ”
"Well, if you're looking for something that's not classified, I can help you find it. But remember, you owe me a favor this time!"
"Okay, well, I'll definitely remember it, and I'll treat you to dinner another day. Well, the one I'm looking for is Yan Yuanchao, who participated in the design of the Great Wall 0520CH. The second is Wu Xiaojun, who designed the 2.13 Chinese character system, and is now in a chemical factory in Beijing. The third is Zhou Zhinong, who works at a research institute and is responsible for the design of the Chinese character operating system. Here's a record I made, you can take a look. Wang Bin took out a pre-written note and handed it over.
"Wait a minute, I'll look for it first. The girl took the note and looked at it, then turned and left the office.
……
The next morning, Zhang Lexing called Dr. Shangyu downstairs to have breakfast together. When they came to the restaurant, they happened to see Lai Bingrong and Wu Guofa also there, and after greeting each other, Zhang Lexing and Dr. Yu chose an early meal, and then found an empty table to sit down and start work. When Zhang Lexing was eating, he caught a glimpse of Wang Bin appearing at the door of the restaurant, and hurriedly waved at him.
"Dr. Yu, Mr. Zhang, good morning!" Wang Bin walked quickly to the table to say hello, and then sat down.
Dr. Yu was stuffing something in his mouth, and he didn't speak, but nodded his head to say hello. Zhang Lexing also nodded, but found that he hadn't seen him all night, and Wang Bin looked a little haggard.
"Wang Bin, didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Oh, I read some information and slept a little late, but it's okay, it won't matter. ”
……
After breakfast, Dr. Yu, Lai Bingrong, Wu Guofa and others went to attend the microcomputer donation ceremony, while Zhang Lexing took Wang Bin's car to the patent office.
"It's okay to drive if you haven't slept well, right?" Seeing Wang Bin's somewhat pale face, Zhang Lexing couldn't help but ask again.
"It's fine, no problem driving at all. Wang Bin patted his chest and reassured.
After walking for more than half an hour, Wang Bin's car drove into the gate of the patent office. As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Lexing saw a young man standing in front of the office building waiting from the car window, and waved his hand when he saw Wang Bin's car.
"Is that your classmate?" asked Zhang Lexing with a finger.
Wang Bin glanced at it, nodded and said, "Yes, my classmate's name is Song Tian, he has been working in the patent office for several years, and he is very familiar with the process of applying for patents. ”
Accompanied by Song Tian, Zhang Lexing, a rookie who applied for a patent, filled out a lot of forms, and attached the technical information of the FC game console hardware prepared in advance, and was busy for almost a morning, and finally completed the application for the FC game console-related patents, according to Song Tian, the next only need to go home and wait quietly, but the waiting time is relatively long, generally about a year. In order to grasp the news in time, Zhang Lexing also specially asked for Song Tian's office phone, after all, the Beijing office of VisualSystem Company has not yet been seen, and it is impossible to ask others to call across the ocean to inform.
Maybe it was because the old classmates were in high interest in meeting, Song Tian seemed very enthusiastic, and when he saw that it was almost noon after finishing his errands, he insisted that Zhang Lexing and Wang Bin had lunch together. Zhang Lexing once again saw the long-standing wine table culture of the motherland, although there were only three people, but under Zhang Luo of Song Tian, he ate for more than three hours, and the main thing in this was that the wine played a role. Zhang Lexing didn't want to drink too much wine, but under the tacit understanding of Wang Bin and Song Tian, he didn't hold it in the end, and he was already a little dizzy when he came out of the hotel. After the meal, Zhang Lexing was about to go back to the hotel first, but Wang Bin enthusiastically introduced the hutongs of Beijing, and also got a rickshaw very magically. Beijing's hutongs, Zhang Lexing has never had the opportunity to experience, anyway, there is nothing too important to go back, so he agreed, and under the leadership of a ban'er who is full of Beijing films, he started a unique Hutong tour.
At the same time, the floor where Zhang Lexing's room is located in the Friendship Hotel ......
A waiter-like woman dragged cleaning tools down the corridor outside the room on the sixth floor, still paying attention to the movements in the surrounding rooms from time to time. When she came to the door of room 608 where Zhang Lexing lived, the woman knocked on the door and said, "Sir, clean up." ”
After knocking on the door a few times, the woman put her ear to the door and listened carefully, then took out a bunch of keys from her pocket and opened the door of 608. The woman picked up a mop and walked into the room, and within a minute, she reappeared at the door of 608. The woman took out a walkie-talkie-like device from a plastic bag mixed with cleaning tools, adjusted the knob on it, and then carefully tapped it regularly with her hands several times.
At this time, the door of the passage on the floor suddenly opened, and three young people, two men and one woman, blew through the corridor like the wind and entered room 608, and the door was also closed smoothly. The woman outside the room put away the equipment and turned into an ordinary waiter again, she opened the empty room next to her, connected the vacuum cleaner, and began to pretend to clean up, and the huge roar instantly annihilated the movement in room 608.
……
Ban'erye's eloquence is very good, and he has been up and down for 5,000 years, and he has been talking wildly, which makes Zhang Lexing almost unhappy. By the time I got back to the Friendship Hotel, it was already time for dinner.
"Mr. Zhang, let's go to the restaurant for dinner first. Wang Bin greeted politely.
"Wait a minute, I'll go up and change my clothes first. Maybe because of the alcohol, Zhang Lexing felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to go back to the room to take a shower first.
"Okay, do you want me to help you set dinner first?"
"No, I'll be down in a moment. ”
Coming to the sixth floor, Zhang Lexing walked along the corridor to his room, and when he turned the corner, he passed by two couple-like men and women, Zhang Lexing habitually looked back, and the two seemed to be very ordinary. Continuing to move forward, Zhang Lexing came to 608 and opened the door, he found that the room seemed to have been cleaned, and the room looked very tidy, but it seemed that the cleaning staff was very careful, and the items placed in the room remained in place and did not seem to have moved. A gust of wind blew, and the floor-to-ceiling curtains fluttered gently in the wind, and it seemed that the careful cleaning staff had missed something. Zhang Lexing was about to go over and close the floor-to-ceiling windows, when a shout came from behind him.
"Mr. Zhang, there is something I forgot to tell you just now. ”
Zhang Lexing looked back and saw that it was Wang Bin, so he turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Well, the three people you mentioned yesterday, I would like to ask if there is any more detailed information, so that it may be faster to find. ”
"No, I told you all the day I knew. ”
"Okay then, I'll ask someone to help me find it, and I'll tell you when there's news, I'll go down first." ”
Zhang Lexing nodded, turned around and was about to close the window, but found that the floor-to-ceiling window had been closed. Maybe it's the wind blowing, Zhang Lexing muttered in his heart.
After taking a shower, Zhang Lexing returned to the restaurant downstairs again. Wang Bin was making a phone call in a corner of the restaurant, speaking in a very small voice, and when Zhang Lexing passed by, he only vaguely heard the words "no problem".
Zhang Lexing found a table and sat down, and was about to order, but found that Dr. Yu, Lai Bingrong, Wu Guofa and others also appeared in the restaurant.
"Dr. Yu, it's going well today. ”
"It's okay, it's just that the meeting is too long, we thought that we would simply say two words, hand over the microcomputer and be done, but we didn't expect ......"
"Dr. Yu, can you elaborate?"
Dr. Yu began to fall into reminiscences: "Here's how it ......"
Donation site ......
The media industry in China is far less developed than that in the United States, but due to the attention of relevant leaders, media such as People's Daily, Guangming Daily, and Beijing Youth Daily still came to the scene for interviews, and even a camera team from CCTV. In addition to Deputy Director He of the State Education Commission, there were also secretaries and directors of many departments, and of course representatives of the two universities were also indispensable.
At the donation ceremony, Deputy Director He gave a speech, reviewing the previous support of overseas Chinese to the country, and thanking the three companies for their generosity to China's education. Then, Dr. Yu, Lai Bingrong, and Wu Guofa respectively expressed their prospects for the development of China's computer industry on behalf of their respective companies, expressed their importance to the Chinese market, and then talked about their expectations for the motherland and their thoughts on supporting the construction of the motherland from the perspective of overseas Chinese.
Dr. Yu originally thought that this would be fine, but he didn't expect the secretaries and directors of various departments to speak one after another, and by the end of the school representatives, it was already afternoon (of course, a working meal was arranged at noon), and Dr. Yu, Lai Bingrong, Wu Guofa and others sat down one by one with a sore back. I finally persevered until I handed over the microcomputer to the school representative, and I couldn't stand it anymore, so I hurriedly took the car back to rest, and by the time it was time for dinner, I hadn't slowed down.
In the end, Dr. Yu sighed that the conference in China is really an exercise.
"Doctor, don't worry, this is the time, I won't ask you to attend this kind of meeting again, I don't want to lose such an important partner as you because of the meeting. Zhang Lexing smiled and said.
……
Two days later, when Zhang Lexing was having breakfast in the restaurant, he met Wang Bin again, and this time he brought good news.
"Mr. Zhang, the people you said have been found, when are you going to visit, I will drive you. Wang Bin took out a piece of paper and handed it to me.
Unexpectedly, Wang Bin's efficiency is quite high, and he has already found someone in just three days, Zhang Lexing said happily: "Thank you." ”
The information Wang Bin brought was very simple, only a simple personal introduction and his current unit, but these were enough, and compared with his memory, Zhang Lexing knew that he should not have found the wrong person.
Because Wang Bin needed to accompany Zhang Lexing to go out to find someone, a new liaison was temporarily arranged, a girl named Chu Jing, wearing a yellow dress, combing a beautiful ponytail, and her eyes were crooked like the moon in the sky when she smiled.
