One day in late July, Zhang Lexing was testing the newly written software in the computer room, when Uncle Zhao suddenly rushed in sweating.

"Good news. Uncle Zhao said breathlessly.

"What's a good thing?" Zhang Lexing looked at Uncle Zhao with a puzzled face, picked up the water cup next to him and handed it over, "Uncle Zhao, sit down and say, let's drink saliva first." ”

Uncle Zhao sat on the chair, gulped a few sips of water, gasped a few times, and slowly calmed down.

"The factory gave us two places to go to training and leave at the beginning of next month. Uncle Zhao put down the water glass and said.

"Training, it's a good thing! It's a good opportunity to recharge, and you can't let it go. Zhang Lexing is actually not very interested in the current training, but after staying in the factory for so long, life is too monotonous, and it is good to have the opportunity to go out for a walk.

"I heard that the training was arranged in Guangzhou, which is quite a long way away. "Uncle Zhao may have never been to such a far place, so he is a little worried.

"Oh, okay, just to see the scenery of the southern country, it's an eye-opener. Zhang Lexing said nonchalantly, he was very familiar with Guangzhou, and he had been working there for five or six years.

Zhang Lexing remembered an important matter, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle Zhao, do you know what the training is about?"

Uncle Zhao scratched his head and thought for a while and said: "Well, I remember what microcomputer applications and programming were written on the list, and some I can't remember clearly, it should also be related to computers, and I heard the people in the factory say that the teacher who gave the lecture was an American!"

"Microcomputer training? American?" Zhang Lexing was very surprised, there should be no environment for microcomputer applications in China at present, how could there still be training classes? Obviously, Uncle Zhao could not understand this question, and after being confused for a while, Zhang Lexing also gave up. Forget it, just go out for a trip at public expense.

……

Time passed day by day, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day before the training. After getting off work in the afternoon, Uncle Zhao took Zhang Lexing to the canteen for dinner, and specially explained a lot of precautions for going out at the dinner table. After dinner, Zhang Lexing returned home and began to pack his luggage for going out. Outside the window, there was the laughter of the children, and occasionally a few shouts of so-and-so going home for dinner, which used to be so familiar, but now they are very far away from Zhang Lexing. In a trance, Zhang Lexing found that he didn't know when he put his hand on the black and white photo frame on the desk, and some liquid seemed to seep out of the corners of his eyes. Zhang Lexing gently wiped the corners of his eyes, took a piece of silk cloth from the side and covered it on the photo frame, and seemed to be in a better mood.

Zhang Lexing moved two chairs to the wardrobe, put up the chairs next to the cabinet, and then climbed up along the chair and got a small suitcase from the top of the wardrobe. After putting the chair back in its place, Zhang Lexing opened the door on the left side of the closet, took a few changes of clothes and a towel and put them in the suitcase, and then went to the cupboard next to the wall to get toothpaste and toothbrush. Covering the box, Zhang Lexing thought for a while, walked to the writing desk and took out a box of floppy disks and a notepad from the drawer and put them in the suitcase, these two things are very important, especially this notepad is his biggest secret, of course, it is better to carry it with him.

After packing up his things, Zhang Lexing was ready to rest the meeting, so he found a chair and sat down, and his mood was a little gloomy. Zhang Lexing got up and took out his drawing board, put it on the writing desk, picked up the pencil and began to draw, hoping that this would calm his mood......

The next day, Zhang Lexing took his suitcase and took Uncle Zhao to catch the green train to Guangzhou. Everything on the train made Zhang Lexing have a very novel feeling, so he couldn't help but look around, and even the fast food in the carton on the train made him look good for a while, of course, these behaviors were just the normal behavior of a child who took the train for the first time in Uncle Zhao's eyes. After a long day of excitement, Zhang Lexing gradually became a little bored, but he soon found new fun in the scenery flying by outside the train. One thing has remained the same for decades, although the food served on the train was disappointing but still palatable, after a few days of nibbling on steamed buns and hard rice on the train, Zhang Lexing and Uncle Zhao came to Yangcheng Guangzhou.

When people were still in the train station, they didn't feel much difference except that there were fewer trains. But as soon as Uncle Zhao walked out of the passenger passage, Zhang Lexing was dumbfounded on the square in front of the station, and his feeling could only be described in five words - it was too different. Not only were there many buses parked in the square that should have been empty, and there was no trace of the elevated road that crossed ahead, and even the small garden in the middle of the street, where there should have been a fountain, was left with only a dozen or so stunted palm trees standing alone. Originally, Zhang Lexing thought that it should be okay to recognize the road based on his previous experience, but he didn't expect the development of Guangzhou to be too fast, so that he could find the shadow of Guangzhou from the memory of Guangzhou in the 90s, and it became an unreliable idea. There was no way, Zhang Lexing had no choice but to brave the scorching sun with Uncle Zhao, looking for and asking questions along the way.

The first time he asked for directions, Uncle Zhao stepped forward without hesitation, found a person who looked like a local on the side of the road, and asked this person in a slightly dialectic northern dialect about how to go to the training, but he was defeated in the other party's bird language in less than a minute. Fortunately, Zhang Lexing had stayed in Guangzhou for five or six years, although he couldn't speak Cantonese well because of the long time, but he could barely understand it, but unfortunately the Mandarin he spoke made the other party very confused. The two sides exchanged guesses for about ten minutes, and Zhang Lexing finally figured it out, and the training point he and Uncle Zhao wanted to go to was about three stops away.

Zhang Lexing and Uncle Zhao walked out for less than a stop, and the sweat on their bodies was already dripping non-stop. After two more stops, the two of them began to look around, but they didn't look like it. Zhang Lexing had no choice but to find a passer-by and start a new round of guessing activities......

After asking for the ninth time, Zhang Lexing and Uncle Zhao finally found the training location, which was in the auditorium of a local university. Uncle Zhao went to sign up first, and Zhang Lexing found a shady place outside to guard his luggage. There didn't seem to be too many people, and Uncle Zhao came out soon not long after he went in.

Seeing Uncle Zhao come out, Zhang Lexing asked curiously, "What's the matter, did you see the Yankees?"

"Not at all, it's all our own. I heard that the lecturer hasn't come yet, so I think I'll be able to see it during the class. Uncle Zhao said: "By the way, I just heard from the person in charge of registration that more than 20 units are going to participate this time. ”

"It seems that they have fooled a lot of people. Zhang Lexing sighed.

"Yes, but the man said just now that it may take three days for these units to arrive, so the formal training will not start until three days later. Uncle Zhao said indignantly.

"Well, it looks like we're going to be roasting here for a few more days. Zhang Lexing said disappointedly.

……

Since it was still early, it was natural to find a place to live first, Uncle Zhao led Zhang Lexing with his luggage and began to look around, there was no way, the words were not easy to understand, and the road was also very unfamiliar, how could the two dare to run too far. After turning around for more than an hour, the two finally found a guest house that seemed to be okay. Uncle Zhao took out the letter of introduction from his bag and handed it to the waiter at the registration office, who took the letter of introduction and looked at it carefully for a while, looking at the two people in front of him while reading. Soon a piece of paper was thrown out, and the waiter said in Cantonese Mandarin: "Register first!"

Uncle Zhao took out the pen and began to fill it in carefully, Zhang Lexing looked at it on the side, there are really many items, what name, alias, former name, gender, place of origin, date of birth, family background, personal composition, reason for coming to the city, who introduced it, and how many days do you need to live...... , see that his head is big.

After more than ten minutes, Uncle Zhao can be regarded as filling out the form. This time it was much faster, as soon as it was handed in, a key flew out immediately, followed by the waiter's Guangpu, "The room is 502, boiling water starts at six o'clock in the evening, and hot water is supplied at seven o'clock......"

After putting away the luggage, Zhang Lexing fell on the bed and wanted to rest, as soon as his body touched the sheets, he immediately sat up at a faster speed, it was too hot, his body was sticky, and it seemed that he didn't want to sleep without taking a bath. Looking at the time, it was still very early at seven o'clock in the evening, but Zhang Lexing's stomach made a protest out of place.

"Lexing, let's go, let's go out and find something to eat!" Uncle Zhao put forward a very attractive proposal, and Zhang Lexing naturally nodded and agreed immediately.

As the saying goes, food is in Guangzhou, Guangzhou people will eat and dare to eat, known as the four-legged ones except for the stool and do not eat anything else, in this atmosphere, Guangzhou has also become a paradise for finding food.

"But it's only 80 years now, can you find the delicious food in your memory?" Zhang Lexing still had a little worry in his heart.

Luckily, I didn't go far from the guest house to see a restaurant, the façade is not big, and there is a sign "Authentic Cantonese Restaurant". It looked good from the outside, and Uncle Zhao took Zhang Lexing and pushed the door and walked in. There are only a dozen tables in the restaurant, and they are almost full. Uncle Zhao and Zhang Lexing found a vacant seat and sat down, and soon a waiter pushed out a cart of small cage drawers, Uncle Zhao was stunned when he saw it, he didn't know any of the things in the cage drawer, and he couldn't figure out whether it was delicious or not. Fortunately, Zhang Lexing was still a little impressed, and picked up some rice rolls, powdered fruits, radish cakes or something, and another person came to a bowl of wonton, which barely filled his stomach.

After solving the problem of food and clothing, Uncle Zhao took Zhang Lexing to walk around the nearby small market, there are quite a lot of things, more abundant than many large shopping malls in the mainland, and some people also mysteriously sell things called imported products, such as small and delicate electronic lighters, plastic electronic watches or something, Uncle Zhao can't help but buy some small things under the encouragement of others, ready to take them back as a souvenir. Zhang Lexing accompanied Uncle Zhao for a while and didn't buy anything, the best and most exquisite things in this market are not as good as the ones he once used, so naturally he lacks interest.

……

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, Zhang Lexing and Uncle Zhao had been in Guangzhou for three days, and the training class had finally started. However, there were only 11 of the more than 20 units originally scheduled, and the staff of the training class did not seem to have been frustrated at all, and they seemed very happy.

Zhang Lexing and Uncle Zhao came very early, and when they walked into the school auditorium, there were only two or three trainees who came to train sitting inside, so they sat down in two seats with a good view from the front and waited for the lecture to start. Soon, the other participants in the training class came one after another, and when they saw that there were empty seats in the front row, they naturally sat forward, and soon the back of the auditorium seemed empty. Seeing that the people were almost here, the staff also began to move things inside, first a large table, and then some electronic devices moved in and put them on the table, but unfortunately they were all covered with cloth, Zhang Lexing couldn't see anything clearly, which really made him very unhappy.

At this time, Zhang Lexing would never have thought that he was about to encounter the biggest turning point in his life.
