Chapter 2 Strange Fortune from Heaven
There wasn't much useful job search information in the newspapers, so it went back to where it was supposed to be. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Chen Lin walked on the path of the park, which is a short road through the labor market, through a forest, it seems relatively quiet, generally except for people who exercise in the morning, there are not many people who usually pass by, plus it has rained in the past two days, and no one comes.
Walking boredly, Chen Lin admired the surrounding scenery by the way, hoping to relieve his depressed mood. Suddenly, Chen Lin came to a tree with some confusion and looked at the things in front of him. A black bag hung from the bent branch, which looked like it had been dropped by a person exercising in the morning.
An inexplicable throbbing flashed in Chen Lin's eyes, he looked left and right, the road was very straight, and there was no one to see at the left and right ends. If you take your bag and run away, no one will find out. However, Chen Lin's mind immediately flashed the picture of working in the restaurant before, and the foreign devil boss's eyes were full of vigilance when he looked at him, as if the yellow race was born a thief in their eyes. Thinking about it, Chen Lin's originally throbbing eyes darkened, he took off his bag, and then sat on the bench on the side of the road.
However, until the evening, no one came to look for the lost property. So, Chen Lin had no choice but to take his bag home.
In the weeks that followed, Chen Lin spent his busy life and finally found a temporary job in a bar, including food, and 20,000 lira (about 400 yuan) a week.
In June, business at the bar began to pick up with the start of the 1992 European Championship in Sweden. Football is always the biggest topic of conversation for Italian pubs. Although he hasn't watched much football in China, Chen Lin graduated from a sports school, although he is a track and field major, but compared to the Chinese people of this era, he knows more about football, and after coming to Europe, the rich football culture here makes him feel it, and occasionally he can watch a game in a bar or on the street, and now, he can also tell the deeds of some famous clubs and some famous stars.
But that's all, for him who is struggling to survive, it is a luxury to talk about anything else.
Late at night, dragging his tiredness, Chen Lin returned to the rented cabin, he didn't even turn on the lights, after all, the electricity bill also costs money, not to mention that he had already planned to go to bed when he came back.
However, when he walked to the side of the bed, he accidentally tripped under his foot and seemed to kick something, and then he remembered that the bag he picked up last time hadn't seen what was inside.
Feel the switch on the wall, turn on the light, lay the bag flat on the table, and take out the contents.
Chen Lin looked at the strange "metal box" in front of him with a puzzled face, Chen Lin, who graduated from sports school, was not very proficient in mechanical things, but he also saw that this was by no means a simple thing. It's thin, lightweight, and folds like a book, and it looks like an enlarged calculator, but the screen is much larger than a monitor. In the end, Chen Lin decided that this should be a computer, because it had a keyboard like other computers, and the company where Chen Lin stayed in the past had several computers, and he and a few fellow villagers had seen it up close. It's just that the monitors of those computers are the size of a basketball, about the size of a 15-inch black-and-white TV, which is as thin and light as the display of this computer.
It seems that this computer should be a more powerful high-end product, Chen Lin thought. He didn't realize how advanced the laptop was compared to today's computers, and for their generation living in the early nineties, it was natural that the moon in a foreign country was rounder than in China.
Under his messy manipulation, the ultra-thin computer in front of him turned on smoothly.
It's just that Chen Lin was dumbfounded again, because unlike the DOS operation interface of the computer he had seen, the computer in front of him entered a system called "windows2030", and Chen Lin didn't know where to start.
So, all night, he competed with the machine, but luckily the next day was Monday, and there were not many people visiting the bar during the day on weekdays, so nothing bothered him at all.
After many experiments, observations, and research, Chen Lin finally figured out the basic functions of the computer, and learned how to use the controller with two buttons and a scroll wheel (ps: it's a mouse, and most computers don't have a mouse at this time).
This made Chen Lin in a state of excitement all night, he kept clicking on the files in the computer, testing what they did, and hoping to find some information left by the computer owner. But there doesn't seem to be anything in the computer except a whole bunch of games. At this time, it was the time when cassette game consoles were popular all over the world, and when he was in China, Chen Lin also went to the homes of classmates with good conditions to play, like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Street Fighter, and Contra...... A group of people played all day, but computer games were his first encounter.
The game icons on the desktop are clicked on one by one, and finally, he enters a game called "FM Football Manager 2032 Platinum Collector's Edition".
Ten minutes later, Chen Lin stood up in a panic and stared at the computer screen in disbelief, then he pulled out the stool and sat down slowly......
Half an hour later, Chen Lin lit a cigarette that he had been reluctant to smoke and stuffed it into his mouth blankly, but his eyes were staring at the computer screen in front of him......
One hour, the cigarette burned between Chen Lin's index and ring fingers, but he was unconscious, until the burning pain made him throw away the cigarette butt in his hand in a panic......
After two hours, Chen Lin's originally blank and incredulous eyes became brighter and brighter, and the expression on his face became more and more excited, and he couldn't help but stand up again and began to circle the room......
The things he knew in the past two hours made Chen Lin feel like an earth-shaking feeling, and he began to torture himself if there was really such an existence as God and God in this world.
Because he just saw the results of the European Cup matches in a column called "Football Centennial" in the game. This column records the development of football in the 100 years from the first World Cup in 1930 to the 24th World Cup in 2030, including the records of various international competitions, the experience of famous players in various countries, the status of leagues and cups in various countries, etc., which can be described as extremely detailed.
Originally, Chen Lin was still moved and laughed, you must know that it is only 1992 now, where did the history of the next 30 years come from? The guy who designed the game is too good at making it up.
But when he opened the record of this European Cup with the mood of exposing him, Chen Lin couldn't laugh anymore.
Group A: Denmark 0-0 England Malmo. Idrot Spratz Stadium, Wednesday, June 10, 1992
Sweden 1-1 France Solna. Stade Lasonda, Thursday, June 11, 1992
Laudrup missed the game, Denmark, who had been selected in place of Yugoslavia at the last minute, drew with England, who were arguably the best team in history, and hosts Sweden almost beat Platini's France, Chen Lin clearly remembers that he only watched these two games yesterday and today.
But it's been more than a month since the package was picked up by myself, and it has never been touched. At this moment, Chen Lin felt that he was either crazy, or someone had made a big joke on him. Looking at the people who scored goals in today's game, they are still not bad at all, and Chen Lin is speechless at this time.
The next day, Chen Lin buried himself in front of this computer, and even took a leave of absence from his work in the bar that night. The content on the computer is so shocking! It can be seen that the original owner of this computer is a fairly standard fan, and his computer not only has football-related games, but also saves various football-related electronic posters and videos.
One of the videos called "Fifty Years of Chinese Football" made Chen Lin indignant and burst into tears, 20 years of "no win in South Korea", 0:7 loss to RB for four consecutive years and even the top ten in Asia could not enter, was ridiculed as "Asian third-rate", but even so, the five-star red flag over Wulihe Stadium still covers the sky, and the shouts of fans are still deafening. "There is no lovelier person than Chinese fans!" This is the ending word of the video, and it is also what Chen Lin wants to say after watching the video.
For a while, Chen Lin had a surge of blood in his heart, and he always felt that he should do something to be worthy of the opportunity given to him by God, and to be worthy of his identity as a descendant of Yan and Huang.
