Chapter 67: Dark Cool
This is the difference caused by different eras.
After 2010, a random aunt on the street may be a typing master with ten fingers flying, and from 96 to the beginning of 2000, a typist who can type out 70 words per minute is considered the treasure of each unit.
"Brother, do you know how to type in five strokes? I see you are typing the English alphabet quite happily. A man with unkempt hair and a bit of an artistic youth asked Xiao Fei, with a look of disdain on his face.
Probably he thinks that Xiao Fei is suspected of pretending.
At this time, those who can afford to play in the computer room will not have a bad family background, and their education level is quite high.
That's $10 an hour...... Who is willing to be so extravagant for the children of ordinary families?
It can be seen that several young men in this computer room are from very good backgrounds, and they are wearing famous brands such as Adi and Nike.
The reason why this artistic young man asked Xiao Fei so much is because Wubi typing was once considered to be the most high-end input method.
It is said that with perfect practice, you can type up to nearly 200 words per minute with five strokes.
But the five-stroke input method needs to memorize the roots, so many roots to memorize, very boring; After memorizing the root of the word, you must be familiar with the keyboard and practice diligently; After practicing proficiency, you can learn the so-called one, two, and three shortcodes to speed up...... That level of difficulty, that level of complexity, is daunting to many people.
This is one of the reasons why typists in this era are so tall.
Wubi typing Xiao Fei learned it when he was in college, and he also practiced hard for a while, and at that time, he could type about 30 words a minute, which was barely qualified.
But who would have thought that the subsequent pinyin typing method would develop so quickly.
First of all, it is full spelling,Then it is intelligent ABC,And then,Sogou Pinyin, which is incomparably powerful, debuted,It is to use the pinyin input method,Playing proficiently,Entering more than 100 words per minute is also like playingγ
This is also the root of the decline of Wubi in later generations.
It can be said that a Sogou Pinyin has ruined an industry.
The profession of a typist has just risen like the rising sun and then quickly declined, and it is difficult to see the light of day again.
Five inputs?
It's been a long time.
Xiao Fei thought about it for a while, and all the roots and the location of the keyboard where they were located were clearly presented in his mind, including the most difficult words to decipher.
"A little." Xiao Fei smiled and said to the long-haired young man.
"Huh!" The long-haired young man smiled, very disdainful, "Then you can type the words on this piece of paper and take a look?" He placed a piece of paper full of words on the table.
Xiao Fei glanced at it.
The top of it are the most difficult Chinese characters to decompose.
It seems that this long-haired young man should have been practicing five strokes recently.
Xiao Fei looked at the software on the computer and found that WPS was installed on the computer, so he opened it, and while looking at the paper, he began to crack the keyboard without looking at the keyboard.
As he tapped, Chinese characters that were difficult to detach appeared in the document.
"Ahh Blind typing! β
"He can beat blindly!"
"Oh my God! This typing speed is really fast, and it seems that there is no problem with typing seventy or eighty words a minute. β
The long-haired young man, his friends, and the girl in the computer room all looked straight in the eye and screamed.
They originally suspected that Xiao Fei was typing the keyboard indiscriminately, so they were a little angry and wanted to embarrass Xiao Fei, but they didn't expect that the other party was really a computer master.
Xiao Fei smiled faintly and stopped.
"Brother, it's really good, how long have you been practicing? Any tricks? The long-haired young man immediately changed his attitude, and looked a little shameless to ask.
"There's no trick to practicing this, just remember more and practice more." Xiao Fei nodded at him.
Xiao Fei spent more than an hour in this computer room and felt a little bored.
Surfing the internet is too expensive.
It's just playing on the computer, but there's really nothing to play, there are a few games in the computer, like Red Alert, Interstellar or something, but Xiao Fei is not interested in it.
He settled the bill and walked out.
He vaguely remembered that there was a bookstore on Jiefang Road, so he walked over to read a book in that bookstore. There are several books by Dai Houying for sale on the shelves.
He thought about it, and put "O Man, Man! "The Death of a Poet", "The Footnote in the Valley", and "The Past is Unforgettable" were all bought.
Xiao Fei has read these novels in his previous life.
I've been pretending to be in my head so far, and it's not a problem to memorize it backwards.
The reason why he still wants to buy it is that he plans to bring it to Shanghai and let Dai Houying sign it, as a brainless fan, how can he have a few signed books, right?
When I came out of the bookstore, it was already past 6 o'clock.
Xiao Fei ate a bowl of beef ramen near the train station for dinner, a large bowl of noodles, and two slices of fatty meat, but it was only 1 yuan and 5 cents.
After eating, he went to the store and bought some biscuits, ham sausages, bread and water, and planned to take them on the train to eat.
From X city to Shanghai, more than 1,300 kilometers of road.
In 1996, the domestic train had not yet been accelerated, the average speed was less than 50 kilometers per hour, and the slowest car was only more than 30 kilometers.
This is also the main reason why Xiao Fei left for Shanghai 4 or 5 days in advance.
Finally made it to 8 o'clock in the evening, Xiao flew into the waiting room and boarded the train smoothly.
It was during the summer vacation, and there were still a lot of people on the train.
This train is an air-conditioned express and has a higher fare, so most of the passengers on the bus are business travelers, students, and people who are traveling.
Sitting with Xiao Fei were a few young people.
Looking at their appearance, Xiao Fei felt that they were most likely college students.
Three men and two women.
The two girls sat diagonally opposite Xiao Fei.
After the train ran smoothly, these people all took out books to read, nothing more than some youth digests, readers, bosom friends, family magazines and so on.
Xiao Fei glanced at it, and the two girls were holding a copy of Youth Digest to see that it was the latest issue 8.
The boy opposite Xiao Fei was holding the latest issue of Bosom Friend magazine.
The two boys in the same row as Xiao Fei are looking at the readers, and the other is looking at the family.
It's a long road.
The night is getting darker.
Xiao Fei wanted to close his eyes and recuperate for a while.
But at this moment, the boy sitting opposite him whispered, "Ah! It's a really well-written story, it's so poignant. β
The boy's words attracted the attention of the two girls next to them.
They asked, "Which story?" What's the main content? β
The boy said: "The name of the article is "Crush is like a Wound", it is about a kind girl who has a crush on a boy, and the boy likes the girl's best friend, a beautiful and proud girl......"
actually said the one he posted, Xiao Fei pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation between the three.
The girl sitting in the middle listened to what the boy had to say, "It is indeed a beautiful and sad story, who is the author?" β
In these years, the article is good, and by the way, it is people's inertia to understand the author.
Unlike later generations, the egg tastes good, but no one wants to know that it was laid by the chicken.
"The author's name is Xiao Fei." Said the boy opposite.
The girl in the middle cried out in surprise: "I just saw an article in Youth Digest, and the signature is Xiao Fei!" It can't be the same person, right? β
A boy next to Xiao Fei also shouted: "There is also a manuscript written by Xiao Fei in the family, which is also very good." β
These people began to discuss the articles written by Xiao Fei, especially on the attitude towards the chicken soup text.
Xiao Fei was silent beside him, but he was very happy in his heart for a while, he thought, discussions like this are happening on countless occasions in China, right?
