At Baiyun Airport, Lin Hong called Gu Wei as soon as he got off the plane, because according to the time, the other party should have arrived before him, and the phone was quickly connected. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Viagra, I'm here, where are you now?"

"You go straight to the airport exit, I'll wait for you at exit five."

After a while, Lin Hong saw Gu Wei, compared to before, the current Gu Wei looked more mature, and his body was also a little fat, and he became a little fatter.

"Lin Hong! Long time no see, haha! ”

Gu Wei held Lin Hong's hand tightly and changed it a few times.

"Okay, I don't see it, viagra, you've gained a lot of weight." Lin Hong said with a smile.

"Yes, I have been exercising very little, and my weight has come up without knowing the layout. Oops, it's been almost six years since the last separation, and you've risen so high, you're even a head taller than me. ”

The two exchanged pleasantries for a while, so they found a café nearby to sit and have a good chat first.

"Viagra, due to personal reasons, I have changed my name now, my name is Lin Jiang, you can call me by this name directly in the future."

"Okay. Then I will call you Lin Jiang from now on. Gu Wei didn't ask much, and nodded directly.

The consultant talked about some of the things that had happened to him over the years, and in his words, he was very grateful to Lin Hong, because if Lin Hong hadn't reminded him, he might still be the owner of a small studio, and he would not have been a millionaire like he is now.

After Lin Hong heard his experience, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, he didn't expect that this Gu Wei seemed to be very timid at the beginning, and later did some "earth-shattering" things when he was a fallen master in the Soviet Union. He exchanged China's light industrial products and fruits and vegetarian dishes, and Lao Maozi for a lot of military equipment, even including airplanes and artillery, and made a lot of money.

Of course, these things were sold directly to the domestic army, so he also established a fairly good network of relationships in the country, and now he is not afraid that a random person can force him to leave the capital like before.

Gu Wei now has a company in the capital, selling both game software and game consoles, combining software and hardware. At present, he is starting to focus on PC games again, because he sees the rise of PC machines.

It seems that he still has a soft spot for games and can't let go of this plot.

"Lin Jiang, when did you return to China? I met Sun Wu more than two months ago, and he said at the time that you haven't come back yet. ”

"I just came back, and it's only been a month. Now I have started a company with two friends, and I plan to do a computer business, which is what I told you before, PC compatible machine assembly. ”

"I've actually considered this part as well, but it's not developed yet, and only some computer enthusiasts are building it themselves. At present, it is still the brand machine in charge, even those foreign brands have begun to decline, and now the boss in the field of PC is Lenovo, according to their performance data this year, it should be firmly on the throne of the first PC sales. Do you feel that the assembly opportunity is developing? ”

Gu Wei himself is a technician, and he combines software and hardware, so he naturally pays great attention to these things. Although he is also a little optimistic about the development of the assembly machine in private, he still has no score in his heart after all. Now that the development of brand machines is in full swing, how to compete with them with assembly machines?

"It is inevitable that the assembly machine will develop." Lin Hong has long had an in-depth understanding of this area, "Of course, the beneficiaries of this trend will be those hardware wholesalers in the computer market." What I want to do at the moment is just an initial plan, and the road I want to take in the future must be branding. ”

For Gu Wei, Lin Hong has no reservations, he can see that Gu Wei's main mind is still on the game, and he is not afraid that the other party will hear his words and compete with him on a whim, in his opinion, competition must be inevitable, after all, not everyone can succeed in one thing.

The consultant nodded when he heard this, he also felt strange before, to make an assembly machine, unless it is a manufacturer, anyone can do it, if Lin Hong and they keep doing this, it will be too easy for others to compete, just assemble it directly according to the configuration.

"Now the field of PC is still a profiteering industry, although under the leadership of Lenovo, the brand machine has been from more than 10,000 to 20,000 levels, has dropped to about 10,000 yuan, but the profit margin is still very large. That's our chance. ”

Lin Hong has been abroad for so long, so he naturally knows how profitable the domestic PC field is. In the past, selling a computer could make a profit of about 10,000 yuan, which was real violence. As a result, Lenovo has cut prices seven times in a row in the past two years, sounding the horn of "10,000 yuan galloping", directly driving the former boss AST out of the Chinese market and sitting on the top spot.

Now, Lin Hong wants to carry out the price reduction action of PC computers more thoroughly, so that computers can eliminate violence and enter ordinary families, so as to indirectly promote the popularization and development of domestic computers.

Gu Wei also saw his ambition from Lin Hong's words, and couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that you want to bring another bloody storm to the domestic PC sales field!" But I definitely support you, the price of computers is really too expensive now. By the way, how much is the registered capital of your company? ”

"The registered capital is currently one million."

"A million?" Gu Wei pondered for a moment, "It's a little less." IMHO, while a million may seem like a lot now, you know that. The price of computers is also very high nowadays, and this amount of money is worth about 100 computers at most. Doing hardware business, especially so, because there must be inventory, and the price of accessories is not low now, Intel's CPU, a piece costs thousands of yuan. ”

Lin Hong nodded, what he said made a lot of sense.

Because when he first started, he planned to start small, after all, they were just starting out, and they were not very familiar with this part, and they didn't even have a clue about suppliers at first.

"Several of my friends are the general agents of major computer accessories manufacturers in China, and the registered capital is a little less, so if you are short of money, I can invest, what do you think? I'm optimistic about you! ”

Gu Wei's meaning is obvious, he is not optimistic about their company, but Lin Hong.

Of course, he said this mainly because he didn't know Lin Hong's current worth, and if he knew, he would definitely be embarrassed to say it.

"There is no shortage of money, and there are no plans to raise funds at the moment. If we decide to raise money, we will be the first to find you, a rich man. Lin Hong smiled and declined his kindness.

Seeing this, Gu Wei didn't say anything more.

Then, Lin Hong talked to him about the future development trend of the Internet, and introduced some of the things and ideas he saw abroad.

"The domestic part is too backward at present, and the Internet is even closer to being barren, I have been looking for a long time in China, but I didn't find a BBS." Lin Hong sighed.

"It is true that the domestic Internet field is indeed a barren, because as far as I know, I know that China's national backbone network was officially opened in January this year, and it has only been a few months. But you're wrong when you say that you don't have BBS. Gu Wei shook his head, "Actually, domestic BBS has been developed for many years, and it can be traced back to 91 at the earliest. ”

"Oh?" Lin Hong couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, "In 1991? Didn't China have the Internet at that time? ”

"You don't necessarily need a network to set up a BBS." Gu Wei smiled, "I remember you are ham, right?" ”

"Yes."

"The first to play BBS were all domestic hams. I don't know if you've heard of the FIDO Network? ”

Lin Hong shook his head.

"It seems that you have a disconnect with domestic ham in this regard, of course, it has something to do with the fact that you have been abroad for a few years. In fact, the FIDO network has really started to catch on in the last two or three years. ”

Then, Gu Wei gave Lin Hong a detailed introduction to China's FIDO network, that is, CFIDO.

CFIDO is a BBS network connected by telephone lines, and the networks transmit letters to each other in a point-to-point manner.

There is a big difference between CFIDO and Lin Hong's familiar TCP/IP protocol-based Internet, which is an alternative communication network built by Chinese technology enthusiasts (mainly HAM) before the opening of the Chinese Internet, which is an unofficial, amateur network, as if it were an amateur radio network.

CFIDO's history can be traced back to 1991, when Roy, a Taiwanese who settled in the capital, opened the Great Wall Station, which was FIDO's first station in the mainland. He was recognized as the first CFIDO in China and later served as the first General Coordinator of CFIDO China.

In November 1992, the "Great Wall" station built by Luo Yi in the capital and the "hand-in-hand" station established by Huang Yaohao became the earliest BBS exchange system established in China according to the FIDO network system, thus forming CFIDO.

"CFIDO uses telix dialers, based on the Zmodem protocol. Use the Blue Wave Express system to classify, filter, compress, package and transmit selected letters to save transmission time, and also edit and read offline to save phone bills. As a technician, Gu Wei is very clear about these technical details,"

"Most of the sites are based on a dial-up system of up to 28.8/33.6kbps, because at this time, 56kbps is an asymmetric protocol that requires cooperation with the telecommunications bureau to set up servers. You also know that these departments are uncles, and even if you have money, they may not necessarily provide services for you. ”

This kind of network, which is modified from the BBS system, is also based on a character interface, uses a lot of ASCII character graphics, and uses a modem for dialing, but it has some features that are very suitable for China's national conditions - cheap.

"Although it is said that after the opening of the Internet, the BBS function in foreign countries is more convenient than CFIDO's BBS, but at present, it seems that it is impossible to replace the FIDO network for the time being. For example, when I dial up in the capital, the cost of logging into the Internet is 20 yuan an hour, and with the addition of local phone charges, I have to pay more than 25 yuan per hour. However, logging in to CFIDO only requires local phone bills, which is quite a big difference for a heavy user like me. In addition, CFIDO can also be used for offline reading, saving time on the Internet. ”

After listening to his introduction, Lin Hong knew that there had long been an alternative network to the Internet in China, and what was even more ingenious was that the establishment of such a BBS did not need to use the private network service of telecommunications at all, but only needed to open telephone service.
