Chapter 129: Light Bulbs

(Ask for recommendations!) )

Zhou Yi thought for a while and said: "We took the initiative to contact Mr. Wan and were willing to join Luzhu, but I hope that Mr. Lu can remember what he said today in the future, this is not only my dream, but also the dream of Chinese IT people." ”

Shen Fei continued: "I also hope that Mr. Lu will not break his promise, this is the dream of me and Lao Zhou, and it is also the dream of thousands of people. ”

Listening to two men in their thirties talking about their dreams here, Lu Xi didn't think it was a little ridiculous, on the contrary, he admired them from the bottom of his heart that they could still hold their dreams in their hearts at this age and dare to say it.

Looking at the still serious expressions of the two, Lu Xi smiled slightly: "Microsoft reverse-engineered JS back then, and at the same time used part of Mosaic's source code to develop a different version of the Trident kernel, the two of you should be involved, right?" ”

Seeing the two nodding, Lu Xi said again: "Brian, as a JS developer, his plan is to use gecko developed on the basis of the mosaic kernel for development, I hope the two of you can actively cooperate with his work, and I will give you the opportunity to do more interesting things in the future." ”

Understanding what Lu Xi meant by what he said about more interesting things, Zhou Yi and Shen Fei looked at each other expectantly and smiled, and then Zhou Yi said: "I believe that Mr. Lu also has a dream of being a Chinese IT person, and we hope to go over and start work as soon as possible, but now we have to deal with the things here, and we may have to return to China at the latest, until the end of September at the latest." ”

Zhou Yi and Shen Fei are both senior engineers in the R&D department of Microsoft IE, Lu Xi can't wait, but he also knows that he can't be anxious, and replied: "It will take some time for the R&D center to officially start the project, we are waiting for the arrival of the two, and of course we also hope that the two can bring some people by the way." ”

Lu Xi didn't have some entrepreneurs' lofty shelves, and the words were also funny, the two laughed when they heard it, and Shen Fei said: "Let's try it as much as possible, but Mr. Lu shouldn't have too much hope." ”

The four of them sat in the car and chatted for nearly an hour, and when it was close to working time, Zhou Yi and Shen Fei went back, watching the two leave, Wan Xingnian started the car and asked: "Lu Shao has thought about who will be in charge of the R&D center, right?" ”

Lu Xi replied: "In addition to the browser project in the R&D center, there will be no other projects in the near future, there will not be too many things, for the time being, you will be in charge, and the letter of appointment will be mailed after I return to China." If there is a suitable candidate, we will discuss it again, I will not put pressure on you, but you must also try to coordinate the relationship between the people who come out of Microsoft and the people on the other side of Mozhi, and the R&D center must not have internal contradictions, but you can't dictate their R&D, you must give them enough free space. ”

Wan Xingnian suddenly shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "This job is more difficult than running a company, it is common for the R&D team to have different opinions, Zhou Yi and Shen Fei are both senior engineers at Microsoft, Brian is also a former senior engineer of Netscape and Mozhi, and a developer of JS, who of the three of them will lead the development?" ”

Lu Xi said: "It's not a big deal to have different opinions, you can sit down and study it slowly, didn't I tell them just now, let them cooperate with Brian first, there will be big projects for Zhou Yi and Shen Fei to do in the future, develop their own browser kernel, I don't just talk about it." ”

There are many shareware companies in China, and Ant moved the first to go abroad, and now Luzhu Weixin has also gone abroad, and at the same time it is on the browser project, although it is not the roundworm in Lu Xi's stomach, Wan Xingnian also knows that the whole world is in Lu Xi's plan.

After meeting with Zhou Yi and Shen Fei and sending Wan Xingnian back, Lu Xi rushed to the University of Washington to meet Chen Danying, the school did not open until September 10, but Chen Danying had already moved into a double dormitory in advance.

Driving to the school, Lu Xi called, and stood downstairs in the dormitory where there were not many students during the holidays and waited for Chen Danying to come downstairs.

The white of girls is rare among Caucasians, and they look more delicate than Chen Danying, Lu Xi stared twice, and heard Chen Danying's deliberate light cough, so he smiled and greeted the two.

After Chen Danying introduced the two, she heard a sixteen-year-old girl named Saoirse from Windsor, Canada, say: "Chen, I seem to have seen your boyfriend somewhere." ”

Chen Danying smiled disappreliantly: "You just said that Oriental faces are similar in your eyes." ”

Saoirse shook her head and stared at Lu Xi for a few moments, and said, "I'm sure I've seen him." ”

Lu Xi was sure that he had never seen such a beautiful foreign girl, so he smiled and said, "I have never been to Canada, and this is the second time I have come to Seattle." ”

Chen Danying smiled and didn't ask Saoirse to think hard here, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said to Lu Xi in a pleading tone: "Saoirse is an international student like me, she is a freshman this year, and she only came from Canada today, we are roommates, you take us out for a walk, okay?" ”

I wanted to live a two-person world with Chen Danying, and then go to see the house by the way, but I didn't think that a light bulb would come here at this time, Chen Danying's request Lu Xi couldn't refuse, and said with a wry smile in his heart: "Then let's go to Lake Washington first." ”

When you have an extra light bulb and can only take two people to play, you can see where there are houses for sale by the way.

Riding the new century newly bought by Wanxing Nian, he drove the two of them around Lake Washington for half a day, and it was already evening when they came back. After dinner, Saoirse kept following Chen Danying and didn't mention leaving, Lu Xi had no choice but to take the two back to the hotel.

With Saoirse going to the bathroom, Lu Xi found an opportunity to tell Chen Danying about buying a house.

Chen Danying was stunned for a moment, and said with a red face: "If you buy a house, I won't live with you." ”

Lu Xi took Chen Danying's little hand and sat beside him, and said: "In the next few years, you will have to live here, and I will come here from time to time, I can't stay in a hotel all the time, tomorrow you send Saoirse away, and we will go to Mercer Island to see the house." ”

Saoirse came out of the bathroom at this time, Chen Danying was embarrassed to be too close to Lu Xi in front of outsiders, sat farther away, and said: "You can go and see it yourself, I have a dormitory to live in, and I will take her to familiarize herself with the school environment tomorrow, I have already made an appointment, I can't ......"

At this time, I saw Saoirse in front of the two of them with a small mouth, and said in surprise: "You have taken a photo with Bezos of Amazon!" ”

Lu Xi frowned slightly, the last time he came to the United States, the most prominent was Hong Xuedong, who jumped the Golden Gate Bridge and was banned from entering the country for five years, and he was just after successfully negotiating with Amazon, when he visited Amazon and had dinner with Bezos, the staff took a few photos, I don't know how Saoirse saw the photos.

Saoirse stared at Lu Xi with dark eyes again, and said, "After Amazon acquired the Global Music Alliance, there was a group photo of you on the Internet, I'm sure I'm not mistaken, I also remember that chubby man." ”

Lu Xi only knew that after Amazon acquired the Global Music Alliance, Bezos was interviewed, but he didn't know when he put the photo of them on the Internet, and said with a smile: "If it were me, you wouldn't have seen me so easily." ”

Saoirse looked incredulous.

Lu Xi wanted to be low-key, Chen Danying also wanted to be as low-key as possible, and didn't want people to know that she was the girlfriend of a rich man, so he pulled her to sit down and said with a smile: "You really recognize the wrong person, he is a freshman like you this year, and he still has to rely on his parents to survive." ”

Saoirse still didn't believe it, and said, "You must have been working together to deceive me, I can find the news." ”

Seeing Saoirse go to open his computer, Lu Xi reluctantly glanced at his watch, then pressed the computer and said, "I'll send you back, it's not too early." ”

Knowing that Lu Xi would not stay in Seattle for too long, Chen Danying wanted to stay, but she was embarrassed to let Saoirse go back alone, looked at Lu Xi with a pitiful face, and whispered: "We are roommates." ”

Glancing at the poor Saoirsa, Lu Xi salivated and said in Chinese: "They are more open-minded than us adults at this age, and they won't say anything if you leave her." ”

Chen Danying's face was flushed, and he shook his head delicately and said: "Don't, I'm afraid of kicking you to the ground, let's send us back, wait for you to come next time......" In the end, his tone was as weak as a mosquito.

One was not willing to leave, and the other was unwilling to stay because of a roommate, so Lu Xi could only send both of them back.

Back at the hotel, Lu Xi called Wan Xingnian and asked him to contact the real estate agent and go to see the house tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Wan Xingnian rushed to the hotel, and the two went to meet the real estate agent together, and they were received by Xing Bin, a Chinese agent who had immigrated to the United States for more than 20 years.

Hearing that Lu Xi was going to Mercer Island to buy a house, Xing Bin excitedly called up the information of more than a dozen houses from the computer and introduced them to him one by one.

After all, looking at the pictures and looking at the information, it is not as good as looking at the house on the ground, giving up a few sets of small ones that are not near the lakeshore, Lu Xi sent Wan Xingnian back to work, and asked Xing Bin to bring the key to take him to see the house.

There is a road on the island, but the seven houses that Lu Xi intends to have are all near the lake, and he doesn't want to drive around, so the two of them went to the lakeside pier to rent a speedboat.

Everyone on the lakeshore has a wharf, and after a morning, after reading the seven houses, Lu Xi was a little undecided, he was very satisfied with the seven houses, and the prices were within his acceptable range.

didn't know how to choose, so Lu Xi asked Xing Bin to sort out all the seven house listings he had seen, and prepared to let Chen Danying, the future hostess, choose.

After lunch, he went to the bank with Xing Bin to open a certificate of deposit, called Chen Danying, and learned that Saoirse's light bulb was taking a nap, so Lu Xi rushed to the University of Washington to call Chen Danying down.

The two sat in the car, Lu Xi handed over the housing information, reached out and gently pinched Chen Danying's face, and said with a smile: "You pick a set, this house will be your dowry." ”

Chen Danying's face was pink, her watery eyes were blinking, and she said coquettishly: "Don't be ashamed, who said I was going to marry you?" ”
