Together with Yao Xiuqing, Zhou Jiahui and Huang Yong and others, they had lunch in the canteen of Ruifeng Electric, talked about going to the United States recently, and asked Xiuqing and Zhou Jiahui to help take care of it, and with the consent of the two, Lu Xi returned to Xingang.

Sun Mingwei and Su Mei were not there to go out on business, so Lu Xi asked Yang Wenfang to help him and Hong Xuedong book the nearest air ticket, and when he saw her pick up the phone, he asked again: "What's the news in the past two days?" ”

Yang Wenfang held the phone in his hand and turned around and said, "I heard Mr. Sun mention it yesterday, it seems that Yao Libin asked a professional manager to help him." ”

Yao Libin has been eating, drinking and having fun in college for four years, and he has no understanding of business operations and technical aspects, so it is a wise choice to ask professional managers for help after becoming a shareholder quickly. I thought that after Yao Libin bought shares and found professional managers to help, there should be a period of running-in within Xunjie, and there should be no too heartbreaking things for the time being.

Lu Xi smiled and said, "You book a ticket." After speaking, he got up and came out of the administrative department, pushed the door and walked into the technical department opposite.

Hong Xuedong sat near the door, looked up and saw Lu Xi coming in, got up and whispered, "Let's go out and talk." ”

Looking at Hong Xuedong's expression, he knew that he had something to say, Lu Xi turned around, and the two stood in the corridor and smoked a cigarette, Hong Xuedong sighed and said: "I got up early in the morning and received an email from Hou Yantang, he rejected me, and his Internet Express was already preparing to go online." ”

In the previous life, the Internet Express was also launched around the Spring Festival in 99, and Hou Yantang operated independently, independently developed and updated, and became a popular download tool in the world in less than a year.

Now Hou Yantang has solved the most difficult technical problem through the communication with Hong Xuedong, and developed the Internet Express, he wants to do it himself, Lu Xi has no way, after being slightly silent, he said with a smile: "Brother Hong really accidentally cultivated a competitor for himself." ”

Hong Xuedong smiled helplessly and asked, "Should our overseas plans be postponed?" ”

Lu Xi pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know the specific launch time of the Internet Express?" ”

Hong Xuedong shook his head and said: "He only finished it last night, and it still needs time to test, and if you find a technical problem, the time will be postponed indefinitely." ”

Lu Xi was also full of helplessness, and wondered why this guy didn't get fascinated by any games now, and said: "It's just another competitor right now, we can't just overturn the previous plan because the Internet Express is about to be launched, and the overseas plan of the Internet Ants will continue." ”

The news was a bit bad, but it wasn't too bad, because the Internet Express hadn't gone live yet. Seeing Hong Xuedong leaning against the yellowed wall and pinching his brows, after a short period of thought, Lu Xi had his own thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Does Brother Hong plan to work abroad?" ”

Overseas branches can be done by finding an agency, these are simple little things, Lu Xi is not worried that Hong Xuedong will have language barriers, programmer's mathematics and English are the foundation, and Hong Xuedong's development of network ants is the English version, his English level is good, but his spoken language is relatively poor, but Lu Xi believes that he can adapt to it after staying abroad for a while.

Seeing Hong Xuedong's response, Lu Xi said again: "Brother Hong can temporarily suspend his studies at the school, and you can also take one of the company's two programmers, Yu Xin has half a year to graduate, she will stay in China first, and she will be needed in this part of the country, and she will come over to help you when she graduates." ”

After the establishment of Ant Moving Technology Company, Hong Xuedong's team is developing the Chinese version, the earliest English version is not because he admires foreign flattery, mainly because of the single-byte processing method he uses when developing the program, if you want to change to double-byte, you need a lot of modifications, this is not a technical problem, but a huge workload, the operation of the network ants to modify bugs, launch new features, but also to reply to a large number of user emails every day, Yu Xin only occasionally helps, Hong Xuedong does not have much time and energy.

After the establishment of Ant Moving Technology Company, with its own small team, Hong Xuedong has relatively more time, and he is also actively working on the Chinese version, and has the foundation of the English version, and now the Chinese version is close to completion. Hong Xuedong threw the work to others, and is re-developing a new API (application programming interface), using a more efficient block algorithm, in addition to implementing the interface with third-party software, so that the third-party software can add new tasks to the network ants, and the most important thing is to develop supporting websites for the network ants overseas profit plan, these are the focus of the next work, Hong Xuedong has a sense of responsibility, so hard work is to make the network ants have the strength to truly base themselves on the international market.

If you go abroad to work, you have to put down the work in your hand for a while, and you can continue to do it when you settle down abroad, Hong Xuedong didn't want to put down the work in his hand, shook his head and smiled and said: "Of course I hope to work abroad, but not now, I don't know what the function of the Internet Express is, and what advantages it has compared with ants, so I can't put down the work in my hand lightly." ”

Hong Xuedong is the soul of the Internet Ant, and the Internet Ant really can't do without him, if Hong Xuedong goes abroad and is responsible for the overall operation of the overseas company, then he will hardly have time to settle down and continue to write code.

Lu Xi also realized at this time that his idea was too hasty for a while, and if he waited for the Internet ants to fully mature after a year or two, there would be no problem for him to bring it up.

Lu Xi patted his head in distress, except for Hong Xuedong and Hou Yantang, he really couldn't think of anyone who could be qualified for this position, and asked, "Is there a suitable candidate for Brother Hong?" ”

Hong Xuedong spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "I can recommend two technical personnel, there are two netizens who have a good chat recently, they also want to join in, I have tested his technical level, and I am about to tell you about this, you have to find it yourself if you understand both technology and operation." ”

Ant Moving Now in addition to the two shareholders of Hong Xuedong and Yu Xin, there are only two technicians, this small team is really not enough, Hong Xuedong has the right candidate, of course Lu Xi will not refuse, and said with a smile: "Technicians, you can think it is suitable." ”

Lu Xi still has a headache who can be qualified for the position of manager of an overseas company, he can't fly back and forth in the past two places, he has limited time in the past half a year, he has to participate in the high school programming competition in March, the preliminary and semi-finals and the finals take about half a month, and there is a college entrance examination in the middle of the year, even if he has no strong desire to go to college, but in order to achieve his parents' wishes, he has to go hard.

Thinking hard to no avail, Lu Xi decided to try his luck with a headhunting company, although overseas is a branch, but it will play a very important role, the network ant is the most powerful software in China to go abroad, and the network ant will also be a springboard, only this springboard is stronger and bigger, and the next many overseas plans will be less difficult.

Regardless of whether there is a suitable candidate or not, the overseas branch must be set up first, and the plan to go to the United States cannot be stopped, but it must be postponed for a period of time, but the network ant must be launched overseas in advance to strive for the first opportunity.

Several of Lu Xi's friends in the United States are a group of children who have not achieved enough things and have more than enough failures, looking at Hong Xuedong, he asked, "Brother Hong has a trustworthy friend in the United States, right?" ”

The existing version of the network ant is online in the United States, and there is no problem with the technology, Hong Xuedong also agreed with Lu Xi's idea, and said after a moment of silence: "There are two, I'll contact you first, and I'll reply to you later." ”

Lu Xi responded to see Hong Xuedong go back, turned around and went back to the administration department to ask Yang Wenfang to refund the ticket, and then contact the agency to handle the overseas branch first, and then leave for the United States after the company procedures are completed, and then call his father and ask him to apply for the school for his little sister online first.

When he was about to get off work, Hong Xuedong pushed the door in and said with a smile: "I have been contacted, and I will be almost ready within this week." ”

Hong Xuedong is efficient, Lu Xi smiled and stretched out his thumb, and instructed: "Don't use the free servers of some companies and schools, when there are a little more users, it takes up too much bandwidth and puts pressure on their network, and it may kick us out, so that the previous efforts will be in vain, in addition to the server, I also want Brother Hong's friends to help find some colleges and universities to promote it briefly, it is best before we go out, network ants can form a small group of users in American colleges and universities." ”

As long as someone helps, the Internet ants can be launched in the United States before the Internet Express, and if they send some promotional messages on some university forums, it is likely to spread quickly among colleges and universities, seizing the opportunity, and with users, Lu Xi is not afraid of the direct competition of the Internet Express.

I sat in the office for nearly two weeks, and Li Zhijie and others did the last few steps of the voice communication system, and found a few vulnerabilities after testing.

There are two more days of the Spring Festival, the procedures of overseas companies are still being handled, I can't go out a year ago, after quickly taking the investment, there has been no action, and the green bamboo company as a whole is developing steadily, and the voice communication system has been completed just waiting for the launch, Lu Xi plans to return to Lucheng for vacation in advance.

When Sun Mingwei heard that Lu Xi was going back to Lucheng, he went to the technical department to call others out and said, "Did you go with us to buy the car before you went back to Lucheng?" ”

The company now only has a Cadillac, this car is driven out, and other people go out to run errands to crowd the bus and subway, wasting too much time and hard, Xiuqing increased his capital by two million US dollars, although he has to think about using it, but recently Sun Mingwei and Su Mei signed a list, in addition to the monthly expenses, the rest is enough to buy two cheap scooters.

Lu Xi also had plans to buy a car, but he was busy testing the voice communication system for the past few days, and he didn't have time, seeing Sun Mingwei take the initiative to bring it up, he looked at the time and replied: "In the afternoon, you let Guo Shujie prepare the cash first." ”
