Chapter 47: Wu Yi's Road
On the evening of July 13, 2001, the night of the Olympic bid, the whole country was waiting for news from Moscow.
On the TV screen, every Chinese sitting on the scene waiting for the results was extremely expectant and apprehensive. No matter how deeply involved those who participate in the Olympic bid, I am afraid that they cannot be 100% sure that China will succeed.
But Wu Yineng.
Approaching 22 o'clock, looking at the people on TV who were holding their breath and quiet, clenching their hands into fists, and looking nervous, Wu Yi suddenly thought curiously, will there be anyone like himself who already knows the result?
With the export of the unique pronunciation of xx "yanjing", China is boiling.
At the broadcast sites everywhere, people screamed and jumped, cried and laughed, and couldn't help themselves.
Everyone in the camera shows happiness and pride from the bottom of their hearts. The people driving on the road honked their horns one after another, but even if it was so late, no one blamed them, but felt very appropriate and energetic.
The cheers under the China Millennium Monument in Yanjing were overwhelming, and the celebration reached a climax with the appearance of national leaders at the China Millennium Monument.
Although he had seen these videos in his previous life, and more than once, Wu Yi couldn't help but be excited after experiencing it again.
This night, lying in bed, Wu Yi thought about a lot of things.
On July 15, Wu Yi went to the school to submit his application for the examination. The parents didn't know much about the good or bad of college, and generally respected their son's opinion. Especially after they inquired with their friends and colleagues about the strict school style and strict management of Eastern Sen University, they agreed with their son's choice very much.
Because the school had already notified that the graduation photos would be taken on the 15th, the students who could come basically came, and Wu Yi met Cheng Qing.
After chatting briefly for a while, Wu Yi knew that Cheng Qing had an estimated score of 405 and volunteered to apply for the cabin crew major of Civil Aviation University of China.
"You're going to be a flight attendant?" Wu Yi didn't expect Cheng Qing's choice.
"Well, it's been planned for a long time. I went for a physical examination and interview in April. Cheng Qing looked at the sky in the distance, "I heard that you did well in the exam this time, and you have taken the last one." ”
"Almost!"
"Thank you for taking me out of the exam room and finding my dad." Cheng Qing looked at Wu Yi's cheek, "Is your T-shirt still there?" ”
"Washed!" Wu Yi made a movement of rubbing his clothes and said with a smile.
After taking graduation photos together, good classmates took pictures together.
Wu Yi, Zhou Hang, Cheng Qing, and Guo Dong each took a few photos.
Zhou Hang's People's University. After seeing Zhou Hang's volunteer form, Wu Yi remembered that Zhou Hang's previous admission was to Renmin University.
The long holiday has begun.
After having a few meals with his classmates, Wu Yi packed up his things and went to the fifth uncle's house in the countryside.
Bian Dad's generation has five brothers, and Bian Dad is the fourth.
The Bian family has a family tree, Wu Yi's generation uses the word "learning" in the middle of the name, after the first boy was born, the uncle suggested using "benevolence, righteousness and morality" to name it, Wu Yi ranked third, so he took his turn to the word "Dao".
The fifth uncle's house is 20 kilometers away from the city.
Li Duoyi, the only son of the fifth uncle, is not a material for reading, and he went out to learn to repair cars after finishing junior high school.
In the past two years, the fifth uncle contracted a hill to plant fruit trees, and the living conditions of the family gradually improved.
Wu Yi went to the orchard of the fifth uncle's house. He remembered that on that hill, there was a wooden house that tended to the orchard, and Wu Yi now needed a quiet, undisturbed place to sort out his thoughts.
The fifth uncle's orchard was mainly planted with plums and hawthorns, and the fifth uncle and five aunts asked Wu Yi to go to see the garden during the day. Wu Yi lived in the fifth uncle's house for half a month, going out every morning, staying in the mountains for a day, and going back in the evening.
Wu Yi carried a bag with him, a notebook, a pen and a walkman, a few tapes, and a lot of batteries.
In a wooden hut on the mountain, he watched the clouds and listened to the rain, wrote down whatever came to mind, and then wrote it down in a notebook in a unique way of recording. I remembered the songs I often listened to and often sang on KTV, so I sang them, and some of the songs in my memory had not appeared at this time, so he separated the words and songs, wrote down the words, and hummed the melody and recorded it with a Walkman.
After tossing for a few days, I wrote down more than 10 songs, including Jay Chou's, Shinedown, and some songs with relatively high domestic popularity.
Realistically speaking, Wu Yi is a small citizen, a layman, and after being reborn, his greatest wish is to make himself and the people around him live a better life.
He didn't want to live the days of 250+ night shifts, 365 days a year; He doesn't want to live the days when he is trapped in a mortgage or car loan, and he is reluctant to take his family out to travel after working for a whole year; He didn't want to live the days of staring at all kinds of "treasures" on the Internet to see which interest rate was high and quickly transferring funds. He wants to make money, make a lot of money, he wants to be rich, preferably the kind of money that is put in the bank with the principal and the interest is enough for him to spend a year.
At this time, Wu Yi was full of thoughts about how to make money, and he felt that only when he was rich could he have a free and chic life.
He tried hard to think of ideas that could pan for gold and start a business, and thought of some, but they were overturned one by one, for the simple reason that he had no funds and he needed the first pot of gold.
Wu Yi has a relatively clear understanding of his talents, he has a little research spirit, a little tenacity, but also a little lazy, saying that it sounds good is a little rich and peaceful, and if it is bad, it is not ambitious, and in his previous life, he has been working in a newspaper since he graduated, and he has seen a lot, and he has no experience in entrepreneurship at all. He knows that success in the world is not as easy and easy as written in reports and autobiographies.
It's like, Wu Yi knows that Taobao was only founded in 2003, but he can't play e-commerce, he is not Ma Yun. Wu Yi knew that Qihoo 360 would not appear until 2005, but he was not Zhou Hongyi, and he knew nothing about the success of antivirus and 360 except for the free strategy. He knows that smart touch screen phones will dominate the mobile phone market, but he is not Jobs or Lei Jun, he knows that he will definitely not be able to play that thing, he is not that material.
What Wu Yi is capable of is selling concepts, but does anyone believe it? Does anyone buy it? Is it worth the money? If someone really believes, what will happen?
Wu Yi carefully combed through his previous life experience and the information he had, thinking about it over and over again. He is looking for a way for himself, a way to make money quickly, with low threshold, low risk and low cost. After spending more than 10 days in the mountains, I finally have a little eyebrows.
Walking out of the wooden house, standing on the top of the mountain, his eyes extended into the distance with the green fields under his feet, and a warm summer breeze blew in his face, and he suddenly felt open-minded and refreshed, and Wu Yi, who had a direction, was full of ambition at the moment.
His idea was simple.
In my previous life, I had dinner with a colleague and talked about the opportunity to make a fortune on the Internet, and a colleague talked about the navigation page hao123 that they usually use, and the network manager of an Internet café made things in 1999 for the convenience of their own Internet access, after several years of promotion that can see the light of day, was acquired by Baidu in 2004, and the official purchase price was 50 million. Of course, the real price can't be so high, but it's certainly a sky-high price.
Wu Yi felt that this was an opportunity.
Build a navigation page, the threshold is low, the risk is small, the cost is less, as long as you learn ASP, DW, HTML language and other knowledge, this is the most reliable way for Wu Yi to make money at present.
In 2001, when home computers were just beginning to become popular, most people had limited knowledge of computers and needed an online assistant such as a navigation page. The most important thing is that those later portals and Internet companies have not yet realized the value of the navigation page, at this time to get a navigation page, as long as the promotion is done well, there is still a chance to make money.
Moreover, in 2001, hao123, the amount of page information is far less abundant than in 2014, and many page resources have not been developed.
On August 3, Wu Yi said goodbye to his fifth uncle and returned home.
August 4 is the day when the results of the college entrance examination will be queried. From 8 a.m., Bian Ma began to call the hotline for checking scores, but the service was not opened for a whole day.
After dinner, Dad went to call the hotline again, this time it worked, after a melody, a female voice began to broadcast the test results, Dad pressed the hands-free, and the family of three gathered around the phone-
Candidate's name: Wu Yi
Admission ticket number: xxxxxxxxxx
130 points in language. 72 in Mathematics. 239 points in liberal arts combined. 95 in English. The total score is 536 points.
To listen again, press "1......
Yi's mother's eyes immediately moistened, this is definitely a high score that her son has never taken the test, and it is also a high score that she dare not imagine. Although Wu Yi had already said the results of the evaluation, the family's hanging heart did not fall until this moment.
That night, Bian's father made countless phone calls to relatives and friends.
Pick up the phone and say, "Hey, I'm old side...... Yes? Grades? The results are out...... It's okay, 536...... Yes, liberal arts...... I didn't do well in either subject...... Okay, I'll tell you about the wine, don't worry, we can't forget you in this relationship. ”
