86 Tomorrow
The answer is tomorrow, tomorrow every day.
When Fan Ping'an was thinking about the operation model of which software he should refer to to get his mobile game out of the predicament, he didn't know that at this time, two young people who were not much different from him were also referring to the mobile game he operated, thinking about their way out.
For example, Yang Zheng, he looked at the game carefully operated by Fan Ping'an, he was thinking about the possibility of application, and at the same time digging the playability of this mobile game, and for the first time in his mind, he also thought about the possibility of "interesting".
And the rich second generation, who is a competitor and a close friend, looks at this mobile game that has been in operation for so long, and his eyes are not only longing, but also a little more tired.
He was tired, really tired.
Although he can be regarded as a "successful person" compared to his peers, he is also soberly aware that he is far less successful than the media and others.
He once thought that the competition for entrepreneurship was the word "idea", and the competition was whose idea was more advanced, and he always thought that he could become a person who could change the world through "ideas".
But time cruelly told him that his ideas were worthless in the face of reality.
This reminded him of an article he had read, which he couldn't remember exactly, but he remembered that the article was probably about the word idea.
It says that there is no unique idea in this world, and when you think of this idea, there are actually more than a million people in this world who have already had this idea in their heads, but out of those million people, less than 10,000 people will follow this idea and implement it, and less than 10 people will succeed.
He used to scoff at this text, but at that time, he was young and full of energy, and his mind was full of all kinds of ideas.
He has always believed that he is a unique existence in this world, and his ideas will definitely succeed.
However, he has passed the age of standing, and when he looks back at all this, he only feels ridiculous.
Chess software has appeared on computers since the eighties of the last century, and social software has had a prototype as early as the sixties and seventies of the last century, and the combination of chess and social networking has been in existence since the beginning of the twenty-first century.
And I have ideas about the combination of chess and socialization, in comparison, it is not ahead of its time at all, and it can even be said to be "backward".
But why did the previous chess software wither away and he succeeded? He thought that the reason was that he was in the most suitable era, and indeed, this era was the era of entrepreneurship, and countless wonderful ideas bloomed in this era with their beauty.
His so-called ideas are actually just in line with the tide of this era, and as for success, he doesn't feel that he is successful.
Because as he gets older, he has a different understanding of the definition of success.
He had just graduated from college and looked at the rich people who were hyped up in the media, and he thought that success was money.
In order to be rich, he betrayed his best friend in college, and also in order to be rich, he was in his most precious twenties, and he ran the so-called human relationship sophistication every day.
He thought that rich people just took advantage of the world, but when he spent a lot of time to operate the so-called world, he forgot the words "down-to-earth".
In the past few years, he seems to have never been down-to-earth, and after receiving media praise and a small success in his career, his growing ambition made him forget that he actually just wanted to do chess socially in the first place.
Driven by desire, he began to inadvertently come into contact with the so-called artificial intelligence that can change the world. also began to play the highest "metaverse" in this era.
But he doesn't really understand artificial intelligence at all, and he doesn't know much about what the metaverse is.
The era of fragmentation made him think that all knowledge was just a few cold lines of text on various encyclopedias, and the era of fragmentation also made him think that he knew a lot.
As everyone knows, the more fragmented the era, the more the word knowledge needs a "complete system".
It is undeniable that even fragmented knowledge has brought him unexpected benefits.
He did because he focused on artificial intelligence and the metaverse, and earned two other pots of gold in addition to the software of Chess every day, and the application of artificial intelligence in chess teaching made him think that he had seen the "dawn".
But there is never a shortage of imitators in this day and age, and when his success is overwhelmingly publicized, more and more imitators are born.
They are more "violent" than him, and they also use fragmented knowledge and understanding to compete with him for the newly opened new market.
There are also "people with complete skills and knowledge", and there are even more intelligent people among them.
They stepped on his shoulders and perfected his hasty products, and they pulled more powerful investors, suppressed the prices he had set before, and fought a commodity price war with him.
When he was overwhelmed by these latecomers, he seemed to be looking for a life-saving straw, and when he looked back at the "Chess See You Every Day" he designed in his twenties, he suddenly found that because of his ambition and desire.
Every day chess sees only a piece of chicken feathers left.
He wanted to sell the "obsolete product" that was only a piece of chicken feathers, but his father stopped him.
As his role model and his biggest "investor", he did not dare to disobey his father's ideas.
Although he didn't dare to be disobedient, he still had a lot of complaints in his heart.
He also seems to have forgotten that his family was not rich and wealthy at the beginning, but was still poor.
His father was not a business tycoon, but a "stall guy" who was looked down upon by many people, and the tuition fees for his school were all exchanged by his father for handmade fabrics in five corners.
He also forgot that the predicament faced by his father back then was heavier than his current self, and he forgot that the reason why his father was able to succeed was because of the "down-to-earth" that was most easily overlooked.
His father sold the handmade fabrics for 30 years, from a small stall, to a small shop, and from a small shop to a big store, and then to become the largest handmade textile supplier in China step by step by relying on down-to-earth.
Although his father now has a lot of main business, and also holds the position of president of the chess association, as for textiles, it is obvious that it is not the main income, but he always admonishes himself to be down-to-earth.
But this era is moving too fast, and being down-to-earth also means that you will spend a lot of time doing meaningless things.
In this age where time equals money, is it useful to be down-to-earth?
He didn't know, but when he looked at this mobile game that had been in operation for so long, he inexplicably remembered the words down-to-earth in his mind.
On the second day, the rich second generation got the operation information of the game company and watched the overall loss of the game company.
He also had a playful expression on his face.
From his point of view, what's the use of being down-to-earth? There is never a shortage of down-to-earth people in this world, but most of their achievements are swallowed up by people like him who are not down-to-earth.
It also reminded him of chess.
Although the rich second generation is not a chess master, she also knows that those who have received professional training since childhood, those who have been sharpened since childhood, and it took decades to become chess masters.
They also seem to be no match for those AI chess players who carry AI chess games on their backs and can achieve quick results in a few months.
This era seems to have long since fallen out of place for those who are down-to-earth.
But is that really the case?
