30. Circle Network

Wen Yuqing was doing her homework with her daughter, and suddenly her phone rang.

Caller ID: "Huang Shimin", the best friend and former colleague, often helps him.

"Sister Wen, what are you doing?"

"Ah, Xiao Huang, why did you remember to call me?"

"It's nothing, yes, I want to ask you how you are now? I miss you a little.

Today, the company laid off two more people. Manager Liu suddenly mentioned you, and I suddenly miss you very much..."

"Xiao Huang, don't worry about me. I've found a new job. The company is in our community, close to home and convenient for taking care of children. The boss is very good."

"Sister Wen, don't lie to me. Although I don't have much ability, I can still help with a little bit of care." Huang Shimin thought to myself that Sister Wen was comforting me, how could she find a job so easy to find.

"I really didn't lie to you. If you don't believe me, come here on the weekend. I'll take you to see my new company..."

Wen Yuqing hung up the phone and felt a little sorry for Xiao Huang.

At first, when she saw the phone call from her former colleague, she thought the other party had some purpose. The girl Xiao Huang couldn't hide it. After chatting for a few words, Wen Yuqing knew that she didn't understand her current situation at all, but she was just caring.

Wen Yuqing was very touched. People who have experienced hardships saw every kindness very precious.

...

"Manager Liu, I asked Sister Wen yesterday that she has found a new job."

"Hmm? So fast, it's hard to find a job now."

"It should be true, she also told me the address..."

"That's good, that's good." Manager Liu didn't say more.

You can’t be in a hurry to play the emotional card, this is Boss Lu’s explanation.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The old fox is slowly planning, but Li Ran is unaware of it. He is now busy applying for domain names.

In the morning, I washed up every day, jogged, ate breakfast, and went to the office to catch a walk. After the process was completed, Li Ran hid in the dormitory and began to apply for a domain name.

Application for a domain name in 2003 is really too simple. You can apply with your personal ID card photo. There is no need to upload a company business license and there is no limit on the number. As long as you think of the name before others, you can.

One morning, Li Ran gave: "Banana, apple, plum, chestnut, pear, aunt, old godfather, wood, bench, second uncle, paid for it, and Xixi, Lao Wang next door, natural culture, ancient city forum, Nanzhou forum, Western Wealth... Chinese, English, abbreviated, all spelled, all companies you have seen, and never seen have applied for all the names of companies you have ever seen."

Next is waiting for one to two weeks of review.

Li Ran stretched and prepared to stand up and move, "Damn it, I forgot again, I didn't do anything. The two domain names of the community and the public community have not yet been applied for." Continue to fill in the form...

...

Li Ran considered last night that the server upgrade was too fast and the cost was increased invisibly, and the server must be "rented"! Houses cannot be rented, high-tech things must be rented, house prices keep rising, and technological products are just the opposite. Now, a server worth 50,000 will be worth 20,000 next year, and it will be worthless in five years (no, selling scrap iron is worth a lot of money)!

Riding on the small electric donkey and heading straight to the telecommunications company...

As a computer teacher, many students of Li Ran worked in telecommunications companies after graduation, and this process is very familiar.

50G space, 10M broadband, 4 IP addresses, 5,000 yuan per year; the telecommunications company does not bargain, and Li Ran is not short of this amount of money now, it can be done in two hours.

"Is Lu Ping? I am Li Ran." There was no one else in the ancient city except Lu Ping.

"Brother Li, are you going to treat me to a meal today?"

"Well, you said that, then let's have dinner before chatting." Li Ran forgot yesterday's promise.

"Haha, I'm kidding, Brother Li, what's wrong with you?"

"I just called me Li Ran after saying that, right? Well, I want to buy a house again!"

"……………………” Can buying a house be addicted? Lu Ping was confused.

"Hey, Lu Ping, are you listening?" The other person didn't respond for a long time, and Li Ran asked afterwards.

"Here, Brother Li, please continue to talk."

"I want to buy a first floor. It is more convenient to enter and exit. It is best to have a small yard, which does not need to be too large. I want to set up an Internet company. 80 square meters should be enough. Please help me find out..."

"Okay, then I'll look for any suitable one."

"See you in Zhuxiang that night, I will wait for you at the entrance of the hotel at 6 o'clock."

...

"Well, there is no need for Zhang Qin to help introduce the work. There are four people, and they are all in one go. Shen Bin, Wang Xiaotian writes code with me, Li Yan works as an artist, and Liu Qing is responsible for promotion..."

Li Ran was not worried that they would refuse. The school arranged a subsidy of three or four hundred yuan per month, and she was so tired that Li Ran would not take advantage of the students.

After planning everything, Li Ran started writing code. After 20 years, he was all python, Javaweb, CSS, and VUE at this time, there were only three ASP web pages, but this was not a problem for Li Ran.

It is normal for technical school teachers to work part-time outside, and they don’t sit in the room for a lot of free time. Not counting Zhang Qin, Li Ran also knows that many teachers have their own businesses. Even Lao Zuo also works part-time in a friend’s online company, but everyone doesn’t promote it, and it’s not large in scale. People like Li Ran have vaguely heard of websites, but gradually, because of constant investment, they can’t see the end, and end up in a hurry.

Li Ran estimated that it would take at least five years to truly open his website, so he was not worried that others would know, and as long as he said he was renting a house, it would not attract attention.

"Mass Community" will be promoted nationwide in the future, but now it will be local. The "Ancient City Forum" will start, music exchange, variety show exchange, reading exchange, film and television exchange, sports exchange...

I first got a beta version, 0.1 of the ancient city forum, uploading and testing, "Well, the domain name has not been applied for, so I can only log in with IP."

Ancient City Forum Version 0.1, Success!

Next is to apply for an industrial and commercial license for an online company. Li Ran already knows this process. Think about the company's name first, and wait until the house is ready before taking the rest. If it really doesn't work, you can ask Lao Wei for help.

The name "Natural Network" is not loud... The name "Round Square Network" is good, it is based on the money, which is round outside and square inside. Well, that's it.

------------------

"Oh, fool, go for dinner." Old Zhou came to call him.

"No, I'll make an appointment with Lu Ping." Li Ran answered honestly.

"Oh, you're enlightened! It's not easy."

"If you have serious things, I'm going to build a website and ask her to help rent a house."

"Open a company! Then do you still live in a dormitory?"

"Of course I live there. The house I rented is just a studio, but occasionally I might work overtime on the floor there."

Because I need a few students to do odd jobs for me, this matter will definitely not be hidden, and there is no need to be concealed. Li Ran happened to use Lao Zhou's big mouth to promote his "rental" and start a business.

"You are going to learn from Bill Gates!" Lao Zhou was not surprised.

"Hahaha, one day you found out that you had been neighbors with the richest man, are you proud?"

"Hey, stop dreaming. There are so many classmates like you. I haven't heard of any one that succeeded!" Lao Zhou was not optimistic.

"Hahaha, when my brothers become rich, I'll invite you to eat lobster and abalone..."

"Lu Ping is a good person. You should start as soon as you should, and don't just think about eating." Old Zhou said a few rare words.

...

Lao Zhou is gone.
