When Wang Sifeng heard Chen Qiaoshan ask about work, he suddenly felt a little sad. He couldn't see the direction of his future and was a little confused for a moment.

Wang Sifeng has been graduating for more than a year, but he has never left Peking University.

He is currently working on an information security project with his mentor. He has invested all the money he saved from private jobs in recent years. Unfortunately, the project progresses slowly and he is about to spend all the money. I don’t know where to find the funds for the next stage. The entire project team is very upset for a while.

Wang Sifeng is a lucky person. He was admitted to the Computer Department of Xi'an Jiaotong University in 1995 and the Master of Computer Department of Peking University in 1999. This Qilu man was lucky enough to encounter the era of booming Internet development.

In Yanjing, the Internet circle is very small, especially in Zhongguancun, students from Peking University and Tsinghua University have become the new force of the Internet. These two adjacent universities bring together the top talents in the country and provide the first batch of top programmers for the rise of China's Internet.

Located in Zhongguancun, students majoring in computer science in two universities are the luckiest group and the first to come into contact with the Internet. Most of them have become the top programmers in China and occupied a large number of positions in CTO in China.

In 1999, when he first came to Yanjing, Wang Sifeng was still a poor and young man. As a result, he earned tens of thousands of dollars in less than half a year. Of course, these are nothing. At that time, Zhou Feng and his group were still in their junior year, and they had already started to help Chen Yizhou with a monthly salary of 8,000 yuan.

It was during that time that Wang Sifeng met many like-minded people, such as Zhuang Li, a top student in the 96-level computer department of Tsinghua University, who competed with her boyfriend for the first grade scholarship every year, as well as Wang Xiaochuan, Hu Ning, Zhou Jie, Xu Chaojun... and Lei Ming, Chen Jinkai, Wang Shaoyang, Xu Hanjie...

It was a beautiful era, and they stood at the forefront of the times. In those years, their prides were among the top technical people in China. Brokers from Zhongguancun often knocked on the door of their dormitory with a lot of money.

Wang Sifeng still clearly remembers that when he first helped someone write a program and got a reward of 5,000 yuan, he was ecstatic and excited.

The 5,000 yuan in 1999 was definitely a huge sum. In my hometown in Shandong Province, my parents worked hard for a year and couldn't make it.

But when he took the money to invite a few friends whom he knew went to Ximen, Peking University to pick skewers, he was ridiculed by those people. It turned out that he asked the subcontractor to cheat a lot of money. The technology was very expensive in those days, but he didn't care at all at that time. Since then, he has gradually integrated into this Internet circle.

The circle is not big, and it covers most of the teachers and students of the Computer Science School of Peking University and Tsinghua University. Of course, teachers generally do not take on small jobs. Most of them run companies outside. Sometimes they can't help but take them to help, and of course they will not be given less rewards.

Wang Sifeng met Liu Chang at that time. Liu Chang was not an insider. She was from the Tsinghua Economic and Management Department at 96 and was a childhood friend with Zhuang Li, so she naturally got into this circle.

When the two met, it was the time when Wang Sifeng was the most energetic. In terms of technology, there were not many people in the circle who were better than him. Perhaps it was these that attracted Liu Chang.

Thinking of this, Wang Sifeng felt a sense of bitterness in his heart. Unfortunately, the times changed so fast. Friends who often fucked skewers together in Ximen a few years ago have gone their separate ways, and he is the only one who is still here to persist.

Wang Sifeng couldn't help but sigh. At the end of 1999, Zhou Feng's invitation, in 2000, teacher Liu Jianguo's invitation, in 2001, Lei Ming's invitation, and now Chen Jinkai's invitation, he refused all of them. Now he thought that maybe he had done something wrong.

He was mixed in his heart. Zhou Feng’s main focus was on distributed systems. Liu Jianguo and Lei Ming’s main focus was on online search. Chen Jinkai studied Internet theory, and his interest was on information security.

Wang Sifeng had a persistence in his heart, but he had never told anyone that his ultimate goal was to go to Microsoft China or ibm China Research Institute. Looking at Liu Chang sitting beside him, he couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

Liu Chang sacrificed too much for him. She was a top student in the Department of Economics and Management of Tsinghua University and chose to take a job at a bank branch near Peking University. No one believed her when she said it. Perhaps her dream might be like Zhuang Li, and she would go to the United States to study with her boyfriend.

Wang Sifeng thought about it for a long time and finally made up his mind that if this project failed, he would agree to Wang Xiaochuan's invitation. He would not consider it for himself, but also for Liu Chang.

The atmosphere at the dining table was a little dull. Liu Chang saw Wang Sifeng's strangeness and couldn't help but ask with concern: "What's wrong with you?"

Wang Sifeng said: "I am considering whether I agree to Wang Xiaochuan's invitation. Maybe it's time to give up."

There were only four people in the private room. As soon as he said that, Liu Chang and Chen Qiaoshan were both shocked.

Chen Qiaoshan was surprised. Wang Sifeng was undoubtedly a talent or the top Internet talent in China. He originally had the intention to fool Wang Sifeng, but now it seems that it is quite difficult.

He is not unfamiliar with Wang Xiaochuan and Chen Qiaoshan. The future vice president of Sohu and Sogou CEO are also from Tsinghua University’s 96th grade. He is a top student. Most people will take the exam all the way through school. Wang Xiaochuan will take the exam all the way through school. After graduation, he becomes an executive of the portal website and is a true winner in life.

Chen Qiaoshan was a little confused. He clearly remembered that Wang Sifeng finally went to NetEase, but why did he decide to go to Sohu again? But after thinking about it, he felt relieved. This circle is so big, and people like him must have been stared at long ago.

Wang Sifeng is undoubtedly a talent that is hard to come by. Such a person has been tested by reality and has achieved success in starting a business at NetEase or later, otherwise he would not have become the target of programmers from Peking University.

Although Wang Sifeng is not doing well now, he is not short of opportunities to make money. There is a saying in the Internet industry that allows the smartest people to make the most money, which is also the charm of the Internet.

After developing according to the historical trajectory, Wang Sifeng did not become a celebrity on the Forbes Rich List. However, sometimes money is not a measure of a person's success, he is the more idealistic person.

Chen Qiaoshan thought in his mind that he might be able to start from this aspect. Although he is empty-handed now, no one stipulates that those who are empty-handed cannot recruit talents. Perhaps he should study how to fool Wang Sifeng to his side.

...

Liu Chang should be the one who knows Wang Sifeng the best. She knows the talent of the man in front of her and his inner pursuit. She has been going on for so long, but she didn't expect that this would be the result. She doesn't know how to describe her current mood.

A woman is a strange animal, and Liu Chang's thoughts at this time were very complicated and difficult to understand.

She was willing to see Wang Sifeng face reality. That might not be the life he wanted to live, but having a high-paying job and a stable life is at least much better than what he is now.

But Liu Chang hoped that Wang Sifeng could persevere in her heart. She liked the energetic man. She couldn't bear to see this man full of ideals bent over by reality. Although subconsciously, she had long known that this was the inevitable result.

Liu Chang was very confused. After thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what it was. Finally, he put in a irrelevant sentence, "You ordered this table of dishes, and you can check the bill yourself if you don't eat them clean!"
