Chapter 75 What to Choose
Chen Weiguo stayed at home for one night and left early the next morning.
From then on, Xiaowu became accustomed to calling him every night as long as Chen’s father was not at home. The little girl was very good at talking and had to chat for a long time. I don’t know where so many things came from. For a while, the phone bill of the Chen family soared. Chen’s mother was very dissatisfied, but she still didn’t say anything.
Xiaowu is on summer vacation, and Chen Qiaoshan has another student in English teaching. The little girl can't help but learn with her two sisters. Fortunately, Chen Qiaoshan doesn't have to worry too much, so she just threw it to Chen Xi and sent it.
Chen Qiaoshan saw a news from the text message on his mobile phone. Netscape was disbanded. He looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. Today is July 15, 2003, and an era has passed like this!
Netscape is a very magical company that witnessed the entire Internet outbreak.
The main founder of Netscape is Mark Anderson. He developed the mosaic browser during his college years. It has a very evil Chinese translation called mosaic. Microsoft's ie browser was developed based on the reference of mosaics.
The mosaic belongs to Anderson's alma mater, the University of Illinois. After Mark Anderson graduated from University, he established Netscape Company. He wrote codes again to create a brand new browser Netscape Navigator. Once it was launched, it became popular all over the world and once occupied 90% of the world's Internet market share.
When Netscape was at its most glorious, Anderson once clamored to make Microsoft a supplier of device drivers. Of course, this was not a brag. The crisis that Microsoft was facing at that time was Alexander.
Netscape browser changed the entire Internet. Before Netscape, only a very small number of people were able to connect to the Internet with instructions. The launch of Netscape browser has made the Internet popular to the general public. To this day, we are still using this method of surfing the Internet.
Netscape was born between the fingers of Microsoft. Bill Gates took a nap and Netscape rose at a glance. For this reason, the richest man invested more than 3 billion US dollars to finally kill this opponent, of which nearly 800 million US dollars were paid to Netscape.
The war between Netscape and Microsoft is very fierce, but the ending is destined, and what is left to people is more about aftertaste and reflection.
Chen Qiaoshan was very moved. Although the birth and annihilation of Netscape lasted only a few years, the process was worth his efforts.
Netscape's rise is because Anderson believes that the future belongs to the Internet, but Bill Gates does not agree with this view. He believes that the future belongs to PC. The difference in cognition has allowed Netscape to find a space for growth.
The demise of Netscape was because Microsoft discovered its mistake. When it recognized the facts, the existence of Netscape had already posed a huge threat to it. Microsoft had to use huge amounts of money and industry monopoly to kill its opponents, and the price paid for it was undoubtedly huge.
An era has passed, and a new era has arrived. Chen Qiaoshan was thinking about where he should go?
The domestic Internet has now reached the turning point of the industry. In 2003, the three major portals have achieved great glory. In this year, Sina has not yet had Weibo, NetEase Games has just started, and Sohu has not yet involved in the video business, but the three portals have already achieved profitability through SMS information business.
Chen Qiaoshan knew that Ding Lei will achieve the first wealth of domestic Internet people with a net worth of 7.5 billion yuan this year, and he will become a role model for this generation of young people, but Chen Qiaoshan still knew that this was just the beginning.
Just two months ago, Taobao was launched. Now the leader of the b2c industry is Dangdang.com, which is at its peak. No one except Chen Qiaoshan would have thought that this emerging Taobao would create a miracle of Chinese e-commerce websites. Whether it is Dangdang excellence now or the 8848 that has been split, it is not worth mentioning in front of Taobao.
The future is an era of changing Internet storms and opportunities and crises coexist. Chen Qiaoshan looked at the calendar and couldn't help but feel an impulse in his heart. This is an era of creating legends!
Chen Qiaoshan secretly reminded himself that it was time to make a choice. He felt a vague feeling that he seemed to be bound by his family during this period. Whether in the past or now, he was not a person with great ambitions, but the two life periods were mixed together, which made him at a loss.
In his previous life, he worked alone in a foreign land, and his parents were thousands of miles away. For him, his home could only be hidden deep in his heart, and he would only remember it silently when it was late at night.
Chen Qiaoshan was a little envious of Xiaowu. She missed Chen's father. Chen Weiguo would rush home overnight without saying a word, just to comfort his little daughter. As for him, Chen Qiaoshan thought of his parents in his previous life and felt a tingling pain in his heart. He may never be able to meet in this life.
"Second brother, why are you crying?" Xiaowu stood beside him and asked weakly.
Chen Qiaoshan reacted, raised his head slightly, "I didn't cry, something was in my eyes!"
"Second brother, I'll help you with your blow!"
"I'll just rub it myself!"
Xiaowu was a little unhappy. He might think that his second brother disliked her and stayed aside and sulked.
Chen Xi glanced at the second brother, his eyes were very strange. She was a big girl, and she could tell that something was wrong with her second brother, but she didn't say much.
Chen Xi used to look down on her second brother a little bit, but recently she has changed her opinion. Not to mention her grades, she just changes at home. It all depends on her second brother's ability, and her parents do not have that ability.
Sometimes she even secretly wondered if he had changed someone else. The second brother was not like this before, but if she had to choose, she would still like her current second brother. Of course, she silently remembered all these things in her heart and no one told her.
In the evening, Chen Qiaoshan went out with a crutch, and he wanted to go out for some breath.
He walked aimlessly in the village, trying to avoid where someone passed by. Before he knew it, he actually arrived at the foot of Qiaoshan. He looked at the south from afar and looked for a long time.
...
"Dashan? Why are you here?"
Chen Qiaoshan woke up from his thoughts and found that the person who called him was grandpa. He hurriedly asked, "Master, why are you here?"
Old Man Chen said angrily: "You haven't gone back yet. You're so anxious at home and are looking for you everywhere!"
Only then did Chen Qiaoshan realize that he had been staying for a long time and it was already dark.
Old Man Chen looked at his most promising grandson and asked, "Dashan, what are you doing here?"
Chen Qiaoshan was speechless, and he didn't know how to answer his grandfather's question.
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person, and he just wanted to find a wife to settle down and live a stable life. He had no other thoughts or big extravagances. But for such a small wish, he stayed away from his parents, left his hometown, and lived a very frustrated life.
He was a little regretful and a little resentful, "Master, why is it so difficult for a person to live?"
Old Man Chen couldn't figure out what his grandson was going to do, "You are young, what are you thinking about in your mind?"
Chen Qiaoshan was silent, and he couldn't communicate with his grandfather about this issue.
"Dashan, what's wrong with you?" Old Man Chen was a little anxious. His youngest son was just like this, so nothing could happen.
Chen Qiaoshan did not answer his grandfather’s question and asked again: “Master, can you tell me about my dad?”
Old Man Chen was stunned, "Why did you think of asking this?"
"Master, tell me!"
"There is nothing to say. He chose the way, his fate is destined, and no one can blame others!"
Chen Qiaoshan suddenly realized that Chen Weiguo's path was chosen by himself. Does he regret it? Perhaps, in my impression, Chen Weiguo has never complained over the years.
Chen Qiaoshan couldn't help but think in his heart that he had chosen his own path in his previous life, and he couldn't blame others in the end. Now God has given him another chance, what choice should he make?
Old Man Chen led his lost grandson home and pulled out the tobacco pipes on his waist halfway and put them on. Chen Qiaoshan hurriedly came forward to light it for his grandfather. There was a flash of sparks on the path.
Before he got home, Chen's mother came to meet her with her three daughters, and scolded her face as soon as she met, "Second, where have you gone?"
Chen Qiaoshan stepped forward with a slight smile and said, "Mom, I'm just walking around outside, and I'm glaring!"
Chen's mother was worried and asked quickly: "Nothing happened to you, right?"
"I'm fine!" Chen Qiaoshan couldn't help but hold his arms around Chen's mother's shoulder and said, "Mom, how about you say we're buying a house in the city? Our family will live in the city and be a city owner!"
Chen's mother held her son and said angrily: "You are safe and stay at home honestly, what are you thinking about all day long?"
