CHAPTER 24: THIS
In the early morning, the sun shines.
After handing over the shift with Xie Zhi, Lin Weidong came out of the Red Ant Net, then turned right to a street, and came to the Jiajia Internet Cafe where Wang Taoxin was.
After Lin Weidong went in, he saw Wang Taoxin still sitting on the cashier and asked in confusion: "Why don't you leave after get off work? Don't have breakfast?"
Wang Taoxin was holding the notebook to keep the account, but said angrily: "Hi, don't mention it. The colleague who took over hasn't arrived yet. I can't leave for the time being. You sit first and wait for me for a while."
"You guys also use books to keep accounts here?" Lin Weidong saw that there were not many people in the Internet cafe, so he found a chair and sat down.
Wang Taoxin nodded and said helplessly: "Yes, there are more than 40 computers in an Internet cafe, and I will be exhausted to keep my account every day."
"The boss is rich, I don't dare to add another batch of computers, for fear that we will not be able to get busy and remember the wrong account."
As the network administrator of Red Ant Internet Cafe, Lin Weidong also knew about the troubles of handwriting billing, and then asked: "Is there no such billing software on the market now?"
Wang Taoxin had never heard of billing software. She was stunned for a moment and asked back: "What billing software?"
Lin Weidong said seriously: "It's the Internet cafe billing software. If we have the billing software, we don't have to handwritten it anymore."
"Is there any such software? Why haven't I heard of it..." Wang Taoxin asked in confusion.
"Is there any?" Lin Weidong replied uncertainly.
In fact, Lin Weidong had also communicated with Xie Zhigang for this question. Xie Zhigang also went to the computer city to inquire, but he did not get a positive answer.
On the other hand, Lin Weidong also considered building a billing software to make money, but he did not take action due to his level issues.
Wang Tao looked at the notebook and said to Lin Weidong next to him: "There are 5 minutes left to get off the plane on the 13th. I'll remind you if you want to add money."
Lin Weidong nodded: "Well, go ahead, you're busy with yours."
After saying that, Wang Taoxin rushed over happily.
After a while, Wang Taoxin rushed back with another 5 yuan bill.
After writing it in the notebook, Wang Taoxin asked again: "Where did you hear about the billing software? Is it reliable?"
"I would have it if it really exists!" Wang Taoxin sighed, "If there is such a billing software, I will ask the boss to install one, so I won't have to be so tired when I go out to work part-time. Damn, now I'm so tired that I'm not free all day long, and I don't even have time to chat with mm."
Lin Weidong said in anger and amused: "You are here to work, not to pick up girls. Just be content. If you want to have an online dating again, aren't you afraid of meeting dinosaurs again?"
"You still have to have a dream. What if you meet a beautiful woman in a moment?" Wang Taoxin scratched her head embarrassedly, smiled, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, Wei Dong, you said you made a complete list of websites. What is the website? Write it for me! My boss wants it!"
Lin Weidong said seriously: "I will read it to you, it's very simple."
Wang Taoxin hurriedly said, "No, no, don't, you can write it to me directly, I don't have the heart to remember."
Lin Weidong sighed, picked up the paper and pen, and wrote down the back of the book the URL of hi123.
Seeing that Lin Weidong had already written the website, Wang Taoxin took it over and looked at it, and casually said: "h1123, Weidong, your website is quite simple."
Lin Weidong gave Wang Taoxin a blank look and corrected word by word: "It's not h1123, it's hi123."
Wang Taoxin said angrily: "What is Hi 123, what you clearly wrote is h1123."
"Impossible!" Lin Weidong said, immediately picked up the notebook and read it carefully.
"I'm writing it right, I'm writing it."
Lin Weidong wrote it indeed hi123, but because the dot on the letter i does not look obvious enough and is a bit blurry, it is easy to regard the letter i as an Arabic numeral 1.
After Wang Taoxin's reminder, Lin Weidong suddenly felt enlightened. Only then did he realize that the domain name hi123 was indeed not well obtained, or even bad, which was very unfavorable to the dissemination of the website.
Because the capitalization of i and 1 are easy to be confused, the distinction between domain names is very critical. Sometimes a little gap on the Internet can cause many consequences, and even lead to the destruction of the website.
Lin Weidong thought about it and decided that when he went to work tomorrow, he must change the URL of hi123 and change it to hao123. Anyway, he has registered this domain name, so it is useless.
After Wang Taoxin got off work, the two went to have breakfast together and then returned to Mei'an Normal School.
School will start in a few days, and there are already many students living in the school, including men and women, some of whom look quite young, should be freshmen who reported in advance.
The school dormitory has been opened, and Lin Weidong and Wang Taoxin have also moved back to dormitory 403.
Back at the dormitory, Lin Weidong was lying on the bed and couldn't sleep. While thinking about how to promote the prepared navigation page, he recalled what Wang Taoxin said from time to time in his mind.
"After more than forty computers, I'm so tired..."
"Do you want to try making a billing software?"
Lin Weidong's head became hot and various ideas began to emerge one after another.
In Lin Weidong's memory of his previous life, there are many billing software in Internet cafes, including pubwin, Vientiane, Revolver, Fang Zhu, etc. These software have many benefits, which can not only solve the problems of Internet cafes, but also allow developers to make money and expand resources.
If the hao123 navigation page is bundled in the billing software, the promotion problem that Lin Weidong has pondered can be solved easily.
In the afternoon of that day, Lin Weidong didn't have much rest and went to Xinhua Bookstore to check relevant books and materials.
When he went to work the next day, Lin Weidong began to devote himself to the development of billing software like he was injected with chicken blood.
The so-called billing software is to control other clients through a general server, and then assist with the billing software to form a star-shaped local area network. Internet cafes can easily monitor the Internet time, remaining time, charging situation, etc. of each computer, which greatly facilitates the management of Internet cafes.
However, after a few days, the development of billing software still stagnated. Lin Weidong had to admit that his level was too limited and he was alone and had no ability to develop billing software.
"It's hard, it's very difficult, it's simply too difficult!"
This is the biggest feeling that Lin Weidong has been busy with the past few days and has been developing billing software projects.
As we all know, the Internet cafe billing system is a time-consuming billing method. Unlike the commodity sales system, it requires real-time calculation of consumption amounts and various additional billing rules to ensure that online calculations of multiple machines on a single point at the same time are not possible.
As for security risks, like the commodity system, the quantity management is enough. If the Internet cafe billing system is deleted or tampered with, it will directly correspond to hidden accounts, hot backups, real-time backup data analysis, and the corresponding upper data is more than tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of pieces per day. The real-time requirements for query response and business response are also outrageously high.
In short, developing billing software is a super big network project. Even if Lin Weidong has ideas in his mind, he does not have the technology, manpower or financial resources.
Therefore, Lin Weidong only persisted for a few days and gave up the idea of developing billing software. He could create a navigation website without technical content, but he really couldn't develop billing software.
