Chapter 92 Happiness in the second half of my life
It’s June, what is the most important thing in school?
Of course it's the college entrance examination.
The seniors of this senior year experienced inhumane torture for a year due to the school's failure last year.
Now, they finally face their ultimate test.
It is worth mentioning that although the results of this year’s class are still unknown, the school is already preparing for next year.
According to the teaching plan of Linzhong, by the end of the second year of high school, all knowledge points in the entire high school have actually been learned.
The entire senior year of high school was just reviewing.
Therefore, in the second grade of high school, the school selected a group of top students who have always been at the top of the grade. According to the same format and invigilation requirements of the college entrance examination, they were given a "practical practice" for the college entrance examination in advance.
On the one hand, this is to make them familiar with the environment and process of the college entrance examination, so that they don’t have to be nervous when they officially enter the exam next year and can perform stably.
More importantly, we hope to test their academic level in advance and compare them with this year's college entrance examination students to determine their ranking in the province.
It can be said that it took a lot of effort.
However, these have nothing to do with being a scumbag. Lin Yi could only silently cheer for the seniors in his heart.
The seniors leave it to the junior girls to cheer.
As the semester came closer and closer, Gu Caiwei became more and more anxious, but she found that Lin Yi had been disappearing recently.
So before the evening self-study started, when Lin Yi just returned to the classroom, she finally couldn't help but go over and ask: "What have you been doing recently? You seem very busy?"
High school is such a place, and nothing can be hidden from the people in the classroom who get along day and night.
Lin Yi didn't go anywhere, he just went to the school's electronic reading room to surf the Internet before lunch break and afternoon self-study.
But he couldn't tell the truth because he went online for the country's first Bitcoin trading website, which was just established at the beginning of this month.
Bitcoin is famous on the Internet in later generations, mainly because of the series of wealth-making myths that accompany it, but few people really understand it.
Affected by those true and false rumors, Lin Yi had also paid attention to it for a while and knew some of its background and price trends.
Bitcoin is an encrypted digital currency that was invented in 2009 by a mysterious person on the Internet called "Satoshi Nakamoto."
It is characterized by a constant total amount, decentralized issuance and trading, and open and transparent transaction records.
Compared with the complex technical background that is difficult to understand, what is more talked about is its unprecedented and miraculous price trend.
The first recorded Bitcoin transaction occurred in May last year, when an American programmer exchanged 10,000 Bitcoins for two pizzas worth a total of $30.
Each Bitcoin is only worth $0.003, but its pricing has evolved since then.
What is the maximum price that Bitcoin can reach before Lin Yi is reborn?
It costs about US$69,000 a piece, which is 23 million times its original price.
For a two-dollar lottery ticket, even if you win a jackpot of 5 million, it will only be multiplied by "only" 2.5 million times, which is a whole order of magnitude difference.
No wonder it's so crazy.
When Lin Yi was reborn, he had neither memorized lottery numbers nor stock trends. Apart from knowing that Maotai of Maotai Technology was a big bull stock, he was a complete layman.
So after he made his first pot of gold during the World Cup in June last year, he did nothing for a whole year, just waiting for it to appear.
Lin Yi once considered whether to delve into the virtual currency industry. After all, there are endless celebrities in the cryptocurrency industry who have become famous in the future, leaving behind countless urban legends.
Now he is one of the first people to join the game, but two reasons keep him away.
The first reason is his age.
He has not yet reached the age of 18, and legally does not have full capacity for civil conduct.
Now, no matter whether he joins someone or forms a grassroots team to work alone, not to mention that no one takes him seriously, he can't even get a serious industrial and commercial license.
As for telling his parents that he dropped out of high school to start a business, he couldn't imagine the other outcome besides having his legs broken.
The second reason is...
The legal status of virtual currency has always been quite embarrassing, otherwise the so-called big guys in the currency circle would not have been so secretive.
Pioneers will always face such problems. No matter whether they are pioneers or martyrs in the end, Lin Yi does not need to take such risks.
In this day and age, there are obviously many vibrant industries to choose from, so why go into such muddy waters?
So without much hesitation, he finally chose to buy some Bitcoin at the right time, wait for the price to appreciate, and cash out at a high price.
Why didn't Lin Yi rush to make money after returning here?
Because for a reborn person, he has never worried about his "future" or "money path".
Wealth is free and at your fingertips.
Another interesting discovery is that the founder of Bitcoin, which sounds like a high-tech product, the first trading website in China, was just a Lucheng businessman who had never gone to college.
Before that, the industry he was engaged in was still a sweat steaming business that was out of reach.
Before this website was launched, the limited domestic Bitcoin transactions were actually implemented through Taobao.
Now that the website has just been launched and the transaction volume is still very small, Lin Yi did not act rashly other than tracking the transaction prices on the website.
He found that the current price was on the high side.
Although he can "predict" that Bitcoin will soar in the future, 2011 can still be called its ancient period.
Lin Yi judged that it should be at a periodic high now, and he could wait until the price was lower before buying.
It doesn't matter if his judgment is wrong. For him, he will never lose money if he buys at any time. No one can be more sure than him now. It's just a matter of making more or less.
In short, he had put in a lot of effort recently and had neglected other things. He thought for a while and found an ambiguous reason:
"I'll go to the electronic reading room to check some information."
Gu Caiwei actually didn't care where he went, but she couldn't ask what she wanted to ask. The last time Lin Yi's birthday was originally the best opportunity, it was interrupted by Wei Lingjuan.
"Jingle Bell……"
After some hesitation, the bell for evening self-study rang again, and she returned to her seat unwillingly.
"What did the school beauty Gu say to you just now? She has been looking for you a bit frequently lately." Old Xiong's gossipy nature seems to be hard to change.
"Talk about life and ideals."
Lin Yi casually said that he probably knew what Gu Caiwei wanted to say, but he hadn't thought about how to say it yet.
Lao Xiong was not satisfied with this answer and asked again: "Then what have you been doing recently? You can't see anyone. Are you hiding from her?"
Lin Yi expressed surprise at his brain circuitry. He didn't know how he connected the two things, so he had to say one more sentence:
"I went to the electronic reading room to pursue happiness for the rest of my life."
Lower body?
Lao Xiong quickly glanced down at his abdomen. He didn't expect Lin Yi to be such a person. It seemed that the school beauty Gu was too harsh on him.
but……
"Hey, make a copy for me next time."
He patted Lin Yi and handed over a mobile hard drive.
