The new century is turbulent, and who will dominate the World Wide Web?
This is the theme of the banner raised by Zheng Tong. Just this line of big characters has already made the blood of those students who have been exposed to the World Wide Web boil with excitement.
"Huaxing Research Institute sincerely recruits heroes from all over the world to participate in the construction of the World Wide Web. As the saying goes, heroes can only show their true colors when the sea is flowing. We look forward to your joining and setting off a new wave of the World Wide Web."
Many students who have never been exposed to the World Wide Web are asking each other: "What is Huaxing Research Institute going to build? Is it recruiting civil engineering graduates?"
In response to such inquiries, students who have been exposed to the Internet often cast a look of disdain on them, and then proudly said: "You old man, this is a computer network. Do you understand the World Wide Web?"
The despised person shook his head, and the other one became even more proud: "It's the 21st century soon. You don't even know about the World Wide Web. You are behind the times. Haven't you heard of the saying that computers have to start from babies?"
After detailed inquiries, students majoring in civil engineering and textiles felt very frustrated. It turned out that the recruitment was for computer majors.
All college students in this area know that Huaxing Research Institute offers good treatment, good benefits, and strong scientific research capabilities. Basically every graduate wants to go to Huaxing Research Institute.
In less than two weeks, Zheng Tong recruited more than 40 people, half of whom were responsible for hardware architecture and half of whom were responsible for programming.
"You are the leader of the new wave of the World Wide Web and the pioneer of network applications for flower growers." Jiang Hua said energetically at the opening of the meeting: "I hope you will loosen your courage, put aside the shackles of your mind, and build our Huaxing Station into a global
The most awesome site.”
A boy wearing glasses stood up without fear and asked: "Boss, I just want to know how the hardware conditions are?"
"It can be said that you can't find a few places in the world with better hardware conditions than ours, except of course those research institutes in big countries." Zheng Tong said proudly: "Let me tell you in advance, we grow flowers
Our server, optical cable, hard disk and other hardware equipment manufacturing enterprises were all established by your boss back then. Our country has as much hardware as we need, and bosses who don’t have it can also order from abroad.”
"Fifty of the world's most advanced servers are already being sent to us. You can get whatever you want in terms of hardware. I can't help you with the software, but I can give you the most advanced computers in the world. You
Do you want a universal one, an Apple one, or a Compaq one?”
Another boy with messy hair and beard said: "It doesn't matter, we don't need computers to complement our abilities."
"Then it's Compaq's, because I'm still a shareholder of Compaq."
Jiang Hua's behavior was called "Liang Jia Er", giving these students who had just left school a show of strength and letting them know how arrogant their boss was.
There was an inconspicuous boy sitting in the corner. He raised his hand and asked: "Boss, when I was walking around the institute just now, I saw someone working on the house in the back. I saw one person who was my former senior brother.
I also graduated from the Department of Computer Science, how come I am reduced to wiring?"
Zheng Tong smiled and said: "What your senior brother is setting up is not an ordinary line. A supercomputer is being installed over there."
Jiang Hua continued to brag: "Okay, keep working hard. One day when the World Wide Web develops, I will let you use supercomputers as servers."
So far, only Jiang Hua can boast of such a fresh and refined cow, which really shocked these novices who had just stepped out of the ivory tower.
Supercomputers serve as servers. Currently, there is probably no server in the world that is so awesome.
Seeing that the novices were almost finished discussing, Jiang Hua patted the table and said, "Okay, let's get back to business. Let me talk about my needs."
After saying this, Jiang Hua was stunned for a moment. This tone was so familiar. By accident, I also became Party A's father.
"I originally wanted to make a real BBS, but I felt that BBS was not good enough. I wanted to make an online chat room."
This is a completely new term. Of course, chat room software is not new. The first chat software appeared in 1980. It was a product of John State. However, the Flower Garden Network started late, and many students have never heard of it at all.
this word.
"Boss, what is the chat room?"
Jiang Hua thought for a while and said: "BBS is a bulletin board, a friend wall. You write a sentence, and then I can write a sentence. And the chat room is a teahouse. If you like the excitement, you can chat casually in the public chat room, which is the lobby. Like
If you are quiet, you can apply for a private chat room, and chat with a few close friends alone, which is equivalent to a private room, you know what I mean? I don’t know how to realize these needs, it depends on you."
"I understand, boss, just take a look." The boy who showed off his skills by showing off his computer skills said, "Although it's very new, we are confident that we can achieve it within half a year."
"Then I'll be waiting for your good news."
After Jiang Hua sat down, Zheng Tong stood up: "Because your equipment is not complete yet, you don't need to go to work for the time being. You should study and play. According to the rules, you will get a sum of money to settle down when you enter our institute.
Please wait for a while to collect the fee from the finance department. I hope you all can recharge your batteries before starting work. Not only is our boss looking forward to the birth of your chat room as soon as possible, but I, the director, am also looking forward to it."
In less than a week, the servers and computers shipped from the special zone arrived. The people responsible for the delivery were employees of ZTE Semiconductor. CITIC Semiconductor has an office in Beijing.
After delivering the servers, computers, optical cables and other consumables, the guy in charge of delivery took out another box.
"Mr. Jiang, this is what Mr. Lu asked me to hand over to you."
Jiang Hua took the box and signed the list. After the delivery person left, Zheng Tong asked curiously: "What did your little secretary give you?"
"What little secretary? Now she is the serious general manager of CITIC Semiconductor. She is also a well-known strong woman in Xiangjiang."
"But I used to be your little secretary."
Jiang Hua opened the box, and there were more than twenty small boxes inside, about the size of bricks. Colorful pictures were printed on the boxes. Jiang Hua recognized them at a glance as a digital music player, and the box also said Siren MP3.
There is an amazing overlap of history. In the end, after going around and around, this digital music player was still named MP3, and the name is not bad. In Western mythology, the siren will attract lonely travelers by singing on the sea, and it should be that it will invest in foreign countries.
human appetite.
"What is this?" Zheng Tong picked up a box and asked curiously: "What is MP3?"
