Chapter 361 The President of the Female Student Council
() In his previous life, he knew about the book "Digital Survival" very late. However, Lu Yang was lucky to have read it so late at the moment. The Internet was already quite developed at that time. He saw the relevant introduction on Douban and downloaded the electronic file from Baidu.
I didn’t have the patience to read it, but out of boredom I searched a lot of related articles.
Therefore, Lu Yang knows that the process of the book "Digital Survival" becoming popular can be said to be somewhat accidental.
At present, imported books are brought into the country by copyright agencies, and then the publishing house selects them themselves, then negotiates the copyright and plans to publish them, and then it is responsible for its own profits and losses.
Qiongnan Publishing House, which is quite advanced in this era, attaches great importance to the compilation of imported books, but after all, it is far away from Beidou. The editor in charge entrusted his reporter friend from Beidou to select suitable books. It happened that the reporter who had just started surfing the Internet accidentally saw "
Being Digital" was recommended. Although the editor in charge of Qiongnan Publishing House did not know how to surf the Internet or use email in the new century, he felt that this book with a futuristic atmosphere had commercial potential, and he immediately decided to plan and publish it.
It's just that even though the editor in charge once highlighted his various efforts in a recall article, and the Beidu reporter also planned an article introducing the Internet in his own publication, the sales of "Digital Survival" were still dismal half a year after its publication. Qiong
Nan Publishing House almost gave up promoting it.
Of course, the editor in charge later changed his mind and began to look for the upper-level route. In addition, an Internet company CEO accidentally discovered this book on the bookshelf and spoke highly of "Digital Survival". The two parties contacted and reached a consensus, and actively operated to build momentum.
Jean Negroponte and "Digital Survival" became popular.
It's just that the memory lasts a long time. Lu Yang couldn't remember too many details when he was watching it. For example, he couldn't recall the name of the boss, so he had some reservations when he told Yin Zijing before.
"You can tell me which direction it is!"
Yin Zijing took a sip of Coke and looked at Lu Yang displeased, wanting to see what this guy was selling.
"Let's go," Lu Yang didn't hesitate. He stood up, put down a sip of iced Coke that he hadn't drank, and said with a smile, "Let's go find Yin Xian."
"Um?
Yin Zijing looked up and was stunned. She had already been pulled out of McDonald's by Lu Yang, and she didn't react until the two of them got into a taxi.
"What are you looking for him for?"
Realizing what Lu Yang was thinking, Yin Zijing's questioning tone was softer, but her eyes narrowed.
Could it be that this guy really has a panacea?
But it shouldn't be in Yin Xian's hands. It's really strange...
"We're not sure yet. We'll find out later."
Lu Yang's expression was indifferent. In fact, his brain was running at full speed, trying to recall a few articles he had read. But he had already reached his destination, and he could still only find a person's name and a company name from the memory fragments.
It’s just that the company doesn’t seem to have been officially established yet, so we have to find the future Internet celebrity...
Coming to Beidu alone, Ning Shuxin had to be busy in Chongshan. Yin Xian was happy and free recently, and there was no shortage of money in his pocket, so it would not be inconvenient to stay at a friend's house.
Unexpectedly, just as he and a few friends were getting up and planning where to go for breakfast and chatting about where to go in the evening, Yin Xian's cell phone rang. His cousin Yin Zijing was looking for him, but he didn't say anything clearly on the phone.
"What on earth is going on? Let me tell you in advance that I won't go there."
Yin Xian finally found an excuse to escape and came over. When he saw Yin Zijing and Lu Yang getting out of the taxi, his tone was naturally a little unkind.
"I didn't ask you to go, it was Lu Yang who came to see you for something."
Yin Zijing looked at Yin Xian with hatred of iron being out of control. Wasn't he just taught a lesson? He still has the same virtue now.
When I was young, the Yin family in Chongshan had a lot of contact with Beidu. Especially during the winter and summer vacations, the children would come and stay for a while with gifts from their hometown, so as to broaden their horizons and communicate with each other.
Yin Xian had a more modest personality at the beginning, while his cousin Feifei had a carefree personality. She didn't like his appearance and said that she wanted to reshape her cousin's personality. During that time, she came up with a lot of ideas, but to no avail.
Later, for some reason, the two had a big conflict, and the reason could not be found out. The consequence was that Yin Xian never entered Feifei's cousin's house again.
It’s not clear whether it was because of this incident that Yin Xian’s academic performance in China had always been very good, but after studying abroad, he became a wild scholar, and finally failed to be serious after graduation.
He didn't go to the place arranged by his uncle, and he couldn't find a suitable job for half a year. If it weren't for the fact that Lu Yang came up with an idea and made some money, I'm afraid Yin Xian would have to rely on his girlfriend's salary to resist the pressure of his aunt Su Lianming.
"Lu Yang, are you looking for me?"
Yin Xian was stunned for a moment, then he softened his tone and said with a smile: "Say, you are not our son-in-law yet, so please don't interfere in household affairs."
"Find a place first."
Lu Yang was dumbfounded by what Yin Xian said. He looked around. There were many universities here and the environment was quite quiet, but the street was not suitable for talking.
The three of them found a quiet tea restaurant to sit down and ordered a few drinks.
"What's going on?"
The waiter had just left, and Yin Xian couldn't help but ask curious questions. It was very difficult to ask Lu Yang for questions before, but now he just couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Do you know Zhan Chaoyan?"
Lu Yang didn't mince words and directly threw out the name of the only person he still remembered.
In the near future, there will be four major portals in China. Zhan Chaoyan is the CEO of one of them. He is a student of Negroponte and played an important role in the popularity of the book "Digital Survival".
Yin Zijing has been studying in the United States for several years and has returned home. He probably doesn't know this person, but Yin Xian is different. The circle of studying abroad is very small now, so there is a high chance that he will know him.
"How do you know him?"
Yin Zijing narrowed her eyes. She looked at Lu Yang's twinkling eyes and felt even stranger.
Zhan Chaoyan was Yin Xian's senior student in China, and both of them later studied abroad at MIT. Although the other student had just left when Yin Zijing returned to China, the study abroad circle in the United States was not large, and she had heard of this international student with strong organizational skills.
But how did Lu Yang know about Zhan Chaoyan?
"Oh, you know him too. I found out from the Internet that Negroponte has a student named Zhan Chaoyan, who is now in Beidu."
Lu Yang felt a little guilty after being stared at by Yin Zijing, and he found an excuse with a steady heartbeat.
Of course, Yin Zijing was not that easy to fool. She looked at Lu Yang who felt inexplicably guilty and didn't say much.
Since you don't want to talk, there's no need to ask.
"Are you looking for Professor Nicholas?"
Yin Xian had no intention of paying attention to Lu Yang's expression. When he heard the name, he said seriously: "I have also taken his class, and I can be considered his student."
"You graduated from MIT?"
Lu Yang was surprised after hearing this. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that Yin Zijie seemed to have mentioned Yin Xian's graduation school before.
It's just that he was not a genius in the first place. He said this casually without remembering it, and Lu Yang didn't have much contact with Yin Xian. Of course, he couldn't immediately remember that the other person actually graduated from MIT.
The waiter brought the drinks and then smiled again.
"Then now we are short of someone to pay..."
Lu Yang took the iced green tea and took a big sip. After speaking, he looked at Yin Zijing, who was thoughtful, and then at Yin Xian, who was confused, and explained the matter to him.
Yin Xian had a lot of fun in the United States. In the last year or so, he was immersed in his homework and had no time to care about anything else. He only watched "beingdigital" on Yin Zijing's recommendation when he returned to China. As for the Chinese version, he knew about it but had no interest in watching it.
, this kind of book is of course interesting only if you read the original text.
Yin Xian was used to being idle. Only then did Yin Xian find out that Yin Zijing and Lu Yang wanted to recommend this book to senior officials. He immediately frowned.
Although he was born in a government office, Yin Xian has become accustomed to living a free life after studying abroad, far away from the complicated network of relationships in China, but now he is completely indifferent to those relationships.
"It's a good idea to invite Professor Nicholas to give a keynote speech on digitalization, but I can't invite him. I'm not familiar with him at all..."
Yin Xian also thought it was a good idea for Lu Yang to find him to build momentum, but he had no interest in getting involved in this matter, and his tone at the moment was full of rejection.
"Do you have Zhan Chaoyan's phone number?"
Lu Yang looked at Yin Xian, who was in low spirits, and then at Yin Zijing, who looked helpless. Although he was a little surprised, he still had no intention of giving up.
"It's useless even if you have a phone." Yin Xian looked at Yin Zijing and took out his mobile phone. He shook his head and said, "I heard someone say a few days ago that Lao Zhan ran out of money and went to the United States to invest. He couldn't come back within a month or two.
Come."
When Yin Xian came to Chongshan, Beidu, he didn't have any contact with people in the yamen circle. After all, his small money was nothing in that circle. He had spent the past few days with his old classmates. They all remembered the beauty of the university and expressed the sadness of the current situation. Nowadays, there is no drinking.
Rizi is interesting.
That senior Zhan was very active at MIT, eloquent, and the leader of the international student organization. Now, returning to China to start a business is naturally a topic at old school reunions.
Yin Xian heard people mention Zhan Chaoyan's current situation more than once. It turned out that the guy returned to China last year and was said to be the chief representative of a foreign company in China. He later started a company himself. It was said that he wanted to start something like the Internet.
It's just that the roads are not repaired right now, so whether you want to build a car or transport goods, there is no way.
Zhan Chaoyan spent a lot of money, but the company had no business at all and was just a joke among a bunch of old classmates.
The promotion of "Digital Survival" is a good thing, but if Yin Xian wants to deal with a bunch of yamen, his head will be as big as Nanshan. It is better to let his sister and Lu Yang take care of this kind of thing. I have to thank Bumin.
"Yin Xian is a little depressed."
At the entrance of the tea restaurant, Lu Yang and Yin Zijing stood side by side. He watched Yin Xian leave in a hurry and couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't have much contact with this uncle Su Shu, but Lu Yang also knew that his personality was quite strange, but he didn't expect that his personality had quite a lot of negative aspects.
"Because he has no goals."
Yin Zijing felt regretful in her heart. She sighed and looked into Lu Yang's eyes next to her.
A child who is only sixteen years old and has just graduated from junior high school, but his eyes are always so determined, and there is no trace of confusion at any time. It seems that no matter today, tomorrow or the distant future, he knows exactly how to take his own path. This kind of
Determination is the most admirable quality of Lu Yang.
"Yeah, I understand."
Lu Yang nodded. When he saw Yin Zijing was startled, he nodded seriously and said with a smile, "I really understand."
I used to be much more confused than Yin Xian. I was ignorant in elementary school, cynical in junior high school, dull and boring in high school, and confused in university.
But now that he knows the direction, Lu Yang will not hesitate every step he takes, and he has enough motivation to persevere.
This kind of life is indeed very interesting.
"What should I do now? I should be able to find someone to contact Mr. Negroponte. I wonder if he is willing to come to China."
Yin Zijing raised her brows and resisted the urge to rub her little face. She looked up at Lu Yang, who was getting taller and taller, without moving away from his breath.
"It is said that Negroponte is very interested in China, but it is best to talk to Zhan Chaoyan first. After all, it is more suitable to communicate with an acquaintance."
Lu Yang naturally took Yin Zijing's elbow, and the two left the entrance of the tea restaurant and took a walk along a secluded tree-lined path.
"That's okay, but it will be at least next month until Zhan Chaoyan comes back. During this time, I will first find an Internet company CEO. Let me think about how to find a suitable one."
Yin Zijing frowned and began to think. She had not yet used her family's network, so she was constrained everywhere. Naturally, she would not hesitate when necessary.
"I do know a ready-made one. She should be very interested in this matter."
Lu Yang smiled after saying that. After thinking hard for so long, and talking to Yin Xian just now, the name of that person finally came to his mind.
To say that that company will soon be much more famous than Zhan Chaoyan's company, Lu Yang will certainly not forget those three words, but he just can't remember the name of the company's boss at the moment.
"Who is it?"
Yin Zijing looked at Lu Yang and asked calmly. Although she was used to the other person knowing everything, she still couldn't help feeling that she sometimes looked so weak in front of this boy.
"A female student body president, you may also know her name."
Lu Yang smiled and took Yin Zijing's hand, beckoning for a taxi.
