Chapter 39: my old boss

Views:

"What's wrong with you kid? Who did you learn from?" I asked, pointing at the cigarette in Guo Qing's mouth. This kid didn't smoke in his previous life!

"Hehe, I just learned it too. How about it, boss, one?" Guo Qing took out a pack of Hongtashan from his pocket.

"Okay, boy, I've already smoked cigarettes worth 10 yuan!" I waved my hand and refused. I still want to quit smoking.

"My younger brother is filial." Guo Qing said triumphantly.

"Why did you hand in the paper so quickly?" I saw that he followed me and handed in the paper.

"My brain is not made for studying at all! I've made up my mind, and I won't study after graduating from high school. The university is not for people like me!" Guo Qing threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out.

"What can you do if you don't study?" To be honest, I really hope that my best friend can go on the right track and get admitted to a good university.

"People like me can't study well, so I can only rely on my own hands to work hard in society. Otherwise, what else can I do!" Guo Qing laughed at himself.

"I hope you chose the right path. But no matter what, Guo Qing, you will always be my Liu Lei's brother!" I know that once some things change, they cannot be undone.

"Boss, you are my boss for the rest of my life!" Guo Qing also said excitedly.

"It's been a long time since we went to eat together?" I said after a while.

"Let's go, the old place!" Guo Qing smiled and came with me to the small restaurant that we always went to when we started school—Juyuan Snacks.

"Boss, fry shredded pork with fish flavor, and a cold dish. Two bottles of beer!" I said.

"Boss, do you drink too?" Guo Qing said in surprise.

I laugh while saying nothing.

That evening, I got a call from a representative of M Soft.

"Hi, hello, I'm a representative from M Soft Company, my surname is Xu." Said the other end of the phone.

When I heard this voice, I was very excited. This person is my old boss Xu Zhongbang, one of the current executive vice presidents of M Soft China. When I graduated and joined M Soft, Xu Zhongbang had already become the president, and it was precisely because of his appreciation that I was able to climb up to a high position step by step, and became the president of M Soft China in the year he retired.

Xu Zhongbang, in my previous life, he and I were superior and subordinate in name, but in fact they have always been a teacher and a friend. A college student who has just graduated is struggling in the big environment of Msoft. Xu Zhongbang always helps and guides me tirelessly. It can even be said that without Xu Zhongbang, there would be no future me. After he retired, I often visited his home as a guest, and I always regarded him as my mentor. But now, he and I have to sit at the negotiating table at the same time, striving for our respective best interests.

I suppressed the surge in my heart and said calmly: "Mr. Xu, hello."

"I don't know if Mr. Liu is free tomorrow. Let's make an appointment to meet and discuss cooperation on your operating system." Xu Zhongbang said.

"Okay, let's meet at the entrance of the computer center of Songjiang University at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. There happens to be a computer installed with my operating system." I said.

I have preliminarily finished Windows 98 in more than a month, and passed the test on the 586 computer in the computer room of Songjiang University. I named the operating system Suguang 95.

Xu Zhongbang, a middle-aged man who is about the same age as my father, is in his prime at this time. When I saw him, he was still wearing the black tunic suit he used to wear in his previous life.

I walked over and extended my hand to him and said, "Mr. Xu, hello! I am the authorized agent for this cooperation, Liu Lei!"

"Oh? You know me?" Xu Zhongbang looked at me in surprise.

correct! Xu Zhongbang and I should have never met each other in this life, no wonder he was surprised.

"Vice President Xu of M Soft, I saw your report in the newspaper!" I explained.

Xu Zhongbang immediately said in relief: "So that's the case. I didn't expect Mr. Liu to pay attention to our M soft!"

What he said was obviously a pun. He clearly meant that I paid more attention to news reports, but secretly he meant that I was just targeting them.

"Where, where. Just watch technology news once in a while!" I laughed. Unexpectedly, this old boss from my previous life would confront me one day.

"I think Mr. Liu already knows that we will launch Windows 95 next year?" Xu Zhongbang asked.

"Yes, a friend of mine helped me get the beta version," I said.

"Oh? That's even better. Mr. Liu has seen it, right? Our company's graphics operating system is currently the most advanced operating system in the world. I think Mr. Liu can understand what I mean." Xu Zhongbang said suddenly.

What's the meaning? Is Yelang arrogant? I deliberately asked suspiciously: "Mr. Xu, I don't quite understand what you said."

"Mr. Liu, if the person who develops this system wants to join our M soft company, we welcome it. But there is no need to choose this way!" Xu Zhongbang said.

Only then did I realize that Xu Zhongbang had misunderstood me. But this can’t be blamed on him. When I was in M Soft Company, I encountered many such things. People often approached a certain president, saying that he had developed a set of the world’s most powerful system or software to cause problems. M soft attention, so as to achieve the purpose of job hunting. Of course, he may also be testing my real purpose.

"Mr. Xu, I think we should look at the operating system before making a conclusion!" I smiled.

"Okay!" Xu Zhongbang and I entered the computer room of Songjiang University.

I turned on the 586 computer with the Sugon 95 operating system installed. After the familiar self-test screen, I entered a boot screen that I designed—a glimmer of dawn gradually appeared on the gray sea, and there were several large Chinese characters on it. Dawn Windows OS 95".

In fact, my startup screen looks like an animation, but in fact, the technology of my dawn on the sea is the same as the progress bar of Windows startup, but the form of expression is different. But mine is more attractive.

At first, Xu Zhongbang was a little dismissive, but when he saw the more beautiful and more humanized interface, which resembled Windows 95, he couldn't help being stunned.

"Try it, Mr. Xu." I had expected him to have such a reaction, hum, this is an improved version of Windows 98.

Xu Zhongbang held the mouse with his trembling right hand and opened "My Computer".

Xu Zhongbang, the vice president of M Soft China, is very familiar with the features of the upcoming Windows 95, and the operating system he is operating is more than a step above Windows 95 in terms of interface and functions.

"My God! I want to meet the developer of this system!" Xu Zhongbang said excitedly.

"I don't think it's necessary. This author is a senior member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so it's not convenient to show up. I think Mr. Xu should understand the reason." I said.
