Chapter 320: Meeting the Big Brother (Part 1)(2/2)
After saying that, he directly moved his hands and gave the young man a good beating.
After the bad boys had finished beating him up and everyone left, the young man got up from the ground with a wry smile on his face, looked at the crumpled five dollars in his hand, patted the footprints on his trouser legs, and felt depressed and planned to finish work early.
Because he couldn't speak Cantonese, he was bullied by the locals even for selling pirated CDs, and he failed to make much money.
He couldn't help but recall the time when he had just graduated four years ago. With the aura of a prestigious master's degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology, the salary was naturally not bad, and he was directly assigned to a telecommunications-related public institution.
Relying on knowledge to achieve class crossing is something that many people in this era dream of. The young man is so lucky, but he is not satisfied with this.
The life of a public institution is endless at a glance, and he is restricted by rules and regulations. This is not the life he wants.
People outside the wall want to come in, and people inside the wall want to get out, and young people are the latter.
Without any hesitation, he left his iron job and plunged into the unknown world of the Internet without looking back.
The Internet at the end of the 1990s was far from the excitement it would be more than ten years later. At this time, it was like a blank piece of paper with no signs of development.
But the young man didn't believe in evil, so he bet all his wealth on this at all costs.
Even if there is only a 50% chance of winning, he is still willing to put in 100% effort, just to maximize the 50% possibility.
In this way, he came to Baiyun alone in his twenties and joined a software development company.
The company he worked for at the time mainly developed software related to document management. For young people, this trivial matter was simply a piece of cake.
At this time, the C language had just been born. With strong talent and solid foundation, young people quickly became self-taught, and they themselves relied on their excellent strength to prosper in the company.
In the early days of the development of the Internet, there were many water testers, just like him, who dared to jump into the deep sea of the Internet with a lot of enthusiasm, just like the adventurers who started the Age of Discovery in Europe.
However, not every adventurer can live to the moment of success, and many of them drown.
Unfortunately, the company that young people joined became the earliest cannon fodder of Xia Guo Internet.
The software he and his colleagues worked together to develop failed to be put to use. In the end, the company could not make ends meet and its account was hopelessly empty.
In less than two years, the company could no longer survive and was disbanded.
In an instant, he, the proud son of heaven, became an outcast in an instant, and became unemployed like many laid-off workers.
Without the company to rely on, young people are left alone. In order to make a living, they can only take on private jobs and write programs for others to earn extra money.
Although I don’t earn much, I can at least support myself and not starve to death on the streets. In order to increase my income, I set up a stall at night to earn some extra money.
As a result, he found that he could not make any money by practicing stall work at night, and he was often bullied.
He was thinking about things in his mind, and without stopping, he put the pirated CD into a woven bag and prepared to go back to the rental house.
At this moment, the road in front of him was blocked by someone. When he looked up, he found that it was the bad guys who had just bought and sold the discs forcibly.
However, at this time, they looked frustrated. The one who was eating chewing gum took out all the money in his pocket, threw it in front of the young man, and then ran away. The others also dispersed.
