Chapter 21 The most correct choice

After the recording was completed, post-production actually didn't take much time. Under the urging of the Nan brothers, the single was released in just three days.

"It's amazing speed."

After working in the capital for so many years, I still have some ability. Not to mention orderly, at least the goods are being distributed smoothly.

It's unclear what the situation is outside the capital, but at least in the land beneath our feet, the propaganda campaign is relatively effective.

Taxi drivers, who are big listeners to radio stations, were impressed by the song "Men Should Be Strong", which became popular overnight. Not many people cared about the songwriter and performer behind the scenes, but Dai Yiqin, a has-been star, has indeed become famous.

"The youth of a generation, I thought he had retired from the entertainment industry, but it turned out he was still singing! I haven't heard much news in these years, why did he go there?"

Speaking of generations, Dai Yiqin is only in his early thirties. It feels like a long time has passed because he became famous too early.

It is different from the routine of forming a team to get traffic at the age of thirteen or fourteen, wishing that you would start buying hot searches in your mother's womb. The prejudice of being smooth-talking and being ineffective in doing things is deeply rooted. The music and film worlds are full of big brothers and big sisters, and there are no "four great beauties".

","Four big and small students" and other gimmicks can be hyped.

On the way to the vehicle management office to handle license plates and other procedures, the talkative brother from Jingcheng showed Jin Shang what "professionalism" is. During the twenty-minute drive, he kept talking non-stop. He spent most of the time chatting about "A Man Is a Man".

"Self-improvement" and the topic of Dai Yiqin.

Jin Shang, who chimed in a few words from time to time, had a smile on his face and felt confident in his heart.

"It's done! Once you have a popular base, it will only happen sooner or later. It depends on whether it is a big fire or a small fire, and how prosperous it will be."

After arriving at the vehicle management office, it took him more than half an hour to get everything done, and then Jin Shang drove a sexy red off-road vehicle to school.

Today's college graduates rarely fail to obtain a diploma, but if they fail too many subjects, are punished, or fail to pass their graduation thesis, the consequences will be extremely tragic.

The brothers and sisters who are about to graduate have been questioned by the defense teacher, or have been caught by the excuse. They don’t know how to find excuses to excuse themselves. What should they do?

Teachers also know that undergraduate theses are mostly made up of nonsense. Many times they ask questions not to embarrass students, but to casually say something that is an eyesore and won’t delve into it as long as they have a decent excuse.

Even if it's just going through the motions, you still have to look good, right?

But if you really can't get off the stage in front of everyone, someone will have to hand you a ladder, and both parties can end up with dignity.

As long as it's not too bad, the school won't really stick to graduation thesis, and it's not a glorious thing to have ineffective students.

People like Jin Shang, who have dual identities as both students and teaching assistants at certain times, can help smooth things over at the appropriate time.

"In a few years, there won't be such a good thing. The Internet has given everyone a convenient way to look up information, and it has also blocked the possibility of piecing together papers to fool the instructor."

It was different having a car and a certificate. I happily drove to the school, found a less eye-catching place to park my car, and then happily went to the laboratory building.

In a little while, the first batch of thesis defenses will begin.

Holding a batch of bound thesis books in his arms, Jin Shang came to the large conference room and contacted his supervisor Lu Wei. Along the way, he did not have time to say hello to Li Xuan who was waiting in the preparation room.

"I'm finally here. I haven't seen you show up for many days. Jin Shang, what have you been doing these days?"

Teacher Lu pretended to be angry and took a large pile of papers and distributed them to other graduate assistants for review.

"Household chores are complicated, not troublesome, but quite time-consuming."

Lu Wei is a female professor in her forties. In addition to teaching, she also has some research projects, school-enterprise cooperation projects assigned above, and scientific research commissioned by the government.

Without a large number of young and powerful workers like Jin Shang, who work hard and receive almost no pay, it would be impossible to take care of both tasks just by relying on individual efforts. What's more, we also have to deal with frequent surveys and inspections from the college, the school, and the superior departments.

.

Several brothers and sisters who are five or six years older than Jin Shang are obviously looking a lot more haggard these days, and they have spent a lot of time preparing for this graduation defense.

It's a bit strange to say that the society always likes to regard urban planning as a liberal arts major. In fact, this field is really an out-and-out science and engineering field. It seems to be based on this cognitive bias, plus the fact that Beijing Normal University is a bit shady.

The trend of yang decline has resulted in significantly more female students applying for this major.

It stands to reason that after being a boss for a period of time, he should have cultivated some aggressive spirit without anger and self-power. Unfortunately, students who have not yet stepped out of the ivory tower have little knowledge and cannot sense the majesty of Mr. Xiao Jin.

Especially some shameless female hooligans, they are still the same as before, always thinking about teasing Jin Shang.

As everyone knows, the edge of a sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold!

Mr. Jin is no longer the little brother he once was, so he is still afraid of these unscrupulous female fairies?

Jin Shang, who was sitting upright, focused on business and watched each of his junior students finish their graduation defense. It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon.

After saying goodbye to Professor Lu Wei and other graduate students, I made an appointment with Li Xuan and went to the "Zuijiangyue" restaurant for a delicious meal.

"Thesis defense, what did Teacher Lu say?"

"I didn't say anything, don't worry! If there is any problem, I will definitely be asked to contact the person involved."

"Return to the client, are you treating the student in question as a criminal suspect?"

"Nothing else, just said it casually. By the way..."

Jin Shang took a sip of juice, pushed down the roasted chicken in his mouth, and then asked seriously,

"What's the result of what I asked you to ask?"

"Don't worry, the situation is not what you imagined."

Li Xuan responded well prepared,

"I don't know the specifics. According to Li Rong from the girls' department, I consulted a teacher from the School of Computer Science. It's not difficult to develop an Internet-based communication software. The prerequisite is that you just send text messages to each other.

."

"Is it easy?"

"The related technology seems to have appeared before, but there was no Internet at that time. Direct communication between two computers can be realized in the existing Internet communication protocol."

"I... probably understand."

Internet technology as a whole shows a trend of multi-point flowering and comprehensive development. Many technologies were born very early and have no place to be used because other software and hardware conditions cannot keep up. This is normal.

Maybe in a few years or more than ten years, someone will dig them out of the technical reserves and make them shine.

Just like Microsoft and Apple in the previous life took turns to be kings, Intel, Qualcomm and Nvidia took turns to take over.

Generations of versions and generations of gods, as long as you have the core technology in hand, it doesn't matter if you stay dormant for a while. When your time comes, you can draw your sword and look around, killing indiscriminately.

Jin Shang is thinking about his family's future, and is he just worried about not having enough money to burn?

The biggest hidden worry is the lack of core competitiveness.

Relying on the fans of the football club, Jin Shang has managed to gather a group of high-quality leeks who have money, leisure, and are willing to spend money for their hobbies. However, Jin Shang has been thinking of many feasible ways to retain them for a long time.

The portal website that is about to step onto the stage of history is just a flag for the princes and a symbol of self-reliance. If it wants to be prosperous for a long time, it must occupy at least one supreme point in the fields of instant messaging, search engines, e-commerce and social media.

Due to the insufficient number of Internet users and insufficient infrastructure construction, social media has no foundation for spreading;

In the early days, e-commerce was not very competitive and relied on burning money to survive. It was not a good time to start;

Search engines are technology-intensive enterprises. The ultimate goal of real high-tech is artificial intelligence. If you want to enter the industry, you must have technology, money and connections, otherwise, there is no chance!

I can barely finish early, but I won't be too far ahead. The only thing I can do is instant messaging.

As long as you are the first to establish an online friend circle and build a complete relationship network, it will be difficult for latecomers to pry users even if they want to spend money. As long as the first movers do not mess up their position, latecomers will have almost no chance.

From Li Xuan's explanation, Jin Shang also understood that making a simple instant messaging software is much less difficult than developing browsers, anti-virus software, search engines and document office software.

But, does it make sense to develop instant messaging software now?

There are probably only a few hundred thousand computers in China, and most of them are concentrated in major universities, laboratories and high-tech companies. Jin Shang had to change his shoes when entering the computer room to prevent him from bringing in too much dust when he took relevant elective courses at the university.

, damaging expensive precision equipment.

It was with this condition in mind that Jin Shang dared to set the fee for using the Internet cafe at 30 yuan an hour. Whether you like to play or not, after passing this village, there really is no such store.

Instant messaging is the Internet segment that most needs first-mover advantages. Based on the current development status of the domestic Internet, it is certain that once it goes online, there will be no competitors within two years, and there is no need to deliberately promote it. You can only use this

One, because I have no choice.

"Do you want me to inquire again?"

"No."

Li Xuan also wanted to find someone else to ask. Jin Shang, who had a little idea, decided to personally talk to the school about "school-enterprise cooperation". In the past, he also commissioned customized chess and card game software, but it was all a small matter.

Although it is noisy, it has also established a basic mutual trust, and there is a practical basis for strengthening ties.

Although Jin Shang's small company is not well-known, it is very refreshing to give money.

Since the concept of instant messaging has appeared for nearly thirty years, there are mature cases of related applications in scientific research institutes, engineers and professional technical circles. To develop Internet-based instant messaging software, as long as the technology that meets the requirements is integrated, adaptation is considered.

The international Internet protocol group can quickly produce products that meet the minimum requirements of Jinshang.

At about the same time in the previous life, four college students who used love to generate electricity were able to tinker with ICQ in three months. Jin Shang spent money to hire a team from a top university to customize it as required. Is it difficult?

Now in 1995, it is indeed a bit early to engage in instant messaging. However, as Zheng Liangzhi warned some time ago, good rain is coming, and the sky will already be covered with dark clouds. If you really wait until the wind comes, you will have no technical accumulation.

, and secondly, if you don’t have the ability to burn money to grab users at any cost, how can you stand out from a large number of competitors?

In the age of the barbaric growth of the Internet world, competition was also terrifyingly cruel. There were strong winds and waves. No matter how ambitious you were or how grand your future plans were, if you didn’t build a moat in advance, you wouldn’t even know how you would die.

"Is this...instant messaging really useful? I also asked some students in related majors, and most of them don't think highly of this gadget."
