Rebirth 84, starting from fish farming

Chapter 473 Preparation
Lu Changhua took them to the Asian Games Village and checked out the office space.

"How about it?"

"It's nice here."

Although Gu Hua and Zhao Hongxia joined the same company at the same time, there was a salary difference of 500 yuan.

He was holding back a feeling in his heart that he would surpass her sooner or later.

"Mr. Lu, although this place is nice, it is far away from Zhongguancun, so I am afraid it lacks the high-tech atmosphere of the Internet!"

Gu Hua did not flatter his boss, but put forward different opinions.

"Yeah. What you said makes sense."

Lu Changhua first confirmed Gu Hua's statement.

Then she smiled and asked Zhao Hongxia.

"What do you think?"

"Mr. Lu, I think exactly the opposite."

"Oh? Then tell me."

"Mr. Lu, this is how I understand it."

Zhao Hongxia straightened her face and said: "Based on the Internet knowledge you have shared with us, I think since we are communicating with netizens on the Internet, it doesn't really matter where our company is."

"unimportant?"

Gu Hua asked unconvinced: "Then what's important?"

"As long as it can be connected to the Internet and moved to the main line, it will be fine."

"Although the Asian Games Village has a small population, the transportation is convenient and it is convenient for employees to commute to and from get off work."

"If we were crowded in Zhongguancun, not only would the traffic be congested, but the rent would also be very expensive."

"As for the atmosphere issue, I think it is important. But for the atmosphere, the cost we have to pay is too high."

Zhao Hongxia's words left Gu Hua speechless.

Lu Changhua nodded and said, "Then let's settle here."

In the management office, Lu Changhua occupied two floors.

The ninth and tenth floors.

The ninth floor is used as offices, and the tenth floor is used as the technical department and computer room.

Office confirmed.

Necessary renovations will need to be made.

Fireproof wallpaper was put on the walls and the power cords were re-routed.

Especially the tenth floor.

The electrical wiring on the tenth floor was replaced.

All were replaced with eight square power cords.

During the renovation period, they went back to the hotel to work.

Other personnel are also arriving one after another.

The people from the technical department are here first.

Lu Changhua asked them to plan a plan to build a large-scale website for the whole country.

The main functions are divided into several blocks.

The first is the news section.

This is not difficult, you just need to cooperate with the relevant media.

In fact, in this day and age, news can be excerpted at will.

Whether you cooperate with the media or not has little to do with it.

The second section is the chat room.

This section is very important.

It is the only advanced platform that allows interaction between netizens.

The third section is the email system.

The sections of the portal are basically these, very simple.

Lu Changhua not only considered these, he also proposed many new things.

For example, simple video games.

For example, users can be provided with free cloud disk storage.

For example, software that can transfer files to each other, etc.

The people in the technical department were very confused when it came to these things proposed by the boss.

Because they haven't seen many of them.

However, China has no shortage of talents, especially in Beijing.

As long as you are willing to pay, someone will do it.

The technical department found more than a dozen experts through their own contacts, and together with their own people, formed a Soxin engineering team.

Now in the temporary office, platform development is started.

So for the page design of the website, teachers from the Central Academy of Fine Arts were hired at a high price to design page by page.

The main colors of Soxin are warm tones, and the three colors of red, yellow and orange are the company’s standard colors, which are also reflected in the design of the page.

The renovation took two months, as did the hardware procurement and software writing.

In the middle, Lu Changhua went home twice.

After staying at home for a few days, he returned to the capital.

The financial department of Souxin Company is composed of financial personnel from Changhe Group transferred by Wang Yao.

She also served as the financial officer of the letter search company.

Early August.

The technical department began to test-run the website on computers.

Preliminary revisions were made.

In the middle of the year, the company's scattered office departments moved into the Asian Games Village.

At the end of August, the technology department ran the "Xinxin Search Network" on the company's internal LAN.

More than 300 computers are connected to the company-wide LAN and access the website at the same time.

Souxin.com is running well, there is no lag, and the background data is displayed normally.

The News Department and the Art Department have added a lot of content to the website, including a lot of text and pictures.

Run again, no problem.

Then, Soxin Company sent the IP address of the website to some units and asked them to cooperate in the trial operation.

Backend data shows that during the same time period, a total of nearly [-] IPs logged into the website.

At this time, the time has come to mid-September.

The wheat in my hometown is about to be harvested.

After consulting with the technical department, Lu Changhua announced that it would be officially launched on September 24th.

At this time, the website only has three major sections, the news section, the chat room section, and the email section.

By this time, Lu Changhua had invested a lot of money in Soxin.com.

His starting conditions are better than many companies.

It not only has sufficient funds, but also has sufficient manpower, good hardware conditions, and dedicated wires.

From the beginning, the number of people online at the same time was designed to be at the level of one million.

The entire tenth floor is a computer room.

Rows of servers are connected by cables.

There is not only air conditioning in the room, but also a fan.

The temperature here is more than eight degrees higher than on the ninth floor.

It was originally planned that the technical department and the computer room would be on the tenth floor. As a result, the computer room alone would have to be on one floor.

Lu Changhua immediately rented another eleventh floor.

Half of this floor is used for the technical department, and the other half is reserved as space for expansion of the computer room.

People in the technical department are beaming with joy every day.

Why?

Just because these days, there are not many bosses willing to spend so much money on technology.

There are also web animation games, cloud disk and other teams that are also working hard day and night.

The platform interface has been reserved and can be quickly launched as soon as it is developed.

Lu Changhua accompanied Wang Yao to inspect the information gathering company he established himself.

The scale of three floors is already very large in the eyes of ordinary people.

But in Wang Yao's eyes, this is just a small company.

Think about the size of Changhe Group.This company of 600 people is not even comparable to a factory in Changhe.

However, when Lu Changhua asked Wang Yao to sit in front of the computer and enter the website address, a colorful picture popped up, her feeling was different.

The homepage is a Chinese-style ink painting.

A swan goose flies from left to right.

It flaps its wings and travels through the mountains and rivers of the motherland.

Not only are the geese flying, but the landscape pictures are also moving, and the pictures are different.

It's like a movie camera is moving.

When the swan geese flew to the far right side of the screen, several white clouds appeared in the middle of the screen.

The three characters "Souxin.com" appeared in the center of the screen.

There are words written in regular script on the white clouds.

On the first white cloud, there are the words "World Events - Today's News" written on it.

On the second white cloud, it says "Netizens face each other - chat room".

On the third white cloud, it says "The end of the world is just around the corner - free email".

These three white clouds are bright, indicating that these three plates can be used.

There are still a few gray clouds below.

Description has not been opened yet.

"Click to see."

Lu Changhua encouraged.

You know, driven by her husband, Wang Yao got in touch with computers early.

Today's Changhe Group has long been electronic.

Not only were internal documents written and printed, but email was also used at an early stage.

Not unfamiliar with these things.

Including the website of the group company, they also have.

But the Souxin website she saw now was different.

Not only is the design very artistic, it is also very innovative.

So refreshing.

When she clicked on the white cloud of news.

A news page appeared on the screen.

On the header of the page, the word Soxin.com stands out.

The date is next to it: September 1997, 9

There is still time beating below.

"10:05:13"

"10:05:14"

"10:05:15"

The second hand is beating and time is moving forward.

Look at the following, international news, domestic news.

There are also categories of news below.

There are text and pictures.

At the edge of the page, there are a few white clouds floating.

Click the mouse to display the chat room.

Wang Yao clicked in.

You enter an empty page.

A string of text appeared on the screen.

"This is a face-to-face chat room. Please use civilized language and abide by ethics."

A white cloud popped up at the bottom of the screen.

Text appears inside.

"Please enter what you want to say here."

"click here?"

"Ah."

Wang Yao clicked the mouse.

I typed a few words in the white clouds.

"Hello everyone."

After she finished typing, she looked at Lu Changhua.

"Just press enter."

"Oh."

She hit the enter key.

Ding dong.

This sentence appeared on the screen.

Still shining with colorful lights.

After a while, there was a ding-dong sound, and a line of text appeared on the screen.

"Hello there!"

"Oops, is there anyone?"

Wang Yao was panicked.

At the same time, I felt an inexplicable excitement in my heart.

This may be the inner feeling after striking up a conversation with a stranger.

She blushed and looked at her husband and said, "I, I..."

"It's okay, just treat it like meeting and greeting people."

"Look, you can change the name here."

Lu Changhua pointed to the setting items below and said.

"is it?"

Wang Yao clicked on the settings.

Various modifications have appeared in it.

For a moment, she felt excited.

"It's so fun, I really want to keep playing."

"Haha, that's right."

Lu Changhua and the engineers in the technical department burst into laughter.

The chat room is not just for chatting, it is also a basic online real-life game.

This is also Lu Changhua's request.

Not only can everyone set their own avatar, but they can also buy gifts in the chat room.

The gifts include virtual items for girls.

Headband, earrings, necklaces, clothes, pants, shoes, handbags, briefcases, sunglasses.

Later, Lu Changhua will also drive various cars, sports cars, etc.

There is no online payment yet.

So how to buy these virtual items?
Lu Changhua had already thought of a way, which was to sell point cards.

This is the main profit situation of online games after 2000.

Now?

No one knows at all that point cards can be sold for money!

But Lu Changhua knew.

Why sell props in a chat room?
Because he knew the charm of the chat room at this time.

At that time, he chatted with netizens more than 1000 kilometers away in the chat room for a day and a night.

Finally showed up.

This shows the magic of the chat room at this time.

As long as these props can not only be bought but also sold, it will be the prototype of online games.

Although the form is very simple, Lu Changhua knows that this is a channel for monetization.
