The rejuvenation of a great nation: from educated youth to national treasure scientist

As Li Chaoxu thought about this, he felt a little excited.

He thought to himself, I have to call the telecom salesperson who called me a few days ago and ask him to get me internet access as soon as possible!

After this news is broadcast today, it is estimated that many units and individuals across the capital will apply for network access.

By that time, I guess we will have to queue.

Li Chaoxu still remembers the time when he connected to the landline telephone.

At that time, installing a landline was really expensive!

The initial installation fee is more than 3 yuan.

Moreover, you need to wait in line.

The people at the post and telecommunications service have almost no service attitude.

He had to wait nearly a month to install the phone.

He still remembers this vividly!

Thinking of this, Li Chaoxu picked up his mobile phone and called Master Guo who had contacted him.

When the other party came to solicit business, he was really enthusiastic and gave me a business card.

The business card has the company’s landline number and his own cell phone number.

Master Guo also said that his mobile phone can be used 24 hours a day.

As long as there is a need, just call.

Li Chaoxu thought, let’s give it a try.

He dialed Master Guo's cell phone number.

By the way, Mr. Guo had just finished watching the 7 o'clock news.

He thought, with this wave of news publicity, people across the country should have a good understanding of the Internet, right?
Next, my business development should be much smoother.

Master Guo is a telecommunications worker responsible for the area near Peking University.

The reason why he is so enthusiastic about his work is mainly because he gets a commission for every network he installs, and the commission is surprisingly not low.

Master Guo is thinking about which customers to visit tomorrow.

He felt that he should give priority to visiting schools such as Peking University and Tsinghua University.

Surely they would be more proactive about accessing the network now?
Thinking of this, he wrote it down in his work notebook.

As he was writing, his cell phone rang.

This phone is provided by the company.

Master Guo immediately perked up.

He quickly answered the phone: "Hello! Xiao Guo from Telecom."

Li Zhaoxu smiled and said, "Hello, Master Guo! I am the owner of Zhaoxu Computer Room. My name is Li Zhaoxu. You were here two days ago. Do you remember?"

Master Guo's heart began to beat wildly.

He thought to himself, why call me at this time?

This must be to access the Internet, right?

The other party’s computer room is quite large!

There are more than two hundred computers.

If everything were connected to the Internet, I would be able to complete the task in no time!

Thinking of this, Master Guo's heart was already burning with excitement.

"Hello, hello! Boss Li, I was thinking of visiting you tomorrow."

"Have you seen the report on the Internet on the 7 o'clock news?"

"I wonder what you have thought about it?"

Li Zhaoxu said: "I hope I can get access to the Internet tomorrow."

“I don’t know if the construction will be difficult.”

“I want all the computers in my computer room to have Internet access as soon as possible.”

Master Guo felt dizzy with happiness.

It’s time for a big job!
This job is really big.

I guess it’s a sweeter job than providing network access to Peking University.

Master Guo smiled enthusiastically and said, "Sure, sure!"

"In fact, the backbone network has now been connected to your outer wall!"

"You just need to connect it indoors, install a modem on each computer, and then connect the computers to use the Internet, haha!"

"I estimate that if I take a few people with me, it will take at most an hour to get everything done."

Li Chaoxu was overjoyed.

The speed of the construction was beyond his expectations.

He originally thought that it would take at least a few days.

"So fast?"

"Do our computers already have the hardware to help us surf the Internet?"

Master Guo said: "It already exists. In fact, have you noticed that even Pangu Browser has it on your computer?"

"Pangu Browser is used to surf the Internet."

“You just need to open the browser and go online as long as you are connected to the Internet.”

"When you open the browser, there will be a navigation page. There are about dozens of websites on it. You can play by clicking on the website. It's really interesting."

"The most interesting thing is: there is a small software called QQ. After downloading it, you can choose to add friends and make friends with netizens from all over the country. It's so interesting, haha!"

Master Guo spoke with great excitement.

Li Zhaoxu said: "Besides the monthly internet fee, there are no other expenses, right?"

Master Guo said: "There are some other fees, that is, the modem. Without this thing, you can't access the Internet."

"Each one is not that expensive. The cheapest one is only 50 yuan."

"Our company will bear the cost of the Internet cable to the home."

Li Zhaoxu said: "Then you guys should be the first to come and install it for me tomorrow."

"Do I need to pay first or something?"

"Do I need to go to your company to handle any procedures?"

Master Guo said: "Boss Li, you are a big customer."

"How about this, don't you know the location of our telecommunications business hall?"

Please go there early tomorrow morning to complete the formalities and pay the fees.

"In addition to the modem fee, you may need to pay at least three months of Internet access fees first. After the payment, we will be the first to start construction for you. We guarantee that you will be the first computer room with Internet access in Chaoyang!"

Li Chaoxu actually knew these things.

However, he still felt a little pain.

This means you have to pay at least 30,000 or 40,000 yuan at one time!

However, this money should be spent!

I have spent the money, and I estimate that I will earn it back in less than a month.

As long as each computer can be used for 20 hours, that's 40 yuan, and he can have a daily turnover of yuan.

So, it's worth it no matter what.

"I just heard you talk about the cheapest modem, Master Guo. So, does the quality of this thing affect your Internet experience?" Li Chaoxu asked.

Master Guo smiled and said, "There should be some difference. A good modem has a faster speed and a faster response to the Internet."

“People who are online should feel better.”

"But since you guys run a computer room, I think the normal ones will do."

"After all, if you use something too expensive, the cost will be a bit high."

Li Chaoxu thought so too.

As long as the impact is not particularly large, save costs first.

Competitors will surely follow.

By that time, I'll fucking use a better one.

"Okay! Then let's do as you say, Master Guo."

"But I have to make sure I'm the first one to get online tomorrow!"

Master Guo patted his chest and made a guarantee.

Master Guo had just put down his phone for a while when it rang again.

This time, it is another unit that requires access to the network tomorrow.

In less than an hour, he received six or seven calls.

I haven’t been able to reach an agreement with any of the companies I’ve approached before because they thought it was too expensive.

Now, after the 7 o'clock news reported on the Internet, people who had previously been unfriendly to him now came to him on their own initiative.

After all, people sensed something from the 7 o'clock news report: the country is going to vigorously promote the Internet.

Moreover, it seems that surfing the Internet is indeed quite interesting.

For example, in the past you would contact your clients via phone or letters, but now you can also do so via email.

In addition, you can add the other party on QQ and keep in touch with them on the Internet. In short, this new thing is indeed quite interesting.

It doesn't seem to be just for personal entertainment.

Master Guo received more than ten calls that night.

He was overjoyed.

A few days ago, he went door to door to ask for help.

Now people are calling me on their own initiative.

After a rough calculation, Master Guo found that he would most likely receive 10,000 or 20,000 yuan in commission next month.

That’s a lot of income.

He was very emotional.

The next morning, Master Guo got up early.

As for Li Chaoxu, he didn't sleep well that night.

He was worried about going to the telecommunications company's service hall to handle business tomorrow.

By the way, Li Chaoxu got up at around 4 o'clock the next day.

It was still completely dark.

Moreover, the weather in winter is bitterly cold.

Li Chaoxu was wearing a thick coat and rode his bicycle to the telecommunications hall.

When we arrived at the destination, it was just a little after 5 in the morning.

However, this place is already crowded with people.

There were dozens of people waiting in line outside the telecommunications service hall.

However, at this time, there are still two or three hours before opening.

Li Chaoxu shook his head and thought to himself, I knew that a lot of people would come here to do business today.

I didn't expect them to come so early.

I thought I was early enough.

There are so many people who came earlier than me.

Isn't this incredible?

He was a little panicked.

He quickly parked the car, locked it, and went to queue up.

Just a little bit more, there were already two more people in front of him.

Li Chaoxu thought, by the time I finish the formalities, it will probably be noon already, right?

However, he had no choice but to continue queuing.

By 6 o'clock in the morning, the queue was already densely packed with hundreds of people.

Li Chaoxu looked at the long snake formation behind him.

He was secretly glad that he had arrived a little earlier this morning.

If we come too late, we will be doomed!
His cell phone rang.

He looked and saw it was Master Guo.

He quickly picked up the phone.

"Hello, Master Guo."

"Boss Li, where are you?"

Li Zhaoxu said: "I am queuing here. It's such a long queue, about a mile long."

Master Guo asked: "What's your ranking?"

Li Chaoxu told the other party.

After a while, Master Guo came over hurriedly.

"Ha! Boss Li, you come quite early." Master Guo said with a smile.

Li Zhaoxu said: "I came a little after 5 o'clock."

"That's it. I already have more than twenty in front of me."

"Master Guo, do you think I can finish this business today?"

Li Zhaoxu said: "It should be very quick."

"We're going to open early soon."

"VIP customers like you can go to the VIP window to handle it."

"What I promised you last night is absolutely fine! Today you will be the first construction customer."

The middle-aged woman in front of Li Zhaoxu asked, "What does that mean? Why is he a VIP? And I'm in front of him, do I have to give way to him?"

Master Guo smiled and explained: "Our VIP customers are those who install 200 computers at a time."

The middle-aged woman was surprised: "Ah? What kind of unit is that? They need to connect more than 200 computers at one time."

Li Zhaoxu smiled and said, "I run a computer room. I have about 260 computers there."

When the woman heard this, she kept silent.

Actually, most of the people queuing up early in the morning are private individuals.

People in public institutions are not so active now.

Unless the leader actively asks or instructs an employee to do this job early.

At 6: in the morning, the telecommunications business hall opened early as expected.

Before that, their respective business personnel had already contacted those people in the queue.

Then enter the business hall in order.

After Li Zhaoxu entered the business hall, he took a look and was shocked. Oh! This business hall is different.

It is completely open, with no partition glass.

Moreover, there are a lot of staff.

There are fully armed security guards in the hall.

Obviously, this was prepared a long time ago.

After Li Chaoxu entered, he was taken to a separate compartment to handle business.

Although he was ranked nearly thirty, he was the first one to get it done.

This time, he paid a total of nearly 4 yuan.

Later, Li Chaoxu was told that the construction workers had been notified and would connect Chaoxu's computer room to the Internet from 9 to 11 today.

Li Chaoxu rode his bicycle back and waited.

In fact, it was not even 9 o'clock yet. It was around 8 o'clock when Master Guo came with the construction workers.

They work very efficiently.

Holes were drilled through the walls to connect the outside backbone network to the computer room, and then network cables were connected to each computer along the roof and the ground.

The masters connected the modem and started debugging the network.

After a short while, all the computers in the computer room were able to access the Internet.

Moreover, the masters also thoughtfully downloaded QQ and some client software on the desktop of each computer.

Li Chaoxu was naturally not idle either.

He quickly asked someone to get a roll-up display stand and a banner.

In addition, the signboard should actually be changed.

It turned out to be the computer room.

Now that it has been upgraded, it must look more upscale, right?

So, Li Chaoxu had the door sign changed to "Chaoxu Computer Internet Cafe".

In addition, a sign was posted at the door saying "Dedicated line internet access, 2.5 yuan per hour."

As a businessman, you must pursue profits.

Li Chaoxu thought, damn it, I spent tens of thousands of dollars on the upgrade, so I must raise the price to make it back!

Now, this should be the only computer room with internet access. Why not seize this opportunity and make some money?

If any of my competitors want to start a price war in the future, I will join them.

In fact, Li Chaoxu has always hoped to set up a computer room association or something, so that everyone can coordinate and unify the pricing. Only in this way can the interests of each small boss be maximized, right?

If we simply engage in a price war, both sides will surely suffer in the end!

It actually took just over an hour to connect to the network.

During busy times, there are always students or people from the surrounding area coming to ask to get on the computer.

These people were very happy when they heard that Chaoxu's computer room would be connected to the Internet.

By the time the construction was completed, Li Chaoxu hadn't even changed his sign yet, but a large number of people had already poured in.

The managers at the bar at the door were all very busy for a while.

By noon, Chaoxu Internet Cafe was already full, and there were people waiting outside the door.

The Spring Festival is approaching, and people are actually already busy preparing for the New Year. Connecting to the Internet has become the hottest topic.

By the way, Jusa Consul Bill Yellen also saw the news that Longguo was going to promote the Internet. After reading the news, he was shocked... (End of this chapter)
