I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

"Sorry, I really can't remember who you are." Chen Xi looked at the other Asian faces. They didn't look like Chinese, but more like ABCs.

The ABCs he knew in Australia did not have these people at all.

"We have never met, so it's normal that you don't know us. My name is Lucas, and my Chinese name is Huang Litian. This is..."

"Alex!" The white man wearing sunglasses stepped forward and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Chen Xi.

"Hello, what's the matter?"

"Nothing, I just want to play ball together, don't you mind? Let's chat about other things while we're at it."

"Ok?"

Faced with this somewhat outgoing white man, Chen Xi also became interested, so he nodded.

"I'm from Canada, and some of these friends are from the United States and some are from the United Kingdom." Alex said as he began to wipe the club.

"Are you coming to Australia for tourism?"

"I guess so, but coming to the billiard room is not accidental."

"Did you come to see me on purpose?"

"Yes."

"How did you know I was coming here tonight?"

"Secret!" Alex raised the corner of his mouth and hit the ball hard.

The balls on the table immediately scattered under the fierce attack of this foreigner.

But not a single ball was pocketed.

Saori, who was standing aside, was secretly delighted. Chen Xi was playing billiards with others, so of course she had to cheer for her boyfriend.

"Then what exactly do you want to talk to me about?" Chen Xi casually hit a ball into the pocket, slowly changed his position and asked slowly.

"What do you think of the current virtual digital currency?" Alex put the club on the ground.

"It's nothing, it's just a new form of currency that has emerged in response to the times." Chen Xi answered casually.

"Oh?"

"To put it simply, virtual digital currency is a medium of exchange that is secure, traceable and highly anonymous, based on complex encryption algorithms and decentralized blockchain technology, using specific network protocols. It is different from traditional physical currency or electronic currency because it does not rely on any central bank or financial institution to issue or manage it, but is maintained and verified by the entire network community." Chen Xi added another sentence when he saw that the foreigner was not very satisfied with his answer. He pointed to the table, indicating that the opponent was already two goals behind.

"In fact, the prototype of digital currency appeared a long time ago. For example, the predecessor of Bitcoin, a concept called 'BitGold', although it was not actually implemented, it laid the foundation for later cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. The emergence of Bitcoin, a truly widely recognized digital currency, not only created a new financial field, but also triggered widespread discussion and controversy around the world. What do you think?" Alex asked as he picked up a long stick and accurately hit a ball.

"The value of Bitcoin is still very low now. Although it has some investment properties, it doesn't seem to be much at the moment." Chen Xi naturally didn't want to say too much.

"Really? Since there is no investment value, why did you buy so much in large quantities?" Alex got close to Chen Xi and whispered in his ear.

"You... I don't know what you are talking about." Chen Xi was shocked, but still pretended to be calm.

"Don't be nervous, I don't mean any harm. I just want to see what you think about this virtual currency. What other uses do you think it can have?" Alex smiled and took advantage of the opportunity when Chen Xi made a mistake due to distraction to score another goal.

"Currency, in essence, is a medium for transactions. Virtual currency, on the vast stage of the Internet, can theoretically facilitate any form of transaction, but all of this is based on its actual value, such as establishing a stable value relationship with certain physical currencies or assets." After Chen Xi calmed down, he started playing again.

"So what do you think this virtual currency can be exchanged for? Nifcoin? Australian dollar?"

“Why does it have to be legal tender?”

"Oh? What else do you think it could be?" Alex blinked at Chen Xi.

"You already know the answer yourself, why do you need to ask me? I'm actually very curious as to how you know all my information so well."

"Haha, I won!" Alex did not explain, but put away his previous lazy look, and his aura suddenly changed.

He picked up the long club and slammed all the remaining balls into the hole in one breath.

"See you next time!" Amid everyone's puzzled gazes, Alex waved his hand with his back to them and strode out of the billiard room with the others.

"Who is this person? Wearing sunglasses so late at night, is he mentally ill?" Dongdong asked after the person left.

"I don't know." Chen Xi shook his head.

"Did Ergou pay? He didn't run away with the bill, did he?" Sangou poked the person next to him.

"I gave...an extra hundred yuan tip." Ergou took out a green hundred-dollar bill.

Chen Xi picked it up and began to observe it under the light.

I saw a letter B drawn on the green hundred-dollar bill with a pencil, and a bunch of question marks next to it.

"What does this mean?" Xiao Ming asked after taking the money.

"Have you two told anyone about buying virtual currency?" Chen Xi pulled the two aside and asked in a low voice.

"Of course not." They both shook their heads.

In fact, Chen Xi knew that they would not tell anyone, but he still wanted to ask.

Now, he was even more certain that the foreigner just now was no simple person.

Chen Xi’s guess was correct. The identity of the foreigner just now was indeed not simple.

He was a mysterious man who was followed by people from all over the world in his previous life.

"I thought you were so powerful, but you lost to a white man." Jin Nana folded her arms and raised her head.

When they came, Dongdong and Xiaoming kept saying that Chen Xi was very good at billiards. He could always hit the ball into the hole with a powerful move for some reason.

"Didn't you still lose to Saori~" Chen Xi laughed.

"I let her do that..." Jin Nana said stubbornly.

"What were you two talking about just now? I seemed to hear words like virtual currency." Gouzi scratched his head.

Chen Xi and Alex spoke very quietly just now, and the others didn't hear the specific content at all.

"Well, it's a long story. There are quite a lot of people here." Chen Xi looked at the people around him.

Because Kim Nana and Saori are so beautiful, many men were distracted from playing ball and were all stealing glances at them.

"Let's talk inside." Gou Zi pointed to the office next door. This was where he used to discuss business and the sound insulation was very good.

Jin Nana was not interested in listening to any business talk. She asked Xiao Ming to put the ball in place and continued to practice with Saori.

At this time, a man and a woman walked into the billiard room, immediately attracting a lot of people's attention.

"Baby, every time I come to the billiard room, there are always a bunch of little girls looking at me! What do you think, your husband is still very handsome, right?"

"Haha, there are obviously a bunch of handsome guys looking at me."

"Don't be so stubborn. I'll show you how powerful I am tonight."

"Oh, I'm so scared." Liya looked at Ouyang Ming and made a frightened gesture.

The two of them usually like to do this, and they are flirting all the time.

Both of them felt that it was interesting to do this, otherwise couples would get bored after being together for a long time.

"Hey, you two are here too." Liya saw Saori and Kim Nana playing billiards and immediately ran over to say hello. The three women were also familiar with each other and played well, so Liya also joined the billiard battle.

"Where's Gouzi?" Ouyang Ming ran to the freezer and took a bottle of drink, then looked at the three dogs at the front desk.

"Brother Ou is here, Brother Gou and Brother Xi are discussing something in the office!"

"Talk about things? You mean business, right? Okay, you didn't even call me when you have good news." After hearing this, Ouyang Ming strode towards the office in a hurry.

“This virtual currency…”

"Click."

In the office, Chen Xi, who was speaking, was interrupted by the sound of a door opening.

"What big business are you two planning? Why don't you call me?" Ouyang Ming questioned the two as soon as he entered the door.

"Brother Ou, you still dare to do business? If I were you, I would have stayed at home and taken a break." Chen Xi smiled as soon as he saw Ouyang Ming.

If a normal person is caught by the police twice for doing business, most of them will stay quiet for a while. But Ouyang Ming is just the opposite. The more he is hurt, the happier he becomes.

His personality is a bit like Chen Caiyue in his previous life. He didn't care at all after being cheated, and he didn't learn his lesson even after being beaten.

"Hahaha, I won't miss the opportunity to make money! A man should be brave and fight!" Ouyang Ming put his hands on his hips and raised the drink in his hand with great pride.

Seeing how cocky he was, he had completely forgotten what happened before.

"We are talking about new things, Brother Ou, you don't understand." Gou Zi also laughed out loud.

"New stuff, I don't understand it? You underestimate me. I study new ways to make money online every day. Tell me, is there anything I don't understand?"

"Hey, what we are talking about is quite special and not suitable for you to play." Chen Xi shook his head.

Playing with virtual currency is just like speculating in stocks. With Ouyang Ming's impatient personality, he is not suitable for this line of work.

"Special thing, what is that? Contraband?"

"No, it's virtual currency..." Seeing that Ouyang Ming was not giving in, Chen Xi had no choice but to give the answer.

"Virtual currency? Virtual currency is great, we have to do it." Unexpectedly, this guy immediately became excited after hearing this.

"Brother Ou, do you know what virtual currency is?"

"I know. The teacher talked about it in class. It's similar to game coins. But it doesn't seem to be worth much now because everyone thinks it's a useless virtual item." Ouyang Ming didn't know much. He was daydreaming during class and only understood the general idea.

"Oh, forget it. Let me talk to you..." Chen Xi sighed and started teaching Ouyang Ming.

An hour later, in a residential area in Huajing.

Lin Xi walked out of the bathroom, wiped her hair, and threw the towel on the chair next to her.

"This Zheng Wei is so annoying. He has instigated everyone in the association to take the civil service exam. He knows nothing at all. Most of the people who study abroad come from business families. Their parents want them to take over their business after returning home. Who would want to get a job in the civil service?

A layman is a layman.

Oh, forget it. Just let these officials be happy, as long as they don't cause trouble..."

Linxi kept complaining, reached out and grabbed the mouse to start processing the file.

“Fuck, this crappy computer antivirus software is so disgusting. It automatically installs some rogue software for me from time to time. I delete it and install it again! Fuck!” Lin Xi looked at the pop-up ads that appeared on her computer, causing it to freeze, and she knocked on the table in anger.

"Finally closed! I want to uninstall this shitty antivirus software!"

"Fuck, I have to fill out a questionnaire to uninstall. What's the reason? Why did I uninstall? Don't you have a clear idea? Damn, why is it stuck again? This is really a rogue software. It won't even let me uninstall. The progress is stuck at 99%."

ten minutes later……

Lin Xi looked at the prompt box that indicated the successful uninstallation and smiled with satisfaction. He silently lit a cigarette: "I finally quit smoking before, but I have too many worries recently and started smoking again. Hey~ What is this..."

When he opened the browser, a window suddenly popped up on the computer screen, which seemed to be a dialog box.

A text suddenly appeared: "Do you wish to understand the meaning of life? Do you aspire to truly live? "

Stupid, what the hell is this?

Is there a virus in your computer?

A prank game?
Linxi smiled and typed "No" on the keyboard.

However, just when he thought it was just a special web ad pop-up, a reply actually appeared on it.

"Hello, Linxi, the president of the Young Returnees Association. Born in XXXX, graduated from XXXX..."

Lin Xi looked at the text in shock. It turned out to be his specific information, even his parents' detailed information was listed.

"Fuck, who are you?" He typed a line of words while cursing.

Everyone has privacy, and anyone would be angry if they encountered such a situation. But they actually investigated the information of their family members. Isn't this definitely crazy?

"You can call me Dark. Don't be nervous. I mean no harm to you. I want to see what you think about virtual currency?" There was another reply in the dialog box soon.

You investigated me so much without any ill intention?
Are you trying to blackmail me? Be careful or I will call the police.

Although Linxi was very business-minded, she still calmed down and replied to her opinion on virtual currency.

There was silence for a long time. Just when Lin Xi thought there was no further news, another paragraph of words appeared on the screen.

“Do you want to create a new world?”

I'll fuck you!

I didn’t watch any unhealthy movies, so how could a Trojan horse be planted in my computer?
Do you think I'm a pigeon?
Damn hacker, if you want to play tricks on me, I will play with you!

Lin Xi did not answer yes or no, but replied: "I only care about what benefits I can get. Don't pretend to be mysterious. You are just a hacker~"

The person on the other end of the network couldn't help but chuckle when he saw this text. He didn't expect this person to be so straightforward.

"Why are you so obsessed with getting benefits, power? Money? What's the meaning of these?"

"Now I'm asking you, not you asking me. Didn't you say you wanted to create a new world? Tell me what the new world is. Have you watched too many science fiction movies and your brain is a little abnormal?" Lin Xi calmed down and turned from passive to active.

Ten minutes later, just when Lin Xi was getting a little impatient, there was finally a reply on the computer: "You may have misunderstood what I meant. The new world I'm talking about is not the utopia or other world in science fiction, but a profound change based on the existing world, especially in the monetary trading system.

Today's currency trading system is primitive and limited. Although legal tender is widely accepted as a medium of exchange, its circulation speed and flexibility are limited by many factors, including policy, region, trust, etc. Many valuable resources, information and services are difficult to measure and exchange directly with legal tender in reality, which limits the efficiency and scope of transactions.

The emergence of virtual currency is to break these restrictions. Based on blockchain technology, they achieve decentralization, anonymity and immutability, making transactions more efficient, transparent and secure. Through virtual currency, people can directly exchange value across geographical, cultural and legal boundaries. Whether it is digital assets, intellectual property rights, or other non-material values, they can find a fair trading platform.

The new world I envision is a global integrated market based on virtual currency, combining artificial intelligence, big data and Internet of Things technologies.

In this market, the flow of information and the exchange of value will no longer be controlled by any single institution or country, but will be jointly maintained and managed by all participants. This will greatly promote innovation and the optimal allocation of resources, making the economy more prosperous and society more equitable..."

Looking at this text, Lin Xi frowned slightly.

As a highly educated overseas returnee, he has more knowledge in his mind than ordinary people.

Dark's words were like an inspiration, giving Linxi a bold idea in an instant.

However, Lin Xi still thought this matter was too simple. He had no idea who Dark was...

How can a person who is the focus of attention of many countries around the world be a character that can be easily exploited by others? (End of this chapter)
