Return to 2001 to pursue dreams

Xiaobai, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "I have a childhood friend who is on CCTV. Would it be helpful if we asked them to make a documentary and release it to attract social attention?"

Lao Bi slapped his thigh and said: "This is a good idea! You can contact me later and I will talk to the school about organizing a social activity, visiting villages and towns in the west that are short of water, and even doing a fundraiser or something! This matter is very meaningful!"

Gao Hongda also agreed: "This visit is fully sponsored by our canteen! Even if we use the profits of the previous year, we must get the thing done. If I don't have enough money, I will go to charity companies to raise donations!"

Everyone applauded in agreement and said that if volunteers are needed, we must first consider our own people.

Seeing the anger among the people, Gao Hongda swept away all the previous depression. It seemed that this meaningful thing was destined to wait for him to take action! Isn't it just money? We have plenty. It's just not convenient to expose it in front of everyone.

At this party, Gao Hongda got to know several female classmates in the class, which was something he gained. The female classmates are also very enthusiastic about this little rich man, not because he is rich, but because he is not only rich, after all, he is quite handsome, and his words are not annoying.

Before the party ended, Gao Hongda announced to his classmates: A few of us boys have taken out a loan to open an Internet cafe and are preparing to officially open it tomorrow. I invite everyone to experience it today. No one will get a free card later. As long as it is not a weekend, you can come and play at any time. !

The crowd cheered. Several boys who were not pulled into the team by Gao Hongda looked at each other, especially Brother Bao, who asked a little unhappily: "Why don't you take me with you when you open an Internet cafe?"

Xiaobai said jokingly: "I'm afraid your mother-in-law will come to grab the shares!"

Baldy Li said sourly: "I don't think of you as a brother, so why are you trying to get better!"

Lao Bi quickly came to the rescue and said: "None of them have borrowed [-] yuan. If any of you dare to do this, you can also participate!"

Everyone sighed: This is so courageous! However, it is quite a feat to be able to borrow so much!

Brother Bao said angrily: "Then forget it, I can't do this kind of thing!"

With a series of high-end configurations such as fiber optics and large servers, the computer speed is obviously much faster than other Internet cafes. All kinds of games are available without any lag. In the past six months, everyone has been attracted by the masters in the school computer room. The machine was tortured so much that it was slow to react and crashed at every turn.

A signboard has been hung on the outer wall of the Internet cafe. It was obviously arranged by the buddy named Ye Bin, and he didn't ask for money.

Who would have thought that these dozens of students would play in the Internet cafe all night long. Gao Hongda couldn't help but sigh: It's great to be young and full of energy.

In the middle of the night, Gao Hongda still had to take care of the food, and the instant noodles prepared at the counter were all wiped out.

Gao Hongda played until midnight and went to sleep in the lounge, because the Internet cafe will undergo fire and public security inspection tomorrow.

The next morning, the relevant government departments, led by Director Li of the Public Security Bureau, inspected the Internet cafe. Except for the fire department, other departments were just like soy sauce. The fire brigade staff wrote on paper what needed to be corrected. Director Li said a little impatiently: "There's no need to go to such trouble. The boys are very serious about their work. You can just remind them verbally." The fire brigade nodded in agreement. In fact, it's not a big deal. It's just a few more Regarding the issue of fire extinguishers, please remind me that the safety passage is not allowed to be closed during business hours.

The inspection passed smoothly. Gao Hongda knew the rules and secretly sealed red envelopes for everyone who came.

In the afternoon of that day, the Internet cafe held a simple opening ceremony, hung a few red lanterns and set off a few firecrackers, and it was considered open for business. What surprised Gao Hongda was that Li Jie dragged Luo Jianqiang and Master Xu to the scene to congratulate him in person. Secretary Zheng of the development zone also sent someone to send a red envelope, which was quite enough.

Of course, there was a big drink in the evening. Master Xu stared at his apprentice's face for a while and said in an approving tone: "I think the young man has been very lucky recently. He is about to make a fortune, and he may even reach the sky in one fell swoop." !”

Gao Hongda immediately flattered him and said: "Master Fang's discernment, no good thing can be hidden from him. The investment made a year ago has paid off recently, and I can indeed earn more money!" Then he said a little lonely, "Although I am not short now. I have money, but I don’t know why, but I always feel empty and empty. I used to worry about having no money, but now that I have money, I feel a little at a loss. I hope Master can give me some guidance!"

Luo Jianqiang and Li Jie sneered at his words, and Luo Jian said sourly: "You are so hypocritical! How can you not be happy when you have money to spend the day and night?" Li Jie also said sarcastically: "If you think you can't spend the money, I can help!"

The master interrupted them seriously this time and said with a serious face: "Don't interrupt, you two. Do you know why no upstarts last long? Two words, lost! My apprentice is now in the primary stage of being lost. At this time, It’s very easy to take detours, so we can’t pass on bad habits to him.”

Then he turned around and said to his apprentice: "The reason why you are lost is because you can't find your own value in life! According to educated people, the value of life includes contribution to society and society's reward for yourself. How did you get your money? You know it well, and it’s not an exaggeration to describe it as being on the wrong path.”

Gao Hongda was about to defend himself, but Master Xu waved his hand to stop him: "Money comes so easily, but your heart is not relaxed. Many people like you will choose to burn incense and worship Buddha everywhere to make merit. All they want is peace of mind." . Having said that, you should understand how to make yourself feel at ease, right?"

Gao Hongda nodded and said, "Those people burn incense and pray to Buddha to buy peace of mind. Then I will go back to society and do meritorious deeds!"

Master Xu patted him on the shoulder and continued: "The so-called happiness means satisfaction. You have all the good things that others don't have, and you have more that others have. This is happiness. The highest happiness and joy in life is to be needed by others. Just like those women who have lost their footing, they need my money and care, and what I receive is infinite happiness!"

Luo Jianqiang immediately echoed: "I completely agree with this statement! And I am proud of my noble behavior."

After not seeing each other for more than half a month, the old and young men got very drunk. In a state of confusion, Gao Hongda finally accepted the invitation of Lao Luo and Master Xu to experience what they called happiness.
