Brightness of Rebirth

The research and development direction of new products has been pulled back a lot by Lu Minglang from certain detours, and Wu Lianling and Lou Qiuxi both think it is feasible for Lu Minglang to optimize their current products.

Around autumn, the new phones will be available.

Qi Zhengtao finally couldn't stand the atmosphere of the basketball club, and he also had a lot of other things to do, so he quit the club directly.

He didn't complain to Lu Minglang again, but this incident also reached Lu Minglang's ears.

Did Lu Minghao want to vent his anger?Lu Minglang thought that he couldn't vent his anger on his father, and he couldn't vent his anger on Han Jiangying, so he could only vent his anger on him.

At this time, next to the restaurant of Happy Canteen, a fast food restaurant with the same exquisite decoration opened quietly.In addition to the different tones and styles of the decoration, almost even the front desk and backstage refer to their store.

There will be imitators, Lu Minglang actually expected this kind of situation long ago, but what is special about that fast food restaurant is that there is a delivery service, and they still pack the food in boxes one by one like other stores in the past. Just pull it to the school and sell it.

The stores are similar, so it is easy to divert people, and the food in the happy dining hall is delicious, and there will be some seasonal innovations every month, but after eating for a long time, I always want to change the taste, even if the taste is even better. Not as good as their store, but the taste is different. As long as the price is not too expensive, many people will still go for a new taste.

Not long after, Lu Minglang discovered that there were a lot fewer students in the store.

I heard that the price of many dishes in the shop next door is five cents cheaper than theirs.Five cents is not much, but everyone wants cheaper, especially students, so of course they can save as much as they can.

There is still a problem with ordering food by phone, that is, you can't know when the things will arrive anytime, anywhere, so this store imitating Lu Minglang's store, after pulling meals to the school gate in the same way as the store here in the past, almost let many, many The students bought their stuff - mainly because it was cheap.

The daily turnover of Happy Canteen has decreased, but it is still very profitable.

When Zhu Meizhen and Sheng Guoqiang had a meeting with Lu Minglang, they mentioned ways to reduce the price.

Lu Minglang shook his head and said, "You can't just think about lowering the price."

Once they lower the price, the other party will also lower the price. When the time comes, they will be dragged to death sooner or later, and even if the other party loses, they will not be able to raise the price again. This is the worst policy, absolutely not like this Do.

Zhu Meizhen said, "Mingming, what can you do?"

Lu Minglang said: "My idea is..." He paused, and said, "Auntie, you have to stay calm for a while, and the quality must not drop during this period of time. After all, the taste of our store is better than theirs. good."

Zhu Meizhen agreed.

Lu Minglang looked at the restaurant next to him called Haoke Canteen, and thought that if there were no accidents, this restaurant should be opened by Shen Yanbin, and Han Jiangying couldn't afford to open a restaurant himself to fight against them, but Shen Yanbin wasted so much energy for what?Is it just to scare him off?

On Wednesday, during the creative club gathering, Lu Minglang proposed to Tang Jinglin the idea of ​​building a food delivery website. Tang Jinglin and Qiu Yadong both thought the idea was good at first, but later they thought it would be a bit troublesome to actually do it.

After hearing this, Qiu Yadong’s first thought was: “If ordering food online, they still have to stare at the computer. Take our school as an example. If it’s the last class in the computer room, ordering a meal is a pleasure. , not many people have computers, so it’s inconvenient to order food online.”

Of course Lu Minglang knows that the current conditions are not enough for a website to thrive, and if it really wants to be big and successful, it must not rely on each store to deliver the goods themselves.Collecting information for stores to join is a big project, so that those stores are willing to enter their address information and so on to join... Many stores may think they are liars.

In addition, the takeaway team needs to pull up.Promote, cultivate...

Everything takes time.

He still has to study now, how can he devote so much energy?

But Lu Minglang said: "You don't have to use a computer, you can use a mobile phone." He said, "I think you can start to think about the model of mobile web pages. In about two months..." After two months, the new smartphone In the mobile phone market, Jiaming can quickly occupy the market.

All the mobile phones that tried to replace the big mobile phone on the market in the past just made the mobile phone smaller and lighter, and the screen for sending text messages was blue and green.

The application of the touch screen is absolutely not yet developed.Internet, communication, and more importantly, popularization—just like in the previous life, some stores would give away mobile phones with rechargeable phone charges. Such mobile phones basically only have basic functions, which is suitable for the style that most people live frugally in this era .

Jiaming Wu Lianling and Lou Qiuxi didn't agree with this activity at first - now their company's team needs a lot of money to make the most basic mobile phone, although they can still earn a lot of money from the activity of charging the phone bill to give away the mobile phone, But what if they all want cheap products instead of high-priced high-end products?

Lu Minglang said about this: "In order to seize the market. And other companies will soon produce mobile phones with similar functions, even more functions than ours..." After a pause, he continued, "People who choose such mobile phones, It’s often people who can’t afford it. They want to have more functions after using it, and then they want to buy better products.”

If there were already giants in the industry at this time, Lu Minglang would not have made such a suggestion to lower Jiaming's B rating.As far as he knew, it was several years after Jiaming became a giant in the industry. Although Jiaming was the leader at this time, because too many people were chasing and imitating him, the founder was drowned in the torrent of history.

In the final analysis, there are too many things for customers to choose from, and the price of Jiaming's products is not low at the beginning, and they don't need so many functions when they are actually used.Others counterfeit things that are cheap and not too bad in important functions, and the market is all inclined to them.

In the end, Wu Lianling and Lou Qiuxi agreed, and it is said that they also asked another member what he meant.

Lu Minglang remained calm about this, and neither asked Lou Qiuxi nor Shen Yanheng.

Shen Yanheng is always very busy, but in fact he is not busy with Jia Ming's affairs. Recently, his energy is devoted to Tang Jinglin's website.And Tang Jinglin has already cooperated with one of the largest search engines in China to prepare the homepage to attract traffic and combine with each other.

The last time Lu Minglang mentioned the mobile phone page to him, Tang Jinglin attached great importance to it. He felt that if he used a mobile phone instead of a computer to surf the Internet in the future, because the mobile phone is easy to carry, the market prospect is also very broad.

In the blink of an eye, it was already autumn, and during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Lu Minglang went to the big market to buy a box of mooncakes and asked them to send them to Lu Zhongsong, so he stopped going.

In the previous life, he and Lu Zhongsong almost had such a relationship, but at that time, it was only because he was busy.

just now……

Jiaming’s first batch of smartphones hit the market—the last batch of Jiaming just made light and small mobile phones to test the waters. Sure enough, smartphones ignited the heat all of a sudden. In the circle of rich people, they can surf the Internet and play some games. The mobile phone of the mini game is simply the most advanced item.

Greedy Snake, Sudoku.

They played the simplest games with gusto, and even found someone to PK, and if they lost, they would treat them.

For most people, the entry of smartphones into the market has nothing to do with them. It’s not that long ago when a mobile phone cost more than 1 yuan. Mobile phones are definitely only for the rich, and what do they say? Nor can it be considered rich.

Afterwards, Jia Ming set up locations near University A and various colleges in City B, charging phone bills and giving away mobile phones.

Students far away from other places most want to connect with their families and are the easiest to participate in such activities.And there is another reason—students far away from other places have the right to decide where the money goes. They want to take advantage of it and buy a novelty.Young people are the quickest to know the benefits of smartphones.

When the first month's share of phone charges alone exceeded the transaction volume of ordinary smartphones in the month, Wu Lianling had to admit that this activity was so powerful.

Tang Jinglin's website has already been put on the Internet. Lu Minglang cooperates with Tang Jinlin on behalf of Jiaming. The homepages of all Jiaming's mobile phones are Tang Jinglin's Go Entertainment.

There are too few websites in this area in China, and the website made by Tang Jinglin contains too many things.

When music, games, videos, jokes, etc. can be seen on this website, the mobile phone is no longer a tool for calling and pretending - it really appeals to all young people.

Lu Minglang's game with a unique style of painting has also been published on the website. In fact, this can't be regarded as a finished product, and many details can still be expanded.

This game was only made by three people. Although it took more than a year, the effect is surprisingly good, but if the time is not calculated according to the real world, it is estimated that the game can be finished in a few hours.

It costs data - many people didn't know how much data was charged at first, and didn't buy a package, but after playing for a few days, they found that the phone bill was gone, so the number of users who bought the phone package surged, and it was more expensive than all games.

For this reason, Tang Jinlin directly bought the copyright of Lu Minglang's game, not by money, but by shares.

The value of an idea can sometimes save them hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars.The combination of smart phones and websites made Jiaming's mobile phones popular, and his website became extremely popular-originally, they all decided to fight a protracted war.It will take several years to promote the website to the point where everyone knows it.I don't know how much Lu Minglang's intervention has saved them, and it has also earned them a lot.

Websites thrive because of mobile, and mobile thrive because of websites.

The mobile phone that was sent for the phone bill can't download many things, but the Internet can be accessed.

The only entertainment besides the small games that come with the mobile phone is the website that comes with the mobile phone, and the website that comes with the mobile phone is so attractive to them.People who have the ability to touch the computer can't help but play with the computer.

When Lu Minglang proposed to build an online food delivery platform, not many people objected.

Students from University A are recruited to walk through every street near University A with a small takeaway banner, enter the business information on the street, and join in for free in the early stage.

Lu Minglang didn't miss the Haoke Canteen next to him, but the Haoke Canteen seemed to think that they must deliberately wear small shoes for them, so they insisted on not joining, and they even squeezed them out openly and secretly.

The person who led the publicity team was Qi Zhengtao, and it took a lot of effort for Qi Zhengtao to keep the smile on his face from disappearing.He waved the small flag on his hand to signal everyone to continue walking.Walked out along the school road for two hours, and then came back for the remaining two hours, each student paid their due wages, and each was given a thermos.

Every weekend, they go in different directions, and in this way, almost all the shops around University A are included in the information database of their website.Students with mobile phones can finally order food, and the food delivery people that Lu Minglang has recruited so far can fully cope with the current scope of delivery.

Of course, there are also stores who choose to deliver by themselves-if they know the address of the person who ordered the meal.

In just a few months, at least one-third of the people in University A have mobile phones, and the number is still increasing. This is simply a miracle in this era.

Because the Haoke Canteen didn't add takeaways, its business has dropped by nearly half.

And Happy Canteen, because of its huge customer base, quickly took the lead in the sales ranking of the website. In the range of food delivery that the website currently radiates, the first thing you see when you want to buy something is Zhu Meizhen and the others’ happy meal. Church.

The takeaway order alone even exceeds four figures, and the business is so hot that it is unimaginable, as are other merchants who joined the takeaway. As long as there are three hundred orders per month, the takeaway alone is enough for them to earn.

In November, Lu Minglang founded Kuaikuaier Co., Ltd., and began to set up stores in major cities. Each branch radiated, gradually bringing the whole country into the scope of Kuaikuaier food delivery.

Eat, drink, play, make reservations, group purchases, food delivery, water delivery, and delivery services, each project is developed.

Starting at five o'clock and going to bed at twelve o'clock, Shen Yan will help him when he is empty, but the two of them are mostly busy together without touching the ground, and because Lu Minglang's team only includes Qi Zhengtao and the creative agency A few classmates of mine, they opened a small studio outside, and they were so tired that they fell asleep there.

Shen Yanheng feels sorry for Lu Minglang, especially when they still have so much homework at the end of the semester.

Back at Lujiatang at the end of the year, Lu Minglang had dark circles in both eyes.

Jiaming also carried out the activity of freeing mobile phones with red phone bills in major cities in various provinces, and the speed of spread was almost the same as his Kuaihuaer website.

Only Tang Jinglin’s GO Entertainment.com and his Kuaidianer.com can order food online, and at present, due to the development of mobile phone memory, the separate software Lu Minglang has proposed a design concept and even prepared a rough initial interface. marketed, but not yet.

The Haoke Canteen almost suffered a total defeat in this struggle, and the reason for the defeat was only because of the channel——When Shen Yanbin knew that Lu Minglang had found another way and even created a more valuable Kuaihuaer Co., Ltd., he was so angry that he ran in front of him for a long time After a while of cynicism, he was saying both openly and secretly that he must rely on Shen Yanheng to do it, and it was shameless to spend their Shen family's money.

Lu Minglang didn't go back with sarcasm, but went to his restaurant for a meal, and commented: "Actually, the taste of your restaurant is not as bad as I imagined."

Shen Yanbin almost vomited blood from his anger. Seeing that the number of people in the store became less and less as the weather turned colder, he gritted his teeth and joined Lu Minglang's quick delivery platform—although He will be drawn, but if he really doesn't join, his store will close down.

Walking in the cold wind, I returned to my familiar hometown along the familiar road.

Looking at all the familiar scenery, Lu Minglang felt as if he had passed away.

The trees left on Lujiatang Mountain were well taken care of. Most of the trees did not bear fruit, but a small number of them bore fruit tenaciously.

When the fruits were fruiting, the village chief Lu Diankao called Lu Minglang and asked him to come back and find someone to collect the fruits and sell them. Lu Minglang asked the village chief to pick the fruits and divide them up. If there are any leftovers, they will be distributed to the people in the village.Lu Dian passed the exam, and then called him to tell him how much he got.

After Lu Minglang heard the string of numbers, he couldn't help admiring Lu Diankao - closeness, closeness, upper and lower identities... This is a completely unoffensive distinction.However, when he heard the names of Lu Zhongbai and Zhao Chunhua's family, he was still taken aback. He thought they had moved away long ago.

Chinese New Year, come back and have a look.

In the spring of next year, this place will be demolished. When Lu Minglang stood in front of the old house, he looked at this unfamiliar yet familiar place, and there was a sound of soft footsteps rustling behind him, getting closer and closer to him. close.

Lu Minglang turned his head vigilantly, but before he saw anyone, he was suddenly hugged from behind, tightly hugging him tightly.

"?!"

Lu Minglang was startled, but he couldn't break free, and he soon discovered that this breath was so familiar, his face darkened instantly when he was familiar with it: "Shen Yanheng!"

Shen Yanheng hugged him and rubbed his cold head against his warm neck, and said, "Why are you calling me by my first name again?"

Lu Minglang broke free and said, "What are you doing! Everyone in my hometown knows me." If any old man saw this, he would probably faint from fright.

Shen Yanheng said: "They didn't come out in such a cold day." Then he looked at the old house and said, "This is your home?"

Lu Minglang gave a "hmm" and said, "My hometown."

Shen Yanheng rubbed his hands together, and said, "Then we will live here for a few days?" Seeing that the house is a bit old, it can still provide shelter from the wind and rain.

Lu Minglang glanced at him immediately, and said: "There is nothing in there except a few boxes of books. If you want to go in and sleep on the cold concrete floor, it's up to you. I want to sleep on a warm bed."

Shen Yanheng followed him with a playful smile, and said, "Then I will sleep in the same bed as you too."

Lu Minglang gave him an elbow.

He took him to the orchard, and the helpers in the orchard went to the New Year after taking antifreeze measures, so there was no one here.

Shen Yanheng saw the rows of woods walking through the woods with ease, and finally held a fallen leaf with one hand and touched the bark of a tree with the other, and said, "The quality of your fruit trees is not bad. cheat you."

Lu Minglang said: "The village chief set up the line, the quality will not be bad."

Shen Yanheng took a rough look, and said, "Have you found a market for the forest you bought in such a large area?" He pointed to this area, and said, "Look at these orange trees. There can be several truckloads of orange trees when they bear fruit, and there, those...why do you plant so many persimmon trees? If the persimmons are not disposed of in time, they will rot and stink far away."

Lu Minglang said: "Do you know all these fruits?"

Shen Yanheng said: "It's not that I don't touch the spring water with my ten fingers. In the army, I helped to tend the fruit trees and even fed the pigs."

Lu Minglang looked at him with a half-smile.

Shen Yanheng said: "You still don't believe it?"

Lu Minglang nodded.

Shen Yanheng smiled and said: "I know it even if you don't believe it, it's useless if you don't believe it." As he said that, he leaned over and kissed Lu Minglang on the face.Since Lu Minglang started to be busy, Shen Yanheng seldom found him when he stopped to rest.

This made him uneasy, and he scratched his heart and lungs because he had seen so little.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Shen Yanheng took Lu Minglang back to Shen's house for a meal. Although Shen Fengye and him still didn't speak a word, it was already a sign of reconciliation.

But Shen Yanheng did not go home after the holiday, but chased Lu Minglang to Lujiatang.

Lu Minglang walked around the fruit forest for a while and then left. He went to the next village and looked around Cui Mincai's house.

It is still a big tree, and it is still an old courtyard gate.

Shen Yanheng felt something wrong when he saw his eyes, frowned and said: "Where are your relatives living?"

Lu Minglang said: "Not relatives, but friends."

Shen Yanheng said: "Friend? What friend."

Lu Minglang said: "The friends who grew up together, me and the second child, and him." He smiled, gestured to the room, and said, "The third child is called Cui Zhenxiang, and he lived there. We used to I often come here to play, and the third child is the liveliest one among us."

Shen Yanheng said: "Then why don't you keep going in to see him, just standing at the door?" Lu Minglang doesn't seem to be cowardly, his eyes are obviously full of nostalgia and complexity - this makes Shen Yanheng feel Some are not tasteful.

Lu Minglang said: "He hasn't come back yet." Without further words, he pulled Shen Yanheng and asked him to leave with him.
