Jiang Yizhou browsed through the regulations and notices on the bulletin board, as well as the operating guidelines, and felt that the requirements seemed quite strict.
At this moment, most of the people at Huido were professionals; they were not here to joke around. Jiang Yizhou clearly was not accustomed to this serious atmosphere.
After calming down a bit, Jiang Yizhou replied to many people's messages one by one. Then he looked at a message from a prominent figure and wondered if he should just ask for a job or something. After thinking it over carefully, he decided against it and instead opted to post something publicly!
"Dear Administrator, I do not believe I am spamming. Although my comments have become bolder, I firmly believe that what I said will at least partially come true."
After writing a paragraph of meaningless words and saving it, he sent out a meeting request. Yes, it was a job inquiry; this should be one of the earliest online job inquiries in the world, oh no, in China!
Sun Yuliang glanced up and shot Jiang Yizhou a look. What was he grinning about? Is the computer really that entertaining? The next image was lagging terribly.
"Hey, pay attention!"
Jiang Yizhou suddenly looked up and scanned his surroundings, finally locking his gaze on the boss across from him. "It's fine, it's fine! I promise to be quieter!"
Faced with Jiang Yizhou's smiling face, the boss didn't know what to say. He felt a bit guilty towards him but decided not to worry too much about it!
With all modifications saved, he dialed in to upload and download everything. It was all set; now it was just a matter of whether anyone would be willing to be the first to take the plunge. Surely someone would give it a try, even if he was just a newcomer who had posted for the second time…
Jiang Yizhou lowered his head and grabbed his hair; he really didn't have much confidence!
How did those people manage to make hundreds of thousands or even millions in just a few minutes? Alibaba wasn't the first to do e-commerce, Teng Xun wasn't the first to do Instant Messaging, and Baidu wasn't the first search engine.
If he truly believed that others could succeed while he could defeat historical figures based on his knowledge as a time traveler, replacing their success was simply delusional.
Even if he managed to snag QQ for a million, he'd still have to face competitors like NetEase PaoPao, SN, and others that would make any time traveler's brain boil.
So, the first step was to get close to those future big players and then have capital to let them support him. If he couldn't reach that level, then at least he could cling to their coattails.
"Ding ding... class is starting! Get ready!" Upon hearing the boss's knock on the door, Jiang Yizhou quickly closed his computer and walked out.
...
"Why are you only coming down now? I've been waiting for so long!" Ding Zhengnan said with one foot on the ground and the other on the pedal, sounding somewhat aggrieved but still radiating youthful energy.
Jiang Yizhou patted his forehead, laughing casually, "There's a student who's particularly slow. I taught her for a long time before she finally got it. You see, it's that girl who just went out."
Ding Zhengnan rolled his eyes, "Hmph, I can't believe I waited for you so early. If it weren't for your invitation..."
Jiang Yizhou brushed it off and followed closely behind the girl who was riding quickly. Oh, what should he do? She was clearly three or four years older than him, yet she seemed much younger. Could it be that her mental age made her appear youthful?
That was the only explanation he could come up with; he was viewing people from the perspective of someone in their thirties.
As for the invitation, he sighed. Although he wasn't unwilling, he had been suddenly called by her saying, "I don't really want to go out either. You should be free after work this afternoon, right? Do you... have any plans?" This led to them going to watch a movie together.
It really made his heart race!
Jiang Yizhou kept close behind and walked alongside the girl to an old state-run cinema. But then again, most cinemas in this era were probably like this!
"What do you think we should watch?" Ding Zhengnan scanned the movie posters and asked for Jiang Yizhou's opinion.
Jiang Yizhou had no idea what was good to watch. The distant past only had a few revolutionary films that occasionally appeared on CCTV news channels; he didn't know much else.
Hmm? A female corpse discovered in the wild?
This movie called "Evil" seemed pretty good; it was a crime film with not too many off-putting elements. It shouldn't be so artsy that they wouldn't understand it! This one would do.
Jiang Yizhou pointed at the poster, "Let's watch that one; I find it quite interesting!"
He didn't expect Ding Zhengnan to agree immediately. She seemed eager and interested as well, not just yielding to his suggestion.
They bought two adjacent tickets and waited for the movie to start. The two walked into the cinema side by side, and as the projector behind them cast its light, the familiar dragon logo appeared, signaling the start of the film...
The quality of the movie was questionable; the plot was somewhat ridiculous, especially for a man and woman watching a film together.
The movie told the story of a big company CEO Luo Jianqun, who had an affair with an innocent rural girl Qin Yanmei. As Luo Jianqun realized that Qin Yanmei's feelings were becoming more troublesome and wanted to end the relationship, Qin Yanmei threatened him for forty thousand yuan because she was pregnant.
Later, Luo Jianqun discovered that Qin Yanmei was lying to him and became increasingly angry. Desperate, Qin Yanmei schemed to destroy Luo Jianqun's carefully maintained family. In the end, unable to endure any longer, Luo Jianqun killed Qin Yanmei by the seaside, which was how the female corpse at the beginning came about.
But that wasn't even the most important part; what mattered was that Ding Zhengnan, sitting next to him, had expressions that changed constantly with the development of the plot. When she saw three people get killed and the male lead arrested, she couldn't help but shout, "Good! That's what you deserve for not cherishing your family and having an affair..."
The level of immersion was not just ordinary; it left Jiang Yizhou feeling somewhat terrified. In this era, it was impossible to be free from some outdated thoughts, and this really shocked him!
It felt similar to the sensation he experienced in his previous life after watching something at school that left him startled.
As the film came to an end, while others were surprised upon catching a glimpse, the two of them walked out of the screening room—one still savoring the experience, while the other was lost in thought.
"What a scumbag! He has a wife and kids, a complete family, yet he still seeks some thrill and engages in an affair. He deserves it. But Qin Yanmei, while I feel a bit sorry for her, she also brought this upon herself!" Ding Zhengnan said as he tugged at Jiang Yizhou's arm. "Hey, what do you think? What should be done about such a scumbag?"
At this moment, he had to be cautious; he couldn't guarantee anything if he set some significant flag.
"I think... men can make mistakes that are forgivable. The important thing is not to go to extremes. If they recognized the importance of family earlier, they wouldn't have ended up like this... um, probably!"
Suddenly feeling a sharp pain in his waist, Jiang Yizhou gritted his teeth and controlled his facial muscles, maintaining a calm demeanor as he left the cinema with the girl whose expression was overly bright.
"What an idiot! This kind of person can't even say sweet words. How did he manage to find a girlfriend?"
Jiang Yizhou vaguely heard this remark and could only suppress his impulse even more forcefully, resisting the urge to turn around and punch the person who said it. This is called honesty!!!
