Chapter 740 Inquiry
Since last year, Lu Ji has opened several small Internet cafes around Beicai, and each one has only ten or twenty computers. In 1997, computers were still a luxury item compared to individuals. A computer costs 6 or 7 yuan for ordinary people is already very high-end. Most computers used in computer rooms are still in the 486 era, and it is good to use 586.
Three or four Internet cafes around Beicai have purchased ten and twenty machines. Even so, the investment will not be less than tens of thousands. If anyone who doesn’t understand this industry, who dares to invest so much money to open an Internet cafe, whether it can make money is a problem. The first person who dares to take the lead is the best.
Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran walked around these small Internet cafes but couldn't find the "alternative space" that Luo Li mentioned.
It happened that the two found a student union cadre in a small Internet cafe named Zhang Qiang.
Gu Xuan asked him if he knew about the space of the different dimensions. Zhang Qiang quickly said, "Teacher Gu, Senior Sister Ji, you need to find the space of the different dimensions. I'll take you there!"
After leaving the Internet cafe, Ji Yanran asked curiously: "How many machines does that Internet cafe have? Why aren't you surfing the Internet there?"
Zhang Qiang said: "I'm late and I'm receiving freshmen in the morning. I've finished working here. When I go, there is no more camera space in the different space. Otherwise, who can go to the small Internet cafe here?"
Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran looked at each other, and no one said anything. Zhang Qiang said to himself: "Can there be five hundred machines in the alien space, all of which are Pentium 2, and the fastest computer on the market. All the students from the surrounding universities are surfing the Internet. The boss is really courageous. That is Pentium 2, all of which are machines, really rich!"
Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran were stunned when they heard this, five hundred machines?
Gu Xuan said: "You say it again, how many machines do you have?"
Zhang Qiang said: "Five hundred units!"
Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran took a breath. What does it mean to have five hundred machines?
Gu Xuan is a university teacher. Ji Yanran likes to fiddle with computers, so of course she understands what the concept of five hundred machines is.
The Pentium 2 launched by Intel was officially launched in April. Once it was launched, it caused a sensation around the world, creating a new era of CPU development, and its processing speed has increased by more than twice.
Such a high-end computer, let alone Internet cafes, are not equipped in ordinary university computer rooms, and the alien space actually uses such a high-end computer. What is this concept?
Seeing that Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran seemed to be unbelievable, Zhang Qiang said, "Teacher Gu, really, I didn't lie to you. That Internet cafe is really five hundred machines, all of which are Pentium 2nd generation processors, and they are extremely awesome."
Zhang Qiang introduced while walking, with excitement in his tone. Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran fell into silence at this time. Is the alien space mentioned by Zhang Qiang the alien space mentioned by Luo Li?
The space of the different dimension is about 600 meters away from Beicai, and it contracts the first, second, third and fourth floors of a building. The four big characters of the different dimension give people a strange and bizarre feeling. Originally, these four words represent the fourth dimension, and giving Internet cafes such a name gives people an alternative feeling.
At the main entrance, there were endless students, including those who got off the plane and those who got on board. There were many students waiting with the bar on the first floor.
Ji Yanran asked Zhang Qiang: "What are they doing with the number plate?"
Zhang Qiang replied: "There are not enough machines. These people are waiting for the empty machine. But you have to come first and then arrive. Then go to the bar to get the number plate. The ones in front are in the middle. If the machine is vacant, they will get on first. These people are waiting to get off the machine."
Ji Yanran asked again: "How much does it cost to board the plane here for an hour?"
Zhang Qiang replied: "3 yuan per hour is one yuan more expensive than the school's, but the school computer room is full of elderly computers. You have to wait for five minutes to drive a computer. Who can go? Open a web page and wait for one minute. Who can bear it? I would rather spend one more yuan here than go to the school computer room!"
Ji Yanran silently calculated in her heart how much money could be made in five hundred machines in a day. The result of the calculation made Ji Yanran feel a little scary!
Zhang Qiang said: "If you want to get on the plane, you can only wait!"
Gu Xuan said: "Let's go upstairs and take a look!"
Under Zhang Qiang's leadership, Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran walked around the entire Internet cafe and saw Liang Yiheng on the fourth floor. He was reinstalling the system for a machine. There was something wrong with the system of this machine, and he was doing technical processing.
Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran looked at each other, and no one said anything. They walked behind Liang Yiheng and watched him install the system, debug it, and enter the management password. They were extremely skillful in a series of operations.
After Liang Yiheng finished all this, he said to the students who were studying: "I saw that I had done something like this when I just started to operate. I will deal with it in the future. The current operating system still has some flaws, many loopholes and patches, and there are machine to practice. I have tried my best to master the technology these days. I can't be here every day, do you remember?"
The student responded repeatedly, straightened up, turned around and saw Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran standing behind him. Liang Yiheng was startled. He said awkwardly: "Teacher Gu, Senior Sister Ji, when did you come?"
Gu Xuan smiled: "The technology is quite comprehensive, let's go over there and talk!"
Liang Yiheng didn't understand what was going on, so he said to Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran: "Then go to the office to talk!"
"Your office?" Ji Yanran asked with a smile. At this time, she and Gu Xuan had already confirmed that the alien space Luo Li mentioned was this alien space, which is correct.
However, Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran, who run such a big Internet cafe, were full of questions and curiosity. They wanted to know what was going on now.
Liang Yiheng took the two to the office, and he handed them a bottle of Xiaoqingshan mine water, and said embarrassedly: "Teacher Gu, Senior Sister Ji, why are you here? Are you here to surf the Internet?"
Gu Xuan said: "This Internet cafe is really Luo Li, Gundam, Huo Haifeng and you opened it?"
Liang Yiheng blushed and said, "Teacher Gu, I don't have money? Actually, that's the case." Liang Yiheng said that Luo Li returned to his dormitory to open an Internet cafe last semester.
As for why only the four of them participated, Xiao Liangzi also said it again, this child is more honest.
Furthermore, his brother and Gu Xuan are classmates, so he dare not lie in front of Gu Xuan.
After listening to Liang Yiheng's words, Gu Xuan and Ji Yanran looked at each other and saw shock from each other's eyes.
This alien space is said to be a joint venture between several people, but in fact, Luo Li paid for the money alone. Such a large Internet cafe, it is impossible to invest in all three or two million yuan.
Luo Li took out so much money alone, where did he get so much money? What does his family do?
This series of questions made Ji Yanran and Gu Xuan a little dizzy. Luo Li was deeper than they thought. What kind of person was this guy?
