"I'll ask about it for you later."
"Okay, thank you, Director Liu."
Two hours later, the plane landed at Beijing Daxing International Airport, and an officially arranged bus took the group to the Beijing Yanshan Hotel.
Official staff collected room keys at the front desk and handed them to the six representatives.
"Here are your room keys. Two people per room. The two from Tongji University are both male, so you can each have your own room. The students from Fudan and Jiaotong Universities can each find their own rooms. Everyone, go back and get some rest. Call me if you need anything."
The representative from Fudan University, holding a room key, approached Lin Chen and whispered, "Mr. Lin, I'd like to share a room with my girlfriend. Would that be convenient?"
Lin Chen glanced at Su Xiaowan, who blushed and said, "I'm fine with anything."
"Hehe, thank you so much, Mr. Lin. I'll treat you to milk tea later."
He then handed Lin Chen two room keys from another room.
Lin Chen and Su Xiaowan arrived at their room, put down their luggage, and prepared to go to the hotel restaurant for lunch. At that moment, two representatives from Tongji University walked over.
"President Lin, let's go have dinner together... Oh, you guys..."
The person next to him quickly covered his mouth: "Mr. Lin, my friend isn't very bright and often talks nonsense. Please don't take offense."
"Haha, your friend is quite interesting. By the way, what are your names?"
"My name is Chen Cheng, and his name is Ma Surui. Our company makes beauty camera apps."
"Meitu Xiu Xiu?"
"Pretty much, but we can turn on the automatic beautification function directly during video chat."
"That sounds great. With such amazing technology, you must have a lot of people wanting to invest in you."
Ma Surui shook off Chen Cheng's hand and sighed, "It's mainly because our technology is not yet perfect. The beauty filter often disconnects during video playback, so our reputation isn't very good."
Lin Chen gasped. "My goodness! The beauty video disconnected halfway through. How am I supposed to play this? If the contrast is too great, it'll give me a heart attack. It would be a miracle if this video got any good reviews."
Chen Cheng immediately added, "However, we have recently made a major technological breakthrough. The frequency of disconnections on the PC side has been greatly reduced, but there has been no progress on the mobile side yet."
Lin Chen thought about it from a hindsight perspective. It should be that too much data was being processed at the same time, causing the mobile network bandwidth to be unable to transmit normally. In 2009, 4G networks had not yet been developed, and there were indeed many technologies that could not be achieved with the bandwidth and speed of 3G networks alone.
"Let's exchange contact information. We're both in Shanghai, and I hope we'll have opportunities to cooperate in the future."
"Okay, okay, Mr. Lin, you are the first big shot I added in this competition, hehe."
After exchanging contact information, Chen Cheng and Ma Surui left. On the way, Chen Cheng continued to lecture Ma Surui.
"Tell me about your foul mouth, is it because you're missing a front tooth and your tongue is whistling? You dare to blurt out President Lin's private affairs like that. This floor is full of people from all over the country's schools. Do you want everyone to know about President Lin's affair with his female secretary?"
Ma Surui felt a wave of relief and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "Yes, yes, thank goodness you covered my mouth. No wonder President Lin took the initiative to add our contact information just now, so that's why."
Lin Chen: ? ? ?
The buffet at the Beijing Yanshan Hotel was quite good, with a wide variety of dishes and flavors. Lin Chen and Su Xiaowan were stuffed.
"Xiao Wan, your name is Xiao Wan (Little Bowl), how come you ate three big bowls?"
"??? Lin Chen! Puns are punishable by fines! Besides, I didn't eat three big bowls, I only ate a tiny bit. Let's go for a walk to digest."
Let's go.
As I walked downstairs, I ran into two representatives from Fudan University.
"Mr. Lin, what a coincidence! I was just about to come find you. Here, I brought you some coffee from the lounge and coffee shop across the street."
"Thank you. I still don't know how to address you."
"My name is Qian Kaining, and this is my girlfriend Zhang Qian. Our company does group buying. Let's exchange contact information."
As Lin Chen took out his phone and added Qian Kaining's contact information, he said, "Amazing, amazing, group buying is a huge opportunity."
"Hehe, just messing around, are you guys planning to go out for a stroll?"
"Hmm, I ate too much for dinner, I'll go for a walk."
"Okay, then I won't bother you any longer. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
After the two left, Su Xiaowan secretly asked Lin Chen, "Lin Chen, didn't you say that even group-buying companies don't do it? Why did you tell them it's a huge opportunity?"
"These two sentences don't contradict each other. Group buying is indeed a huge trend, but it's also a real money drain. Without big capital entering the market, it simply can't survive, so even a dog wouldn't do it."
At that moment, snowflakes began to fall from the sky.
Su Xiaowan exclaimed excitedly, "Lin Chen, look, it's snowing!"
Yes, it snowed in Beijing in December 2009. As the saying goes, a timely snow promises a good harvest, and that's certainly true. In 2010, China's internet market was a vibrant and competitive landscape.
More than 6,000 group-buying websites of all sizes have sprung up. Lin Chen smiled. The ultimate weapon of his hidden Huasuan.com, group-buying price comparison, can be unleashed to dominate the market.
The snow fell heavier and heavier. As southerners, they had never seen such heavy snow before. Lin Chen and Su Xiaowan had a great time playing and built a snowman in the snow. Lin Chen even ran back to the self-service restaurant to find a carrot to use as the snowman's nose.
Finally, a crooked snowman with a carrot stuck in it was finished. The two took a photo with the snowman, and Lin Chen casually posted it on Weibo.
"I came to Beijing to participate in the National College Student Entrepreneurship Competition, and I didn't expect it to snow so heavily. As a southerner, I was so excited! [Image.jpg]"
Lin Chen's Weibo account is verified and has over 20 million followers. He often posts interesting photos and sometimes forwards advertisements from Huasuan.com.
"Holy crap, Mr. Lin, you're even participating in the college student entrepreneurship competition? Isn't that a complete game-changer?"
"Hey upstairs, have you ever seen a max-level character with god-tier gear slaughtering a newbie village? It's about to happen."
"Mr. Lin, I'm also here to participate in this entrepreneurship competition. Is it too late to withdraw now?"
"Wait, guys, something's not right. How come this girl is so beautiful?"
"It's not that little girl from last time, this time it's a pure and innocent junior!"
"Beast! Beast!"
"Hmph, I'll open Huasuan.com and tag that cute girl from last time."
While memorizing vocabulary words, An Rou glanced at Lin Chen's Weibo, almost drooling with envy. Seeing that some netizens had actually tagged her in the comments section of Huasuan.com's official Weibo account, she directly replied using the official account's own Weibo post: "This beautiful lady is our company's CFO. Our lovely lady couldn't make it due to other commitments, sob sob o(╥﹏╥)o"
