In 1996 and 1997, laptop computers began to become gradually popular. The three major manufacturers at that time, Dell, Toshiba, and IB, also launched many models of laptop computers. For business people, using laptops for work when they are on business trips is quite convenient.
Liu Qiandong's Jingdong store did not offer notebook services, but he dared to tell Yuan Fangguo that he had stock. Yuan Fangguo guessed that this guy must be looking for stock temporarily in various familiar stores.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Liu Qiandong came back panting, holding laptops from three major brands in his hands.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting."
"It's okay." Yuan Fangguo said with a smile.
"These are all new laptops launched this year, take a look..." Liu Qiandong said as he demonstrated to Yuan Fangguo.
Liu Qiandong demonstrated each one of them. After the demonstration, he quickly asked Yuan Fangguo which one he liked.
"I'm interested in all three." Yuan Fangguo said calmly.
"Ah?" Liu Qiandong was surprised. These days, it's rare for people to buy three laptops at once.
Besides being surprised, Liu Qiandong was also very excited. He quickly packed it for Yuan Fangguo.
"This is my business card. Boss, if you need anything in the future, just come to me and we will serve you wholeheartedly." Liu Qiandong did not forget to hand over his business card with both hands.
"Okay, I'll come find you if I need anything. By the way, can you write programs?"
Liu Qiandong nodded quickly. He was a little surprised. How did the customer in front of him know that he could write programs? Could it be that he was introduced by an acquaintance?
"I can write it. What kind of program do you want?" Liu Qiandong asked.
“Warehouse management procedures.”
"Warehouse management procedures? What kind of functions are needed?" Liu Qiandong asked as he picked up a small notebook and prepared to take notes.
Yuan Fangguo told Liu Qiandong about the general model of his Internet warehouse. Like Tong Mingzhu, Liu Qiandong is also an extremely smart person. After listening, he roughly understood the general framework in his mind.
“When will it be completed?”
"One month."
“I’ll give you two months. You must perfect it. It must have the performance of fool-point operation and be able to access the Internet.”
"Okay, there's no problem with all of this. What's the price?" Liu Qiandong was born in the countryside, so he vowed to make a name for himself. After coming out of the ivory tower, he became very realistic. He defined himself as a businessman.
From a business perspective, this is in line with business rules.
"You name a price."
Liu Qiandong stretched out a finger without hesitation.
"Ten thousand?" Yuan Fangguo asked.
"No, one hundred thousand." Liu Qiandong shook his head and said seriously.
This time Yuan Fangguo was surprised. He didn't expect that a program software could be sold for 100,000 yuan.
"We make a living with our brains, and knowledge is power," Liu Qiandong explained with a smile.
“Is post-maintenance included?”
"Bag."
“Lifelong tenure?”
"ten years."
"How about this? I'll give you 80,000 first, and the remaining 20,000, 2,000 per year, over ten years?"
The inflation was very small at that time, so Liu Qiandong agreed without thinking. In Yuan Fangguo's opinion, if he knew that ten thousand yuan in a few years would not be worth even five thousand yuan now, he would regret it very much.
Words are not enough, so Yuan Fangguo asked Liu Qiandong to draft an agreement and he would ask someone to come and get it later.
After leaving Zhongguancun, Yuan Fangguo wandered around BJ City again and returned to the sales office building.
There is a room on the rooftop of the sales office building that is specially used for receptions, and Yuan Fangguo lives in one of the suites.
He bought a laptop and planned to give one to Tong Mingzhu, one to Ma Tingting and one to the third child. They all needed it for work and it would be more convenient to handle things when they were on business trips.
After he told Tong Mingzhu about the warehouse management software, Tong Mingzhu became very interested in it. Although she knew nothing about computers, she was good at learning. This made her feel that the future society would definitely be a society full of technological elements. With computer management, it would definitely be of great benefit to the development of their work.
That night, Yuan Fangguo chatted with Tong Mingzhu for a long time, until the early morning.
The next day, Yuan Fangguo flew directly from North China to Chengdu.
This time he was out for almost a week. If Yi Juntao hadn't told him that the school had an event during the May Day holiday, he might have stayed in North China for another day or two.
The school's May Day activities are mainly prepared for these graduates. In more than a month, they will leave the school, and this time they are mainly to find out their graduation assignments.
Sun Kejian and Yi Juntao chose to return to their hometowns, Gao Dapeng and Yang Xuexiu chose to go to BJ, and he also hesitated for a long time and finally decided to find a job on his own.
When the news of his self-employment spread, everyone was shocked. As the proud students of the best university in Bashu Province, they could at least become state officials, which was a stable job, but he actually gave up the choice on his own initiative.
Yuan Fangguo chose to give up, and so did Liu Wenbo. He had already made arrangements with the Southern Journal magazine and would go to Guangzhou for a year or two after graduating from university before coming back.
Liu Wenbo is stubborn, so everyone thinks his decision is normal. However, Yuan Fangguo is considered an excellent talent in everyone's eyes, so his choice is really surprising.
According to his conditions, even if he could not stay in the provincial capital, there would be absolutely no problem returning to Jiangnan City, but he chose to give up.
Even squad leader Qin Yinru was puzzled by Yuan Fangguo's decision.
The only people who could truly understand his thoughts were Liu Wenbo, his roommates, and Yang Xuexiu.
After the event, Yi Juntao took the initiative to suggest going out for dinner in the evening.
Once this event is over, the next time they meet might be at the graduation ceremony.
"Are you the host?" Sun Kejian asked half-jokingly and half-seriously.
Yi Juntao nodded. "It doesn't matter who pays. After we disband in June, we don't know when we'll meet again."
"It's our usual habit tonight, split the bill," Yuan Fangguo said. "Everyone bring your girlfriends so that Dapeng's family won't be lonely."
Yang Xuexiu and Gao Dapeng are already in the passionate stage of their relationship, and their work is basically settled, so this time Yang Xuexiu did not avoid suspicion, but instead took Gao Dapeng's arm with a sweet look on her face.
Yang Xuexiu nodded and said expectantly, "Okay, bring everyone along, let's have some fun."
