Qianhai Town, Popular Frontline Internet Cafe.
This internet cafe opened in 2006, survived the 2008 financial crisis, and weathered the decline of internet cafes when every household had a computer. It finally closed down in 2018, perhaps because it had made enough money.
The reason they were able to survive for so long was because the internet cafe owner was well-informed and had connections.
They can always find the hottest and most popular games to install and operate, keeping them one step ahead of other internet cafes.
With this small internet cafe, Yang Baiwan made his fortune over more than ten years of operation.
The internet cafes in town didn't have many rules, so the two of them simply paid for an hour of internet access, found their own computer, and turned it on to surf the internet.
The first thing I did was check my college entrance exam score, which was exactly the same as I remembered: 548 points.
This year, the minimum score for liberal arts undergraduate programs is 545, just three points above the cutoff.
With no hope of getting into a 985 or 211 university, there's no need to consider slightly more well-known schools or popular majors. However, you can try to find a less popular major at a good school.
However, Xu An doesn't need to worry about this issue now.
He entered the college application page and filled in the law major at Yenching University and the business administration major at Tsinghua University without even blinking.
The dream I couldn't fulfill in my past life has finally come true in this one—to apply to Yenching University and Tsinghua University!
As for whether I can be admitted, that's definitely not the case. Don't treat the score requirements as just for show.
It's all about having fun.
Xu Heping was happily playing games nearby, occasionally glancing at what Xu An was doing. When he saw Xu An filling out his college application, he casually asked, "How many points did you get?"
"548 points."
Which school are you planning to apply to?
"The law program at Yenching University and the business administration program at Tsinghua University."
The computer character Xu Heping was controlling suddenly stopped slashing at the monster with its greatsword, but the monster did not stop attacking and instead slashed at the character with its claw.
KO.
“Anzi, although my grades aren’t great, I know that you can’t easily apply to these two schools without a score of at least 620. Your score of 548 isn’t low, but it’s still a bit far from those schools. Why don’t you lower your expectations a little?” Xu Heping suggested cautiously, afraid of upsetting Xu An.
After all, to dare to apply to two top universities in China with a score of 548 is nothing short of insane.
Xu An clicked the confirmation button and then closed the college application webpage.
"Just kidding."
"Damn it, how did my character die?!"
Xu Heping breathed a sigh of relief and turned to continue the game, only to find that his game character had already reached GAME OVER.
Having completed his main task at the internet cafe, Xu An opened his browser to browse news content.
The top section displays recent news reports, ranging from everyday family matters to current affairs and policies.
The iOS version of the "Let's Eat" app is coming soon, version 2.0.
So "Let's Eat" is actually an app launched this year; initially, only the iOS version was released.
The food delivery industry may seem to be just emerging now, but many people have already seen the huge business opportunities it presents.
In 2013, there were more than 5,000 websites or apps related to food delivery. Tuantuan fought its way out of the competition and became a fierce beast that could compete with Chifanla.
The creation of "Let's Eat" was quite by chance. It happened when a few college students, after playing games all night, ordered food from a nearby restaurant by phone, and the restaurant owner delivered it to their dormitory.
The two chatted about this topic during dinner, and the conversation got so engaging that they started thinking about starting a business.
Without hesitation, they found a top student from the computer science department to work together, and in 2008 they created the "Eat Up" app.
Initially, it simply integrated nearby businesses to serve students on campus, but later, with investment, it began to develop rapidly.
Online contact, dedicated delivery!
Xu An suddenly froze.
yes!
How could he not have thought of that!
He could change the spot sales model to a pre-sale model, determining the number of boxed meals people would need the next day a day in advance, and then producing according to that number.
This way, there won't be a situation where eighty people want to buy boxed meals, but he has only prepared thirty.
This also avoids the situation where thirty people want to buy boxed meals, but he has prepared eighty boxed meals.
There are two suitable places for the purpose: one is the Zijing Garden construction site, and the other is the Shanghai Maritime College.
Why don't we try it out at the Bauhinia Garden construction site now?
Xu An slowly turned his head towards Xu Heping, staring intently at him.
Xu Heping, who was happily fighting monsters, felt a chill down his spine. He made several mistakes in a row, and in the end, the BOSS managed to turn the tide and kill him by a narrow margin, even though he could have easily won.
Depend on!
Xu Heping took off his headphones and threw down his mouse, intending to complain to Xu An, but found Xu An staring at him with a calculating look in his eyes.
"Hey, you just said that the demand for boxed meals at the Bauhinia Garden construction site has increased, right? Today, many workers wanted to buy boxed meals but were unable to because of the limited quantity, right?"
Xu Heping was a little unsure what Xu An wanted to say, so he nodded instinctively.
"When you set up your stall tomorrow, bring paper and a pen and ask them if they want to pre-order the boxed meals for the day after tomorrow. If they do, you register them and collect the payment, okay?"
“It doesn’t seem like a good idea. They’d be worried we’d run away with the money before they even saw the goods.” Xu Heping thought for a moment and decided the plan wasn’t very feasible, so he repeatedly refused.
