My Return to Life

In the left and right rearview mirrors of the Phaeton, you can see the scene of Zhang Ruizheng comforting Chen Qinghui in a soft voice.

Wen Ye stared at the left rearview mirror without blinking, and tilted his head forward, looking a little bit cerebral palsy.

After Fang Nian's question ended, she didn't react: "Huh?"

Then Wen Ye quickly replied: "Oh, there is still a little over 1 million in the public account."

Fang Nian rolled his eyes at Wen Ye who was trying to face the front: "You still like to join in the fun?"

"I, I... just take a look." Wen Ye hesitated.

Fang Nian raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you very good at it, haven't you shown your affection to your boyfriend before?"

Wen Ye quickly replied: "I'm not, I didn't, it was a bet that time, it's all Xiaogu's fault."

Then he whispered: "No one is chasing me, I can't really take the initiative."

Fang Nian's eyes moved up and down, and he smacked his lips: "It seems that I didn't notice that Wen Mi is also a goddess in the eyes of boys."

"Huh?" Wen Ye was puzzled.

Fang Nian explained: "Everyone thinks that a goddess like you has a boyfriend, so they dare not chase you."

Wen Ye froze, looked at the rearview mirror of the car, with an expression on his face that you were lying to me: "No way!"

"I'm not prettier than that Chen Qinghui, why is her boyfriend so handsome and considerate!"

Fang Nian laughed: "If you don't believe me, go and observe, you haven't graduated yet."

"Oh, oh." Wen Ye came back to his senses, responded in a low voice, and then quietly stuck out his tongue, looking scared.

I beeped softly in my heart: "Mom, I'm promising, I didn't get scolded for talking back to the boss!"

Seeing this, Fang Nian couldn't help but glared at Wen Ye: "Wen Ye, do you think I'm a man-eating monster?"

"No, it's not." Wen Ye quickly denied, almost crying, "I, I didn't mean that, I just, just..."

No matter how lazy Fang Nian was to take care of Wen Ye, he turned his head and looked out of the window.

On the other side, Zhang Rui and Chen Qinghui quickly calmed down.

Then Zhang Rui trotted over and told Fang Nian where to go.

Fang Nian pointed at the inside of the car and joked, "Go over there."

"No problem, no problem." Zhang Rui nodded repeatedly.

I beeped softly in my heart: "Rich people's cars only have four seats."

Now there are five people, instead of letting one person go alone, it is indeed a suitable arrangement for the three of them to go together.

The place Zhang Rui mentioned is not too far away, but it is outside the park.

After Wen Ye started the car, Fang Nian's cell phone rang, looked at the number, connected and said, "Thank you, Mr. Liu, for the trouble."

Liu Qin laughed: "You and I both understand things, so why be so polite."

Then he said in an explanatory tone: "This old investment Kuang doesn't know at all."

"Old Kuang asked me to help Mr. Fang and tell you that next time you go to Beijing, or he comes to Shencheng, let's have a cup of tea together."

Fang Nian smiled and said, "No problem, I will ask for advice face to face if I have the opportunity."

"Just now, Lao Kuang complained to me that the financial crisis suffered a lot the year before last, and the company has invested blindly in the past two years." Liu Qin said jokingly.

"I said that I must ask you for advice if I have time, and I also said that Wang Xing of Meituan is also interested in investing. I didn't expect Wang Xing to take the initiative to give the opportunity to Mr. Fang."

Fang Nian said repeatedly: "Hey, Mr. Liu, how can you and Mr. Kuang praise and kill me, a low-level student?"

"..."

After a few jokes, he hung up the phone.

The main reason is that Liu Qin made fun of Qiming Venture Capital.

From Xincheng's company style, it can be seen that the return on investment will definitely be very low.

But why it was able to pass the due diligence of Qiming Venture Capital, there is obviously a "small problem", anyway, Qiming Venture Capital has to remember Fang Nian's small favor.

In Fangnian's philosophy of life, this is mutual help in cooperative interests.

Favor is mutual.

Otherwise, Fang Nian would really take such a big detour for such a small matter that can be solved through conventional means?

It is nothing more than the so-called "no fight, no acquaintance".

And for the sake of Ms. Lu Weiyu's face, it's okay to make this detour.

As the Phaeton walked out of the park, Fang Nian saw the names of many companies upstairs through the car window. This is probably the place where the technology giants in Shanghai are most concentrated.

Looking at some familiar company names, Fang Nian sighed: "There are so many things I want to do, but I have so little money, it's hard~"

…………

…………

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Nian sat in a tea restaurant in Zhangjiang.

This time I drank a literal afternoon tea, with tea and snacks.

"..."

After getting to know each other, Zhang Rui's classmate is also named Zhang Xinliang.

"Thank you Mr. Fang. Originally, Zhang Rui told me that we might try to find the police uncle to deal with it. We must be fully prepared to restore the log or something, but it turned around all of a sudden."

Zhang Xinliang showed excitement and said excitedly.

"It's the first time I know that the internship process is actually very simple. You only need to write a few chapters. In the end, the new boss sent us downstairs. That's a courtesy."

Fang Nian smiled: "You're welcome, it's easy."

"Oh, oh, yes yes yes." Zhang Xinliang was far less calm than he appeared on the surface, and he didn't know how to speak.

Zhang Rui also thanked him again, with a slightly embarrassed tone: "Thank you, I really didn't expect you to get such a big favor."

After a pause, I felt ashamed: "We are all too anxious."

Fang Nian made a gesture and said calmly, "It's really just a small thing."

"It's better than dealing with the most extreme means."

Chen Qinghui didn't say much, the matter was resolved so lightly that she was living in a dream.

Although the news has been greedy for fun every day these days, I also know that this is a large enterprise with billions of assets.

But she really didn't expect that, exactly like the plot of the movie, a phone call would solve the matter easily.

It is completely different from the plan mentioned before.

"..."

After talking about this matter for a few minutes, the mood of the person concerned finally calmed down.

Fang Nian took the initiative to bring up the topic: "What are your plans next?"

"I have to prepare for graduation exams and papers, but I haven't planned yet." Zhang Xinliang replied quickly, as if answering a teacher's question.

Zhang Rui followed suit and said, "Me too."

Fang Nian turned the teacup slowly, and said, "Have you thought about what will happen after graduation?"

"I want to try to join a big company." Zhang Xinliang replied quickly.

Zhang Rui hesitated for a while, and said, "I haven't made up my mind yet, maybe I will leave Shencheng."

Fang Nian suddenly asked deliberately: "Which of you has a better programming level?"

"We are actually on the same team, and we each have different priorities." Zhang Rui replied conservatively, "In terms of horizontal comparison, it should be comparable."

Zhang Xinliang also agrees with this point: "Yes, the levels in overlapping fields are similar, and some fields have their own strengths and weaknesses."

"So that new function was actually developed by the two of you, right?" Fang Nian glanced at Zhang Rui and asked again.

"Ok."

"Basically, it was written by the two of us. In fact, it is already in the final testing stage. There is not much difference between us and us."

"..."

Like a curious baby, Fang Nian asked a lot of obviously tendentious questions.

He also signaled for Wen Ye to ask some questions.

Basically, the field that the two are most proud of: the level of programming, has been dug out.

Wen Ye has been to Shanghai Jiaotong University many times. The Dr. Huang who calculated 4G and found out that the funds are insufficient is from Shanghai Jiaotong University, and he knows Shanghai Jiaotong University quite well.

It was almost five o'clock.

Fang Nian looked at the two young guys, and said calmly, "Haven't you two ever thought about being a perfect match and starting your own business?"

"Your school also has an entrepreneurial center."

This question made Zhang Xinliang's eyes brighten: "I thought about it, why haven't I thought about it, have you heard of Lei Zhe?"

"When I was a freshman, I read the in-depth DOS programming he wrote. At that time, I fantasized that I could finish the university courses in two years, but it was a pity that the level was barely there, but the conditions did not allow it;

Compared with geniuses, I still have a big gap.

Not to mention what I thought about at the beginning, I also wrote a program and sold it for 1 million, although there was a difference of 20 years, one million at that time may be several million now..."

At the beginning Zhang Xinliang talked excitedly, but in the end, he was more or less lonely.

Compared with Lei Xi's open life, he is just an ordinary person, which is far behind.

If Zhang Rui didn't know Fang Nian today, he would have been stuck in a small company.

Zhang Rui took over Zhang Xinliang's words: "At the beginning, I was similar, but after my junior year, I didn't think so much. I just wanted to polish my experience honestly, such as finding a job and doing it steadily."

"You guys are not bad, but you didn't go to the ACM class, or you will be the champion team this year." Chen Qinghui couldn't help but interjected.

The main competition of ACM-ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Contest) is the pros and cons of algorithms.

Algorithms, simply put, are calculation methods and steps to solve a certain problem.

It is an exaggeration to say that it is the foundation of program design and dominates the execution process of the program.

Fang Nian understood this concept, which was why he sat here chatting with Zhang Rui and the others.

Fang Nian put down the hot teacup he was playing with, and said helplessly, "I'm a little ashamed by what you said, that's why I talked to Mr. Lei and invested in his newly established company."

He said with a little emotion: "I didn't expect that he was still an idol. At that time, he really should have asked for Mr. Zhang Lei's signature."

Zhang Xinliang's eyes widened: "You...what did you say? You invested in the company newly established by Lei Xi?"

"In my impression, Lei is always a kind person. After talking about the normal investment, he even gave me 5% of the permanent shares." Fang Nian stated calmly with a little reminiscence in his expression.

Zhang Rui opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Chen Qinghui blinked, not knowing what to say.

Zhang Xinliang's Adam's apple rolled down.

Then he suddenly said: "Then what, can you... no, can I take a photo with you?"

Fang Nian: "?"

He smiled mysteriously and said, "I believe there will be opportunities in the future."

Before a few people opened their mouths, Fang Nian tried to persuade: "You guys are pretty good. You have experience in independent development projects during college. Why don't you start your own business? I have an angel investment company under my name, which specializes in investing in the dreams of young people."

Zhang Xinliang, who was the quickest to answer, was stunned.

Zhang Rui also spoke after a while: "I'm not joking."

Facing the three pairs of eyes with various expressions, Fang Nian said with a smile.

"I can invest a sum of money for you, such as half a million."

After the words fell, several people were silent.

Finally, Zhang Rui sighed: "But apart from our basic programming skills, we don't know what to do."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes." Zhang Xinliang quickly echoed.

Fang Nian pursed his lips and said casually, "Perhaps you have heard of cloud computing."

"I've heard that it has been the hottest technology in the past two years!" Zhang Xinliang nodded repeatedly.

Zhang Rui also said: "Google proposed this concept. Currently, Amazon's AWS is developing better."

"In China, I've heard that Ali started to do cloud computing last year, but it hasn't made it public yet."

Fang Nian pondered for a while, and followed the temptation: "I have a simple understanding of cloud computing;

Cloud computing has three service models, IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service), PaaS (Platform as a Service), and SaaS (Software as a Service);

Using AWS as an example, Amazon is an online shopping company. The online shopping business is seasonal, and a large number of server resources are idle during idle time. Therefore, they want to engage in virtualization, cloud computing, open IaaS to the outside world, and use idle resources to create value to recover losses;

Ali is also an online shopping company. I believe the idea should be the same, and they develop services gradually from top to bottom. "

After a pause, Fang Nian looked at Zhang Rui and Zhang Xinliang and said.

"If you have no ideas, why not find a way to develop a cloud OS, including simple databases, simple storage, etc., provide services through web pages, and gradually develop services from SaaS."

Zhang Rui frowned: "You mean to imitate the main functional modules currently provided by AWS?"

Seeing Fang Nian nodding, Zhang Rui mused, "It's hard."

"If you only do the basics, there is no difficulty. What you want to say is that it is difficult to do well." Fang Nian laughed.

"It's nothing more than user experience, ease of use, compatibility, etc. The reason why AWS's current development is better than Google Cloud, which proposed the concept, is not reflected in these aspects?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xinliang couldn't help laughing out loud: "Mr. Fang, have you heard industry jokes?

Google Cloud is really inexperienced, especially the support for programming languages ​​is very narrow, as is the database, and users are not given the opportunity to choose.

AWS is not bad, I heard that customers can do whatever they need. "

Fang Nian smiled slightly, showing admiration: "Yun, it's just for the incalculable value."

If Alibaba Cloud knew that it had snatched this sentence away in Fangnian in 2010, it might cry.

Although Zhang Rui and Zhang Xinliang were moved, they still had many problems as senior graduates who were crushed and rounded by a small company just now.

"It's hard to develop this, it's not a matter of a day or two."

"Although the investment in the development period is not large, as long as it enters the actual testing stage, the server hardware resources required will be more, and it will cost money."

"It is very difficult to promote it well, and there is no infrastructure."

"I haven't heard of any company that directly develops cloud computing in one step. It's all because of the driving force."

"So even if it's done well, we don't have customers."

"..."

Regarding these questions, Fang Nian was very pleased, because the two of them at least took on the role of thinking.

Fang Nian didn't say anything like 'I'll take care of it, what do you need to do' about this mess of problems.

Instead, he explained calmly: "I am a fun-loving shareholder. You should know how terrifying the server resources game companies need, and how high the occasional possible idle rate is, so..."

As he spoke, Fang Nian looked at Zhang Rui and Zhang Xinliang with a smile on his face.

"To put it bluntly, you are patching for Tanwanwan. If the software can be done well, I think the infrastructure is the least thing to worry about."

Before Zhang Rui and Zhang Xinliang could speak, Fang Nian added seriously.

"Of course, asking you to start an independent business will definitely not make you a vassal of Fun Fun, I hope you can grow to the point where you can be on an equal footing with Fun Fun;

For example, use the innate partner who is greedy and fun to take the first step, and then go to the world. "

Faced with the temptation of giving money, ideas, and resources to customers, the two young men who hadn't graduated yet took the initiative to stuff the moldy dreams under their pillows back into their heads, and said earnestly and confidently.

"Let's do it!"

So, Fang Nian said calmly, "Wen Mi will help you with the rest, including how to register a company, how to establish it, and how to start the first step."

"..."

Next came the name of the company.

Chen Qinghui, who had been unable to get into the conversation, suddenly said with a smile: "I thought of a name, Bi Fang, the omen of the fire in myths and legends."

then.

The two young people who left the first internship company in their lives in a little embarrassment, were a little bit at a loss for the future.

In a small tea restaurant, I decided to follow Fang Nian's idea to establish a software company focusing on cloud computing.

And set the company name in a few words: Bi Fang.

This is Fangnian's first real angel investment.

It was after Fang Nian saw the word "cloud computing" in the Phaeton software park after hearing about Zhang Rui's awesome algorithm talent;

Thinking of the huge server farm operating expenses for fun, thinking of the short story in my mind about Bezos and AWS cloud developer Pinkham, thinking of Goose Factory and WeChat developers, I decided to let it go.

Fang Nian has no way of knowing whether the future will be as good as he said, he just needs to speak briefly, and leave the rest to God's will.

After all, when Fang Nian decided to invest in Zhang Rui, he was still not sure that he must do cloud computing.
