Chapter 1264 Don’t Be Ignorant
Pan Xiaoying's support for Li Juan was greater than Li Ye had imagined. After Li Juan submitted a written proposal the next day, the project was approved on the third day. Within a week, an inspection team was formed to go abroad for inspection. By March, the inspection was completed and they returned to China to start trial operation.

This efficiency and speed once gave Li Ye and Li Ying the illusion that Pan Xiaoying also realized the broad prospects of the Internet, so she was so concerned about it?

But Wen Leyu's words woke the dreamer up.

"My sister-in-law is in charge of mobile communications now. Setting up a BBS requires telephone lines. If she doesn't lend a hand now, it will belong to someone else in the future. It's better to take over the territory now so as not to eat from other people's bowls in the future.
Our sister-in-law is very ambitious! The more things she holds, the greater the chances of advancement in the future. She will never be satisfied."

"."

Li Ye finally understood the profound meaning of the saying "your vision depends on your position". People who sit in Pan Xiaoying's position may not need to consider whether this project will have a future, but must consider whether it will be used by their opponents.
Anything that could potentially help others would either be seized by oneself first, or destroyed at the expense of others for one's own benefit.

After hearing what Wen Leyu said, Pan Xiaoying still felt that the world of mobile communications was too small and she could not display her abilities.

Yes, now mobile communications is just a "small unit" under the postal and telecommunications system, but who could have imagined that it would develop into such a terrifying behemoth in the future?
March 15th, Friday, Branch 1.

Li Juan, along with a group of technical staff, started helping Li Ye set up the BBS website early in the morning, but it was not yet completed by noon.

It is only early spring now, but almost all of these young people are sweating, and their anxiety and annoyance are obvious.

Li Ye smiled and comforted them: "Don't worry, everyone. The food in our cafeteria is good. Let's eat first and take a rest. It won't be too late to continue working in the afternoon."

But Li Ye's consolation was of no use, as it made several technicians even more embarrassed.

"No, no, no, we are almost there, just a little bit more."

"You are the first customer of our group. We would be embarrassed to eat if we don't finish the work."

"."

Li Juan also explained a little embarrassedly: "Brother, we have just started the trial operation of this project. Some situations have not been encountered before, so it has been delayed for some time."

The principle of a BBS seems very simple. A computer, a modem and a telephone line constitute all the hardware equipment. At most, you can use a special software on the computer to dial into the platform and send and receive information.

But in this era where almost no one can understand the Internet, there is no precedent to learn from if any small detail goes wrong, and the technicians don’t know where the mistake is, so it is of course difficult to solve it.

Li Ye understood this difficulty, so he said generously: "Why should I be embarrassed? New technologies will naturally bring new problems. In the future, as users' demands increase, you will face a variety of situations one after another. Continuous improvement is a problem you must face."

Li Ye was actually sharing his experience with Li Juan. This young girl was in charge of such a large project for the first time. The pressure in her heart was greater than those technical personnel. She needed correct guidance and encouragement.

She also knew that it was normal to have problems, but she came here with full confidence, but ended up failing. She always felt that she had embarrassed her brother.

You have to know that in order to support her work, Li Ye was the first person to try it out, and he was so wealthy that he installed six lines. The cost of computers, account opening fees, and a series of other expenses totaled tens of thousands of yuan.

This was a huge deal, because at that time BBS sites all had a single line, so just like making a phone call, when one user connected to the site through dial-up software, other users who wanted to connect could only wait in front of their computers.

Therefore, only by increasing the number of lines and improving the user experience can more netizens be attracted to their own platforms. In 94, Xiao Ma Ge invested four telephone lines to build a four-line platform.

Li Ye's six-line platform was definitely a "luxury configuration" in that era, and it attracted many college students from the first branch factory to come and watch, so if it was messed up today, Li Juan would be ashamed to death.

"Okay, that's enough."

Just when Li Juan was feeling extremely ashamed, several technicians suddenly cheered. Li Juan immediately became alert: "Is it really done? Quickly notify Liu Xian and the others and ask them to send a verification message."

"Okay, Team Leader Li, I'll send the message right away."

The technician excitedly tapped on the keyboard, connected to the verification website within China Mobile, and left a message on the other party's message board saying "This is the first branch of the Light Automobile Company" and so on.

After receiving the message, the staff on duty on the other side also connected according to the address and typed a blessing message "Congratulations on connecting to the world."

“Oh~oh~~”

A group of young people cheered happily, and the staff of the factory who had been watching all morning also gave sincere applause.

Li Ye immediately instructed: "Take a screenshot of this page for me. It will become a historical witness in the future."

The technicians quickly took screenshots according to Li Ye's instructions, and Huang Mengjia from the first branch also picked up the camera and captured many moments of the scene.

There are many college students in the first branch, so they accept tasks very quickly and rush to try it out.

"Let me try. Let me try."

"Don't grab any"

"It's amazing."

Although BBS-based dial-up networks have been around overseas for seven or eight years, they are still absolutely new in mainland China. The computers these college students have come into contact with before are considered to be local "stand-alone" computers. They never thought that they could communicate with people far away through text messages through computers.
This is the beginning of a new world, but most people are unaware of it.

After Li Juan confirmed that the platform was successfully built, she quickly asked people to pack up: "Brother, we are not eating here anymore, we have to rush to the next one!"

"What's the rush? No matter how busy you are at work, you have to eat first!"

"I'm not going to eat anymore. I have an appointment with someone this afternoon. I finally got them to agree to build the website. I'm afraid they will be unhappy if I go too late."

Historically, the development of BBS platforms in the mainland was very slow, and it took several years to develop dozens of platforms. However, in this time and space, because Li Juan used the "tiger skin" of mobile communications to promote it, the speed was of course much faster.
However, this kind of promotion is just like subscribing newspapers for a company, which may make people uncomfortable. Therefore, the girl Li Juan is not used to it yet and always feels that it is being forced.

Li Ye stopped the busy Li Juan and said without question: "Listen to me, don't be anxious, and don't think you are asking for help. You are not a technician now, you are a project leader, you must be firm when talking to others."

"."

Mobile communications decades later are very powerful, with all kinds of magical operations that can make users feel extremely happy. Even if mobile communications in the 1990s were not so good, it was still a monopoly enterprise with all kinds of resources. How could it be humble?

You have to ask someone you know for help when buying a mobile phone, let alone if you want three consecutive numbers.

Li Juan was just a simple child, so she couldn't adapt.

Besides, Li Ye doesn’t think that building a website for others is “forced”. Think about the sites like “Tianya” that developed in later generations. Didn’t they all evolve from the first batch of BBS sites?

When a huge fortune is delivered to your doorstep, you must know its value.
