Who wants to take the civil service exam after being reborn?

Chapter 623 The one picking peaches has arrived.

This birthday was ultimately perfectly covered up thanks to the scoundrel's tireless efforts.

After leaving Zhujiang Imperial View around midnight, Chen first took Mu Jiawen back to South China University of Technology, then took Cong Ni and Yuan Yuan back to Sun Yat-sen University, and then returned to his office in the Science Valley. It was almost midnight by then.

Chen Zhe actually posted a QQ message and a reply on his Moments, along with two photos of himself wearing a Longines Master Collection watch, and the following caption:

Thank you for your birthday gift. May time stand still in our friendship.

After posting, Director Chen cleverly set "QQ Moments" to disable comments from anyone, lest some fool let something slip.

As for the "Reply to Friends Circle," the comment function is not yet available.

Currently, there are only over 120 million registered users and around 80 daily active users, which is even less than that of "Mole's World". Some features don't need to be opened too early.

Enjoy your meal!
The next morning, both Cosplay Sister and Sweet Sister saw these moments.

The two women were naturally very happy, both believing that the watch in the photo was a gift from them.

Actually, one photo is of "coss sister's Longines", and the other photo is of "sweet sister's Longines".

To be fair, that scoundrel of a man went to great lengths to film one watch, then switched to another for the next.

They truly embody a rigorous and meticulous work style by being undeterred by tedious tasks, taking initiative, and ensuring thorough implementation. They resolutely prevent any instances of prioritizing one thing over another, setting a behavioral benchmark for all scumbags.

Furthermore, because of this dangerous experience on her birthday, when the cosplay girl came to Zhongda University again a few days later, the scumbag was able to deal with her very calmly.

She was already very well prepared, but the scumbag told the Sichuan girl that she needed to let him know a day or two in advance because he wasn't at school sometimes.

With a day or two of preparation, all the arrangements were able to be implemented. So, on the day Cosplay Sister came to Sun Yat-sen University, Sweet Sister was in Shanghai, and Huang Cancan came to interview her.

Even Yu-hsien was mistaken by her classmates as a TV station employee.

Although some of his former classmates, such as Kang Liangsong, recognized her as another school beauty from high school.

This former class monitor of the experimental class is quite strange. Are Chen Zhe and Yu Xuan so familiar with each other?
However, Kang Liangsong and Chen Zhe didn't have much of a relationship, so he couldn't ask directly. But he did have Song Shiwei as a friend on QQ, so Kang Liangsong opened the QQ chat window.

He had already typed out the sentence "Yu Xian came to the school to find Chen Zhe," but after hesitating for a long time, he deleted it again.

What if Chen finds out in the end?
Kang Liangsong's future aspiration is to study abroad, a process that will require the school's assistance. Chen Zhe's relationship with the school leaders is common knowledge; why let a youthful resentment affect his entire life?

Although Song Shiwei is beautiful, she already has a boyfriend, and they have been dating for almost two years.

Xiao Kang always believed that Chen Zhe and Song Shiwei had been in a relationship since high school.

"So, it's time for me to let go..."

That evening, Kang Liangsong sat on the balcony under the moonlight and smoked a Furongwang cigarette by himself.

As he watched the cigarette butt slowly fade, he finally gave up the idea of ​​"telling a report."

“No man is good for a thousand days, and no flower is red for a hundred days.”

Xiao Kang comforted himself, saying that although Chen Zhe is very powerful now, who can guarantee that things will always be so smooth for him?
Having returned from studying abroad, I may not necessarily be worse than him.

Fortunately, Kang Liangsong didn't complain. Chen had already reported it to Sweetie in Shanghai, and a TV station was coming to interview them today.

Adding to the "smokescreen" of those previous scandalous reports, if Kang Liangsong were to stumble upon it, Sweet Sister might even think that he was deliberately trying to sow discord.

……

Soon, November arrived.

The weather in Guangzhou is still somewhat hot and dry, but there is a slight coolness in the mornings and evenings, which feels just right on the skin. It can be said to be the most comfortable half month in the city.

For a scoundrel like him, his feelings, though messy and difficult to conceal, somehow managed to stay intact.

Work went very smoothly, especially the progress on replying to messages was exceptionally rapid. The absence of Zheng Weizhong, this "roadblock," also signifies that China Mobile has completely abandoned Fetion.

The domestic instant messaging software market has been completely captured by Reply.

However, its rapid development has inevitably attracted attention and discussion, and the major internet companies have also taken notice of its existence.

Chen Zhe clearly sensed that everyone had suddenly become interested in replying to the letter.

Several well-known internet figures used this channel to learn about the technical team that responded and the progress of the research and development.

"It's not a good thing."

Chen knew perfectly well what was going on.

This is similar to a "public announcement before promotion within the system." During this period, the person in question doesn't want excessive attention because it's easy to be reported. However, sometimes what you fear most comes to pass, and Chen soon received a message.

Tencent is currently organizing engineers to analyze the reply.

How did Chen know that?

Going back to the wholly-owned "China Computer Software Research Institute", it already enjoys the talent pool of Sun Yat-sen University and South China University of Technology. In addition, with the two projects "Reply" and "Android", it has recruited many top engineering talents from 985 universities in China (almost all of them are highly qualified).

Even PhD students from MIT have been attracted here.

This resulted in the engineers within Tencent and those working on the retrospective project being alumni, so their actions quickly reached Chen's ears.

"The penguins' style is still very similar to before."

Chen rubbed his temples, thinking to himself.

In their past lives, both the QQ and Alibaba groups were quite domineering. Once a software, project, or app that interested them appeared on the market, their first reaction was to activate their Sharingan and copy it.

Once the copy was completed, due to their large user base, the "knock-off products" quickly squeezed the "original products" out of the market.

As for the original creators, they can't be brought down by lawsuits, and they can't even cry out for help. They can only watch helplessly as their hard work is crushed into dust by market giants.

That's why it eventually earned nicknames like "Unrivaled in Longgang, Unrivaled in Haidian, Evergreen in Yuhang".

Later, due to the overwhelming public opinion, these large companies adopted a more moderate approach.

If they've got their eye on your stuff, they'll talk about buying it first. They'll offer a good price, and most small entrepreneurs can't resist that kind of temptation.

However, this was only in 2008, and the penguins were not that strong yet, nor were their key backtesting capabilities that weak.

In terms of the relationships behind the scenes, there is the "Zhongda Gang" and Tencent has the "Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce". The Zhongda Gang and the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce also have close ties, and some belong to both the Zhongda Gang and the Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce, so they cannot be called enemies at all.

Moreover, Little Ma's alma mater, Shenzhen University, is completely incomparable to Chen Zhe's.

At that time, Shenzhen University was still a mediocre institution, and it was not until 2006 that it was approved as a doctoral degree-granting institution. By then, Sun Yat-sen University had already trained batch after batch of doctoral students.

Shenzhen University only started to become really good after 2015, and of course, it also received a lot of support from Pony Ma.

However, at this point in time, in 2008, Tencent had too many things to consider when it wanted to copy the product that had been brought back.

If the future benefits cannot outweigh the costs of offending others and the investment in research and development, then it's better not to do it at all.

I've only heard that there's a senior executive named Zhang who firmly believes that instant messaging software like Reply has an infinitely broad future market. He even came up with many reasons and wrote a PPT to prove his point. He also has some supporters within Tencent Group.

However, the board of directors is still observing and discussing the matter.

Chen was very vigilant. Replies were very important in the retrospective framework. Of course, he could understand that it was normal for good things to attract covetousness. Tencent was not the first, nor would it be the last.

In mid-November, Chen received the first-generation Youmi mobile phone sample from Foxconn and was working intensively to collect feedback when he suddenly received a call from an unknown number.

This call came from overseas; it's not a number format commonly used in China.

Moreover, the call was made using Chen's personal cell phone.

Chen has more than one mobile phone and more than one telephone, but the mobile phone used for external communication is usually kept by his secretary.

The SIM card he used in the beginning, many of his new friends don't even know the number.

"Hello. Who is this?"

Before the call connected, Chen was still guessing the other party's identity.

After the call connected, a woman's voice came from the other end: "Is this Chen?"

He sounds quite young, probably no more than thirty.

Chen frowned slightly.

Since reconciling with Lao Zheng, I've rarely heard anyone address me by my full name.

Even some high-ranking leaders, based on Chinese social etiquette, will greet him with a smile as "General Manager Chen".

This is not about respecting Chen Zhuo, but rather about everyone tacitly respecting social etiquette and the long-standing Chinese people's way of interacting.

Regardless of who this woman is.

She doesn't understand the rules.
