Chapter 9 Tang Wan, Tang Wan

Xia An’s air conditioner is in the living room. It’s a vertical one and very new.

He remembered buying it last summer.

They didn't want to pretend, but Xia An's parents still spent thousands of dollars to let their son study comfortably at home.

When Xia An is not at home, the old couple never turns on the power because it wastes electricity.

Xia An told Tang Wan that if it was cold, she could turn off the air conditioner and just use the fan herself, and then she lay down on the sofa.

Tang Wan leaned forward and looked outside the house. Looking at Xia An, she felt grateful again.

This is his home. He can sleep in the big house or in his own bedroom. Sleeping on the sofa is just a sign of respect for her.

Tang Wan was very curious.

She could clearly feel from Xia An the calmness and profound maturity that ordinary high school students did not possess.

That’s right, maturity.

She vividly remembered the way boys of her age looked at her when she was in school and working as a teaching assistant at the university.

At the age of seventeen or eighteen, hormones are at their peak.

Regardless of gender, everyone has a physiological instinctive desire to explore the opposite sex.

No matter who you are, they will look at you nakedly, like looking at a piece of top-quality Wagyu beef.

I want to eat it, but I’m afraid of the high price.

But after many close contacts with Xia An, she did not see that kind of straightforward desire in the other's eyes.

Tang Wan noticed that Xia An liked to smile.

That squinting, cheeky smile is full of wisdom.

She regretted not asking Xia An if he had a girlfriend before entering the room.

If so, will it have an impact on me?

If not, she firmly believed that Xia An would have a great impact on female students in her upcoming college life.

At this time, Tang Wan looked at Xia An's parents' bedroom for the first time.

very common.

Ordinary wedding photos, ordinary decoration, nothing more than bright and clean windows and desks.

She couldn't imagine how such a warm and beautiful but really ordinary family with no special features could raise a boy like Xia An?
This was probably the first time in her life that she felt curious about boys.

However, Tang Wan, who was in the midst of a conspiracy and was at a loss, had not yet realized that her curiosity about the opposite sex meant the beginning of her fall.

……

……

Xia An didn't fall asleep as quickly as Tang Wan.

Even though he was very tired and sleepy, the "big golden beans" had not yet been pocketed, and his brain was still running by inertia.

Tang Wan really didn't understand, otherwise she should have asked again before: Why did you register a foreign website? It can't be operated in China.

In fact, that was Xia An’s first pot of gold.

There are many opportunities in this era, such as the stock market, real estate, the Internet, etc., which can help people get rich quickly.

But they all require initial capital.

Ordinary people don’t have a father who can give you hundreds of millions of dollars to make mistakes, so it is extremely difficult to accumulate initial capital.

If he had returned a month earlier, Xia An was confident that he could have quietly pocketed around 50 million at the World Cup without being discovered.

But God made him miss it, so he could only find a backup plan.

Since we have set swallowing up the Tang Group as the first stage goal of rebirth.

Then proceed steadily and achieve it step by step.

Tang Wan was a bannerman.

Zhao Zhijing and Lin Jiajia's hospice project is a backup plan to put a dent in Tang Tianxing's side in the early to mid-term, and it needs time to develop.

Whether or not one can finally get hold of Zhao Zhijing's handle will not affect the overall situation.

The core of the plan is still money.

A few days ago, I was thinking about it and looking through the historical nodes in my mind, and he actually remembered a person and an event.

Cai Wensheng, domain name.

In the millennium, Tencent bought qq.com for US$200 million.

In 2015, 360 purchased 360.com from Vodafone for 1 million yuan.

In the same year, wanda.com, 6 million.

The previous owner bought it for eight million two years ago, waiting for Prince Wang to acquire it.

In his previous life, Xia An had learned about this when he was studying for an MBA at his own expense.

Domain name squatting is a hot speculation and has been commercially developed around the world since around 91.

There was already the first wave of registration rush.

After the second batch in 98 and 99, almost all the domain names that could be registered were registered.

However, Cai Wensheng's strategy of casting a wide net still achieved great success.

Xia An had thoroughly investigated the reasons and methods behind this.

To put it nicely, it pays attention to details.

To put it bluntly, it's like Yugong moving the mountain.

But once you do it, it's like picking up money.

The pinnacle acquisition in this industry will take place in early 2007.

In order to prevent competitors from becoming bigger and stronger, HomeAway's founder Brian will spend $3500 million to buy the VacationRentals domain name from an ordinary person named Johnny.

This set the record for the highest strategic acquisition price in this field, and no one surpassed it until the industry shrank.

The moment Xia An remembered this, he checked it online.

At present, the registered owner of this domain name is not Johnny, but a Canadian named John, who has held it for more than two years.

This means that this domain name will become invalid in the next few months.

For Xia An, this is a huge opportunity!
There is such a rule for registering a domain name. After successfully registering for 220 yuan, you still need to pay a maintenance fee every year. If you do not pay it on time, it will become invalid.

A classic case is Sina.

There may be less than 10 people in China who know that his original domain name was srsnet.

It was changed to sina because it was not renewed and lost, and was registered by someone else.

Xia An didn't know when VR would drop, so he could only wait and see.

But in the past two days, he has successively found the opportunity on Weibo, Weixin and Douyin...

360 is already in Vodafone's hands, so there's no chance.

220 yuan each, which used up most of his savings.

In other words, from this moment on, even if Xia An did nothing, Weibo would be bought by Sina by 2010 at the latest, and he would become worth millions overnight.

A few million? Too little.

It’s not enough to buy a big villa for my parents and little Youzi.

Xia An set the alarm and decided to sleep for three hours before getting up to continue squatting.

In his dream, he saw himself carrying thousands of hand-painted pomelo paintings and going to find his little pomelo.

I saw the Hope Primary School at the end of the national highway.

I saw little Yuzi become lame.

Smoke from the burning firewood rose above the earthen house, and the light rain of early winter in Daliang Mountain fell on the forehead of Zuo You, who was dressed in plain clothes.

She was stumbling forward, carrying a rusty iron bucket in both hands. Xia An also saw the dump truck and herself, a burning figure, from a third-person perspective.

On the muddy road, Zuo You ran in panic, and the drawing paper fell down with flames.

I was only a few steps away and could hug her again...

"Having a nightmare?"

Tang Wan's voice came from the master bedroom behind the sofa.

Xia An covered his chest and gasped for breath.

Then I heard a faint line again.

"My name is Pheasant, the chicken with a fork!"

There were no headphones on the computer at home, and Tang Wan had turned the volume of the speakers down very low.

But Xia An still heard it clearly.

Then there was a sound of frantic operation.

"I'm sorry, I was playing games and watching a movie at the same time. Did it disturb your sleep?"

The voice was weak and apologetic.

Xia An said, "It's okay. My ears are not good and I can't hear you. You continue while I wash my face."

Looking at the watch, he found that he had only slept for two hours, but he was no longer sleepy.

The huge regrets from his original life came across time and space from his dream, making it hard for him to breathe.

When Xia An was washing her face in the bathroom to refresh herself, she looked at her younger self in the mirror and felt extremely emotional.

Although they had not met yet, Zuo You and her parents must have been very young at that time.

They haven't had the chance to take a look and feel the prosperity of the future.

They should live in a big house and grow old happily.

Shouldn't have left too early.

All disasters can be averted in time.

Must be saved!

After a while, Tang Wan saw another side of Xia An that did not resemble a high school student.

Xia An came out with a washbasin and lay on the ground...to wipe the floor.

Cleaning up at 2am?
What kind of weird hobby is this?
Tang Wan covered her mouth and almost laughed out loud.

After cleaning up, Xia An started doing push-ups again.

Tang Wan stuck her head out to peek again.

She has a really nice figure...

Cooking porridge again?
Seeing that Xia An worked non-stop until half past three, Tang Wan was also tired of sitting.

As he stood up to get some water, he said to Xia An, "I won over 20 million Happy Beans for you."

Xia An chopped radish and said with a smile, "That's amazing."

After two seconds, he suddenly asked in surprise: "How much?"

Tang Wan raised two fingers leisurely. "Twenty million. I've boosted your QQ account's win rate to 96%."

Xia An's eyes darted around, and he suddenly asked her, "Can you play Texas Hold'em?"

Tang Wan shook her head in a daze, but understood what he meant.

"I had a classmate who went to play blackjack and gambled and got arrested."

Xia An smiled and said, "I'm talking about the JJ competition. It's a formal one. Winning prizes and gifts is not illegal."

"I know this. I've played it before. It was Landlord (card game) and I won a computer and phone bill."

Speaking of this, Tang Wan suddenly became interested and proudly told Xia An that she would play online when she was bored.

I used to win with cell phones and computers when I was in college.

Once, she saw a very expensive little skirt and hesitated for a long time before buying it. She didn't want to ask her second uncle for money, so she sold the prize she won and earned enough money for living expenses.

Xia An added salt and pepper to the shredded radish and mixed it well with chopsticks.

He sighed and said, "You have such strong mathematical ability, why don't you go abroad to study?"

Talking about her major, Tang Wan explained it to him in detail, as if she could finally show off to Xia An in some aspect.

She said that she is not good at math, but she is good at calculation.

“My ability is not outstanding, I can only say that I have some talent.

"The domestic education model produces many people with strong numeracy skills. But this isn't true mathematical ability, and it's far from enough to enable systematic and in-depth research."

This was an area Xia An had never been exposed to, so it was considered a learning experience.

Looking at Tang Wan, he thought that everyone has their strengths and weaknesses, and this silly girl also has her remarkable qualities.

Xia An said, "The porridge will be ready soon. Why don't you eat some before going to sleep? I'll come and squat during the day..."

Hearing him talk about staking out, Tang Wan suddenly remembered something.

“Oh yeah, your website turned green, then gray again… ugh!”

Clang!

The kitchen knife fell to the ground and Xia An ran into the house.

The screen is divided into thirds.

Web pages for registered domain names account for the largest half.

On the other side, there is the Landlord interface on the top and PPS and "Young and Dangerous 3" in a small window on the bottom.

Refresh, refresh...still gray.

3500 million US dollars, exchange rate of 7.8.

2.7 million is gone?

It's impossible to say I don't feel heartbroken.

But can Tang Wan be blamed for this?

I didn't explain it to her clearly in the first place, and I couldn't tell her how much it was worth.

Xia An bit her tongue hard.

Why do I have to sleep for these two hours?

He blamed himself and God.

From two days ago to the beginning of next year, there is a possibility of something happening in the few months in between.

How could it happen by chance that it happened during the two hours she took over?
The cause failed...

Xia An thought about this sentence again, and it was hard to deny that Tang Wan's appearance was deeply involved with him.

Tang Wan, ah Tang Wan.
After rinsing the kitchen knife, Tang Wan walked into the house leisurely. She tilted her head and asked him curiously:

"What's wrong? Is it really worth a lot of money?"

Beauty is justice, Xia An consoled himself with a wry smile, "It's not bad, it's worth it."

Tang Wan asked in confusion, "Then why do you look unhappy?"

"?"

"I submitted it for you, and I see that all the names displayed have changed to yours. Does that count as a success?"

"!"

 Seeking investment, collection, reading and comments.
