Since they are reborn, they must be supported by the school beauties.

Chapter 111 Galo Forum
Chen Cheng and Wu Haoyang each drank two bottles of beer, and comfortably drove Lu Youyou back to school along the same route. When Chen Cheng got out of the car, he left the driver enough money to take Wu Haoyang to school before waving goodbye.

Wu Haoyang felt embarrassed and chased after him to get the money, but Chen Cheng didn't give him a chance to talk back. He banged on the roof of the car twice against the door and told the driver to drive away.

Back in the dorm, my roommates had just returned and were still discussing the day's battle at the internet cafe.

After greeting the others, Chen Cheng climbed back to his upper bunk, grabbed his laptop, and continued working on the website.

The others were bored, so they started playing cards in the dormitory. While they were having a great time, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Su Hexiang ran to open the door, and several older boys stepped in.

The leader wasn't tall, but he had a commanding presence. As soon as he entered, he asked, "Which class are you computer science freshmen from?"

At this moment, Su Hexiang asked with some surprise, "Who are you? Why are you asking this?"

The chubby, dark-skinned man to the right of the leader spoke up: "Let me introduce you. This is Yang Siqi, the president of our Computer Science Student Union. President Yang is also a member of the presidium of our Jiangnan University Student Union."

Upon hearing that it was the student council president, Kong Desheng, whose face was covered with a note, immediately put down his playing cards and went up to him in a friendly manner, saying with a smile, "Hello, President Yang, we are from Class 3 of Computer Science."

Upon hearing the other person announce their name, Chen Cheng, who was sitting on the upper bunk, looked up at them.

Yang Siqi is an old acquaintance from a past life.

This guy is a big name in the computer science department.

Not only was he the president of the college's student union, but during his time at the university, he also led several classmates to found the Galo Forum, which was the most popular campus forum at Jiangda University at the time.

At the time, the Galo Forum was very successful and was even promoted by the school as a successful entrepreneurial case. It can be regarded as a model of independent entrepreneurship projects among Jiangnan University students.

When Chen Cheng was a sophomore, Yang Siqi came to their grade to recruit part-time front-end developers, and Chen Cheng applied and worked with them for a few months.

At that time, Yang Siqi applied for a classroom from the college leaders and got a batch of computers, where the technical staff of Galo Forum worked.

Chen Cheng worked there for several months, and Yang Siqi kept delaying his salary with various excuses. Later, Yang Siqi even promised to give Chen Cheng some shares, and that the salary and shares would be paid in cash in one lump sum after the forum was sold.

At that time, Chen Cheng had little social experience and trusted Yang Siqi, so he took his words seriously.

As a result, before Chen Cheng even received his salary, Yang Siqi secretly sold the Galo Forum to a local company that specializes in campus forums just before graduation, cashing out 200,000 yuan to start his own business in Beijing.

The Galo Forum is a domain registered under Yang Siqi's personal name, and the server is also under his personal name. It has been operating for several years without becoming a corporate entity.

He promised his classmates and partners a certain percentage of shares, but never signed any agreement, so in the end he also cheated his entrepreneurial partners who had shared joys and sorrows.

The senior students who were scammed wanted to sue him, but they reportedly gave up after a while because the website undoubtedly belonged to Yang Siqi, and all his verbal promises were unsubstantiated, so they had no way to protect their rights.

Chen Cheng hadn't signed any employment agreement with Yang Siqi at the time, so he had no way to protect his rights and could only swallow this bitter pill.

At this moment, Yang Siqi interrupted his reminiscence. He smiled and handed a few cards to the group, saying, "Junior students, I've created a campus forum. Each college in our school has its own sub-forum, and there's also a chat area and a flea market. You're welcome to register an account and join in."

Kong Desheng was very polite to Yang Siqi, and quickly stepped forward to take the card, saying with a smile, "Senior Yang is amazing, starting a business while still in school!"

As he spoke, he distributed the cards to his other roommates.

He handed a document to Chen Cheng, who was in the upper bunk. Chen Cheng glanced at it and saw that it was written with the name Yang Siqi, the founder of the Galo Forum, and below it were a mobile phone number, a QQ number, and a forum address starting with BBS.

Yang Siqi smiled and instructed, "If you juniors would do me a favor, remember to register an account and then post a report in the newcomer section of the forum, stating your dormitory number and name. I will then give you some of our forum's gold coins, which you can use to give some virtual gifts to the female students."

Chen Cheng was secretly surprised. In his previous life, he had only worked as a front-end developer for Yang Siqi, but he didn't really understand Yang Siqi's approach to running the Galo Forum.

In his past life, he remembered a similar scene, but as a freshman, he had a natural tendency to obey his seniors, especially those in the student council, so he didn't objectively analyze his behavior.

From today's perspective, Yang Siqi is quite capable.

Before military training was even over, he came to the freshmen dormitories to do offline promotion. Campus forums, which are highly localized vertical websites, have an underlying logic similar to community group buying groups in later generations. Offline promotion is the best way to attract users.

Moreover, he was quite adept at using his status as a senior student and student council president to employ a combination of carrot and stick tactics. He required everyone to post reports in the forum's administration section, which meant he had to go up there to verify the information. Anyone who hadn't registered would likely be remembered by him.

Since everyone is a freshman, no one wants to offend a senior student who is powerful and influential. Registering for the forum is such a simple favor, so naturally no one would refuse.

In this way, these new students will be converted by his forum immediately.

With more people, the forum's popularity increased, and with increased popularity, it became easy to get advertising deals from offline businesses, naturally driving up advertising fees. Kong Desheng was ambitious for officialdom; besides wanting to take the civil service exam after graduation, he also hoped to obtain an official position in the student union.

They happened to run into the president of the college's student union, so he was naturally very attentive and quickly said, "Don't worry, senior, we'll register right away!"

After saying that, she pointed to Chen Cheng on the upper bunk: "It just so happens that Old Chen in our dorm has a computer and the internet is connected! We'll borrow his computer to register in a bit!"

Yang Siqi noticed Chen Cheng holding a laptop and was immediately surprised. She stepped forward and asked with a smile, "Junior, you're quite well-off! Military training isn't even over yet, and you already have a laptop! Have you already started programming?"

Chen Cheng smiled and said, "Not yet, we're just getting to know each other better first."

Yang Siqi nodded and smiled with appreciation, "Your qualifications are indeed quite good. Our forum is currently short-staffed, especially for administrators who can be on duty at night. You have a laptop and an internet connection. Are you interested in giving it a try? If so, let's exchange contact information, and I'll give you a detailed introduction later. I'll even offer you a deputy moderator position."

Chen Cheng shook his head decisively: "I'm sorry, senior, I have a lot of things to do and I really don't have any extra energy."

Chen Cheng knew exactly who Yang Siqi was. This person was good at taking advantage of every resource he could get for free, and he was proud of it.

During his time as student council president, he frequently arranged for aspiring students to help promote his Galo Forum.

In my memory, Kong Desheng used to help him sweep the dormitories of other colleges every day, thinking that by being proactive, he could gain Yang Siqi's appreciation and join the student union to get a position. In the end, he barely managed to become a member of the student union and didn't get any title.

Yang Siqi was surprised that the student council president had taken the initiative to extend an olive branch to his junior, a tactic that had always worked. The boy didn't take the bait, making Yang Siqi feel embarrassed and quite annoyed.

Generally speaking, people who like to cheat and swindle, and take advantage of others, are narrow-minded, and Yang Siqi is no exception.

He said to Chen Cheng with a half-smile, "Young man, would you be interested in joining our college's student union in the future? The student union will be recruiting new members after the military training ends."

Chen Cheng understood what he meant.

The school's student union is divided into two levels: one is the university's student union, and the other is the independent primary student union of each college.

In theory, if a freshman wants to join the student union, the first step should be to join the student union of the advanced college, and only then will they have the opportunity to join the university student union.

Therefore, if Chen Cheng wants to join the student council, he must go through Yang Siqi. In other words, if he doesn't give him face, he can forget about joining the student council.

Chen Cheng, reborn, could be more cunning than Yang Siqi and more shrewd than Kong Desheng, but he didn't want to.

Yang Siqi was no match for him, so he smiled and said decisively, "I'm sorry, senior, I'm not interested in the student council, so I won't participate."

Yang Siqi was even more displeased.

He swept up from the first floor, and everyone who saw him bowed and scraped before him.

Many people even volunteered to become moderators on the forum, but I didn't even think much of it. There were so many people who wanted to be moderators, how could it be the turn of these newbies?

I thought I'd let this guy be a volunteer administrator since he has a computer and internet access, but he didn't give me any face at all.

Yang Siqi noted down Chen Cheng's bed number and smiled slightly, "Junior, you're in Computer Science Class 3, right? We'll have plenty of opportunities to get to know each other in the future, and I'll take good care of you."

Then, he said to Chen Cheng's other roommates, "Don't forget to register an account, juniors. I will send you coins in the background later."

The others remained silent, but Kong Desheng smiled and agreed, "Don't worry, senior, we'll register as soon as possible."

Yang Siqi gave Chen Cheng a deep look, then turned and left with his entourage.

As soon as he left, Kong Desheng hurried over to Chen Cheng's upper bunk, leaning on the railing and exclaiming, "Old Chen, that guy is the student council president, how did you offend him right away?"

Chen Cheng laughed and retorted, "Otherwise what? Either offend him, or work for him for free. Do you think I have the time and energy to do free labor for him?"

Kong Desheng clicked his tongue and said, "The key is that you've offended him, and he'll definitely cause you trouble in the future."

"Look for it."

Chen Cheng said nonchalantly, "A student council president can at most block my evaluations and awards, which I don't care about."

After saying that, Chen Cheng smiled contemptuously, thinking to himself, "Even if he doesn't come looking for trouble, I will."

At this moment, he had already come up with a good way to quickly promote the campus network at Jiangda University, directly attracting users of the Galo Forum to the campus network and making them the first batch of users of the campus network.
