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

Chapter 196 Is this stuff really that profitable?
Chen Cheng's proposed solution left the group of naive computer science students speechless.

No one expected that the problem could be solved in this way.

Moreover, this solution sounds like a perfect example of using minimal effort to achieve maximum effect!

With the same e-commerce data, once the data of the first batch of users is sent, subsequent users can share the data with each other without needing their own servers to process it. This means that the massive e-commerce platform can not only serve millions of people at the same time, but also does not have to worry about causing traffic congestion.

Xiao Peng excitedly pumped his fist and said, "This idea is brilliant! As long as we expand along this line of thinking, there are many ways to save bandwidth. For example, the default campus show for male and female users is the same for both. If we put the data of these two default campus shows into this logic, we can save a lot of traffic."

Then, he continued excitedly, "And another thing, although everyone's page and album are different, some users with a lot of fans, such as Yan Ruoxuan from our school, have a very high album access rate. If we cache the content of her album as well, we can save a lot of data!"

Chen Cheng nodded: "Senior Xiao did a great job of applying what he learned to other situations. We can write a piece of logic in the program: if the data requested by user A is already cached by other users, then let other users send the cache to him first."

Chen Cheng added, "Furthermore, we can also explore ways to avoid sending data one-to-one, as that might be too slow. After all, the downlink speed of all home networks and internet cafe lines is currently higher than the uplink speed, resulting in slower data upload speeds. If we can develop a many-to-one technology, that would be even more perfect. For example, if a user wants to open this online store page, which contains 5MB of data, we can have five users send it to him together. The 5MB of data is split into five packets, with each user sending 1MB. Wouldn't that be much faster?"

"Furthermore, we can further optimize the algorithm of this technology, such as prioritizing other users closest to the data requester to upload cache. If everyone is a user within the Jiangda campus network, the data transmission between them will be faster."

Everyone suddenly felt as if they had opened the door to a new world.

As the most technically skilled expert, Chen Wei, like a groom about to consummate his marriage, was excited yet somewhat embarrassed, and cautiously asked Chen Cheng, "Mr. Chen, this method is good, but what if user A discovers that we've used user A's uplink bandwidth?"

"So what if they found it?"

Chen Cheng's answer was nonchalant, casually saying, "It's just a little bit of upload bandwidth. Without professional traffic monitoring software, it's impossible to detect. Besides, even if it is detected, it doesn't matter. Next time, we'll add a user agreement to the campus network login page. In the user agreement, we'll add some unimportant clauses and a clause allowing the campus network to upload non-user privacy data."

At this point, he asked Chen Wei, "Look at internet companies these days, which one hasn't done some underhanded things? Some companies only plagiarize, some only accept fake ads, some only engage in piracy, some do borderline pornography, and some even make a profit by developing cheats and unofficial plugins. All we're doing is creating a new data-sharing model within the campus network architecture. Modern college students are united and friendly, everyone for me and me for everyone, what's a little bit of this? Besides, most users access the internet in internet cafes, so we're not using the users' bandwidth, we're using the internet cafes' bandwidth."

Upon hearing Chen Cheng's words, everyone nodded in agreement.

If we're really talking about the original sins of internet companies, what Chen Cheng did is nothing compared to what's really going on. If other company bosses were arrested and sentenced, Chen Cheng would be the kind of person who would be kicked out of the police station if he went to turn himself in.

Chen Cheng genuinely believed that even if he were to engage in some opportunistic practices regarding bandwidth and it were eventually exposed, he would still be the cleanest person among the internet giants in terms of his origins.

Moreover, many companies will secretly engage in this kind of activity in the future, especially a certain strange PCDN technology, which is a true bandwidth killer.

Therefore, everyone immediately decided that when developing the e-commerce platform, they would first develop a basic data sharing technology specifically for the platform.
-
The combined efficiency of more than twenty college students is unmatched by even the elites of most startups.

With several development tasks in front of them, everyone immediately started working hard, ignoring all non-required courses, and nothing could stop their determination to write code.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, while everyone was working hard to finish their work, Lu Zhixing drove his Mercedes-Benz S600 with his wife Xiao Suqin to Jiangcheng.

As he approached Jiangcheng city, he made a phone call to Qin Xiaobo's father, Qin Jianshe.

As soon as the call connected, Qin Jianshe said with a hint of sarcasm, "Hey, Boss Lu, it's been a while since you contacted me! Have you been too busy making money lately to think about your old friend?"

"What you're saying is like talking to a brick wall."

Lu Zhixing chuckled and said, "We're like family, why would I look down on you? Besides, I might not even be as successful as you!"

Qin Jianshe laughed and said, "Enough with the nonsense. Tell me, what do you want?"

"Nothing."

Lu Zhixing said, "I just arrived in Jiangcheng city and was thinking of asking if you were at home or at the company so I could come and visit you."

"Oh, Mr. Lu, you're too kind."

Qin Jianshe asked in surprise, "Why are you in Jiangcheng at this time? Do you have business?"

"No."

Lu Zhixing casually said, "I came to see my daughter. She hasn't finished her get out of class yet, so Suqin and I decided to see you first. She hasn't seen you in years."

Qin Jianshe suddenly realized and laughed, "So you came to see Youyou. How about I treat you and your family of three to dinner tonight? I'll also invite my wife and son." Lu Zhixing laughed, "Tonight won't work. How about we postpone it to tomorrow? Tonight, besides having dinner with Youyou, I also need to meet Youyou's classmates and take care of some other things."

Qin Jianshe readily agreed, "No problem, let's tentatively schedule it for tomorrow. I'm at the company now. If you and Suqin are free, come over and have a cup of tea."

"Okay, we'll be there in about twenty minutes."

Lu Zhixing hung up the phone, and Xiao Suqin, who was standing next to him, frowned and asked him, "Are you taking Youyou to dinner with them tomorrow?"

"Who eats with him?"

Lu Zhixing said with a look of disdain, "It's just to appease him. If I hadn't said that, he might have thought I was just showing off to him, and he might have made an excuse not to see me. You see, as soon as I said we'd have dinner together tomorrow, he invited us to his company for tea."

"When we drive back tomorrow during the day, I'll call him and say something came up and we'll reschedule. What can he say then?"

Xiao Suqin smiled helplessly and sighed, "Actually, you two should really become sworn brothers. Neither of you is kind enough."

Lu Zhixing said seriously, "I don't usually act like this. It's only towards him. If it weren't for what happened last time, I wouldn't have been able to see through this person. Now that I'm here, I'm going to give him a piece of my mind and make him so angry that he can't sleep for three nights."

Twenty minutes later, Lu Zhixing parked his car downstairs at Qin Jianshe's company building.

The couple went upstairs together, and Qin Jianshe took the initiative to greet them warmly at the company entrance.

It's been years since I've seen you two together.

Upon seeing the two, he immediately adopted a cheerful demeanor, as if he were overjoyed to have friends coming from afar, and said with a beaming smile, "Old Lu, Suqin, it's been years since I've seen you two together! Come in, come in!"

After greeting him, Lu Zhixing and his wife followed him into the company and went directly to his office.

Qin Jianshe had already boiled the water and, after inviting the two to sit down, began to make tea for them.

He handed two cups of tea to the couple, and then said to Xiao Suqin with a sigh, "Suqin, you don't know, last time when Lao Lu was in trouble, I was so anxious that I was looking everywhere for people to raise money, hoping to raise ten million to help Lao Lu get through the crisis. But I never expected that Lao Lu would solve the problem himself!"

Xiao Suqin could tell at a glance that Qin Jianshe's words were full of insincerity. She was disgusted, but since he was her husband's friend, she didn't want to embarrass him in front of him. So she could only force a smile and remain silent.

Lu Zhixing, standing nearby, chuckled and said, "Old Qin, to be honest, I didn't solve that problem myself. How could I possibly have that ability? If I really had that ability, I wouldn't have come all the way to Jiangcheng to beg you."

At this point, he said with emotion, "It's all thanks to one of my daughter Youyou's high school classmates. It was such a coincidence that he knew Mr. Zhang, who was in charge of sales at Yuanteng Group. He made a phone call, and they directly sent 60,000 tons of coal over."

Qin Jianshe actually already knew the details of the matter, after all, his son Qin Xiaobo was sitting in Lu Zhixing's Mercedes-Benz at the time.

This incident made him so upset that he couldn't eat for several days. Later, he would still feel indignant about it every time he thought about it, and he would curse Lu Zhixing every time, saying that the guy had gotten lucky.

Hearing Lu Zhixing mention this matter and Lu Youyou's classmate, he suddenly remembered that Lu Zhixing had just said he was going to have dinner with Lu Youyou and her classmate that night, and he couldn't help but wonder: "Is Lu Zhixing going to treat that kid to dinner tonight?"

Thinking of this, he simply asked, "Old Lu, you said there are Youyou's classmates at dinner tonight, could it be that young man?"

"Correct."

Lu Zhixing didn't hide anything, nodded, and then said with a sigh, "Oh my, you don't know, this classmate of yours, Youyou, is really something. Look at him, he's not even 19 years old yet, not only is his social circle amazing, but he's also very capable. Before National Day, he acquired a taxi company, bought 40 taxis and 40 taxi license plates for 2 million yuan. As far as I know, they're worth over 6 million yuan now. And look how many days that has been?"

"I rely on!"

Qin Jianshe exclaimed in surprise, "Really? You can earn 400 million in just half a month?"

Lu Zhixing nodded and asked him, "Didn't you know about the price increase for taxi license plates in Jiangcheng? A group of people from Wencheng came and drove up the price."

Qin Jianshe frowned and said, "I think I heard about it somewhere a while ago, but I got busy and didn't pay attention."

At this point, he couldn't help but feel a little itchy and asked, "Is this stuff really that profitable?"
