Chapter 208 Thank you, my good brother
Chapter 208 Thank you, my good brother
Yang Siqi's mental state collapsed.
I've never encountered such a difficult freshman.
Putting aside his role as a lackey for Renren.com and his theft of his own home at Jiangda University, how did he end up being associated with Yan Ruoxuan?
What if we kick him out of the student council, and Yan Ruoxuan also quits?
What if I try to pressure Dong Peixin again and he turns around and quits his class officer position? Then, the saying "being close to the water tower gives you the first taste of the moon" will be meaningless, and Yan Ruoxuan will probably avoid me.
Having no other options, he could only exchange a few polite words with Dong Peixin. On his way out of the office, he kept thinking about how he could teach Chen Cheng a lesson.
Chen Cheng didn't take him seriously. After leaving the teaching building, he went straight to the commercial street, where he supervised the demolition and expansion of two other sites on the second floor. Then he went to the server hosting provider and deposited 500,000 yuan to have them expand the number of servers and increase bandwidth.
The boss treated him like a god of wealth, exchanging 500,000 for a 600,000 yuan spending credit.
He also considered setting up his own data center. After all, large websites can't rely on other people's data centers for long, and there aren't any cloud service providers that are large enough right now. If he didn't give this server hosting provider more money, it simply wouldn't be able to continue expanding its server equipment.
Moreover, the boss was quite shrewd. He guessed that Chen Cheng would eventually move out, so he made an agreement with Chen Cheng that from now on, the server hardware he purchased for the campus network would have to be bought back by Chen Cheng at the original price when he moved out. Otherwise, if he was left with a large number of servers but there was no demand for them, he would definitely suffer a huge loss.
Chen Cheng readily agreed.
The simplest and most convenient way to relocate servers nowadays is through physical relocation, which involves moving all the servers to a new data center, powering them on, and connecting them to the network to resume operation.
The advantages are high speed and high stability. After all, current network bandwidth is relatively small, and large websites have a huge amount of data, making online migration very troublesome.
The downside is that if the server needs to be shut down, it can take anywhere from a few hours to several days to relocate.
Chen Cheng estimated the cost of building his own data center. To achieve true stability and speed and be able to support development needs for the next year or two, it would cost at least 20 to 30 million yuan. Even if he sold all his quotas, he wouldn't be able to come up with that much money.
There is another relatively safe transitional approach, which is to find advanced IDC data centers in big cities. However, this would mean that the servers would have to be relocated at least twice more in the future.
Therefore, he paid the server hosting company 500,000 yuan upfront to have them set up the hardware first, and then used the money to build his own data center after he actually raised his first round of funding.
The self-built data center will definitely still be in Jiangcheng, so when the servers are relocated in the future, I can pay for the servers in full and take them with me. It can be done in a few hours at night, which is relatively more convenient for me.
In fact, it was very common for internet companies to migrate servers in the early years. Websites and games would often shut down and then issue announcements saying that the servers would be migrated at a certain time and access would be suspended.
Later, with the emergence of integrated cloud service providers like Alibaba Cloud, this situation became increasingly rare.

After leaving the computer room, Chen Cheng called Lu Youyou, wanting to ask her out for a casual meal and give her his card.
As soon as the call connected, Chen Cheng asked her directly, "Xiao Lu, are you free? How about we go out for a meal?"
Lu Youyou had already eaten in the cafeteria, but upon hearing his words, she laughed heartily and agreed, "Okay, what do you want to eat?"
Chen Cheng said, "Let's find one near your school. I'll take a taxi there now."
"Okay."
Lu Youyou said happily, "A new hot pot restaurant has opened. Do you want to try it?"
"it is good!"
Chen Cheng readily agreed and asked her, "Where shall we meet?"
"At the school gate!"
"OK!"
After hanging up the phone, Chen Cheng hailed a taxi and headed straight for Renji Medical College.
In the villa district in the north of the city, Qin Jianshe returned home from the vehicle management office. The first thing he did was to brag to his wife: "The number of vehicle license plates increased by 10,000 today. Several of my business friends found out that I had acquired Jietong Taxi, and they're all scrambling to grab license plates everywhere."
His wife said with a smile, "Then our profits have increased by several hundred thousand!"
"Yes!"
Qin Jianshe said smugly, "A guy who works in the clothing industry heard that I acquired Jietong Taxi and called me today, saying he would give me an extra 200,000 yuan to transfer the company to him. He also wants to come in and have some fun, but there aren't many quotas left to acquire, so he wants to get a whole batch in one go."
His wife asked, "So what do you think?"
Qin Jianshe replied without hesitation, "I definitely can't agree to that. The people from Wencheng haven't left yet, which proves that the price is still a long way from peaking. Conservatively speaking, each indicator should exceed 300,000. I'm not that greedy. I'll start making a move when it reaches 270,000 or 280,000."
His wife nodded, but asked with some concern, "Do you think the price of this indicator won't fall any further?"
"will not."
Qin Jianshe said confidently, "Do you think I'm stupid? How could I enter this industry without doing my research? I've already consulted with people in the transportation department. They won't be issuing any new taxi licenses in the next year. As long as they don't issue more, how can the price of the licenses go down? It's like housing prices; once they're inflated, they won't go down. At most, they can't rise any higher, but they definitely won't fall."
"That's good."
His wife breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "If it really goes up to 270,000 or 280,000 as you said, then we can make at least a few million this time."
"more than."
Qin Jianshe said, "I've already made arrangements with that kid surnamed Chen. If he sells the other 40 quotas, he'll give me priority. I've already started contacting channels to raise funds. I'll take all the properties and stuff to use as collateral in the next couple of days."
His wife, now much more confident, had no objection to mortgaging the property. She simply remarked, "I never imagined that Lu Zhixing would offer you such a lucrative investment opportunity after just one meeting. If he knew you'd already invested and made so much money in such a short time, he'd definitely be upset, wouldn't he?" "Of course!"
Qin Jianshe sneered, "This guy definitely doesn't want me to have a good life. Last time he wanted to come over and show off to me, but he accidentally helped me make a fortune, maybe a lot of money."
After saying that, he suddenly took out his phone and said with a smile, "I'll give him a call to see what my old buddy is up to and whether he's had dinner yet."
Lu Zhixing had just arrived home, and the couple were having a simple home-cooked meal at the dining table.
When he saw Qin Jianshe calling, he instinctively felt a bit disgusted. He hesitated for a moment, staring at his phone, but finally picked it up and pressed the answer button: "Hey, Lao Qin, why are you calling at this hour?"
Qin Jianshe said with a smile, "Oh, I missed you, so I called to ask what you've been up to."
Lu Zhixing pursed his lips, but smiled and said, "What else could I be busy with? I just got home and am eating right now. So, what did you want to see me about?"
Qin Jianshe laughed and said, "I mainly wanted to thank you, my good brother!"
Lu Zhixing chuckled and said, "You're always trying to distract me. I haven't helped you with anything, so why are you thanking me?"
Qin Jianshe said in a serious tone, "You've done me a huge favor! Do you remember what you told me last time?"
Lu Zhixing asked in confusion, "What is it?"
Qin Jianshe said, "It's about that guy Xiao Chen making money by reselling taxi license plates."
"Oh oh."
Lu Zhixing asked him curiously, "What? You're here too?"
"Correct!"
Qin Jianshe smiled smugly: "You know my style of doing things, the faster the better. I entered the market the same day you told me. And yesterday I acquired a company. Isn't that a coincidence? It's the same company that Xiao Chen you mentioned, Jietong Taxi."
"I rely on!"
Lu Zhixing exclaimed in surprise and asked, "You bought Xiao Chen's company?"
"Correct!"
Qin Jianshe laughed and said, "I just bought his company yesterday, and today someone offered me 200,000 more to buy it. Hey Lao Lu, you don't know how hot the taxi license market is right now. Everyone wants to get a piece of the pie."
Lu Zhixing assumed Chen Cheng had sold at a loss and asked curiously, "How much did you pay for Xiao Chen's company?"
Qin Jianshe said, "Eight million four hundred thousand."
Wow! That's so tall!
Lu Zhixing was astonished. Eight million four hundred thousand! Chen Cheng had made over six million in one go!
Although we may have sold it at a slight loss, a profit of over six million is still very high.
Qin Jianshe also sighed, "I have to say, that young Chen is really something. Damn, he's so young, yet he dares to have eighty quotas in his hands..."
"Eighty?"
Lu Zhixing frowned and asked, "Wasn't it forty?"
Qin Jianshe originally wanted to say that Chen Cheng still had forty more, but then he thought that Lu Zhixing probably didn't know how many quotas Chen Cheng had either!
Now everyone is eyeing this business. What if Lu Zhixing finds out that Chen Cheng has forty quotas and tries to steal his?
So he quickly corrected himself: "Yes, there are forty. What's wrong?"
Lu Zhixing reminded him, "You just said eighty."
Qin Jianshe said, "Oh, then I probably misspoke."
Lu Zhixing then asked him, "Have you settled the money with Xiao Chen yet?"
"Nope."
Qin Jianshe said, "Xiao Chen hired a scalper to handle the paperwork. I will pay him the balance after all the paperwork is completed."
Lu Zhixing cautioned him, "You mustn't deliberately delay paying Xiao Chen!"
Qin Jianshe laughed and said, "What are you thinking? Little Chen is very shrewd. The contract clearly states that the contract will only be effective after all the money has been paid. Otherwise, even if the company has been changed, it will be considered invalid. This kid is clever."
"That's good."
Relieved, Lu Zhixing deliberately exclaimed, "Hey Lao Qin, you're really not being fair!"
Qin Jianshe thought he was referring to him making money from his information, so he laughed and said, "Old Lu, I only started paying attention to this industry because of your reminder. I didn't steal your business, so how is that unfair?"
Lu Zhixing said, "When I was short of money, I asked you for help, but you made all sorts of excuses to refuse. But when you started making money, you just bought something for 8.4 million yuan without hesitation. Including the batch you collected before, you've invested more than 10 million yuan in the last few days, right?"
