Chapter 55

Simply put: Since it's the Internet Empire, even if it's just an exaggerated term! However, with the core industries rooted in e-commerce, search, and instant messaging, the protagonist, with his cheating rebirth perspective, naturally can't be limited to just the domestic market! Otherwise, the scope would be too small. I've created a regular group, and the book reviews are blocked, so I can only post here: 288386567. Friends who are interested can join!

The next morning, Song Chen, who was sleeping soundly, was woken by the woman in his arms. Looking out the window, the sky was already slightly bright, and a light mist had left a thin layer of moisture on the window. Turning back, he saw Xu Xiaoying looking at him with a complex and shy expression. He looked at her in confusion, then lay down again, hugging her well-proportioned body.

"It's still early!" Song Chen muttered.

"I'm afraid the classmates will come early to use the internet!" Xu Xiaoying gently pushed Song Chen's chest and smiled faintly, "You don't want to be seen, right?"

Song Chen groaned with his eyes closed, but had no choice but to sit up. The thin blanket was lifted, revealing Xu Xiaoying's flawless, pale body. Song Chen, still half-asleep, turned back and saw Xu Xiaoy blushing and holding the blanket to cover her body. His heart skipped a beat, and the already aroused giant trembled.

"Early exercise is good for the body!"

Unable to resist, Song Chen lifted the thin blanket and pressed Xu Xiaoying under him again.

As Xu Xiaoying's enticing moans sounded again, the old bungalow was filled with the music of spring.

Before seven o'clock, to avoid being seen by acquaintances, Song Chen left quietly from the back door with his briefcase.

When he arrived at the computer room, the stifling air hit him again as he opened the door. He saw that the employees were working through the night. Seeing the boss come so early, the employee looked embarrassed and said, "The customers just left!"

Song Chen smiled and nodded, looking around. He noticed two customers sleeping at the computer desks—this was quite rare, as early computer room all-nighters rarely chose to sleep! This phenomenon was more common in internet cafes, after all, the all-night fees here were much higher than in later internet cafes!

After settling the accounts, Song Chen took the bus back home.

Li Wan had already gone to work. Just as Song Chen was about to wash his face and brush his teeth, his phone rang—it was Ye Lin.

"The internet cafe is starting renovation. Do you want to come and see if anything needs to be changed?"

A long time ago, Ye Lin's brother Ye Feng had already provided a complete design for the internet cafe renovation. Song Chen had seen the style and, although he was not a designer or particularly talented in this area, he had left his mark in internet cafes all over the country, so he had some insight and offered many suggestions.

"I have things to do today, but I'll come by when I have time! By the way, is Jiang Yan there?"

"Jiang Yan?" Ye Lin's voice was slightly curious, "She only comes occasionally. What do you need her for?"

"Hehe, I need her help with something!"

At this point, Song Chen suddenly felt that asking Jiang Yan or Zhao Lin for help might not be a good idea. Perhaps they wouldn't take these small favors to heart, but once the business grew, it would be a significant favor. The early funding gap, the saved server hosting fees, and loan fees might not bring much benefit. After all, servers and future human resources were the real money pits.

"She doesn't have a phone yet, but I have her pager number. Do you want it?"

"Never mind, we'll talk about it later! When will the internet cafe be finished?"

"We're having the workers work overtime. It should be ready by New Year's Day at the latest... Yang De is calling me, I have to go! Remember to come by when you have time!"

"Okay!"

When he returned to the company, the employees and servers from the浪潮 company had already arrived. Qiu Lin, Zhang Dayu, and others were optimizing the server for the QQ program with the help of the浪潮 company employees. Xu Xiaoying was also helping out. Seeing Song Chen enter with his briefcase, her face turned red, and she shyly avoided looking at the boy who had taken her virginity, who was smiling.

Seeing Xu Xiaoying's shy expression, Song Chen smiled, but he didn't want to tease her in front of others, so he let it go.

Seeing his employees working hard, as an outsider, he couldn't help much, so he sat at his computer with his briefcase and logged into Verisign and the International Internet Network Information Center to register the main domains "CSTAR," "QQ," ".com," ".net," ".cn," and ".info."

It must be said that for someone used to the high-speed internet of the future, the early internet speed was so slow that Song Chen had no desire to use it. Moreover, there were few content providers at the time, which was why even with dial-up internet installed in the company, Song Chen rarely went online.

At this moment, Xu Xiaoying, blushing, walked over. Seeing that Song Chen seemed busy, she hesitated to speak.

Song Chen looked up, glanced at the busy others, and smiled at Xu Xiaoying, "Do you have something to say to me?"

Biting her lower lip, Xu Xiaoying's lips, which were no longer dry and had a hint of red, moved for a while, but she couldn't say anything. Song Chen, both amused and exasperated, shook his head, "Forget it, I know what you want to say... After I finish this, let's go to lunch! Then to the hospital, okay?"

Xu Xiaoying's face turned red, and she nodded obediently.

Watching Xu Xiaoying's back as she turned away, thinking of her white, tender, and fiery body under her sweater, Song Chen pondered which hotel to go to after the hospital to enjoy her soft and gentle tenderness.

Unfortunately, Song Chen's numerous evil thoughts were ultimately disappointed because before noon, Zhang Ruoxi walked in with a smile, followed by Zhao Lin, who was also smiling. She was holding a rolled-up A4 white paper.

Amidst the envious and jealous gazes of others, the increasingly womanly Zhao Lin came to Song Chen's side, hugged his arm, and smiled, "Are you done? Let's go, I'm hungry!"

Song Chen felt helpless, met Xu Xiaoying's understanding but resentful gaze from a distance, and nodded, "I know!"

Looking at Zhao Lin, Song Chen waved and smiled, "Has our Princess Lin finished the drawing? Let me see, how is it?"

Zhao Lin came to Song Chen confidently, handed him the paper roll, and said, "Take a look, does it meet your requirements?"

With the reference from the future, Song Chen had directly told Zhao Lin the image of the fat penguin and required it to be "cartoonish, cute, and interesting." So, Song Chen glanced at Zhao Lin, took the paper roll, and unfolded it, nodding in satisfaction.

There were two sheets of paper, both sketches. One was a full sketch of the penguin, resembling the "fat and evil penguin" that netizens later mocked. The other was divided into eight frames, each showing a different pose of the penguin, with one frame showing the penguin lying on the ground and laughing, which was the cutest and most amusing.

Qiu Lin, Xu Xiaoying, and others all laughed with interest, exclaiming, "So cute!"

"Princess Lin's drawing skills are still there!" Nodding, Song Chen reluctantly praised, "Not bad, everyone likes it!"

"Of course, I've been practicing drawing since I was a child! I'm the best in the design school!" Zhao Lin said confidently, though she felt a bit nervous because Zhang Ruoxi, who knew her well, was looking at her with a knowing smile. To avoid being exposed, she quickly changed the subject, "Hey, I forgot to ask you last time. Why did you choose a penguin for the logo? It seems a bit out of place!"

Seeing everyone looking at him, Song Chen smiled and patted the sketch paper with the back of his hand, "The penguin symbolizes the communication between the North and South Poles, implying that the internet has no boundaries!"

"Oh! That's a good meaning! Very profound!" Zhang Ruoxi looked at her boyfriend with pride, and even Xu Xiaoying, standing behind her, looked at Song Chen with tender affection.

In reality, the OICQ logo borrowed the penguin icon from Linux!

Because OICQ was not initially valued by Tencent and they didn't consider it would grow into a vast empire, they didn't pay much attention to copyright protection! By the time Tencent grew due to QQ, changing the penguin icon was no longer possible because it had become a well-known internet software. ——These details, as a proud and hardworking member of the **silk crowd, Song Chen was unaware of.

After lunch with his girlfriend Zhang Ruoxi and Zhao Lin.

In the afternoon, Song Chen withdrew 10,000 yuan in cash from the Industrial and Commercial Bank and put it in his briefcase. Looking at Xu Xiaoying waiting at the bank entrance, Song Chen said excitedly and dominantly, "No regrets from now on!"

Xu Xiaoying smiled gently and clung to Song Chen's arm, "No regrets!"

Leaning against Song Chen, Xu Xiaoying smiled faintly and said bitterly, "I just want someone to rely on! This is more important than love and bread!"

Tenderly stroking Xu Xiaoying's bangs, Song Chen leaned down and kissed her lips lightly.

Xu Xiaoying closed her beautiful eyes and smiled shyly.

"Let's go! To the hospital!"
