V1.Chapter 1376

Xu Jing and Ma Hai are not beggars.

Although they came to ask Xia Xiaolan to "beg for money", there is a difference between pulling investment and begging.

Begging is taking other people's things for nothing, while investment means return.

The two had Xia Xiaolan's contact information and asked for the address of Wen's family. They came by car from New York, but they were embarrassed to disturb them, so they squatted outside and waited.

But Xia Xiaolan drove back today. Professor Wen's house looks really good. Xu Jing and Ma Hai are in great spirits - Xia Xiaolan is really rich. As long as they can persuade each other to invest, the project will be saved!

The two were embarrassed. Xia Xiaolan thought:

"Come on, find a place to sit down and talk slowly."

There's a cafe in Ithaca. It's at least a place to talk.

The new car Xia Xiaolan mentioned today is manned for the first time, that is, Xu Jing and Ma Hai. Du Zhaohui has a lot of opinions on this. He still had to find out the origin of the two people. Xia Xiaolan didn't ask him to join him. He still had the cheek to follow up.

Xia Xiaolan didn't stop it. There are opportunities to make money everywhere. Xu Jing and Ma Hai have taken the initiative to come to the door. She hasn't analyzed whether it's reliable. She's not afraid to be intercepted by Du Zhaohui... Maybe Xu Jing and Ma Hai's so-called "investment" is far beyond Xia Xiaolan's budget. Xia Xiaolan won't mind if Du Zhaohui wants to go on his own.

At the cafe, the outgoing Ma Hai broke the embarrassment:

"Classmate Xia, at the party that day, you said that Lao Xu could talk to you when he was sober. Does that count?"

Xia Xiaolan was speechless. "Elder martial brother Mahai, if it doesn't count, what am I doing in the cafe with you? Come on, what are you and senior brother Xu Jing doing, what step you have taken, and how much investment you need now? I need a comprehensive understanding to decide the next step. "

The next step is whether to invest or not, how much to invest.

They couldn't figure out who Du Zhaohui was, but the man didn't say a word. Looking at his clothes, he didn't look like he was short of money. Some people said that the rich man's friend was still rich. Ma Hai was eager for another potential investor to listen to him - in case he didn't cheat... Bah bah, bah, wrong. In case he didn't pull Xia Xiaolan to invest, the young man's interest was the same.

"Well, have you ever heard of something called an electronic dictionary? You can find its meaning by inputting a word and switch freely between the two languages. You can regard it as a microcomputer... "

Xia Xiaolan studies architecture. Ma Hai is afraid that she can't understand. She wants to explain it as simple as possible.

Electronic dictionary!

Of course Xia Xiaolan knows this.

The first time she saw a real object in her last life was about 94 years. Her classmates used it to learn English. At that time, it was hundreds of yuan each. Xia Xiaolan, a person who worked and saved her tuition, naturally could not afford it.

Slowly, more and more students use electronic dictionaries around. She doesn't know whether it will help improve her English performance. Several brands such as Wenqu star, Noah boat and Bubu Gao are making electronic dictionaries. It's good for students to earn money!

Xia Xiaolan became interested and sat up straight:

"You two made an electronic dictionary?!"

She has some doubts.

This thing should not have been invented by the Chinese people, including pagers, cell phones and mobile phones. These electronic and communication products were transmitted to China from abroad. In the first few years, pagers could only display phone numbers. Later, Chinese companies came up with Chinese character display. This thing can see other people's incoming calls and messages, and can also see what weather push, stock information and so on.

Xia Xiaolan had doubts in her voice, and Xu unexpectedly blushed:

"No, we didn't invent it, but Ma Hai and I think it has something to do and want to make it an English Chinese version..."

Xia Xiaolan couldn't help looking at Xu Jing.

"Elder martial brother Xu, you have a lot of ideas. Tell me in detail. Can you bypass other people's patents when you and elder martial brother ma make this thing?"

It's called independent research and development after being inspired.

You can't bypass it. It's called Shanzhai.

However, many domestic technologies come from this way. If there were no Shanzhai, where would Chinese manufacturing start? It is the survival way of many brands to lay the foundation of Shanzhai first and then independent research and development.

Xia Xiaolan actually quite understood. Xu Jing and Ma Hai were surprised.

Xu Jing spoke more carefully:

"If you want to say how powerful this thing is, it's not. Let me briefly tell you the composition of this electronic dictionary system. It needs three parts: one is to store and record the contents and information of the dictionary; The second is the operation equipment, which regards the stored information as a text, and needs a machine to read the text, right? This is why Ma Hai said that it is a microcomputer, and software is required for browsing and retrieval. Operation equipment generally includes reading equipment, output equipment and input equipment; The third is to control the outside... "

Xia Xiaolan didn't interrupt Xu Jing.

These things were told to laymen in 1986. Most laymen will be confused, such as Du Zhaohui.

In 1986, many people didn't understand computers. At present, many people's understanding of personal computers is expensive typewriters and game consoles!

In the future, electronic and digital products are becoming more and more popular, and they are updating and bringing forth the new every year. Non computer professionals can tell a few things about these common sense.

So Du Zhaohui didn't understand, but Xia Xiaolan did.

When Xu Jing finished, Xia Xiaolan asked him:

"You want to make the English Chinese version of the electronic dictionary, and you are dissatisfied with the retrieval speed and storage space of the existing version. These things all want to be upgraded. Of course, you can't just break the contract. These things are to be produced by a company with technology, and your biggest problem is that you don't have money?"

"But we have compiled better running software -"

Ma Hai couldn't help defending.

Xia Xiaolan smiled, "software? If the hardware can't keep up, the software is useless, not to mention whether the software is good or not, I haven't seen it with my own eyes. "

Xu Jing and Ma Hai went the right way.

There will really be a market for English Chinese two-way electronic dictionaries. Who says that Chinese people must learn English for many years?

It's always easy to earn students' money. Chinese parents have never spared their money investment in education. Although Xia Xiaolan doesn't think electronic dictionaries are useful, it's better than selling game consoles in the name of learning machines!

If Xu Jing and Ma Hai told her today that they had found Nintendo's game console and could copy it for her to get the "little bully" game console that would dominate primary and secondary school students in China for many years, Xia Xiaolan might turn around and leave - now she feels she can save it, but Ma Hai and Xu don't know much about her and think what Xia Xiaolan said means rejection, Xu hurriedly pushed the information he had brought to Xia Xiaolan:

"Classmate Xia, can't you understand it again? You can also follow us to New York. There are samples assembled by ourselves in our residence! "
