Chapter 1175 Internet Cafes Don't Make Money!

"The data of this wealth is getting more and more accurate!" Boss Jia muttered when he saw the latest release of the Fortune 500 in the world.

Although there is still a considerable gap between 25 billion and 28.4 billion US dollars in actual turnover, it is already amazing to find such a number without Daqian releasing any financial report data, and it can even make Boss Jia appreciate this reporter.

But at this time China was in full bloom again.

The 120th-ranked company in the world is another historic breakthrough for China. Financial media across the country are reporting this news wildly. Even the News Broadcast specially gave Boss Jia one minute to express that this is a new breakthrough for China. China will definitely be better in the future, and then reiterates its support for reform.

Anyway, Boss Jia is now the most famous entrepreneur in the country, and he is one of the few. If the Internet was not developed enough these days, Boss Jia's fame would definitely surpass the later generations of Ma Yun and Mahua Teng.

Speaking of the Internet, Boss Jia remembered his Internet cafe.

It has been more than half a month since the Internet cafe opened, but unlike the imagined situation where the bustling and crowded people were everywhere, Daqian Internet cafe has been operating in a bleak half month, and its business is quite bad. The number of people who open cards every day will not exceed 20 people.

And most of them are looking for something new, driving for the lowest half an hour, experiencing what it means to surf the Internet, and people will leave directly.

After all, the Internet cafes are not cheap these days, and one computer costs 1 yuan per hour.

This fee seems very cheap in the future, but in 1997, it was absolutely high.

In short, in half a month, the total turnover of Daqian Internet Cafe has been added up to less than 200 yuan. Not to mention the cost, even the salary of a network administrator is not enough, which is extremely miserable!

This made Boss Jia a little confused. Before 2010, Internet cafes were a business that was stable and profitable. No matter how many Internet cafes opened in a city, it could always be filled with them. Sometimes I couldn’t even find the machine. Why didn’t anyone go online here?

However, after a field investigation, Boss Jia understood the reason.

It’s very simple. Internet cafes in this era are indeed not attractive enough.

Boss Jia walked around the Internet cafe and didn't even see a child playing games. A few people who were surfing the Internet were still holding English dictionary in one hand and searching for various information on the external network.

Most of the customers who surf the Internet in Boss Jia’s Internet cafe come to learn, which is simply the most incredible thing in the world.

Fortunately, Blizzard saved our boss Jia at the critical moment.

Because three days later, on April 12, 1997, Blizzard announced that "Diablo OL" will be publicly beta in 27 countries around the world, and there is naturally a quota for China among these 27 countries.

Daqian Games has prepared the agency preparations for "Diablo OL" early, and Daqian Internet Cafe is naturally the first Internet cafe in the country to be able to play "Diablo OL"!

————————————————

Zhang Zhahui is a famous stubborn leader in Yuzhang City. Because he doesn't like to study, he dropped out of school after finishing junior high school. However, because his father works in Daqian and is an old employee of Daqian Group in 1991, the Zhang family became one of the earliest 10,000 yuan households in Yuzhang.

Now, the Zhang family is said to have a deposit of more than 100,000 yuan, which are all the hard-earned money that Zhang Zhahui’s father saved after he went to work.

However, Zhang Zhahui himself didn't know whether the Zhang family had such a huge amount of funds. Anyway, he knew that no matter how much he was going outside, he would never let the family eat less meat.

So Zhang Zhahui was still a little grateful to Daqian in his heart.

Every time I pass by Daqian Building, I can't help but look up at Daqian Building, with a sense of yearning in my eyes!

In fact, Zhang Zhahui also has the dream of joining Daqian Group, but Zhang Zhahui also knows that Daqian Group is just a guy who has not even graduated from junior high school.

According to his father, the threshold for joining Daqian Group has reached a very high level.

Because Daqian Group now has basically no direct production departments except for some old production lines, these production units have been transferred to the Daqian Group Army.

So now Daxian Group needs high-quality talents, at least as long as it starts with a bachelor's degree, and at least one student is required. In other words, there are no names such as 985 and 211 these days, otherwise this requirement is also indispensable.

As for the son to inherit his father's business, it is impossible. Daqian is not a state-owned enterprise, so he will give priority to recruiting children from his own unit.

In fact, if Zhang Zhahui's father had not been Daqian's old employee, Zhang Zhahui's father had been streamlined and had been dismissed. After all, Zhang Zhahui's father only had a junior high school education and could no longer keep up with Daqian's development speed.

Moreover, I have been limited to the production line for the rest of my life. At most, I just think that the line is long, and it is impossible to go further.

Whenever he thinks of this, Lao Zhang wants to beat Zhang Zhahui up. It’s a pity that this son is his biological son and he can’t bear to leave him.

When I pass by Daqian Building every day, I would take a habit of taking a look and then leave directly.

But today Zhang Zhahui looked at it and found that something was wrong. That was, a huge colored large-scale printed poster was hung outside the glass curtain wall of the Daqian Building.

There are five characters holding different weapons and making combat postures on it. One of them is wearing leather armor and reveals delicate and flawless archer girls with snow-white thighs and waist. It makes Zhang Zhahui almost fight.

"Welcome to the global public beta of Diablo OL. Players register and apply for cards with their ID cards and enjoy the first hour of free, and then charge 100 and get 20 yuan for super benefits!"

"Diablo? Isn't this a particularly popular computer game?" Zhang Zhahui was instantly moved. As a social idle person, Zhang Zhahui's interests and hobbies are basically all in the same word.

Zhang Zhahui naturally heard of the name of computer games. In the previous WCG, Zhang Zhahui also got a ticket to watch the competition through his father's relationship.

So Zhang Zhahui has long been itchy about computer games, but Zhang Zhahui's father would never buy an expensive computer no matter what. And Yuzhang has no Internet cafe, so Zhang Zhahui could only sigh.
