After the deposit, Sun Hao and Song Chunfeng went to the renovation company again in the afternoon.
Sun Hao believed that whether or not an internet cafe's business was flourishing depended on the equipment and service, as well as the renovation. The quality of an internet cafe's environment completely determined the mood of a customer. No one wanted to stay in a dark, damp room with peeling walls, so the renovation was very knowledgeable.
First of all, the ceiling of a computer room must be dust-proof and painted with dust-proof paint to ensure that the foundation of the ceiling was dust-free.
Should he install heat-resistant cotton on the ceiling to prevent moisture and heat? At the same time, it forms a complete shielding system with the shielding net of the computer room, which has the function of anti-static and anti-interference. The wire slot on the upper part of the ceiling and the ceiling grid must be grounded.
Other than the ceiling, Sun Hao thought that the most important thing was the floor. Since Sun Hao majored in computer science in university and middle school, he had more computer classes. However, Sun Hao realized that the floor of the computer room was different from the floor of an ordinary classroom. Later, he went online to check the information and Sun Hao realized that the floor used in the computer room was a movable floor. The movable floor was essential in the computer room.
There were two main purposes for laying the movable floor in the machine room: First, a hidden space was formed under the movable floor, where power cables, wire grooves, integrated circuits, fire pipes, and some electrical facilities (sockets, socket boxes, etc.) could be laid under the floor. Secondly, because the movable floor was laid, an air conditioning static pressure box could be formed under the movable floor. In addition, the anti-static function of the movable floor also guaranteed the safe operation of computers and network equipment.
There were many types of movable floors. According to the different base materials and materials, it can be divided into: aluminum alloy, all steel, composite wood particle board, etc. The surface of the floor was pasted with an anti-static layer. The different choices of movable floors directly affected the grade of the computer room. After using different quality floors, the effect of the computer room was very different.
Other than these, there were also requirements for the walls, anti-static, and partition, which were indispensable materials for opening an Internet cafe. Although these things were more responsible and the cost was not low, Sun Hao was not like his Internet cafe that had caught fire in his previous life. Therefore, Sun Hao and Song Chunfeng went to a very large renovation company.
－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－
At night, Sun Hao, who must have been busy the whole day, finally dragged his tired body back home. He had done a lot of things today. After finishing the renovation of the house and the machines, the rest was to look for Liu Zhongda's approval of the documents. After that, he would publicize it and find a few network administrators and cashiers to start the business.
After dinner, Sun Hao returned to his room. Although the hardware had been solved, the software was also very important. The Internet wasn't very popular in China now, and it would take two or three years for it to be popularized. Therefore, most people weren't familiar with operating computers and surfing the Internet. Therefore, if the Internet cafe didn't have a powerful resource library, it wouldn't attract customers.
As early as February of this year, the company had already produced and launched the largest instant messaging software in the country," QQ," so this software had to be installed.
Sun Hao remembered that he first went online in the second year of junior high school. At that time, QQ had just been released for more than a year. Sun Hao's classmates, including Lu Yifei, loved to use QQ to chat. Sometimes, they would chat on QQ for hours when they went to the Internet cafe. Therefore, this was a necessity for Sun Hao's Internet cafe.
Other than chatting, entertainment was also a must. First of all, there were many female customers online. One of them could not be ignored, so he had to get some film resources. Fortunately, there were some movie websites now that could be put on the machine.
The most important thing was the game. In 1999, the most popular standalone games were Final Fantasy and Tomb Raider. Although the latest versions of these two games were relatively high-end for computers, Sun Hao had the foresight to buy equipment that could carry these games well. Therefore, with the addition of games like Starcraft, Red Alert, and Legend of the Three Kingdoms, it was enough to handle them for a while.
In terms of online games, Sun Hao could only think of 1999 online games such as " The Age of Mud " and " Founding Era of the Internet." In a few months, he would think of " Stone Age " and " Millennium ".
Music was Sun Hao's forte. Although there were no internet players at this time, and the songs could only be saved on the hard disk, there were still many popular songs nowadays, so it was very convenient to classify them.
Sun Hao planned to put all the songs he had recorded in the past into this music. Although it might not be of much use, it would definitely have some effect.
At this time, the door of the room was opened. Sun Hao's mother, Huang Shufen, saw that the light in Sun Hao's room was still on and was about to go in to take a look. When she came in and saw that her son was still awake, she sat by Sun Hao's bed.
"Ah Hao, Mom wants to talk to you.”Huang Shufen saw that her son was still young, but she could not understand him anymore. At such a young age, he did not come back with a lot of equipment for adults and even went to participate in some band competition. In the past few days, the form teacher, Teacher Li Jing, called to say that Sun Hao had been taking leave for the past two days. Huang Shufen felt that her son's personality was too different from before.
"Mom, if you have anything to say, just say it.”Although he didn't know what his mother was thinking, Sun Hao had already guessed it. Think about it, whose son would be running around every day at the age of 13, doing things that even adults didn't understand.
"Mom wants to ask you, what kind of person do you want to be in the future?”Although her son had changed a little, Huang Shufen still asked Sun Hao lovingly. After all, Sun Hao was also developing in a good way and did not learn to be bad.
………………
After more than an hour of conversation with Huang Shufen, Sun Hao didn't tell his mother about his rebirth and the Internet cafe. He told his mother about the music and band. Although Huang Shufen was surprised that Sun Hao had such a high achievement in music at such a young age, she was also proud of her son.
During class the next day, Liu Zhongda, who was sitting in front of Sun Hao, turned his head and said to Sun Hao,""I told my dad yesterday that it will definitely be settled, but my dad wants to see Song Chunfeng.”
After Liu Zhongda came home from school yesterday, he told his father about Sun Hao's request. Liu Zhongda's father was very supportive of his son's request, but at the same time, he wanted to meet Song Chunfeng because Liu Zhongda's father didn't want his son to come into contact with bad people and be used.
Sun Hao had already thought of this. Liu Zhongda was relatively honest, but since his father was able to become the deputy chief shi, he must be very shrewd. Therefore, when Sun Hao left the house in the morning, he had already instructed Song Chunfeng to go to the mall to buy some cigarettes, wine, tea, red packets, and other things. He was ready to send them to Liu Zhongda's house at any time.
Now that everything was almost ready, the only thing left was the promotion. Before the opening, it was necessary to give out some flyers. There was also the issue of printing VIP cards. As VIP were not as popular as they were in the past few years, no matter what industry or even the hairdresser, there was a VIP system that gave away the top-up money. Therefore, VIPs were a new thing in the Internet cafe industry at this time.
There were two ways to make a VIP card. One was to print a batch of VIP cards with magnetic strips or cores, and then buy a card reader. The customer could deposit money into the card, and every time the card was swiped, the amount of money would be deducted. However, the cost of the card reader had to be taken into account. A card reader was not cheap.
There was also the VIP software method. One could create a set of membership management software and also print a batch of cards, but there was no need to bring magnetic strips or other things. Just attach it to the card and use the membership number on it to surf the Internet. Sun Hao remembered that the previous "Vientiane" Internet Cafe management software was like this, but he didn't know when it would come out.
Therefore, Sun Hao planned to use software to do it. This way, not only could he save costs, but it would also be easier to manage. Thinking of this, Sun Hao couldn't even go to class anymore. He asked for leave from the teacher and left the school.
He called Song Chunfeng and told him to bring a gift to Liu Zhongda's house tonight. Then, Sun Hao went to the printing factory first. Sun Hao wrote a flyer and planned to print tens of thousands of copies. He would hire a few people to distribute them on the streets. Then, he printed a batch of VIP cards. He didn't need many, so Sun Hao planned to print 1,000 copies first. If it wasn't enough, he could print more.
The two items added up to a total of only 1,000 yuan, but the effect was not just a matter of money. Otherwise, why would there always be advertisements on TV that took a long time to introduce a product, such as " Eight Stars Eight Pieces "," XX Rolls Royce ", and the legendary " President Hou "?
After settling the publicity, Sun Hao was finally relieved. Now, he just needed to find a better time to open the store after the renovation. Sun Hao had been really busy these past few days. Just as he was about to go home and rest, Sun Hao suddenly realized that a stage had been set up not far away. Many people were gathered around it, and he didn't know what they were doing.
As he walked closer, Sun Hao couldn't help but laugh. He saw the fat boss of Prince Music Store running around with a big belly. Hearing the introduction of the staff on the stage, it seemed to be a competition. Sun Hao couldn't help but wonder. Didn't the band competition just end? Why was there another competition?
Sun Hao walked up to the fat boss and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't bother me. Can't you see that I'm busy?”The fat boss didn't even turn his head and said to Sun Hao. After a while, he turned his head and saw that it was Sun Hao. He quickly smiled and said,"Ah, isn't that our celebrity? How is it? The competition is over, right? I heard that you guys got a special lecture. It seems that I really didn't misjudge you. Why, don't you have class today?”
It seemed that the industry insiders were well-informed. They actually knew that Sun Hao and the others had won the award.
"You've been on leave for the past two days. You're so busy." Sun Hao asked curiously when he saw the fat boss sweating.
"This is the annual guitar competition in our city. Don't you know? It's already the third time." The fat boss said to Sun Hao while wiping the sweat off his head.
"Oh, it's this. Okay, okay, then you continue with your work.”Sun Hao thought for a moment. There was indeed such a competition. In his previous life, Sun Hao had also participated in it, but he was only in the classical guitar group. At that time, it was almost the tenth year. He had even won second place and obtained a violin.
"Hey, hey, don't go." The fat boss saw that Sun Hao was about to leave and quickly pulled Sun Hao back.
"What's wrong?" Sun Hao looked at the fat boss in confusion. He didn't know why the fat boss pulled him back.
"Aren't you good at playing the guitar? Just do me a favor and play a song later. As you can see, there aren't many contestants participating in the competition.”Just when the fat boss saw Sun Hao leaving, he suddenly remembered that the boy in front of him was a guitar expert. There was no need to mention the electric guitar. From this competition, it could be seen that the fat boss had also seen Sun Hao play the classical guitar. The first time Sun Hao came to buy a violin, he had played " Big Horta," which was a level 10 song. From this, it could be seen that Sun Hao's attainments in classical guitar were very high.
Hearing the fat boss's words, Sun Hao looked up at the judges 'seats on the side of the stage. Sure enough, it was the Magnetic Field band that Sun Hao and the others had played in the band selection competition in City H. Sun Hao still remembered that he had promised to practice with them, but he had not had the time to meet them yet. This made Sun Hao feel very embarrassed.
At this moment, the members of Magnetic Field also saw Sun Hao, so they immediately walked over to Sun Hao.
"Isn't this our champion? Come on, come on. I was just about to tell Boss Huang when we would go to their place to meet you and ask you to give us some pointers. Now, you're here yourself. Otherwise, I really thought that you'd ignore us, the band that's still struggling in City H, after becoming famous.”Magnetic Field's lead singer, Wang Jinhua, came in front of Sun Hao and pulled him to the judges 'seats as he teased.
Sun Hao had no choice but to follow Wang Jinhua to the judges 'seats with a bitter smile.
