Game within game: chess player

This question immediately made the man opposite him start talking. The man put down his half-eaten noodle bowl and chopsticks, took out the information in his bag and started talking to Ye Fang. The posture was as if he had not been able to find anyone to talk to this day, and Ye Fang already regretted asking this question.

But at this time, there was no way to stop him from pouring out an infectious conversation. Ye Fang went from boredom, confusion, and wonder at the beginning to admiration at the end, listening to the man opposite him talking about e-commerce, Internet, and what the future will bring. The emergence of online transactions and a series of names made Ye Fang's head feel like it was going to explode.

But his intuition seemed to tell Ye Fang that the theories described by the man in front of him seemed out of reach, but if he thought about it carefully, the future would really be like what he described. An hour passed quickly. During these two hours, Ye Fang felt that he seemed to have been brainwashed. If it weren't for the last trace of reason still controlling his behavior, he would have followed the man in front of him to sell some e-commerce in the Chinese Yellow Pages. .

"Brother, what do you do?" the man opposite asked.

"Don't be afraid if I tell you." Ye Fang said deliberately.

"Can you still be a killer?"

"Although I'm not a killer, I just got out of prison today less than a week ago." After Ye Fang said this, he obviously felt that the entire noodle shop's voice suddenly disappeared. It took a long time for someone to start speaking again, but the voice was obviously low. octave.

In the noodle shop, people were tracing Ye Fang's table from time to time, and even the noodle shop owner glanced at Ye Fang from the corner of his eye.

Ye Fang could feel the strange eyes behind him and laughed at himself, "What did you see in their eyes?"

The man opposite was stunned for a moment, and then he said nonchalantly, "There is always such a side to human nature. For you, being released from prison is both the end and the beginning. The key lies in how you look at it in your heart. There is a Buddha in your heart, and what you see is the Buddha. Demons, of course everything you see is demons. It’s human nature!”

"What a human being!" Ye Fang slapped the table, which immediately startled the diners in the noodle shop.

"Boss, get us two bottles of beer!" Ye Fang shouted.

The boss carefully opened the two bottles of beer on the table and left quickly.

"Come on, do it!" Ye Fang and the man opposite looked at each other and couldn't help but smile at each other, and the two started drinking.

"Brother, what are your plans for the future?" The man opposite asked after briefly understanding Ye Fang's basic situation.

"In my current situation, I guess there is no hope of finding a normal job. I don't even have a diploma now. I think I can only do some odd jobs, such as being a waiter in a restaurant." Ye Fang then deliberately asked the noodle shop owner for recruitment. Not hiring waiters.

The boss's face turned pale and he quickly waved his hand and said no, no, no.

"Look, I might not even be able to work as a waiter." Ye Fang said with a smile.

"If you do this, I'll give you an idea!"

"Brother, are you asking me to do sales with you?"

"Of course not." The man opposite said seriously, "You can open a small supermarket by yourself. Don't go to the neighborhood. It's in this old residential area. Your target sales target is the residents living here."

"No, I've seen a lot of small shops in the alleys these past few times. They don't make any money."

"It will definitely make money. Those small shops and groceries only sell tobacco, alcohol, sugar and tea, and the types are the same. But there are many things they don't have, such as fruits and vegetables. Residents have to leave this neighborhood. You can only buy it in large supermarkets outside. And you can also provide door-to-door delivery service, which is another major competitive advantage for you. You can pay water bills, electricity bills and many other services, and you can You can make money, just think about it.”

"I named this business model a supermarket community store. It is convenient and fast, and you can also deliver takeaway services."

The man's words immediately opened up Ye Fang's thoughts and gave him a bright feeling.

When the two people walked out of the noodle shop, the sky was already slightly bright.

"Thank you for the advice, brother! I'll treat you to this meal today."

"It's okay, just make a friend. If your career becomes bigger in the future, remember to advertise on my website!"

Ye Fang and the man looked at each other and couldn't help laughing happily.

"Let me formally meet you, my name is Ye Fang!"

"Hello, I..." Just as the man was about to introduce himself, he heard the cell phone ringing in his bag. The man quickly picked it up. There seemed to be something important on the phone. As he walked away, the man pointed towards Ye Fang. Pointing to his cell phone and mouthing, "I'm leaving now, I'll see you another day, I'm still here!"

Ye Fang smiled and nodded, waving to the man as a farewell.

Ye Fang did not expect that it would be many years later when he would say goodbye and see the man opposite him, not in person but on TV and newspapers. But at that time, this man and his company were already well-known. His company had a market value of hundreds of billions and was famous at home and abroad. It truly created an Internet era, and hundreds of millions of people changed their trading habits because of him and his company.

It’s just that no one knew anyone at that time.
