"These are the materials needed to advance to the third level." The handsome leather-covered man crumpled the letter into a ball with both hands and threw it away from the camera. "These are the little tests that the teacher has left for you. I hope you can understand. The teacher has good intentions."
Land from:"???"
What a small test, a small test of five million?
I can't understand!
"No way, right?" The man in the leather jacket seemed to have predicted Lu Li's thoughts again. He put his hands forward and thrust his outrageously handsome face in front of the camera, getting angry and said, "There's no way anyone would really be attracted by this piece of information. Don’t worry. Let me see who this person is?”
"Oh~" The man in the leather jacket took two steps back and nodded thoughtfully, "So you are my stupid disciple!"
"Tsk."
When faced with ridicule, Lu Li acted quite calmly and only uttered one syllable.
After all, I have been here for more than ten years, so I have long been immune to such ridicule.
"You should worry about it yourself anyway, I can't help you." The man in the leather jacket stood back to his original position and continued: "Please remember the circuit for upgrading the star card..."
The man in the leather jacket announced the numbers expressionlessly, and told Lu Li the circuit to upgrade [Morning Star] in code words.
"I'll wait until the third level to tell you the next information. The second level doesn't even have the ability to protect itself. It's too weak." The handsome leather-covered man spread his hands and looked helpless, "Also, what about the third level? , [Morning Star] will be a little different.”
Before Lu Li could react, the light curtain flashed and disappeared.
The video ended abruptly.
"What a pie-in-the-sky rhetoric." Lu Li leaned back tactically.
Lu Li has been coveting the heaven-and-earth magical power of [Ending Night] for a long time, and he doesn't know what changes will happen after [Morning Star] is upgraded to the third level.
"Third level..."
Lu Li murmured to himself, calculating the progress of his training in his mind: "According to the current progress, it's pretty fast."
Currently, the star lake in his sea of consciousness is overflowing, and Lu Li has begun to condense his star power.
If the upgraded efficiency of [Venus Star] is taken into account, Lu Li estimates that he will be able to advance to the third level in mid-December.
"Two months to reach the third level? It feels like it's much faster than Lin Miaohan."
Lu Li cursed in his heart, "Fuck you."
"That's it for today."
Lu Li stretched out, waved his hand, and used the storage card to clean up all the debris left behind. Then he took out another storage card, and sprinkled a small amount of white powder here and there on the table and top. on the floor.
These are powders of ordinary card materials. Lu Li wanted to use these to forge signs that he was making cards.
After all, I have been here for eight or nine hours, so I have to leave some traces, right?
"We're done, the next step is to gather materials and make money." Lu Li walked out.
After checking out the room card, Lu Li took out his mobile phone and opened his roommate Geng Xiaowen's profile picture after a long absence.
Half a month had passed since he handed the sound card to the little fat man.
During this period, Lu Li had been busy competing in Mario games and collecting materials for upgrading [Morning Star], so he didn't ask about the progress of the "sound card sales plan".
Now, if you are short of money, ask first.
Lu Li's personal account doesn't have as much as five million star coins.
I had heard Geng Xiaowen talk about making money from technology before, but I didn’t know how much revenue a sound card could bring.
"How's the sound card going?"
Lu Li typed very fast.
Soon, the status on Geng Xiaowen's side changed to "Inputting", but Lu Li stared at the screen for a long time without receiving any news.
"Is it because the signal in the card-making room is too poor?" Lu Li muttered.
The walls of the card-making room are made of special materials, which may block the star network signal.
"that."
Geng Xiaowen's message finally popped up, and then it immediately changed to "
Entering".
"What happened?" Lu Li felt vaguely that something was wrong. He quickly walked up the vertical elevator and typed a reply.
"Yes... I'm sorry, Brother Lu."
It can be seen from the text that the little fat man is very frustrated.
He usually calls "Brother Lu" - they call each other brothers, regardless of their size.
But now he has become "Brother Lu", and Geng Xiaowen is willing to be a little shorter, fearing that he has done something to make him feel guilty.
"It seems that there is indeed something wrong with the sales of the sound card." Lu Li murmured to himself, and asked on his cell phone: "Go back to school?"
"Okay, let's talk face to face." Geng Xiaowen said nothing.
Talking about many things in person is more efficient.
...
By the time Lu Li returned to the male C603 dormitory, Geng Xiaowen had already arrived. At this time, he was frowning and his hands were moving quickly on the keyboard, as if he was communicating with others.
"coming?"
Hearing the sound of the door opening, the little fat man immediately stopped what he was doing.
"Tell me about it." Lu Li was very calm.
"The sound card was snatched away." Geng Xiaowen was a little excited and almost said this through gritted teeth.
"By whom?"
"Director Qi from the head office."
"Can I still get it back?" Lu Li immediately asked the key question.
From the brief exchange, he was able to reason out the whole thing very closely.
For the sound card product, he signed a cooperation agreement with Geng Xiaowen, and the contract was signed with a company under Geng Xiaowen's name - one of the subsidiaries of the Geng Jia Jin Min Company Group.
According to the internal regulations of their group, directors have the right to intervene in the business of subsidiaries. Even if the director uses coercion and inducement in private, he can achieve his goal.
Therefore, it is estimated that Director Qi was greedy when he saw the sound card, so he used some means to "get" it.
"It probably won't work." The little fat man shook his head. "They secretly registered the patent. The sound card has been protected by the Star Card Association. This is also my fault. I blame me for not reminding you to register the patent first..."
"If you want to do big business now, how can you register a patent..." Lu Li shook his head gently.
Generally speaking, after applying for a patent, the Star Card Association can protect your property rights for free, but when the revenue of the Star Card reaches "tens of millions", the association will collect a certain percentage of "protection fees."
Therefore, for profitable technology products such as sound cards and graphics cards, it is almost inevitable that the revenue will exceed 10 million.
For such products, most companies will choose not to register a patent in order to save this cost, and instead trust their own company's confidentiality level.
"I didn't expect that Qi Dongqiang would use such despicable means to bribe the people on my side! Then the sound card design was leaked." Geng Xiaowen clenched his fists tightly. It's angry.
"Together we have a strong winter force?" Lu Li was slightly startled by the name.
Geng Xiaowen: "What?"
"Oh, it's nothing, go on."
