Reborn: I'll Never Fail My Childhood Sweetheart Again Chapter 428 - 164: Trend Followers in the New Era (4)

In late August 2001, Microhard officially released Windows XP, and the retail version hit the shelves in late October of the sa year. It’s not even been a month since.

This system, which had been phased out in the previous world, is currently sothing completely new. If you weren’t a computer enthusiast, many people hadn’t even heard of it.

Su Zelin has always liked trying new things. In his past life, his phone frequently received ssages like "New tea has arrived at our store, we welco you to co and taste it." Naturally, he wanted to be the first to use this new system too.

He placed a CD into the drive and, after completing the necessary manual steps, took a set of clean clothes into the bathroom.

After taking a shower and coming out, the installation was nearly complete. Thanks to the high-end machine he bought from Brother Xiao Yang’s store, the speed was quite fast.

After a simple setup, he started to experience it hands-on.

Compared to Windows 98, XP is much more stable and easier to use, even if it’s just the first official version. The improvent over the old system is quite evident.

This thing needs to be mass-produced quickly, installed in the digital store, allowing custors to experience it soon too.

Although it will take so ti for XP to beco widespread, there will always be enthusiasts like who want to get it quickly. By then, we can sell quite a few CDs.

Don’t underestimate those few dollars for small items; the profit from pirated CDs is really high. Especially when you burn them yourself, the cost is pathetically low. And many enthusiasts are not satisfied with just buying one. As long as there is a new version, many will buy again.

After installing so commonly used software, it was almost seven o’clock.

Su Zelin then shut down the computer and leisurely left the dormitory.

He went to the digital store, first headed to the technical departnt to find a male employee, and shoved a CD into his hand.

"Gray Wolf, when you have ti, install this on the twenty machines in the store, especially on the low-end ones, you can install more!"

"Gray Wolf" is the head of the technical departnt at the store.

Of course, this is just a nickna.

All employees at the digital store have their own nicknas, which sound more intimate and help build team relationships.

Liuu Wanyin’s nickna is Xiaoliu, and to be honest, it was Su Zelin who ca up with it for her.

As for soone like Su Zelin, a leader, he is usually addressed by his title or as the boss.

Seeing the CD, Gray Wolf’s eyes lit up, and he exclaid with delight, "XP!"

This new system from Microhard has just been released, and it’s not easy to get in the country. As the head of the technical departnt and a computer enthusiast, he had long wanted to try it.

"Boss, this system is good. Although it has just been released, it’s said to be highly praised abroad. It’s not only stable and smooth, but also has low hardware requirents!"

Gray Wolf said excitedly.

"Haha, I know!" Su Zelin laughed, "So we need to install more on low-end machines. The comparison effect will be more obvious, and we must burn more of this CD to sell!"

"Okay, if there’s nothing else, I’ll install it now!"

Gray Wolf couldn’t wait any longer.

"Alright, go ahead!"

Su Zelin waved his hand, and Gray Wolf ran off excitedly.

The staff eting to announce the new manager wasn’t urgent; there were custors in the store, so it would have to wait until after closing ti.

The easygoing man went straight to the front desk, found Liuu Wanyin, and smiled, "Xiaoliu, please go to the manager’s office first and make so tea. President Yang and President Kang will co over later!"

"Yes, boss!"

Liuu Wanyin obediently followed Su Zelin into the office.

The interior was simple and elegant, with the main furniture being a set of wooden sofas and a tea table.

Su Zelin liked drinking Kung Fu tea and wouldn’t discuss serious matters without it.

Lately, he had been training Liuu Wanyin to handle this task.

After all, as the big boss of New Era, he couldn’t always be the one making the Kung Fu tea. So, this job fell to the capable young deputy.

Liuu Wanyin was soon going to be the store manager, the third in command at the branch in the finance school. If she developed well, she might even follow him after graduation and beco a trusted aide. So, she had to learn Kung Fu tea and master more social skills, which would always be useful. Moreover, this habit could cultivate one’s character and enhance confidence and personal charisma.

Of course, more importantly, after teaching this apprentice, he wouldn’t have to go through the hassle of making tea himself.

"Rember, the boiling water for the tea must be at the second boil. Steep for about fifteen seconds on the first brew; timing is crucial to get the most aromatic and perfect tea!"

"When pouring the tea, keep your hand steady, bring the spout close to the teacup, circle three tis, then pour it. Don’t let the tea splash out!"

"Stand upright, keep your chest out, relax your mind, and move gracefully. Imagine you are an ancient noblewoman; making Kung Fu tea is a very elegant and enjoyable thing."

"..."

Liuu Wanyin carefully brewed the tea. Even though she didn’t understand why Su Zelin wanted her to learn this, Xiaoliu thought that whatever the boss asks must have a reason.

So, whatever the easygoing man asked her to do, she was willing to do.

After a while, a cup of tea was ready. Liuu Wanyin handed it over with both hands, "Boss, please have so tea!"

Su Zelin took it, sipped it, let the tea roll in his mouth to savor its aroma, swallowed, and then praised, "Not bad, not bad, Xiaoliu, your Kung Fu tea is getting there!"

"It’s mainly because the teacher is generous in teaching; a great teacher produces great students!"

Liuu Wanyin laughed behind her hand.

"Hey, Xiaoliu, your flattery skill is improving day by day. I think you’re bound to beco a master flatterer sooner or later!"
