The QQ friend-adding feature required entering an account number. While so internet surfers did randomly search and add people, Yi Feng didn’t believe soone could so coincidentally stumble upon his newly created QQ account.
“Let’s see what the IP address is first!”
Yi Feng chuckled and opened the firewall software.
Early versions of QQ would record local information, and firewall software could log both sender and receiver information, including the sender’s IP address.
This address was the chat partner’s real IP address, which in earlier versions was neither masked nor spoofed.
Yi Feng scrolled through the firewall logs to the earliest conversation records, where he found an IP address.
He was startled when he saw it.
Wasn’t this Gu Muxi’s ho IP address?
He had seen this IP address that afternoon while setting up her computer network.
That ant…
This “Tsinghua Nianhua” netizen was actually Gu Muxi?!
A gleam flashed in Yi Feng’s eyes. No wonder, no wonder there was a mysterious friend request out of nowhere.
Gu Muxi must have registered another QQ account, pretending to be a stranger to prank him.
Having figured this out, Yi Feng decided to go with the flow and see who could outwit whom.
Hehe, little does she know, who is she playing with?
Yi Feng imdiately typed and sent a ssage.
“Oh, hello there, netizen. I thought you were so woman.”
At this mont, Gu Muxi, across the window, received the ssage.
She was taken aback. Which woman was stinky Yi Feng talking about?
She had to ask for clarity.
Tsinghua Nianhua: “What woman? Who did you think I was?”
Feng: “Nothing, just a girl next door. You wouldn’t know her.”
Tsinghua Nianhua: “You seem quite familiar with her?”
Feng: “Familiar, of course, I’m familiar. I know every hair on her body.”
Gu Muxi’s cheeks flushed as she glared at Yi Feng’s QQ.
You know nothing!
How shaless!
Tsinghua Nianhua: “Hehe, really…”
Feng: “By the way, who are you, and where do you live?”
Gu Muxi hadn’t thought about her disguise information and hurriedly made sothing up.
“I’m from a place in the northeast, you wouldn’t know it.”
Yi Feng chuckled, still trying to pull the northeast card on ?
Feng: “Is that so? Say sothing in northeastern dialect; I love northeastern dialect, it’s so funny.”
Gu Muxi didn’t know any northeastern dialect. She scratched her head, unsure how to respond.
She couldn’t co up with anything and just typed: “Why speak northeastern dialect when surfing the internet? I don’t want to say!”
Yi Feng laughed lightly, “Well then, it’s fate that we t across thousands of miles. We should communicate more and understand each other better.”
Gu Muxi humd.
Tsinghua Nianhua: “How do you want to understand each other better?”
Feng: “Any way you like, I don’t mind.”
“It’s that kind of understanding, knowing your depths and you understanding my lengths.”
Gu Muxi raised her eyebrows.
Alright, stinky Yi Feng, daring to flirt online!
And so slick with words!
Humph, I’ll get back at you slowly!
Tsinghua Nianhua: “Hehe, okay, but I’m busy right now, let’s talk another day!”
A while later, Yi Feng saw that her QQ status turned gray; she had gone offline.
Hehe, Gu Muxi, playing a stranger online with ? Then I’ll just have to play along!
He logged off QQ and continued tinkering with his computer.
Though the internet was poor, it didn’t affect the machine’s local performance.
He was now setting up a C program and installing a Java environnt to facilitate future coding and software developnt.
Yi Feng planned to create an antivirus software. His computer science major included network security courses, and he had participated in the third National Internet Security Competition, where his team finished third. This deepened his understanding of network security.
Current antivirus software predominantly used broad-spectrum signature technology, an outdated thod that was inconvenient for users.
He aid to create a heuristic antivirus engine, more advanced, secure, and user-friendly.
Given the current computer configurations, the antivirus software couldn’t be large; it needed to be simple, straightforward, and efficient. It wouldn’t have many features, just enough to be useful.
Once computers beca widespread and the internet exploded, he could officially enter the cloud scanning field!
Rember, that was when a famous giant, 360, was born!
Hehe, if he started laying the groundwork in this field now, perhaps there wouldn’t be a 360 later on.
“Tap tap tap—”
Yi Feng’s fingers flew over the keyboard, coding after setting up the environnt.
…
Yi Feng spent his days diligently revising at school, fixing computers after school, and coding at night after dinner.
On weekends, he went to the shop to arrange wiring, paint walls, buy furniture, and fix a batch of broken computers.
His days were full and busy, with no ti to rest or play.
More than a month flew by in this busy schedule, and it was the last weekend before the college entrance exam.
Early on this Saturday morning, Yi Feng and Wang Tie rushed to the shop.
Standing in front of the shop’s glass door, Yi Feng smiled confidently.
He believed the shop would impress anyone who entered.
The sign above the shop was simple yet stylish, with a simple red maple leaf logo on the left and the shop’s na on the right.
“Xifeng Electronics – Computer Repair Expert.”
He chose the na Xifeng Electronics because it sounded like “Xi Feng,” marking the starting point of his and Gu Muxi’s future life together.
The na was straightforward, and the suffix made it clear to anyone who saw the sign what the shop was about.
It was a professional computer repair shop.
The shop’s first impression was very comfortable, modern, and minimalist.
Yi Feng knew it had that Apple Store vibe.
Inside, the decor featured a primary color sche of white and light yellow, with white walls and light yellow spotlights, yellow rosewood tables on both sides, and display shelves accented with light strips for atmosphere.
The ambiance made people feel very at ease and comfortable.
The shop was divided into four main areas: display shelves on both sides, two yellow rosewood tables in the center area designed by Yi Feng, very elegant and atmospheric.
These tables were intended for displaying computers and various components, allowing custors to imdiately feel a strong electronic technology vibe upon entering.
Besides repair services, Yi Feng also planned to sell assembled computers and new or second-hand components.
The third area was a rest area, not large but furnished with genuine leather seats, a water dispenser, and a fashionable magazine rack.
This area was mainly for custors waiting for their computers, a service area Yi Feng planned to improve further.
It was a key service scene!
The fourth area was Yi Feng’s workspace, with pegboards on the wall holding various tools, and the desktop equipped with testing instrunts, pressure gauges, power supply units, etc.
Though full of items, everything was neatly arranged.
This area was partially visible to custors, providing a very professional impression, with a distinct, simple Xifeng logo on the partition.
The entire shop had a minimalist, fashionable, and technological feel, very advanced in design and imrsive in experience.
Yi Feng chuckled, very pleased with his creation.
Xifeng Electronics was ready to soar!
