Chapter 13 The birth of a great post on Tieba!
Until 6:30 in the afternoon.
People from my eldest aunt's family started to arrive one after another.
The first one to come back was my cousin Yuan Song, whose nickname was Yuan Damao.
He got the job after graduating from university last year and is now a police officer at the Chengxi Police Station.
"Yang Xiao is here? He must be in his third year of high school."
After Yuan Song came in, the first thing he said was a fatherly remark. Yang Xiao was speechless and could only respond helplessly, and then started chatting with him.
He had a good relationship with Yuan Song. He remembered that when he first lived with his aunt, Yuan Song was in the third grade of junior high school.
The first time Yang Xiao went to an Internet cafe, it was Yuan Song who took him there.
At that time he was standing aside, and he found it very enjoyable to watch Yuan Song having fun. Even running errands and keeping watch became his tasks.
Of course, as a reward, he would occasionally turn on a computer for Yang Xiao and let him play for an hour or so.
"Brother Song, where is Jingjing?"
"Downstairs. Just came back from Taekwondo class."
As the two were talking, the door opened.
Yang Xiao's parents and eldest aunt and her husband walked in together.
Behind them was a cute girl of about twelve or thirteen, with a ponytail and wearing a white Taekwondo training suit. She rushed in first, then came to the two of them excitedly, shouting, "Brother Xiao, you're here!"
The girl's name is He Jing, and she is Yuan Song's biological sister.
As for why they have different surnames.
Um...it’s hard to explain due to some special policy reasons.
He Jing and Yuan Song are about ten years apart in age, so they are not very close. On the contrary, she is closer to Yang Xiao.
Because every generation has its own online mentor.
Yang Xiao played this role in He Jing's life.
Yang Xiao took care of all the QQ registration and QQ space decoration for her.
Speaking of this cousin, Yang Xiao also found it funny.
He Jing has been cheerful, carefree and not fussy since she was a child. There were many boys who liked her in college.
Among them there was even a rich second-generation who left a deep impression on him.
At that time, He Jing didn't want to go home to take a job exam, so she just wandered around Shenzhen. This rich second-generation also rented a house near where she rented one.
In the end, He Jing couldn't resist her family, and her uncle's company found someone and forced her to come back and take the exam.
Even the second generation of rich people followed along and took a job in a unit.
It was this unswerving determination, as well as his billions of wealth, that moved his aunt and her family. Seeing her sincerity, He Jing finally agreed reluctantly.
After sitting and chatting with everyone for half an hour, eldest aunt Yang Jiafen invited everyone to sit down and eat.
The table full of chicken, fish and meat was prepared by my uncle Yuan Dahua.
At the dinner table, everyone was talking about opening a store, and Yang Xiao realized that Yang Jianguo had been busy all day.
Yang Jianguo is a man of decisive character.
With the help of my uncle, the telecommunications company quickly approved the procedures.
This morning I went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to register for a business license, and then withdrew money from the bank to pay the deposit for opening a store.
In the afternoon, I looked at shops near my home, quickly decided on one, and signed a lease contract.
Yang Jiafen said: "Don't worry about the decoration. I can find someone I know and it will be done quickly."
Yuan Dahua also said, "Is the money enough? If not, I can take some more from here to make ends meet."
Yang Jianguo nodded: "It's enough, you don't have to worry about it."
"Don't worry about the renovation these days. I'll arrange for someone to guide you for a few days. You're an electrician, so go get a certificate for climbing heights these days. Then I'll take care of the broadband installation as well, and you can earn extra money."
"it is good."
...
Yang Xiao stood aside without saying much, letting the situation develop naturally.
Now that things are on the right track, he doesn't need to worry too much at this time.
Listening to the adults' conversation, Yang Xiao felt a little emotional.
Although my family is not very wealthy, fortunately, the relatives on my father's side have very harmonious relationships, and my eldest aunt's family has helped them a lot.
This can be considered a kind of luck.
You know, there are quite a few families where brothers and sisters are not in harmony, and there are many troubles that follow.
After dinner, I left my parents at my aunt's house to plan other details for opening the store.
Yang Xiao went out alone and came to the Internet cafe. He turned on a computer in the corner and continued to update the story of "Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li". There were still about 20,000 words, but Yang Xiao planned to update 3,000 words every day.
Currently, more and more people are following the update!
Let the popularity of this post continue to ferment!
In the following period of time, Yang Xiao also made a suitable daily plan for himself.
Get up early every day and go out for exercise for an hour, and then study during the day.
I go to the Internet cafe to update at night.
One week later.
The story of "Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li" has come to an end.
Yang Xiao left two words at the end:
"The story ends here. If you like it, please follow my Weibo and personal forum. My ID with the same name is: Time."
"Welcome all friends to play. If there is a sequel to the story of "Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li", it will be updated here. Let me reveal that there will be other exciting stories by then!"
……
With the conclusion of the story of "Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li", the post suddenly reached a whole new height!
Many people even posted articles to analyze and resolve the emotional relationships between the characters in the article.
Various forums, Tianya community, Douban gossip groups and other platforms are discussing this story, and they all call it the birth of a great post!
It can be said that it has earned many people's tears.
It received unanimous positive reviews!
"Who is this great writer called Shi Guang? He writes so well!"
"Can any expert tell me who Xiao Zhang said "I love you" to at the end?"
"I read it three times and cried my heart out. Why does my heart hurt so much?"
"Do you want to choose Xiao Zhang or Xiao Li?"
"Adults make choices, I want them all!"
……
There's really no telling why this post was so successful.
Everyone treats it as a short story, it has a wide audience and seems to be very addictive.
Working people in their thirties and forties could empathize with the characters in the article, and their hearts were like a calm lake suddenly stirred by ripples.
For young people in their twenties who have just entered society, facing the cruel reality, this is like a thorn in the throat and painful.
Teenagers find the emotions in the article dreamy and hazy, and their understanding of love is ambiguous but they also yearn for it.
It really took the entire Internet by storm!
There’s nothing we can do about it, today’s netizens are too naive.
Many people felt the same way and unconsciously substituted this helpless and unrestrained attitude and forced self-mockery into their stories!
If it happened more than ten years later, netizens would definitely criticize the author so much that he wouldn’t even be recognized by his mother.
Yang Xiao could imagine what the situation was in the comment section.
"Who knows, my family, a man without a job can find a partner, and more than one. These idiots dare to think of anything!"
"Where is the author from? The stinky country nymph is too despicable. In real life, is he a stinky rat in the gutter?"
"Speechless, the author is really making fun of me, what is he doing here?"
"Girls, this is a speechless incident, I am disgusted again!"
"Annoying Ant +1"
At this time, the post was reposted and moved by many netizens, and the ID Shiguang became popular.
Xiaodu officials took the lead in adding fuel to the fire.
They found that the post had an astonishing amount of traffic, so they directly put it on the homepage and attached a direct link.
This once again brought huge traffic to Yang Xiao.
Since smartphones had not yet been invented, Internet hot spots could only be viewed through push notifications on computers, but the number of Internet users is growing rapidly every moment.
So every day there are newbies who have just learned how to use the Internet and registered on the forum who see this post and click on it out of curiosity.
Are there so many great people on the Internet?
It’s just a post, why is it so touching?
Many young netizens, who have little experience, take it as a golden rule and even develop a favorable impression of the forum.
Greatly increased user stickiness.
The Internet is so fun!
Mom, I want to play more!
According to the recollections of many new netizens, this post became their introduction to the Internet.
It also became the first nostalgic milestone in their online career.
……
How many friends have read this post?
I recommend you to watch it if you haven't seen it, it's pretty good.
