Chapter 421 Husband Guard
"What do you want to do tomorrow?"
Zhou Jing held Gu Jia's slender hand that was kissing him and said with a smile.
"There's nothing you want to do. What do you want to do?"
It was inconvenient for Gu Jia to go anywhere with her big belly.
"Want to see a movie?"
In the month of August which has already ended, Zhou Jing was busy running between two companies and did not spend much time with Gu Jia. He will go to Tangdu and Yushi next week, so he will take advantage of the time this weekend to spend some time with Gu Jia.
"Row."
Gu Jia nodded. She was indeed bored after staying at home for so long, so it was no problem for the boy to accompany her.
"How about having dinner out after the movie tomorrow?"
Gu's mother works hard cooking every day, so Zhou Jing lets her take a break on weekends.
"Okay, I want to eat the paper-wrapped fish from Tianchen. My hands are sore. Stand still and I'll give it to you. Go down and lock the door."
Gu Jia shook his hands and said softly.
She can't lie down now.
Zhou Jing did as he was told, went downstairs to lock the bedroom door, took a sip of water, and threw a roll of paper on the bed.
"Which day next week are you going to Tangdu?"
Gu Jia gently tapped Zhou Jing's eight-pack abs and said with a smile.
"Friday, back on Monday."
The projects of Bowei Network Technology Co., Ltd. are carried out normally on weekends. Zhou Jing goes back on weekends to minimize the impact on Chuangzhi Technology Co., Ltd. He returns to Tangdu on Friday, to Qingxian on Saturday, to Yulin to see Yang Wenwen on Sunday, and just returns to BJ on Monday.
Gu Jia said: "Go back by plane, don't drive alone."
"Well, Master is getting more and more skillful with his words."
Zhou Jing nodded and gently pinched Gu Jia's face.
"You lecher." Gu Jia bit the boy gently and said with a smile, "Is that true?"
"Yeah." Zhou Jing said with a smile: "Really? We can't use really?"
"Really usually expresses doubt or surprise, and Is that true is a formal question about the authenticity of something. Do you understand?"
Gu Jia answered patiently.
"I see. How do you say that in English?"
At this time, Zhou Jing was like a diligent and inquisitive student, learning English with Teacher Gu.
“It’s true or that’s true.”
Gu Jia said with her tongue curled.
“Can I use really?”
Zhou Jing continued to ask questions.
"It's OK in an informal context." Gu Jia glanced at the boy and said with a smile, "How could he not learn well if he loved studying so much in high school?"
"I feel pretty good that I got 106 in the college entrance examination in English."
Zhou Jing didn't have high requirements for English, so it was unexpected that he could be admitted to a 211 university.
"You're not ashamed to say that. Anyway, I didn't teach you. It doesn't matter how many points you take."
Gu Jia snorted.
"From elementary school to college, my English teacher only remembered you. I have forgotten the last names of other English teachers. I never paid attention to the names of my English teachers in college, and I basically don't know the names of any of my college teachers."
Zhou Jing tapped Gu Jia's face lightly and said.
"It's useless for teachers to teach students like you." Gu Jia pinched the boy's waist and said unhappily, "From elementary school to college, sixteen years, how many teachers do you remember? Except me."
Zhou Jing thought for a moment and said calmly, "Besides you, I seem to remember Yang Wenwen."
"Because Yang Wenwen is pretty, right?"
Gu Jia was so angry that she laughed.
"You are more beautiful."
Zhou Jing didn't dare to talk anymore and wanted to skip this topic.
"Zhao Xin, you must remember that Zhao Xin's marriage was not very happy in the past two years. Last year, her QQ signature said that her life was a mess. I don't know how she is doing now."
Gu Jia was not angry. Yang Wenwen had been the boy's class teacher for three years, and the boy was also the class monitor. Yang Wenwen must have taken care of him more than other students. It could be seen from the time when the two were colleagues that the friendship between teacher and student was very strong.
"I don't know. I haven't seen Zhao Xin since I resigned."
Zhou Jing shook his head.
After a long time, Zhou Jing went to the bathroom and got a glass of water, a foot basin, and some mouthwash.
Gu Jia first rinsed her mouth with clean water, and then rinsed it with mouthwash.
Zhou Jing poured the water into the bathroom, filled the washbasin with warm water, put a towel in it and went back to the bedroom. He washed the towel and let Gu Jia wash her face, and wiped the foreign matter off Gu Jia's hair.
After Gu Jia washed her face, Zhou Jing poured the water and went back to the house to rest.
"Almost five months."
Gu Jia touched her belly and sighed. The last five months were much more difficult than the first five months.
Zhou Jing put his ear to Gu Jia's belly and listened before falling asleep.
The next day, Saturday, when Zhou Jing and Gu Jia woke up at around seven o'clock, Gu's mother was already making breakfast. After Zhou Jing went to the toilet and washed his hands, he went to the kitchen to see if he could help.
Black rice porridge was cooking in the pot and Gu's mother was making dumplings.
"Xiao Zhou, you don't have to get up so early. Take advantage of the weekend to have a good rest."
Mother Gu looked at her son-in-law with a smile on her face.
"I went to bed early at night and woke up unable to fall asleep again."
During this period, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to bed at 10:30 p.m. at the latest. They were more self-disciplined than when they were in college. In college, they never fell asleep before midnight. They went to bed early at night and woke up early in the morning.
"It's almost wrapped, no need to stick your hands anymore."
Mother Gu said with a smile.
“I make the dip.”
The dipping sauce was not ready yet, but Zhou Jing started to make it. He peeled a few cloves of garlic, chopped them and put them in a bowl, sprinkled some salt and mashed the garlic with a small rolling pin, washed three chili peppers, chopped them and put them in the garlic paste, added some chili powder and white sesame seeds, heated oil in a pan, poured it into a bowl, then added soy sauce, oysters, vinegar, sugar, etc., and the soul sauce was ready.
Afterwards, Zhou Jing washed another handful of coriander and chopped it for later use.
"I'll cook lunch, what would you like to eat?"
Zhou Jing looked at Gu Jia who walked into the kitchen.
"I can do anything. My mother said that people who eat for free have no right to make demands."
Gu Jia looked at Gu's mother and said with a smile.
"How can it be a free meal?"
Zhou Jing smiled. No one in this family is a freeloader, not Gu Jia.
"Silly girl." Mother Gu rolled her eyes at her daughter, looked at Zhou Jing and said with a chuckle, "No need for Xiao Zhou to do it, just take a good rest this weekend."
"It's okay, Mom will take a break for two days." Zhou Jing thought and said, "Sweet and sour pork tenderloin, lettuce with oyster sauce, minced meat and eggplant, Master, add one more."
"Three dishes will do, and corn."
Gu Jia thought the three dishes the boy mentioned were perfect, both vegetarian and meaty. Zhou Jing nodded, tidied up his and Gu Jia's bedrooms, steamed dumplings, and after breakfast, the three of them went to the community square. Gu's mother went to the square dance place to stretch her muscles with the team, and Zhou Jing took Gu Jia for a walk.
On weekend mornings, the community square is much busier than usual.
During the week, the community square is usually filled with old men and women in the mornings, but on weekends you can see many young people.
At this time, the young men who did not have classes on the weekend were playing basketball on the basketball court.
The badminton courts and table tennis tables are mainly occupied by middle-aged people.
The square dance area on the east side of the square is mostly populated by middle-aged women, and occasionally you can see a flamboyant old man dancing along.
In the northwest corner of the square is the children's playground, where the children are having a great time.
There are several tables next to the badminton court, and several uncles are playing cards.
Young people get up late and there is no place to exercise when they arrive at the community square. They can only play badminton in the unmarked open space. The young ladies jump rope or play shuttlecock, while the boys run.
Life on weekends is simple and unpretentious, and it is a rare opportunity for office workers to enjoy life.
"If you want to exercise, go ahead and exercise. I can just stand."
After walking for a while, Gu Jia let go of the boy's arm and said.
Zhou Jing found a horizontal bar to do pull-ups, "Help me count, do a hundred."
"come on."
Gu Jia looked at the boy with a smile and counted silently in her heart.
After a while, Zhou Jing attracted the girls passing by, and some of them even stopped.
"17, 18"
Gu Jia moved closer to the horizontal bar and stopped counting silently, but counted out loud.
The girl next to her turned and walked away when she saw this.
Noticing Gu Jia's protective behavior towards her husband, Zhou Jing continued to do pull-ups with a smile. Teacher Gu looked quite cute when she was jealous.
"Why are you so handsome?"
After the boy finished doing pull-ups, Gu Jia pinched his cheek and said.
"You are so beautiful and you still have a sense of crisis?"
Zhou Jing put his arm around Gu Jia's waist and said.
"Yes!"
How could Gu Jia not have a sense of crisis? The boy was young, handsome and outstanding. Any girl would have a sense of crisis if he were her girlfriend, not to mention that she was six years older than him.
Zhou Jing felt that he was not a shameless playboy. His partners included all kinds of beautiful women, who often flirted with him, but Zhou Jing never lost his composure. After being with Gu Jia, he never met other girls.
There were children riding bicycles and rocking bikes recklessly in the square, and Zhou Jing took Gu Jia's arm to keep them away from the naughty kids.
"Mom, go home first after you finish your exercise. Jiajia and I will go buy some groceries on the way."
Passing by the square dance area, Zhou Jing said to his mother-in-law.
"it is good."
Mother Gu's face was filled with a proud smile.
After taking a short walk, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to the supermarket to buy vegetables. When they got home, Zhou Jing cooked while Gu's mother cleaned the room.
Cooking home-cooked meals is a piece of cake for Zhou Jing. It was still early, so Zhou Jing prepared the ingredients for sweet and sour pork tenderloin, went to the study, turned on the computer, looked up some information, started cooking at ten o'clock, and finished it just after eleven o'clock.
"Xiao Zhou's craftsmanship is really good."
Mother Gu couldn't be more satisfied with her son-in-law Zhou Jing.
"My craftsmanship isn't bad, is it?"
Gu Jia felt that his cooking skills were also very good.
"Xiao Zhou taught well."
Gu's mother was pleasantly surprised by the changes in her daughter over the past year. The year before last, her daughter couldn't tell the difference between grains, was busy in the kitchen, couldn't do housework, and was even asked to clean the school dormitory. At that time, she, as a mother, was really worried.
After lunch, Zhou Jing dealt with company emails on his computer.
Qin Zhengyu discussed a project to build a database and information system for a listed company. Zhou Jing needed to check the specific details. Zhou Jing carefully read the project requirements and then checked the contract agreement. The other party required two free upgrades to the system and database. These were minor issues. Zhou Jing replied to Qin Zhengyu that he could sign.
After replying to Qin Zhengyu, Zhou Jing was thinking about the electronics factory, thinking about how to upgrade the products and what products can be made this year. Bluetooth headsets cannot be made now, firstly, Bluetooth control is not mature, and secondly, micro batteries are not mature.
The most important thing right now is the mobile phone. Zhou Jing has disassembled three iPhone 3GSs and is familiar with the internal hardware of smartphones. With the domestic industrial chain, it is not a problem to assemble mobile phones and computers by copying others. Upgrading or improving a certain hardware, or changing the system will create a brand. The first step is to buy the core, and the key is how to form your own core and advantageous selling points in the iterative process and establish a brand.
For example, whether it focuses on photography or gaming performance, video, smooth experience, ecology, etc., there are many mobile phone brands, and no one is a perfect all-rounder. On the one hand, it is limited by the technical level, and on the other hand, it is the actual needs of users.
Technically, the total processing power of both hardware and software is limited. If you focus on a certain performance, the performance allocated to other functions will inevitably be affected. The pursuit of omnipotence requires both smoothness and gaming performance as well as extreme photography. The result is that nothing is done well in any aspect, no advantage is formed, there is a lack of selling points, and thus no market competitiveness.
In terms of user needs, generally speaking, busy office workers have limited time to play games, so they naturally do not have high requirements for mobile game performance. On the contrary, they have relatively high requirements for communication, battery life, and ecology.
The student group is quite special. They have limited financial resources, but like to play games. Therefore, machines targeting students are more popular if they are made into mid-to-low-end game consoles, even if the daily experience is not so good as long as they can play games stably.
This is why some mobile phones are obviously very expensive and are criticized for generating heat when playing games. High-end machines costing thousands of dollars are not as good as machines costing two thousand dollars for playing games, but they sell very well. These machines are not originally targeted at gamers.
After much thought, if Zhou Jing successfully enters the mobile phone industry, he will not make high-end phones before 15 years. He will target college students and build them specifically for college students. This is Zhou Jing's first stage in making mobile phones. While accumulating users, he will reserve technology to prepare for the second stage of impacting the high-end and the third stage of creating an independent ecosystem to impact purely domestic high-end.
The reason why Zhou Jing included the creation of purely domestic high-end products in the third stage is that as long as his own brand truly stands out in the international market, it will inevitably suffer from external suppression and technological blockade, not just in the mobile phone industry, not just in the East. As long as you don't succumb to big beauty, big beauty will not allow you to grow bigger, stronger, and more awesome.
After establishing the general direction, Zhou Jing began to make specific plans.
It is definitely not enough to rely on a foundry electronics factory to make mobile phones. A team proficient in radio communications is also needed. Zhou Jing plans to first set up a research and development team from Tangdu University of Technology or University of Electronic Science and Technology of China. If the requirements cannot be met, he will poach people from other mobile phone companies, or even poach teams. At this time when Nokia is in decline, it is not difficult to poach a technical team.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou Jing turned off the computer, changed clothes and went out with Gu Jia.
"Maternity clothes are so hard to choose, how about wearing this?"
Gu Jia couldn't wear tight pants now, so she changed into a pair of cream-colored wide-leg pants, a white short-sleeved shirt and a light pink shirt.
"Yes, the most beautiful pregnant woman."
Zhou Jing touched Gu Jia's belly, and at this moment she looked like a beautiful young woman.
"Then this is it. Mom doesn't have to cook tonight. We'll pick you up and eat out after the movie."
Gu Jia carried a bag.
"Okay, stay safe."
Mother Gu tidied her daughter's clothes and sent her and her son-in-law out.
Go out and drive Gu Jia's car. Gu Jia's SUV has a high chassis, which makes it more comfortable for pregnant women to sit in.
Zhou Jing first helped Gu Jia sit in the passenger seat, fastened her seat belt, and then walked around the front of the car to get in.
“I haven’t driven in a while.”
Gu Jia looked at the windshield of her car. The glass was a little dirty.
"The boss lady doesn't need to drive herself."
Zhou Jing smiled and slowly turned the steering wheel and started away. He was not only careful in front of him, but also avoided road killers behind and on the sides.
"It's a hard life, but I still like to drive myself."
Although Gu Jia can be considered spoiled, she is not used to being served, especially by strangers, so she would not hire a nanny even if she had the conditions.
Zhou Jing was very careful along the way, trying not to cut in and keeping a safe distance.
"Master, please get out of the car."
Arriving at the cinema, Zhou Jing parked the car, got out and went to help Gu Jia.
