Chapter 422 Telling Gu Jia a Horror Story
After watching the movie at around four o'clock, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia went to the clothing mall and bought two autumn clothes for Gu Jia for maternity. Then they went home to pick up Gu's mother. The three of them had dinner outside and then went home.
In the evening, Zhou Jing and Gu Jia took a bath together. Zhou Jing washed himself while scrubbing Gu Jia's body. After taking a bath, they both went to rest in the bedroom early. Unable to sleep, Zhou Jing lay beside Gu Jia and observed her belly. Gu Jia's belly was fat, white and round. Zhou Jing drew circles on her belly with his fingers.
"Tell the baby a story."
Gu Jia looked at the boy and said with a smile.
"How about we tell each other how we met?"
Zhou Jing kissed Gu Jia's belly and said with a smile.
"Then you tell me."
Gu Jia didn’t care. Whether he was flirting with his students or the students were flirting with her, the matter was already settled.
"Do you like ghost stories?"
Zhou Jing picked up a book and said.
"can."
Gu Jia didn’t dare to read horror stories or watch movies alone, but she was not afraid when there was a boy around her.
"Then I'll tell you some strange things that happened in my hometown."
"It is said that on New Year's Eve, there will be a hundred ghosts parading at night. Normally, people cannot see them. Some ancient mountain villages have handed down some methods of spying on the Yin and Yang. There is a method in my hometown that is said to be able to do it. This method is to bring a piece of white gauze to a dark place on the mountain on New Year's Eve. After midnight, put your shoes on your left and right feet backwards, and then cover your face with the gauze. Through the gauze, you can see things that you shouldn't see."
Zhou Jing turned off the lights, thought for a moment and then began to talk about the prelude.
"Did it really happen in your hometown? Can you really see it if you do this on New Year's Eve?"
Gu Jia felt creepy when she heard it, especially when she turned off the lights. She felt that the air around her had become much colder.
"I haven't experienced it myself, but some inexplicable strange things happened in my grandfather's hometown. Do you want to continue listening?"
Zhou Jing pinched Gu Jia's leg and said.
"Speak!"
Gu Jia was afraid but couldn't help being curious. This exciting feeling made her unable to stop.
"About thirteen years ago, when I was still in primary school, three people died in car accidents in my grandfather's hometown. The first one happened on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month of that year. Huang Banxian from the village was riding his bicycle on his way home from the market when he suddenly ran into the middle of the road and was hit by an oncoming truck."
"The second incident happened in May of the same year. A 10-year-old boy was involved in a car accident on his way home from school."
"The third incident happened in July. A young man in his twenties died in a motorcycle accident in the village."
"In August, a teenage boy in the village went crazy. He often sleepwalked in the middle of the night, screaming and talking nonsense. One time, he was almost at a cemetery when he sleepwalked. His parents caught up with him and carried him home. The next day, the boy woke up and said that he saw a dog carrying the body of a person who looked very similar to him and walking towards the cemetery at night."
"what!"
Gu Jia was listening intently and was startled by the sudden ringing of her cell phone.
"Do you still listen?"
Zhou Jing paused and smiled.
"Ah."
Gu Jia nodded. She was very nervous at the moment, but the more she listened, the more curious she became.
"From that day on, the boy became crazy."
"That year, the village was shrouded in dark clouds. There were rumors that sixteen more people in the village would get into trouble. There was no point in moving, and people were in a panic. So the village chief, Old Man Li, found a master. The master came to the village and said that there were evil things in the village. He gave the crazy boy something to drink, and the boy became more stable. He said that on New Year's Eve, he and the three people who had been in the car accident went to the mountains with white gauze."
"The master said that raising a dog could resolve the problem, and a white dog was the best, followed by a black dog. So every household in the village raised a dog. After that, every new moon day, which is the day when the moon is not visible, the whole village would be filled with the sound of dogs barking at night."
Zhou Jing stopped here.
Gu Jia said with lingering fear: "Can it be that way that one can really see things that one shouldn't see?"
"I don't know. No one dares to try it anymore."
Zhou Jing shook his head and said.
"What happened to the boy who went crazy?"
Gu Jia asked curiously.
"He was crazy for three years. One day, his dog ate a rat that had been poisoned by rat poison and died. A few days later, the boy slipped and fell off a cliff. After that, everything in the village returned to normal."
This story Zhou Jing wrote was based on the incident in his hometown where three people died in car accidents within a year. He exaggerated it and combined it with strange stories he had read in storybooks. Seeing that Gu Jia was so frightened that she dared not breathe, Zhou Jing felt that he was worthy of being an online writer and had his own way of telling stories.
"Do you think there are any supernatural things in this world?"
Gu Jia began to doubt science after hearing what she heard.
"Who knows, unless you have experienced it yourself." Zhou Jing put his arm around Gu Jia's waist and said, "Do you take the story I told you seriously?"
“It sounds like the truth.”
Gu Jia was a little amused and helpless.
"But it is true that three people died in a car accident in my hometown village that year."
"Well, it does seem strange that three people in one village have car accidents in one year."
Gu Jia relaxed a little and said.
"Some things are hard to explain. In July of that year, an old lady in the village fell off a cliff and died. Two or three days left in the twelfth lunar month before the Chinese New Year, the old lady's eldest son died in a car accident. This was one of the three people who had a car accident that year. This person was on his way home from a business trip when his car fell off a mountain road. The driver and two colleagues in the car were fine."
Zhou Jing suddenly thought of this unfortunate family.
"This is such a coincidence. When I was a kid, I heard at my grandmother's house that some animals would be struck by lightning when they reach a certain size."
Gu Jiagang had just dispelled his doubts but couldn't help but wonder what this world was like.
"Isn't this the tribulation in the novel?"
Zhou Jing was very familiar with this kind of story.
Gu Jia can't do anything at night now, so it's interesting to listen to Zhou Jing telling stories.
The next day, Sunday, Zhou Jing stayed at home with Gu Jia and did not go anywhere. He made plans for the electronics factory in the morning and afternoon.
Monday soon arrived, and Zhou Jing came to the company at around eight o'clock. Mondays are always busy. In order to improve office efficiency, Zhou Jing does not require the project team to attend unimportant meetings. The weekly company routine meetings are only attended by administrative, financial and other position personnel. Project meetings are attended by project leaders and foremen of each project team. A full-staff meeting is held at the end of each month.
This Monday is the first regular meeting of September. The finance department has to report on last month's performance, and the project team has to summarize the completion of last month's projects. Zhou Jing asked administrative, financial and other personnel and project team leaders to attend together.
At the meeting, Project Director Wang Tao first reported on the projects done by each group last month, and then Qin Zhengyu reported on the operation status.
Then, Executive Director and Deputy Financial Manager Tang Yuan reported on the company’s financial situation last month, including revenue, cost, profit, and comparison with the previous month’s data.
"The company's rapid development is inseparable from the efforts of everyone." "Next, the company will make a simple adjustment. The company plans to set up a new department, the Electronic Technology R&D Department, which will focus on hardware technology and prepare for the electronics factory project in advance. Brother Li Jianwei will serve as the director of the R&D department."
After others finished their reports, Zhou Jing announced the company's adjustments.
Li Jianwei is a computer engineer and is good at hardware. Not only will staying in the software project team conflict with Wang Tao's position, but he will also not be able to bring out his strengths. It would be most appropriate for him to be in charge of hardware technology research and development.
Li Jianwei was very happy about this. Zhou Jing had called Li Jianwei yesterday to discuss the matter. This meant that the electronics factory's plan was officially on the agenda, and everyone in the company was excited.
At the end of the meeting, Zhou Jing asked Tang Yuan to formally announce the salary increase plan starting in September, as well as the personnel assessment method.
There is only one principle for personnel assessment: the capable are promoted and the mediocre are demoted; the capable earn more money, while the mediocre earn less money.
In the tide of the times, if an enterprise wants to survive, a strict reward and punishment system is essential. Allowing mediocre people or slackers to be reused for a long time is a big blow to capable people.
The company is now beginning to take shape, and the construction of systems in all aspects must keep up.
After the meeting, Tang Yuan made a report on the rules and regulations formulated by Zhou Jingxin, sent it to the company group, and incorporated it into the company's management system.
"Mr. Zhou, this is the autumn recruitment report of some universities in Tangdu."
Human Resources sorted out the university recruitment information and reported to Zhou Jing.
"Okay, let's focus on these universities."
Zhou Jing put a check mark behind Tangdu University of Technology, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China and other schools.
"it is good."
"You should communicate with this person for the specific recruitment work."
Zhou Jing took a piece of paper and wrote down the contact information of the head of the human resources department of Bowei Network Technology Co., Ltd.
"Okay, Mr. Zhou."
"."
After watching the pretty girl from the Human Resources Department leave, Zhou Jing returned his gaze to the computer screen.
The R&D personnel assembled the internal panel of the Bluetooth speaker, and Zhou Jing was personally responsible for the Bluetooth control system. The core of this speaker is the Bluetooth control system, which is also a company secret. If the application is successful, the next step will definitely be to apply for a patent.
The Bluetooth connection and wireless control system written by Zhou Jing is currently in the initial version. To turn on the speaker, computer or mobile phone, you need to manually search and connect on the computer or mobile phone. A speaker can only connect to one target at a time. It is not easy to implement this kind of speaker for the first attempt. It not only involves Bluetooth connection, but Bluetooth connection has already been realized. The technology to be solved now is Bluetooth transmission of audio signals, but the essence is still radio transmission and conversion.
After tinkering with it for a day, Zhou Jing was able to realize this function, but it was not stable enough, and the transmission speed and distance were not ideal. Zhou Jing lowered the requirements and decided that the first generation product could achieve stability within 0.3 meters. He upgraded the technology step by step, and the existing Bluetooth technology also needed to be upgraded to meet the requirements of smartphones.
From Tuesday to Thursday, Zhou Jing focused on mastering Bluetooth technology. By Thursday, he made obvious progress and went to Tangdu to bring it to the school on Friday.
We arrived in Tangdu at around eleven o'clock in the morning. Bai Xiyao drove to pick us up at the airport. After we arrived in Tangdu, we had lunch and went to the company.
"Look at the results of the Bluetooth speaker and turn on the computer Bluetooth."
Zhou Jing took out the device from his bag and connected the battery, which was a mobile phone battery that could be charged when installed on the speaker.
"Looks good."
Bai Xiyao is very familiar with audio hardware. She majored in computer science in college, and her major focus was hardware. Whether it is computers, mobile phones or other electronic devices, the hardware used inside is assembled from basic hardware.
"I can upgrade the Bluetooth technology, but the Bluetooth on some phones is very backward."
Zhou Jing thought that after the mobile phone was made, he would develop a technology similar to Bluetooth, so that he would have a backup in case Bluetooth could not be used in the future. Without a backup, he would be dead.
"We can save the technology first and put it on mobile phones next year so it can become a highlight."
Bai Xiyao thought for a moment and said.
"Okay, let's make a sample and see."
Zhou Jing also felt that making the phone in this way would be more reliable. If a phone were the first to implement this technology, it would definitely cause a sensation in the industry.
“This technology will surely become popular in the future.”
After experiencing it, Bai Xiyao praised it.
Zhou Jing doesn't feel surprised when he knows the future. Nowadays people still use face recognition to make fun of a person's narcissism. They certainly can't imagine that in the future they can really use face recognition to take a bus, shop, and stay in a hotel. People nowadays think these words are science fiction, but they don't know that in a few years their lifestyle will undergo earth-shaking changes, and life will be more diversified than ever before. It is still fortunate to be born in this era.
"How is the school recruitment team preparing?"
Zhou Jing took a bottle of iced Sprite and took two sips.
"You're ready. After you take over the electronics factory, are you going to ask your father-in-law for help?"
Last month, Bai Xiyao hired two professional finance and human resources managers for Bowei Network Technology Co., Ltd., who can be used at any time.
“Let’s see after we make the product.”
What can Zhou Jing do if he can't produce a decent product by asking his father-in-law for help? So there is not much point in asking his father-in-law now. The company is mainly facing technical problems now, and technical problems can only be solved by the company.
"Too."
Bai Xiyao nodded and said.
"Is the technical data of the electronics factory okay?"
Zhou Jing asked as he looked through the project information of Bowei Network.
"No problem. The data has been sealed in advance. After the production line is upgraded, the finished product can be made."
The deposit has already been paid to the electronics factory, and the acquisition is a done deal.
Bai Xiyao took out a file bag from the safe and handed it to Zhou Jing, saying, "It contains the electrical control system and power distribution system of the Qingxian New Town Project Hospital. Go back and give it to the technical director."
"Okay, how's the project going?"
Zhou Jing put the file bag into his bag.
"The outdoor area is basically done. This kind of project may seem like a big undertaking, but it is actually just about laying cables. The core is the control system, and then there is the quality of the materials used. In order to ensure the stability of the hospital's power supply, there is an emergency backup system."
Bai Xiyao just came back from Qing County yesterday. There are no technical or quality issues with the project.
Zhou Jing felt relieved that Bai Xiyao was in charge of the technology.
After taking a break at Bowen Network Technology Co., Ltd., the two went to Tangdu to inspect the project site. The project worth more than 50 million yuan was a new district development. Bai Xiyao personally supervised the major projects in Tangdu and Qingxian, and everything was carried out strictly in accordance with technical requirements.
The weather in Tangdu in September was still hot and muggy. After a tour of the construction site, Zhou Jing and Bai Xiyao went to meet a client who came from Jiangsu Province specifically to discuss the project and sell electronic control equipment.
No matter it is cables or equipment, Bai Xiyao doesn't care what the other party says, but looks at the actual quality of the things. If the quality is not up to standard, it is useless for the manufacturer to say something great. Bai Xiyao has already asked the technicians to disassemble and inspect the equipment prototype. The reason why she is willing to talk to the other party is because the equipment has passed the inspection, otherwise there is no need for a face-to-face interview.
After agreeing on the price, Bai Xiyao decided to purchase a batch for trial use.
"I feel much more at ease with you around."
After signing the contract and returning to the car, Bai Xiyao sighed.
