Chapter 529: Chapter 529: Fleeing in all directions Hearing a knock on the door, Hong Haoran continued to type on the keyboard with great efficiency. Without looking up, he said, 'Come in,'
The person who had just entered called out, "President Hong," but Hong Haoran still didn't look up and said, "Wait a minute,'
After finishing writing a few lines of code, he looked at the person who had entered somewhat unhappily and asked, "What is it?'
But he saw Xu Bin standing next to the employee, smiling. 'Lao Xu, why are you here? Why didn't you say anything just now? Please sit down,'
'I didn't want to disturb you as I saw you were busy,' Xu Bin knew that Hong Haoran was the kind of person who would be fine if you interrupted him making out with his wife, but if you interrupted his train of thought, he might just turn on you.
'Fine, you don't need to make tea either. The website is opening very slowly, again at a snail's pace. This time, I have to drag you along to help me take a look,'
'What, not again?' Hong Haoran was dumbfounded and asked the project manager who had brought Xu Bin in, "What's the problem?'
'It should still be too much traffic,'
Xu Bin didn't care, and pulled him out of the way, "I don't understand this. You've already said twice that the traffic is too high. You built our website and we commissioned you to maintain it. Now you just solve the problem completely for me.'
The hotel reservation system has been particularly busy these past few days, but this bustle has nothing to do with Yijia Express Hotel. Everyone is booking rooms at Jiasheng Holiday Hotel.
This excitement is still caused by Xu Bin.
More than 20,000 tickets have long been sold out. The main concert venue, including the stage, is only about 60 mu in total, and there must be enough passages left. Therefore, the total capacity is limited to about 25,000 people.
This guy, under the influence of Feng Yiping, was always wondering if he could use this concert to generate some additional income. So a couple of days ago he suggested that the guest rooms at the front of the venue could also be sold. Although there are no outdoor balconies here, they all have large glass windows, and the acoustics are even better than those of the audience below.
The only downside is that most of the time, you can't see the stars' faces, but this is always a chance to get up close and personal with these big stars. Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
If only five people are allowed to sit in front of the window of a guest room, and excluding the top six floors for the stars, there will be more than a thousand extra tickets on this side, which will bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars.
And, incidentally, it would add some popularity to the website. He was also wondering at the time whether, with just over a thousand tickets, it would be possible to make everyone on the website explode, just like that video on a good website before.
As it turned out, he underestimated the influence of these stars. Once the news was released, the Yijia website was turned upside down.
Originally, unlike the later Korean wave, it was the time when these Hong Kong stars swept across Asia. Just the two kings performing on the same stage, a concert like this would absolutely be full if you find a stadium with a capacity of 40,000 people. Now only 20,000 tickets are on sale. Apart from the tickets for the VIPs, there are so many suppliers who have the priority to purchase, and only 10,000 tickets are really available for sale. Most of these 10,000 tickets will be sold in the province, and those from other provinces really cannot get them even if they want to.
Now there are suddenly more than a thousand extra tickets. How can the fans of so many celebrities not be excited? Even if they don't want to buy, they still want to join the fun. So, even before the booking time, Yijia's website was overwhelmed by enthusiastic netizens yesterday, and this morning it was impossible to log in again. Zhitong has already been maintained twice. Now, it is like the later 12306, which has just gone online, and there is nothing that can be done at all.
'We can only rent you a temporary server again. Xu, tell me, how much trouble have you caused us just for these 1,000-odd tickets?' Hong Haoran pointed at Xu Bin.
'Hong Zong, Hong Da Ge, you're wrong. In the past few months since the website went online, we haven't caused you any trouble, and you still pay the maintenance fee every month. We've been training our soldiers for months, so why can't we use them for just one day? In fact, we don't even need them for one day, as long as you can ensure that the website runs smoothly, these rooms will be fully booked within a few hours,'
They are all young people with similar experiences. Among all the senior management, Hong Haoran and Xu Bin have the best personal relationship. The two of them usually talk and communicate very casually.
...
This matter is not just a nuisance for Hong Haoran. When it was rumoured that tickets for the concert were being sold on the Yijia website, and that the concert was organised by Feng Yiping's company, it could no longer be kept secret.
The one who suffered most was Xiaomei. Feng Yiping's phone never stopped ringing, and she didn't even have time to make a list of the callers. This time, the calls were more focused, all from his classmates or their classmates, with one goal: to get tickets, not for free, but to pay for them!
Feng Yiping, who still didn't understand the situation, was surrounded by enthusiastic classmates in three layers during the morning class. They didn't let him go until the professor came in. What's funny is that the professor, who had asked for the reason, also asked, 'Do you have any extras? My daughter has also been clamoring for tickets to this concert,'
In order to safely get out of the school, Feng Yiping, for the first time, boldly and audaciously left the lecture hall early in the middle of the lecture while the professor was writing on the blackboard!
The way to leave the lecture hall was also very unsmooth. Seeing that he wanted to run, the students by the aisle reached out to grab him one after the other. When he finally broke through, his belt was almost torn off. It seems that there were also some female students among them. Are you taking advantage of the situation?
The professor, attracted by the noise, happened to see Feng Yiping, who was disheveled, about to run out the door. They locked eyes, and Feng Yiping was embarrassed. However, at this point, it was definitely better to offend one person than a group of people. Moreover, compared to these classmates who had really had enough, the professor should still be able to understand his plight.
At the moment, Feng Yiping couldn't care less. He bowed to the lectern and fled in a panic, like a dog that has lost its family and a fish that has escaped from the net. He took three steps and made two of them.
All the way, he pedaled the bike as fast as he could. He clearly heard someone calling next to him, but he pretended not to hear. When he arrived at the parking lot, he drove away as fast as he could. Today's campus was a place for him to escape from the world.
This was the first time he had so openly skipped class in the morning, and he actually felt quite excited.
He couldn't go back to school today, and there was no rush to get to the office. He made a few phone calls, picked up Liu Dandan, and they arrived at Tiananmen Square shortly after Huang Jingping and Wen Hong arrived.
Wen Hong, who was already back at work, had finally regained her vitality and energy. She looked several years younger than when Feng Yiping had met her at the Canton Fair. Looking at the square, she exclaimed happily, 'Wow, it's so beautiful!'
Yes, it really is!
The square before the National Day every year is definitely worth a visit, and it is a completely different sight from the other 11 months of the year.
Tianan Liri is one of the 16 famous views of the capital, and on this special day, it is even more beautiful than usual.
Feng Yiping noticed that the sides of the street for more than ten miles from Fuxingmen to Jianguomen on Chang'an Avenue were decorated with flowers in various styles.
The sky was the kind of blue that the people of the capital had longed for in their dreams for more than ten years. Beneath the blue sky, the solemn square of old was decorated with hundreds of thousands of pots of colourful flowers, looking brand new.
And because this year is not a major celebration and there is no military parade, the flower beds in the square are much larger and more beautiful than last year's, and in fact they look more like a park.
The fountain in the middle of the square, with its theme of 'One Heart, One Mind', is more than 70 metres in diameter. It is spectacular and unique, and attracts the most attention. It is surrounded by people taking photos, not fewer than those in front of the classic landscapes of 5A-level scenic spots.
The four smaller flower beds around it are actually not small, just smaller than the main one. 'Running towards the future' and 'Looking forward to the Olympics' are relatively simple, while 'The green call' and 'Beautiful mountains and rivers' are very distinctive. These two flower beds do not have fountains, but they have waterfalls.
Feng Yiping and Huang Jingping don't usually take many photos together, mainly because Feng Yiping doesn't like having his picture taken. Today, however, he finally let Huang Jingping have her fill of it, and Wen Hong and Liu Dandan didn't hesitate to press the shutter.
Huang Jingping took his hand, looked at the happy tourists in the square, and at the towering city wall over there, with the great man's portrait in the centre, and said, 'From now on, every year at this time, shall we come here and take a photo?'
Feng Yiping was momentarily stunned, and Huang Jingping said reproachfully, 'What's wrong? Don't you want to?'
'What do you mean?' Feng Yiping thought to himself, 'Sister, you're not born again too, are you? This is such a popular idea!'
