Chapter 602: The car went online

Chapter 602: Chapter 602: The car went online On New Year's Day, there was a mix of joy and impatience on the campus.

The reasons were manifold. Everyone knew why the senior students were impatient, except for those who were preparing to continue their postgraduate studies, this would be their last New Year's Day on campus.

Especially for those who had not yet found a job at this time, the impatience in their hearts at this moment was imaginable.

Even those students who have already found a place to go will feel a sense of nostalgia. It is true that you only realise the value of what you have when you lose it. As they are about to enter the society they have longed for so much, they will always have a little bit of nostalgia for the place where they have spent almost four years, and every day they stay there is a day less.

They will miss the campus that has carried their best years, the time when they were all dressed in white, the brothers sleeping in the upper bunks, and even more so the girls in their flowing white dresses.

As for the first-year students, they still have three years to go before graduation, so they have no time to worry about the impatience and nostalgia of their seniors. At the end of the year, they have to worry about the upcoming final exams, but that is only their second concern.

Their biggest concern is actually similar to that of their seniors: how to find a partner!

In different eras, we have different pursuits. For example, 'in the 1950s, people worked as labourers; in the 1960s, they went to the army; in the 1970s, they went to the countryside; and in the 1980s, they went into business.'

But no matter what era it is, there is one thing that is as constant as a diamond: if you don't fall in love while you're at university, you'll definitely regret it for the rest of your life.

As the foreign poets and writers say, 'Life is precious, but love is more precious.'

In this regard, Gao Heng set a good example on Christmas Eve. Last night, similar scenes were played out one after the other on campus, and later alarmed the security department because so many candles posed a fire hazard.

Therefore, many people turned to thinking about seizing the opportunity of holding the New Year's Eve party tonight to confess their love to the girl of their dreams.

And New Year's Day was also a big day for Feng Yiping, as Jiasheng Automobile's website officially launched today!

He even spent the New Year's Eve in the office.

As for the launch celebration, Cui Yunling, who had heard about some pioneering companies in the science and technology park, had long suggested a grand ceremony in the Great Hall of the People. It was a good idea, after all, a website needs to attract attention.

But he didn't think about it. In the last few days of the year, it would just be a waste of money. The Great Hall of the People would not be rented, as it is now in the peak period for hosting various state events.

In the end, the address of the press conference was still held in the lobby of the main building of the Science and Technology Park.

In fact, a lot of work had already been done in advance. In the past fortnight, from the central government to local governments, and in many newspapers, there had been lengthy reports about the imminent launch of the country's first professional automotive website.

This company, which had not yet gone online, had already become a major customer of Baidu, which had just been established at the beginning of the year in the same Zhongguancun district. When netizens searched on Baidu, as long as they entered words like 'cars', the top result displayed was Jiasheng Car Network.

The major portals were originally very reluctant to report on such competitor-related information, but Feng Yiping waved a cheque to open the way. They, who were already having a hard time, thought, 'We are being generous,' and also joined the ranks of those preheating up for the car network.

Thanks to the help of the Science and Technology Park and the group's own efforts, the launch conference also invited representatives from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Science and Technology and other relevant ministries and commissions, as well as some leaders of the municipal party committee and municipal government of the capital, and some representatives of organisations such as the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers.

There was no way around it. At similar occasions, the Chinese people always feel that something is not quite right without the presence of some leaders.

What was more present at the scene were Zhongguancun peers. At a time when several major portals were struggling to survive and related industries were in decline, the high-profile establishment of an Internet company was no less than a shot in the arm for them.

There was also the Zhongmin Association, which had once invited Feng Yiping to give a speech, and many of its member units also came to congratulate them.

President Cui Yunling really wanted to show off in such a scene, because it was a kind of qualification, wasn't it? However, although he was on the stage, he stood behind Jin Ling, who Feng Yiping had specially recalled, to deliver the speech, so naturally he didn't get his turn.

People in the industry just knew that Cui Yunling was the person in charge of the website, and the majority of netizens didn't have to remember the name of the president of the first professional automobile website in China. Besides, a beautiful woman always attracted more attention than an older man.

At the lively press conference, Feng Yiping did not appear on stage, but when he accompanied the leaders on their inspection afterwards, he walked in the front line. This was the arrangement of the group and also the meaning of the Science and Technology Park. What could be more impressive to the leaders than the fact that a second-year student at the university had founded such a high-tech company?

However, as soon as they heard his name, several leaders were actually impressed. 'Classmate Feng Yiping? I know you,'

The leaders knew him, and apart from his book, the main reason was probably because of his close encounter with the Premier.

At the end of the leaders' inspection, the number had reached nearly 600,000!

It seems that the number of visitors on the first day of going online exceeded the 1 million mark, which was not a dream. Either the leaders who inspected the site did not know the significance of this number, or their secretaries would have inquired about it. So, when Feng Yiping was saying goodbye, the leaders more or less gave him a few words of encouragement.

After sending off this wave of leaders, Feng Yiping had barely had a chance to catch his breath when he received another notice that the headmaster was coming to inspect the site.

Although the president and secretary had met Feng Yiping at the State Guesthouse, this was the first time they had visited his company.

They inspected the premises in detail and asked professional questions about the industry outlook and trends, profit models, competitors, etc. In the office, the leaders were interested to try out the website and were very satisfied with the interface and content.

'Not bad, this is the first time I've heard that there are so many brands of cars,' the president said with a smile.

The secretary put down the mouse and said, 'Yiping, you stay for a moment, we need to discuss something with you,'

After the unrelated people left, Feng Yiping closed the office door. Inside were only the principal, the secretary, the high-ranking Communist Youth League official they had met for the first time, and the college's vice president Zhao. "What are the leaders" instructions?'

The secretary smiled and said, 'Good news, Feng Yiping, the college has decided to apply for the 2001 Chinese Youth May Fourth Medal for you,'

'The Chinese Youth May Fourth Medal?' Feng Yiping repeated, not having the slightest idea what this award was. Searᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

'Put simply, it is the highest honour awarded to young people by the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League and the All-China Youth Federation,' the senior Communist official explained.

'No, I can't,' the honest Feng Yiping kept shaking his head. "I don't deserve this title, and besides, I'm still too young,'

'Haha," the leaders laughed, 'based on your abilities, you are perfectly qualified to win this honour for yourself and your university,'

'There is no precedent for this. The year before last, a 22-year-old sophomore won this honour. The Youth League Committee compared his story to yours and found that you are better than him in every way.

Last year, a 21-year-old national team member also won this honour. You will be 21 next year, so your worries are completely unfounded,' said the senior Youth League official.

'Yes, you don't know about these things. We still have other awards to help you apply for, such as the China Youth Science and Technology Innovation Award. With your current achievements, you are also fully eligible to apply,' said the secretary in charge of party affairs.

The application and competition for various awards each year is also a key focus of the secretary's work, and also the focus of their work as they are assessed by their superiors.

'However, the May Fourth Medal is still the most prestigious, so let's first strive to win this honour,'

Sure enough, Feng Yiping did not hesitate at all, 'Thank you all for your love and cultivation. What do you need me to do?'
