Chapter 6: Napping

Cheng Li sat crouched on the sofa with his hands on his knees, holding the remote control and constantly changing the channel, molesting the TV and flashing his eyes.

“Leigh, Leigh.”

Cheng Ming symbolically shouted a few words.

Cheng Li deliberately turned up the volume of the TV and pretended not to hear it, as if he was still angry.

Cheng Ming was completely confused as to why his sister was angry, he couldn’t handle a twenty-seven year old sister, how could he even handle a thirteen year old sister?

Cheng Ming felt the need to go and be quiet and properly integrate himself into the identity of his brother.

The post-rebirth him and the pre-rebirth him, even if his appearance was exactly the same, his soul had fifteen more years of experience and precipitation, and his demeanor was definitely all different, perhaps even his way of speaking and his habit of tuning his words had changed.

Cheng Ming pushed open the door to go back to his bedroom, his room used to be his dad’s study.

Because of the first year of junior high school, Cheng Ming’s male and female consciousness increased, coupled with the adolescent pretentiousness and physiological reactions, feel that he can no longer sleep with his sister in the same room in the same bed to sleep.

By volunteering to move to the study and sleep there, he’d taken over the place, and Dad would just come to his room occasionally to study where the stocks were going.

Mom and Dad, however, initially thought that Cheng Ming had made a request because he wanted to play with the computer.

But their siblings really should have some clear boundaries at this age and not continue to sleep in the same room.

After Cheng Ming moved to the study room to sleep, mom and dad in the evening surprise check Cheng Ming room a few times, found that not in stealing play computer, his academic performance did not decline, so no longer care about him.

It was my sister who ignored her for a month because he moved to the den to sleep, and only forgave him afterward when he took her to the playroom to play catch and pin a bunny ragdoll on her.

Cheng Ming pressed down the mainframe’s power on button, this time it was a successful electric light to turn on, and the familiar sound of the windows login interface rang in his ears.

Cheng Ming opened the notepad in his computer and started tapping the keyboard.

First, guard the home, take care of your sister, and keep Mom and Dad from getting divorced.

But this whole thing is predicated on the fact that Dad’s company’s financial chain isn’t broken or bankrupt.

Part of the reason for Mom and Dad’s divorce was emotional problems, and the other reason was that Dad didn’t want to drag Mom and his sister down.

Otherwise the house will be taken against the debt and the family will have to live there in the old mansion.

Dad directly out of the household, on this point, he still has a head of the family to bear, originally mom also wanted to Cheng Ming custody also get together, dad said: “is a man with me to suffer.”

Dad’s company will go bankrupt because of a mole within the company, Dad’s partner and brother Ye Binsong independent out to do it alone.

Not only did they pull the engineering team from the company, but they also rolled up the cash.

Resulting in the current house can not be handed over in a timely manner, but also owed the wages of migrant workers, coupled with the bank debt collection, the day of the sale of the building and people jumped off the building, a variety of chain reaction, the dad tired to cope with the overnight from the boss to become a rogue.

Second, not to let the tragedy of Lin Jingyi’s family repeat itself.

But it’s not easy to get Uncle Lin to give up his job at the URA. Dad tried to drag Uncle Lin down to the sea to do business with him back in the day, but it turned out that Uncle Lin still wanted to go further with the URA and refused.

But there’s still two years before Uncle Lin’s accident, so there’s no rush for now.

The third is to make money, a lot of money, and the world is divided into things that can be solved with money, and things that can’t be solved with money.

Already poor and scared, Cheng Ming felt insecure without money.

There are many ways to make money, and the reborn Cheng Ming has clairvoyance. If you can’t ride the wind, it’s not even as good as a pig on the wind, or even buy a few sets of houses to cantonize, so that you can be a high-powered rent-a-boo in the future.

But Cheng Ming has too many limitations, the first is the problem of the capital to start a business, now the price of housing is cheap, and even cheaper is money, but where do you get the money to buy a house?

Then there’s the age issue. I’m afraid not many people would believe anything a 15 or 16 year old says.

And since Cheng Ming wanted to make a quick buck, he had to drum something up before the midterm.

Do a portal navigation site, waiting for Baidu Google to buy?

But this will have to wait for Baidu listing and Google’s entry into the domestic market, which is at least two or three years later.

If you want to talk about fast money, buying lottery tickets should be the fastest.

Unfortunately, Cheng Ming didn’t bother to memorize any lottery numbers, and getting rich overnight became a luxury.

Thinking about the fact that many projects would take years to see results, Cheng Ming turned off his notepad and his eyes fell on the online game “Millennium” on the computer screen.

When it comes to online gaming, it has actually been in its infancy in China since 2000, with King of Kings, Network Three Kingdoms, Stone Age, and the just-released martial arts online game Millennium.

Domestic gamers who grew up with martial arts novels fell in love with Millennium as soon as they saw it, including Cheng Ming.

In September of this year, Hot Blooded Saga began public beta testing, leaving a colorful mark in the history of online gaming.

From online games to page games to handheld games, ‘shit games’ have been taking up players’ time and money, and players are cursing and swearing while still giving their money to shit games.

Domestic single-player market has been in the doldrums, the reasons for this are complex, the low purchasing power of players, rampant piracy, foreign masterpieces and free to play, developers hard power and foreign manufacturers also have a huge gap.

Cheng Ming has not only built legendary private services, but also made private services for many classic games.

On the one hand, it’s nostalgia for himself and some of the older players, and on the other hand, it’s a way to make some pocket money for himself.

But the private service has to ‘run away’ after operating for a while. Otherwise, they will be targeted by the licensed operators, and they have to hack their own servers often to crash them, which is sort of a tacit understanding among peers.

Cheng Ming didn’t want to take a lawsuit and wait for some time to pass before he popped up, did his work for a while and then disappeared into obscurity.

“Alas ……”

Cheng Ming scratched his head.

Thinking about it, it seems like there’s something to be said for doing your old hangouts.

In addition to the private service business, Cheng Ming’s other job is to make plug-ins and scripts for handheld games.

With the exception of online games that have just come out, online games on the market that have been on sale for a long time already have commercially available plug-ins.

Cheng Ming felt that he had no problem taking a piece of the pie from them with his latter-day vision and ability.

Plug-ins will certainly speed up the death of the game, but if Cheng Ming doesn’t do it, others will do it, and plug-ins are still a gray-land thing now, so wait a year or two before you start fixing plug-ins, or even have people arrested to eat prison food.

Just do one job and leave.

You can’t stick around, let alone wait to die. The world is all about bracing the bold and starving the timid.

It would be laughable to live a new life and do nothing and change nothing.

With his mind made up, Cheng Ming shut down his computer and went to the living room, where the TV was playing a shopping commercial at a volume so loud that it stung his eardrums.

Cheng Li had already fallen asleep on the sofa, her small body shrunk into a ball, grasping the remote control in her hand, making even breathing sounds, and it was really thanks to her that she could fall asleep against such a loud noise.

Cheng Ming first grabbed the remote control from her and turned the volume back to normal before turning off the TV.

It was still early and there was still some time before afternoon classes.

Cheng Ming went and got a thin blanket to cover Cheng Li, while he himself sat on his butt on the cold floor with his back against the sofa, using his body as a guardrail to prevent his sister from rolling off the sofa.

Cheng Ming recalled the game’s plug-in code, pondered which industry he would invest in after earning a bucket of money, and surprisingly, he just tilted his head and fell into a deep sleep.

The two siblings’ foreheads were pressed against each other, their hair intertwined and their breaths mingled in a harmonious and cozy scene.
