Chapter 297: A False Alarm?


An Zishan stared at the time on his phone tightly, and the stopwatch beat like his heartbeat, flashing and flashing.The time on the mobile phone entered 11:59, the stopwatch began to count down, An Zishan reached out and pressed his chest, his heart seemed to jump out, and he couldn't breathe with palpitations.When the number on the stopwatch jumped from 59 to the moment, An Zishan seemed to hear the bell of the new millennium ringing in his head, excited and ringing, the whole world suddenly quieted, as if time suddenly stood still, and then recovered, An Zishan didn't know if this was his delusion.How can time stand still!

An Zishan's voice that he had heard many times sounded from the bottom of his heart, "There are 13 years and 140 days left." ”After that, An Zishan clearly felt that panic and depression slowly moving away, he hurriedly turned on the light in the room, and cast his eyes on the life clock in the lower right of his vision.With the concentration of the mind, the clock of life magnified again and hung in front of the field of vision.An Zishan carefully observed the blood-colored clock, and found that the hands on it were stationary again, returning to their previous appearance, and the reading in the middle of the dial showed the words "13 years and 140 days remaining".After carefully observing for a long time, An Zishan confirmed that the clock had indeed not changed.As for the pointer, An Zishan stared at it in a daze for more than ten minutes, and finally made sure that it did not move.He breathed a sigh of relief and looked away from the clock of life.The Life Clock disappeared from front of it in an instant, returning to the lower right of its field of view, returning to the size of a watch dial.An Zishan closed his eyes and gasped deeply, he didn't notice that there was a small crack in the clock of life that happened to be covered by the hands.An Zishan lay down slowly, retracting his body into the quilt, only then did he realize that the futon was actually a little damp, and he didn't know when he broke out in a cold sweat, soaking the futon, and when he covered his body, it was even colder.Frowning slightly, An Zishan moved to the edge of the kang, staggered the wet and cold places on the mattress, and then turned the quilt over, covered his body again, and slowly lay down.Naked and wrapped in a thick futon, An Zishan stared at the stationary green paint ceiling fan hanging on the roof of the flower cloth with wide open eyes, but he was thinking in his mind that it seemed that his panic in the past few days was because of the time span of a year.I just don't know if this situation is experienced at the end of the normal year at this time, or whether it only exists at the turn of the millennium or at the turn of the century because of the particularity of the new millennium.There is no way to verify it now, and it will only be known at the end of December 2000.However, as long as it is indeed because of the leap of years and not other unpredictable crises, An Zishan is relieved, takes out his right hand from the quilt, and wipes the cold sweat from his forehead.The heartbeat also slowly returned to normal, whether it was a deep breath or a natural breath, An Zishan no longer felt the previous dullness, and finally showed a relaxed expression on his face.It looks like a false alarm!

The day after New Year's Day, An Zishan received a call from Wu Yuchuan, who smiled and said that Ctrip and Longfor had safely and smoothly survived the "Millennium Bug" crisis, and all systems were working well.An Zishan stood by the iron fence behind the teaching building, looked at the frozen river and the bare weeping willows opposite, and said with a smile: "Great, Lao Wu, we have entered a new era, the era of "1" is over, and we have entered a new millennium. ”Wu Yuchuan also smiled and said with a sigh of relief: "Yes, Master An, we have successfully stepped over." ”This year, the phone number of many cities in China is still stuck in the 7-digit code, and the mobile phone is far from being as popular and intelligent as it is more than ten years later.This was the year that Mobile was officially launched, and it was only three years later that the "Dynamic Zone" was launched.Microsoft released a new operating system, Windows 2000, in the year to replace Windows 98.Apple launched its own operating system, MacOS, a year later, when people were just starting to use ADSL to surf the Internet, and the most popular chat tool was not WeChat but OICQ.In November of that year, it had a new name called QQ, and the "penguin" may have been the earliest "Internet celebrity"."

Are you GG, or MM" is the most common accosting phrase used by young people who are new to the Internet.This year's TV series is very good-looking, Zhang Guoli pretended to be Ji Xiaolan Zhidou and Shen for a while, and incarnated as Emperor Kangxi for a private visit.Because of the popularity of Zhu Gege before, actor Zhou Jie became famous and was well-known by many people.When the audience saw the teenager Bao Qingtian in 2000, some people "questioned" why Er Kang incarnated as Bao Zheng, which made people cry and laugh.Journey to the West, which has accompanied countless post-80s generations to spend a beautiful childhood, also has a sequel this year, and the original team such as Liu Xiaolingtong reunited, bringing a wave of memories to kill, while also standing at the top of the ratings.In the Chinese music scene in 2000, many newcomers emerged.Jay Chou released his debut album Jay, with a cutting-edge music style and a definition of pop.The darkness and courage made Stefanie Sun and Liang Jingru become national idols.There are also a lot of children born in 2000, people want to touch the joy of the new millennium, give birth to a "millennial baby", even the name is very special, eighteen years later, one of them is widely known, he is called Yi Yang Qianxi.This year, the capital shouted the slogan of "New Beijing, New Olympics" and made every effort to bid for the 2008 Olympic Games.It was also the year that the 1998 World Cup champions, France, continued their hot form and won the Champions League.It was also from then that we became acquainted with Zinedine Zidane, Raul, Figo.In the same year, the domestic railway increased its speed on a large scale for the third time, and the T-shaped crown of the express train appeared in the "four vertical and two horizontal" railway network.China's first national highway trunk line, the Beijing-Shanghai Expressway, is also open to traffic, connecting North China and East China.Time flies like a shuttle, and the past is no longer traceable, but the charm of time lies precisely in the fact that those earth-shaking changes have quietly melted into time and constituted our new life.Of course, all this is not entirely true for An Zishan now, and the past is only waiting for him to recall.After all, this year, in the course of his entire life, he left a strong mark and met a girl who was related to his life.It's just that after being reborn, he seems to have other options and ideas.Tuesday, 4 January 2000, the weather was cloudy and the north wind was howling.The biting cold wind and dry air invaded the small city of Lianshan County, and the expansion and renovation of Yudu Longhu Middle School No. 1 and No. 2 Middle School has long been halted until the weather warms up next year.As for the township merger, the township merger in Lianshan County has ended, but it does not seem to have any impact on the lives of ordinary people, and everyone still has the name of the past in their mouths, such as Shanyang Township.But the jobs and projects brought about by the township merger have left the vast majority of construction companies in Lianshan County with the exception of the big brother Lianshan Construction Company, a once-brilliant state-owned construction company that collapsed before the turn of the millennium.After being acquired by Yudu Longhu, Lianshan County Construction Company was merged into Longfor Lianshan Branch, and the employees and management of the original Lianshan Construction Company were divided into three constructions, and the full name was the third construction team of Longfor Lianshan Branch.Feng Ji was appointed as the general manager of the third construction, and his position and salary were the same as Tang Chuan of the first construction and Liang Bo of the second construction.After the restructuring, the Lianshan Construction Company has undergone changes from the inside out, exuding vitality, and Wu Yuchuan has invested more than 2 million old machines to replace.Not only that, but he also arranged for Tang Chuan to carry out construction technology upgrading training for the newly established Sanjian, and the upgraded Sanjian took over all the projects of the original Lianshan Construction Company, and was responsible for the docking of all projects after the merger of townships and towns.Overnight, Lianshan County's private construction giants Aohua, Kwun Tong and Zhisheng all relied on the snort of Sanjian, or the snort of Feng Ji, whose status and influence not only did not decline after the bankruptcy of Lianshan Construction Company, but rose again.As a result, because of the bankruptcy of Lianshan Construction Company, the contemptuous eyes of him inside and outside instantly became more hot and flattering.At the site of the original Lianshan Construction Company, the sign at the gate has been replaced by the third construction team of Longfor Lianshan Branch, and all the previous slogans and related content have been replaced with Longfor-related content.At this time, in addition to the courtyard, the building is still the appearance of the former Lianshan Construction Company, and all the other signs of the character of the Lianshan Construction Company can no longer be found.Feng Ji stood in his previous office, looking at the bustling courtyard downstairs, like the crowd of people like the New Year, sighing deeply, a batch of new machines and equipment purchased by Longfor today were delivered, all of which are the most advanced equipment in the current domestic construction industry.Many employees have never seen it, and they are excited to see the brand-new machinery and equipment, and everyone feels that this day seems to be different.Longfor is willing to spend money to upgrade machinery and equipment, which shows that it has confidence and ideas for the development of the enterprise.Longfor has ideas, and these builders who once survived under the system have confidence in their future life and work, and they can rest assured that they will not be abandoned.Wu Yuchuan fulfilled his promise with practical actions, Feng Ji's eyes were complex and admiring, just this one thing, Wu Yuchuan gained the hearts of the people, which was much better than when he came to make a pacifying speech to all the employees.After all, no matter how high-sounding it is, it is not true and credible.
