MTL - Reborn Capital Empire-Chapter 8 quit

Chapter 8 Exit

…

Originally, he felt that he was an old bookworm who had read novels for more than ten years, and was proficient in various routines; coupled with his background in writing, his writing was also excellent; right.

But the gap between ideal and reality tells Guo Shouyun, don't put too much expectations on life!

Hit the street, hit the street again!

Fortunately, Guo Shouyun was born with a kind of tenacity that would never give up until his goal was achieved, and he just supported him in his efforts for more than six years. After more than six years of tempering, he finally combined his writing with the routines of online novels, and learned how to set up suspense, how to control the rhythm, how to mobilize readers' emotions, and how to arrange a series of writing skills such as climax.

In the past six years, in addition to browsing a large number of best-selling books on the Internet, he has also purchased thousands of books on politics, military, finance, literature, curiosity and romance to enrich his knowledge reserve.

Through these efforts, he finally ushered in his own outbreak half a year before his rebirth.

Now, despite being reborn, all his previous grades have been reset to zero. But the things written down in the head, the knowledge in the hands has not been forgotten. Coupled with the integration of Bruce Guo's memory, after allowing him to understand the American way of thinking, reading habits and preferences, he is not afraid that no one will read what he writes.

What's more, the content he writes is time-tested bestsellers, popular movies and TV series, which is an extra layer of protection.

Of course, it's impossible for him to remember every detail of the original books and movies. However, Guo Shouyun remembers the main line of the story and the wonderful key plots in it very clearly, which is especially important for writing.

As long as there is a main line and a key plot, and if you simply add branches and leaves, Guo Shouyun will feel that he will not be worse than the original author.

After thinking about it, Guo Shouyun opened the folder of "Island Bookstore", which was a novel he had just read before his rebirth, and he still remembered most of the contents. Coupled with its shortest length, Guo Shouyun decided to finish it first.

Anyone who has written a novel knows that as long as the main line of the story is clear, the writing speed is very fast. Although Guo Shouyun couldn't match the hand speed of those awesome people, but with his full attention, he could code six or seven thousand words in an hour when he was in excellent condition. However, there is no smart input right now. In the case that every character is knocked by hand, the speed is abruptly slowed by half.

But this is already very good.

When people are concentrating, they are always unaware of the passage of time. Almost in the blink of an eye, the sky outside had already darkened.

"Dong dong...!"

"Please come in!"

Martin Alexander pushed open the door and walked in.

"Bruce, everyone is off work, shall we go too?"

"wait a second!"

After Guo Shouyun saved the chapters he had written, he closed the computer and put it in the bag next to him.

"Are you still going to bring the computer back?"

"Well, there's still some work to do!" Guo Shouyun changed the subject, "Let's go, I'm hungry."

"I still have cheesecake I bought at noon, why don't you eat some first?"

"No, I want to eat the broccoli beef in the school cafeteria tonight."

Because the two were the last to leave, they were also responsible for the task of turning off the lights.

After driving back to school and having dinner, it was already 9:30 pm. According to Guo Shouyun's work and rest habits, he would go to bed at 10:30 and get up at 6:00 in the morning. This is the amount of sleep a middle-aged person needs to maintain his energy and physical health during the day.

This habit that has been cultivated for many years, even if Guo Shouyun is now reborn and has a healthy body of 19 years old, it has not changed.

Because he had a room of his own, it did not surprise Martin Alexander. After getting up at six o'clock, according to Guo Shouyun's habit, he had to jog for half an hour, but there was no treadmill in his dormitory at this time. But fortunately, as the main guard of the basketball team, there is no shortage of sportswear in his room.

After changing into an Adidas outfit, Guo Shouyun pushed open the door and walked out lightly. On the other side, Martin's door was tightly closed, and a snoring could be vaguely heard from it. Obviously, this guy was still sleeping soundly.

Guo Shouyun didn't mean to disturb his dream, he walked through the porch, opened the door, turned around and walked out. The hallway is quiet. He also understands that despite the differences between American and Chinese college life, there are many similarities. For example: Everyone is a night owl. In Chinese universities, people may stay late playing games and watching football matches. Here, in addition to basketball and games, add a party!

Americans seem to like this kind of lively things by nature, and they have one almost every Saturday and Sunday. If you encounter anything happy, it is not to be missed. But maybe because of the relationship between personality and writing major, even if Guo Shouyun received Bruce Guo's memory, he still had no idea about the party.

Shaking his head, after expelling the extra thoughts in his mind, after arranging his clothes, Guo Shouyun walked downstairs.

San Francisco is close to the eastern Pacific Ocean and has a Mediterranean climate. Although it is mid-April, the weather is not too cold. In addition, like him, there are many people in the university who like to get up early to exercise. When Guo Shouyun was breathing the fresh air and jogging along the tree-lined road, there was no shortage of companions around him.

"Bruce?"

Hearing the sound, Guo Shouyun subconsciously turned his head to look, when a middle-aged white man in gray sportswear ran over.

"Coach Dawkins?"

Johnny Dawkins, head coach of the Stanford University basketball team. Once at Duke University, he served as an assistant coach for the famous old coach K in the American basketball world for ten years, and later served as the team director of the American Basketball Dream Team. He is well-known in the American basketball world, and his coaching ability is extraordinary.

"Looks like you're all right!"

Johnny Dawkins looked up and down and laughed.

"Just got out of the hospital a few days ago!"

"I know!" Dawkins nodded with a look of pity on his face, "If you weren't injured and hospitalized, we wouldn't have lost to Berkeley in the last March Madness 'Bay Area Derby'. It's gone!"

In NCAA basketball, there are many rivals. For example, the famous North Carolina and Duke, the showdown between these two basketball giants can attract the attention of the United States every year, and its popularity is no worse than the NBA championship competition. The Stanford University Cardinals vs the UC Berkeley Golden State Bears won the "Bay Area Derby", although it is not as good as the Duke North Carolina battle, but it is equally high-profile.

Stanford University represents the top private university in the United States, while Berkeley is known as the best public university in the United States. The competition between them is regarded by Americans as a classic showdown between private universities and public universities.

"Coach, we still have many opportunities in the future!"

"Not bad!" Johnny Dawkins nodded in agreement, "I've already applied for more basketball funding from the principal, and I'll definitely be able to dig some good seedlings from high school this year. Plus you experienced Veteran players, we will definitely reach the Sweet Sixteen next year!"

Looking at the confident Johnny Dawkins, Guo Shouyun hesitated for a while, but finally did not intend to hide it any more.

"Coach Dawkins, I'm so sorry. I'm afraid I'm quitting the basketball team!"

"what?"

Shocked, Johnny Dawkins could not help but stop.

"Are you serious?"

After digesting for a while, Dawkins hurriedly asked.

Guo Shouyun nodded affirmatively.

"Why? You're only a junior now! Are you planning to enter the NBA draft?"

As the main point guard of the Stanford Cardinals, a strong NCAA basketball team, Bruce Guo's strength in the entire league is at the top level, and many agents have approached him. That's what Johnny Dawkins knew too.

"No, I don't plan to enter the NBA. The reason I quit the basketball team is mainly because the company I founded has entered a stage of rapid development. Time and energy do not allow me to take care of basketball anymore." Guo Shouyun shook his head.

Without his 20 years of knowledge, Guo Shouyun might have inherited Bruce Guo's good body and basketball skills and entered the NBA. But now he clearly has no such interest.

Guo Shouyun's academic performance, Dawkins certainly understands, and it is not too strange for his choice.

"It seems that this summer vacation, I will have a headache for the team's point guard again!"

Looking at Guo Shouyun's firm eyes, Johnny Dawkins couldn't help sighing.

"…Bruce, I respect your decision. As your coach, I wish you success in your business."

"thanks!"

"Remember to visit the basketball team often in the future, this is always your home!"

"must!"

After separating from Johnny Dawkins, Guo Shouyun finished his 30 minutes of running, then went to the restaurant to buy two breakfasts to take back to the dormitory.

After a simple wash, I called Martin Alexander, who was sleeping in bed, and after eating, the two drove to the company together.

Turn over the development of the LinkedIn website to Martin, and the company's administration has Tim George. In addition, the company's current scale is not large, so Guo Shouyun, who is only responsible for strategic decision-making, has plenty of free time.

And this abundant time was basically used by him to write novels. This is also the only way he can think of at the moment that can bring him a lot of wealth.

But aside from "Pirates of the Caribbean," "Fifty Shades of Grey," and "Island Bookstore," he writes mostly storylines.

"The Hunger Games", "The Big Bang Theory", and "The Ferryman" may be forgotten as time goes by. As long as it is the novels, TV series, movies, variety shows, games, etc. he has read, there are still impressions in his mind. , recorded in outline form.

Without emotional turmoil, Guo Shouyun, who was working hard for the future, lived a full and busy life. After Martin developed the address book uploading and group renting functions, the registered users of LinkedIn finally grew rapidly. It has tripled in just half a month.

However, when the time came to the end of April, Guo Shouyun temporarily ignored LinkedIn.
