Qin Hongfei saw him and realized that it was already morning. She put down her tools, asked him to wait, washed her face, and followed him.
The young man was called Xing Li, and asked her: “You won’t bring tools?”
Qin Hongfei shook her head and said: “No, it’s just recovering data.”
Xing Li was worried, thinking that she was different from those masters, who all brought a lot of tools.
In the Department of Education…
Father Xing frowned, smoked one cigarette after another, and looked at the door from time to time: “Is Xiao Li here?”
Yesterday, his son said that he found someone who could recover the computer data, and his wife also said that the computer master had great skills.
Father Xing didn’t dare to hold out hope, because he had found a computer master who was already famous in the local area. He was Master Li. It was also by chance that the other party owed a favor to a wealthy family in the local area. After retirement, he lived here and worked as a technical master for the other party’s Internet café. This person said that there was no hope of recovering the data, but he could still come to try it for free if Father Xing wanted to.
For free? This made Father Xing hesitate. There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world. There was always a price to pay. Asking for money was a small matter, but owing a favor was a big matter.
The other party runs an Internet café. Rumors spread, that they accept underage customers from time to time.
Father Xing thought about it and decided to let his son try it first. As a result, while waiting there, his secretary came in and said, “Director, Mr. Li brought Master Chen to check the computer for you.”
Father Xing couldn’t help but say: “Xiao Li is very active.”
It’s not good to hit a smiling person, and since people have come to his door, they can’t be driven out. He could only politely invite them in.
Xiao Li was a young man in his thirties. The master he brought in was about fifty years old. His surname was Chen. He had gray hair and a lame leg. He didn’t say anything polite and said directly: “Mr. Xing, let me take a look at the computer first.”
Father Xing liked this kind of no-nonsense talk, so he took him to the computer and said: “Please take a look.”
Master Chen pointed at the computer and said: “This computer configuration is a bit old, and it often freezes…”
“It needs to be repaired. If Mr. Xing needs it, you can contact me. I can come to your home for free.”
“If I need it, I will.” Father Xing also agreed casually.
Master Chen heard that he was absent-minded, but he didn’t care. If he didn’t show his skills, how could the other party trust him? If he could get a relationship with Mr. Xing, they could better gain a foothold and make money on Qinhuai Street.
Thinking about it, he operated the computer. After about ten minutes, he shook his head with a trace of regret.
Father Xing’s heart sank: “Master Chen, can’t it be restored?”
Master Chen nodded and said with great confidence and regret: “This machine is too old, the configuration is not good, and the lost data has been formatted and turned into a pile of data. Even if my teacher is here, there is nothing he can do.”
Master Chen’s teacher was Old Master Li, a computer researcher. What kind of identity is this? Father Xing doesn’t know much about it, but he knows that he is awesome!
Even the teacher couldn’t do it, so there was probably no hope of recovering the data.
“Mr. Xing, Xiao Li brought the repairman here.” The secretary came in and said, with a somewhat subtle look.
“Besides me, did Mr. Xing hire someone else?” Master Chen guessed it immediately, but he was not unhappy. He just shook his head smiled and said confidently, “In the whole of Qinhuai Street, I can say that no one knows more about computers than me. I can’t recover, so it’s useless to find other people. How much does the other party charge? If it’s very high, Mr. Xing should be careful. I heard that there are often some unknown gods and ghosts recently, pretending to be technicians to cheat money.”
Qin Hongfei came in and happened to hear this. She couldn’t help but glance at the top of Master Chen’s head. His hair was not bald from programming, he was either a genius or a mediocre person!
