"Hello, is this the Gan City Telecommunications Bureau?"
"Hello, may I know what business you need?"
"I need to rent a server from your telecommunications company and would like to discuss the details with you. However, I don't know where you are doing this business? "
"Where are you now?"
"I'm on my way to Gan City."
"Give me a call when you arrive at the telecommunications bureau. I'll come and pick you up."
"Okay."
The telecommunications bureau's server rental business was not like dealing with broadband. It could be done in the main hall.
Normally, the main hall would not accept such a business.
After all, this business was not for ordinary people. It was for individuals, so the demand was relatively small.
In order to save time, Chen Yu booked a car from Shin Fung and headed straight to Gan City.
…
"Xu Jia, congratulations, congratulations, you have another business deal."
"What are you congratulating me for? It's been half a month, and you only have one business. How can it be compared to your broadband business? Recently, there have been hundreds of business every day. "
"We do have a lot of broadband business, but the commission is low. How can it be compared to your high commission?"
"It's useless even if the commission is high. Look, the previous deals I took were all small ones. They were all small websites. Our server can manage dozens of websites."
Xu Jia sighed.
She finally understood. The entire Gan City Telecommunications Bureau's server probably would not be able to be rented out in three years.
There was no choice.
Gan City was located in the central region. Some high-tech companies did not even set up their businesses in Gan City.
Some local companies in Gan City could only set up a small website at most. They did not need many servers at all.
Sometimes, one server could even manage dozens of websites.
After all, the IP traffic of these websites was very small. Some only had a few dozen IP visits a day.
Don't ask why there were so few.
These websites were not really used. They were just there to report to the higher-ups that they had created a website.
However, even though she sighed, she still received a deal.
"I'm here."
"Okay, I'll come and pick you up."
At the entrance of the telecommunications bureau, Xu Jia saw Chen Yu, who had just arrived in Gan City.
However, when she saw Chen Yu, Xu Jia was a little depressed.
He looked like a high school student. He probably only created a small forum or something.
She didn't even know how much she had charged Chen Yu for such a business.
If his bid was too high, he would probably leave at any moment. If his bid was too low, he wouldn't be able to earn any money at all.
"Student, do you want to rent our server?"
"Yes, I've set up a website and would like to rent your server."
"Sure, we have a package here. The cost of renting our server for a year is 5,000 yuan."
The year 2001 couldn't be compared to later years.
In the future, cloud servers would appear. For some small websites, it would only cost a few hundred yuan a year.
However, Lenovo's ADSL fees were not low, and it was normal for it to cost 5,000 RMB a year.
Of course, this was just an entry-level server.
No, it wasn't just a beginner.
Such a server would not only serve one person, but many.
Chen Yu glanced at the list Xu Jia handed over, then put it aside and asked, "Do you have a blade server?"
"Blade server?"
Xu Jia was a little surprised. The so-called blade server referred to a rack-type chassis that could insert multiple card-type server units to achieve high availability and high density. It was specially designed for special application industries and high-density computer environments. Its main structure was a large main chassis, and many "blades" could be inserted inside. Each "blade" was actually a system motherboard.
"You need a blade server?"
"Yes, and there's more than one."
"This student, blade servers are expensive to rent. Generally, ordinary servers will do. I want to ask, how many IP streams do you have on your website? "
"About two million."
"Two million."
Xu Jia's eyes were about to pop out.
How come Gan City had such a large website? How come she didn't know?
"May I know the name of your website?"
"5173. com. Previously, our server was in Wu Province, but now I want to transfer it to Gan City. "
"5173. com. Oh my god, your website is 5173. com. I didn't expect 5173. com to be Gan City's website."
Although Xu Jia didn't play games.
Xu Jia had some impressions of the top 100 websites in the country.
She didn't expect Gan City to have such a large website in the country.
"Uh, what's wrong?"
"No, nothing."
Xu Jia took three deep breaths. She knew that she had won the lottery this time.
"With 5173. com's traffic, you do need a server unit made up of blade servers. Our server room has recently received a batch of blade servers. They can definitely meet your needs. "
"Can I take a look at your server room?"
"Of course."
For such a large client, such a small request could be satisfied.
Xu Jia brought Chen Yu to the Gan City Telecommunications Department's server room.
"Oh right, may I know your name?"
"My surname is Chen."
"Boss Chen, my name is Xu Jia. This is my business card. If you need anything in the future, you can call me at any time."
Xu Jia gave Chen Yu a business card, then introduced to Chen Yu, "Boss Chen, this is our server room. Don't worry, our server room is monitored 24 hours a day, and the room temperature is always kept below 20 degrees. Also, we have specially hired technicians to maintain the server room at all times. Also, with our telecommunications technology, our security is second to none in the country. Other than that, we can also provide you with independent fiber optics to give you the fastest access. Of course, because your website is a large website in the country, the internet environment is different from place to place. Some use telecommunications, some use internet. Our telecommunications server room can also provide you with multi-line access to satisfy all users in the country … "
Although Xu Jia had just graduated from university, her professional skills were not bad. She didn't have the opportunity before, but now that she had such a large client, Xu Jia tried her best to sell the benefits of renting their telecommunications server room.
"Not bad."
Chen Yu looked around and realized that although Gan City was not as developed as the coastal areas, the telecommunications server room configuration was still relatively high. This might have something to do with the country's recent promotion of the development of internet files. Suddenly, even in the central area, many telecommunications companies increased their configuration.
"Oh right, how much does it cost to rent your server room?"
"If it's just a blade server room, it's not expensive. It's only a few tens of thousands a year. But since your website has so many visitors, you can only use the server room. "This way, the price might be a little high. I can calculate it for you."
"Okay."
Xu Jia took out her calculator. After ten minutes, Xu Jia reported a number. "Because you're our big client, we'll give you a discount. Two hundred thousand a month."
"Two hundred thousand a month. That's too expensive."
Chen Yu frowned.
Martial arts universities were not that expensive.
However, martial arts universities offered a favor, which was equivalent to half rent and half free.
Even so, martial arts universities would not let him take over.
"Boss Chen, I've calculated for you just now. With your 5173 network's IP traffic, we'll need at least 30 servers to ensure your smooth operation. It might not even be enough. "As you know, we'll have to invest at least tens of millions in just these servers alone."
"Manager Xu, I've taken a look just now. Many servers in your telecommunications server room aren't running. Just leaving them here for a year is a huge loss. "
"This …"
Xu Jia regretted bringing Chen Yu to the server room.
That was indeed the case.
Aside from Gan City, there were plenty of servers in many telecommunications rooms in the country that were empty.
It was not that they did not want to run them. It was just that there were no big clients to take orders.
For some small orders and websites, sometimes one server was enough to run dozens of them.
Not all places were like Shen City and Bei City, where there were so many high-tech internet companies.
In a place like Gan City, they were lucky today. Without 5173, Gan City might not even be able to rent out these servers in ten years.
"Boss Chen, please wait for a moment. I'll ask for instructions from the higher-ups."
If he let go of such a big client, his heart would bleed.
