When Li Juan was called before Li Ye, she was still completely bewildered. But when Li Ye asked her a question, she immediately composed herself.
"Juan, you studied microelectronics. Do you know anything about BBS—the Bulletin Board System?"
"I know BBS. It can be considered an electronic message board, or a technology for building computer communication platforms. Engineer Ni mentioned it to me before."
"If I asked you to build a Chinese-language communication platform based on BBS, could you do it?"
"This..."
Li Juan hesitated, then said, "If I built it myself, it might take some time. If I could find a few people to work with me, it would be much easier."
"Of course you'll have people working with you. From now on, you won't just be someone who does the work—you'll be a leader too."
Once Li Ye had confirmed that it was feasible, he directly arranged things. "I'll give you a list of technical requirements later. Summarize how they can be implemented. When you go to Sister-in-law Pan's place this Sunday, discuss this with her."
Li Juan said in surprise, "I'm going to discuss this with President Pan? I... am I reporting on my work?"
Li Ye shook his head. "I figure she won't understand it either, so explain it to her when you get there, then take on the job of building this BBS communication platform. Li Ying and the others will provide you with support afterward."
Li Juan paused, then said instinctively, "Ying can't help with this sort of thing. She doesn't understand technology."
Before Li Juan could finish, her younger sister Li Ying gave her a resounding kick in the leg. "Do whatever Big Brother tells you to do. Where did all this nonsense come from? Look at how capable you think you are!"
