Chapter 87
Lin Feng looked at the paper; the edges were a little curled, but it was still there.
He said, "Boss, I'll print a few more and put them in other places."
The fat man nodded.
Lin Feng wrote a few more, printed them out, and pasted them on the door, windowsill, and countertop.
After he finished pasting it up, he looked at it and was satisfied.
After leaving the computer room, he walked towards the bus stop.
After walking a few steps, the pager went off.
He picked it up and looked at it.
"Liu Jian: I have a letter for you. Come quickly."
He paused for a moment, then quickened his pace.
When we arrived at Liu Jian's house, Liu Jian's father was waiting in the living room.
He held an envelope in his hand and handed it to Lin Feng.
Lin Feng took it and looked at it.
The mailing address is BJ, the editorial department of *Computerworld*.
He tore open the envelope; inside was a piece of paper.
It's a GG receipt.
The note reads: Your manuscript has been scheduled for publication in issue 47, expected on October 15th. The manuscript fee of 50 yuan has been deducted from the remittance. The remaining manuscript fee of 30 yuan is enclosed.
Lin Feng flipped through it and sure enough, there was a remittance slip.
Thirty yuan.
He carefully kept the remittance slip.
Liu Jian's father, watching from the side, smiled and asked, "How is it?"
Lin Feng said, "GG will be released next month."
Liu Jian's father nodded.
"There will be more letters then."
Lin Feng nodded as well.
He sat down and began to think about his next step.
Once GG logs out, people will write to ask him/her.
He needs to prepare the content of his reply and more localization software.
WinZip needs to be created as soon as possible.
He asked Liu Jian's father, "Uncle, can you install Windows here?"
Liu Jian's father thought about it.
"You can install it. I have a Windows 3.2 system that I haven't installed yet."
He pulled out a box and handed it to Lin Feng.
Inside were several floppy disks and an instruction manual.
Lin Feng took a look.
Windows 3.2 Chinese version.
His eyes lit up.
With this, you can translate WinZip into Chinese.
He asked, "Uncle, can I pretend?"
Liu Jian's father nodded.
"Go ahead and install it. I'll use it too once it's installed."
Lin Feng sat down and began installing Windows.
One floppy disk at a time, they were replaced.
It took more than an hour to install, but it's done.
He restarted his computer.
The Windows interface popped up on the screen.
He opened the program manager and took a look.
It works.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he took out a floppy disk and started looking for the WinZip installation files.
It's not on Liu Jian's father's computer.
He thought for a moment and asked Liu Jian's father, "Uncle, do you have a WinZip installation disk?"
Liu Jian's father shook his head.
"No. You have to buy that at the computer mall."
Lin Feng nodded.
I'll go to the computer mall tomorrow.
After school on Tuesday, Lin Feng went to the computer mall.
Beichuan City has only one computer mall, located in the city center, opposite the department store. It has three floors, and it's entirely dedicated to selling computers and software.
He walked through each floor.
There were many hardware vendors, but fewer software vendors. Several counters displayed rows of floppy disks labeled with titles such as DOS 6.22, Windows 3.2, UCDOS, WPS, and some games.
After searching for a long time, he finally found a place that sold tools.
There were several rows of software programs on the counter, including PKZIP, ARJ, HD-COPY, and WinZip.
He pointed to WinZip and asked, "How much is this?"
The boss glanced at him.
"fifteen."
Lin Feng thought for a moment and took out fifteen yuan.
The boss handed him a floppy disk.
He took it and put it in his pocket.
Then he wandered around again and bought a few blank floppy disks for five yuan.
When he got home, he sat in front of the computer—not the computer, but his mind.
He mentally reviewed the WinZip file structure.
Then he started thinking of a localization plan.
WinZip is a Windows program that has menus, dialog boxes, and prompts.
