Man: That is unbelievable!

Daniel: Daddy, can you tell me what they are talking about?

Benjamin: They are talking about the network of the bus company.

Daniel: Why is their network not working?

Benjamin: Because of the IC cards.

Daniel: The IC card?

Benjamin: Yes, Beijing is a big city and there are about 7,000,000 people using IC cards on buses.

Daniel: And?

Benjamin: All the people were checking the balance of their cards on the Internet at the same time, that's why the system crashed.

Daniel: Oh, that is horrible!
