The phone was quickly connected and Zheng Jun's loud voice roared out of the loudspeaker.
"Lao Er, what the hell have you been doing! The phone is switched off, you don't reply to microchat, and you don't even have a letter on your e-mail! If you disappear for a few more days, we won't be able to live in our dormitory!"
"Boss ... I saw all the messages you guys sent, what's going on?"
Placing his cell phone on the armrest of the sofa, Wang Shuo comfortably lay down and inquired.
"You still ask me? I still want to ask you! Lao Er, what on earth did you provoke the old demoness!"
"Old Demoness?" Wang Shuo reacted slightly before realizing who Zheng Jun was talking about, "What happened to her?"
"What's wrong? Simply collapsed! Names you in class every day! As long as you're not around, you pull a face and people scatter." Zheng Jun's voice paused for a moment, seemingly somewhat hopeless, "What's even more detestable is! She even came to check the dormitory every day! She doesn't check anyone's dormitory but ours! At 9:30, the entire dormitory is required to turn out the lights in the dormitory! It's impossible to live this life!"
Wang Shuo was somewhat speechless, not knowing how to comfort him, so he could only say, "Boss, the brothers have worked hard."
"Tough shit!" Zheng Jun's voice was even louder, "Second, hurry up and fix the old demoness, don't let her toss us around like this anymore! Because of her, Li Li hasn't accompanied his girlfriend out for seven consecutive days! The little sister I told you about last time, originally we still had some progress, but now it's all gone too!"
It's really ... miserable.
Wang Shuo could imagine this kind of misery, and couldn't help but grin, carefully closing his voice.
"There is also the old four, recently these two days do not know what happened, always do not return to the dormitory, occasionally back also taut face. Which of his little lovers, with or without them are running to our dormitory, annoying them to death!"
Wang Shuo was curious: "Isn't it good to have a little sister running to the dormitory every day?"
"Good?" Zheng Jun seemed to be getting angrier and angrier, "I'm Lao Si's classmate, not Lao Si's follower! Those little girls, when they ask, they are quite polite, as soon as they hear that Lao Si is not here, they immediately change their faces, I am tired of looking at them, I really want to tell the building mom not to let the girls mess around with the door!"
"What's even more annoying is that the little sister who is good with me, I don't know when I have observed me from afar, and saw these little sisters are taking the initiative to talk to me, she even ... took me as a seller!"
"Pfft!" Wang Shuo just drank in a mouthful of water sprayed out on the spot.
"What? Boss, you're not teasing me, right?"
"I'm teasing you I'm a puppy!" Zheng Jun's raspy, loud voice was filled with aggravation, "Lao Er, come back! Don't take a vacation! Brother has something important for you!"
"Fine, I'll be back tomorrow."
Hanging up the phone, Wang Shuo couldn't hold back any longer and threw the phone away, laughing.
Leaving aside how Wang Shuo was being sprayed, at this moment, Chen Xin's mood was far less calm than what she showed on the surface.
The frowns that clustered from time to time and the occasional sadness that appeared on her face all indicated how fierce a struggle was going on inside her heart at the moment.
This was something she had never encountered in her eighteen years.
Chen Xin did not know what words she should use to depict her feelings at this moment.
Excited?
It didn't seem right.
Excited?
Doesn't seem right either.
Apprehensive?
Seemed a little close.
But anyway, she was aware of what kind of mindset she was in before.
It was a feeling that the sky had fallen, a state of mind that mourned the death of her heart. She even developed hatred towards her father, who had always loved her dearly, and distrust towards the entire Chen family.
She ran away from home and traveled thousands of miles to come to W City, just to figure out the reason on Uncle Chen, whom she felt closest to since childhood.
But by the time she really figured out the causes and consequences, she was a bit confused again.
As confused as she is now.
On one side, there was her father and mother, the Chen family that gave birth to her; on the other side, there were her aunts and uncles who hated to sell her at a good price; and on the other side, there was the independent character that she had always kept hidden in her heart, just as her sister had done.
The competition and struggle between the three made her very confused.
She wanted to work hard and become a strong person as Uncle Chen said, but she thought too simply, the threshold of technology was not something she could step into by reading a few books.
She could easily understand the classic economic theories, she could very easily figure out the compound interest progressive effect, figure out the paradox of thrift, and she could also read the Principles of Economics with nourishment.
But she couldn't read Principles of Mechanics and Construction, and couldn't figure out Principles of Computer Programming, let alone figure out a control system that was adequate for use in ten days.
It wasn't her area of expertise, but she had no choice.
She didn't want to accept her fate, she wanted to rebel in her own way, she wanted to make a weak voice and do her small part.
At least when she waited for ten years, decades later, when she asked herself at that time, she wouldn't regret for making no effort at all.
But Wang Shuo's reminder made her come to her senses, no matter what she did, it was just futile.
She resigned herself to her fate.
But resignation didn't mean acceptance without reaction.
She could protest in her own way to the family members who made the demands. She wanted to let everyone in the family know that the decision she had made was not because of their pressure, but was a decision she had made voluntarily, and that saving them, a bunch of assholes, was just a collateral effect.
The script that had already been written by herself was once again broken because of Wang Shuo's appearance, and along with it, her own already silent heart.
No one knows, when she heard Wang Shuo say that he had finished the system and handed her the USB flash drive, what shocking waves were set off in her heart, more than ten years of emotional management habits allowed her expression not to be excessively out of control, but she still lost her temper.
The first time she lost her temper in front of a man.
Chen Xin looked at the bag in her hand, this is her eighteenth birthday when her mother gave her Lv, has always been very much cherished by her.
But today, it was finally no longer the most important thing to one.
Chen Xin pursed her lips and looked up at the window.
At this time, it was already nighttime, and the streetlights and neon lights on the street were beautifully intertwined.
The original nervousness slowly relaxed, remembering the way Wang Shuo touched his head and handed her the USB flash drive with a smug look on his face and was afraid of missing the time.
The corner of Chen Xin's mouth revealed a smile.
It is really a person that people can not see through it.
One hour later.
W City Chen's Group Branch.
Located in the high-level office, an engineer-looking young man was sweating profusely as he operated the computer, opening a certain tool from time to time, and then closing it with a questioning look on his face.
Only after half an hour of such drumming did he wipe his sweat and glance at Chen Xin who had been standing next to him.
"Ms. Chen, is there a problem with this program of yours ..." He pointed to the tips on the screen, "Normal software packages are all separate folders that contain the runtime environment and the runnable program together. You this ..."
"There is only a runtime program file icon, and completely unable to run ah."
"Also prompted what did not find hardware information, huh, not I blow, our company configuration of the server is the top tier, it is completely impossible to have hardware problems."
"What about your analysis." Chen Xin faintly asked.
The young man spread his hands and helplessly said, "Completely unable to analyze, I used various analysis software to try to reverse, but ..."
Chen Xin understood, and she turned her head to look at the assistant behind her.
"There is no one else Ms. Chen." The female assistant said with some hesitation, "Our company has resigned a lot of personnel in the past two days, and many programmers have left."
"Even if they didn't leave, I'm still the most technically proficient among them." The young man who finished wiping off his sweat was slightly arrogant, "If I can't even analyze something, they are even more incapable of doing anything at all."
"If I tell you that this is a control system installation program, can you analyze it from other aspects, such as the architecture."
"A control system program?" The young man shook his head like a rattle drum, his face full of disbelief, "If you say this is an ordinary running file I still believe it, a system program? Haha, how is that possible."
"Ms. Chen you are not in our line of work, you don't know how complicated a system program is. Let me give you an example, the Japanese company W that we are negotiating with now, their main focus is the high precision tool setting instrument, the control system is not considered optimal. But even so, let them install a system cost is amazing, not only need to provide us with detailed data, parameters of the machining center, but also need to provide us with round-the-clock accompanied by service, if the slightest hardware problems, people can just quit and leave, we still have to pay the money."
"That's fine, but miss, do you know how much such a system costs?" The young man smashed his mouth exaggeratedly, "One hundred million dollars, for such a system, the initial installation and training fee needs one hundred million dollars, and it doesn't include teaching; the subsequent installation and use needs ten million dollars of service fee each time."
"Such a high service fee, almost no cost, as long as we can get it out, we can save a large amount of cost, then why no one to do it? The reason is simple, it's too complicated." The young man shook his head, "A set of c control system involves too many problems, Mr. Chen has invested quite a lot of research and development costs, and is also a strong supporter of us programmers, but ..."
Looking at Chen Xin's calm face, the young man seemed to have lost the idea of continuing to boast about his learning, and said with some boredom, "Let alone the fact that this program you brought is not a system program, even if it is a system program that can be installed, you will have to go through half a year of training if you want to use it skillfully. What's more ..." The young man looked at the computer screen display, "It is obviously an icon."
Chen Xin frowned.
"If you ask me, Ms. Chen." The young man kindly persuaded, "Don't waste your efforts on this icon, it's obviously just something that some programmer made to amuse you when he was bored. This kind of thing, in the past when Ning Hao was still around we also made it for fun, but it's not as advanced as this is, analyzing programs that can't even be reversed, this is the first time I've seen it ..."
Chen Xin once again cast her gaze at the female assistant.
"Ning Hao is also an employee of our company, presiding over the construction of the system architecture." The female assistant was a bit embarrassed, "He later left for personal reasons."
"He was going to a better and more promising company." The young man tsked his mouth, "If it wasn't for the fact that our company treats me pretty well, I would have wanted to agree to jump ship."
"Li Si Yu!" The female assistant gulped.
"Okay ... okay, I was wrong." The young man was full of helplessness and raised his hands in surrender, "But Ms. Chen, what I said to you above is not false, this thing, it can't even be called a program, it doesn't have any of the essentials of a program."
Chen Xin was silent for a moment, "Got it."
"Ms. Chen, do you want me to call someone else for you to take a look." The female assistant glared fiercely at the young man and came over to Chen Xin's side to remedy the situation, "Our company doesn't have any programmers, but the group's experts have come quite a bit in the past few days, I'll contact them for you."
"No need." Chen Xin said indifferently.
Group's experts? They were all titular professors and scholars or whatever, people probably wouldn't be interested in coming here to help themselves parse a program that had little value, moreover, it was estimated that no one would believe that they could come up with a control system.
The young man took the USB flash drive off the computer and handed it to the female assistant, who in turn handed it to Chen Xin.
Chen Xin quietly looked at the USB flash drive in her hand and seemed to be a bit lost in thought.
Is it possible for Wang Shuo to deceive himself with an icon?
It seems to be possible ... So what good does this do him?
There seems to be little benefit.
Then ... this thing is real?
But since it was real, why couldn't it be parsed out through technical means?
Chen Xin couldn't help but have a bit of a headache, ever since she met Wang Shuo, she realized that her fixation was getting worse and worse, and she was getting more and more susceptible to the influence of her environment.
"What time does the test start to take place the day after tomorrow?" Chen Xin asked.
"This ..." the female assistant stammered a bit, "This is also the thing I want to report to you. I've just received word that the Japanese company W's side has requested that the testing and consultation be moved up, saying that they have urgent matters that require them to leave."
Chen Xin frowned slightly, "When."
"The latest time is ... tomorrow morning." The female assistant's voice was somewhat helpless, "Tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, the test and consultation will take place simultaneously at both the group branch and the Sheraton Grand Hotel. The chairman of the board has already informed all the event participants of the alteration time and will arrange for the engineering prototype to be transported to W City overnight."
Chen Xin slowly squeezed the flash drive in her hand tightly, a flash of sulkiness flashing past her face.
"Ms. Chen, should you ... contact the chairman?"
"No need." Chen Xin indifferently said, "It always has to go."
There were some things that always required a gamble to know the outcome.
