Chapter 6 Job Hunting 3

  After reviewing the design framework and customer requirements, I still think the problem lies in the software framework design. I pulled out the section of code related to the software framework, but couldn't finish reading it halfway through. The whole thing is a joke. I estimate that the person who designed the framework just graduated from school. The program itself is not wrong, but you can't just string together different parts and call it a day. There are many repeated parts that weren't deleted, and some parts that should be directly connected aren't, making the entire system bloated and cumbersome. It's like integrating multiple websites into one page with superlinks, and when two websites have different data, who do you trust?

  "Ah!" I sighed, and directly started redoing the framework. Cough! Everything is for life... no, it's for money. As the saying goes: having money isn't omnipotent, but not having money is utterly powerless.

  After completing the framework, I began to graft the existing branch program onto the framework, and then test, modify, and test again...

  Just as I was busy sweating all over, a group of people surrounded me from behind again. Everyone is on the verge of mental collapse...

  "Xiao Xu, where did this chairman come from? And that programming speed is also outrageous, I think it's more than twice as fast as Director Qin's."

  "Really? Really?"

  "Not only that, his framework structure looks weird, but it seems to be very efficient. (Nonsense, hackers value efficiency. If it wasn't efficient, my dead laptop would still work?)"

  "How did he delete almost half of Xiao Ke's program and append the rest to Da Chen's part?"

  "But it seems like the software will be much smaller..."

  "Alright, alright, it's almost over, stop arguing..."

  Finally done, it's been a long time since I've worked on such a long program. Although it was mainly modifications and adjustments, I still feel a bit tired. My stomach is growling too. Looking at the computer time, 21:17?? Oh my god, more than five hours have passed, no wonder.

  A loud "bang" rang out, and simultaneously, all heads turned towards the door...

  "What time is it? Don't eat dinner..." Before he could finish speaking, Bai Gan was scared by so many "wolf" eyes that the leg that pushed open the door actually retreated. "How can everyone be like this, I haven't offended anyone..."

  Before he finished speaking, everyone's gaze turned back to the screen in front of me. Although everyone can bear hunger, I still have to continue debugging. "Qin Ge, where is the food here? It's already past 9 o'clock without anyone noticing."

  A group of people almost simultaneously said "I'll go get it for you..." Hehe, and White Dry Brother jumped again.

  Eating the fast food brought by others, I'm really happy in my heart. Thinking about half a day ago, I was still worried about work problems. Now looking at the reaction of employees in this company, it seems that basic work is not a problem anymore. While eating, I debugged software with several programmers. Since completing the initial debugging, many people have joined in, even old Huang is busy with a computer on the side. The most relaxed are those two managers, Xu Ge probably has experienced it before and can still run errands to help everyone pour tea. Qin Ge is completely like a silly duck (from Pokémon), standing there staring blankly.

  When the time ran to 23:30, the main project had been tested and only a few small problems were found. After some minor modifications, everything was completely OK. Next, except for larger-scale debugging, we have to rely on customers' actual operation to find out the problems. Everyone surrounded me, chattering non-stop, it felt like using Gen to conquer the Pentagon, one word "cool". Finally, a group of people, under Xu Ge's suggestion, ran to the seafood city to celebrate, and didn't disperse until after 3 o'clock in the morning...

  Lying in bed, I couldn't fall asleep until almost five o'clock. I thought about what Xiaoke said at the dinner party, that a company would offer a salary of over 5,000 yuan for programming skills like mine. Five thousand, which is not much less than the cost of traveling to Korea with KOKO. (KOKO: Faint, 5,000 per month? Sixty thousand per year, I can give you 40 million RMB, how unfair are you to me?) As my upper and lower eyelids negotiated more seriously, the sleep demon finally defeated the god of desire...

  The next morning, Sun Qinan came to the company to handle his daily affairs and was about to go on a tour of various departments. As he walked past the advertising design department, he couldn't help but think of the young man from yesterday. Alas, nowadays young people are like that. But since he didn't come today, it's likely that he was worn out by Little Xu and others yesterday. Hopefully, it won't affect his outlook on life, or else it would be a pity. He stopped in his tracks, thinking that he should still go ask Little Xu about it.

  "Chairman, who are you looking for?"

  "Is Little Xu there? I'm looking for him to ask something."

  "Oh, Director Xu hasn't arrived at work yet. I guess he went home too late last night and can't get up."

  "Did he come back very late yesterday? Your department shouldn't be very busy these days, right?"

  "Oh, wasn't it you, Chairman, who instructed Director Xu to take that young man to try out in various departments yesterday?"

  "So that's what happened, then where did he go in the end?"

  "It seems like it was Software Team 3, I also heard that Team 3 stayed very late last night."

  "Alright, you go ahead and attend to your business, I'll take a look over there."

  "Hello, Chairman! Is there anything I can help you with? Ah, yesterday Xu from the advertising design department brought a gentleman to see Manager Qin. Later, Manager Qin took them to Group 3. They worked very late last night. Oh, and today neither Manager Qin nor anyone from Group 3 has come to work yet. Alright, if they show up, I'll have them come find you."

  The time has been shifted to 10:00 am.

  "Hey, Old Huang, you're back. What's going on with your group today? No one came to work? Even Director Qin didn't show up. Didn't they go on strike together after being scolded by the general manager last time? But it's also your bad luck, such a big project, only one group of people doing it, not dead from exhaustion or frustration. Oh, right, the chairman asked anyone from your group to come back to the company and find him, probably still about that matter, you'd better be careful~~"

  "If the chairman or general manager had asked for me yesterday, I would have been really scared. But is this possible? I'm not worried at all now, but thinking about it is really embarrassing. Our software team of 23 people are all eating dry rice, and we're not even as good as a high school graduate who's still wet behind the ears. However, that little guy's programming skills are not to be underestimated. The software that had been troubling our company for so long from Arike was solved by him in just three or five minutes. Maybe I'm really old now. Okay, I'll go see the chairman, and Little Han will help me take care of my bag..."

  "Chairman, are you looking for our department?" Although he had scolded several colleagues in front of him, when walking inside and seeing one of the pioneers of China's software industry, Old Huang became nervous and almost couldn't speak.

  "Oh, yes, I wanted to ask about yesterday's matter, you sit down." He also said to the secretary: "Little Ke, pour Director Huang a glass of water"

  Old Huang sat on the sofa with a cup in his hand, looking uncomfortable and fidgety, sticking out half of his buttocks as if he was an official from the Qing dynasty receiving an imperial edict to sit down. (During the Qing dynasty, officials were only allowed to sit with half of their buttocks when receiving an imperial edict, and they couldn't face the emperor directly, a single word "humility".)

  "Lao Huang, did you guys work overtime until very late last night? Why isn't anyone coming to work today? But the two department heads, Xu and Qin, aren't here either. Do you know what's going on? I couldn't even reach them by phone."

  "Ah, the chairman is like that. Yesterday, two managers and we debugged the software of Arike company together. Since it was quite successful, Manager Qin went to gather everyone's opinions. Originally, after debugging, it was already very late, but since everyone had been suppressed by the software for a long time, they were all excited and made a bit of noise. Everyone may have rested too late..."

  "Is that so, that software has been troubling everyone for a long time, being able to solve it is really worth celebrating. However, I heard Qiu Zong say just the other day that he wanted to put this software to a vote, and even made preparations to let this software be scrapped in the worst-case scenario. But you guys have managed to get it done. Now, Qiu Zong won't be nagging your three groups anymore."

  "No, no, no, this isn't our credit, to be honest it's all thanks to you, Chairman. If it weren't for you, this project would probably have ended like Qiu said."

  "What's it to me? I haven't done anything for your group, nor have I provided you with any information. Old Huang, should I say you're being overly modest or just randomly flattering?"

  "No, no, Chairman, I didn't even flatter him a bit. It's all because of the people you brought in, and the relationship between Director Qin and the person he brought in. That young man is too amazing! I think that in our company or in Beijing... Ah, no, I mean to say that in China, it's rare to find such a programming genius. Chairman, being able to recruit such a talent to join our company is truly remarkable. Just with him alone, I think we can already take a place in the software industry." Old Huang said as he became more and more excited, standing up and his face turning bright red, with an air of superiority over other software companies.
