Chapter 14: Eating Peas

  The atmosphere cooled down, Yang Yun's face turned iron-blue as he stared at Shen Jun, the other four people remained silent, sitting in their seats without daring to make a sound.

  Shen Jun stood up against Yang Yun, not backing down at all.

  He is over 30 years old, highly educated, a graduate of a prestigious university, with rich experience, and in his prime, yet he was arranged to work under this young whippersnapper in his early 20s, being ordered around, and actually made him, the big shot who developed microcomputers, research household computer hosts, such a trivial matter?

  Two pieces of simple integrated circuit boards without even a CPU, a broken handle controller with almost no technical content, plus a one-time molded rotten plastic shell, and he still wants to waste his time on process improvement?

  It doesn't matter, just consider it as getting familiar with the environment after entering the factory.

  But after talking for half a day and arranging a bunch of people to do things, he didn't hear Yang Yun's own task, so Shen Jun was naturally unhappy.

  Isn't it just entering the factory two months early? I heard that he was a porter? And the head of the technical department! What kind of thing is this! Shen Jun thought of his own glittering and heavy Tsinghua University graduate certificate, and a sense of superiority arose inexplicably. He retorted to Yang Yun, feeling very good about himself.

  Yang Yun's anger rose in his heart. What the hell is Tsinghua University? So what if he has a master's degree in computer science? Is this all the workplace emotional intelligence he has? Daring to question leadership to their face?

  You've been messing around for two years and have become a good-for-nothing, can't even make it elsewhere. Now you're running to Xiaobao Wang to beg for food? Still thinking of stepping on your grandfather's head to climb up?

  In later generations, if anyone dared to question a leader face-to-face, they would basically be done for.

  Is it for you to question what your superior does? Even if a leader is sleeping in the office, their subordinates have no right to interfere.

  Yang Yun let out a cold hum: "I'm the department head, of course I've mediated. What's this, does expert Shen have an opinion?"

  Shen Jun was furious, but he couldn't lose his temper on the spot. He coldly stabbed Yang Yun with a sentence, and as a result, Shen Gong became Shen Zhuanjia, who was directly ridiculed by a sentence: "Yang Kechang, I have been doing research and development in the laboratory of University of Science and Technology for seven years, and everything is planned. Simply put, plans are divided into three types: short-term plans take effect quickly, medium-term plans make technological breakthroughs, and long-term plans thoroughly solve problems. But your plan only lasts for a week?"

  Yang Yun waved his hand: "It's useless to tell me these things. This is a factory, where the focus is on making money, not your dull and gloomy research room. Do you need a plan for just a few small things? I have a plan in my mind!"

  Shen Jun stood up with a stern expression: "Dreary and depressing? That's still better than here! After completing the short-term plan for a week, what's next? You haven't designed any medium or long-term plans, how are you going to guide our technical department? Is Xiao Ba Wang company making decisions on a whim? Are you, Director Yang, just doing whatever comes to mind?"

  Yang Yun also stood up, smiling gloomily: "Right, it was I who decided with a clap of my hands. After you've finished the first thing, I'll arrange the second thing for you. In the R&D department, everything listens to me, no one can be an exception."

  Shen Jun's eyes blazed with anger: "This is fascist dictatorship! I will report this to Director Zhao!"

  Yang Yun suddenly burst out laughing, it seems that people who do research really lack a screw in their brain.

  When questioning the direct superior, and then skipping levels to find a higher-level leader to react to the situation, it is something that any high-level leader would not want to see, and it is impossible to promote him, because today he bypassed the technical department head to complain to the factory director, tomorrow he will bypass the factory director to complain to the group headquarters.

  The first department meeting ended in disarray, with the two parties going their separate ways, and the other four people trembling as they went back to work one by one.

  Zhao Yongping is naturally biased towards Yang Yun's side, at least Yang Yun has achieved results that make him convincing, while Shen Jun, although technically sound, hasn't been taken seriously by Zhao Yongping.

  This is also why the Reijin Group was able to find this disagreeable fellow.

  A technical expert with high EQ is a treasure wherever they are, and everyone likes them. A technical expert with low EQ will be knocked around for three to five years before being talked about again.

  On the third day, Shen Jun slammed a set of improved process flow documents on Yang Yun's desk, his eyes full of bloodshot, stubble all over his face, stubbornly and somewhat provocatively triumphant.

  Yang Yun flipped through it casually and said lightly: "With independent intellectual property rights? Improved production efficiency? If the materials are sufficient, how many units can be produced per day? What is the pass rate?"

  Shen Jun was about to answer triumphantly when Yang Yun waved his hand to interrupt him: "Go report to Director Zhao, I can't control you."

  Before he could even finish speaking, Shen Jun almost choked to death, snatched the documents and rushed out of the office to report.

  Zhao Yongping's secretary came over quickly and said: "Director Yang, Director Zhao has called a meeting for the R&D department."

  Meetings, meetings, meetings! Yang Yun hated meetings the most, wasting time and easily interrupting people's thoughts.

  In the conference room, Zhao Yongping sat in the chairman's seat flipping through the technical documents, Shen Jun followed beside him, bent over, with a respectful attitude, explaining line by line. Hearing footsteps, he looked up and saw Yang Yun and others, revealing a complacent expression.

  "Hmph!" someone snorted beside him, Yang Yun looked over to see Ma Liang, a young man with a face full of disdain, and couldn't help but laugh awkwardly.

  Ma Liang was driven to the software department by Shen Jun, who allegedly did not want to be dragged down. No wonder he had grievances. His own supervisor Huang Guangli even praised him for having talent. How dare Shen Jun call him a burden?

  Huang Guangli is a giant in the electronic industry circle of Chongqing! What is Shen Jun?

  Yang Yun smiled and invited everyone to sit down.

  Zhao Yongping put down the technical documents, frowned and asked: "Director Yang, according to Shen Gong's technical document design, there shouldn't be a big problem with the FC host system. Have you solved the cartridge issue? When can we launch our own Little King brand?"

  Yang Yun looked at Zhu Shi-qiang and Zhang Guo-tai, and the two quickly replied: "Thanks to Ma Liang's help, we'll probably need another two days, and should be able to complete it one or two days ahead of schedule."

  Shen Jun burst out laughing: "If Director Yang had helped them from the start, perhaps the integration of the cartridge would have been completed by now. Now it's the mainframe waiting for the cartridge, and we can't apply for a patent in time, which is just wasting time!"

  This remark hit four people at once. The first to be blamed were Zhu Shiqiang and Zhang Guotai, who were progressing too slowly. Then, Ma Liang's contributions were ignored. Finally, Yang Yun was criticized for poor arrangements, lack of effort, and no strategic vision.

  He also boasted about himself because he was fast!

  Seeing several people's angry faces, Yang Yun chuckled: "The shell of FC is too simple and has no technical content. The most complicated and core one is the cartridge. What's the harm in waiting a few more days? Director Zhao, come to my testing machine later, I'll show you something good."

  Too simple? No technical content? Then let me, this Tsinghua University expert, do the simplest one! Damn it!

  Shen Jun was about to blow up, but Zhao Yongping's eyes lit up. He had heard this sentence twice before, once from Gluttonous Snake and once from Russian Square. What was it going to be this time? He couldn't wait!

  "What's the point of having a meeting now! Let's go, let's go! Everyone, let's go together!" Zhao Yongping quickly stood up, almost knocking over the chair behind him. He didn't even glance at the craft files on the table, letting them scatter all over the desk, and didn't bother to clean them up. He hastily called out for everyone to leave together.

  The factory director took the lead on horseback, and the others followed behind him towards the research and development room.

  Shen Jun looked at the scattered documents, which were the result of his hard work for several days. He quickly rushed to pick them up and anxiously shouted: "Director Zhao! You haven't given me a definite answer yet!"

  Who cares about him anyway!

  Zhao Yongping stood behind the test machine in the best position, excitedly rubbing his hands and muttering: "Don't hide anymore! Run it quickly and take a look!"

  Yang Yun smiled and ran a program, still a square interface, like a maze, with all sorts of small monsters wandering around.

  Yang Yun controlled a circular disc with a missing piece, eating up a row of small light spots between the pipes, skillfully moving up and down, left and right, dodging the chasing little monsters, introducing: "This game is called Eat Beans!"
