Chapter 325: Test for Fun
Li Yan was walking slowly towards the bus, repeating the unfinished words in her mind:
We must maximize the effect of personal worship and make everyone believe that Mr. Li is omnipotent.
Before he can truly be omnipotent, he needs to fully squeeze out the benefits brought by his current image as a "genius boy".
Li Yan does not have sufficient capital, brand effect, or technical accumulation, and his influence today is mainly concentrated on "potential".
Potential, this is his greatest magic weapon at present.
But if Li Yan were to go on stage and talk about industry-leading things and then ask for technical support, I'm afraid no one would buy it. At best, they would just admire her as an ambitious future star.
But if it is a sufficiently amazing sample, the current industry leading giant Chuangzu is the platform, and the talented teenager Li Yan releases these three sets in one, that is another matter.
As long as the investment is not too high, major companies are still happy to cooperate with Li Yan.
If it succeeds, you'll make a lot of money. If it fails, at least you can earn the favor and goodwill of this promising junior high school student.
If it really fails, it will be a huge loss for the founder, but it can be regarded as a way to clear the way for the up-and-coming stars in the industry, which is a good thing.
Before returning to the dormitory, Li Yan suddenly felt tired on the bus.
The sun is shining brightly today, and it keeps reminding Li Yan intensively, "You've stayed up all night, it's time to catch up on your sleep."
So when he got back to the dormitory, he just brushed his teeth and lay down on the bed, scaring his roommates who had just woken up so much that they dared not even breathe.
"Are you asleep?" Liang Tiancheng asked in a low voice.
Chen Fan moved closer to Li Yan's bed and sniffed his breath. "He should be asleep."
"In ancient times, there were miracle doctors who could diagnose pulses by hanging thread. Today, there is Chen Fan who can check a person's breathing to determine if he is asleep." Li Ruofei joked.
There was a small laugh from everyone.
"That's strange. Yesterday was Arbor Day. Did you really go to plant trees?" Zhu Qinglun asked.
"Planting trees all night?" Lin Heng asked.
"I don't know. Mr. Yan's life...is no longer something that mortals like us can understand." Zhu Qinglun sighed.
The frequency of communication in the "Hetu" group is gradually increasing. As everyone discovers more and more difficult problems, everyone's sense of urgency is getting stronger.
They gradually realized that even if they did not build a complete system, but just met the requirements put forward by Li Yan, there were far more things that needed to be considered than the final question of the Youth Information Olympiad International Competition.
There is a big difference between practical application and theory.
The concept of "time is tight" gradually became clear from vague.
Before the workload was clear, He Zixiang and his team just thought that "three months to learn something they don't understand shouldn't be enough", but now...
It was indeed very stressful. The construction period was 90 days in total but the progress in the first seven days was only 0.1%.
Although Li Yan would say things like "finding problems is a welcome progress" in the group, it was useless when the time came to get anxious.
Fortunately, this group of young people are very ambitious and have the unbridled spirit of a newborn calf that is not afraid of a tiger.
The more problems I find, the more I want to solve them.
The more progress we make by 0.1, the faster we need to push it to %.
There's nothing better than accomplishing an impossible task.
He Zixiang: These are some ideas I sorted out today. Let’s see if you have any comments.
Deng Yudi: @Yining@Frustrated@Li Yan
Chen Fan: Yan Shen just returned to the dormitory and is sleeping.
Lai Yining: There are times when we try so hard to make him sleep? The sky is falling!
He Zixiang: Let's take advantage of this opportunity, the four of us will work hard quietly and then surprise him!
Deng Yudi: (plotting loudly)
Although it has only been a few days since the official start of work, everyone has done sufficient preparation for the preliminary work and soon there was a very distinctive division of labor.
He Zixiang likes to do organizing work and will summarize the research results of the previous stage. Li Yan calls him "the summarizing immortal."
Lai Yining has a lot of ideas. He always comes up with some programs that can meet the needs but have unique ideas. He often reports errors, so Li Yan calls him "BUG Immortal".
Deng Yudi was the one who calmly tested and found the bug in Lai Yining's program, so he was given the nickname "Testing Immortal".
Because Chen Fan knows more about smartphones than others, he is good at converting Li Yan's requirements into mobile phone operation requirements, and then further into program requirements. He is called the "Demand Immortal".
Li Yan himself is the helmsman, controlling the general direction of the entire research, and after the test immortal finds the bug in the BUG immortal, he fixes it.
This is a leadership role that is responsible for both management and technology.
When Li Yan didn't participate much in the research of technical difficulties at the beginning, Chen Fan even teased him.
This is what a leader does. The researchers under him only need to do good research, but the leader has to consider more things, such as what to let the researchers under him research.
After everyone had spent an entire afternoon studying the difficult points, Li Yan, who was stuck in writing a novel, easily overcame them.
Maybe we shouldn’t use the word “conquer” which seems a bit difficult. We should say “kill in seconds”.
It is understandable that the CEO of a company is also the chief engineer.
Li Yan took so much sleep that he missed his lunch. When he woke up, it was already 2:30 in the afternoon.
The roommates were all very shocked. When they saw Li Yan waking up, they all sighed, "Fortunately, she's still alive."
"Is it so outrageous...I stayed up all night last night with my good brothers." Li Yan yawned.
"Are you really planting trees all night long?" Zhu Qinglun was shocked.
The whole place burst into laughter.
“I didn’t do anything so green.”
"Then, then, then...is it something pornographic?" Lin Heng quickly interrupted.
"Your handsome face can't save such a wretched expression." Li Yan complained mercilessly, "I just talked to the boss of Chuangzu about cooperation last night."
There was silence.
Chen Fan stopped typing halfway.
Careless! Even though this guy is very powerful now, his pretense is still with him, and he kills anyone who is caught in his pretense.
The scary thing is that his level of pretense has gradually reached a point where it’s a little hard for anyone to understand!
Talk about cooperation with the boss of Chuangzu?
"Did you open a big company privately?" Lin Heng rushed to Li Yan's bedside and said, "Let me tell you, minors cannot be legal persons."
"How could Mr. Yan be the legal representative himself? He must have let someone else be the legal representative, and he himself will be the invisible big hand behind the scenes."
Speaking of this, Zhu Qinglun also performed an open palm image to show what an invisible big hand is.
"Catch the X-Dragon Claw Hand?" After Lin Heng said this, Zhu Qinglun chased him to the flower garden downstairs.
"Talking about cooperation does not mean cooperation." Li Yan said helplessly, "Please don't make it seem like you are spreading rumors."
"In a few days, the internet will be full of news about Ayan investing in Chuangzu." Li Ruofei laughed.
"It should be Chuangzu who invested in Li Yan." Liang Tiancheng is also very naughty now.
"Don't worry, I'm not sure about it either."
After all, even if they had a good chat, it was just one night of chatting, and the two of them didn't know each other that well.
Huang Zhan is a businessman after all, but he also has the underlying character of an idealist.
Faced with the choice given by Li Yan, no one can tell whether he will pay more attention to rational interests or emotional pursuits.
Let’s assume the worst case scenario. What if Huang Zhan is still a villain at heart?
After listening to Li Yan's ideas, he quietly started to invest in it and suddenly announced the birth of Chuangzu W9...
It's not impossible.
Sincerity cannot always be exchanged for sincerity.
This time, Li Yan was no longer the one holding the initiative, and she was indeed a little nervous.
He suddenly became distracted and was then called back by Chen Fan.
"Li Yan," it was very strange. Chen Fan was also called Yanshen in the QQ group, but in real life he always called Li Yan. "Teacher Ye asked me to ask you, are you still going to sign up for the National Mathematics League?"
"Do I need to avoid asking Lin Heng and Zhu Qinglun this question?" Li Ruofei's approach was also very clear.
This group of roommates are getting more and more troublesome.
"Isn't the exam next Wednesday? Why are you asking about registration now?" Li Yan was curious.
"The list should have been finalized long ago, but you are unreasonable, so..."
“Don’t slander me! Just because others help me and are unreasonable doesn’t mean I am unreasonable. I am a good citizen of the new era.” Li Yan regained his spirits, rolled over and got out of bed, and immediately his stomach began to growl.
"Okay, okay..." Chen Fan said with a smile, "Anyway, the organizing committee should be looking forward to your participation as well."
"Damn, even if I can't get first place, they will make me first place? It's really a deification movement." "Is Li Yan more dramatic when he just woke up?" Chen Fan asked Liang Tiancheng.
Liang Tiancheng shook his head.
"How long will the competition take?"
"One morning."
"Okay, it won't take long. Your cell phone won't need half a day. Let's go ahead and participate."
"Then I'll talk to Teacher Ye." Chen Fan said as he prepared to make a phone call.
"Why does Teacher Ye have to say these things and need your approval?"
"...Guess who didn't attend class and the teacher couldn't find him?"
"He can call my cell phone." Li Yan said confidently, "But you are still so active in class?"
This statement is really contrary to the will of Heaven.
"My exam is approaching... I'm still a little stressed. It would be so embarrassing if I don't win the first prize." Chen Fan felt a little embarrassed.
Liang Tiancheng felt very annoyed.
Li Yan has a theory: the perceived speed of time flow is proportional to the degree of fulfillment.
The more fulfilling your days are, the faster time goes.
Especially when there is a big project to work on, you have to dive into it as soon as you wake up, and it’s time to go to bed as soon as you can catch your breath.
Daily life became very simple, leaving no extra time to deal with other things - that's why Li Yan had to finish writing the novel first.
Once the smartphone thing became popular, Li Yan was overwhelmed by all kinds of problems.
He is indeed very talented, and can use his all-round ability to make 1+1 greater than 2 in some things, but after all, his upper limit is stuck at 60%.
He couldn't be an expert in solving all problems by himself, so he needed to find Huang Zhan, and then ask Huang Zhan to find experts from various major manufacturers.
After discussing and studying several issues with everyone in the "Hetu System" group, Li Yan yawned and it was dark.
He originally thought that time would be a bit difficult to endure before Huang Zhan gave him a definite reply, but he did not expect that the day would be coming to an end before he knew it.
This damn thing called time anxiety finally found him across past and future lives.
"I am still myself, and I will still defeat myself as I should."
Fortunately, Huang Zhan was also in a hurry. He did not give Li Yan too much opportunity to worry. He called Li Yan and made a request:
"If you have any companies you want to visit and negotiate with, please make a list for me and I will go with you in the name of the Chuang Clan."
Li Yan got rid of the floating psychological pressure and took on another huge rock.
There's more to come!
Going out for interviews is not easy for Huang Zhan and Li Yan. One is a boss who calls himself a "homebody" and has never been to Beijing or Shanghai, and the other is a genius boy who thinks socializing is more tiring than writing novels all night.
So it was quite troublesome for Li Yan to compile this visit list, and she often had to decide whether "is this company worth visiting in person or just a phone call?"
This dilemma lasted until the opening day of the National Junior High School Mathematics League.
"Fuck, it's already been five days? Why do I feel like I haven't accomplished anything?"
Li Yan was a little annoyed.
While Chen Fan was adjusting his mentality, Li Yan was still chatting with Deng Yudi, who had gotten up early, on the computer. She only left her seat in a hurry, holding a piece of bread in her mouth, until Chen Fan urged her to go out and take the bus.
"You really don't review for even a second?" Chen Fan sighed for the 10086th time in the past two days.
“Reviewing doesn’t mean much to me.”
"No, you haven't touched this knowledge for a long time, aren't you afraid of not being able to adapt?"
"The idea proposed by Old Deng this morning is indeed quite interesting..."
"No, no, no, wait until I finish the exam. Don't pollute the information pool in my brain now." Chen Fan covered his ears.
Indeed, the time before exams is when earworms are most active.
Li Yan vaguely remembered that when he was taking an architectural history exam in college, he couldn't even type in a simple fill-in-the-blank question about the name of the modernist master Le Corbusier.
It was all thanks to an idiot who kept reciting nonsense before entering the examination room. He made up the word "Kabasali" and recited it several times in a row.
As a result, Li Yan’s mind in the examination room was filled with this inexplicable “Kabasali”.
Please don't repeat such jokes as "Bashan and Chushui are a desolate place, responsibility" to your classmates before the Chinese language test. It's too mean.
Liang Tiancheng, who was also taking the exam, just smiled.
He didn't even know what Li Yan was going to say.
There is not much to say about the exam. Even the examination venue was set up in New Taipei Middle School, which is really unremarkable.
In order not to waste time, Li Yan filled his draft paper with procedures, and in the last few minutes of the exam he blacked out all the information to avoid leaking any secrets.
So what Li Yan handed in was a piece of almost pure black draft paper, which made the teacher think that someone was using some unspeakable secret method to answer questions in the examination room.
"Not too difficult, right?" Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief as he walked out of the examination room. In previous years, he could get the first prize by scoring 150 points out of 70. He almost finished the entire test paper. If it weren't for the exam, he could have opened a bottle of champagne.
"It's still a bit troublesome." Li Yan pursed her lips, a little absent-minded.
Chen Fan broke out in a cold sweat instantly, thinking that he was deceived by the appearance of the question.
Even Yan Shen finds it difficult, but you think it’s not that difficult?
problem occurs!
Liang Tiancheng's heart also skipped a beat.
"I simulated Deng's thinking and felt that he could only handle one level of instructions."
Thank you.
Li Yan, Chen Fan and Liang Tiancheng were different from other contestants from New Taipei First High School. The three of them were riding in the car of their mathematics teacher Ye Xin.
"How did you do in the exam?" Ye Xin asked.
"Feeling good." Chen Fan replied.
"Not bad, I should be sure to win the first prize." Liang Tiancheng seemed very steady.
“If I didn’t lose points for skipping steps in the third-to-last question, I should have gotten the full score,” Li Yan replied.
"Hahaha." Ye Xin had never felt the fear of being dominated by the King of Force, so he subconsciously avoided the topic, "Chen Fan, Tiancheng, did you gain anything from participating in the competition with Li Yan?"
"We still have to work hard." Liang Tiancheng said.
"I learned a lot." Chen Fan responded.
Ye Xin nodded with satisfaction.
"Especially when it comes to showing off." Chen Fan added.
Ye Xin almost slammed on the brakes.
In his eyes, the word "pretending" still has a derogatory meaning, so he put on a serious face and said, "Chen Fan, Li Yan's behavior is not called pretending, it's called..."
"Isn't this pretentious enough?" Li Yan interrupted Ye Xin.
I'm trying my best to show off, and you tell me this isn't showing off?
This really confused Ye Xin.
No wonder Guo Qiwen said this child is difficult to deal with...
When you encounter a situation that you cannot handle, the best thing to do is to find another topic.
"Li Yan, is there anything that impressed you about this competition?"
There's really nothing impressive about it, as his previous competitions had him traveling abroad, but this one went directly to the next district.
Not interesting.
"If I had to say, the experience of going back to school after the competition was really impressive."
"You don't have to go to class." Chen Fan curled his lips.
"Hey, you're done with the competition, so are you still going to class?"
"Maybe not..."
"What classes do you have this afternoon?"
"Math class." Liang Tiancheng replied.
Ye Xin suddenly understood four words: Silence is golden.
