78 Spoilsport
"Genius, this is really a genius design!" Over at the Academy of Space Technology, Lin Xiong, who was in charge of the software design, was extremely impressed when he saw the Space Station Positional Control software developed by Li Chengqian.
"This is definitely the first modular, universal operating system designed for space stations and space shuttles." Lin Xiong was truly impressed that virtualization of the hardware could be achieved with a mere file size of 64K. As long as the hardware's driver was added, it could operate in the sky. This was an unprecedented initiative.
"With this as a foundation, going forward, we only need to develop corresponding functional modules for any new functions on the space shuttle!"
At this moment, Lin Xiong's doctoral student, Zhang Ting, had also completed the reliability and performance tests of the software.
"Instructor, the test is completed!" Zhang Ting said solemnly.
"The software can control the altitude of the space station to a centimeter!"
"It can control the space station's mode and position at any time. The precision of the operation is also to a centimeter."
"In terms of positional control, this software is very similar to the software we are currently using!"
"After computation, we found that the time needed to adjust the flight mode and flight altitude might be about 3% more efficient than the software we are currently using."
"We didn't find any bugs in the software. There shouldn't be any issues with its reliability."
"It's hard to believe that this was developed by a student during a two-hour competition. Li Chengqian is really a genius." Zhang Ting reported the software test results. There was envy and a trace of bitterness in his voice.
Compared to Li Chengqian, his hard work all these years was simply in vain!
"Zhang Ting, go and tell the admissions office to recruit Li Chengqian to the University of Science! I want to be his mentor and personally tutor him in his doctorate studies. We must nurture such a genius student well. We mustn't let him be poached by other countries or that will be a huge loss to our country." Lin Xiong immediately gave instructions after hearing this.
The University of Science was a university under the Academy of Sciences. It was the only university comparable to the Divine Dragon University. Moreover, most of the academicians of the Academy of Sciences and the Academy of Engineering were at this university.
"Also, send a reply to the Jinshan Province State Secrets Protection Bureau. This space station operating system is classified as top secret. It must not be leaked."
…
At night, after arranging Chen Li and Li Tianlan's hotel, Li Chengqian and Ding Ling quietly returned to their room in the hotel.
"Li Chengqian, you're really something. You can actually sign a contract with the provincial office and earn 10 million yuan a year." Ding Ling looked at Li Chengqian with admiration.
After picking up Chen Li and Li Tianlan, Li Chengqian carefully explained the details of the contract in Ding Ling's presence.
Therefore, Ding Ling knew about Li Chengqian's contract with the provincial office to sell them software rights.
"Ding Ling, this is between us. Help me keep it a secret." Li Chengqian wasn't being humble. He had a smile on his face and looked straight at Ding Ling with passion in his eyes.
Ding Ling was flustered, excited, and nervous to have Li Chengqian looking so intently at her. Her heart was pounding wildly, and her face instantly turned red. Her palms were covered in sweat.
There were many things that one would naturally understand when they reached a certain age. She was not a fool and naturally understood what Li Chengqian's gaze represented.
She also knew what Li Chengqian wanted.
"Ding Ling, don't go back tonight. Just sleep in my room." Li Chengqian was actually very nervous. His voice was trembling, and he could hear his heart beating hard.
When Ding Ling heard this, even her ears turned red. She was extremely nervous and didn't dare to look at Li Chengqian. She didn't respond to what Li Chengqian said either.
Silence was in fact a response.
Li Chengqian's heart was pounding. He gingerly approached Ding Ling and slowly reached out to hug her.
Knock, knock, knock… At this moment, there was a violent knock on the door.
Ding Ling jumped like a startled rabbit.
Li Chengqian was also startled. He stood up and cursed in his heart, "What a spoilsport!"
Li Chengqian was furious at being interrupted. He went to the door and roared, "Who is it?"
"Li Chengqian, it's me. Are you guys back?" Tian Wenming's voice came from the door.
"Teacher, we just came back." Li Chengqian reluctantly opened the door. Besides Tian Wenming, Zhao Peng, Jian Qingli, and Bi Jialiang were all there.
Especially Zhao Peng. He looked at Li Chengqian with a mischievous smile and kept looking into the room.
Bi Jialiang looked at Li Chengqian enviously. He also wanted a chance to be alone with Jian Qingli, but she didn't give him a chance at all.
After Li Chengqian opened the door, Jian Qingli entered Li Chengqian's room directly without a word. When she saw Ding Ling standing in the room neatly dressed, she suddenly heaved a sigh of relief.
"Alright, since you're all back, I'm relieved. Everyone, go back to your rooms and rest." Tian Wenming looked at Li Chengqian expressionlessly and said loudly.
To be honest, he was only worried about Li Chengqian!
From the beginning, when Li Chengqian asked to be alone, he already suspected that he was up to something.
Therefore, he had been paying attention to Li Chengqian, afraid that Li Chengqian and Ding Ling would do something in these two days.
Therefore, when he heard the sound of the door of Li Chengqian's room opening and closing, he immediately came over.
What he didn't expect was that after the others heard the sound, they also followed as nosy parkers.
Ding Ling got so shy, she glared at Li Chengqian before lowering her head and rushing out of his room as if she was fleeing.
"It's normal to have your first awakening of love at this age. I understand, but…"
"Kid, behave yourself and don't cause trouble. After your college entrance examination, you can play however you want. I definitely won't interfere." Tian Wenming warned Li Chengqian seriously before returning to his room.
"What a waste of such a good opportunity." Looking at the empty corridor, Li Chengqian's heart was filled with regret.
"After the college entrance examination, I must take Ding Ling on a trip alone to enjoy some couple time."
Li Chengqian felt like he was on fire and couldn't fall asleep at all. He picked up the computer and opened the core program document of the Divine Dragon Operating System.
He grabbed 10 medicinal wolfberries and popped them in his mouth, then he placed his hands on the computer.
If Li Chengqian wanted to calm down, his method was very simple. He just had to input fervently.
If he couldn't take it out on someone, then he would have to take it out on a computer!
"Focus!"
"Rational Thinking!"
"Mental Coding!"
The three skills were used at the same time. Instantly, the yearning that filled his brain disappeared and he became rational.
Lines of code appeared in his mind, occupying all the space.
His body began to convulse.
As he convulsed, the words on the computer screen scrolled crazily. It was impossible to see the words clearly.
