In the office, after her nap, Nan saw Li Xuanyu with a sullen face, still modifying the code.
Nan didn’t pay much attention, thinking Li Xuanyu probably hadn’t finished in the morning and was busy all noon without a nap.
She rembered how, for her graduation project, she’d been revising her thesis every day.
Hmm... the final version... final version 1.0... final version 2.0... the real final version... the finalized version...
The revisions never ended, and all credit for that went to one person.
It’s said that every year during graduation season, many college students pray to this god to thank him for his outstanding contributions.
Nan gave Li Xuanyu a sympathetic look, thinking it wouldn’t be long before Li Xuanyu also needed to greet this god.
After all, it’s tradition.
Moreover, Jing University’s graduation thesis was stricter and had higher requirents than other schools.
Writing the thesis naturally beca significantly more challenging, reaching new heights.
Around two o’clock, Mo Jingchun, who had just woken up from a nap in his bedroom, glanced at the ti.
14:23
The system handover video eting at three in the afternoon.
He casually washed his face and walked out of the bedroom.
"Xia, I’m heading to the lab."
"There’s an important eting soon, unless it’s a big deal, report to after the eting."
"Okay, boss."
In the lab, Mo Jingchun didn’t do anything; he just sat there scrolling through short videos, waiting for three o’clock to arrive.
All the operating system code had long been compiled. The compiled OS code was right there, and the so-called OS handover was rely a formality, a eting for commoration.
Another point was for all the responsible parties to ensure they hadn’t backed up the entire source code of the OS.
At 2:50 PM, Mo Jingchun received an invitation to the video conference.
The mont he connected to the online conference, Mo Jingchun instinctively muted his microphone.
A few minutes later...
"Hello, Mr. Mo, please turn on your mic to test it."
As the others had already tested, Mo Jingchun did so effortlessly.
...
"Okay. Your audio is fine. Thank you for your cooperation."
Suddenly, an old man appeared on the video, causing Mo Jingchun to sit up straight.
This was a true master.
Although he had never been seen on TV or in the news, without a doubt, this was a true master.
Working silently for the country, such scientists, whether they’re big nas or not, Mo Jingchun thought, were truly worthy of respect.
At the very least, Mo Jingchun believed he couldn’t be so selfless.
At exactly three in the afternoon, everyone was present.
"Everyone, we et again." The old man wore a gentle smile.
In the next mont, the old man was full of emotion.
"I still underestimated your research abilities."
"I didn’t expect you to give this old man such a big surprise, delivering the operating system six months early."
"Just a mont ago, I experienced it personally."
"Honestly, it’s way beyond my expectations."
As he spoke, the cara pulled back.
He saw the old man, trembling, stand up with the help of the staff.
It was only then that Mo Jingchun and the others realized the old man’s health had declined drastically compared to last ti.
Last ti, Mo Jingchun rembered as if it were yesterday.
At that ti, the old man was full of life.
Silently, Mo Jingchun and the other dozen or so leaders stood up.
"I, as an old man, represent the nation in thanking you all."
When Mo Jingchun opened his mic, intending to say sothing, he found himself at a loss for words, as if sothing was stuck in his throat.
"The future is yours."
The online video conference was short, lasting just over half an hour.
In the lab, although the online video conference had ended, Mo Jingchun couldn’t calm down for a long ti.
Would there be another chance to see this old gentleman in the future? Most likely not.
Who can escape the cycle of life and death?
Even the ancient emperors who pursued immortality couldn’t, let alone others.
Mo Jingchun couldn’t help but wonder how long he himself could live.
Can the pinnacle of science achieve immortality?
Mo Jingchun didn’t know, because he didn’t even know where the pinnacle of science was.
When the universe finally perishes, perhaps immortality will still be a luxury.
Just then, his phone rang.
When he had arrived, he told Xia Xiaomin to handle all matters after he returned.
Looking at the phone, Mo Jingchun found it wasn’t Xia Xiaomin as he’d expected.
It made Mo Jingchun a bit puzzled that right after the online eting, Old Yu was calling him.
"Hey, Old Yu."
"Don’t call that; I always feel old already."
Mo Jingchun chuckled lightly, "But I’m post-2000, we’re two generations apart, so calling you Old Yu fits perfectly."
"Alright, alright, let’s talk business."
After hearing Old Yu’s words, Mo Jingchun also fell into deep thought.
To be honest, he couldn’t figure out the purpose of this operating system either.
Logically, with a dostic OS, it would surely involve purchasing pure dostic computers to replace the old equipnt.
After all, developing their OS aid to ensure security, preventing malicious system backdoors.
But so far, no company had allegedly received any orders.
Such orders wouldn’t be insignificant, yet in reality?
Up to now, there hadn’t been even the slightest related news.
It was rather strange.
Mo Jingchun pondered and said, "I find it strange too, but even if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up."
"Since the higher-ups aren’t telling, it ans they don’t want us to know. I think not speculating wildly would be wise."
"We, as project participants, don’t know the insider details, indicating it’s a significant matter."
After a long pause, Old Yu sighed, "President Ren also said this, but I don’t know why my mind is so restless."
"Hahaha, with the pressure you’re under, overthinking is normal."
"Maybe, talking of which, I do envy you."
"No way, research is also tough for , alright? I’m still a single dog up to now."
"Hahaha, the mighty boss of Candy Technology, if you wanted a wife, wouldn’t they line up for you?"
"If push cos to shove, having the state assign soone is just a nod for you."
Hearing this, Mo Jingchun rolled his eyes.
Who wouldn’t want a passionate love affair?
"Hang up, I’m going to find a wife."
"Otherwise, I’ll truly end up alone."
After hanging up, Mo Jingchun’s mind conjured several images, only to dismiss them one by one.
"Sigh... let it be."
After all, there’s a saying, "Don’t rush; the right destiny will co in ti!"
Mo Jingchun really found this to make sense.
In matters of the heart, one can’t force it, only let it take its course.
If soone is destined for you, you will eventually et them. If soone isn’t, they will just pass by.
With soone truly ant for you, they will eventually return to your side. For those without destiny, once they leave, they never return.
