Chapter 140
Computers are still a rarity in this day and age, and those who know how to use them are especially rare, and Tan Changlin is a bit of a head case
He did have a few skills before he dared to be so proud
When Xu Man spoke to Tan Changlin, he was more or less indifferent
Even Xu Wen felt that if this wasn’t Rainbow Island or a military base, this senior student might not even be willing to give her a look
Tan Changlin looked at Xu Man and the others with the same contempt and disdain as a city dweller looking at a bumpkin entering the city for the first time
Although Xu Man didn’t understand what she had to be despised by him
Did she look like she couldn’t afford to touch this expensive computer?
Xu Man did not care what his attitude was, only when she really could not understand would she ask him for advice
After all, not everything can be searched with the magic mirror
Later on, not more than two days later
The senior student’s arrogant attitude changed
Because he realized that what Xu Wen was working on was extraordinary
He put away his contempt, and changed his attitude towards Xu Man, becoming modest
His address to Xu Man changed from “Comrade Xu Man” to “Teacher Xu Man” with a bit of sarcasm in his detachment
Xu Man was too lazy to bother with him, but when she saw his attitude change for the better, she even took the initiative to ask for work and offered to give her a hand
Xu Man also let him do the hard work, he was happy to be the boss
Watching others work is more comfortable than working yourself
Why not?
Besides, watching too much computer radiation is not good for the fetus
After Xu Man finished telling him his requirements, he sat in front of the computer with an excited look on his face
He would sit in front of the computer for half a day, unless there was something he didn’t understand, then he would come to ask Xu Man for advice
On this day, Xu Man had lunch with Lu Yuanzheng, then went home to rest for a while and came back to find that Tan Changlin hadn’t even eaten lunch yet
Xu Man had been working with him for the past few days and knew that he was prone to sleeplessness and sleeplessness at work, so he had called Lu Yuanzheng in advance and asked his clerk to bring Tan Changlin a meal when he went to eat
Xu Man came to the office at 2:30 pm, and Tan Changlin’s lunchbox hadn’t even moved from its original position, and was sitting on the desk, looking like he hadn’t eaten yet
Xu Wen knocked on the desktop, attracting Tan Changlin’s attention, and then lifted his chin, signaling the lunchbox: “Eat your meal first”
“Later! I’ll be done with this bit soon”
Then this “a while” of Tan Changlin’s was half a day
When Xu Man was ready to go home from work, his lunch was still sitting there
Finally, he knew why programmers had such a high baldness rate
In addition, this kid was arrogant, but he was still really capable
The things Xu Man wanted, after all, had only appeared seven years later, and some of them were even technologies or materials that were decades away So much so that a lot of the content was a bit unattainable with the current level of computers
At the very least, Xu Man couldn’t do it
It was also particularly difficult for Tan Changlin But this child shaft, can not eat or sleep He used all sorts of methods to basically realize Xu Man’s requirements
Xu Man walked to the door, thought for a moment, then fell back and tapped on Tan Changlin’s desktop again
The disturbed Tan Changlin was similar to the person who had gotten out of bed and was suddenly woken up, his tone was very bad: “What are you doing?”
Xu Wen reached out when he first displayed the screen, not minding his bad temper, “You ate your meal first”
“I told you, I’ll eat later I’m about to finish this paragraph”
“There’s the next paragraph after this one But you said it was two o’clock in the afternoon when you ate, and now it’s six o’clock in the evening One day, you haven’t eaten this meal”
“It’s none of your business” Tan Changlin glared unkindly at Xu Man’s hand that was blocking the display, and if he hadn’t been concerned about the differences between men and women, he would have lifted Xu Man off the screen
Xu Man wasn’t in the habit of sticking his cold face on other people’s hot asses, and when he saw that Tan Changlin had been treating himself poorly again and again, his tone also chilled: “If you weren’t on Rainbow Island, and if you weren’t here to help me with my numerical modeling, I’d have told you to get out of here long ago! Even if you were to starve to death, it has nothing to do with me
I’m just doing my duty as a colleague by reminding you to eat If you die here because you stayed up all night and starved to death, I won’t be able to explain it to your original organization!”
Tan Changlin’s original unit was also a national character
To put it bluntly, beating a dog still depends on the master!
To put it nicely, not to look at the face of the Buddha, or have to give his original unit face
Tan Changlin exasperatedly stared at Xu Man
Xu Wen leaned on the edge of the table, looked down at him without flickering, not spoiling him, briefly and succinctly said: “Either eat your meal, continue to do this project Either leave Rainbow Island now and go back to your original unit! You don’t want to come anyway!”
Xu Man finished looking at Tan Changlin defensively, just in case he lifted the table and left
She wasn’t afraid of him losing his temper, but she was afraid that he would accidentally hurt her stomach
Who knew that Tan Changlin glared at her again, stretched out his hand, took the aluminum lunchbox, and opened it while whispering, “I’ll eat, Teacher Xu Man, don’t blow me off! I’m sorry, I was wrong!”
Xu Man was stunned and withdrew his hand, suspiciously sizing up Tan Changlin, thinking: this person wouldn’t have any special fetishes, would he? For example, does he like to be scolded and beaten?
Normal people, even if there is a toast, then it will not be before and after the attitude change so quickly
About Xu Wen’s gaze is too blunt, Tan Changlin endured, or opened his mouth to explain: “I do not like to be scolded problem I just can’t let go of this project”
He raised his chin, signaling the screen that was partially obscured by Xu Man
Xu Man drew back his hand and let out an “oh”
“I admit, I was particularly reluctant when I came, I didn’t want to come I wouldn’t have come if it weren’t for the fact that an unpatriotic hat would be placed on my head if I didn’t come” Tan Changlin said sullenly, “At that time, a project our group was responsible for was at a very important stage, and I would have missed a particularly important process if I had to leave To put it shamelessly, transferring me at this time is delaying the progress”
He could play a vital role in the project
Xu Wen didn’t say anything, pulling out a chair at the next table and sitting down
She didn’t have a pregnancy reaction, but she had a physiological reaction
Pregnancy was but about seven weeks, and prolonged sitting or standing would cause pain starting from the waist and moving up the back, and would make her sleepy
Xu Wen hit her back starting to hurt just now, and originally just wanted to remind Tan Changlin about it and then go home to sleep I didn’t expect this child to be disliked by her twice, but instead opened up the conversation
I’m afraid we’ll have to work together for a while in the future, so Xu Wen didn’t want to be so awkward every day, leaning her back against the back of the wooden chair, listening to Tan Changlin’s belated “self-introduction”
To put it bluntly, he was aggrieved, feeling that he had condescended to come to Rainbow Island to use his talents to kill a chicken with a bull’s knife
“You came to Rainbow Island to help, not voluntarily?”
Tan Changlin nodded and shook his head again, “Theoretically it was voluntary Although at that time, our leaders did not say exactly what they came for, we more or less heard a little bit about it I originally didn’t take it seriously ”
What kind of big project could there be on a small, distant island? What does he think it has to do with computers if he’s going to do any 3d printing? One would also have to know math
Especially when he heard that the project was also proposed by a female college dropout
At the very least, compared to the project he was following up, it was far worse in every aspect
The most unreliable thing is that the printer has not been developed at all
What’s the point of making a computer without a printer?
Oh, yes, Xu Man did not only work on printers
He also visited wind power, solar power and desalination
It was said that this woman standing in front of him had nothing better to do than come up with them
It wasn’t even for the benefit of the people, simply because it would be inconvenient for her to be here without electricity or water
Tan Changlin still couldn’t help but draw the corners of his mouth when he thought of this, the chopsticks in his hand pausing to look up at Xu Man
Xu Wen: “”
His eyes were a bit complicated, and Xu Man couldn’t tell what he was trying to express
It was something like, “You’re a woman who doesn’t stay at home, what are you doing?” Or “What do you care about national affairs if you’re not a woman who wants to teach your children?”
Or perhaps, “You’re a woman who works around the stove, why are you so powerful?” “Why don’t you go to college if you’re so capable, and stay on this small island to make a mess?”
Xu Wen pursed her lips and rolled her eyes, “You have this look in your eyes, as if I forced you to come I didn’t know you before you came to Rainbow Island, thanks!”
So don’t take it out on her, she wouldn’t spoil him either
Tan Changlin took another bite of his meal, “That’s not what I meant I I counted our mentor to come here by name At that time, although it was not quite clear exactly what to come over for, but about know that it is related to the military Regardless of ability or not, what we think in our hearts, we all signed up”
To come or not to come is one thing, to enroll or not to enroll is a matter of attitude
Xu asked to understand, he obviously did not want to sign up, but did not sign up and was afraid that others would say that he was unpatriotic, “You did not want to come, but you were afraid that others would poke you in the backbone, so you signed up and won the lottery?!”
Questioning, stating tone
Tan Changlin pursed his lower lips and hmmmed, a little embarrassed to explain, “I’m not being hypocritical either The project I’m working on is also important to our country as well, and if it succeeds, it will have a great impact in the world I’m not unpatriotic”
“I understand You just simply can’t see this small project on our island”
Tan Changlin didn’t deny it and only said, “That was indeed what I thought at the time But our leaders favored my name”
“Why? Does your leader have a grudge against you?” Xu Wen was a bit confused this time Tan Changlin’s attitude was simply too distinct, making it clear that he was unwilling to come
“Our leader said that it’s a good thing to do for the country, to come up with the best people in our unit”
Xu Wen was stunned and laughed nonchalantly
Tan Changlin blushed, a little annoyed, “What are you laughing at? What I said is true! I’m really the best person in our unit in terms of computer skills, and since I studied math in college, my professional grades have always been very good”
Very good is also a bit modest, in the country can rank the kind of name
If not he is still too young, this moment can lead the project alone
Xu asked to clear his throat, swallowing back his laughter, and said with special cooperation, “I believe”
No wonder he had such a stinky face when he first arrived, it did feel like a bit of a big deal
Originally unwilling to come, came to realize that he was still just an assistant, assistant is just, help or a woman younger than him, heart imbalance normal
Although Xu Wen does not agree, but can understand
Tan Changlin knew that Xu Man understood, his face turned even redder and apologized, “I’m sorry, Teacher Xu, it’s me who looked through the door, I shouldn’t have been preoccupied and had eyes that didn’t recognize Mt Tai”
He was already a relevant connoisseur, and in no more than two days, he saw what Xu Man was trying to get at
If this three-dimensional printing was to be successful, that ship outside Rainbow Island was definitely going to suffer
Not only this time, this technology would be applied in many fields, and the prospect was a bit better than that project of his
Because that project of his is now being researched by computer teams in many countries around the world, and it’s all about who can get ahead of the game
And this one, Xu Man, was definitely the only one in the world at the moment
Although the application in the computer field wasn’t too deep, it was important
Aside from the project itself, Xu Man knew far more than he thought
He could tell that Xu Man’s computer skills weren’t specialized, but the things she knew were more up-to-date and particularly wide-ranging
By following Xu Man on this project, he could learn a lot of unexpected things
If he went back and the project was still stuck in the same place, he should be able to get through the bottleneck
The important thing was, how many men really didn’t have any semblance of bloodlust?
When you’re thousands of miles away, you can’t take the news you hear about Rainbow Island seriously
But when you are standing on Rainbow Island, you can see with your own eyes that another country’s warships are blocking your own doorstep
Even if one was just an ordinary citizen, it would be hard to swallow this breath
Knowing that this three-dimensional printer of Xu Man’s had a high possibility of success, he was willing to study with Xu Man
Being able to learn new things here as well as doing something particularly meaningful, Tan Changlin’s attitude naturally changed
Xu Man got up and patted Tan Changlin’s shoulder, ”No matter what, the body is the capital of the revolution I don’t care what you were like before But on the island, I don’t support sleepless work This project of ours doesn’t need to overdraw our bodies to complete it either”
She pointed down in the direction where the Kaya was, “They won’t be leaving for a while If they can’t wait for us to get it done and leave, then I’d rather the project fail”
Tan Changlin nods and promises, “I’ll be sure to be out of the office by ten at night I will also eat on time in the future”
“Then you get busy, I’ll go home first” Xu Wen walked out with both hands propped up on his waist, shaking his head as he walked and lamenting, “It’s still good to be young! This old waist of mine ”
Tan Changlin: “”
He suddenly coughed
Being choked, a grain of rice was sprayed out of his nostrils
Wanted to drink water to rinse out, but ended up knocking over the water cup
Fearing that the water would flow into the computer, he hurriedly got up and messily took a rag
Is Xu Wen old? He’s young?
It seems that he is older than her, right?
A few years older!
Waiting for Tan Changlin to clean up the mess she made before turning back, Xu Wen had already arrived outside the door, and Lu Yuanzheng happened to come to pick her up
The two joked and walked away, Tan Changlin staring at them in a daze until they disappeared from sight
“Why are you free to pick me up today?” Xu Wen handed her hand to Lu Yuanzheng, letting him interlock his fingers with hers
Lu Yuanzheng asked her with a sideways glance, “Recently, which day didn’t I come to pick you up?”
Xu Man: “”
It seemed like since she was pregnant, he would take time tomorrow to accompany her for a while
Maybe to have a meal with her, and if he didn’t have time to eat with her, he would rush back at night to talk to her for a while, and then go back to the battalion to work overtime when she went to sleep
“I’m just asking casually, why are you being serious?” Xu Wen, who was at a loss for reason, chose to retort unreasonably
Lu Yuanzheng: “”
“You’re right” He responded good-naturedly
After a while, Lu Yuanzheng spoke, “It’s fine to stay away from other men Work is work, talk and laugh and get so close”
Xu asked, “”
She blinked and took a few seconds to react to the meaning of the sentence
Then she looked at Lu Yuanzheng’s reddened ears and laughed, “Lu Yuanzheng, not you? Can you be jealous of this? I’m a pregnant woman?”
What’s wrong with a pregnant woman?
She’s not even pregnant right now
After all the slander, Lu Yuanzheng didn’t say anything, only saying, “Anyway, you stay away from him”
Xu Wen wasn’t the kind of woman who would wow people at first glance, but at first glance, she would only feel that she looked good and was especially comfortable and friendly
She had a particularly good temperament, the kind of temperament that had ink in her stomach, from the inside out
Knowledge and knowledgeable, and more avant-garde thinking
That Tan Changlin at first mistakenly pearl as fish eyes, and now get along with only a few days already Xu teacher long Xu teacher short
It’s not impossible for Xu Wen to be moved
Of course, Lu Yuanzheng is firmly believe in Xu Wen, but believe with jealousy is not conflict
Watching her spend time alone with other men every day is just not pleasant!
Xu Wen rolled her eyes, not bothering with him
“I’m not working overtime tonight Do you want to go around or go home and rest?”
The doctor advised pregnant women to rest in bed more often, but Xu Wen usually didn’t move around much, and lately, because of her drowsiness, other than coming to work at the battalion headquarters, most of her time was spent either lying on the couch or in bed
It was still fine to move around properly
Even if he went to the houseboat to lie down for a while, it was also considered a change of environment and mood
Xu Wen rubbed her back, actually wanting to go home and rest, but there was one thing she hadn’t done yet
She said, “Go and console the ‘neighbors’ before going home to sleep”
Lu Yuanzheng: “”
He advised in a daywalk, “You’re pregnant, let’s not take any chances, okay?”
Xu Man’s plan was tantamount to walking a tightrope on a cliff
Xu Man did not say anything
Silence itself is an attitude
Lu Yuanzheng sighed softly, a little helpless
He first sent Xu Man home and let her rest on the sofa chair for a while, and then went out to get Dongsheng back
Lu Yuanzheng definitely couldn’t show his face, Xu Man was now pregnant and he didn’t feel at ease
Every time he went to the Kaya, he had Dongsheng accompany Xu Man
Lu Yuanzheng retrieved Dongsheng, who was playing happily with a reluctant face, and then took out some chilled fruits from the refrigerator and put them in an ice tub, and the three of them walked towards the shore
Dongsheng was a little reluctant to go, “They’re bad people, why do they still always give food to bad people every day?”
Xu Wen held his hand and sniffed, asking him back, “Then what do you think we raise pigs for?”
“To eat meat!” Dongsheng paused, frowning in disbelief, “But they’re not pigs, they can’t be eaten even if they’re fed”
“They can’t be eaten, but when wolves are fed and cooked, they will also wag their tails at us like dogs”
Dongsheng shook his head, “Teacher said they are white-eyed wolves, they can’t be fed”
Lu Yuanzheng, who was listening silently on one side, frowned, “Why did your teacher tell you this for good reason?”
Dongsheng didn’t say anything
Xu Wen also understood, “Someone said something bad about me?”
Lu Yuan Zheng added, “Did you get into a fight with someone?”
Dongsheng lowered his head and still didn’t speak
“Did we make an appointment to say things properly when we have something to say?” Xu Wen coaxed, “I don’t care what they say about me, but I’m sure I’ll be sad if you’re going to hide it from me and get bullied”
“They say you’re trying to be a ‘traitor'”
