Chapter 256: Eagle Sauce's plan! Lu Ze is preparing to return home for the Spring Festival, and the final plan is launched!
(already edited)
Looking at the message on his phone, Zhang Wei couldn't suppress the regret in his heart!!!
"Damn it, why didn't I go on a business trip!"
If he had known this good thing would happen, he would have gone on a business trip (travel) to Zhu City.
Instead of sitting in the company stupidly, working overtime all the time, and even failing to sleep well.
This depressed mood lasted for a while. After calming himself down, he continued to work.
He continued to look worried as he carefully scanned the lines of code on the screen, wondering what was wrong with it.
Today, the sales of "Honor OS mobile phones" are booming, and everything is moving in a prosperous direction.
But even though the finished product has been produced, it doesn't mean that their entire hardware department can relax.
On the contrary, Zhang Wei and his entire department became even busier.
After all, there were only a few employees responsible for detecting bugs. Bugs might not appear even after running for hundreds of hours during testing, but some abnormal "error messages" were common among millions of users.
Even if the probability of this BUG being triggered is less than 1% in a hundred hours, it is still an extremely terrifying number when accumulated.
There are already two million pre-order users now, so the Honor phone will have at least tens of millions of users in the future.
This 1% is enough to affect the perception of more than users, and in the long term use, it may trigger more people, affecting millions or even tens of millions of users.
These seemingly insignificant "BUGs" must also be fixed. Otherwise, after affecting millions of users, if the entire "Honor Phone" receives bad feedback, then their brand appeal will be ruined.
All the efforts of the entire "Honor Company", including Zhang Wei and hundreds of thousands of employees, will be wasted because of these "minor errors".
Zhang Wei, who was still counting on getting a promotion and a raise in the future so that he could give his wife Weiwei and son a happy life, certainly could not accept this.
Moreover, this matter still falls within the scope of responsibility of their "Hardware Development Department", so it would be difficult for him to shirk responsibility even if he wanted to.
Just as Zhang Wei was struggling with the lines of code in front of him, a roar was heard.
"What is their software department doing? The source code of the OS system is so exquisite, why do they randomly add a bunch of things to it?"
"Don't modify it if you don't have the ability. My phone is so laggy and buggy. Delete it now."
"Sure enough, after deleting these lines of code, the problem will go away."
"I've already told you that as long as the program can run, don't add or delete source code. Maybe all programs are running based on this 'bug'?"
There were shouts and curses from several colleagues nearby.
They finally figured out where those particularly serious bugs came from.
It is because those guys in the software department, who are not well-trained, want to modify the underlying code and fix the underlying logic of the so-called "shit mountain code", which results in a bunch of difficult-to-detect bugs.
After all, although the OS system is open source and shared by companies in the Daxia Mobile Alliance, except for some principles, all other changes are allowed.
You can add some customized functions based on the original ones. For example, their "Honor" has several built-in promotional software, so that each phone can recover some additional costs.
You can even customize the UI according to your brand and add many unique hardware and program applications.
Apart from some software that must be shipped with the phone, such as the 'OS Store' software and accounts, and OS system patent fees paid for each phone, in most cases manufacturers can make major changes to the phone.
However, this is easier said than done.
The OS system's architecture in terms of software and hardware is very sophisticated. Once the underlying logic is changed, it is impossible for ordinary people to change it.
And you also need to ensure that after the OS system is changed, it still maintains the same smoothness and hardware compatibility. In the current situation where the development cycle is relatively short, it is best to use all the solutions of other people's "OS system" intact.
"That's right. If you don't know how to make changes, don't follow others and make random changes." Zhang Wei muttered.
It took the entire department several days to find the problem. This group of people is just adding to our workload.
If it weren't for this incident, he should have gone on a business trip to Zhu City a long time ago, and if he came across the "International Arms Expo", he would definitely go in to visit.
You won't miss such an important event as the 'J-35's first flight'!
Blame it all on the software department!!
Thinking of this, he felt extremely resentful and typed in the group: "This damn BUG made me miss the performance."
Someone in the group consoled him: "What did you miss? Isn't this air show supposed to last for seven days? This is the second day!"
“But there are no J-35s to watch later?” Zhang Wei typed this line without hesitation.
However, a shocking piece of news came out from the group.
"No, I heard from people attending the expo that the J-35 will appear once more at the closing ceremony. It's not too late for you to go now."
Looking at this line of words, Zhang Wei stood up instantly.
Without hesitation, he ran to the manager's office and said, "Boss, I'm going on a business trip to Zhu City tomorrow. I need to go home and prepare now."
He planned to take this opportunity to travel to Zhushi with his wife and children. After all, it was also a popular coastal tourist city.
The most important thing is that you can also see the arms expo, where there is the J-35, and I believe Weiwei will also be interested.
After all, as a couple who have fallen in love over time, Weiwei has also developed some feelings for these military equipment under the influence of Zhang Wei year after year.
Although I can't say I'm proficient in it, at least I can pretend to be a "fake military fan".
"Go ahead. I'll give you an extra two thousand this time so you can get good food, accommodation and transportation." The bald manager nodded and said, "Just ask me to reimburse you later."
He was still worrying about what to do if no one was willing to go on a business trip to Zhu City. After all, he had been too busy recently and would have to travel to another province for a few days, although he could still take this opportunity to travel.
But the people in the entire department are too lazy to deal with other things. It would be best if Zhang Wei is willing to go now, so that he doesn't have to entrust others with training.
At this moment.
Just outside of Washington, D.C., the Arlington County area is home to some of the most famous buildings in the country.
Inside the Pentagon Building.
Now, although it is still late at night, they are still brightly lit, and the entire building is as bright as day.
People were coming and going inside, and the phones in almost every department were ringing non-stop. At one point, even the paper used in the fax machines became tight, and it was a scene of chaos everywhere.
However, all the staff seemed to have gotten used to this unusual sight, and even the expressions on their faces showed the word "numbness".
If they go out now, they will probably be very popular with the general public, because everyone with dark circles under their eyes can go directly to the zoo to play "panda" without even having to put on makeup.
These people are just about to say "I don't want to live". Since the second half of the year, they have experienced this kind of day once or twice a week, and often the next thing comes after the previous one has not been dealt with.
The intensity of work in a month is more than in the past year, and the days and nights are often reversed. Is this still a life that a human being can live?
At this time, inside the Office of Global Security Affairs.
"Sir, this is the information you want." The assistant handed over a document.
Kimi Andrew took a look and saw that it was filled with densely packed intelligence information, including data analysis of the 'J-35' and 'H-20-Y', as well as a preliminary analysis of their performance.
For example, a preliminary judgment has also been made as to whether the 'H-20-Y' is really a 'supersonic stealth strategic bomber'.
After a moment, he threw the document out, and pieces of paper turned into flying snow in the office.
Even though he was always good-tempered, he couldn't suppress his anger. He stared at his assistant and said with gritted teeth: "This information is completely useless. I don't want to know how powerful these new weapons are!"
"I just want to know how Daxia developed it. Are we in the Eagle Sauce blind? Or are the intelligence departments all fucking dead?"
"Why is there no intelligence information? Where did these things come from? When did they start developing them? What's the progress?"
"This is what I want to know!"
Now it is not a question of whether the weapons are powerful or not, but to figure out why Daxia can suddenly produce a "supersonic stealth strategic bomber".
Even the Americans themselves are confused by this thing. Northrop Grumman has spent countless amounts of money but still hasn't figured it out. And yet, Daxia suddenly comes up with this "god-defying artifact"?
If the congressmen knew about this, everyone would be in trouble.
"Sir, we can't get much information for now." The assistant shook his head dejectedly.
"They are all a bunch of trash." Kimi Andrew hammered the table hard. The cracks on the table alone were enough to show how much pain it had endured during this period of time.
This time, as in the past, both the 'J-35' and the 'H-20-Y' caught them off guard.
There is only that one 'J-15', which is the carrier-based aircraft that they had predicted Daxia would complete its first flight this year, but what can this change?
"We must give an explanation." Kimi Andrew's eyes twitched: "Our plan must be more radical."
"If we intensify the research and development of new weapons, we will make some big moves during this period."
Whether it is the 'Ford-class aircraft carrier' that has entered the final stage, or the 'DDG-1000' that has increased its research and development efforts, or even the 'space-based program' that has entered the preparation stage.
Even if he fails to build it, as long as he can attract some attention, it will be considered as completing the mission. He only has one year left in his term, and he does not want to bear such a heavy "guilt".
If this is not enough to quell the anger, then those people in the Intelligence Department will have to take the blame.
As for this matter, he felt that his Global Security Affairs Department and even the entire Ministry of Defense had no fault in it because they were completely unaware of it beforehand.
the next day.
LLNL laboratory, main building experimental area.
It was still the familiar position and the two familiar figures. Everyone in the lab had gotten used to these two people's slacking off.
Although most people were jealous and envious, they did not dare to interfere. After all, one of them was a highly anticipated 'newcomer' who was promoted to 'C-level' authority in a short period of time and was even heading towards becoming a 'B-level' employee.
The other woman is even more bad-tempered. She is the emperor here. Even the director of the LLNL laboratory has to be cautious when talking to her.
Looking at the people coming and going, Lu Ze glanced at the little head sleeping on the table next to him.
"Don't sleep on your stomach. The table is too cold. Be careful not to catch a cold." Looking at Lucy's dazed look, he pulled her up and hugged her in his arms, accusing her in a cold tone, "I told you not to play games so late, but you didn't listen."
Knowing that she had to go to work the next day, this girl played games until one or two in the morning before going to bed. If it were Da Xia, she would definitely be a "net addict girl".
"I won't do that next time." Lucy muttered while trying to cheer herself up.
at this time.
Lu Ze suddenly thought of something and pinched her cheek to revive Lucy. He asked, "By the way, when will our lab have winter break?"
"Why haven't you sent out a notice yet?"
It's already December. Winter vacation here usually runs from January to February, so he has to prepare early.
Hearing this, Lucy thought carefully in her confused mind: "It seems to start from January 1th and the holiday will last until February th."
Here in America, winter break at universities can be as short as three weeks or as long as four weeks.
The LLNL laboratory was able to give its graduate students such a long time only because of Lucy's kindness, otherwise two weeks would have been too much.
However, Lu Ze frowned and said in frustration: "There is not enough time."
"What's wrong? Isn't one month long enough?" Lucy said with an innocent expression.
This is more than a month's vacation, enough time to travel around the world.
"You forgot that our Spring Festival next year is your 'Saint Valentine's Day', which will not start until February 2th." Lu Ze frowned: "Aren't we going back to Daxia to celebrate the Spring Festival?"
St. Valentine's Day is Valentine's Day, and the Spring Festival in 10 happens to be February 2th.
But the laboratory is only open until February 2th, so he won’t be able to celebrate the New Year at home.
Hearing this, Lucy didn't take it seriously at all: "It doesn't matter, I can take the spring break at the same time and postpone my return for an extra half month."
After saying that, she used Lu Ze as a pillow and dozed off with her eyes closed.
Lu Ze didn't feel much about this kind of intimate contact. Except for the last step, Lucy had already been completely eaten up.
I just felt a slight sense of suffocation.
Lu Ze let out a long sigh: "That's good, I'll make you something delicious when I get back."
He wanted to take this opportunity to bring Lucy back to his hometown to meet his parents, but the situation this time was different from last time.
Last time she just visited as a good friend, but this time Lucy really came as a 'future daughter-in-law'.
“I need to call my mom first,” Lu Ze thought to himself.
Such good news naturally needs to be told to Lu's father and mother in advance, and they should be prepared in advance.
Even when he returns to China, he should also hand over the largest "top-level technology" equipment to date to Daxia, and these also need to be arranged in advance.
PS: Please give me a monthly ticket!!
