Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations

53 Teammate

Zhao Peng waited for twenty minutes before Li Chengqian stopped.

In these twenty minutes, Li Chengqian’s fingers didn’t stop at all. He wrote a total of 225 lines of code.

Although Zhao Peng wasn’t very good technically, he knew the programming speed of programmers.

As long as he could write 100 lines of effective code a day, he was already at the level of a world-class programmer.

In the past 20 minutes, Li Chengqian had written 225 lines of code. He was already twice as good as a world-class programmer.

What made Zhao Peng even more amazed was that in 20 minutes, Li Chengqian actually didn’t make a single correction. This meant that Li Chengqian was especially confident that his coding was flawless.

Of course, there was another possibility, which was that Li Chengqian was simply blindly coding.

If he hadn’t heard about Li Chengqian’s Data Restoration software and what happened with Liu Wendao, Zhao Peng would definitely have thought that Li Chengqian was blindly coding.

Now, he only had one feeling, and that was to concede defeat!

He was indeed awesome!

“Hello, Li Chengqian. I’m Zhao Peng from Grade 12 Class 2. I…” Seeing Li Chengqian stop, Zhao Peng quickly introduced himself.

“May I ask if your team is still short of one person? May I join your team?” Zhao Peng asked with an expectant look.

“How did you know about me? Why do you wish to join my team? What can you do after joining my team?” Li Chengqian asked curiously.

“I knew you when you scored full marks,” Zhao Peng answered honestly. Because he scored full marks, the entire province’s third-year students would probably remember Li Chengqian’s name.

“I want to join your team because I know that your skills are very good. If I join your team and follow you, I’ll definitely be able to enter the top 50, a lousy student like me would also be able to enter Divine Dragon University.” Zhao Peng was very honest and straightforward.

“You know that my skills are good? How do you know?” Li Chengqian became serious. Other than Officer Wang Limin, he didn’t seem to have revealed his programming skills to anyone.

At this point in time, only the relevant personnel at the Municipal Bureau knew that his skills were not bad.

How did this little fatty know?

“My uncle is in the Internet Security department of the Municipal Bureau. He was the one who told me,” Zhao Peng said nervously.

“Oh, so I see.” Li Chengqian suddenly understood. This way, it made sense. Li Chengqian thought for a moment and said, “Then tell me now, what can you do?”

“My… hand speed is relatively fast. I can be your assistant. I also have a better understanding of where to eat and what to do in Tianbao City. I can be in charge of both aspects.” Zhao Peng had initially wanted to say that his programming skills were not bad, but when he thought of Li Chengqian’s skills, he really couldn’t bring himself to say so.

Compared to Li Chengqian, his skills were too lousy.

“Hand speed is relatively fast?” Li Chengqian’s eyes lit up, and a very good idea came to him.

Don’t get the wrong idea. Li Chengqian didn’t have any bad intentions. He just wanted Zhao Peng to become his input tool and help him share the workload.

“How’s your typing speed?” Li Chengqian continued to ask.

“About 100 Chinese characters per minute if I take into consideration accuracy,” Zhao Peng answered honestly. This typing speed was all because of his gaming.

Li Chengqian did a mental calculation. If this speed was used to enter codes, he should be able to enter 150 characters in a minute.

“Have you learned C language?” Li Chengqian continued to ask.

“I’ve learned it before. I obtained a C Language Level Two Certificate last year,” Zhao Peng answered honestly. He realized that he was even more nervous when facing Li Chengqian than when facing a teacher. His usual cheeky smile had completely disappeared.

“Sit down and show me what you’ve got!”

Zhao Peng sat down excitedly. Although Li Chengqian hadn’t explicitly agreed, asking him to sit down and give it a try meant that he had got one foot in the door.

“Don’t do this rubbish. I’ll read, and you’ll type.” Li Chengqian shifted his gaze to the computer, and his fingers started moving again. He dictated the codes for Zhao Peng to type as he kept writing them.

“Awesome, too awesome! As expected of Awesome Li! Is he even human?” Zhao Peng was stunned by his performance.

Three hours later…

[Divine Dragon Optimization software completion rate: 75%!]

Compared to this morning, the completion rate had increased by 10%.

Li Chengqian looked at the completion rate displayed on the Divine Dragon and nodded in satisfaction. “With some help, the efficiency has increased a lot.”

He completed 8% and Zhao Peng completed 2%.

If Zhao Peng kept helping him, the software would be completed on Saturday instead of Sunday.

Li Chengqian packed up his computer and walked out of the library in high spirits.

Zhao Peng followed behind Li Chengqian. His face was pale, and his eyes were listless. He was totally drained and exhausted. His hair and face were covered in grease, as if he had been gruesomely tortured.

Even when he walked, Zhao Peng was trembling. He looked like he had been drained of all his energy.

“If you’re too tired, go back and rest first. I’ll tell Teacher Tian Wenming about you joining our team,” Li Chengqian said, feeling sorry for him.

“Captain, I’m not tired! I’ll go to Teacher Tian Wenming’s office with you.” Zhao Peng straightened his back and forced himself to speak. At noon today, Teacher Tian Wenming was going to announce the participants list.

Zhao Peng had to go and see if his name was on the list before he could be at ease.

At such a critical moment, he had to persevere no matter how tired he was.

If there were any unexpected developments, he could at least resolve it.

“Beast, he’s simply a beast. He is good in his studies, good in his skills, and even his stamina is so good. We are nothing compared to him!” Seeing Li Chengqian’s energetic appearance, Zhao Peng turned green with envy.

“Actually, you don’t have to worry. Teacher Tian doesn’t know my skills and doesn’t think highly of me.”

“Therefore, he basically won’t care about this team. He won’t care if you join my team.”

“Everyone’s focus is on Bi Jialiang’s team now.” Li Chengqian instantly understood what Zhao Peng was worried about.

To put it bluntly, everyone felt that Li Chengqian didn’t have any hope of getting into the top 50 in the country, so they didn’t care much about the remaining spot in Li Chengqian’s team.

What everyone cared about was the remaining spot in Bi Jialiang’s team.

In their opinion, Bi Jialiang had a chance of entering the top 50.

...

As long as he joined Bi Jialiang’s team, there was a high chance that he would be qualified to study at Divine Dragon University without having to take the entrance exam.

In the past few days, other than Jian Qingli who wanted to join Li Chengqian’s team, only Zhao Peng asked to join his team.

It was impossible for him to allow Jian Qingli to join! Li Chengqian would only make her watch him win the championship, there was no way he would bring her into his team to win the championship together.

Zhao Peng spoke sincerely and was not dislikable. He had also been rather obedient so far.

In addition, Zhao Peng’s relative was at the Municipal Bureau. After much consideration, Li Chengqian decided to let Zhao Peng join his team.

In any case, it would be a waste not to add Zhao Peng.

Because no one felt that he would achieve much in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition.

“That’s because they’re blind and don’t know how powerful you are, Captain. If the people in the school knew about your skills, I wouldn’t have been able to get this spot so easily.” Zhao Peng’s eyes were filled with admiration. He wasn’t pretending at all.

He had truly witnessed Li Chengqian’s prowess in the past three hours!

Most of the codes Li Chengqian read out was difficult programming. There were very few C-language codes. Although he typed in the codes, he didn’t actually understand the specific meaning at all.

Although he had worked with Li Chengqian for three hours, he still didn’t understand what Li Chengqian was writing and what it was for.

...

“When the results of this Junior Informatics Programming Competition are out, those who don’t believe you now will definitely be so shocked that their jaws will drop to the ground and they will regret it.” Zhao Peng was extremely confident about this.

Then, Zhao Peng said firmly, “Captain, don’t stop me. I have to go to Teacher Tian’s office. I won’t be at ease if I don’t see my name reported. This is the admission ticket to Divine Dragon University.”

“Alright, I had wanted you to go back and take a nap, so that we can continue writing codes in the afternoon.”

“If you are not going to take a rest, we’ll go back to the library to continue after signing up at Teacher Tian’s place,” Li Chengqian said with a smile.

“What?” Zhao Peng was dumbfounded. His entire body trembled. He almost cried. “Captain, you’re still writing codes?”

“Yes!” Li Chengqian replied without turning his head.

“Captain, in that case you have to at least tell me what this software does, right?” Zhao Peng accepted his fate.

“An Android app.”
