Chapter 1232: An Unexpected Surprise

"Take out Zhou Jiajia's files and let me have a look." After Li Boliang left, the name "Zhou Jiajia" circled in Xiao Qing's mind. She found it somewhat familiar and seemed to have heard it before.

However, she was too busy these days. Xiao Qing couldn't remember how she heard the name, but it was not very reassuring. She always felt that the name seemed to represent something, so she asked Sun Demao to get Jiajia's student file.

The Computer Science Department naturally had the right to access all the computer science student files, but it could only be those who were in computer science. For other students, Xiao Qing naturally did not have permission to read the information.

" Oh ?" Sun Demao was slightly surprised. He was baffled why Xiao Qing suddenly took notice of a student. Just now, Li Boliang came to recommend this Zhou Jiajia to participate in the research and development. Sun Demao was very angry with Li Boliang's ignorance. Raising it up in the face of the department director would indicate that he was abusing his position for personal gain by going through the back door. It was definitely bad to be noticed by Xiao Qing.

If Li Boliang looked for him privately, Sun Demao could probably help Li Boliang to do it. However, Sun Demao did not expect that Xiao Qing would ask him to take out the student's file.

However, since it was requested by Xiao Qing, Sun Demao was naturally duty-bound. He quickly logged into the database of the school intranet and entered his username and password. He found Zhou Jiajia's data file easily in the first year database as he entered the student archive.

"Director Xiao, this is Zhou Jiajia's student profile." Sun Demao pointed to the student file on the computer screen in front of him.

Zhou Jiajia's photo was very cute. There were two small dimples on the sweet smiling face. Sun Demao was amazed in his heart. She was indeed a pretty little girl. No wonder this kid, Li Boliang, set his heart on her. It seemed that Li Boliang wanted to pursue her as a girlfriend! If I had the chance, I should help match Li Boliang with her.

A freshman in the first year lecture. Xiao Qing was a little surprised. Isn't she in the same counterpart class with Yang Ming? In fact, there was no difference between the counterpart class in the university and the regular class. The classes and extracurricular activities were all held together. Even the lecturers were the same people. They were usually in the same classroom; even the exam was no exception.

Looking at Zhou Jiajia's appearance, Xiao Qing was more convinced! She finally remembered who Zhou Jiajia was! Last time, when Xiao Qing was together with Sun Jie, Zhou Jiajia was in the restaurant when she met Yang Ming.

Xiao Qing also learned the story of Zhou Jiajia from Yang Ming. She was a girl who was selfless for her lover. She could even sacrifice herself to block a bullet for Yang Ming, which made Xiao Qing grateful and admire Zhou Jiajia from the bottom of her heart!

It turns out to be her! However, this Zhou Jiajia is actually interested in wireless topics? This is quite a novel thing. If Zhou Jiajia is really interested in this, it is a good opportunity...

Although Xiao Qing was Yang Ming's godsister, she did not expect to be able to walk alongside Yang Ming officially one day. However, she still somewhat expected her identity to be recognized, even if it were a small-scale recognition.

It was also a good choice to be able to get in touch with the small circle of Yang Ming's girlfriends. If Zhou Jiajia was really interested in computer technology, Xiao Qing believed that with her knowledge, she would soon be recognized by Zhou Jiajia. When there was such a day if she were integrated into Yang Ming's small circle, then Zhou Jiajia would definitely support her.

Xiao Qing never thought about having a war or fighting for power in the harem. Her greatest wish was to get some small recognition from Yang Ming's women.

So thinking of it here, Xiao Qing said to Sun Demao, "This Zhou Jiajia, what is her grade in the professional class?"

Sun Demao quickly opened Zhou Jiajia's transcript and found that Zhou Jiajia's result in the professional class last semester was actually excellent! This made Sun Demao very surprised! In fact, having a score of sixty in university was already a blessing, especially for a freshman who had just experienced the college entrance examination. It was the semester where they were most unwilling to learn.

Zhou Jiajia, being a girl, could achieve such an impressive achievement in the professional class. It was quite rare, especially the results of the compilation class. She actually scored one hundred and fifty points, which made Xiao Qing a little surprised!

There were not many students who scored one hundred points, but there were also a few. But it was not surprising. After all, most of the topics on the exam paper were from the book. If one listened carefully to the lectures and studied the book, they would achieve a good grade. Including the programming problem at the back of the test paper, there were also examples of programs that have ready-made answers in the book. As long as one can remember, one can pass the test smoothly.

However, to get a hundred and fifty points, it indicated that the results of the practical class were also the full score of fifty points!

Generally, in the school's programming test, there would be practical questions, asking students to go back and write a program of their own design. There was no standard answer to this question. It was entirely up to the students to play around with their creativity. As long as the written program could be debugged successfully, it was answered correctly.

Such additional questions were actually an opportunity targeted at those students who had real talents and were unwilling to memorize only. Some of the more intelligent students were well-recognized, but they were unwilling to recite some conceptual things. In this way, as long as the program was written correctly, having a ten points score on the test paper would allow them to pass it after the addition. Such an examination was more humane.

(When Fishman went to college, the course structure was like this. He did not know much about other schools.)

However, no one would do this kind of question. After all, programming was a very fascinating language that was difficult to learn. It was harder to understand much compared to C.

In particular, the questions that came out this time were quite unconventional. It asked students to design a program that fully read and copied a floppy disk in DOS.

Most students still gave up the practical question. After all, this type of program not only required a well-written program but also required a completed program code.

The teachers who would be marking it would be stricter. If there was plagiarism, it could be noticed directly.

However, Zhou Jiajia not only wrote such a program but also supported a special track copying and weak sector copying while supporting ordinary disk copying. In other words, Zhou Jiajia's program could copy some software called "key disk!" For example, many anti-virus software in the early days were encrypted using a floppy disk key disk.

Although the encryption and decryption technology reached its peak in the later stage, floppy disk encryption had been abandoned by many manufacturers. Moreover, floppy disk encryption technology was no longer a top-notch technology when it was made public.

However, Zhou Jiajia, a freshman student, could actually write such a comprehensive program, which really made Xiao Qing a little surprised, including Sun Demao, who was also amazed as his eyes opened. He smacked the table and exclaimed, "This student is a genius?!"

Originally, Sun Demao thought that Li Boliang wanted to pick up the girl entirely and invited Zhou Jiajia to participate in the research and development. Now it seemed that this Zhou Jiajia indeed had real talent.

"Director Xiao, it seems that this Zhou Jiajia is just like you, the female hero in the computer industry!" Sun Demao, while admiring Zhou Jiajia, flattered Xiao Qing without leaving any trace.

Xiao Qing didn't have time to listen to his flattery. Xiao Qing initially wanted to bring Zhou Jiajia to participate in the project to deepen their relationship. But now, Xiao Qing had changed her initial idea. She really wanted Zhou Jiajia to participate in the research and development project!

This kind of student with a deep research spirit was a very rare material waiting to be forged. Her future achievements would certainly not be underestimated. Thinking of this, Xiao Qing said, "Let's have this student join us in our research."

"I think so too." Sun Demao's thoughts were also in line with Xiao Qing. Before that, he also wanted to go use the back door to help Li Boliang. Now it seemed that this Zhou Jiajia was really a talent. It was a pity not to have her participate in research and development.

"Let's do it this way. You can tell Li Boliang to inform her and have her report directly to the computer science teacher faculty building. She does not even need to participate in the interview." Xiao Qing took a pause to think a little before she continued, "Forget it. I will personally inform her."

"Okay." Sun Demao nodded. Sun Demao wanted to let Li Boliang owe him a favor, letting Li Boliang know that he put effort into it, so Li Boliang would work harder for him in the future.

However, if Xiao Qing wanted to notify personally... this opportunity would be gone. However, Sun Demao came into another perspective. Even if Xiao Qing informed Zhou Jiajia, it was not a hurdle for him to tell Li Boliang about it! Anyway, Zhou Jiajia's participation in research and development was already a conclusion. Wasn't it the same no matter who was notifying? When Sun Demao thought of this, he decided to call Li Boliang and tell the good news.

When Xiao Qing left Sun Demao's office and returned to her office, Sun Demao picked up the phone and dialed Li Boliang.

Li Boliang just finished the post-graduate registration. He was tired and full of sweat. He glanced at the time, and it was almost 1 p.m. He quickly rushed to the cafeteria. If he were any later, he would have nothing to eat.

Suddenly, the phone rang. Li Boliang glanced at the phone and found that it was the deputy director of the department, and quickly picked up the phone. "Deputy Director Sun."

"Li Boliang, where are you?" Sun Demao asked with a smile.

"I am going to the cafeteria to eat." Li Boliang didn't know why Sun Demao called him at this time, but his instinct told him that it was probably related to his own reckless behavior in Sun Demao's office.

"Li Boliang, you are not young. Why are you still reckless in doing things?" Before Sun Demao went into the main business, he naturally needed to teach Li Boliang a lesson first. Today's incident was not accidental. This Zhou Jiajia, in all likelihood, would not participate in the research and development.

"Sorry, Deputy Director Sun..." Li Boliang heard that it was about his matter today and quickly apologized, "Sorry for getting you into trouble! I don't know Director Xiao would be in your office..."

"Fine, as long as you learned your lesson!" Sun Demao sighed. "Director Xiao and I were working on research and development. You should look for opportunities to talk to me privately!"

"I got it, Deputy Director Sun. There won't be a next time." Li Boliang replied quickly.

"Li Boliang, tell me privately. Did you promise the female student? Do you have that intention to her?" asked Sun Demao.

"How could I...?" Li Boliang had his intention revealed and felt embarrassed. "Director Sun, Zhou Jiajia is indeed a computer enthusiast, and her skill is excellent..."

"I know. I saw Zhou Jiajia's test results from last semester. She is excellent!" Sun Demao said, "Let me tell you. Director Xiao has agreed to let Zhou Jiajia participate in the wireless protocol research!"

"Really!" Li Boliang thought that there was no hope. At this moment, when he heard Sun Demao's words, he was overjoyed. "Director Sun, thank you so much!"

" Hehe , it's alright. No thanks are necessary. Don't be reckless in the future." Sun Demao was delighted. It was easy to win people's hearts. Li Boliang would undoubtedly become more obedient.

"I won't! You can rest assured, Director!" Li Boliang promised.

"Alright, go and have your meal. I have other things." Sun Demao said, "You tell Zhou Jiajia to come to the computer science teacher faculty building. She just needs to report in directly without the interview. Recruiting her is a special case."

"That's good. I will inform Zhou Jiajia!" said Li Boliang happily.

Hanging up the phone, Li Boliang dialed Zhou Jiajia's phone ecstatically! In this way, he would be able to boast about his own merits in front of Zhou Jiajia. He believed that Zhou Jiajia would definitely admire him fully.

However, at the same time, Xiao Qing was talking to Zhou Jiajia, so Li Boliang dialed several times and did not connect. Zhou Jiajia was on a phone call. Li Boliang had to give up. He planned to call again later after he finished eating.

Zhou Jiajia's phone number was written on the contact list of the computer science department. Xiao Qing did not spend much effort to find Zhou Jiajia's number and dialed her directly.

Zhou Jiajia had just finished eating. She was strolling with Chen Mengyan, Lin Zhiyun, and Jing Xiaolu on the playground. When Zhou Jiajia's phone rang, she took it out and found that it was an unfamiliar number.

Zhou Jiajia was a bit baffled, but she still answered the call. "Hello?"

"Is this Zhou Jiajia?" Xiao Qing asked. She had to confirm the identity of Zhou Jiajia. After all, the contact list was made when she was a freshman. After so long, many students had changed their mobile numbers.

"Yes, who are you?" Zhou Jiajia asked, baffled. The other party was a woman, and the voice was quite sweet, but Zhou Jiajia did not remember that she knew such a person.

"I am Xiao Qing, director of computer science," said Xiao Qing calmly.

"Ah ! Director Xiao, hello!" Zhou Jiajia was surprised subconsciously. She didn't expect the director of computer science to call her personally, which made Zhou Jiajia somewhat flattered.

"I heard that you want to participate in our wireless protocol research. Is that the case?" asked Xiao Qing.

"Yes, yes." Zhou Jiajia quickly responded, "Director Xiao, do I have the opportunity to participate?"

When Zhou Jiajia heard that Xiao Qing personally called, she already felt something, so it was very exciting at the moment.

"I saw your test results for the last semester, and I also saw the floppy disk copy program that you wrote. It was very good, so I decided to let you participate in the research of our wireless protocol project," said Xiao Qing.

"Thank you, Director Xiao!" Such an unexpected surprise made Zhou Jiajia really happy. "I will cherish this opportunity with my heart."

"Come to the computer science teacher faculty building and report to my office in the afternoon." Xiao Qing said, "My office is on the third floor. If you can't find me, you can also call this number. This is my phone number."

"Okay, I will visit in a while!" Zhou Jiajia was really happy. She was finally able to participate in the customization of the network protocol. This was a very rare opportunity.

"Jiajia, what's wrong with you? You got so excited over a phone call?" Chen Mengyan looked at Zhou Jiajia with some curiosity and asked.

"Mengyan, our department's Director Xiao just called to inform me that she wants me to participate in a research project! This is a very rare opportunity, so of course, I am happy!" Zhou Jiajia said excitedly, "Previously, I registered in the morning, but the person who received me said that this research project only recruits graduate students or Ph.D. students. It does not target undergraduates. Later, the person who received me helped me to ask an insider of the department and said that it was not possible. I thought there was no hope. The department head just called me personally in the end, which really surprised me!"

" Oh ? That's the case!" Chen Mengyan nodded. She also knew that Zhou Jiajia was particularly interested in computer stuff, so she said, "Congratulations!"

" En , I will report to her office in a while." Zhou Jiajia nodded.

"Right, you just said Director Xiao of your department?" Chen Mengyan suddenly thought of something and asked.

"Yeah, what happened?" Zhou Jiajia looked at Chen Mengyan's quirky expression and asked.

" Hehe , you said that you were rejected before, so then why were you allowed to participate again!?" Chen Mengyan grinned.

"What's the matter? Mengyan, do you know why?" Zhou Jiajia asked, baffled.

"I..." Chen Mengyan spoke halfway and suddenly saw Jing Xiaolu next to her, and quickly stopped by talking. "Let's talk about it later."

Jing Xiaolu naturally noticed it. Chen Mengyan wanted to talk about something secret. It could only be shared among the sisters. Jing Xiaolu was still just an outsider, so it couldn't be said to her! Although Jing Xiaolu felt sour deep down in her heart, she smiled and said, "Jiajia, Mengyan, Zhiyun, I am leaving. I have classes in the afternoon. I have to go back to the dorm to prepare."

After lunch, Jing Xiaolu and the three people were much more familiar with each other a lot. She was content. It was a gradual process. She did not expect Chen Mengyan to accept her as one of them.

" En , then you should quickly move!" Chen Mengyan, Zhou Jiajia, and Lin Zhiyun said goodbye to Jing Xiaolu.
