Chapter 16 Don't forget your roots
"Yes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info" Takahashi nodded in affirmation, "I'm already learning, and the company has a lot of information, which is very good." ā
"No wonder. I think you're quite talented, and I want you to learn programming with me, but I didn't expect you to be already teaching yourself. The information in the company is indeed complete. Well, if you have any questions, you can come and ask me. Shin'ichi Nakamoto said.
He wanted to teach Takahashi, on the one hand, he felt that Takahashi had some talent, and it was a waste of talent not to learn, and on the other hand, the game department did not have any useful programmers other than himself. Too many tasks weigh on you, and it's stressful. Some talented Takahashi, if he can learn it, may become a powerful help to help him share the pressure.
Shin Nakamoto shook his head to clear his head, and went back to writing code.
Next to his code-paper, there were a few dot drawings. In the grid on each piece of paper, the main character, enemies, destructible bricks, indestructible walls, gold, ladders, etc. are drawn.
Among them, the protagonist and the enemy, are eight drawings, corresponding to a static painting, two animations walking left and right, two climbing ladders, one falling from the sky, and two falling into a pit and struggling.
There are three maps of destructible bricks, one in full state and two paintings with different degrees of damage.
The only remaining indestructible walls, gold, and ladders is a painting.
All the patterns are standard 8*8 pixel dot drawings, and the color use is within the four colors, strictly abiding by the specifications of the red and white machine game elves.
It should be mentioned here that the movable and destructible elements in the game, as well as the animated elements, are all "sprites" in a broad sense.
"I can do this. Takahashi picked up the paper on the table and said, "I can take care of converting them into code." ā
Shin'ichi Nakamoto checked that the dot drawing was fine, and he said, "You can do it." ā
Takahashi sat on the other side of the table with the dot drawing paper in hand, and compared it to the color palette of the red and white machine, slowly converting the dot drawing that a person could understand into a machine code that could be read by a machine.
The whole process is quite tedious, but for Takahashi, who is doing this for the first time and the novelty is still there, it is still interesting and not boring.
He checked it a few times to make sure it was okay, pinned the written code paper with a paper clip, wrote the purpose of the code on the front page, and handed it to Shin'ichi Nakamoto.
"I'll go first. Takahashi said.
Shin'ichi Nakamoto didn't look up and waved his hand.
Before getting off work, Takahashi went to Hiroshi Kudo's president's office to report to work. Kudo Hiroshi was very satisfied with Takahashi's work and gave him a reward slip of 10,000 yen.
"What have you been doing in the game department for the past two days?" Kudo Hiroshi asked, seemingly unintentionally, as he opened the teaglass.
"I just converted the dot drawing of Gold Digger into code. Takahashi said.
"Oh, you're still going to do this?" asked Hiroshi Kudo with interest.
"I didn't know it before, I just learned it, I don't think it's difficult, it's just a bit troublesome. Takahashi said.
"Well, I see, when Gold Digger is released, I'll help you apply for a bonus as well. Kudo Hiroshi gave the sweetness and said, "Learn how to make games well, making games is still very promising." ā
"Got it. Takahashi left the office and went straight home.
This morning he told his uncle that he would come home later.
The uncle said okay, saying that he was going to find out if there was a suitable house after work, and when the money was enough, he would rent it directly, and not live there.
It seems that Han Dagou made his uncle understand last night, the environment is very important, if the environment is not good, even if you want to live a good life, you can't live.
Get out of the mess and get a new place, and you should have a fresh start.
When he was shopping for vegetables, Takahashi listened to his uncle's words, and although he had money in his pocket, he still bought specials.
Walking briskly for more than half an hour, as soon as he arrived downstairs, Gao Qiao heard the voice of Han Dagou upstairs.
Walking upstairs, his voice became clearer and clearer, and he heard Han Dagou say, "Old Cousin, you can't want this money!
"What money?" Takahashi asked Uncle as he approached.
"Allowance money for orphans. Han Bugou didn't wait for his uncle to answer, and directly interjected and replied, "Xiaoqiao, do you also think that you have to take this money!
"Just take it, just take it, just get it, why are you looking for my uncle?" asked Takahashi rhetorically.
"Although the money was sent, it didn't reach us. Han Dagou's two empty paws clapped together, and said hatefully, "I went to ask and said what the 'Orphans in China Assistance Committee' was given." I went to find the address they gave, and there was no such committee. I think they swallowed up the money, and I want to find more people to go to the government and get the money back. They all said that it was money for us, so why let that foundation take it?"
Takahashi nodded, he looked at his uncle, this is his uncle's business, see what his uncle plans to do.
The uncle was silent for a while and said, "I think it's better to forget it, they say I don't want to take my money." ā
"You ......" Han Dagou was anxious for you to come, "Old Biao, why don't you open your mind." Yes, you have a stable job now, and you can't starve. But don't so many of our brothers and sisters have a hard time? Why should this money be given to that bullshit foundation, let them eat, drink, and be merry, and let our brothers go hungry and do manual work to get sick?"
Gao Qiao saw that the expression on his uncle's face changed a little, he stopped his uncle, didn't let his uncle speak, and said directly to Han Bugou, "Uncle Big Dog, Uncle has only been working for a few days, and he can't do without it, so he can't run around with you." So you can see it's okay. You should contact someone else first to determine the time you will go. Uncle must be here, do you think it's okay?"
"Okay, you kid, you've been playing the game for a few days. Okay, that's fine!, what do you think of what your nephew said, if you agree, just nod your head, and I'll come back to you when the time comes. ā
Uncle nodded.
"What are you going to eat tonight, if you eat well, take me a meal if it's good. Han Dagou stared at the bag in Takahashi's hand and said.
Gao Qiao opened the bag, it was full of some special food, Han Dagou shook his head, he said, "It's not easy for you guys, if I don't grab food from you, I'll leave." ā
Han Dagou didn't go downstairs, but went upstairs, there were many other orphans living in this building, and he thought he was going to connect with others.
When he opened the door to eat, after his uncle finished eating, he picked up a fallen grain of rice and said, "When you develop in the future, you must not forget your roots." It's not easy to work here or there, so you can help. Do you remember Qiaoqiao?"
"Remembered. Takahashi replied.
He didn't accuse his uncle of the right to be kind, and he was now saying that it was because of his uncle's kindness.
Thinking about his own energy, Takahashi said seriously, "I swear, I will definitely let them all live a good life!"
