0029 Unfilial son

Pixel Bird is a side-scrolling game where a bird crosses obstacles and earns a point for each floor, it's as simple as that. And the graphics of the game are extremely simple, with birds and obstacles stacked with small pixel squares that can be distinguished by the naked eye, just like the pixel game more than ten years ago, so it was named Pixel Bird. The picture is simple and the mode is single, so the original author may have completed the development in just a few days. But even so, Xiao Heng, who didn't know anything about programming, couldn't do it himself, so all he had to do was recruit programmers.

……

"Look at what you did in the exam, fluid mechanics scored 38 points, structural mechanics scored 21 points, and this civil engineering experiment was absent! I sent you to college, and you gave me a bunch of failed exams and came back, and what happened to this absenteeism? You're going to be angry with me!" In an old community in Shanghai City, each house is only more than 20 square meters, including kitchens, bathrooms, living rooms and bedrooms, which are crowded with all kinds of furniture. In such a crowded house, a middle-aged uncle wearing an old worn out white vest, holding a report card in his hand, pointed to his son sitting on a dilapidated sofa and scolded, while the mother next to him leaned on the head of the bed, sighing silently.

The sofa is the kind of multi-functional type, usually used as a sofa, and when he sleeps at night, he turns over the cushion and becomes a single bed, Hong Jing is on this multi-functional sofa, spent his high school career, and after he went to college and began to live on campus, he will only experience this sofa bed again when he is on vacation.

The college transcript is sent by the school to every parent by mail, and today is the day Hong Jing received the transcript, that is, the one in the hands of the middle-aged uncle.

As the middle-aged uncle just said, Hong Jing's grades this semester can be described as miserable, with a total of six courses, except for the two open-book courses that barely passed, the other three were all hung with red lights, and even one was directly absent from the exam. was scolded by his father pointing his nose, and his mother sighed on the side, which was a matter of course.

Hong Jing sat on the mountain hair and was silent, of course he knew how he was doing, and silence was the best thing to do at this time, because as long as he had any rebuttal, he would incur his father's punches.

When he was in high school, Hong Jing's grades were very good, and he was admitted to a key university in Shanghai, and he also entered the university's famous major, civil engineering. His parents also had great expectations for him, and their family had been working-class since the founding of the country, and since his grandfather's generation, he had been working in a paper mill, and his father and son inherited his father's business. Until five years ago, the paper mill's profitability began to decline, and because of the high level of pollution, it did not receive government support, and the mill was getting more and more difficult, and it was laying off workers every year. Hong Jing's father was not laid off because he was an old employee, but his salary was getting less and less. It wasn't until the first half of last year that the paper mill completely closed down, and he was laid off, and he could only live on a tight life every day on his retirement salary and his mother's meager income from working as a temporary housekeeper outside. But even so, they still did their best to support Hong Jing to go to college, because as an only son, he is the hope of the family's future.

Since Hong Jing went to college, it feels like a different person, he was fine in his freshman year, and his grades are still the same as in high school, although he is not the best, but it is still easy to pass. But after entering his sophomore year, he was like a different person, and he began to be addicted to computers all day long, and completely lost interest in the courses of his major. If I don't usually go to class, the exam will naturally be a mess, and every make-up exam is also a matter of coping. So this is not the first time he has been scolded for poor grades.

"You said how could I give birth to such a son as you, work hard to support you, get up early every day and be greedy for darkness, I don't want to earn you more of your living expenses. Do you know how hard it is for your mother to help people out there every day? Unfilial things, I'm so angry!" Hong Jing's father threw the report card on the sofa, crossed his hands on his waist, and gasped for breath, it seemed that he was really angry.

The air conditioner at home has just broken down these days, so the door is open for ventilation, the old house is not well soundproofed, and there are many residents in this old building, and the children next door heard the movement and ran over to see the excitement, three or four little heads poked their heads out of the door to look inside, giggling and pointing.

"Look at what, go away!" Hong Jing's father was in a very bad mood, and when he saw the children looking at his family, he yelled at the door.

"Forget it, it's already been tested like this, let's work hard next time. At this time, the mother stood up to help speak, although she was sad, but in her heart she still loved her child.

"Work hard next time?" Hong Jing's father seemed to be angry, pacing back and forth for two steps, "What's the use of working hard next time, I received a call from the head teacher just now, he is now hanging too many courses, and the credits are no longer enough, if this continues, I won't be able to get the graduation certificate, I tell you." ”

"How can this be?" After hearing this, my mother also became anxious, if I couldn't get my graduation certificate, wouldn't I have studied in vain, without a degree, and I couldn't find a good job.

"What to do, you ask him. Hong Jing's father pointed at Hong Jing and said, his loud voice did not decrease at all.

"If you pass the make-up exam, you will get credits. Hong Jing, who had not spoken, finally spoke at this time.

"If you go on like this, can you pass the make-up exam? You hung up in your sophomore year, and there are still a few courses left that haven't been retaken. ”

Hong Jing lowered his head again and did not speak.

"I think it's the computer that caused the damage, and it was after you bought this computer in your sophomore year that you started to become like this. Hong Jing's father began to point the finger at the computer on the desk, which was purchased for Hong Jing two years ago with a lot of money, "I'm going to smash it now, this harmful thing." ”

"Dad, don't be impulsive. Seeing that her husband was about to go up and smash the computer, her mother immediately got up to stop her.

As soon as he heard that he was going to smash the computer, Hong Jing couldn't sit still on the sofa, so he immediately stood up and rushed over to stop his father: "Dad, you can't smash the computer." ”

"Why can't you smash it, I bought the computer, I'm going to smash it, even if this thing hurts you. "My father wanted to push Hong Jing away and insisted on smashing the computer.

"Can't smash, there's a lot of important stuff on it. Hong Jing tried his best to stop it.

In Hong Jing's eyes, in addition to his relatives, only this computer is the most important to him.

In fact, after going to college, his freshman year was indeed ordinary, but there was one thing that completely changed him, and that was computer programming. When he was introduced to software programming in the second half semester of his freshman year, he was completely obsessed with this computer language, and from then on, he lost interest in his major and put all his energy into teaching software programming on his own.

In his sophomore year, he had his first computer, and since then he has gone further and further down this road, and his professional grades have plummeted. Originally, he had the opportunity to change majors, as long as his grades could meet the requirements, but everyone knows that the exam in the first semester of his sophomore year was miserable, and he naturally lost the qualification to change majors, and it became what he is now.

However, although his professional performance is poor, he has made some achievements in software programming, and has the ability to independently develop small applications through self-study, and has also created his own personal homepage and hung it on the Internet. In this respect, he is better than those computer science students, and even compared to the programmers who are already working.

Hong Jing's parents didn't know about this, they only thought that he used the computer to play games, which caused his grades to plummet, and naturally hated the computer.

Hong Jing didn't have time to explain, and he couldn't stop his father after all, and the computer was smashed.

Looking at the computer that couldn't be turned on, Hong Jing cried so sadly for the first time.

My father was silently smoking a cigarette outside, sighing from time to time: "Hey, if it goes on like this, how will I live in the future." ”
