"Finalize it." Zhu Yun took the registration form and put it in front of Li Xun, who was impatient. "How many times have you been sure?"

Zhu Yun said calmly: "Have you looked at it carefully?" I filled out all the forms. ”

She sat next to Li Xun and checked with him one by one.

"Also, you can't change this registration form if you hand it in, and you have to go to the capital to participate in the finals after the preliminary round, as well as the communication with the panel of judges, in addition-"

Li Xun snatched the registration form.

"Hey!" Zhu Yun stretched out his hand and wanted to take it back, but unfortunately Li Xun was tall and his arm was raised, and Zhu Yun was helpless.

Li Xun folded the registration form in his hand and threw it to Gao Jianhong, "Hurry up and put it away." ”

Gao Jianhong took it with a smile.

In mid-April, the registration was confirmed, and at the end of April, the entries were basically completed.

It was nearly half a month ahead of the preliminary round.

Zhu Yun found Li Xun and took care of the project he wanted from the base.

"What are you doing," Li Xun snorted, "I already have the energy to do two things, right?" ”

Zhu Yun: "......"

If you want to help, you have to be ridiculed, and there is no second place in the world.

In the end, Li Xun did not give Zhu Yun a task.

"Doesn't it mean that you have to win, then wait until you win to talk about anything else."

So for the remaining ten days, Zhu Yun was still stuck in the content of the competition, testing the number of jù repeatedly, and finally upgraded the software once.

It's finally time for the preliminary round.

The preliminary competition was carried out in the form of remote submission of works, and that morning, Zhu Yun got up early in the morning and was the first to arrive at the base.

"Yo, I haven't left for the night." Li Zhuangyuan carried his bag into the house.

Zhu Yun turned around, and Li Xun glanced at the computer, "Click send, what are you doing?" ”

Zhu Yun looked at Li Xun and asked in a low voice, "You say, do you want to test it again." ”

Li Xun turned on the computer and leaned against the table to drink water.

"What else to test after it's all packed, hurry up and submit it."

Zhu Yun's index finger went up and down several times on the mouse, but still did not click.

She said worriedly: "Will there be a problem with the platform?" ”

"There are a total of three platforms to participate in, Windows, Linux, and Unix, and it is difficult for you to come up with problems."

Zhu Yun was silent for a few seconds, and then said, "Will there be—" As soon as she said halfway, Li Xun didn't want to hear it anymore, so she directly reached out to help her press submit, only to see a whoosh, and the email was sent out.!

Zhu Yun looked at the prompt on the desktop that had been successfully sent, was shocked for a while, and sat down in a chair.

She didn't sleep all night last night, her mind was full of competitions, and she was so nervous when the work wasn't sent out, but now that it's been sent out, she is relieved.

Li Xun briefly handled the matter of the base and pulled Zhu Yun to the teaching building.

"Let's go, it's time for class."

Zhu Yun came to the classroom slowly, held on to the first period, survived the second period, and finally fell into Old Man Lin's class. She slept under Old Man Lin's nose in a daze, and when she woke up, class was already over.

In the afternoon, Zhu Yun went to deliver homework to Old Man Lin, accompanied by Gao Jianhong.

Gao Jianhong was as concerned about the competition as Zhu Yun, and kept pulling Old Man Lin to analyze the situation, and Old Man Lin was dizzy when he asked.

"Oh, look at you, what are you panicking about." Old man Lin held the teacup, "This is the preliminary round, do you think your work may not be able to enter the finals?" ”

Gao Jianhong said with a smile: "Isn't it more reassuring to ask more." ”

"It's not such an exaggeration, look at you all trembling." Old Man Lin snorted twice and said, "...... Although I have been scolding that stinky boy Li Xun for being arrogant, sometimes you do have to learn more from him, young man, and have confidence in yourself. ”

Zhu Yun stood aside and watched speechlessly, saying in her heart that you had ever scolded him sincerely......

"That's right." Old man Lin suddenly put down the teacup and flipped up the bag, "I just remembered." He took out a stack of papers from his bag, "The entry catalogues of each school have been sorted out, I have printed it out, you can take it and take a look." ”

Zhu Yun's heart trembled, Gao Jianhong had already taken the catalog, and he asked while looking at it: "Mr. Lin, have you seen it, give us an analysis of the competitors." ”

Old man Lin said: "What to analyze, there are only a few schools with strong computer strength, plus a few national defense colleges, there is nothing to analyze, the strength is real, you can see for yourself." ”

Gao Jianhong looked over there, Zhu Yun stood far away, it was not easy to interfere, so he could only wait.

Old man Lin said again: "I have already seen your works, and according to the level of previous years, there is absolutely no problem." However, in the end, it depends on the general direction of this year's competition system, and the focus is different every year. ”

Leaving Old Man Lin's office, Zhu Yun snatched the competition catalog, quickly turned the page, saw the name of a certain school, and stopped instantly.

Fang Zhijing really participated in the competition and named the team leader.

Zhu Yun looked back at their entry project - "USB Intelligent Encryption Interface".

When he came to the base, Zhu Yun searched for a series of USB flash drive encryption products and papers on the Internet, and read them for several hours without saying a word.

At the end of the sunset, Zhu Yun wrinkled her brows and asked the people around her: "Can you do the encryption interface of USB devices?" ”

Li Xun raised his eyes from the computer, "What? ”

Zhu Yun repeated, Li Xun tilted his neck and said lazily: "I didn't see it at a glance, you are thinking about something again." ”

Zhu Yun: "I ask you seriously, can you do it?" ”

Li Xun looked at her expression, touched his chin, and thought for a while: "Encrypted interface...... If you just want to implement the function, find a single-chip microcomputer as the main processor, and then engage in an interface chip, I am not very familiar with the hardware, and I will probably study it for a while. The software is very simple, just deal with the interface firmware and key management. ”

Zhu Yun: "Is it difficult?" ”

Li Xun squinted: "What's the matter, the princess has outsourced the base?" ”

Zhu Yun: "......"

Li Xun pulled the corners of his mouth and praised: "Yes, I know that I have found a job." I'll start with a good idea, correct your identity, don't sell yourself cheaply, we're not cheap. ”

Zhu Yun read the paper for an afternoon, her head hurt terribly, and she didn't have the energy to argue with Li Xun, she took a deep breath and said word by word: "I'll ask you, if you do it, how many days?" ”

The more anxious she was, the more relaxed Li Xun became, and finally simply tilted the stool, rested her arms on the table, and said with a smile: "The number of days depends on the quotation." ”

Zhu Yun: "If you are very, very satisfied, how long will it take for you to do it with all your might?" ”

Li Xun looked at Zhu Yun with blazing eyes, and said: "It depends on the requirements, there are so many encryption methods in this world, and the process is different, and it is possible to develop advanced encryption for as long as possible, if you just realize the function of encryption to interface, it can be completed soon." He paused and said lightly, "What's the matter, you should know all these common-sense questions, what do you ask me." ”

Zhu Yun didn't know, she just wanted to ask Li Xun, as if she could feel at ease after asking.

"I'm going to eat." Zhu Yun turned off the computer.

Li Xun looked thoughtfully at Zhu Yun's departing figure.

After a while, he got up and reached out to take the catalog of the contests that Zhu Yun had read for an afternoon and finally sandwiched in the book.

At night, Zhu Yun smoked on the balcony.

She leaned her back against the railing, her head held high, and she looked at the night sky.

Still no stars.

Zhu Yun wondered, this city is already considered a good environment in the country, why can't you see the stars.

About a week later, after the results of the preliminary round, Zhu Yun's group unsurprisingly entered the final.

There were three teams from our school that participated in the competition, and two of them made it to the finals.

Zhu Yun was in a daze in front of the computer.

Gao Jianhong discussed the final process with Li Xun on the other side.

"The presentation process is only ten minutes, followed by a demonstration of the work, which requires that the innovation, technical route and application prospects of the work must be tacitly demonstrated to the experts in a short period of time."

Gao Jianhong read the request to Li Xun word by word.

"There is also a defense session later, which needs to be noted, you look at what is written, 'Answer questions confidently, but don't be arrogant and boastful, and always maintain a humble and objective attitude'. Li Xun, do you see these words, modest! Objective! …… Li Xun? Have you listened, hey! ”

Gao Jianhong shouted several times, but no one answered.

Li Xun leaned next to him and smoked, his eyes glancing in the other direction - Zhu Yun was still there in a daze.

Gao Jianhong frowned, "What's the matter, you two." ”

Zhu Yun came back to her senses and hurriedly came over with a pen and paper.

Gao Jianhong talked about the final process again, and finally told again: "Li Xun, you must have a better attitude when you defend." ”

Li Xun said lightly: "If you don't worry about it, you can answer." ”

Gao Jianhong: "The practice is that the team leader answers. ”

Zhu Yun also said to Li Xun: "You are the strongest, you can be safe." ”

Li Xun glanced at her from the smoke and didn't say anything.

"Then it's settled." Gao Jianhong pushed the notebook over, "There is still a long time before the finals, we can polish the program again." ”

Time passed unhurriedly.

One day, Zhu Yun was writing code at the base. Sleepy at noon, she slept on the table for a while, and when she woke up, her eyes were blinded by the sweat in the corners of her eyes.

At the end of June, it was already very hot.

Zhu Yun looked out the window.

The sunlight shines through the bamboo forest, shining on the stone pavement, flowing and dappled.

The classes of this semester have basically been completed, and now we are entering the review stage, and it is about to be the exam week, and after the exam, there will be a holiday in mid-July.

Time flies too fast.

Zhu Yun tilted her head and saw the person tapping on the keyboard next to her.

A summer afternoon is invigorating. Before it was time to turn on the air conditioner, the room was stuffy, and shallow water beads condensed on the shell of the iced drink I bought during lunch, which accumulated from time to time and slid down silently.

The kung fu of opening my eyes, the freshman year is coming to an end.

This year, her mother did not specifically ask for Zhu Yun's final results, she knew that she had been busy with the competition, and called several times to inquire about the situation, and Zhu Yun reassured her.

I think you can rest assured.

Everything she could do was done, she went all out, and she didn't believe that she couldn't win against Fang Zhijing.

Because the finals time is late July, there is still nearly half a month to be in school after the holiday, the school for the convenience of management, the students who stay in school are stuffed into one building, Li Xun is different from normal people, and he goes to live in Ren Di's studio.

Their entries were tested and upgraded over and over again, and in the end, Old Man Lin didn't want to see them.

He left a sentence of "If you guys go on a business trip again, I'll retire directly", and then devoted himself to the work of another team.

In this way, two weeks later, on a sunny morning, Old Man Lin flew to the capital with two teams from his school.
