Chapter Ninety-Seven: Arriving in Shanghai
Shanghai City.
A bright silver flight lands on the airport runway.
The group dragged their suitcases, left the terminal, and got into a taxi to the hotel.
In fact, Hao Yun originally planned to come by himself, but Dean Li introduced him to the senior brothers and sisters who had participated in the finals before, and asked the three of them to bring him along.
Thinking that he had never been to Shanghai in this life, Hao Yun followed the old dean's kindness and set off with him.
Maybe it's because of his young age, maybe it's because of the shortlisted work that was nominated for the best creativity of "Times Youth Daily", and the brothers and sisters took special care of him along the way, and even didn't let him carry his luggage by himself.
Hao Yun was also a little embarrassed at first, but seeing that the senior brothers and sisters were so enthusiastic, he went with them.
"Senior brother, it's your first time in Shanghai, right?" After getting into the car, Senior Sister Feng, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned her head curiously, looked at Hao Yun and asked.
"Hmm...... This is my first time out of the province. ”
It's really the first time I've come here in this life, but I've come a lot in my last life.
Looking at the approach outside the car window, the expression on Hao Yun's face was slightly surprised.
Outside the window, the traffic is endless, the high-rise buildings are like bamboo shoots, the overpass is full of pedestrians, and the neon lights in the night are better than the stars hidden behind the night.
Although the memory of his previous life is blurred in many places, he still roughly remembers the section of the road leading to the city outside Hongqiao Airport, which is definitely not as prosperous as it is now.
Now, however, this prosperity seems to have spread from the deepest part of the land to the mouth of the Yangtze River. It's not so much Shanghai as it is some kind of city that exists in a science fiction movie.
Should it be said that it is worthy of being the first power of the People's Federation?
It's terrifying!
Just staying in Jiangcheng, there is not much intuitive feeling, but being in this international metropolis, Hao Yun still has some experience of the difference from his previous life.
"Junior brother, if it's your first time here, I recommend you to try the local specialties," looking at Hao Yun, whose eyes had been glued to the car window, Feng Shuting said with a smile, "I know a few good restaurants, and every time I come to Shanghai, I will go over to check in." ”
"Shanghai's specialty food?" Luo Guang said speechlessly, "Isn't Shanghai's food made in all countries?" There is no local food. ”
"Nonsense! Shanghai's local dishes are also very delicious. Feng Shuting argued.
Zhou Zhijian shook his head.
"I still can't stand the smell of soy sauce."
Retracting the realization from the car window, Hao Yun looked at the senior brother and asked.
"Speaking of which, where is our hotel?"
Luo Guang smiled and said, "Hilton! ”
"That Waldorf Astoria on the Bund?" Hao Yun was surprised.
Zhou Zhijian coughed lightly and said, "Of course it's a happy ......."
Hao Yun: "......"
Well, sure enough, he was surprised too early, he shouldn't have expected anything from Dean Li's generosity in the first place.
Hampton Inn is an express hotel by Hilton. Although there is a brand of a world-renowned five-star brand, it has nothing to do with five-star, and the price is naturally much more affordable.
However, Hao Yun thought about it, and this seemed to be understandable. After all, this kind of competition is not an academic conference after all, but a competition between college students, and the soft engineering institute can reimburse them for travel expenses and accommodation, and the support is not small.
Many schools with less generous budgets allow students to go to schools at their own expense......
The group arrived at the hotel, moved their luggage to their room, and then went to the restaurant to prepare a bite to eat.
Sitting at the table and brushing the circle of friends, Luo Guang suddenly let out a complaint.
"Gan! Xia Keda lives on the Bund this year! ”
"The Bund? Which hotel on the Bund? ”
"It seems to be...... Just one letter W. ”
"It's actually W," Feng Shuting's face showed a look of envy, "they're too cool." ”
"After all, last year's champion was with them," Zhou Zhijian complained quietly while eating the buffet delivered by the agreement room, "Maybe they think that winning a few more student awards can change their school's ranking." ”
"Think beautifully." Luo Guang sneered, but he still couldn't hide the envy in his eyes.
"Hey, but you say, if only we could win the championship." Feng Shuting sighed, supported her chin with her right hand and said.
"Who wouldn't?" Zhou Zhijian glanced at the two of them, "I have already won a scholarship in my sophomore year, and the instructor told me that if I want to get it once, unless there are any major scientific research achievements, or I will win the championship in this kind of national competition...... Even the runner-up is a bit difficult to top. ”
"yes, yes."
Hao Yun concentrated on eating and didn't pay much attention to this.
He has a very clear positioning for himself, he is here to make soy sauce, and by the way, he learns from the experience.
Race?
His programming attribute is only 3, and he hasn't pointed out the mastery level yet, so how can he compare with those big guys who write code with their eyes closed?
Well, although he can write code with his eyes closed, it is limited to some simple programs, and it can also pretend to be forced to people like Chen Wenchao who don't know how to program at all.
At this time, Luo Guang suddenly threw the topic over.
"Speaking of which, Senior Brother Hao Yun, it's your first time participating in this kind of competition, right?"
"Or else? I'm only a freshman, can I still take two freshmen? Hearing this idiot's question, Hao Yun couldn't help but complain.
Luo Guang smiled embarrassedly and said, "When I was in high school before, I didn't participate in any computer competitions or anything like that?" I think there must be a similar competition, right? Haven't you ever participated? ”
This is true, although the Xia Kingdom in this life is the same as the Hua Kingdom in the previous life, quality education has also begun after the new calendar, even earlier than the start of the Hua Kingdom.
But the difference is that Xia Guo's education department did not engage in all-round development, but instead lit up another educational concept of "professional training", and the result was a variety of competitions.
Hao Yun remembered that there was such a competition to sign up for when he was in high school, but human beings still have inertia, and he finally chose the path he was most familiar with - that is, to take the college entrance examination step by step like in his previous life.
"No, to be honest, I only came into contact with programming after I came to college." Hao Yun sighed and said truthfully.
The three of them glanced at each other, exchanging bewilderment and surprise in each other's eyes.
Luo Guang: [What is Dean Li doing??? 】
Zhou Zhijian: [The ghost knows?! 】
Feng Shuting: [He...... Is it really okay? 】
Looking at the eye contact of the three people, Hao Yun tried to participate, but the tacit understanding was not enough, so he had to give up and play with his mobile phone and swipe WeChat.
"The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" is set up to be updated automatically, and he usually doesn't need to care about it at all, and the book friends group is a group of sand sculptures who are flooding and urging changes, and he never reads it. Occasionally, I can see the group leader "Ning Dad" giving out red envelopes again, and Hao Yun occasionally grabbed it with interest a few times, but he didn't grab it, so he gave up.
It happened that there was someone in the bedroom group, so Hao Yun clicked in curiously.
Ziyuan: [How do you feel, nervous?] 】
Kenin: [Good brother, can you help bring some souvenirs?] I've heard that Shanghai's soup dumplings are good. (Tooth baring)】
Zheng Xueqian: [Give me a thank you too!] 】
These two dog things......
Hao Yun resisted the urge to roll his eyes and replied with a message.
[Call Dad, call Dad, and I'll bring it for you.] 】
After turning off WeChat, Hao Yun, who was almost full, said goodbye to his brothers and sisters, and planned to go out for a walk to see if there were any interesting things nearby, and buy some souvenirs by the way and send them back.
But at this moment, a line of light blue pop-ups suddenly appeared in front of him.
[Mission: Win an honorary award in the "Hope Cup" programming competition. 】
Looking at the task pop-up window in front of him, Hao Yun was instantly stunned.
This......
Whose mission is triggered?
