Chapter 13
SSD's home of the fraternity, at this time, in the large conference room, all the members except the rookie were present, staring at the picture playing on the TV.
It was a footage of rookies recorded at last night's party, and Chairman Charles asked, "Name the first rookie that memorizes you." ”
Eric smiled and said, "Tommy Hawke, that guy was in the limelight at last night's party. ”
"Jason White!" Another voice rang out, a different name was spoken, and to Eric's surprise, most of the people present nodded their heads in agreement, agreeing that Jason White was even more impressive.
Eric pointed to the TV with some confusion, which was showing Tommy Hawk performing a little magic trick to a group of girls, making the girls smile: "That guy left with two BDP girls before twelve o'clock, and he was obviously the best newcomer last night." ”
"You can't just watch the footage, in fact, I was more impressed by the maggot from Jason White." The house manager looked at Eric at this time and said in a firm tone, "I bet that guy will succeed in passing our test and become our brother." ”
"What did he do?" Eric asked the other man.
The housing manager told Eric what he had seen and heard: "That guy took a few drunk rookies and ran to the gate of the Order of the Phoenix, and peed on them, and the other party rushed up and punched him, but he couldn't stop excreting, but he urinated all over his body, and under his leadership, several rookies all used the Order of the Phoenix as a toilet, and it was hard for people to ignore him with leadership and expressiveness." ”
"Well done!" After listening to this, Eric said convincingly.
Charles wrote Jason White's name with a signature pen on the whiteboard next to him, and then went on to ask, "Second name." ”
Most of the old birds said Tommy Hawk's name this time, and a rookie can take two chicks at the first party, which is more than the old birds did when they were rookies.
Charles writes Tommy Hawke and continues to ask: "Third ......"
In this way, he asked again and again, and when no one said the rookie name he remembered, nine names were left on the blackboard, Charles looked at the nine names on the whiteboard, then turned around, looked at the more than thirty brothers, and said:
"Go and prepare, determine their call for work, and then bring these nine maggots over, and the hellish assessment of the SSD begins."
“Yeah!” A group of people cheered loudly and got up and rushed out of the conference room.
……
In the library, Tommy Hawk skillfully used the Apple2 on the workbench to complete the borrowing records, then opened his Osborne 1, ran the installed SuperCalc spreadsheet software, and placed a stopwatch on the desktop, turned on the timer, and quickly began to do the same entry according to the records.
Maya Gibbons was walking around the shelves to check the deterioration of the books, when she heard the loud tapping of the keyboard on the other side of the workbench, and walked over to find Tommy using the laptop she had brought to enter the form, and asked with some curiosity, "Tommy, what are you doing?" ”
"Nothing, do the same job with another system's spreadsheet software and see which one is more efficient." Tommy's eyes were fixed on the Osborne 1 laptop screen, and his mouth replied to Maya.
Maya walked over to Tommy's side and looked at the changing tables and numbers on the tiny screen, "What's the point?" ”
"Test, in addition to SuperCalc, there are Lotus1-2-3, CalcStar and other table software, at present, the most efficient is Lotus1-2-3 on IBM desktop computers, the same work, the slowest time, but the premise is to remember its cumbersome operation key combinations, followed by Microsoft's Multiplan, the difficulty of operation is slightly lower than the former, but the version is updated too fast, and every time it is like a restart, the user needs to re-record the use of the softwareThe slowest time to use is VisiCalc on the Apple 2, which is the library computer. After Tommy finished the same amount of work, he pressed the stop button on the stopwatch and said to Mr. Maya.
Maya Gibbons was a little surprised to hear Tommy's words, she had been thinking that this boy was just coming to the library for a temporary part-time job, and he would leave here as soon as he found other better part-time jobs, but she didn't expect him to come here to work on time every day, and he was quiet and friendly, reading computer-related books in his seat most of the time.
"Purpose? Write some software testing articles for computer magazines and earn manuscript fees? Maya gently stroked the laptop computer that Tommy brought with her hand, and asked with a smile, but after asking, she felt that the other party was unlikely to earn the manuscript fee, because the price of the computer in front of her was 1795 yuan, and now there are still a few students in the whole school who have personal computers, but she heard before that Tommy bought five different personal computers in one go.
Tommy picked up the water cup and took a sip of water, staring at the computer, and said to Maya: "No, it's my personal test of these software, I always have to find something to do when I finish the homework assigned by the teacher, and I'm currently studying how to make the small program I write compatible with opening Lotus1-2-3 spreadsheet documents." ”
"You don't look like those who are passionate about software development." Maya said with a smile when she heard Tommy's words.
Tommy said frankly to Maya: "I really don't like software development, I just think these software can be more convenient, so I copy them and optimize them, but the workload is relatively large, and a lot of the work is still in the brain ideation stage." ”
"Sounds good, come on." Maya complimented Tommy, then left the workbench.
Seeing that his time for work was approaching, and the girl who had replaced him had already arrived, Tommy put away his computer, made the last cup of coffee, opened a magazine, and prepared to spend the last five minutes of this part-time job.
At this time, two white men dressed as ninjas suddenly walked in quickly outside the library, and the girl who replaced Tommy at the workbench watched in surprise as the two ninjas walked towards her, thinking that she was going to kidnap her, and just as she was about to exclaim, one of the two ninjas made a shushing gesture to her, and then walked to Tommy, who was drinking coffee and reading a magazine next to her.
"Friend~" a ninja said to Tommy.
Tommy subconsciously raised his head, a knitted hat was directly put on Tommy's head, covering his eyes, and then the two skillfully sealed his mouth with duct tape, one of the strong ninjas carried Tommy and rushed out of the library quickly, one of the ninjas ran back, picked up Tommy's computer, and smiled apologetically at the girl:
"I'm sorry, I forgot to take his computer."
Then sneakily and quickly evacuated, and it took no more than thirty seconds before and after.
"What happened?" Maya saw the girl looking at the main entrance of the library, and walked over and asked.
The girl retracted her gaze and looked at Maya: "There are two ninjas who kidnapped Tommy, do we need to call the police?" ”
"Didn't you apply to join a sorority or something?" After listening to the girl's description, Maya asked the other party with a smile.
The girl shook her head: "No." ”
"Then you're going to miss out on a lot of happy experiences." Maya smiled at the girl: "This is the assessment period for newcomers to the fraternity or sorority, there is no need to call the police, we just need to wish Tommy good luck." ”
