It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when Chen Xiao returned home, and Chen Qiang hadn't come back yet. Lin Hui closed the stall early as usual and was busy in the kitchen.
"Mom, where's dad?"
Lin Hui hesitated for a while and said, "Your dad hasn't come back from the factory yet. Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."
Chen Qiang has been suspended from the factory. If the machine tool is not repaired in a few days, in addition to being fired, he will also be tricked into the public security agency as a scapegoat. How can he still be in the factory at this time?
Chen Qiang is probably looking for odd jobs outside to make money.
Chen Xiao was very sensible and didn't ask any questions. After eating, he returned to the bedroom to light up the technology tree.
[Cumulative influence 22. 】
[Do you want to light up the technology tree? 】
Chen Xiao chose [Yes]
[20 points of influence are consumed, and 2 points of influence remain. 】
[Congratulations, the technology tree has been lit up. 】
Chen Xiao: "???"
I had no choice at all, so I lit up the technology tree? Random? What is the difference between this and opening a blind box?
Chen Xiao quickly checked to see what had been lit up. If he lit up a technological point that was strong in academics but poor in practicality, his plan to make money would be postponed again.
[Technology tree: Medical biology (not lit); physical and chemical machinery (not lit); computer information (lit)...]
The system description clearly shows that the lit technology tree will be very suitable for Chen Xiao's current situation.
It’s computer information!
Chen Xiao was determined to expand the technology tree of computer information technology.
Soon, Chen Xiao became... depressed.
[Computer information: 1. Proficient in C language. 】
C language...a basic programming language and the lowest level language for many programs.
It is simple to use, but because it requires a lot of statement syntax to express the purpose, the actual application is very cumbersome.
Before his rebirth, Chen Xiao knew C language and could use C language to program some small programs, but he was far from proficient. After all, there would be Python with more complete databases and syntax in later generations.
Moreover, Chen Xiao was not born to learn software. Before his rebirth, he was not "proficient" in the C language.
What can you do if you are proficient in C language?
programming.
Although the syntax is cumbersome, it is still better than nothing.
C language is process-oriented and focuses on pointers and memory. C++ is object-oriented and focuses on objects and algorithms, but C language is the foundation of C++.
After some self-study, Chen Xiao can also write some programs that are not difficult in C++.
If you use C++, it is much easier than C language!
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao calmed down a little.
[Reminder: Lighting up the next technology tree requires 50 influence points. 】
The next time you light up the technology tree, you need 50 points of influence.
So here’s the problem, even if you want to make money by writing some small programs, computers don’t...
This era is really difficult!
Can I ask Shen Wei to borrow a computer?
Shen Wei's family is so well off, so she must have a computer.
In his wild thoughts, Chen Xiao fell into a deep sleep.
The next day on Sunday, Chen Xiao went to the library to borrow books on C language and C++ and began to study C++ in depth.
Sure enough, after mastering C language, you can understand C++ by analogy. If you can write programs in C++, it will of course be much easier than C language.
…
Monday morning is the day when the results are revealed.
The students arrived at the classroom early and looked forward to it. The first clinic is the first test of the college entrance examination, and it is also the beginning of checking for missed vacancies.
For many students, the scores from the first clinic are actually the scores from the college entrance examination.
Just after the morning self-study, the head teacher, Mr. Liao, came to the classroom with the report card. His face was expressionless, and no one could guess whether Class 3 did well or not this time.
Teacher Liao's eyes first fell on the faces of Shen Wei and Su Qiao, and finally fell on Chen Xiao's face.
"This time the first clinic exam is over, and everyone can feel the atmosphere and difficulty of the exam." Teacher Liao said seriously: "The atmosphere of the college entrance examination is more tense and the discipline is stricter than that of the first clinic, but the difficulty of the questions is easier than the college entrance examination Some."
"If you feel that the questions are not very smooth this time, then in the next six months, you will have to check for omissions and fill in the gaps and work harder."
Teacher Liao glanced at some students in the class and said: "This time, there are some small surprises and surprises in the results of our class. The scores of many students have improved significantly compared with the last monthly exam. I hope the teachers in each subject will hand out the test papers." After coming down, everyone can enter the state of senior high school as soon as possible, check for omissions, fill in the gaps and analyze the reasons."
"I will announce the results next."
The whole class held their breath.
Teacher Liao has a habit of announcing the results starting from the last one. However, he will not announce the rankings of those with poor grades. Only the top twenty will be announced.
At this time, both Jiang Wei and Deng Chao became nervous.
"Zhang Yi, with a total score of 294, 64 in Chinese, 23 in mathematics...grade ranking is 303."
There are more than 300 students in the senior year of Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School, and this ranking is basically at the bottom.
Zhang Yi stood up in disbelief when he read his name!
"I'm the last one!??" He looked at Jiang Wei and Deng Chao and was shocked!
It shouldn’t be! The rankings of the poor students in the Iron Triangle have always been Jiang Wei, Deng Chao, second from last, and Zhang Yi, third from last, and Zhang Yi is two or thirty points ahead of two others. This time, it shouldn’t be!
Seeing Zhang Yi's confused and funny expression, the whole class burst into laughter.
Teacher Liao said very speechlessly: "What shouldn't be done? It's an honor!?"
The whole class: "Hahahaha!"
"Wang Qian, total score is 305, Chinese language is 76..."
Jiang Wei was ranked fifth from the bottom, and Deng Chao was ranked sixth from the bottom. The two scored 324 and 331 respectively.
This result has already made the two of them excited! Not only is they not the last or second to last, but they have improved by several places!
Jiang Wei and Deng Chao looked at Chen Xiao gratefully. Everyone knew that this was Chen Xiao's contribution.
[Influence +2, cumulative influence 4. 】
Zhang Yi looked even more incredible and kept mumbling, "It shouldn't be! It absolutely shouldn't be! Jiang Wei and Deng Chao actually scored more than 300 points!"
The subsequent results are quite satisfactory. Basically, the level I was at in the monthly exam will be at the same level this time.
What everyone is most looking forward to is who will be the top five.
Generally speaking, Shen Wei is first, Su Qiao is second, and although Chen Xiao is a little prince in science, he will be ranked fourth or fifth because of his poor English, and occasionally he will be ranked third.
"Fourth place, Zhu Yingjie, with a total score of 601, 127 in Chinese, 122 in mathematics...ranked 17th in grade."
Fourth place finally broke 600 points.
Shen Wei fiddled with her fingernails nervously, while Su Qiao raised his chest and stared at Teacher Liao. He felt that he had a chance to surpass Shen Wei this time and become the first in the class.
So far, the teacher has not read Chen Xiao's name. The whole class, including Shen Wei, is looking at Chen Xiao. If there are no surprises, the third place should belong to Chen Xiao.
"Third place, Su Qiao, with a total score of 604, Chinese 134, Mathematics 110, English 137...ranked 11th in grade."
"Ah!" Su Qiao was very surprised. She actually became third in the class! She didn't even make it to the top ten in grade. This isn't progress, it's regression!
Teacher Liao encouraged her kindly: "Su Qiao, you need to work harder in math!"
Su Qiao looked at Chen Xiao reluctantly. Chen Xiao actually surpassed him?
Shen Wei also breathed a sigh of relief. His biggest competitor, Su Qiao, was in third place. It seemed that he should be in first place this time.
