Chapter 410 Kitten Dinner Date
In September, Gu Nan's studies reached a bottleneck, so he contacted hR on a recruitment app. After an online interview, he decided to go to Kyoto for work and development.
Gu Wangnan was a little worried about her decision to enter the workplace half a year after waking up. He tried to persuade her twice, but Gu Nan insisted, so Gu Wangnan gave in and chose to respect her.
With the national exam approaching, Gu Xiao rented a room to study for it. Several of his fellow teachers had returned to their jobs, and with the children starting school, the orphanage suddenly became much quieter.
After settling in Kyoto, Gu Nan called Gu Wangnan. Gu Wangnan lamented to her on the phone that time passed so quickly, the children grew up all of a sudden, and went their separate ways for work, so they would meet less and less in the future.
Gu Wangnan is 56 years old this year and has reached retirement age, but due to her responsibilities, she will probably never be able to retire in her lifetime. She will have to meet and separate with a group of fatherless and motherless children throughout her life.
All Gu Nan could do for her was to take good care of himself, chat with her more, and earn more money so that she wouldn't be so tired.
Gu Nan studied behind closed doors in Qingcheng for more than two months, but he still couldn't decide on his future direction, so he boldly applied for the position of algorithm engineer, deciding to experience it himself and gain true knowledge through practice.
She applied to a large company, and probably because of her impressive resume, she was not rejected in the first round. The two-year gap could be more accurately called a job-hunting period, which was not a big problem. She took several rounds of written tests and interviews, performed well, and finally got a job in the algorithm position together with several college graduates.
The employment environment in the computer industry has not been very good in the past two years. There have been serious layoffs in front-end development and the salaries are not ideal. Many small companies want to find a full-stack developer in one go.
The work at a large company was better, but the pressure was high and the overtime was severe. The algorithm position wasn't much better either; Gu Nan pulled all-nighters for a week within a month of joining.
The fresh graduates had a harder time than her. They had to endure it almost every day, but two of them couldn't bear it and ran away before the internship was over.
After becoming a full-time employee, Gu Nan officially took over some project modules. Writing code, meeting requirements, running training, and fixing bugs are basically her daily work.
Apart from the inhumanity of being woken up by the police at one in the morning to fix a bug and then having to go to work on time the next day, what she felt was most inhumane was making reports at the weekly meeting. Many times, Gu Nan was speechless holding the filled weekly report. After all, fixing bugs is not work progress.
The work is tiring, but Gu Nan feels that she can stick to it. Occasionally, after finishing the tasks at hand, she can read papers, run her own algorithm experiments, and write her own work.
It was another weekly meeting. The team leader said that the algorithm was effective and met the target, and the KPI for the second half of the year was completed ahead of schedule. In the evening, he invited the team members to dinner at Yuejing Building.
Gu Nan was not very interested in the dinner party. She would rather go home and read her thesis in her free time, but since everyone was going, she didn't want to be treated specially, so she went too.
A large table of people gathered together to eat and chat. The lively atmosphere was in stark contrast to the dull atmosphere at work. Some people had been drinking and showed their true colors by taking out cigarettes, making the box stink.
Gu Nan couldn't stand it anymore, so he used the excuse of going to the bathroom to hide in the corner of the corridor and wait for the dinner to be over.
Gu Wangnan has urged her to go for a follow-up check several times recently, but Gu Nan is busy. Now that the project is progressing smoothly, she might be able to go to the research center this weekend.
Gu Nan searched for the route to the research center on the map and found that there was a direct bus, but it was a bit far and it would take more than two hours to take the subway and then the bus.
Gu Nan sent a message to Yi Jingrong to arrange a follow-up examination. Just as he was about to exit, a new message came in with a "ding dong" sound.

Lin Qin: "I heard from Professor Yi that my sister will be at the research center for a follow-up checkup this weekend. Can I treat her to a meal? Thank you for your help over the past few months."
