Chapter 42 He didn’t dodge!
Pei Song had already sat in front of the computer, his fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard.
Lines of commands flashed by, and he quickly called up the complete system log.
"Show me the latest code update records." He said without looking up.
The director wanted to say something, but he saw Pei Song using various debugging tools skillfully, his movements were smooth and he looked very experienced.
Three hours later, the only sound in the office was the typing of keyboards.
"Found it." Pei Song said suddenly, "Look here."
He pointed to a piece of code and said: "This algorithm will overflow when processing large-scale data. If it exceeds the critical value, the entire system will crash."
The engineers came over to take a look and gasped.
This problem is so hidden that it would be impossible to discover it unless you are familiar with the system architecture.
Pei Song quickly modified the code, explaining: "We need to add an exception handling mechanism here and optimize the data structure..."
His explanations were professional and clear, totally unlike the "layman" who couldn't even explain the basic concepts a month ago.
"Give it a try." He hit the last enter key.
The system began to reboot and everyone held their breath.
When the familiar interface lit up again, the office erupted in cheers.
The technical director came over, and the contempt on his face had turned into surprise: "When did you understand the system so deeply?"
"I studied for a while." Pei Song said modestly, "thanks to the guidance of my friends."
He thought of Shi Yanchen's patient teaching these days, and a smile unconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"The latter optimization plan is very clever." said the director seriously.
Pei Song thought of the first lesson Shi Yanchen taught him: "The key to technology is to draw inferences from one example. What's important is not rote memorization, but a true understanding of the principles behind it."
Since then, suppliers' attitudes have taken a 180-degree turn.
Technical discussions are no longer condescending lectures, but have become equal exchanges.
"To be honest, I was too arbitrary in my previous email." After a regular project meeting, the technical director took the initiative to bring up the matter, "I apologize for my previous request to change the contact person. It was indeed a wise decision for SNK to choose you to be in charge of this project."
Pei Song smiled and said: "I understand. Every project needs to be strictly checked. At that time, I did have a lot of things I didn't understand."
"But your progress is amazing." The director said with emotion, "You can master such a complex system architecture in just one month. This kind of learning ability and concentration are rare."
After returning to the company, Zhou Feng called Pei Song to his office.
"I heard that the attitude of suppliers has changed a lot?" Zhou Feng asked with a smile.
"Yes, communication is much smoother now." Pei Song said, "By the way, they asked to replace someone before..."
"I never thought about changing people." Zhou Feng interrupted him, "Sometimes, appropriate pressure can stimulate potential. I believe you have this ability, you just need an opportunity."
Pei Song was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhou Feng to be so confident in himself.
"Okay, keep it up." Zhou Feng said, "The project is progressing smoothly, and the company is very satisfied with your performance."
Just when the "Future Hotel" project was booming, Shi Yanchen's behavior made Pei Song feel a little strange.
Every day when he went to work, Shi Yanchen would always go out mysteriously, sometimes even missing the time when they usually had dinner together.
"Do you have anything to do today?" Pei Song watched Shi Yanchen hurriedly packing his things.
"Well, I have a last-minute appointment." Shi Yanchen tied his tie, "You can eat first when you come back in the evening, you don't have to wait for me."
Pei Song looked at his back as he hurriedly left, feeling inexplicably lost.
This situation has become more and more frequent recently, even weekends have become mysterious.
"What are you busy with recently?" Pei Song asked casually.
Shi Yanchen paused and said, "Nothing, just walking around."
Pei Song felt something was wrong with this evasive attitude.
In his impression, Shi Yanchen was always straightforward and never secretive.
One afternoon, Pei Song met with a client in a cafe to discuss business.
Through the French window, he noticed a familiar figure across the street.
Shi Yanchen was talking to a woman in a business suit. The two of them were very close to each other and looked quite intimate.
The woman was so excited that she almost stuck to Shi Yanchen, and Shi Yanchen did not even dodge.
Pei Song's heart sank. Is this the reason why Shi Yanchen has been so secretive lately?
"Manager Pei? Manager Pei?" The customer's voice brought him back to reality.
"Sorry, I was distracted." Pei Song forced himself to turn his attention back to work.
But the image stuck in his mind like a slide.
When Pei Song returned to the hotel in the evening, he saw Shi Yanchen processing emails in the study.
"Where did you go today?" Pei Song asked standing at the door, his tone sounding a little stiff.
Shi Yanchen's fingers paused for a moment: "Something happened."
"What's so mysterious?" Pei Song couldn't help asking, "The gods have been running away recently."
Shi Yanchen turned his chair and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Pei Song pretended to be relaxed and said, "You seem to be hiding something recently. Are you in a relationship?"
Shi Yanchen didn't say anything, Pei Song continued to say sarcastically: "That lady is very well dressed and has a good temperament. You two look very good together. Should I say congratulations in advance?"
Shi Yanchen laughed out loud.
"What are you laughing at?" Pei Song became even angrier, "Did I get it right?"
"You mean Agent Wang?" Shi Yanchen laughed so hard that his shoulders shook. "She's a real estate agent."
"Real estate agent?" Pei Song was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You are going back to Country D soon, why are you looking for a real estate agent? This person is really blind, he doesn't even know your situation and comes to sell you a house."
Shi Yanchen did not comment, but simply said: "The real estate agents in City C are too enthusiastic."
Pei Song said awkwardly: "Then just reject her directly next time, don't waste your time."
Shi Yanchen nodded and said nothing more.
But in the following days, he would still disappear from time to time, even more frequently than before.
During this period, Shi Yanchen visited almost all high-end properties in City C.
Every day, he would find various excuses to go out and visit each property.
