âWe designed an office program, but there was a bug in the pay interface. It took us an entire day to resolve it. We even found an expert from another company to come over and deal with it.â Sun Jian said.
âIâm waiting for them to finish, then Iâll do the final tidying up.â
Lin Yi turned around and saw that the people who were dealing with the bugs were still arguing. They didnât seem to have found a reasonable solution.
âFrom the looks of it, it seems like it wonât be resolved so soon.â
âI asked just now and said that the problem will be resolved in half an hour. The remaining half an hour is enough for me to wrap things up.â Sun Jian said.
âIf itâs not done in half an hour, I wonât wait for them. We can just go eat.â
âDonât mind me,â Lin Yi said, âWork is more important.â
âIf they canât finish it, I canât keep waiting for them anyway.â
âLetâs see how it goes.â
Sun Jian nodded. âBoss, itâs only been a few days since we last met. Why do I feel like youâve lost weight?â
âIâm going out every day, it would be strange if I didnât lose weight.â
âThen Iâll find a place for you to have a good meal.â
âWeâre not outsiders, it doesnât matter where we eat,â Lin Yi smiled.
âYo, President Lin!â
Hearing someone speak, Lin Yi turned around and realized that it was the other two partners.
Li Qingyuan and Liu Guangming.
â1 didnât disturb you guys, did I?â Lin Yi smiled.
âHow could you disturb us? We couldnât be happier.â Li Qingyuan was flattered.
âBut why didnât you tell us you were visiting earlier? I could have picked you up downstairs.â
âItâs not like Iâm an important person. Thereâs no need to host me.â
âPresident Lin, you really know how to joke. Not to mention this coastal area, in the entire Huaxia, there arenât many people who are more special than you. Itâs our honor that you are here.â
âYouâre too kind,â Lin Yi smiled.
âLast time, the meal was arranged by Old Sun. This time, itâs my turn. You have to let me play the host properly. Please donât refuse.â
Li Qingyuan checked his watch. âItâs about time. Letâs go now.â
Lin Yi pointed to the development team not far away.
âThere is still work to be done. Whatâs going to happen if the boss leaves early? Work comes first, so donât delay your important matters.â
âI donât think we can finish it so soon.â Li Qingyuan said.
âI found an engineer from outside. He used to be a technological engineer at Penguin, but he hasnât figured it out yet. Itâs really annoying.â
âI agree with that, so letâs not wait. Letâs go now,â Sun Jian said.
âDonât worry, Iâll go over and see whatâs going on. I have nothing to do anyway,â Lin Yi said.
âHuh?â Sun Jian was stunned for a moment. âBoss, you know about these things?â
âA little.â
âHurry, hurry, hurry. Go over and take a look. The sooner weâre done, the faster weâll get to leave.â
Seeing that Lin Yi wanted to help, Li Qingyuan and Liu Guangming didnât stop him.
When a billionaire like him took the initiative to ask for help, forget about whether he could solve the problem or not. It was a great honor that he was even willing to waste time on you.
âCome, come, come. Make way. Let President Lin see whatâs wrong.â Liu Guangming shouted.
Seeing the boss walking over with a stranger, the dozen or so programmers subconsciously stood back.
They all sized up Lin Yi.
Was he here to solve the problem?
He was so young. How good could he be?
The bug in the program was so urgent that there was no time for trial and error. Otherwise, they would get off work late.
âPresident Li, who is this person?â
The person who spoke was in his forties. He looked very plain. His hair was thinking, and he looked like a typical man in the STEM field.
âJust call him President Lin. He also has a technical background. Heâs preparing to look at the bugs in the program.â
âPresident Li, weâre almost there; thereâs no need for further inspections,â the engineer said.
âIs that so?â Li Qingyuan said.
âHow long will it take to get it done?â
âTen minutes at most!â
âAlright, you do it first.â
The engineer nodded, then turned to the computer and started tapping away on the keyboard. Lines of code jumped out, making him seem quite skilled.
Li Qingyuan smiled at Lin Yi. âPresident Lin, I happen to have nothing to do. Can you give us some guidance?â
Lin Yi watched carefully from the side and said calmly,
âThereâs a problem with this code. Although it can repair the problem with the payment window, it might affect the speed of the network connection, causing users to be unable to log in normally.â
âHuh?â
Li Qingyuan was just asking this question to express how much he valued Lin Yi.
Unexpectedly, he really identified a problem.
âWhat are you talking about?!â
Without waiting for Li Qingyuan to speak, the engineer asked,
âIâve been in Penguin for eight years. Iâve dealt with countless procedural problems, big and small. Do you think you have more say than I do?â
Lin Yi smiled and didnât argue.
âIâll take it that I saw wrongly. Continue.â
The other young programmers in the company glanced at Lin Yi.
Engineer Zhangâs skills were truly remarkable, and the level of expertise he displayed was almost otherworldly. He had opened up a whole new world for himself, so why was he still doubting it?
Wasnât this clearly a case of someone inexperienced trying to instruct an expert?
The worst thing for those working in technology is encountering such individuals. Itâs unclear what the boss was thinking.
The engineer didnât say anything. He just snorted and turned to the computer to type the code.
A few minutes later, the engineer tapped the enter key and said with relief,
âItâs all done. Run the program.â
âIâll try.â
After Liu Guangming finished speaking, he sat in front of the computer and ran the program again.
A few minutes later, he said with relief,
âOK, no problem at all!â
Everyone in the company cheered. If this problem could not be resolved, no one could get off work today.
âOld Sun, leave your work to someone else. Pack up and letâs go eat,â Li Qingyuan said.
âIâm ready. Letâs go.â
âDonât be anxious,â Lin Yi said.
âTake your phones and log into this software. See if there are any problems with the actual functionality.â
The engineer glanced at Lin Yi with an ugly expression.
âWhat do you mean? Are you questioning my work?â
âTry it, just in case.â
Others wouldnât take Lin Yiâs words seriously, but Li Qingyuan and Liu Guangming knew who he was. They quickly picked up their phones and ran their apps, not daring to disobey.
They wouldnât have known if he hadnât seen it, but they were shocked when they saw it.
Usually, when they entered the app, they would enter in seconds. However, this time, they waited for more than half a minute before slowly getting in.
Moreover, when they opened the other functions, the speed was especially slow!
There was no doubt that there was a problem with the software!
âEngineer Zhang, I want to know whatâs going on.â Li Qingyuan asked..
