A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

"Om..."

The modified Jeep was powerful, and at the little brat's request, Old Wang floored the accelerator and sped past the most famous square in the country.

Although the main road at that time was not as wide as it would be in later years, during the tenth anniversary celebration, the tram in the middle of the street was removed and the green belt was paved with road surface, thus forming a rare six-lane road in the country.

Jiang Xia leaned against the car window and watched as people actually threw fishing lines into the moat; his ahoge (cowlick) instantly stood up.

"Old Wang, do you have a fishing rod?"

Old Wang's face was a little flushed; the speedometer on this modified Jeep had actually entered the red zone!

Damn, Old Wang, who had always thought this was just for show, couldn't help but get a little excited.

Awesome, absolutely awesome!

No man can resist the thrill of high speed, "90!"

Old Wang poked his head out and roared at the outside.

Pshaw, getting this excited over a mere 90 yards? You're so naive!

Jiang Xia pursed his lips, his idea of ​​building a high-speed motorcycle growing stronger. It didn't have to be very tall, just something that could go 120 km/h, so that Old Wang could experience the feeling of flying.

Once they reached the vicinity of the train station, Old Wang finally calmed down.

I drove my little jeep, making several turns, until I arrived at the freight station.

"Hello, Uncle Wang!"

Looking at Wang Dadan, who was pacing back and forth in front of the station smoking, Xiao Daimao waved happily.

Huh? Good? Good my ass!

Wang Dadan, with heavy dark circles under his eyes, forced a smile at Jiang Xia.

"Hey, Uncle Wang, it looks like you've been writing a speech all night! Hahaha..."

What a load of rubbish!

What kind of speech is this? I spent the whole night memorizing the confidentiality regulations!

If you don't believe me, come and ask me. There are 86 detailed rules. If I stumble even a little, you can take my head off...

You little troublemaker!

Forget it, I can't afford to mess with them...

Wang Dadan gestured to his throat and uttered a few words with difficulty: "My voice is hoarse, please don't mind!"

"Oh! You're doing this while practicing your speech, right? Hey, Uncle Wang, don't worry. These are the technical specifications for the portable refrigerated garage. Once we've checked the results, you can add this to your speech."

"Oh, right, there's one more thing I forgot to write..."

Jiang Xia opened the cooperation project proposal and added at the end of the text: "Thank you for the strong support from the railway authorities. In order to achieve the goal, the relevant personnel have overcome numerous difficulties..."

The long, rambling text made Wang Dadan's heart pound with excitement.

"Oh dear, cooperating with this kid is a bit troublesome, but he really gives you credit when it comes to the rewards! Look at these few words, he's really praising the Ministry of Railways to the skies!"

Ignoring his hoarse throat from reciting his lessons yesterday, he laughed heartily, "It's nothing, it's nothing! The credit belongs to everyone!"

The laughter sounded a bit strange, reminding Jiang Xia of a woman in a short video from later generations who had contracted a contagious disease and was calling out for her mother.

"Gaga gaga!! Gaga..."

Yes, that's the real voice of Wang Dadan.

"Let's go! Open the box and inspect the goods!"

Jiang Xia followed Wang Dadan obediently, even though he had already scanned the area with the scanner.

Absolutely no problem! An average temperature of -10 degrees Celsius is enough for seafood from the south to reach Beijing smoothly.

Even further is not impossible...

All we need to do is increase the power of the generator in front of the locomotive, and as long as we don't stop, it can run all the way to the Himalayas.

Hmm? A seafood special train?

After saying goodbye to Wang Dadan, Jiang Xia rushed off to Dr. Lan Ying's factory.

"Dr. Lan Ying! I'm here again!"

Jiang Xia stood outside a laboratory and waved to the people inside.

Uh, what the heck? A group of people wearing white coats and white hats are standing in a circle, completely unresponsive to Jiang Xia's arrival.

Never mind, just go in yourself!

Crack! The door had just been opened by Jiang Xia, and before he could even step inside, a slap landed on his forehead.

"You brat, go to the locker room and change your clothes first!"

"Uh, Aunt Lanying. It's me, Jiang Xia! I'm here to discuss something with you, no need to shower..."

*Smack!* A flick on the forehead. "Even if a big boss comes, I still have to change into a white coat! Go change now, I have something good to show you!"

Jiang Xia looked at the spotless yellow clone in the very center of the laboratory.

Wow, the respect and care that Chinese people have for high-tech equipment is truly evident here.

Look at this house. Although it's underground, it's earthquake-proof, waterproof, impact-resistant, and anti-static. It has everything you need.

Do you book lovers remember the computer lab at your school? You know, the kind where you have to change into slippers before you go in.

As Jiang Xia changed her clothes, she thought about her beloved dog, Da Huang, whose house was now covered in cobwebs, and couldn't help but sigh for it: "You've really suffered..."

But since you're my son, I call you Big Yellow because I hope you won't mind that we're poor!

In the Jiang family courtyard, Big Yellow, still diligently working, paused inexplicably, and the tape recorder beside him emitted a creaking sound. If you listened closely, the sound was somewhat like "pi"...

After changing into a white lab coat and putting on a white cap, and even being thoroughly blew on by Dr. Lan Ying with an air gun, Xiao Dai Mao was finally allowed to enter the computer lab.

"What are you all looking at? Oh, Teacher Pei is here too!"

Teacher Pei, still as gentle as ever, smiled at Jiang Xia without showing her teeth: "You've come at the perfect time. You, the inventor, can help us take a look at this achievement."

As she spoke, Teacher Pei began typing on the keyboard that had been modified from a typewriter.

“zhong”

Huh? What's so special about that?

The researchers around Jiang Xia looked at him, but Jiang Xia was somewhat confused. Pinyin? What's so strange about that? Isn't that what you use in the comments at the end of the program?

However, as Teacher Pei pressed the "Enter" key on the keyboard, a selection box for a modern Pinyin input method popped up at the bottom of the screen, with several candidate characters appearing in the box.

"1. Middle 2. Type 3. End..."

Teacher Pei pressed the keyboard again, and the character "中" appeared on the screen.

"This is... a Chinese character input method?"

"You've got the Chinese character editing environment working!"

Teacher Pei's fingers never stopped, and soon the words "Long live China..." appeared on the flashing screen.

God!

Jiang Xia's face turned bright red!

"Senior brothers from Yunnan and Guizhou, you actually succeeded!"

"No, not you, it's us! Remember the VI editor's underlying logical disk driver you submitted last time? Without it, we'd be completely lost!"

"Yes, Engineer Jiang, a 16x16 dot matrix font library, that's a fantastic idea!"

The researchers surrounded Jiang Xia, some patting his head, others straightening his collar, all with their mouths agape, grinning from ear to ear.

If it weren't for the lab's strict cleaning protocols, Little Ahoge would definitely have been thrown into the air and given a good shake.

"Alright, we can talk about credit later. To maintain consistency, all the bitmap fonts need to be rebuilt, which is a huge project!"

A middle-aged woman pressed her hands down, saying, "Comrades, don't get excited. Engineer Jiang is here, so let's start with him signing our project application!"

Hey, who is this?

Jiang Xia looked at Dr. Lan Ying, whose eyes crinkled with a smile: "This is Professor Pei Shu. She's the one who optimized the driver for your editor!"

"Excuse me, is the teacher's surname 'Xia'?"

Teacher Pei Shu smiled and said, "That's right, my surname is Xia, the Xia of China!"

Is it the "Xia" in "Huaxia"?

that's nice!
