A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

"Jiang Gong! Jiang Gong! Fish! Fish!" Researcher Xiao Guan was carrying a large plate piled high with fried fish.

"Hey! Good thing you're carrying fish, or I would have thought you were using a mule!"

Jiang Xia took the plate with a grin, casually stuffing half of it into her mouth: "Thanks!"

"No, no, it's nothing. But, Engineer Jiang, could I take up a little of your time?" Researcher Xiao Guan said apologetically, taking out his notebook again.

"Of course! We should have plenty of time before they finish!" Jiang Xia pointed to the car that was moving up and down erratically.

Researcher Xiao Guan was startled by the wailing coming from the car; he knew better than to look!

"Jiang Gong, it's about that printer. The teacher assigned some work to us, and there are a few things I don't quite understand..."

"Oh, by the way, this is my certificate of participation in the project, please take a look!"

Under the streetlights, Jiang Xia sighed and touched the stamped seal on the ID card. "How fast are you guys? Just a few words and your personnel are all here?"

No wonder later records show a surge of research findings related to this period. They were all pieced together!

A cold wind blew by, and Jiang Xia came back to his senses, pulling researcher Xiao Guan into the jeep.

A flashlight was set up to illuminate the small space.

"Hmm, are you asking why we need to perform data packet splitting?"

"Look, the printer driver is actually stored on the computer; the printer itself doesn't have a matching memory..."

After some time, researcher Xiao Guan suddenly realized...

"Got it! Actually, this printing program only needs to control three main steps: the needle striking the ribbon, the print head moving, and the paper following!"

"Yes! However, based on our writing habits, we still need to consider the issue of page turning..."

Jiang Xia suddenly remembered that the text editors they were using now didn't have the automatic page wrapping function of WPS in later years. This thing was similar to Notepad on the computer, where a series of text just kept going!

"Change the page? That's not difficult! We're using 260*185mm paper now, so we just need to add a limit symbol!" Researcher Xiao Guan said confidently.

"Haha, it's not that difficult to begin with, it's just the computer language part..." Jiang Xia suddenly remembered GB/T-1994, which was still in the system store.

Writing a standard program in C would surely be much more concise. No, I need to go back and catch up on the schedule; replacing this is the right thing to do.

DOS alone is not enough to drive the progress of automated control.

Jiang Xia lit a cigarette and stared into thought at the car that was still swaying in the distance, while Researcher Xiao Guan kept writing down the questions he had just asked.

The little jeep immediately quieted down.

shuh...

A beam of bright white light suddenly shone down, and a group of people in uniforms appeared out of nowhere.

"This is the car!"

"Hey! That dark-faced guy is in the driver's seat!"

"Don't move! Hands behind your head!"

Several people noisily opened the car door and pulled Jiang Xia and researcher Xiao Guan out of the car.

"What unit are you from? What are you discussing?! Your notebooks! Hand them over! We've been watching you write things down outside, and we need to review them..."

"Does this foreigner understand what I'm saying?"

"Good heavens, we've searched half of Beijing and finally caught him!"

The newcomers shouted these words noisily, and one of the leaders snatched the notebook from Xiao Guan's hand and began to flip through it with a flashlight.

"The printed content is split into two packets? Two bytes correspond to binary bits? What the heck?"

He then pointed to a spot that Researcher Xiao Guan had recorded: "1 hits, 0 doesn't move! This is a code! We might have caught a big fish!"

"stop!"

The gate to the electronics factory was pushed open, and a guard ran out while whistling.

He hadn't run more than a few steps when he executed a standard sliding prone maneuver, and the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle on his back was already loaded when it swung to his chest.

Release Jianggong!

Upon hearing the whistle, the uniformed officers reacted swiftly, pointing their guns at the guards.

"There are accomplices? We've been infiltrated!"

Before he could finish speaking, a bunch of guards suddenly appeared at the electronics factory's gatehouse and raised their guns in their direction.

They shouted, "Release Jiang Gong and Xiao Guan!"

They shouted from the other side, "Put down your guns! You're surrounded! Resist and you'll be severely punished!"

Alright, Old Wang, stop shaking and come out and wipe your butt!

……

After some time, the misunderstanding was cleared up, and Lao Wang bowed and scraped as he offered Jiang Xia the white cigarettes he was holding.

After leaving his and Jiang Xia's work IDs, he grabbed Jiang Xia and drove off.

"Hey Hey……"

"Hey, what a load of crap! Now I know how you calculated your solitary confinement days. How long is it this time?"

"do not know!"

"what?"

"Or you should laugh! With all that commotion, the boss rushed me down to rescue you, and you escaped another disaster! Isn't that something to be happy about?"

"Then why were you screaming so pitifully?"

"Tsk, only a fool wouldn't make a sound. This is called giving the boss a sense of satisfaction. Learn from this, you little idiot!"

"Damn it! You shameless bastard, now I know why you have so many medals but your rank can't be raised."

Let's not even mention their bickering.

The uniformed man chuckled as he flicked his work badge, "What a mess!"

"Let's go, consider today as overtime. Everyone can come to the office a few minutes later tomorrow!"

"Ah...it's only a few minutes. Captain, how about you treat us to some braised pork offal? We've been running all day, we're starving..."

"Pah! Do I look like braised pork offal? My toes are salty, why don't you come and take a bite?"

"Hey, Captain? We're supposed to go back and give a statement. Should we just take our two work IDs back to hand in our report?"

"Nonsense! Where do you think you are? The other side is actually quite righteous, giving us this to complete our mission. Otherwise, we'd be in trouble for a while... Learn from this, little brat!"

"Hurry up, we're out of braised pork, but we have a few ounces of Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor). Have a drink and get a good night's sleep. We still have to maintain order at the intersection tomorrow morning!"

A group of people climbed onto the train carriage one by one.

The captain shook the Z-shaped "car key" a few times.

"Puff puff puff puff..." The headlights of the little cannon lit up, and the hot air it emitted warmed the captain's whole body.

Patting Little Cannon's big head: "Today was really close, I almost got your 'dad' arrested!"

"That's quite suspicious, comrade. I suggest you write a letter demanding that the organization take serious action against this person! But before that, why don't you come and learn from us?"

Three figures emerged from the darkness. The one in the lead held up a red-covered badge. The headlights of the small car shone on the badges on their chests, causing the uniformed men to squint.

"The confidentiality regulations are just ten points and eighty detailed rules. We are staunch fighters! Besides, we're just arresting one person. It's not like we're talking about confidentiality principles!"

"It's been updated, comrade. Now there are 121 detailed rules... As for confidential matters, one directive and zero indirect ones are enough!"

"That's what I saw. Let my team go back; we still need to set up posts tomorrow..."

“If you don’t read it aloud, then there’s no problem. But…”

"Your uncle..."
