silence and stars

The Sea God's Day holiday at the end of the year is approaching, but the school is not easy at all.The tension at the end of the term is everywhere, and the second-year students not only have to prepare for the exam and a bunch of papers, but also discuss with the teacher about the topic of the graduation project before the start of the holiday.

Leo had his hands full: he was first dragged by Teddy to a triathlon at the Tour de Liere, and then he had to face the semi-finals of the Cubbs High School League.They fought with the school team of Leonid Medical College to the end, but still lost the game, which made the whole team and even the whole school resentful for several days.In addition to school matters, Leo had to spare time to stare at the entertainment center's projects, and to deal with rumors that came out of nowhere.

"Is that what people are talking about?" Even Teddy finally came to ask him, "You and your brother didn't really fight over some casino, did they?"

Leo couldn't laugh or cry: "Where did the casino come from? I handle all the business in our family, and he didn't even bother to ask. How could we quarrel over this!"

"I don't think so. But they pass it on in style..."

Cassia wisely said after knowing this: "People like to hear this, and there will always be a market for this kind of gossip. Leave them alone and focus on your orbital project!"

His orbital project hasn't been smooth sailing either.

"Leo, sit down!" said his thesis advisor. "Before I talk about the graduation project, I would like to ask, do you plan to continue your studies? Have you considered a five-year degree or graduate school?"

"No," Leo replied truthfully, "I just want a three-year degree."

"Okay, I got it. Then let's face the first question. Your topic is a bit huge - "A Feasible Financing Model for the Pan-Ansen Orbit Project". If you want to make this a complete graduation project, you only need one Years may be quite difficult.”

"what……"

"It's okay, everyone has the same problem. The topics you submitted are too ambitious." The thesis advisor smiled. "I suggest making a small change on the existing basis. You can choose only one of the existing models as the object of discussion to narrow the scope."

"I see what you mean."

"You can use the Sea God's Day holiday to think about it carefully, and it should be finalized before the start of the next school year. You can contact me at any time during the holidays!"

"Okay, thank you!"

"Second question, if I understand correctly, you are not only concerned about this matter to complete your graduation project?"

Leo said: "Yes, I really want to promote this project. The transportation industry association has been working hard for many years. After talking to them, I think there is something that can be done. After all, the most benefited from the orbit project is Anson. Those who need help—"

"I completely agree," the thesis advisor nodded, "What is the main obstacle now?"

Leo replied: "The most troublesome thing is definitely the land use problem. It was stuck here before. There are also a lot of technical problems. There are still a considerable proportion of real tracks in the cargo port area of ​​​​Mudan District. The cost of connecting this with the virtual track is very staggering. .In addition, since it is all over Anson's track, a set of overall right-of-way priority standards is needed, and it must be compatible with the original regional express rail system. The transportation industry association is very willing to make this set of standards, funding, coordination It’s easy to work, but I don’t know how long it will take, and there is nothing to refer to.”

When Leo told this to Elder, Elder told him: "The fleet has a complete wartime transportation priority plan, which is very similar to what you want. But this plan is quite high-level, and it is impossible to come up with it. For civilian projects. You can ask Ellie!"

Leo did not expect that the opportunity to ask Ellie would come so soon.

The next day was a rest day, and Captain Mas sent Mia back to her grandmother's house. Without Mia's twittering, it was a bit deserted for a while.When it was dinner time, Leo played games alone in the restaurant, waiting for Ild.

When the door opened, Leo complained: "Do you have to settle things before the meal, I'm going to starve to death!"

It was Ellie Lin who came in.Leo was caught off guard and couldn't say anything except to ask him to sit down.He didn't go out for a day, he was dressed in a mess, and his hair was tied up on the top of his head. This was the first time he appeared in front of Lin Elli with this appearance.Leo was angry and embarrassed, why didn't Ild speak sooner?

Looking at each other, he felt his face was burning hot.After half a minute of silence, Leo suddenly remembered about the orbital project, as if he had caught a life-saving straw, he hurriedly asked questions.

Lin Elli immediately gave an affirmative answer after hearing what he said: "Our wartime transportation priority plan is essentially a set of overall right-of-way standards. However, this plan is classified. If you want to show it to the Transportation Industry Association As a reference, you can only avoid the specific content and extract the underlying logic of the plan. It will take some time, but it is feasible."

"Thank you so much! They have thought of so many ways, why didn't they think in this direction!"

"Speaking of which, shipping priorities are my uncle's business," Ellie Lin said.His tone was somewhat bitter.

Leo asked carefully: "He still has disagreements with you? It's been so long..."

Lin Elli sighed and didn't speak for a long time.Perhaps to change the subject, he glanced at the holographic projection that was always on in front of Leo, and asked, "Is this a game?"

Leo replied: "Yes, it's a strategy game. I haven't moved for a long time, and I'm hopeless in this game."

Lin Elli turned to Leo and looked at it carefully for half a minute: "In the end, should we calculate the number of resources or the number of battleships?"

"Uh, resources."

"Then there is still hope, at least not at the bottom," he said with great certainty, "The defensive fleet placed in the purple sector is useless, it should be transferred to the offensive fleet, and then the remaining small warships will be distributed to Atal Point Now, the piece in No. 1's hand can be taken back. In the end, it will surpass No. 1 by two points, but it will not be able to catch up with No. 3."

"...What is Atal point?"

Ellie Lin didn't answer, but leaned over slightly, stretched out his hand and began to operate for him.

Leo remained seated.It was too close, especially the arms, which were only a few centimeters away from him.There seemed to be a slight smell of pine needles, and Leo unconsciously took several deep breaths.

"Interesting, the degree of fidelity is quite high. Is the coordinate system preset? Can't it be changed?"

Leo didn't recover for a long time, he was completely confused: "I don't know...it shouldn't be possible. What will happen if it is changed?"

He replied: "It's nothing, it's to prevent the opponent from predicting your perspective and guessing the next move. It is an ultra-low probability event that has to be guarded against." His fingers slid across Leo's remaining ship without a trace. Qun, then seemed to think of something, smiled and said: "Ian used this to trick me before. When we go to the simulator, we usually have a few sets of basic parameters that we are used to, but he actually guessed me. Which group are you using, and then set up traps all the way and wait for me to jump in."

Leo murmured: "Time creates a tacit understanding."

"Yes, the difficulty is equivalent to predicting what I want to say out of thin air, and the predictions are correct several times in a row."

Lin Elli quickly finished the operation and leaned back on his dining chair: "That's all right."

At this time, Ild entered the restaurant and complained all the way: "Damn it, the media consultant is going to resign again. In less than five years, three groups of people have been changed! Lubov just stopped me just to say that, he persuaded It didn't work for a few days."

Leo turned off the projector—those two opponents would never know who they were playing.

Ellie Lin asked, "Why did you resign?"

"She said the job required too much commitment and took up too much personal time. She didn't want to mix work and life completely," Erd sat down. "That's great, I don't know what's next." Who else can I invite! Why is it so difficult?"

Leo couldn't listen to this at all.He was only a few centimeters away from Lin Elli just now, what does it matter if the media consultant resigns?Even if all of Ansen's people resigned together, he couldn't care less.
