Chapter 43: Why don’t all the civil and military officials in the court speak out? For a moment, the only sounds in the conference room were the typing of keyboards and mice and the technicians' whispered conversations with each other. It was tense and busy. 12 minutes later, Yan Jing finished revising the process and found no problems. He was the first to say, "This is OK!" Instead of getting the expected feedback, he found that Li Jianchao was just staring at the screen, not saying anything, and not making any movements with his hands. After 18 minutes, Zhang Chao let out a long sigh of relief, "Brother Chao, I'm done too!" Still no response, Zhang Chao looked over and saw Li Jianchao frowning, with sweat on his forehead. In the next few minutes, members successively said that the functions they were responsible for had been modified. Then they all looked over when they didn't get any response from Li Jianchao. Li Jianchao was seen staring at the screen, sweating profusely, his mouth opening and closing slightly, muttering something to himself. Going back 20 minutes, as for Chen Mo's codes, the logic was very simple because he had reviewed them personally a week ago. Li Jianchao was confident that the battle could be resolved in 5 minutes.
But when he found the corresponding code segment, he was shocked. The code was not only exactly the same as the one he checked before, but it was completely unrecognizable. He didn't understand! After reading for 5 minutes, he thought he saw some clues and started trying to modify the code. Then he felt like he had fallen into a vortex from which he could not escape. After 10 minutes, not only were the new requirements not met, but even the original normal functions were affected. Even now, even if he restored the code, he didn't know where it was affected and there were still problems. It was as if I had accidentally opened a Pandora's box, and once it was opened there was no going back. Li Jianchao vaguely felt that there was an invisible black hand on the screen controlling the life and death of the project. Maybe giving him a day or two will help him slowly sort out the entire programming idea and the analysis of grammatical semantics. But he doesn't have much time left now, only half an hour! Li Jianchao looked up at the situation of several other companies. He found, perhaps it was an illusion, that everyone had a relaxed smile on their face and the sound of keyboard typing became less frequent, which meant that they should have entered the final stage of testing. What should I do? He thought of something and turned to look at Zhang Chao, who was among the colleagues watching behind him with a mysterious smile on his face. "Zhang Chao, you were close to Chen Mo before, do you know how to change this place?" Zhang Chao smiled and shook his head, "Brother Li, don't try, it's useless. I really can't change what Brother Mo wrote. I don't have the ability to do that, you know." Li Jianchao looked at Yan Jin again, "Old Yan, what about you? Didn't Chen Mo tell you anything?" "Wait!" Yan Jin thought for a moment and uttered a few more words, "Let's wait!" Li Jianchao looked at the time on the wall. Another minute had passed. He could not hesitate any longer. He gritted his teeth, rushed out of the meeting room, came to the reception room next door, knocked on the door twice and went straight in. At this time, regardless of the fact that Wang Defa was chatting with several other company CEOs, he leaned over to the other person's ear and said, "Boss Wang, there's a problem with the project. Can you come out?" Wang Defa remained calm, smiled and nodded, and apologized to the other CEOs of the brother companies and Zhao Shixiong. "Excuse me, everyone. I have something to deal with and will be back soon. Excuse me~ Excuse me!" After the two came out, they went from the reception room to the joint debugging meeting room. Li Jianchao found the code and the error page and told the boss about the current serious situation. Although he couldn't understand what was on the page, he was startled when he heard the name that had woken him up even in his dreams these days. Wang Defa's face was as cold as ice. He stared at Li Jianchao and said in a low voice, "Let me ask you again, are you sure you can't change it?"
Li Jianchao pursed his lips and nodded even though he was unwilling, feeling very frustrated. Wang Defa looked around at the other programmers and said in a deep voice, "What about you?" Everyone shook their heads! "Li Jianchao, I just want to ask one question. Is it only Chen Mo who can modify this crappy code and meet these requirements?" "If even Chen Mo can't change in such a short time, then no one can." "Really? I don't believe it!" Wang Defa still held out a glimmer of hope. He went directly to the area of the Chinasoft technical team next door and found the Chinasoft technical manager he had met several times before. "Manager Qi, I have a technical problem. Can you find an expert to take a look?" Manager Qi looked up and found that it was President Wang who spoke. Since he personally came to him for help, it was obvious that he had encountered some difficult problem. He only had some finishing work left on his side. "Mr. Wang? Okay, let me come and take a look." He then instructed his men to check the process one last time to make sure there were no mistakes. After arriving here and Li Jianchao briefly explaining the situation, Manager Qi gave up in just 3 minutes and said there was nothing he could do. Apparently noticing Wang Defa's suspicious look, he was a little angry and sent an invitation to the two technical leaders of Inspur and Softcom to join forces. Those who can serve as the technical leaders of this project basically have ceiling-level technical skills in their respective companies. Then a strange scene appeared in the venue: the four major technical managers gathered together, apparently working on a technical problem. "What kind of writing style is this? I've never seen it before. Will it work?" "It shouldn't work, right? Manager Li, have you tried it before?" Li Jianchao nodded, "Before the requirements were changed, I tried it and it was fine." "That's strange. Since it works, there is only one possibility!" Inspur's technical manager suddenly interrupted, "The source code must have been changed." As soon as these words came out, the others nodded affirmatively. "The unique grammar system, complicated logic, and obscure algorithm are not appropriate to describe them as using a cannon to kill a mosquito to achieve such a simple function. The author of this code is obviously showing off his skills, and it is so impressive that I have nothing to say!" "And the weird thing is that, in the midst of the impossible, the function is normal. It's simply terrifying!" After some discussion, the technical leaders of these companies finally came to a helpless conclusion: if they were given another three hours, they might be able to accomplish it together, but it was only a theoretical possibility. "Manager Li, please cast the screen and see if anyone else has any good ideas. Let's brainstorm." This screen projection was not a big deal, as it instantly attracted the attention and discussion of the technicians who had already completed their tasks on site. After all, they were very curious about the problem that even several managers couldn't solve at once. However, after looking at it for a while, everyone frowned and shook their heads. They could see what the original author of the code was thinking. Encryption in both syntax and business logic is like a maze with countless entrances. If you enter through one entrance carelessly, you will go astray and need to re-trace your steps. It takes a lot of time to fully understand it, and this is just understanding it. Understanding and being able to make changes are two different things. The person who can write defensive programming to such a complex level must be a master.
After some discussion, everyone looked at the code on the screen and felt defeated and ashamed of themselves. Wang Defa looked at the reactions of the people on the field, and his heart sank to the bottom. I cursed inwardly, I thought that with so many civil and military officials gathered in the room, great things could be expected; I didn't expect that there was no one available, all of them were useless! If the demand cannot be met, you will face the prospect of making a fool of yourself in front of competitors, Party A and especially government leaders. Failure to pass the acceptance is a small matter, and if you cannot get the final payment, at most you will have worked for a few months in vain, which is acceptable. If word of this gets out, Ziguang Software's reputation will be damaged and it will have to protect its reputation and break away from Shanghe. It will be difficult for it to continue to work in the industry in the future. Its future source of income will be cut off, which is a result it cannot afford. Thinking of the consequences that were about to happen, Wang Defa's scalp went numb. Then, as if he had thought of something, he grabbed Li Jianchao as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw and quickly said, "Jianchao, why don't you give Chen Mo a call? Ask him to call remotely." After thinking for a while, Wang Defa gritted his teeth and took out his cell phone from his pocket. "Forget it, I'll do it myself!" (End of this chapter)
