The Wife of the Wealthy Family Is Fierce and Cute Novel - Chapter 164
Chapter 164: The Passionate Dave
Chu Luo and the four boys turned around at the same time.
They saw Dave walking towards them.
Dave walked closer and saw what they were looking at. He asked enthusiastically, “Is Bai Ling interested in these data?”
After saying that, he looked at the other boys and asked tentatively, “I heard that you guys are students from the Imperial University’s Computer Science faculty. Could it be that Bai Ling is also a student from there?”
The information about Tang Zhiyun and the other three was not confidential, so it was reasonable for Dave to ask this question.
However, the four of them were a little worried.
They were worried, what if everyone dug up Junior’s identity by investigating the four of them?
“No.” Chu Luo wasn’t worried at all. She said, “One doesn’t have to be a computer science student to like these things.”
After saying that, she turned her gaze back to the data. It was obvious that she had no intention of chatting with him.
Dave, however, didn’t seem to notice Chu Luo’s coldness. He continued, “Bai Ling shouldn’t be too old. What major do you study? A girl who likes computer-related knowledge must be different from other girls.”
Chu Luo couldn’t be bothered with him this time.
Looking at her flawless chin and the beautiful outline that could be seen even with a mask on, Dave continued to guess. “I think you must be very interested in games. You’ve loved playing since you were young?”
Chu Luo still didn’t answer. Tang Zhiyun and the others exchanged a look and Tang Zhiyun said politely, “Mr. Dave, Bai Ling is usually quiet and doesn’t like to interact with unfamiliar people.”
What he meant was: Can you not keep asking her stuff?
Dave glanced at the four boys. As if he had not understood what Tang Zhiyun meant, he said with a smile, “So it wasn’t my imagination. But Bai Ling is so good at playing games. It is normal for her to be quiet.”
After saying that, he said to Chu Luo, “Bai Ling, how about we have a solo PK when we have time? It’s a pity that we didn’t meet in the preliminary and semi-finals. Otherwise, we could have had a proper spar.”
The four boys thought to themselves, ‘If we really met in the preliminary and semi-finals, you won’t be qualified to stand here.’
Seeing that Chu Luo was looking at the data in front of her, Dave said, “I’m a computer science student too. I know a lot about these things.”
As he spoke, he talked about the conversion and transmission of the data and the composition of the program.
Chu Luo listened for a while before finally turning to look at him.
Even Xie Minghai couldn’t help but praise, “I didn’t expect you to know so much, Mr. Dave.”
Dave’s smile wasn’t humble at all. “I was interested in this since I was in university. After that, I self-learned many game programming languages. Later on, I even developed a few game programs with my friend.”
“Awesome. Is Mr. Dave also developing his own game program right now?”
“That’s right. It’s just a few small games that are attached to large websites. They can’t compare to a full-service game like ‘Battle of Lightyears.'”
“That’s very impressive.”
The boys were already interested in this, so Dave’s words immediately piqued their interest.
Soon, the boys and Dave were talking.
Chu Luo listened to their conversation casually and didn’t reply.
Everyone chatted as they looked around. Soon, an hour had passed.
After looking at the game equipment and related procedures and converters for the past few generations, everyone was gathered together by the staff.
At this moment, someone suddenly asked, “I heard that the endorsement deal with Annie Belle for this generation of ‘Battle of Lightyears’ is about to expire. Will you still look for her to renew the contract? To be honest, I’m very fond of Annie Belle. She is the eternal goddess in my heart.”
The staff smiled and replied, “That is the decision of the company’s higher-ups. I don’t know about it.”
The man said confidently, “I think no one except Annie Belle can push ‘Battle of Lightyears’ to the peak.”
After this person finished speaking, the others looked at him awkwardly.
Even Yu Lei couldn’t help but whisper, “This person must be obsessed with chasing after celebrities. I think even if we don’t use real people to advertise the games under Blazing Glory, the games can still stand at the peak.”
The staff member only laughed and said, “Our research and development center is very big. If you want to finish seeing it in one day, you have to hurry up. So, I’ll lead you guys to take a look…”
After the staff said that, he led them inside.
Previously, everyone had felt that this building was like a gigantic egg. After entering, they realized that it wasn’t just huge.
The hall that was at least 500 square meters was only a corner.
After that, the staff led everyone around many places.
Every place made everyone gasp in surprise.
In the afternoon, the staff led everyone to the latest database.
There were several R & D maintenance personnel working in the database.
In front of them was the 4D scrolling data.
“Wow! So the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ version we’re playing now has so much data in it. Heavens, I’m dazzled.”
“These programmers are too amazing. How did they come up with such a huge amount of data?”
“If a bug appears in the system, how are the maintenance personnel supposed to find it?”
…
As the saying goes, industry insiders look at the tricks while outsiders watch the show.
Gamers didn’t necessarily have a deep understanding of computers. While those people were gasping in surprise, Chu Luo and the others quickly looked at the pattern of these data.
Not long after, Xie Minghai smiled and said, “As expected of the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ game program. If I had to program these programs, I wouldn’t be able to do so even if I were killed.”
The rest of them glanced at him, and Yu Lei said, “These programs were originally created by gathering the results of many people. If you can come up with them alone, ‘Battle of Lightyears’ wouldn’t need game programmers anymore.”
“Haha, I’m just sighing. Just now, they mentioned bugs in the program. Actually, I’m also very curious what their system’s bug alarm looks like.”
Dave chimed in, “I think the first person on the left is responsible for the bug alarm.”
Everyone looked over.
Just then, an alarm beeped. The person quickly followed the red dot on the database to fill in the gaps.
“I didn’t expect you to be so familiar with this, Mr. Dave.”
“Haha, it’s alright.”
At four in the afternoon, the staff announced, “Ladies and gentlemen, today’s tour ends here.
“Ah, so soon? I don’t feel like I’ve had much of a tour.”
“The database of ‘Battle of Lightyears’ is too big. After looking at it, my mind seems to be filled with program codes.”
…
While everyone was talking, Dave walked to the staff and asked in confusion, “Why didn’t you take us to see the research and development database of the ‘Battle of Lightyears’ gaming capsule?”
The staff said apologetically, “The gaming capsule is still classified at the moment. Even I don’t have the right to enter.”
“I thought our tour today included the gaming capsule database?”
Dave looked disappointed.
After he finished speaking, the others couldn’t help but grumble.
“My biggest goal in visiting this place is to see the gaming capsule. Why don’t you let us see it?”
“That’s right. Even if we don’t look at the gaming capsule’s database, it’d be good to look at the gaming capsule directly.”
…
No matter what they said, the staff kept apologizing that he had no right to show it to them.
In the end, everyone could only give up.
After walking out of the building, Dave walked to Chu Luo and the others and said, “It’s dinner time. Guys, shall we go eat?”
The boys looked at each other. Tang Zhiyun said, “No need. We have something to do.”
“I’m sure you don’t want to go to dinner with me.” Dave looked sad. “I don’t mean any harm to you. I just want to be friends with you.”
After saying that, he looked at Chu Luo and said, “I see that Bai Ling is very interested in those data programs. Coincidentally, I’m also in this field. I can tell you all about these things over dinner.”
Tang Zhiyun and the other three were a little tempted when they heard this. They had coded small games before, but compared to Dave, who had been in this field for a long time, they were still not good enough.
If someone could speak to them about this, it would be equivalent to listening to a teacher giving a lesson.
They turned to look at Chu Luo.
Chu Luo said, “I have something on tonight.”
“A meal won’t take long. You can leave early if need be,” said Dave earnestly. “If you’re worried about crowds, I’ll have a meal with you guys alone. It’s fate that we got acquainted in the competition. As friends, you can ask me if there’s anything you don’t understand.”
Chu Luo glanced at Tang Zhiyun and the others, lowered her eyes, and thought for a moment before nodding. “Alright.”
“But if you want to eat, go to the hotel we’re staying at.”
“No problem.”
Everyone walked out of the gaming company building. There were actually many people and reporters outside.
Xie Minghai couldn’t help but mutter, “These people are too persistent. To think they’ve been waiting for us outside.”
Yu Lei couldn’t stand it anymore. “We’re not celebrities. Why are they so enthusiastic? I still wanted to play around in the US. Now, I don’t even dare to leave the hotel.”
When Dave heard this, he gave them an idea. “If you really want to go out and play, why don’t you change your clothes so they won’t recognize you?”
“Hey! That’s a good idea.”
David talked to his teammates before getting into the car that Chu Luo and the others were in.
When the car arrived at the hotel, there was still a group of reporters and gaming fans guarding below.
When they saw the group of them walking over, they were instantly excited.
The hotel’s security guards quickly went over to stop them.
However, these reporters and gaming fans were a little crazy tonight. The security guards couldn’t stop them. Soon, someone rushed over.
“You guys go in first!” Dave shouted and shielded Chu Luo.
Tang Zhiyun and the other two led Chu Luo into the hotel.
When they saw someone blocking their way, they immediately attacked Dave.
Xie Mingtao couldn’t stand it anymore. “Why are these people so crazy tonight? I think Dave can’t hold them off anymore. I’ll go over and help.”
Chu Luo looked at the group of people and Dave, who had been punched several times. She raised her hand to stop Xie Minghai. “Don’t go over. Let’s go in first.”
