An Awakened Marching Ant

Ant Army Company.

Zhao Min was looking at the financial statements, her eyes calm.

Relying on the office software, the company had earned over two million yuan in the past two months. Furthermore, user feedback for the office software was also very good; at least in terms of experience, it was more comfortable and smoother than other office software.

Office software could only be a transitional product. Although its functions were stronger, the competition was too great. Many people were already used to their current software and wouldn't switch in a short time.

Next, the company's profit would come from mobile phones. As long as the phones sold well, they wouldn't have to worry about money.

She was currently using a newly produced phone. Even she liked the exquisite appearance of the phone at first glance. It was soft yet grand, appealing to both men and women.

She believed that the phone system and the phone itself would definitely be welcomed when they appeared on the market.

Preparations for the Army Ant System and phone launch event had begun five days ago. Calculating the time, the setup should be completed today.

As Zhao Min was looking at the financial statements, her assistant, Xiao Li, knocked and entered.

"General Manager Zhao, Minister Li sent a message. The product launch event is ready and can start tomorrow."

"Okay."

Zhao Min put down the financial statements in her hand and dialed Chen Mo's number.

Since taking over the Ant Army Company, she had been preparing for the product launch event. A brand new mobile operating system was not an ordinary product. If operated properly, the company would make a splash.

Now there was also the Army Ant phone. These two products, barring any accidents, were enough for the Ant Army to enter the mobile phone market.

Initially, she didn't choose to release the phone system immediately.

The market was a place that devoured people without spitting out bones. If they weren't prepared and released it rashly, they could easily be blocked by large capital, making their development extremely difficult.

"Chairman," Zhao Min said after the call connected.

"What is it?"

In the shop, Chen Mo stopped writing and stretched.

"The launch event for the Army Ant System is ready. It will be held tomorrow at the Marriott Hotel. Do you want to go and give a speech on stage? This is an opportunity to show your face; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say you'll be famous worldwide," Zhao Min said.

"No thanks. I'll just watch you from the audience. I'll leave the launch event to you," Chen Mo said.

"Why?"

"I don't like so many people paying attention; otherwise, my rhythm will be disrupted."

"Alright, see you tomorrow, low-key chairman." Zhao Min was not surprised by Chen Mo's answer. During this time, she had already gained a general understanding of Chen Mo's style.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mo buried himself back in researching computer programming languages.

Two months had passed since he got the book on creating programming languages.

During this time, Chen Mo had spent it researching. He came to the shop every day to design characters for the Chinese programming language.

When someone came to fix a phone, he would stop and work on it, balancing work and rest.

Researching computer programming languages was not a simple subject. The foundation of any discipline, seemingly simple, was actually very complex, especially for the founders.

Designing a keyword required considering many aspects. Sometimes, he couldn't design a single keyword in a day.

What was more troublesome was that Chinese characters were intricate, and their expressions and combinations were also complex.

To better design the characters and expressions for the Chinese programming language, Chen Mo even specifically read through books on Chinese language and literature.

The design of keywords, coupled with complete data types and operations, and various complex settings, all had to be interwoven in Chen Mo's mind.

Once in the zone, various keywords, characters, and phrases flashed through Chen Mo's mind.

The notebook in his hand was also covered with various complex lines. It contained various texts, seemingly chaotic, but subtly containing a certain pattern.

The design of a keyword must first define its meaning and function before it can be included in the keyword list.

He didn't know how long had passed before Chen Mo's thoughts were interrupted by Xiao Yu's voice. As soon as he looked up, he saw Xiao Yu walking into the shop with a lunchbox.

Seeing Xiao Yu, Chen Mo smiled knowingly.

"It's time to eat. You never eat. Are you made of iron? It's almost seven o'clock now," Xiao Yu said with a hint of blame in her tone.

"I knew you would bring food."

"If I don't bring it one day, are you just going to starve to death?"

"Would you be willing?"

"Smart mouth."

Xiao Yu laughed, unable to do anything about Chen Mo. She could only sit beside Chen Mo and pick up her chopsticks to eat.

"Xiao Yu, why don't you move out and live with me?" Chen Mo said while eating. He had been thinking about this idea for a long time and only said it now.

"You really want me to move out?" Xiao Yu smiled.

"Of course, I dream about it. Now I don't know when to eat my three meals; I need someone to remind me." Chen Mo's eyes lit up. Since Xiao Yu said that, there was a chance.

Xiao Yu gave Chen Mo a smile in response to his expectant gaze, not giving him an answer.

From Xiao Yu's expression, Chen Mo knew it wouldn't happen for now, but since Xiao Yu didn't directly refuse, there was still a lot of hope. Maybe one day, she would agree to move out.

After eating, Chen Mo packed up his things, closed the shop door, and left with Xiao Yu. During this time, this was the normal routine for the two of them. Every time they were seen, they made others envious.

"Xiao Yu, I have something to do tomorrow, so I'm taking a day off. The shop won't be open."

"Okay," Xiao Yu replied.

"Aren't you going to ask where I'm going?" Chen Mo asked.

"You're not going to rob houses, kill people, or set fires, are you?"

"How could I? With such a smart and virtuous girlfriend, why would I go robbing houses? Unless I had a problem with my brain."

Xiao Yu wrapped her arms around Chen Mo's waist and leaned her body against his back. "Smooth talker. Take me for a walk by the sea."

"Aren't you afraid of losing track of time again?"

"Dream on."

The next day, Chen Mo stayed in his rented room researching the Chinese programming language. It wasn't until the afternoon that he changed into a casual T-shirt, slung his laptop bag over his shoulder, and left the room.

Today was the official release day of the Army Ant System. Although he, the chairman, wouldn't be on stage, he still wanted to go and see.

The Marriott Hotel, one of the five-star hotels in Bin Hai City. The prices here weren't low, but Zhao Min chose this location for a decent press conference.

The release of the Army Ant System and the mobile phone was not a small matter; it required a formal setting.

Chen Mo took a taxi to the Marriott Hotel and checked the time.

The press conference was scheduled for two o'clock, and there were twenty minutes left. Chen Mo saw people entering the Marriott Hotel one after another, many of them reporters carrying cameras and bags.

Chen Mo followed them in and quickly arrived at the press conference venue.

There weren't many people at the venue. Out of over five hundred seats, less than half were occupied, and there were quite a few staff members. The press conference hadn't officially started yet. Some reporters were adjusting their equipment, while others were simply playing mobile games.

An Awakened Marching Ant!

On the screen, a line of large characters was written in running script, with varying shades of ink blending together, and strokes that were both restrained and expansive. Combined with the futuristic background behind it, the fusion of calligraphy and technology was visually pleasing.

This was the theme of the press conference.

After glancing at the screen, Chen Mo's eyes lit up. He found a corner seat and sat down, quietly waiting for the press conference to begin.

Wishing everyone a Happy Mid-Autumn Festival.
