The Terror of Chinese-Character Programming

The chairman of Bluehole Group's face darkened.

They had already received a warning from the Federal Court. It had not even been issued privately—it had been announced across the entire internet.

"Bastards! How dare they do this?!"

"Didn't we give them enough money?!"

The chairman of Bluehole Group roared furiously, practically exploding on the spot.

"Chairman, this is no longer a matter of money. It concerns programmers around the world. We simply cannot crack Warfire Hero's core technology. Even programmers worldwide are unable to crack it. So the claim that they plagiarized our technology is impossible. That's why they won't continue handling this case!"

The Technical Minister at his side spoke.

Upon hearing this, the furious lion fell silent, his face full of dejection. Their accusation against Ye Fan had failed this time, and they had even gotten themselves covered in filth.

The whole world would probably know one thing now: Bluehole Group had no shame.

That was not a good reputation.

"Chairman, after the Federal Court issued its announcement today, the number of users online in our backend dropped by another thirty percent. We currently have fewer than three hundred thousand users online," the Technical Minister said through gritted teeth.

Fewer than three hundred thousand. For them, that was a devastating blow.

"Launch a free skin event. Also, organize an international tournament in the Tian Chao Region, with a prize pool of five million."

The chairman hurriedly voiced the plan in his mind.

The Technical Minister beside him nodded in satisfaction. This was a good solution.

At the end of the day, Warfire Hero was only ahead in terms of core technology. The game itself was not particularly fun.

A thousand-player Team Fight—how could that be turned into an esports competition?

Would a thousand people all participate in a match?

Wasn't that a joke?

Meanwhile, inside the conference room, every programmer sat quietly and listened to Ye Fan's lesson.

Ye Fan demonstrated more and more Chinese-character cultural tutorials, and his explanations became increasingly easy to understand. Quite a few people had already learned a little. Given more time, they would understand. However, seeing through Warfire Hero's core technology was still exceedingly difficult. At the very least, they could now use Chinese-Character Programming to write a small piece of code or perform a simple formula calculation.

Chinese-Character Programming was even much simpler than English programming.

At the very least, Chinese characters were their foundational language, a language they had studied their entire lives. Naturally, programming with them was much easier.

In the Livestream Room, countless foreigners watched the broadcast while having others translate for them, yet their faces remained utterly bewildered.

Even after the translation, they still could not understand what it meant. Chinese characters represented thousands of years of cultural accumulation in China. How could they possibly understand them?

"Teacher, why can Chinese-Character Programming raise the defense coefficient so much?" A programmer raised his right hand and shouted, excitement written across his face.

Ye Fan smiled, the corners of his lips lifting. "Why? Because their calculation formulas and methods are different. Sometimes, one Chinese character can represent many meanings. On top of that, the two languages are incompatible. For example, if I use Chinese-Character Programming and you use English code to attack my computer, it will be directly immune!"

"Because the two languages are simply not on the same level. How could Chinese-Character Programming allow English programming to invade it? There is no need to explain which culture stands higher. There is also the compatibility issue. They cannot be made compatible, so trying to breach it is simply impossible!"

Whoa!

As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, the room erupted.

"Teacher, do you mean that if we use Chinese-Character Programming for all domestic game software, application software, and everything else, other regions will be unable to breach them?"

"What if this kind of programming is applied to the military?"

Boom!

The room erupted once more. Everyone stared at Ye Fan excitedly. If that were true, it would be utterly heaven-defying.

It was terrifying.

Ye Fan smiled helplessly. "Of course it can be used for military purposes, but our company currently has no intention of developing in that direction. Besides, all I am doing now is teaching this knowledge to you. How you use it will depend on yourselves. If one day you master it, there will be opportunities for you to contribute to China."

As soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, the room instantly grew noisy.

Everyone discussed it in low voices. It was as if they could see an unprecedented grand future. If they learned it, wouldn't they have more job opportunities, and better ones at that?

Especially since Chinese-Character Programming could not be invaded by English programming. Based on that alone, people around the world would scramble to learn Chinese-Character Programming or fight to hire programmers from China.

Everyone looked at Ye Fan with deep respect.

They grew increasingly respectful, admiring, and reverent toward Ye Fan. Their fervor was immense; they were like fanatical believers.

As for Qin Jiang, who stood behind Ye Fan, his entire body trembled slightly.

This...

His eyes widened, filled with shock. Why?

He felt that his boss seemed to be a Divine Person. Ever since Warfire Hero went online, he had laid out plans all the way to this point!

Had he thought of it all long ago?

Starting from using the Four Major Mobile Phone Brands' Press Conference, he had made every plan so perfect. So his boss had long known that Bluehole Group would accuse them, and even that they would force him to reveal the core technology. Once the core technology was made public, Chinese-Character Programming would sooner or later be discovered.

Even if Bluehole Group did not reveal it.

Other game companies would discover that this was a program made with Chinese-Character Programming. Once that happened, things would blow up.

They would also learn that Chinese-Character Programming could not be invaded by English programming, which would draw the attention of certain people.

When the time came, this technology might be forcibly confiscated, and Future Technology Company's path might even come to an end.

But what did his boss do?

He directly made the technology public and taught it, allowing everyone to learn it. This way, no one would focus their attention on them.

He had also directly avoided a massive crisis.

That was what shocked Qin Jiang to the core.

His boss was fucking brilliant.

From the initial setup all the way to the end, everything had been so perfect.

By evening, the lesson had ended.

Ye Fan returned to the company as well.

Inside the office.

"Qin Jiang, hasn't the laboratory been completed yet?" Ye Fan asked as he looked at Qin Jiang.

"Chairman, it's nearly finished. It can be inspected and accepted tomorrow," Qin Jiang said with a smile. He admired his boss more and more now.

After Qin Jiang left, Ye Fan thought about how the prestige points he had gained today had already reached one hundred thousand.

He could now exchange them for an even more advanced technological product.

For example, industrial robots.

Or the Big White Personal Health Assistant, or Terminator Robots. Ye Fan liked all of them very much.

Who wouldn't like robots?

Of course, some people would talk about a robot apocalypse. Robots rebelling.
