Fingers Dancing Like a Wild Gale

Hearing such overbearing words,

The two intellectuals wished they could find a hole in the floor and crawl into it.

It was as if their dignity had been thrown to the ground and trampled.

But neither of them dared say no.

If a guest commentator from any other country had said this, they would have already started a war of words with them.

Even taking a step back, if Brandon had said it, they would have argued with him.

But these words had come from someone in power in the Sea Eagle Country.

Even if he was only a member of the Sea Eagle Country's staff, they could not afford to take his words lightly.

His position might not have been particularly high.

But he had the ear of those at the very top.

He could whisper in Lord Madison's ear.

How would they dare offend him?

The two could only back down, not daring to resist at all.

"Sorry, we were rash just now. We're terribly sorry!"

The Night Cherry Country commentator even stood up and bowed to everyone present through the screen. "Sumimasen, sorry for the trouble, everyone!"

Then he cast his vote for Ye Jin.

Compared with the reluctance of the Rose of Sharon Country commentator, he had handled it perfectly, his face full of embarrassment.

Everyone: ...

That Night Cherry spirit of the bowing craftsman...

And his attitude toward admitting his mistake was first-rate.

It perfectly matched the saying: admit it when you're wrong, and stand at attention when you're beaten!

Meanwhile.

Ye Jin was in the library, his fingers dancing wildly across the keyboard.

His eyes were alight with excitement, as though he were doing something extraordinary.

Viewers around the world looked at his hands on the keyboard, then at his expression, waves of confusion washing over them.

It was all gibberish. Was it really that exciting?

At first, the camera had taken a few looks at his keyboard.

Then it had switched to the screen.

After that, it had found the screen too boring as well.

In the end, it had no choice but to turn to his face.

Reading in a library was a very boring affair to begin with, so they had not sent many cameras there. The few they had were spread across the library.

There was only one camera behind Ye Jin.

And there was no need for more.

It moved back and forth around him, introducing the library and its facilities to viewers around the world.

At the same time, it occasionally glanced at his screen.

Ye Jin's hands moved faster and faster.

His finger movements were impossible to make out, his hands leaving afterimages.

Like a wild gale dancing.

As though they would never tire.

It had been almost an hour.

His hands were still moving just as fast.

He showed no sign of stopping to rest.

On an island where humanity had disappeared,

In an empty library, a man was using a computer to type out countless strings of gibberish.

No matter how one looked at it, the scene was bizarre.

Many people could not understand what he was doing at all.

They were utterly baffled.

"His hands are getting faster and faster. They're almost too fast for me to see. He must have already passed 800, maybe even close to 900."

"I don't know what he's trying to do. What's the point of typing a bunch of gibberish in a library? I'm speechless!"

"At first I thought he was playing around, but now? He's fucking playing around!"

"I study computer science, but I can't figure out what use these strings of gibberish could possibly have when put together. There's no logic to them, no thought behind them."

"Ye Jin probably just read some computer books without really understanding them. Now he wants to show his worth and make his presence felt!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a shame. He doesn't realize that billions of people around the world are laughing at him."

These opinions were tinged with varying degrees of malice.

But some people held different views.

"These things look like gibberish, but maybe there's something hidden in them that you can't understand. Ye Jin is a genius. Do you think a genius would shoot without a target?"

"Don't go mocking things you can't understand, or you might get your face slapped again and again in a moment."

"Has Ye Jin done a single thing you could understand? Heh, don't blame others for your own low level."

"Maybe this pile of gibberish is a piece of peerless code."

They had unparalleled confidence in Ye Jin, even more than he had in himself.

They did not know where their confidence came from either, but whatever Ye Jin did was awesome.

Simply invincible!

"When the camera swept past just now, I wrote a piece of code following his logic, but I found that it wouldn't run at all."

"Can the cameraman pay a little attention? You keep circling around him. I want to see his screen, but every time you linger for a dozen seconds and then turn away. Can you give me a chance to look?"

"Please send a few more cameras over. One camera just isn't enough."

Most of the people making these requests were programming apes.

They wanted to find out what Ye Jin was actually doing.

The camera kept circling around him and hardly looked at his screen, because it thought it was too boring.

As fellow programmers, they also wanted to roast Ye Jin.

But they found they simply could not.

Because Ye Jin was far too serious.

Deeply focused, with a delighted expression.

It did not look at all as though he was doing something meaningless.

They thought: ...

Where does he get so much confidence from typing a pile of gibberish?!

If I had confidence as strong as yours, I'd have gotten into Tsinghua University or Peking University long ago.

The host, Brian, also saw the requests in the bullet comments. "Please wait a moment, viewers. We'll turn the camera to his screen. If there are any experts in computer science, perhaps you can explain it to us."

Soon, another camera was directed at his screen.

The whole pile of gibberish on his screen was displayed.

Soon, a software developer from Microsoft Corporation stepped forward and said:

"Our team just ran a test and found that the gibberish on the screen is unrecognizable and has no logic to it. We can say for certain that this pile of gibberish was typed without conscious thought."

He spoke with confidence.

As the head of Microsoft Corporation's software development department,

He had absolute authority.

What was more, he had one of the most powerful development teams in the world.

If it had been ordinary code, he could have recognized it at a glance.

After verifying the result, he found their earlier expressions as they had stood ready for a challenge amusing.

There had been no need to verify it at all.

It was just a pile of gibberish that could not have been any messier.

Brian nodded. "It seems our contestant Ye Jin really is under some pressure, and he's started relieving it this way."

"But he's been relieving it for quite a long time. It's been over an hour now, and he'll still feel tired. I admire his mental fortitude."

At that very moment,

Ye Jin took a deep breath.

He twisted his neck and body.

It was finally complete.

Over an hour's worth of code.

This had been converted from an advanced civilization's code into Blue Water Planet code, to return to the original warship through information transmission.

And what he had made was merely a function for transmitting information.

Naturally, no one else in this world could understand it.

With everyone watching,

He pressed the completion key.

It marked the perfect completion of the code.
