MTL - Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology-Chapter 11 Lighting up the tech tree is equivalent to opening a blind box

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon when Chen Xiao returned home, and Chen Qiang hadn't come back. Lin Huixiang closed the stall early as usual and was busy in the kitchen.

"Mom, where's Dad?"

Lin Hui hesitated for a while and said, "Your dad hasn't come back from the factory, so hurry up and eat."

Chen Qiang has been suspended by the factory. If the machine tool is not repaired in a few days, in addition to being fired, he will also be tricked into the public security organ as a backer. How could he still be in the factory at this time?

Chen Qiang was probably looking for odd jobs outside to make money.

Chen Xiao was very sensible and didn't ask too much. After eating, he went back to the bedroom, and he wanted to light up the technology tree.

[The cumulative influence is 22. 】

【Do you want to light up the technology tree? 】

Chen Xiao chose【Yes】

[Consumes 20 influence points, and the remaining influence is 2 points. 】

[Congratulations, the technology tree has been lit up. 】

Chen Xiao: "???"

You don't have a choice at all, and you light up the technology tree? random? What is the difference between this and opening a blind box.

Chen Xiao hurriedly checked what was lit up. If he lit up a technological point that was strong in academics but poor in practicality, his plan to make money would be delayed again.

[Technology tree: medical biology (not lit); physical and chemical machinery (not lit); computer information (lit)…]

The system description clearly stated that the lighted technology tree would be very suitable for Chen Xiao's current situation.

It's computer information!

Chen Xiao decided to expand the technology tree of computer information technology.

Soon, Chen Xiao was... depressed.

[Computer information: 1. C language, proficient. 】

C language... the basic programming language, and the language at the bottom of many programs.

It is simple to use, but because it requires a lot of statement syntax to express the purpose, the actual application is very cumbersome.

Before his rebirth, Chen Xiao knew C language, and also used C language to program some small programs, but it was far from being proficient.

Moreover, Chen Xiao was not born to learn software, and he could not say "proficient" in C language before his rebirth.

What can a proficient C language do?

programming.

Although the syntax is cumbersome, it is better than nothing.

C language is process-oriented, focusing on pointers and memory, C++ object-oriented, focusing on objects and algorithms, but C language is the basis of C++.

After a bit of self-study, Chen Xiao can also write some programs that are not very difficult in C++.

If you use C++, it is much easier than C language!

Thinking of this, Chen Xiao calmed down a little.

[Reminder: Lighting up the next technology tree requires 50 influence points. 】

The next time you light up the tech tree, you need 50 influence points.

Then the problem comes, even if you want to make money by writing some small programs, the computer does not...

What a tough time to do!

Can I ask Shen Wei to borrow a computer to use?

Shen Wei's family is so good, she must have a computer.

While thinking wildly, Chen Xiao fell into a deep sleep.

The next Sunday, Chen Xiao went to the library to borrow books on C language and C++, and began to study C++ in depth.

Sure enough, after being proficient in C language, you can understand C++ by analogy. If you can write programs in C++, of course, it is much easier than C language.

…

Monday morning was the day of the diagnosis.

The students arrived in the classroom early and looked forward to it. The first examination was the first test of the college entrance examination, and it was also the beginning of checking for leaks and filling vacancies.

For many students, the results of a diagnosis are actually the results of the college entrance examination.

Just after the early self-study, the head teacher, Mr. Liao, came to the classroom with the transcript. His face was expressionless, and everyone could not guess whether the third class was good or bad this time.

Teacher Liao's eyes first fell on Shen Wei and Su Qiao's face, and finally on Chen Xiao's face.

"This time the first-diagnosis exam is over, and everyone also feels the atmosphere and difficulty of the exam." Teacher Liao said seriously: "The atmosphere of the college entrance examination is more tense and stricter than the first-diagnosis examination, but the difficulty of the questions is simpler than that of the college entrance examination. Some."

"If everyone feels that the question is not very smooth this time, then in the next six months, we must check and fill in the gaps and work harder."

Teacher Liao glanced at some students in the class and said, "The results of our class this time have some small surprises and some surprises. Many students' scores have improved significantly compared to the last monthly test. I hope the teachers of each subject will send the test papers to the students. After coming down, everyone can enter the state of the third year of high school as soon as possible, and analyze the reasons for the gaps.”

"I will announce the results below."

The whole class held their breath.

Teacher Liao has a habit of announcing the results, starting from the last one, but he won't say the rankings for those with poor scores, only the top 20 will read the rankings.

At this time, Jiang Wei and Deng Chao both became nervous.

"Zhang Yi, with a total score of 294, 64 in Chinese, 23 in mathematics... grade 303."

Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School has a total of 330 students, and this ranking is basically the last.

Zhang Yi, who read his name, stood up in disbelief!

"I'm the last one!??" He looked at Jiang Wei and Deng Chao, and was shocked!

It shouldn't be! Jiang Wei's ranking in the Iron Triangle has always been Jiang Wei last, Deng Chao second last, Zhang Yi third last, and Zhang Yi is 20 to 30 points higher than two people, this time should not be!

Seeing Zhang Yi's dazed and funny expression, the whole class burst into laughter.

Teacher Liao said very speechlessly: "What shouldn't be, it's glorious!?"

The whole class: "Hahahaha!"

"Wang Qian, the total score is 305, and the language is 76..."

It wasn't until the fifth-to-last was Jiang Wei, and the sixth-last was Deng Chao. The two took 324 and 331 respectively.

This result has already excited the two of them! Not only is it not the first and second last, but it has improved several places!

Jiang Wei and Deng Chao watched Chen Xiao gratefully. Everyone knows that this is Chen Xiao's credit.

[Influence +2, cumulative influence 4. 】

Zhang Yi's face was even more incredible, and he kept saying, "It shouldn't be! It shouldn't be! Jiang Wei and Deng Chao actually scored more than 300 points in the test!"

The results in the back are quite satisfactory. Basically, what level is the monthly test, and what level is this time.

What everyone is most looking forward to is who will be the top five.

Generally speaking, Shen Wei is the first, Su Qiao is the second, although Chen Xiao is the little prince of science, but because of his poor English, he will take the fourth and fifth places, and occasionally rush to the third.

"The fourth place, Zhu Yingjie, with a total score of 601, 127 in Chinese, 122 in mathematics... grade 17."

Fourth place, finally broke 600 points.

Shen Wei fiddled with her fingernails nervously, while Su Qiao raised her chest and stared at Teacher Liao. He felt that this time he had the opportunity to surpass Shen Wei and become the first in the class.

So far, the teacher has not read Chen Xiao's name, including Shen Wei, the whole class is looking at Chen Xiao, if there is no accident, the third should belong to Chen Xiao.

"The third place, Su Qiao, with a total score of 604, 134 in Chinese, 110 in mathematics, 137 in English... grade 11."

"Ah!" Su Qiao was very surprised, she actually became the third in the class! She didn't make it to the top ten of the grade, this is not progress, but a regression!

Teacher Liao kindly urged: "Su Qiao, you need to add more fuel to mathematics!"

Su Qiao looked at Chen Xiao reluctantly, Chen Xiao actually surpassed himself?

Shen Wei also breathed a sigh of relief, her biggest competitor Su Qiao was third, and it seemed that she should be stable this time.
