Overbearing Immortal Doctor Chapter 1735 - 1834: Worth the Trip

On the other hand, the large building of Shen City Telecommunications stands in the most conspicuous location, and nearby is the destination of Su He’s trip

A data communication bureau.

Several rows of buildings that look like flat houses appear unimpressive, but inside they house millions-worth of servers

In China, during the early days of internet companies, compared to their contemporaries in the U.S.A., there was a significant difference in the use of servers: in the U.S.A., labor is expensive, servers are cheap, so

when programmers are creating architecture, they rarely consider server optimization.

If the capacity is insufficient, just add a few servers since it’s not costly. But in China, the situation is exactly opposite.

The price of a server easily reaches millions, which for a startup is

an astronomical expense. Even in 1999 when overall prices were just a few yuan.

However, contrary to this, labor was exceptionally cheap.

So, to improve the system’s capacity, programmers invested a lot of effort into server

optimization, including sophisticated algorithms, reducing CPU consumption, trying to push some operations to the lowest

level databases, etc.

Thus, you would often see countless programmers busy in the server room; whereas in the U.S.A., servers are almost locked away, and nobody even develops the full potential of the servers.

Gong Hao was brought in to optimize servers.

Compared to the costly servers, spending a few thousand yuan for him to come over was obviously worthwhile. At this moment

in the server room of the Data Communication Bureau, employees dressed in telecommunications uniforms crouched,

all focused on the computer screens, fingers quickly tapping away.

Code streams and sequences flashing by quickly, as Su He arrived at the server room entrance, Gong Hao was busy at work.

This was the time of the earliest batch of programmers in China.

Su He had read about the history of China’s internet and deeply understood the greatness of these programmers, since

the current server optimizations, data calculations, etc., had no books or references

and places to learn from; they were all based on their accumulated experience and intuition.

People in the U.S.A. didn’t need to do this, not even the wealthy domestic financial service providers.

In such grinding circumstances, Huaweng’s programmers gradually developed their own unique core abilities.

This is the reason why China’s future internet would lead the world. It was a

special period where, unable to purchase materials, they could only exploit machine performance to its fullest.

The facts proved that such an era cultivated such outstanding talent tap-tap.

In the heated server room, the sound of countless keyboards tapping fiercely echoed as Su Zhe walked in without anyone

greeting him, let alone stopping him, because no one had the time to pay attention; everyone was busy with their own

work.

Old Xu, what happened, can’t handle it?

"The server CPU is too hot."

A rough and burly man turned around, toward a young bespectacled individual beside the server checking data, who raised his head drenched in sweat, looking helpless:

"Da Li, hold on, my

data expansion is almost done, just one more minute, help me last one more minute."

Alright, mind the temperature, don’t reboot. The young man named Old Xu lowered his head again to start

checking the server’s CPU, trying to reduce its consumption, while Gong Hao and another bespectacled young man were

adjusting the server’s algorithm. The entire server room seemed like a battlefield, everyone fighting

against time with the server. Considering to delay some regions by 0.1 second the data delay, ordinary users wouldn’t notice this delay at all!

If it really doesn’t work, 0.2 seconds is also fine, controlling it within 0.5 seconds. Su Zhe’s voice just then

penetrated into the server room everyone’s ears. The young man surnamed Xu who had just bowed his head to repair the server abruptly raised his head.

Then, there were Da Li and Gong Hao, and another person who had been silent all along.

Four pairs of eyes unwaveringly stared at Su He, all with a ghostly expression on their faces.

Da Li was the first to react, hesitantly saying: You... who are you?

We’ll talk about the problem of who I am later, quickly handle the data, the server is crashing. Su He shouted at the four

Only then did they suddenly come to their senses, Da Li and Old Xu immediately shouted loudly:

"Damn it, it’s going to break!

Old Xu... can’t hold it!"

Don’t panic, use the method I just mentioned, delay the data by 0.1 second quickly, I estimate it can

hold for 1 day. 0.5 seconds is enough to hold for 5 days!

The bespectacled man handling algorithms instructed Da Li and Old Xu, who immediately returned to their computers,

and started quickly processing the data flow.

Su He watched this group of people in a flurry, couldn’t help but smile.

Who could have thought that the future China’s number one group Tencent Company’s three founders would

be in such an awkward state. Old Xu, Xu Chengye!

Master little Mage’s classmate from Shen City University’s computer science department, graduated from University Nanjing with a master’s degree, future Tencent Company’s Chief Information Officer, responsible for the strategic planning and development of website property and community, customer relations, and public relations!

For now, still hasn’t resigned from the Data Communication Bureau, holding a technical backbone position in Tencent Company.

Da Li, Zeng Li, also Xu Chengye’s colleague, an engineer at Data Communication Bureau, among the five founders of Tencent Company, the only one who wasn’t a classmate of Master little Mage, graduated from Xi’an University of Electronic Science and Technology’s communication major.

Future Chief Operating Officer of Tencent Group, fully responsible for the scope of Tencent Group’s business and product variety, and managing the national market promotion work, responsible for sales and promotion.

And the last bespectacled young man who spoke was Zhang Zhidong, future Tencent Group’s executive director and Chief Technology Officer, fully responsible for the exclusive technology development of Tencent Company including instant communication platform and large online application system development.

The QQ program was personally developed by him, Master little Mage merely proposed an idea and concept.

He was Master little Mage’s junior high and university classmate, a genius from Shen City University’s computer science department, in terms of ability,

he even surpassed Ma Huayan.

The two didn’t quite get along during school days, until once Ma Dateng prepared to start a company and found

him, directly hacked through the network into Zhang Zhidong’s computer but was ultimately detected by Zhang Zhidong who traced the IP address.

No fight, no friendship, Ma Dateng gave in:

"I just came to test if your skills have declined over these years!"

In fact, Zhang Zhidong’s technical skills in computing has reached the Hua Realm.

These three are three of Tencent Group’s five founders, along with another named Chen Yidan, also

Ma Daxi’s classmate, mainly responsible for legal affairs, a graduate master from Jinling University clatter clatter!

The entire server room resounded with the frantic sounds of keyboard tapping, until 15 minutes later, Da Li Zeng Li

suddenly

slumped in front of the computer, weakly said, "Never coming back again, it’s like fighting a battle every time!"

In fact, he’d said this N times already.

You think I want to come? Damn it, every time it’s like fighting for my life, I squat and stand, freaking slipped disc!
