After dealing with Zhou Mei, Wen Muchen didn't stay overnight, but took the subway back to his current apartment. The life without being disturbed was quite comfortable. There wasn't much furniture, so he felt a little deserted when he came back.

In the past, Wen Muchen was very busy because of his work. After returning home, he basically just took a shower and slept. He asked the part-time worker to come and clean it twice a week. The big house was also deserted, and it was the same here, but this time he decided to change himself. nest.

He absolutely couldn't bear the mess. When he woke up, he found that the original owner had made the place messy and dirty, and there were takeaway lunch boxes that he hadn't thrown away for several days. He didn't think he would take care of himself.

After Wen Muchen figured out his current situation, the first thing he did was to clean the house. If he didn't have any extra money to hire a part-time worker, he had to do it himself. Now that he had time, he would buy vegetables and cook by himself, and occasionally when he was shopping for vegetables. On the side of the road, I saw an old man selling potted plants. He would also add two pots of green plants to his home, a pot of staghorn crabapple on the window sill, and a pot of prickly pear in the bedroom. Wen Muchen would water them when he was free.

Although he was the only one in the house, although it was deserted, when he turned on the lights and saw these lush green plants, Wen Muchen felt much warmer in his heart, they could all live well, and he could live well too.

There are not as many courses in the university as in junior high school, and there is no need for evening self-study. Wen Muchen will use his desktop computer at night to check the current social situation. After understanding, he finds that there is not much change in fact, except that there are fewer online entertainment. .

In the original world, when you open any website, there will be various game advertisement pop-ups, but now he can't find a game that makes him feel fun even if he uses a search engine, even if he downloads a stand-alone game and plays it. He cleared all levels in less than an hour, without much new ideas.

Faced with such a clean network environment, Wen Muchen probably knows the reason. Most of the hot games are stand-alone games, and real online games have not yet become popular. There are some 2D games, and there are also 2.5D games, but these will be eliminated in the future , the player will also go in the direction of 3D.As Zhao Guofu said, the computer industry is booming now, but that's just computers, and now it's just spread to every household. Many people haven't seen more business opportunities in the future, but this is just Wen Muchen's idea, and it doesn't mean No.

Since he knows that online games will be popular in the future, he also wants to share a piece of this big cake, or a small piece, thinking about what he will have to pay for this big cake of online games, and the possibility of eating it .

After closing the webpage, Wen Muchen took a shower and went to bed, and woke up until dawn.

The winter in the south is not as cold as in the north, but if it rains, it will be very sad. Wen Muchen woke up the next day and found that the sky was raining. Fortunately, there is an air conditioner at home, and today is Saturday and there is no need to go to school.

Not in the habit of sleeping in late, Wen Muchen stretched and got up.

He went to the kitchen to cook porridge, put on his coat, and prepared to go downstairs to buy fried dough sticks. Although he lived in the urban area, the community was newly built for less than five years, and there were many old residents around. There was a time-honored fried dough stick in the next block. In the store, he usually eats breakfast downstairs before going out to school. On weekends, he cooks his own porridge at home and buys deep-fried dough sticks to eat slowly at home. Anyway, he is not in a hurry.

Wen Muchen used to like to watch the news while having breakfast, but now he doesn't do that anymore when he makes his own breakfast.

After having breakfast and cleaning up the kitchen, Wen Muchen sat in front of the computer and was about to look up the information of relevant game companies. He needed to know how many companies are currently engaged in the game industry and where popular games have been developed. There are still many differences in different worlds. How many of the game leaders in the past are known, but it is not very obvious in this world now.

After searching for a long time, only a few companies came into my eyes, but it seems that they only release stand-alone games, and there are no games that are too exaggerated or profitable. Online games have not yet become popular, and there are still many opportunities.

He went to a few forums and found a lot of posts about the game. Many of the posts were complaining that the current game was nothing new. He wanted to make the game by himself. Now the game is played by several people. Basically online.

It is the most common in university dormitories. Players can directly connect to each other through P2P or local area network to realize interactive games. Local area network online games are suitable for two computers connected to each other at home, or online in dormitory dormitories. After a quick glance, he couldn't find any game that could attract his attention.

However, the news that popped up in the upper right corner of the forum attracted Wen Muchen's attention—Hengmei Group's "Programming Beauty Challenge".

He continued to click to enter the link address. This Hengmei Group should refer to a software development company. Wen Muchen had seen some games developed by this company before. If you want to say which company is the most promising now, it is Hengmei Group. Its 2D and 2.5D games have received enthusiastic response after their launch and have many players. However, for Wen Muchen, who is used to playing 3D games and developing 3D games, their games are still not very attractive to him.

The website is owned by Hengmei Group Company. Presumably this programming competition is not fake. It contains the rules of the competition, the introduction of the competition, and the content of resources related to the competition.

The competition is divided into four parts: qualifying rounds, preliminary rounds, semi-finals and finals.The qualifying rounds, preliminary rounds and semi-finals are held on online competition platforms, including hihoCoder and CodeHunt platforms.The proportion of advancing to the next round of competition under the two platforms is the same.At the same time, the competition also encourages participants to use two platforms to participate in the competition at the same time, and they will choose the platform with the higher score among the two platforms as the effective score.

The following are related rules about the two competition platforms, including proposition, scoring and ranking rules, code submission mode and its rules, language, sample questions and programs, and the most important ranking rules.

Students who apply for the competition must meet the following requirements:

[-]. Current students, regardless of grade or major.Only students over the age of [-] can participate in the finals; [-]. During the registration and competition, they are not allowed to practice in Hengmei Group and its affiliated companies or institutions; [-]. The participating students will participate in their personal capacity, and each person will participate independently; [-]. Participating students It is necessary to register on the official website of this competition and ensure the authenticity of the registration information.

The competition rewards are still worth a try for Wen Muchen. Two first prizes will be rewarded with 5000 yuan; three second prizes will be rewarded with 5000 yuan; five third prizes will be rewarded with 3000 yuan; The top 1000 in the preliminary competition will receive a beautiful commemorative T-shirt of the Hengmei Group Programming Beauty Challenge.

The specific game time is also detailed. The deadline for registration is December 12, just register online.

From December 12th to 05th is the testing period for participants to test the online competition platform.

December 12th to 11th (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) is the qualifying round. Participants have to answer the questions within 13 hours. If they answer any question correctly, they will be eligible for the preliminary round.

12月19、20日（周六、周日），每天下午14：00-16：00为初赛时间，初赛两天，每天进行一场，每场时长2个小时。每场晋级约500人，共决出1000人晋级复赛。

12月26日（周六）14：00-17：00为复赛时间，比赛时长3小时。复赛共决出50人参加决赛。

From January 01th to 19st is the final time. The top 21 will participate in the three-day final at Hengmei Group. The theme, competition format and content of the final will be announced after the semi-final.

After reading all this, Wen Muchen looked at the date on the lower right corner of the computer. There was still one week before the test stage. The test stage was the week before the qualifying competition, which would start next week, so Wen Muchen still had time to practice more in these few days.

Hengmei Group's programming competition should be widely publicized in universities. After all, it is a good opportunity for junior and senior students, but why didn't he see it in school?

Well, it’s probably because he hasn’t been around the campus at all, and he hasn’t seen any publicity reports. He just came to this school and is not very familiar with it. After lunch in the cafeteria at noon, he went to find a corner in the reading room When reading a book or resting for a while, I didn't go through the student union's bulletin board at all, and I didn't go to the school's official website and forums, so I naturally didn't know.

Phew, if he hadn't seen this news occasionally this time, maybe he really missed it.

Although the bonus of No.1 is not necessarily very high, it is a good income for him as a student. As for whether he will consider employment in this company, that is a matter for the future.

After putting the website in the favorites folder of the browser, Wen Muchen stretched himself, it was time to make lunch for himself.

The next day, Wen Muchen went to the largest bookstore in the city to buy books. He didn't know what kind of questions would be asked. There was still a week to preview and ask the teacher during class.

Back to school on Monday, since the class on Monday morning is at [-] o'clock, almost all the students are here, except for some students who asked for leave.

After class, Wen Muchen finally heard their class monitor talk about the programming contest held by Hengmei Group Company. Some students were still eager to try it, and began to ask the class monitor how to sign up, how to participate, and what rewards and so on. After learning that there was a prize of [-] yuan, everyone They all prepared to compete with a fluke mentality.

Wen Muchen didn't know what other people thought, but he knew that he would definitely participate in this competition.

The square-faced classmate next to him asked Wen Muchen: "Are you participating in the competition?"

Wen Muchen replied to him: "Of course."

The square-faced classmate was stunned for a moment, he never thought that Wen Muchen, who never liked to talk to them, would talk to them at all.

In terms of clothes, Wen Muchen will not treat herself badly. The original owner's clothes are all brands bought directly from specialty stores, and they are a bit expensive to wear. In addition, the original owner does not deal with these students. As time goes by, everyone will say that he is They are not of the same class as the son, brother and rich second generation.

Wen Muchen's sudden answer to classmate Fang Face made the latter a little flattered, and after Wen Muchen left his seat, he said to himself: "Did he take the wrong medicine?"

Wen Muchen, who left the classroom, didn't listen to what the classmate said at all. Before leaving that world, he suffered from stomach problems due to work, and when it was severe, he suffered from stomach bleeding. Now he also pays special attention to a balanced diet, so he must eat enough at noon.

After a week of reading, learning, eating and sleeping happily, I also went to Hengmei's website to register online and tested the online competition platform.There are differences between the two platforms. Wen Muchen himself knows that platform A focuses on testing the players' ability to design forward algorithms, and platform B focuses on testing the players' ability to practice reverse algorithms. He chose CodeHunt, which focuses on testing the ability to practice reverse algorithms. .

After the test period of the competition platform is over, the qualifying competition will follow. According to the rules of the competition, as long as the contestants answer the questions within 72 hours and answer any question correctly, they will be eligible for the preliminary competition. Just get up and do the questions.

I thought the topic would be difficult, but unexpectedly Wen Muchen found it very easy.What he did was a Matlab programming problem. He thought it would take an hour to calculate it, but it didn't take long for him to calculate it, with a total of [-] lines. The Matlab program is mainly used for scientific research, and it is generally not used in the development of online games, but this does not affect Wen Muchen's answer to it.

On December 12th, Hengmei Group's official website released the promotion notice for the qualifying competition of this programming competition. Participants can directly check the promotion status on their registered accounts. Wen Muchen clicked to check if he was promoted.

There was a slight smile on his indifferent and expressionless face, very good, I have qualified for the preliminary round.

That night, in order to reward himself, Wen Muchen made sweet and sour pork for himself. He thought it tasted good and his cooking skills had improved.

It would be great to make a pot of tea after eating, but unfortunately, a phone call interrupted his thoughts.

It was his mother, Zhou Mei, who called. Since he wanted to replace the original owner, his mother was naturally his mother.

Zhou Mei: "Mu Chen, have you had dinner yet?"

Wen Muchen: "Eat."

Zhou Mei: "Do you remember what I told you last time?"

Wen Muchen thought for a while: "Well, I remember."

Zhou Mei: "The other side called and asked if you are free this Saturday afternoon, you can meet up. Are you okay this Saturday?"

Something, Wen Muchen wanted to say, but considering that the other party might threaten him with crying, in order to avoid trouble, Wen Muchen thought for a while and said: "No."

His plan was to play on Saturday afternoon, and it seems he will have to push it to Sunday.

Zhou Mei on the other end smiled and said: "The mother sent his photo and phone number to your mobile phone. You go to the Western Restaurant of Beicheng Garden Building to find Li Chengjun at noon on Saturday. Remember, don't forget."

Wen Muchen: "Well, good. There's nothing else, so I'll hang up."

After a while, Wen Muchen received a text message from Zhou Mei, which contained only the phone number, probably because it was an old phone, the picture was not received and it was cracked.
