Chapter 38 (2/2)
But inside MIT, baozixuan's plan is to be recognized by the computer major of the college. Baozixuan, who was already a celebrity in the college, soon took the black cloud office software to the computer department for system test through Joseph Kane. The test result was that Professor Harry Roland of the computer department asked Joseph to take baozixuan directly to his laboratory.
Professor Harry Roland, 56, participated in the development of the world's first computer, although he was only a student at that time. But it has a lofty position in the whole computer industry.
Bao Zixuan came to the computer experiment at MIT. Looking at the great God who can rank in the top 20 in computer history, he was in a trance for a while.
Harry Roland: ”Hello, boy, I've heard about you. In modern theoretical mechanical physics, you have been at the forefront of this era. Originally, I thought you only had deep attainments in machinery, but I didn't expect you to have such a solid foundation in computer software. The two business software you wrote well solved the financial calculation and storage of modern companies. It is no exaggeration to say that your two software can save at least 100 million tons of paper on the earth a year. You are like planting 700 million trees for the earth every year, saving 10 billion cubic meters of water, which is a thing for the benefit of all mankind. What makes me happy is that such great software was born in MIT students. At the same time, what makes me sad is that the students who write such excellent software study mechanical manufacturing rather than computer. It seems that the computer major of the college needs to recruit more excellent young people! ”
Baozixuan didn't expect that a small software could be respected by Professor Harry Roland. Rise to the height of benefiting mankind, this is the thinking of MIT! If you are modest, you should be modest and say, ”you flatter me. I don't think so much.”
Harry Rowland: ”I want to recommend your software to the American Computer Association for certification, but I have a question. As far as I know, you have never learned systematic financial knowledge. How did you think of writing financial office software! I have to know the antecedents and consequences of your creation of this great software. ”
Bao Zixuan: ”because of my mother, Professor Roland, I am a Xiangjiang child who grew up in a single parent family. My father died before I was born. Since childhood, only my mother brought me up with one hand. There are no other relatives. My mother is a professional accountant. He could have worked in a big company, but in order to take better care of me, he chose to undertake the accounting and tax problems of more than a dozen small companies at home. At that time, Xiangjiang small company was not very standardized. They often sent the account books at night. They must check the accounts and give them them tomorrow. Therefore, my mother often calculated the accounts late at night, sometimes even all night. When I first saw that computers could do calculations, my dream was to use computers to write programs so that more people like my mother would no longer have to work so late. ”
Joseph Kane did not expect that this normally optimistic big boy had such a miserable childhood, and he was not knocked down by difficulties, but did his best through his own efforts.
Americans like heroes, especially stories about mothers who are willing to give up many opportunities for their sons and simply train their sons to become talents.
Harry Roland: ”I see why you can write such excellent software. You have a persistence to do things, and you have a great mother. May I ask what your mother is doing now? ”
Bao Zixuan: ”she opened a pastry shop with my father's insurance compensation and the money she earned over the years. Now I don't want him to work too hard, because I have my own company in Xiangjiang. At present, the company benefits very well, but she is not a person who can relax. She basically goes to the store every day. ”
Harry Roland: ”thinking of the black cloud icon on the software, I didn't expect that you developed the game my grandson likes to play.” Ha ha ha ha
Bao Zixuan: ”I really founded the black cloud game company, but I didn't expect your grandson to like it.”
Harry Rowland: ”package, I will recommend your software to the computer association. At the same time, I hope you will study for my doctorate in computer science. Computer software alone cannot go far. ”
Bao Zixuan: ”I'll think about it seriously, professor.”
After the two talked for a while, baozixuan left Harry Roland's laboratory.
