Chapter 441: A Perfect Finish
Chapter 441: A Perfect Finish
"What is this?"
Having just arrived at the school, Mo Jingchun was planning to report to the defense team when he saw his counselor under the teaching building.
It seemed like a coincidence just a minute ago.
Now Mo Jingchun knew, the counselor was waiting there specifically for him.
Taking the white opaque plastic bag handed to him by the counselor, Mo Jingchun was quite puzzled.
"What’s this?" Mo Jingchun opened it and immediately realized it was clothes, with a hint of red inside.
"Your doctoral gown, the graduation photo for our class is specially arranged for this afternoon."
"Make sure not to lose the clothes, you have to return them to the school after the photo shoot."
Mo Jingchun was a bit taken aback, feeling both amused and bewildered.
He thought only bachelor’s gowns were reused every year, turns out doctoral gowns are the same.
Could the school be lacking this small amount of money? Clearly not!
Perhaps it’s for environmental conservation.
Anyway, Mo Jingchun couldn’t think of any other reason.
"I won’t go up. The school has regulations that counselors cannot appear at the defense site during the graduation defense period."
"Oh, by the way, Li Xuanyu is not in your defense group, she should have told you."
Mo Jingchun smiled, wanting to say she really hadn’t.
"Hey? Where’s Candy? I didn’t see her."
"It’s the defense, I’m afraid Candy might cause trouble, so I let her stay at the hotel."
"Is that so? Remember to bring Candy in the afternoon; how can our class graduation photo miss her?"
"Definitely."
Two years ago, Mo Jingchun also took a class photo, but he was the only one in a bachelor’s gown then.
It’s different now. The whole class is in bachelor’s gowns, and he’s in a doctoral gown.
Haha! Imagining the expressions on his classmates’ faces will be quite a spectacle.
Watching Mo Jingchun go upstairs, Li Na didn’t leave as Mo Jingchun had imagined but was waiting for someone.
About ten minutes later, Li Na smiled and walked towards a figure running over.
"Li Xuanyu."
"Ah? Sister Na."
With a laptop on her back, Li Xuanyu walked towards the counselor, puzzled.
"Sister Na, you were looking for me."
"You’ve always been at the company, not present for the class meeting, so I thought I’d remind you of a few things."
Li Na smiled kindly and said, "Don’t be too nervous during the defense, just go with the flow."
"The defense teachers won’t make it too hard for you."
"Some of the questions professors ask might be a bit profound, but sometimes you don’t need to mind too much; if you don’t know, just say so and ask humbly, it won’t affect your defense results."
Li Xuanyu nodded seriously and couldn’t help but laugh:
"Sister Na, I know, Mo Jingchun told me too."
"Defense, defense, just answer without arguing. Highlight the problems, apologize profusely. Lacking in technique, limited in ability. If you want to defend, see you next year."
"That guy." Li Na shook her head helplessly.
"That’s the logic, but you can’t just slack off, after all, this is Jing City University, and the defense requirements are certainly higher."
"It’s getting late, you should go up now."
"Oh, right, come to my office after your defense."
"Okay."
Walking step by step up the stairs, Li Xuanyu still had Sister Na’s words echoing in her mind.
Go to her office after the defense.
Actually, without being told, Li Xuanyu could guess, Sister Na probably still wanted to persuade her to continue with postgrad studies instead of continuing to work at Candy Technology.
But Li Xuanyu had already seen through it. From the moment she gave up on the research route, further studies didn’t hold much meaning for her.
In the internet industry, major companies indeed care about educational background, but that’s for fresh graduates entering the workforce.
For society members, regardless of which company, the focus is more on technical strength.
And also...
Li Xuanyu smiled warmly and murmured to herself, "It’s never too late for further studies, but not for love."
The spacious, bright classroom was filled with students.
In the first two rows of the classroom, six defense teachers and a young man, presumably the recorder, were seated.
Finding an empty seat, Li Xuanyu sat down.
She hadn’t felt anything earlier, but as soon as she stepped into the classroom, in that tense atmosphere, her heart began to race involuntarily.
Taking out her laptop to prepare for the defense, Li Xuanyu could clearly feel her heart pounding vigorously.
Nervous! Even though the classroom air conditioning was on, her palms were sweaty.
At eight o’clock, after a few simple words from the young recorder, this year’s graduation defense officially began.
"Sun Dewei, next, Yang Yuxia, please prepare for your defense."
She didn’t know these two people; Li Xuanyu had long observed the classroom, and there were only seven people, including herself, from the same class.
After yesterday’s incident at the hotel, she specifically bought a dock station to prevent none being available in the classroom.
The fact proved that Li Xuanyu’s attentiveness was correct.
"Lin Xiuhui, next, Li Xuanyu, please prepare for your defense."
Almost her turn, so nervous.
About fifteen minutes later, with the approval of the defense teachers, the girl on the podium confidently packed up her laptop and walked down.
Without needing the recorder to call, Li Xuanyu nervously walked up to the podium with her laptop, starting to connect it to the multimedia.
"Li Xuanyu, next, Luo Shaoqiang, please prepare for your defense."
Preparation work had already been done when she was below, and she had tested the system several times.
Opening the meticulously prepared PPT, Li Xuanyu took a deep breath and with a smile said:
"Good morning, teachers and classmates, my graduation defense topic is..."
After a few sentences, she found the feeling from yesterday and began enthusiastically explaining the PPT, then while explaining, she demonstrated the dormitory management system.
"Teachers, my presentation is over."
Below the podium, the six defense teachers exchanged smiles, then an older professor said with a smile:
"Your dormitory management system is already a mature product. I glanced at the code, and it’s simple, logically clear, and very well-written."
"At first glance, I didn’t notice any obvious bugs. You must have actually tested it, right?"
Is this the first question? Of course, Li Xuanyu didn’t have much time to think deeply.
"Yes, teacher, the system I developed has already been applied to all employee dormitory buildings at Candy Technology and has undergone multiple simulation tests by Candy Technology’s internal supercomputer."
"Not bad! Tell me, how did you achieve high concurrency and large traffic."
"Got it, teacher. Achieving high concurrency and large traffic is not difficult, you just need to..."
One question after another, Li Xuanyu answered fluently; the deep questions she imagined didn’t appear.
Back at her seat, it was then that she realized that at some point she was no longer nervous.
Her heartbeat was normal.
It seemed... perhaps... that the graduation defense wasn’t as terrifying as she had imagined.
