Chapter 123 All on the way
Meta Platforms Company Headquarters.
Cassius looked at the data on the screen, unable to suppress a smile.
"Our 'Soulmate' feature has only been online for a few hours, and the data is already so impressive! It won't be long before your Gemini app is deserted!"
"What a garbage app; I can easily replicate it. The Creator is no match for us!"
After talking to himself, Cassius picked up the phone and eagerly dialed Jacob.
"Mr. Russell, our new feature is a huge success!" Cassius reported.
"I saw it. Well done!"
"Mr. Russell, you were so cautious before, but I think you overestimated the Creator team. They're not that great! No one can compete with us!"
Jacob's voice carried a hint of anger. "Cassius, let me give you a piece of advice: don't get too cocky, and never underestimate the Creator! This is just the beginning!"
Cassius frowned, thinking Mr. Russell was still too cautious!
'It is because of your caution that our Meta Platforms Company is confined to Veridiania! Moreover, you are revising strategies lately, advocating for the concept of a comprehensive internet service provider and discouraging copying,' Cassius thought.
'You are too rigid! If I were in charge, our Meta Platforms Company would have dominated the international market by now!' he thought.
Cassius snapped back to reality and responded, "Mr. Russell, rest assured, I will handle it cautiously and give you satisfactory results!"
At the Creator company.
It was bustling with activity! Programmers' fingers flew across keyboards, and the sound of typing filled the air! Designers clicked their mice continuously, eyes focused intently!
Even the internal and administrative staff were moving briskly through the office, running around, delivering documents, and bringing coffee, extremely busy!
Alvin was in his office, not daring to take his eyes off the work progress for even a moment! In his mind, Elbert's 12-hour countdown was akin to a race against time!
"Paul! I'm having a problem here. Can you come over?" A programmer suddenly raised his hand, sweating profusely!
As Elbert approached, He immediately turned to Elbert to look for help.
"Boss, there's an issue with this code; no matter how I calculate, the logic doesn't add up! It's throwing errors!"
Elbert gently patted his shoulder and smiled, "Relax."
Then, the programmer stepped aside. Elbert slowly sat down, interlaced his fingers, and stretched them. The surrounding workstations perked up at the sound.
A pretty female colleague secretly covered her mouth and whispered, "His fingers are so beautiful, long, and fair; he must be amazing at playing the piano!"
Another female colleague said, "What are you talking about? The boss isn't just about beautiful fingers! His face is beautiful as well!"
Suddenly, the rapid typing almost formed a continuous line of sound! Elbert's fingers danced on the keyboard, moving so fast they almost created afterimages! The code on the screen flowed without pause. Line by line, it appeared quickly and smoothly!
The programmers were increasingly amazed! This speed was almost like copy-pasting! And the code was all hitting the mark! There was no redundancy. Both concise and logically clear!
Before joining the company, Robert had helped Elbert integrate top-tier programming skills and the best coding techniques available online! Coupled with Elbert's new human physiology, his finger-to-brain reaction speed was at least 20 times that of an average person!
The computer in front of him couldn't keep up with Elbert's input speed. It started lagging. But Elbert began touch-typing! Two seconds later, the lagging screen suddenly displayed dozens of lines of code!
The programmers' lips trembled slightly.
'This is a truly impressive programmer—no, this is a god-like programmer. He is a beast!' they exclaimed inwardly.
More and more people gathered, forming a small stage around Elbert.
Elbert lightly tapped the Enter key one last time. "Done!" He turned around to see a bunch of stunned faces. Elbert was slightly taken aback, "What, have you all finished your work?"
"Sorry, boss!" Everyone scattered! They returned to their workstations, hearts racing!
'I have to work hard! I want to have the same typing speed and thought process as Paul!' they thought.
The sound of typing filled the air! Creator was busy once again! Striving towards their dreams, towards their idol!
11 hours later.
At Meta Platforms Company Vice President's Office.
Cassius stared at the data screen in front of him. His face turned green! It had been 11 hours since the 'Soulmate' feature was launched. And yet, negative reviews were pouring in!
[What a piece of crap!]
[I thought it was like Gemini app and that it would help me find a soulmate! Instead, it matched me with a bunch of prostitutes!]
[I chatted for half a day, thinking I was matched with a charming girl, but it turned out she was a burly man!]
[I do like off-road vehicles, but why are you matching me with a bunch of car salespeople?]
[You think that's bad? Mine is even worse! My heart has been feeling a bit off lately, and I've been to the hospital a few times. It matched me with a funeral director! Fuck!]
[If it weren't for my clients being here, I would delete this app immediately. It makes me sick!]
[Meta Platforms Company, rest assured, there are countless more negative reviews on the way.]
Seeing this, Cassius's face turned sour. Indeed, as the reviews said, countless more negative reviews were on the way.
He looked at the trembling technical director beside him.
Cassius frowned. "Tell me, what's going on?"
The technical director wiped his sweat. "Mr. Greene, at this point, I have to be honest! Gemini app's technology is not replicable! I've been in network development for 20 years, and I can't understand their code at all! The 'Soulmate' feature we launched is just for show!"
He continued, "It looks like random matching, but it's actually a fake! I was forced by you to create such a thing! I can't achieve real soul-matching! I'm sorry!"
The technical director turned his head, showing a defiant stance!
Cassius staggered! His vision went black, and the world spun!
"Get out!" he yelled.
Suddenly, Cassius's phone rang.
It was Jacob calling.
"Fuck." He instantly broke into a cold sweat!
