“Director Qin, Fourth Master has raised the bar, do you think First Miss can do it?” The seven of them sitting in the workspace were wondering as well.

Director Qin narrowed his eyes at Qin Ran. He was barely 30 years old and spent quite a bit of his time playing games and scrolling through Weibo.

Qin Ran's incident blew up so much online, it was no surprise he knew about it too. He said, “First Miss will likely surprise us…”

“Is that so?” The man beside Director Qin was a little stunned.

Qin Ran scanned the information on the screen.

The test was largely related to software and computing items.

The Qin family used to be one of the four powerhouses.

Qin Ran heard Cheng Juan mention before that any heir of these four powerhouses not only needed to be competent in the software matters but also had to be capable of managing the company operations.

This was something Qin Ran was very unfamiliar with.

Back in Yunguang Consortium, she never had a hand in the management of operations. Lu Zhixin and the rest would never bother her with it.

Hence, Cheng Juan spent the week telling her more about company operations, management, and strategic planning.

2

Qin Ran was a much better “student” than Qin Hanqiu and learned a lot faster as well.

But even the smartest person wouldn't be able to figure the company matters out in a week. Cheng Juan predicted that Fourth Master Qin would test Qin Ran about the Qin Firm matters and so collated all the recent news and issues regarding the firm. He then talked Qin Ran through all of it.

3

The content on the first desktop was about the management system and strategic planning in the firm. It also included analysis questions about investments.

Qin Ran realized that they were similar to what Cheng Juan had come up with.

But this was still her weakness. Having only spent one week learning about it, Qin Ran took a longer time to tackle these questions than dealing with her Physics stuff.

Moreover, the questions were especially tricky, since Fourth Master Qin set them with the intention of failing her.

But Qin Ran had a good memory. She could remember what Cheng Juan taught her when she focused, and Cheng Juan's analysis was impressive as well.

If he had been around, he would have realized that any example that had come up in his teaching before would have been regurgitated word for word in the test.

As for the questions that he had not touched on, Qin Ran worked around with what information she had and adapted them.

1

The entire test was two and a half hours.

Under usual circumstances, one should take half an hour, at most, to get through each desktop. That was the only way to complete the whole test.

The weighting of the questions in the first desktop only took up 10% of the entire test, and it was considered the easiest of all. The other six desktops touched on software rather than hardware and were typically considered to be much harder.

1

Qin Ran already spent one and a half hours on the first desktop…

Director Qin, who had been observing her, couldn't help but frown.

As a player of the Kyushu Tour, he had some expectations for Qin Ran.

But it seemed like… Director Qin was about to be disappointed.

1

The man beside him turned around and shook his head slightly. “Director Qin, I think this Eldest Lady is rather ordinary…”

2

Taking an hour and a half to finish just the first section was only average compared to the rest.

Director Qin stood up. “I'm going out for a bit. Call me when the time is up.”

1

He couldn't bear to watch on.

The teachers in the workspace were already talking.

Fourth Master Qin and the other shareholders were having an even bigger reaction in the meeting room.

The surveillance cameras could not capture the content on the desktop, they could only see Qin Ran's back view. But that was enough to tell that she'd been stuck on the same desktop for an hour and a half.

There was only an hour left and six more desktops worth of questions to complete, all of which were about coding and the software systems.

2

The questions were set in increasing difficulty. On the last desktop, she would be asked to find a solution for the firewall loopholes in the entire company. Even the technical experts would have to take over an hour to solve it.

1

The only reason Fourth Master Qin allowed them to take part in the test was that the election was way too difficult to get through. Any ordinary person would not make it.

Fourth Master Qin had no more doubts left.

He leaned back in his chair and watched Qin Xiuchen, with a smile on his face and a teacup in his hand.

A moment later, Fourth Master Qin looked away and happened to see Director Qin take his leave on the screen. “Isn't that Director Qin from the Technology department? Where's he rushing off too? For all we know, his niece might be able to solve the coding question on the second desktop.”

The shareholders had been sitting at the meeting table for an hour and a half.

Some of them who'd considered whether to take Fourth Master Qin's or Qin Xiuchen's side dismissed their thoughts right away.

Qin Xiuchen and Butler Qin were silent in the face of Fourth Master Qin's snide remarks.

Butler Qin knew that Qin Ran wasn't good at the strategic planning component. He whispered to Qin Xiuchen, “Sixth Master, Miss should be able to complete the third desktop questions…”

There was only an hour left, but Qin Ran wasn't just anybody.

She'd been able to write her own codes four years back. Butler Qin believed that she could tackle three loopholes.

As for the quality of her responses… that was another matter.

Most of them in the meeting room were in discussion.

After Director Qin's departure, there was also a bit of a commotion in the workspace.

But Qin Ran wasn't distracted.

She submitted her responses on the first desktop and went straight to the next.

After submitting, the content would be directly sent to the first manager's desktop. But he did not even bother looking at the responses he'd received. He was simply looking at his cell phone and waiting for the next hour to pass so he could leave.

1

The shareholders were also having their own conversations in the meeting room.

Fourth Master Qin was talking to them about the operations analysis question.

Five minutes later.

They were busy chatting when one of them suddenly looked at the surveillance footage, completely stumped.

“What is it?” Fourth Master Qin asked as he turned around to look at the screens.

Qin Ran got out of the second seat and went to work on the third desktop.

Fourth Master Qin smiled. “Seems like she's done…”

1

10 minutes later, Qin Ran headed for the fourth desktop.

Fourth Master Qin restrained his smile.

20 minutes later, Qin Ran went to the fifth desktop.

The meeting room went silent.

Half an hour later, Qin Ran went to the sixth desktop.

40 minutes later, Qin Ran went to the seventh laptop.

50 minutes later, she came out.

The shareholders in the meeting room were practically holding their breaths.
