The Goddess Shines on America

A word of help, of course Alice agreed unconditionally.

As for why...

Just look at the size of Belen.

With a standard figure of 172cm in the metric system, a pair of long legs accounted for 110cm. The silver hair and the glamorous melon-seeded face matched perfectly, and she was neither big nor small. Although such a combination is not comparable to Victoria's Secret Supermodel, it happens to be the most acceptable beauty for Alice.

"follow me."

Seeing Alice nodded resolutely, Beren waved, took her hand and walked away, Sissy followed unconditionally.

But seeing herself walking towards a corner of the supermarket with a clear purpose, Alice asked curiously, "You want me to buy bread for you?"

"No no, come on."

In just one sentence, Beren suddenly turned around and walked into the staff corridor!

As soon as the surrounding environment calmed down, she immediately faced the two of them, showing a hint of apology: "Actually, Alice, Sissy, this shopping mall is our property."

"What? No way?"

Alice was really surprised. She looked left and right, just in time to see an employee coming out of a certain room: "Ah, Miss Belen, you are here."

Well, sure enough, there is a background, isn't it the attitude that a customer should have when he strays into the staff area?

Belen said to the young man, "Is Uncle Wesker in the computer room?"

The young man nodded and said, "Still worried, have you found help?"

"That's right, Alice is a master in this field!"

With that said, Belen looked at Alice again: "That's right, Alice, the computers in our shopping mall have been having problems since June, and there will always be errors in statistics. We have hired programmers from several big companies It also failed to solve the problem. You are a major shareholder of Microsoft, so you should be able to help, right?"

Seeing the earnest look on Belen's exquisite face, Alice would have no reason to object, and immediately nodded again: "No problem, leave it to me, but Phil, this mall... is really run by your family. of?"

Alice couldn't help being curious, even Sissy smiled wryly and said, "It's in the small town of Windsor, I said Phil, we've been to 'Alice' no less than four or five times this month, you never Didn't you tell us?"

Listening to Sissy call out the name of "Alice" in the mall, Alice looked at the sky...to the ceiling speechless.

All in all, Alice wasn't so bored as to investigate this senior, but it was normal. Being able to stand out from thousands of applicants in the first year of Eton's recruitment of girls, these girls must have their own advantages, and this geographical advantage is also considered a qualification.

"This... just because it is next to the school, so I can't just say it casually."

Therefore, Belen laughed a little embarrassedly. She put her hands together and begged the two earnestly again: "Please don't tell other people, okay? Although this will indeed bring more voices to the mall, But the impact is not very good after all, how about I give each of you a membership card after all this work is done?"

"That's a good idea, I like it~"

Alice laughed and patted Beren on the shoulder: "But don't say these things are useless, little proprietress, hurry up and take us to your computer room!"

The use of computer databases to make statistics on shopping mall transactions is undoubtedly the first of its kind created by Wal-Mart, and its operating model has actually brought endless inspiration to the later online shopping model. Whether it is the statistics of the sales of various commodities, or its mechanism for coordinating the operation of global distribution stations with a high degree of informatization, this kind of big data has been gradually established as early as the 1970s. It was once calculated that the number of computers used by Wal-Mart far exceeds that of any other institution or company in the world.

If Alice remembers correctly, it was during the period from 1985 to 1987 that Wal-Mart installed the company's dedicated satellite communication system, enabling two-way voice and data transmission between headquarters, distribution centers and stores . At this time, there are a total of 4,000 Wal-Mart stores in the world. In this way, they can all communicate with the headquarters in real time through their own terminals, and the cost savings can be counted in the hundreds of millions!

And in the process, do they all need to place orders with those companies in the computer industry?

It was just Belen's asking for help, which made Alice suddenly realize that she had a potential super big client that she hadn't discovered yet!

How many routers, switches, and related accessories are needed for an entire Wal-Mart information management system?

"Alice? Alice? Alice!"

Sissy was speechless.

"well?"

Alice came back to her senses, and then realized that she had been led into the computer room by Belen at some point. Right next to the desk that originally belonged to the administrator, a young man was looking at him with admiring eyes.

"Miss Alice, it's a great honor to meet you. My name is Jimmy Warren. I bought shares in Microsoft and I made tens of thousands of dollars at once!"

It turned out that I met a fan, and Alice greeted him: "Well, that's really my honor, but Jimmy, don't be too anxious to sell it. I assure you, Microsoft's stock is absolutely It is the most valuable blue-chip stock in the world, you can hold it in your hands and wait for the dividends, don't be in a hurry to repay the loan."

"No problem! Oh... by the way, Miss Beren, that... is like this..."

Young Jimmy asked Alice to take a seat, pointed to the computer and said, "The first time something went wrong was a month ago. We found that the sales volume and transaction value in the database were not consistent, but at that time it was just a program failure. But..."

"But this month, there have been four to five mistakes of the same type, which caused us a lot of losses."

Belen continued: "Alice, we have spent a lot of money to hire several programmers and have not found the problem. If you can really recover our losses, I will definitely give you a super-supreme VIP card, with a 50% discount for life! "

Sissy burst out laughing, and Alice also pursed her lips in joy: "Then I am looking forward to it very much. If 'Alice' can be opened all over the world like Wal-Mart, this card is simply a masterpiece. But to be honest, Why did your family give this mall such a name?"

While complaining, Alice has already started working mode.

As the database system of the shopping mall, it is built on the UNIX system. It is a powerful multi-user, multi-tasking operating system that supports multiple processor architectures, and its system stability is far from comparable to that of Windows systems. If the Microsoft series before Win7 had to worry about its blue screen from time to time, then UNIX can be said to run continuously for a month without redundancy. Before the appearance of similar products from Microsoft and other companies, one was almost the only operation in the server field. system.

Based on Alice's ability, it can be said that unless it is a truly intelligent computer that has not yet been released, it is easy to play with any operating system. In the blink of an eye, she saw her fingers typing on the keyboard quickly, countless windows and countless commands appeared on the screen instantly, and they kept appearing and disappearing with extremely high dynamics!

Jimmy, who was watching, gasped immediately.

Could it be that Beren was a colleague of this scene, and whispered: "It's amazing, isn't it?"

Jimmy Warren didn't mean to answer. He looked at the computer he was familiar with, looked at the various windows and command words that appeared on it like crazy, and then looked at Alice with all ten fingers up, as fast as "Bumblebee". He was completely stunned by the extremely precise and ingenious fingering.

"my Lord!"

Alice naturally heard little Jimmy's emotions. She could tell from the boy's temperament that he was probably an ordinary graduate of the computer department of an ordinary university. Absolutely not a master, but it is more than enough to fool ordinary businessmen and be an administrator in the computer room of an ordinary company.

The database failed four or five times in a month, and there were too many possible reasons for this kind of accident, so the first thing Alice did was to check for software vulnerabilities.

It is still 1986, the king in the database field. Although Oracle has been established for nine years, it has not yet developed to the extent that it surpassed IBM in the later period. This small supermarket host does not use Oracle, but an old product earlier than that, and the data model is still very primitive.

So primitive, let Alice stare at these extremely outdated program codes, grinning non-stop.

At the same time, I also thought about it.

"It's a pity that I don't have the money to invest in Oracle now. This bastard is also going public this year, and his annual income has soared to more than 50 million. It's a pity, it's a pity, we have to wait for a while..."

The status of this company in the Internet age is unparalleled, after all, it is the world's largest database provider. For things like databases, anyone who understands the information age knows how much it means to the entire world. It can be said that that is simply Cisco's position in the concept of "Internet"!

If you really want to buy a stake in Oracle, it's actually simple. Alice just needs to imitate what she did at Microsoft. It's a pity that technology investment in a company does not just need to be handed over to the other party. Whether it is patent application, or follow-up training guidance for the company's employees, a series of tasks such as a series of tasks are very busy. In the two years before and after, Alice successively established Cisco with technical achievements, joined Microsoft, and made achievements in other fields. How could she have the time to join Oracle?

After all, something like a database has a low sense of existence after all. If it weren't for this bastard who just went public at the beginning of this year, Alice wouldn't even think of such a company...

"Damn it, damn it Larry Ellison, why was he born so early..."

While complaining, after repeatedly checking every corner of the computer many times, Alice found some clues.
