Later, she was made permanent staff, and rumors said she was about to be promoted to Deputy Director of the Office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the Jinghai Eastern Bank system began holding skill competitions, she had always placed first in every typing contest—unshakable—and won the prize money every year, naturally sparking resentment from employees of other branches, yet no one had ever successfully challenged her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Zhang Rong suddenly mention this, Fang Qingye became interested: “What’s your plan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Rong didn’t answer directly but asked instead: “Where’s Sister Liu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“She’s over at the counterfeit bill identification team. Should I call her over?” Fang Qingye said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye pulled out his phone and called Liu Meili; within minutes, Liu Meili came down the stairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead,” Fang Qingye said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Most people use Wubi for typing contests, but I don’t—I use Sogou Pinyin,” Zhang Rong said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Meili was surprised. “Huh? I’ve only heard of Smart ABC, Smart Double Pinyin, and Microsoft Pinyin—I’ve never heard of Sogou?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sogou is also a Pinyin input method. Its biggest advantage is its powerful prediction function—it lets you create new words and even full sentences. But this input method has only existed for less than two years and hasn’t been widely adopted,” Fang Qingye explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fang Qingye is right, Sister Liu. I can show you.” Here, Zhang Rong turned to Fang Qingye:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Has your computer downloaded Sogou Input Method?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he usually used Wubi, who didn’t know Sogou?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let me use it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye didn’t refuse. He entered the General Office, turned on his computer, and Zhang Rong sat down, opening a blank Word document and typing a line of text.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See? I used Sogou’s prediction feature—next time I type this line, it’ll be much faster.” With just a few keystrokes, the entire line appeared on screen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is faster than Wubi!” Liu Meili immediately noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly. That’s the power of Sogou’s word and phrase prediction,” Zhang Rong explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In our bank’s typing contests, participants usually type bank reports filled with technical terms—phrases like ‘Lian San Lei Liu,’ ‘Xian Xi Hou Ben,’ ‘Tui Hui,’ ‘Chong Zheng’—standard Pinyin can’t predict these. But we pre-create these terms in Sogou, type them repeatedly until they appear at the top of the suggestions… like this.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Rong created the phrase “Lian San Lei Liu,” typed its Pinyin several times, and soon the term appeared at the very front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“See?! That’s the power of Sogou Input Method! If we combine that with regular typing practice… Li Lifen may be skilled, but she’s over forty. I don’t believe I can’t beat her!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hmm, your method is good—but I have a question,” Liu Meili said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What question?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If you use this Sogou input method on Xiao Fang’s computer, will those custom words still be there on another machine? You can’t bring Xiao Fang’s computer to the city for the competition.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as you register a Sogou account, every time you log in—on any computer—you’ll have all your custom words,” Zhang Rong explained with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Meili was skeptical, glanced at Fang Qingye, and when she saw him nod, she believed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Zhang Rong, with this secret weapon of yours, our unit might actually win the typing contest!” Liu Meili laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Rong showed a hint of pride, but it vanished quickly. He added: “Sister Liu, I wonder if the city branch even allows competitors to use their own preferred input methods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Probably fine… but to be safe, I’ll call the city branch tomorrow to confirm,” Liu Meili said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Liu, you might as well ask one more thing: can contestants bring their own keyboards?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why bring a keyboard?” Liu Meili was confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you're used to your own keyboard, it helps typing speed,\" Fang Qingye added from the side, then continued: \"Zhang Rong, your request won't fly—every contestant bringing their own keyboard? Each person using their own? The branch won't allow it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Exactly. Forty people competing—each carrying a keyboard? What would that look like?” Liu Meili agreed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hehe… Sister Liu, I know bringing a keyboard isn’t allowed. But it’s just a distraction,” Zhang Rong chuckled. “I heard the union staff at the city branch are all older, barely understand computers. I’m doing this so they won’t even notice or care that Sogou exists.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha… Zhang Rong, you’re clever,” Liu Meili laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye silently thought: this guy has too many tricks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Liu Meili called the contest organizers and got a quick reply: “The city branch doesn’t care about input methods—use whatever you like. But keyboards must be provided by the city; otherwise, some branches might ask to bring their own computers—would they also carry those to the city?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hehe…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just waiting for you to say that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Meili and Zhang Rong were both satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye had no objection to using Zhang Rong as the “secret weapon.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he couldn’t shake the feeling that things weren’t this simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purpose of this typing contest was to improve bank employees’ practical skills and overall competence, yet Zhang Rong had resorted to a clever trick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, he wouldn’t speak out—since nothing prohibited it, it was within the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition was scheduled for the last Sunday of July.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Eastern Bank’s branches operated on a rotating shift schedule on Saturdays and Sundays—only handling personal transactions while suspending corporate services—the workload was lighter, so group activities were typically held on these two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On July 26, the annual Jinghai City Eastern Bank System Skills Competition kicked off at the branch headquarters building, where contestants from the headquarters and seven sub-branches gathered to compete in four events.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Nanxin Branch team had arrived in the city the night before and checked into a hotel near the branch building.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Branch Manager Xia He led the team, accompanied by Deputy Manager Su Ming, Director Wu Shengli of the General Office, and Liu Meili.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Qingye did not go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only fifteen official contestants were participating; having one director and one key staff member from the General Office handle logistics was sufficient. Fang Qingye felt no need to attend, as it would save the unit travel expenses, and besides, he had personal matters at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both reasons were strong enough—Wu Shengli approved immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, he just wanted to rest on the weekend—we work hard during the week, but don’t take up my free time; he planned to go fishing on Sunday.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At nine the next morning, all contestants gathered in the 9th-floor conference room of the branch building. Branch Manager Zhang of the city branch delivered a passionate speech on behalf of the leadership, wishing the contestants to compete with style and excellence, and so on…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the leaders finished speaking and left the hall—including all branch managers—only the contestants and support staff remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The competition officially began.\u003C\u002Fp>",1227,"2026-06-20T05:58:40.725Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","753d13706cb64f3c725434faff4df08995aa637ad96bf648972c4da5ec19a49a","i-m-in-a-small-county-and-you-say-i-m-a-big-shot-chapter-48","i-m-in-a-small-county-and-you-say-i-m-a-big-shot-chapter-46",215,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-in-a-small-county-and-you-say-i-m-a-big-shot-cover.jpg"]
