Another day later, the little witch Megumi Akiyama, who was informed of the bad news, turned around from southern California and headed north to San Francisco in an RV, and soon saw her half-dead lying on a hospital bed receiving injections, with a haggard appearance, like a zombie Or the starving Qiuhan Chen.

Looking at his extremely haggard face and that unlovely expression, the little witch Akiyama Hui suddenly couldn't help covering her mouth and smiling.

"...Hehehe, poor brother Chen, we haven't seen each other for a few days, why do you look like a mummy?

Ahhhhhh, this is so much fun, you really look like you just got dug out of a pyramid!

Ah, I'm going to take a picture and send it to Sonia, Valentina, and Serena, so they can all admire your beauty! "

Facing Chen Qiuhan, who had shriveled skin, protruding eyeballs, and couldn't even sit up in bed, Akiyama Hui smiled and took out his mobile phone to take pictures, and continued to hurt others, "...you know? You look like you, There is a very appropriate term to describe it: medicine dregs!

By the way, why are you the only one getting drained?The rest of the people who broke into Uber with you are okay? "

"... Drug dregs? Cough! I really feel like I'm about to become a drug dregs. As for why others are fine? Cough cough..."

Chen Qiuhan lay on the bed and moaned, "...Who made me the only extraordinary person there? Ordinary people have no magic power to squeeze!"

While speaking in a hoarse voice, he motioned to the female police officer in charge of the care to open the briefcase and hand over a photo to Akiyama Kei.

Qiu Shanhui took a look at the photo, and found that it was a graceful and evil beauty.

On the gorgeous red lips like flames, there is a playful smile. The curved horns on the forehead push back the long black hair; the dreamlike bright eyes are full of dangerous expressions, and the wide bat wings Spread out from the back, you can see the jeweled claws on the joints, and a flat and slender demon tail with a sharp curved thorn installed at the end of the tail...

"...Uh, those code farmers at Uber are so boring! They actually summoned a succubus?" Akiyama Hui asked.

"...Ahem, this is no ordinary succubus! She is the queen of succubi, Meicanxiet!"

Chen Qiuhan, who was lying on the hospital bed, lamented, "...the code farmer of Uber, this time there is a big news!"

written request for leave

Today, I was forced to be an electric bike rider. After riding a bike for a day under the scorching sun, I was almost sunstroke and dizzy.

——Multiple commanders meet leaders who can't speak clearly and often say wrong words, so they can insist on doing things that can be done by one person in an hour, and ten people can't finish it in a whole day!

No matter how I write at night, I can't write [-] words, so I can only ask for leave again, please forgive me.

Chapter 207, Desperate Code Farmers Made Big News

Since the Los Angeles ghost disaster broke out in early June, and the truth about the revival of spiritual energy and the descending of the gods was officially exposed to the public, various occult rituals, theories, and related books have become popular in the United States and even the entire world. Significant learning.

Especially those Americans, Canadians, and Mexicans who live within the scope of spiritual recovery, are envious of those extraordinary people who have suddenly achieved a class leap and become famous on TV. also"……

As a result, many people racked their brains to engage in occult research, drawing magic circles in the backyard according to the illustrations in fantasy novels, telling a hundred ghost stories according to Japanese horror legends, urinating on crosses in churches, and even group carnivals. Various depraved black magic parties.

In addition, there are those who imitate horror movies, peel apples in front of the mirror, or play psychic games such as Japanese "pen fairy" and "dish fairy".

However, although there are many dead people who engage in supernatural and mysticism, although there are many brain holes and tricks they have come up with, there are very few successful ones.

However, this group of code farmers from Uber successfully made a big death at the end of July, summoning the succubus queen Mei Kanxiet in DND!

By the way, the succubus queen Mei Kanxiet, who was just born and was in a weak stage, sucked up the magic power of the Flying Noodle God Chosen Chen Qiuhan who came over after hearing the news.

Afterwards, two unbelieving flying noodle gods, a man and a woman, were chosen to crusade, but they were also sucked dry, and became the succubus queen's nourishing nourishment.

So, in just two days, the soaring succubus queen, Mei Kanxiet, has gained a firm foothold in Silicon Valley, and no one can do anything about her.

This really makes people don't know how to complain.

At this very moment, Megumi Akiyama is in the detention room of the police station in San Jose (the capital of Silicon Valley) (the largest satellite city of San Francisco), watching this group of Asian programmers from Uber who suddenly transferred to a master of occultism and summoned the Queen of Succubus .

Well, they are basically Chinese or Korean, only one is white, all greasy young men, all of them are highly myopic with glasses, and [-]% of them are fat, and [-]% are bald...It is in line with the American society's procedures A general image of what a member of the ape profession looks like.

"...Tell me, what do you guys think? You actually summoned the succubus queen, Meikanshut?

Do you know what a mess this has caused in San Francisco? "

Sitting behind the table, Megumi Akiyama said to these code farmers who made big news, the words also contained a bit of supernatural power to strengthen the deterrent effect.

And the code farmers on the opposite side have been intimidated by the San Francisco police for a long time, and they may have been lynched without leaving any scars. When I asked a question, I immediately spit out bitterness at every word you said.

——It's as if they've all been given the "True Truth" in "Harry Potter".

"... At that time, I was really desperate, so I tried to draw a magic circle for fun, but I really summoned the Succubus Queen!"

"...Thinking about it afterwards, summoning the succubus queen is really frustrating, but what is even more desperate is that even if the succubus is summoned, people will look down on us! If we weren't kicked out by the succubus queen, we I won't be in the police station now. This feeling is really... hopeless!"

"...If you want to die, you will die. Han Chuang has studied hard for so many years, got a scholarship for the TOEFL test, and sold the house for us to pay for our tuition. It is hard to find a job in Silicon Valley and settle down... Who knows that it has only been a few months. The United States has become like this! It's so hopeless!"

"...Some of the people around me died of illness, and some became disabled without dying of illness. No one knows how many days they can live. It's really hopeless!"

"... want to give up on yourself and have a good time, now that the price of goods is soaring, we don't have much money in our hands, and we are not the kind of social people who can speak well, and we can't find girls in bars-those white girls always laugh at us Asians People's faces look as if they've been flattened by a frying pan.

Look for those girls who stand on the street, and you are afraid of meeting female poisonous insects or "ice girls", contracting dirty diseases...or worse, being jumped by a fairy.

As for taking drugs and weeds, if we can really go on, we probably won't be sitting here.

So desperate!Why can't even such a humble wish of falling in love and being happy for a few days be realized? "

"...Speaking of which, I was considered a star at the school level in my hometown. I won awards every year when I was studying. I was a student union cadre in college. After going abroad, I became the most promising person in the village. But in the United States, That's bullshit! Even the waitresses in the restaurant look down on me!"

"...Black people say they are oppressed and exploited, but it is much easier to get white girls than us! I don't know why these black people who smell so heavy that they can kill flies can always easily get girls at parties Hooked up? Could it be that American women only look for their muscles when looking for a man? Desperate!"

"...No women, no money, no status, no safety to speak of, just living one day at a time... Despair!"

"... We have studied hard for so many years, and we haven't enjoyed any joy of youth. Is it just to be the bottom of society in the United States?"

"...I can't even survive the day! There is another wave of layoffs in Silicon Valley, and the White House is taking the lead in anti-Chinese, saying that they want to cancel our work visas!"

"...If it was the United States in the past, I would never believe that there would be such an inexplicable anti-Chinese trend, but it is hard to say now.

The current White House is really a hell. They actually sanctioned a small policeman in Fujian Province. What weird things they can't do? "

"...If you cancel your visa, just cancel your visa. Staying in the United States these days is not as good as going back to China as a [returnee], just go to Shanghai to find a job. But now that China and the United States have stopped flights, the air ticket to return to China after traveling through half the world has already increased. If it costs more than 2 US dollars a piece, it doesn't matter if you can't buy it at all!

If it drags on, I'm afraid the visa will be cancelled, and I won't be able to return to my hometown. Maybe someday I will be reported by the prison of the Immigration Bureau! "

"...The cancellation of the visa is just a rumor, and the layoffs have not yet been implemented, but before that, I can't afford the rent! The landlord directly announced that the rent has increased by five times! And Uber has entered bankruptcy On the eve of the eve, our salary did not increase by a dime! We are still in arrears!

Now I have been kicked out by the landlord and have to sleep in the car, waking up every day with a pain in my neck..."

"... Hey, my luck was even worse, I didn't even get to sleep in the car - I got out of the car and found a place to take a shower, and when I came back, the car was gone!

Now I can only settle down in the company on the floor, and sometimes I have to sleep outside... Fortunately, it hasn't rained in the past few months..."

——It’s really full of absurd words, and a tear of bitterness, so that people don’t know how to complain.

Although they were basically complaining and crooked, far away from the content of the question, it did make Akiyama Hui dumbfounded.

"... Huh? There is a wave of layoffs in Silicon Valley? Isn't there a shortage of people everywhere in the United States now? The news media are wailing about the labor shortage every day!"

Hearing that these programmers were about to face layoffs, Kei Akiyama couldn't help being stunned, "...how come Silicon Valley is going to make big layoffs instead?"

"...Hey, Miss Miko, what is happening in the United States is a labor shortage, not a shortage of code farmers! What is lacking in the job market are truck drivers, construction workers, and nurses who take care of patients! It's not us programmers! I'm a See it through, in today's America, we are the bottom!"

The age shown on a certificate is only 28 years old, but his appearance is obviously prematurely aging. Looking at a 48-year-old Chinese programmer with hair loss, greasy round face, and a chubby Chinese programmer, he said with such a mournful face, "...the major high-tech companies are obviously planning to give up. Silicon Valley is here, and now the layoffs are the layoffs of the entire department! If you lay off 70% or 80% of the staff at any time, even if you become a company executive, you may not be able to keep your position!

Only a small number of people can follow the company's new headquarters and relocate to Florida in the east, but the salary will also be greatly reduced!

And the Uber company we work for is even going bankrupt, and there is no chance of moving to Florida, so we can only wait for a breakup..."

All in all, all in all, since the outbreak of the "Corona" epidemic, Silicon Valley high-tech companies in San Francisco, in addition to allowing employees to work from home and work remotely, have begun drastic layoffs and salary cuts, canceled projects and closed down in batches Department, aroused a howl of misery.

——Only in March and April, Silicon Valley laid off a full 15 employees, and at the same time, hundreds of technology companies went bankrupt.

After the news of the revival of Reiki came, and the whole of California, including San Francisco, was haunted, the layoffs of high-tech companies became even greater.It has basically reached the point of "family shoveling", cutting off 95% of the old employees at every turn, and only bringing a few key confidants to Florida.

And the hundreds of thousands of code farmers who were left in Silicon Valley have become the most desperate group of people, their futures are ruined, there is no way out, and class decline is a foregone conclusion!

Many foreigners who come to Silicon Valley to work hard think they are elites, but in fact they find out that they are just unimportant props and consumables.

——As the U.S. economy has turned from the real to the virtual over the years, the major high-tech companies in Silicon Valley, led by Indian executives, have become more and more pragmatic and unrealistic. Money, playing finance as a chore, but unwilling to delve into the needs of bottom-level customers.

A high-tech unicorn company, the office is luxurious, the executives are dressed in bright and beautiful clothes, and various exhibitions and seminars are full of sci-fi style. At first glance, they are high-end and classy, ​​and they are shocking from the senses. One by one is louder than one, and the concept of playing is flying.

But the problem is that these concepts are often still just concepts in the end—or worse, they are simply money-making scams from the beginning.

But it doesn't matter. In the process of playing with the concept, the company has harvested a large number of leeks from the financial market and made a lot of money.

Under the atmosphere that Silicon Valley companies as a whole are turning to retreat, and American society as a whole is increasingly rejecting Chinese Americans, those Asian programmers who are used to do practical things have become the most frustrated group of people. What kind of code farmer do you want to raise?Shouldn't it all be outsourced?

The code farmers who sit in the office and type on the computer every day seem to be very tall at first glance, but in fact the technical content is very low. Just find someone with a little basic and train for a few months, and you will be able to get started. (I don't care whether you will knock out the "shit mountain" code or not).

With the dream of becoming the next Jobs or Zuckerberg, these programmers came to Silicon Valley to become "silicon drifters". From the outside world, they should enjoy a healthy lifestyle, a comfortable climate and decent treatment, but in fact they are It is enduring high rent and super-intensive work.

It was the once-outbreak, or at least the dream of owning a house in the Bay Area, that kept them going.

Now, faced with a frenzy of layoffs and the imminent decline of the entire Silicon Valley, their dreams have been completely shattered, and even their bodies have collapsed.

——In the pervasive "Corona" plague, many programmers died in Silicon Valley, and those who survived the recovery often left sequelae. Some unlucky people contracted diabetes and chronic hepatitis because of this , Some people have lost their masculine dignity forever.There are more convalescent patients who seem to be recovering well on the surface, but in fact they are basically unable to do heavy work, and they are out of breath after a little movement.

With such a weak and sick body, it is obviously impossible to support them to continue burning for their dreams.

So, they were completely desperate, leaving only resentment, anger and longing, which made them create a miracle in their despair...

"...After getting those code farmers to tell the truth, I understand why this group of laymen can summon the Succubus Queen.

And there are so many occult Internet celebrities who talk to fans in front of the camera every day on the Internet, and they have drawn countless summoning arrays, but they have not succeeded even once.

In the final analysis, supernatural power ultimately comes from the human heart, and it can only come from the human heart. Without human beings, there is no magic.

Any gods and demons originally come from the human spirit and imagination. The stronger the spirit, the stronger the spell. "

After inquiring about these code farmers who made big news, Qiu Shanhui returned to the hospital, and said to Chen Qiuhan who had finally recovered a little bit of vitality, "...your fellow countrymen are cowardly, but the pent-up resentment in your heart , have been able to catch up with the legendary [Go to die die group].

With such fanatical desires and such huge negative energy, what monsters and ghosts cannot be summoned? "

Chapter 208 : Die the Poor Ghost!

Nowadays, the cyberpunk society that originally existed only in science fiction has become closer to the real world.

In other words, the real world of human civilization has become more and more cyberpunk with the development of science and technology.

The very few rich and powerful are extravagant, and more than 90% of the resources are concentrated in the hands of a small group of people, living in two worlds with the common people.

The people at the bottom are so exploited that they have no food for their families, and they owe a lot of debts, and it is not appropriate to even lie down and be a rice bug.

One can only either be a homeless person and sleep on the street hungry, or go to prison to squat to collect soap, or devote all his life to a place of shelter.

Therefore, even though the high degree of urbanization has wiped out the vast rural population, the people at the bottom of the United States can only huddle in dilapidated houses in slums, and their living standards will always be stuck above and below the food and clothing line.Although surrounded by the most advanced technology, it can't bring them much happiness.

——Even the "otaku" who seem to have a low style of painting are benefits that only a few people who don't want to work hard can enjoy.

Behind every successful otaku, there is a pair of successful parents - there are conditions for lying flat, how can you lie flat if you have no money?

If you want to be an otaku, the minimum premise is to have a "house" - in China, if you don't empty out the whole family's six wallets, you don't even have a small house, how can you live in a house?In the United States, if you can't pay property taxes and property fees, you just wait for the house to be confiscated and kick you to the street to wander.

In short, people used to work as serfs in the shacks on the farms, but now they work as house slaves and card slaves in the dilapidated houses among high-rise buildings, that's all.

The current poor can at least have a good dream freely while sleeping. In the future, when the intubation interface behind the head and human-computer interaction technology are mature and applied, the life of the low-level civilians is estimated to go to work and overtime during the day, and live in a two-square-meter apartment at night. Coffin room, spend money to play virtual world in dream.

Or even worse, poor people have to work in their dreams even when they sleep at night, so that they can afford the high rent...

And those code farmers in Silicon Valley who are not sociable and lack the relationship of the opposite sex are by no means the most painful in life, but they are often the ones with the most resentment in their hearts.

Because...without expectations, there will be no disappointments—conversely, if the expectations are higher, the pain after failure will naturally be more severe.

Those starving people who have no culture and experience of the world may be satisfied with three full meals a day in the refugee camp.

But these Chinese code farmers who are "silicon drifters" in Silicon Valley are not ignorant turkeys, but have a heart that is unwilling to be ordinary.

——Any Chinese code farmers who have the ability to get a green card to find a job in a high-tech company in Silicon Valley in the United States are basically pretentious geniuses at home when they were young. "Other people's children" in the mouth of many parents.

As we all know, in China, everything is low-grade, but reading is high.Children with good test scores can always enjoy more smiling faces and preferential treatment, which also makes them more confident, thinking that they will definitely be able to stand out in the future.

Next, these Chinese elites came to Silicon Valley through life-long efforts, looking forward to marrying wives and having children in this land full of dreams, and settling down.

After successfully entering a high-tech company, listening to the self-packaged fortune stories of those successful people, they all became more energetic. They felt that even if they could not be rich in the future, they should at least be middle-class, with cars and wives. A bunch of kids, and a big house.

Otherwise, if you can only live in a small rented apartment in Silicon Valley, if you are a single dog, wouldn't all your good grades for so many years be in vain?
