One Planet for Everyone! Building Science and Technology Civilization at the Beginning

The spring of 2050 came a little late. It just snowed. When the snow melted, the temperature would rise immediately. So as soon as the spring girl comes, you should take off your cotton pants.

Looking coldly at the company's gradual decline, it is not realistic for Zhou Lei, who is almost forty years old, to change jobs.

In this Blue Mercury on the 82nd plane, in Huayuan Donghai City, it is not a problem to be able to mix in a foreign company for ten years, and it is a small success who can stay there. Zhou Lei has long lost his enterprising mind. It is his biggest dream to be able to get some severance pay when the company goes bankrupt and go home and open a store.

In the past 10 years, thanks to the tossing of President Golden Retriever on the other side of the ocean, Citigroup and Huayuan have often fought each other, but each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Huayuan has a population of more than one billion, and the infinitely huge domestic demand allows both state-owned and private enterprises to survive well. As a foreign company, both sides are angry. Either being taxed or kicked out of the supplier list, the company is getting worse day by day.

For Zhou Lei, it was a good day before today, because long ago, there was no overtime work in the past three days and two times, and there was less work and more sleep time. Do something you love.

The only bad thing is that he is not good at speech, so far he is a bachelor. Although living in a one-hundred-square-meter house worth millions, the empty room lacks a hostess. The person he likes doesn't like him, and the person who likes him doesn't like him. No, he's a greasy middle-aged forty-year-old soon.

The company is located in the twin-tower building in the city center. Some people say that the feng shui of this building is not good, as if there are two incense sticks on the incense burner. When I first joined the company in the early years, I would dance every few months, so the property wisely raised the fence, and now I have switched to the Dragon Dream dance in Shuangyashan Park. But no matter what, it is always full of companies and shops, and working here is a lot higher.

Before 9 in the morning, the company on the top floor of the 49th floor was full of people, and almost all of them arrived. Zhou Lei may be the first time he has seen that there are so many people in the company.

After realizing it, Zhou Lei frowned and asked the girl at the front desk: "What's the situation today, it seems that all the leaders are there?"

The front desk replied in surprise: "Don't you know? The headquarters sent someone last week to say that there is a major announcement today."

"What are those foreigners doing here?" Zhou Lei just had a flash of thought after listening to it. He searched to see if there were any new couriers, and then walked to the office area.

Last week, Zhou Lei had a long business trip, so he didn't know much about the company's new situation. But that field service is just a bunch of small things that can be handled remotely, and I don't know what the leader thinks.

I swiped my card and entered the office area. Many people came today, and all the mobile desks were almost full. In order to improve the efficiency of use and save costs, the chicken thief's company only provides less than half of the workstations. After all, some field engineers and sales personnel are not very involved in the company. Of course, there are tin cabinets near the wall, one for each person, which is similar to the kind used by students in American TV dramas.

Seeing the needle, he found a place, put down the backpack, and opened the broken laptop that had been used for 4 years. The D-brand computer of the dignified Citi Country is as stupid as ever, and it is hard to believe that it is not a product of Great Russia. Carrying a heavy computer for a long time and curing my crooked shoulders is caused by the bad living habits in the past.

It took 5 minutes to enter the windows system, and only after the dozen or so company control programs (Landesk, McAfee, etc. software) in the lower right corner of the desktop have been started can they really start working.

Said it was work, but just opened Outlook to see if there were any new emails. Zhou Lei had already swiped his mobile phone mailbox on the subway. Except for a few routine emails from the company's work system, there was nothing to do. matter.

Of course, in the company, you have to open Outlook and the pages for registering time and handling incidents, and it still looks like it will be installed. The rest is to travel around the sky or pull out the phone to read the news or something. If you pretend to be very dedicated, then you need to open a word, type some unknown words on it, and revise it. It seems to be a very important thing.

Zhou Lei remembered that the last new product was sold half a year ago. Fortunately, he was in the after-sales department, and he could still rely on the previous equipment to make a living. Other departments have already left one after another.

In the past, as long as customers did not eliminate the equipment, they could only continue to buy maintenance contracts, so I felt that the major changes in the company this time should have nothing to do with finding a department.

That is to say, people, you must not set up Flag.

No, half an hour later, Zhou Lei was already waiting for the leader to talk in a small conference room.

In this conference room, there have been many meetings, but this time Zhou Lei thought it was the most boring and uninteresting, and it was probably not a good thing.

The leader is more than 50 years old and has been in the company for more than 20 years. It can be said that he spent all the best time here.

Zhou Lei didn't hear what the leader was saying at all, only saw that his mouth was moving all the time, and suddenly there was an idea in his heart, and he was relieved.

"Okay, after talking so much, I think you should understand the company's difficulties." The leader's voice suddenly became normal.

Zhou Lei replied: "I have no opinion on the compensation part. After I have dealt with all the documents that have not been reimbursed, I can leave in the afternoon."

The leader nodded and said, "You wait here first, and someone from HR will ask you to sign." Then he went out.

Zhou Lei opened the curtains of the conference room. Outside was the completed tallest building in the west of the city.

Blocking all the scenery to the west of the twin towers, it feels very depressing. Suddenly I felt that I was able to leave here, and it was a very happy thing. Looking down from the 49th floor, people are like ants, the car is as small as a matchbox, and it is extremely small.

The door was knocked a few times, and the beauty of HR came in. Zhou Lei almost never asked her to do any business or sign any contracts, and actually didn't know her name. Foreign companies would use the same foreign names as Kevin or Tony in the barber shop. Although HR came to the company for four or five years, she signed a long-term contract before she came.

"You look at the company's conditions first." HR handed over a few pages of the list.

Zhou Lei turned it over again, and it was no different from what the leader said. It seemed that everything had been discussed and settled on paper. "I'm fine, that's all."

Zhou Lei also gave up on the company. The influence of the general environment and the murderous behavior of some people in the company did not make enough money for the executives to spend, so the Citizens came to hack people, and the younger brothers were definitely the blame. of.

The compensation will be done according to the 2N standard. Zhou Lei has stayed for a little more than ten years, so he can get 20 months of salary at one time, which is about 300,000 yuan, but he must complete the resignation procedures before leaving get off work in the afternoon, and the money will be credited tomorrow. .

Zhou Lei looked at the time, it was enough to submit the last reimbursement slip by himself, and he didn't have to worry about the rest, so he took a pen and signed his name on the resignation slip.

After Zhou Lei posted the reimbursement and used the MyWorkDay reimbursement system designed against humanity for the last time, he cleared the private information on the laptop and some materials that he did not want to leave behind.

One afternoon, Zhou Lei had already seen that the utilization rate of the small conference room was extremely high, dozens of people came in and out, and almost one-third of the employees were dismissed. Only half of the six people in his department were left, and only one leader and two soldiers were left. Most of the senior and high-paid ones were cut off. So there is nothing to say, as long as the money gives enough figures, we have nothing to say.

After shutting down, he handed the laptop along with the power supply to the company assistant. The large cardboard box under the assistant's feet was already full of returned laptops.

Zhou Lei glanced at the laptop for the last time. After all, he was an old guy who had been using it for 4 years. He had spent the night with himself and dealt with many thorny incidents. Now he finally retired.

He found another express box, ready to empty his storage box.

Zhou Lei is a bit lazy, so when he was cleaning the storage box, he found some long-forgotten items, including some tools, equipment parts that he forgot to return, some messy things, and even a pack of old Expired instant noodles.

He threw away some garbage, and some equipment parts were given to the former leader. The rest were packed in bags, and the rest were piled up in express boxes.

Zhou Lei found a mobile hard disk from the innermost part of the storage box. After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't know where it came from. Because I didn't buy it, and I didn't borrow it from anyone else, a hard drive just popped up out of thin air.

No one wants it, it's in my suitcase now, so here it is, very unpretentious idea.

The sky has cleared up. Today, my backpack is empty. Without a computer that weighs five or six pounds, I feel much more relaxed. But there is a huge express box. It is estimated that crowding the subway will be despised to death, and it is rare to take a taxi home at your own expense.

After the traffic jam, and then the traffic jam, I finally returned home before the even more congested evening rush hour. The journey that originally cost about 20 yuan was blocked to nearly 40 yuan. There is no idea at all about the traffic jams in the city. Whoever can sell a car that can fly that day will definitely buy one, if he can afford it.

After entering the door, Zhou Lei called for a gadget he called a mentally retarded audio. There is no problem with playing music on this gadget. If you ask some slightly incomprehensible questions, the mentally retarded audio will start to ask you if you didn't make it clear. It's been so many years and it's still so bad.

Light music sounded, and the empty room became more popular.

Zhou Lei turned on the power of the desktop computer. This was a server built with parts that the company didn't want. The fan was noisy, but it had been noisy for almost three or four years, and he was almost used to it. The only advantage of the server is that the memory is full, there are more than 200 G, and the CPU is double Zhiqiang. There are also 4 hard drives, but they are big and small, and they are all junk that the company doesn't want. In fact, most of the time this computer is used to hang up and download movies, and occasionally play some old-age games.

The disadvantage is that the boot time can go to boil water, make tea, and just enter the password when you come back.

So Zhou Lei plugged Bai Na's mobile hard drive into the USB port, went to the kitchen to boil water, and made dinner. Of course, dinner was just heating the quick-frozen food in the refrigerator.

This time the startup was very slow, and the screen went black for five minutes before entering the motherboard self-test.
