If you don't animate, you will die

Chapter 224 The Virtual Country (2077 III)
The supervisor’s criticism this time finally ended in the next moment. In the end, the supervisor asked Liu Wei to sit down and looked at everyone with anger in his eyes, “Remember all of you, don’t have a second nationality! Then you won’t be able to find Any job, the company will block you and become a person rejected by all companies!"

After the supervisor finished speaking, he announced the adjournment of the meeting. Finally, he looked at Liu Wei, "Liu Wei, come to the Prime Minister's office later."

The supervisor turned his head and left, but we still sat on the conference table and did not leave. A girl who was looking at a laptop began to exclaim, and the words "Zheng Lili" appeared beside her.

Zheng Lili's expression was exaggerated, her mouth opened wide enough to put down an egg, "I'll send it to you in the group, something big happened again!"

I asked, "Which organization was attacked again?"

Zheng Lili shook her head, "No, no, it's a bigger matter, the IT Republic has declared war on the United Nations!"

After everyone heard her words, the entire conference room fell into an uproar. I was also shocked, and Qiangzi on the side also looked surprised, and then smiled again.

I also took out my old mobile phone. On the full screen of the mobile phone, a new message appeared, clicked to enter the web page, and the news appeared on the screen without any delay.

I turned on the external projection, and there was a small holographic projection on the conference table in front of me. On it was a news broadcast.

In the video, the announcer has a gloomy face, and he announces, "After the United Nations vetoed Resolution 3617 of the IT Republic's request for recognition and was passed by the Security Council, the IT Republic declared war on the Entity International, and the attack on the world's financial system began half an hour ago. The financial systems of countries around the world may soon collapse..."

After everyone in the conference room heard it, some were shocked, some panicked, and some gloated, but no one could remain calm.

I was like Liu Wei, but he showed a very surprised expression. I asked him, "You don't know about this? The actions of your IT Republic."

Liu Wei also looked confused, "I haven't used the computer today, it may be a temporary decision, and my authority is not too high."

His expression was a little helpless, I just nodded and didn't continue to ask.

However, it also made me think of something else. I stood up, looked at the supermarket outside the building, and then looked at the deposits in my bank card.

Frowning, if the currency really collapses, what should I do with my Kiyan plan?
This incident made me very distressed. I straightened my collar and continued to look at the picture on the desktop.

At this time, the screen suddenly changed, and the news screen switched to a certain metropolis.

The camera takes a bird's-eye view of the streets between high-rise buildings, with long traffic jams and people rushing out of their cars and buildings on both sides, as if there was a major earthquake.

The camera switches to a large supermarket again, the crowd rushes in like a black tide, crazily scrambling for goods, the rows of shelves are crumbling, like a sand embankment washed away by the tide, and a large number of goods fall from above onto the shelves of the supermarket On the ground, many people started looting.

Some people started fighting in order to snatch a box of instant noodles, and various chaotic scenes began to appear. The scene turned to the street again. Many people were holding the things they had obtained and running on the street. They were still running. Or they rushed into some vehicles, and the cars on the street began to run very fast, and then quickly drove to other places...

A frightened expression instantly appeared on my face, and my tone was also frightened, "What are you doing?"

"Don't you understand?!"

Zheng Lili started to scream. She covered her head and looked at the screen in panic.

"The rich and the poor will be equalized! Everyone will be penniless! Hurry up and grab food!!"

Her words caused everyone present to change their expressions again. The first episode also ended at this moment.

In the first episode of "Earth 2077", chaos began to occur. The attack on the Kiyan people and the political demands of the IT Republic were the source of this chaos, and the protagonist happened to be involved in it.

The protagonist itself is "I", that is, every audience has participated in it. It is not clear whether the life extension that the protagonist is about to obtain will be ruined because of this, but it is true that the protagonist's interests may be damaged. It also made many people worry about being the protagonist.

In any case, as long as the audience still has a sense of substitution for the protagonist, they just hope that he can live a better life.

The second episode of the animation, as soon as it comes up, is the inner monologue of the protagonist, "Of course I understand! But I can't believe that these things have become real."

The scene of scrambling for things in the supermarket was replaced by the scene of me buying things, "Traditional banknotes and coins stopped circulating 30 years ago, and now even if you buy a pack of cigarettes at a small street kiosk, you have to swipe the magnet. Any card will do.”

My voice was contemptuous, "Haha, in this information age, what is wealth? In the final analysis, it is just a series of pulses and magnetic marks in the computer memory."

"In the old days, there was a saying that money was just a bunch of numbers. Now, it is about to lose its meaning as money. IT Republic, haha..."

"For the IT republic, whose citizens account for nearly half of the IT workforce in the physical world, it would be easy to erase those stigmas."

This paragraph of explanation, accompanied by the picture of money and IT Republic’s online chat, is spoken by me, and Wu Qi has also made a lot of changes to this paragraph of dialogue. Some examples are not easy for people to understand. The author When I wrote this novel, it was also a few years ago. In fact, after 2013, many people began to use mobile phone QR codes to pay.

It's just that Liu didn't think about these things at that time. He couldn't imagine that after only seven or eight years after writing this story, the world has become something he can't understand.

As a result, some assumptions in his novel are outdated, and Wu Qi has optimized them to make them more in line with the development of the times.

The animation also continued, and a more lengthy but not boring narration continued.

"Programmers, network engineers, and database administrators make up the main body of the IT Republic. This class is the reappearance of the industrial army of the 21th century in the [-]st century. However, the labor part has changed from the limbs to the brain, and the level of arduousness is still the same. unabated."

"Among the smoky sea of ​​program codes and the labyrinth of network software and hardware, they carried heavy burdens like dock porters more than 200 years ago, and worked day and night like girls, but now, these people have their own organization. , they established their own kingdom in the virtual world!"
