Homo sapiens.

This time TSMC's relocation plan will bring thousands of technicians there. Otherwise, relying solely on North American industrial workers and technicians, TSMC would not have to go there at all.
And now they faced another problem.
Because many technicians don't want to go to North America at all, especially those who are thoughtful.
Now that the global electronic semiconductor industry is shrinking, the optoelectronics of Homo sapiens and a large number of refurbished machines continue to enter emerging markets in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
What does North America use to feed a crowd of semiconductors?
Just relying on the North American and EU markets?These two markets are already saturated. Will North American semiconductor companies such as Intel, Apple, and Texas Instruments agree to share the market with Samsung, TSMC, MediaTek, and LG?
I am afraid that when the time comes, the local semiconductor companies in North America will take Samsung and TSMC to squeeze them out of the North American and EU markets once they see a sharp decline in performance.
Fight Homo sapiens, they cringe.
When dealing with TSMC and Samsung, these guys will not show mercy.
Therefore, many technicians with clear hearts just pack up and leave, so they will not accompany TSMC to North America as cannon fodder.
Isn't Homo sapiens company close at hand?
In the past, Homo sapiens companies were [-] times better than going to North America.
After all, North America is a capital world. Once the factory goes bankrupt, they will definitely be laid off. These technicians have spent most of their lives in semiconductors. It is a bit difficult for them to find other jobs.
What's more, under the overturned nest, there are no eggs.
Once the semiconductor industry is sluggish, they don't believe that other industries in North America will be better.
It is really unacceptable for all the technicians to go to a place where they are not familiar with, and they are also pessimistic about the future of North America.
If it was before, they might have compromised for life when they had no choice.
Now there is Homo Sapiens, a good place that will never lose their jobs, and a group of technicians will vote with their feet.
Chapter 334 Brave New World ([-])
12 month 5 day.
The plane landed slowly at Sing Tao International Airport.
Chen Yanxiu's family, who were pulling the suitcase, were given a bad start by the scorching weather of Xingdao.
His wife, Liu Meizhu, fanned the wind with a small fan, complaining: "It's so hot! It's hotter than Hsinchu summer."
"Don't complain, it's good to have a job now." Chen Yanxiu held his little daughter in one hand and pulled the suitcase in the other.
Liu Meizhu stopped her son who wanted to run away: "Isn't your company going to send people to California? North America is also good, right?"
"Having long hair but short knowledge, North America will be unemployed. Homo sapiens will not be unemployed. Why go to North America to worry about being afraid? And the white and black people in North America like to bully us yellow people the most." Chen Yanxiu said, and then I remembered being bullied by white classmates when I went to study in North America.
Looking at the people in and out of the airport waiting room, their skin color and appearance were similar to her own, Liu Meizhu also agreed with her husband's thoughts in her heart.
At this moment, the navigator at the airport was holding a tablet and saw Chen Yanxiu's family of four.
The other party was a young man. After comparing the ID photos on the tablet, he greeted with a smile: "Mr. Chen Yanxiu, Ms. Liu Meizhu? I am the immigration navigator Maung Pengcheng, and this is my employee ID card."
"Uh..." Chen Yanxiu, who couldn't make a move, nodded quickly: "Hi, I'm Chen Yanxiu, and this is my wife Liu Meizhu."
"Mr. Chen, I need to confirm your identity, please cooperate."
"can."
Maung Pengcheng took Chen Yanxiu's family to the examination room of the immigration management area.
There are two male and one female medical inspectors who specialize in the inspection of the whole family.
The identification of fingerprints, pupils, voiceprints, and genes was quickly completed. This is also the general entry process of Homo Sapiens, mainly because we are worried that some people will get through the border by mistake.
For example, find some people with similar body shape and face, and sneak into the Sapiens company after undergoing micro-plastic surgery.
After passing the inspection, Maung Pengcheng said with a smile: "Mr. Chen, now I will take you to collect exclusive items."
"There are still exclusive items?" Liu Meizhu was very surprised.
"This is a benefit that the company gives to every new employee. They are some free common items."
Although Liu Meizhu was a little disappointed to hear that it was an ordinary item, but who doesn't like free items, she happily dragged her son to follow.
And Chen Yanxiu followed behind with his little daughter in his arms.
After a while, they came to the entry application room for new employees in the entry management area.
After confirming their identities, the administrator of the application room pointed to the big screen: "You can receive a mobile phone and a smart bracelet, and children can receive a smart bracelet. These are all optional styles."
Looking at the mobile phone and smart bracelet on the big screen, Liu Meizhu hurriedly asked, "Are they all free?"
"Yes, but each person is limited to one. This is an identity machine." The administrator smiled and nodded.
Chen Yanxiu looked at his wife's bright eyes and felt a little embarrassed, so he said quickly, "I want this black one."
"No problem." After the administrator entered the data.
Soon another administrator opened the warehouse, took out a Jade 2 smartphone produced by Manila Optoelectronics, and entered Chen Yanxiu's identity information into the machine.
Chen Yanxiu, who got the phone, played with it.
And Liu Meizhu also took a blue Jade 2 mobile phone after some struggles, and chose smart bracelets for the two children.
"You two, the residence arranged by the company is at No. 204, Building 605, Kampong South District, Johor."
"Isn't it in Xingdao?" Liu Meizhu hurriedly asked.
Maung Pengcheng explained: "Johor State is also a part of Sing Tao, and your work is on the kampung side, which can be arranged nearby. Don't worry about the supporting facilities. The supporting facilities there are similar to those in the Sing Tao port area. of."
"Really?" Liu Meizhu was a little worried.
But Chen Yanxiu, who had learned about the Homo sapiens company system, was very relieved, and quickly said to his wife, "Don't worry! The facilities over there are probably similar."
"I hope so!" Liu Meizhu was a little unhappy, obviously still worried in her heart, she had never heard of Kampung City in Johor State, and thought it was a rural place.
Maung Pengcheng is also used to the confusion and hesitation of some newcomers. He didn't explain too much, but continued: "You can start the navigation system of your mobile phone, and the system wizard can guide you to Kampong City."
"Thank you." Chen Yanxiu hurriedly thanked, and then turned on the phone's navigation. The system wizard quickly listed several plans based on the location he entered.
At this time, Maung Pengcheng had already left.
Liu Meizhu, who was sitting on the bench, asked, "Honey, how do I get there? Do you want to take a taxi?"
"It doesn't seem to be necessary. There are subways in Kampung City and Xingdao Port area, so you can take the subway directly."
Hearing this, Liu Meizhu's complexion improved a lot: "What? Is there a subway? It seems that this city is quite close to Xingdao!"
"Let's go!" Chen Yanxiu was too lazy to say.
In fact, Sing Tao City has its own metropolitan area, and all cities in the entire metropolitan area have planned subways. As a part of the Sing Tao Metropolitan Area, Johor State has connected subways to some cities.
Homo sapiens company does not like to develop super-large cities, so the development of each city in the metropolitan area is relatively balanced, and there will be no situation where various supporting facilities are enriched in the core urban area.
The family walked out of the immigration management area of the airport, not far from the subway station.
Many passengers are walking towards the subway station.
Unlike ordinary subway stations, Homo sapiens' subway stations are generally located below 100 meters, so they can only go down by elevator.
in the elevator.
"Do you want to buy a ticket?"
Hearing his wife's question, Chen Yanxiu shook his head: "No need, just swipe the employee card directly, and there is no charge for children."
"It's so convenient!" Liu Meizhu looked at the employee card in her hand.
A middle-aged man wearing special prosthetics reminded with a smile: "Employee cards and employee mobile phones can be used directly in subways, buses and taxis. Cash is rarely used in the company. If they are lost, they must be replaced in time."
Chen Yanxiu glanced at the middle-aged man, smiled and nodded: "Thank you for reminding me, brother, is he also Chinese?"
The middle-aged man smiled and shook his head: "I'm from Meng State, and I learned Chinese from my former monitor."
"So eldest brother was a soldier?" Chen Yanxiu was a little surprised.
"I retired this year and now work as a physical education teacher at school."
In fact, this middle-aged man participated in the Assam War. During the war, he encountered a sudden shelling by the Indian Army and lost a leg.
This is also the helplessness in war. Even new humans are not omnipotent, and all kinds of accidents may happen.
While chatting, the elevator arrived at the underground station.
Before leaving, the middle-aged man reminded: "Here we are, don't take the wrong seat. The blue car is the local subway, and the white car is the main line cross-regional train."
"Thank you, we will pay attention." Chen Yanxiu quickly thanked.
After about 17 minutes, 7 trains stopped at the station one after another.
Under the guidance of the mobile phone system wizard, the family boarded the train to Kampung City.
This is a train with only three passenger cars. The location of the cars is very spacious, and there are special shelves for luggage and sundries.
Chen Yanxiu took a random seat, and just as he put the suitcase away, a familiar voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Chapter 335 Brave New World ([-])
"Research?"
Chen Yanxiu turned his head suddenly, took a closer look, and found a familiar figure: "Jing Cai? Are you Jing Cai? Long time no see!"
The man's face was a bit haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and he said excitedly: "We haven't seen each other for 4 years. I didn't expect to meet here. What a fate!"
After the two sat down, Chen Yanxiu pointed to his wife and introduced: "This is my wife Liu Meizhu, Meizhu, and this is my college classmate Zhao Jingcai."
"Hello sister-in-law!"
Liu Meizhu also nodded with a smile: "Hello."
Chen Yanxiu asked again in surprise: "Jing Cai, don't you work for General Electric? Why are you here?"
"Don't mention it, GE closed several factories in North America last year, and I was laid off at that time." Zhao Jingcai replied very sadly.
Chen Yanxiu was still puzzled by this, because Zhao Jingcai was engaged in the design of on-board computers. Logically speaking, even if he was laid off by General Electric, he should not have left North America.
"What happened to you in North America?"
Zhao Jingcai sighed: "Eyes, after being laid off, I suffered a sudden car accident and my cornea was damaged in the car accident. I spent all my savings in the hospital and almost went bankrupt in the end."
"Then your eyes now?" Chen Yanxiu stared at his eyes.
Zhao Jingcai explained: "I just had an operation a few days ago and implanted an artificial cornea. Now I am working in the kampong car computer design room of Nanyang Electronics."
"In terms of eye treatment, the company's technology is indeed the best in the world." Chen Yanxiu also sympathized with Zhao Jingcai very much. After all, in North America, it must be difficult to find a job if there are eye problems.
Zhao Jingcai also had lingering fears: "I have no other choice. I can only give it a go. I took my family and bought a plane ticket and went directly to Xingdao. If I continue to stay in North America, I might become a homeless person someday."
"Your choice is correct." Chen Yanxiu felt the same way.
Although he has not settled in North America for a long time, his four-year study abroad career and two years of working in Texas Instruments have given him a deeper understanding of North America.
How should I put it, the salary level of America is indeed very high, and the price level is also very low, which is an undeniable advantage.
But on the other hand, America is also a capital world, where profit is paramount. Once you go bankrupt and lose your fixed residence, you will become a vagabond, and you will be the kind of vagabond who will never stand up.
The more important and serious problem is that after losing the ability to work, it is very difficult to survive without purchasing commercial insurance or having enough savings.
Obviously, Zhao Jingcai is in such a situation. The cost of his eye treatment is very high, and he still cannot recover his eyesight. There is no Homo sapiens hospital in North America. After more than a year of treatment, he spent all the compensation paid by the insurance company. Also depleted savings.
Fortunately, Zhao Jingcai was smart. After calculating his wife's salary, he realized that it was too difficult to support himself, two elderly people, and three children.
A while ago, after careful consideration, he brought his family to sell their house and car in North America and came directly to Xingdao.
Zhao Jingcai and Chen Yanxiu talked about their experiences these days.
"The company is definitely the best place in the world in terms of humanization." After saving the rest of his life, Zhao Jingcai's sense of identification with Homo sapiens company has also been raised to a very high level.
Liu Meizhu, who had been teasing her youngest daughter, suddenly said: "That's not necessarily true, right? The subway and the airport here seem to have no barrier-free passages or blind paths."
Hearing this question, Zhao Jingcai laughed: "My sister-in-law doesn't know something. The reason why the company doesn't set up barrier-free passages and blind paths is because it is unnecessary."
"Why isn't it necessary?" Liu Meizhu was puzzled.
But Chen Yanxiu thought of something: "Could it be that the company will provide treatment for all disabled groups? Is there a problem? Not all diseases can be treated?"
"That's the great thing about the company, the company promotes a dignified life for all, so building special barrier-free passages, exclusive seats, etc., this is not what the company wants, because it will create a label. Phenomenon."
Zhao Jingcai, who incarnated Homo sapiens, continued to explain eloquently:
