first executive

Bai Chui had thought about his fate, and fell from the second floor while his whole body was in a dormant state. He was afraid that every part of his body would be damaged to varying degrees. He might be sent to the robot recycling bin, or he might be disassembled. Where are the parts used for the second time... Oh no, it should be used for the third time. After all, he also disassembled many parts from other robots.

Returning to consciousness, he opened his eyes in a daze. In the bright room, the white gauze curtains were drawn, and the not-so-glare sunlight fell on him through the gauze.

He woke up.

He tried to move his hands, but he was able to move. Bai Zhui opened his palms and blocked his face, leaving a five-finger shadow on his face. The picture was converted into a video and sent to the police, and finally fell off the building with 001.

There was a white ceiling in front of him, no smell of disinfectant, not a hospital, he got up from the bed with his elbows propped up, the quilt fell from his chest, and he looked around.

There were several cabinets in the room, and various tools were placed on the cabinets. He narrowed his eyes and carefully identified the unconfiscated tools on the cabinets. They were professional tools for repairing robots, and he had seen them thousands of times under Yu Shang's men.

He lowered his head and looked at his body. Sure enough, there was no wound on his body. After checking the internal parts by himself, he unexpectedly found that he had been moved, but there was nothing extra.

The clothes on Bai Zhui's body were a set of pink pajamas, the buttons on the neckline were not buttoned properly, and the delicate collarbone was exposed. Facing this evil, Bai Zhui frowned, his Adam's apple rolled, and he couldn't tell where he was right now.

He walked to the window with bare feet and opened a corner of the curtain. This is on the second floor, which seems to be a villa. Unlike Yu Shang's villa, the villa he lives in is in a high-end community, and there are a series of villas around it .

The window was facing the gate, there were people downstairs, a black car was parked in front of the gate, a man in casual clothes was talking to another man in blue overalls.

The man in casual clothes leaned against the car, and the man in overalls turned his back to Bai Chui. However, before Bai Chui had time to look, he reflexively lowered the curtains.

Facing the casual clothes on his side, he hasn't seen him yet, but the man in overalls seems to have turned his head.

After putting down the curtains, Bai Zhui realized that he was unnecessary. The curtains were too thin, as long as he was not blind, he could see a person standing by the window, because Bai Zhui could still see the person at the door in his hazy vision.

He didn't hide anymore, he opened the curtain openly, and looked at the two downstairs.

They seemed to be talking about him, because the man who was facing the window looked up at him in a small arc, his movements were subtle but very obvious.

Because of the distance, Bai Tui couldn't hear their conversation.

After a while, the two seemed to have reached an agreement. The man in casual clothes got into the car, but it didn't start. The man in overalls turned around and walked towards the villa. He goes downstairs.

Bai Chuan's blue eyes moved.

He walked to the door, twisted the doorknob, and paused for a moment.

These people brought him here without restricting his freedom. Either they were too confident in themselves that he would not be able to escape, or they thought he would not escape. After all, how could a robot escape after being restarted and awakened.

But when he saw the man in overalls gesturing to him, he was more inclined to the first possibility.

In the living room on the first floor, the man in overalls was already waiting for him below. Bai Zhui blinked. The decoration style of this villa is completely different from Yu Shang's.

He breathed a sigh of relief, not forgetting the feeling of the hot flames climbing up his body, he walked down the stairs and stood beside the man.

The man stretched out his hand: "Sit."

Bai Zhui sat across from him, and it was only at this moment that he could see his face clearly. Bai Tui was a little surprised. He had seen this face, and many years ago he was called Gong Heng, a genius creator in the robotics industry.

Compared with his youth, his face was a little more calm between the brows. He called Bai Chui down and was not in a hurry to talk to him. He poured two cups of tea slowly and elegantly.

A cup was pushed in front of Bai Zhui: "You can try it."

Bai Chuan lowered his eyes, covering the expression in his eyes: "Thank you."

He didn't touch the cup of tea, and Gong Heng didn't mind, he said with a smile: "I've already repaired the wound on your body, is there anything else you want to say or ask?"

Bai Zhui raised his eyes, and looked straight at him with glazed eyes: "Where's Yu Shang?"

Since Gong Heng can bring him back, he can understand what he said.

"Speaking of which, thanks to your covering up a month ago, the police dug up many corpses under the trees in Yushang's backyard. He should have been sentenced to death."

The word "should" is a bit subtle.

Bai Zhui followed his words and asked, "And then?"

"He has a mental problem--" he paused, and said, "He woke up two days earlier than you."

Bai Chuan didn't know what he meant by the sentence he added later, so he remained silent.

Gong Heng drank a cup of tea, he put down the teacup, the cup hit the table and made a crisp sound, he asked, "Do you want to be a citizen?"

"..."

After a long silence, Gong Heng was not in a hurry. He threw out a clause that Bai Chuan could not refuse. Being a citizen means that he has an identity in the world, and this identity cannot be erased. It represents the freedom of life, and it also represents with social constraints.

In one sentence, he made it clear that he already knew that Bai Chuan had awakened his consciousness, and without too much nonsense, he just asked him one sentence-"Do you want to be a citizen?"

Bai Chui didn't answer right away, but instead asked him, "How do you know?"

The two sentences were wrong, but Gong Heng understood, and he still had the easy-to-talk appearance, "No robot will report its owner, and you are not the first robot to awaken self-awareness... When I repaired your body, I also found some interesting things, you fell from the second floor, there shouldn’t be only a little damage, more importantly-"

He raised his hand and tapped the forehead with his index finger: "It's here. It's a very magical fluctuation. Although I don't know the reason for the time being, I will continue to investigate."

His words were very frank, and he stated his findings these days from the beginning to the end, and every sentence he said was an understatement, but Bai Chuan felt that he was not a simple person.

Why did he come here after his body was injured?

When he asked, Gong Heng smiled lightly and pursed his lips, "Because of my special status, they handed you over to me. Only I can repair you. The remote control has been destroyed."

A word he said with confidence, the remote control is destroyed, which means that no one can control him.

But Bai Chuan also understands that many people probably already know about his self-awareness, and what he means is the meaning of representing the management of all walks of life.

"What counts as a citizen?"

Thinking about it carefully, this is his best escape route. What Bai Chuan wants to do is to prove that he exists in this world.

It took quite a few days for the identity certificate and other items to be done. Gong Heng took him to do everything. On the day he woke up, Gong Heng told him that the condition for becoming a citizen was to serve the country.

They use a policy of softness. Instead of scrapping a robot that is good for all parties, it is better to use it for their own use. This is good and bad for humans, but at least it is within their control.

In the first five years, someone will monitor their every move. The lifespan of the robot is not long, but they must ensure that the awakening realizes that the robot is a law-abiding citizen and will not do things that endanger society.

Until Bai Zhui got all the documents in his hands, Gong Heng showed him the first sincere smile, and stretched out his hand to him: "From now on, I will be a colleague, work hard."

Bai Chui looked at him for a while, and suddenly understood.

It was like a beautiful woman lifting her skirt, telling him that she was actually a man, and asking him if it was a surprise or a thrill.

He seemed to hear what Gong Heng said that day, "And you are not the first robot to awaken self-awareness", so that was what it meant.

Gong Heng already had self-awareness so many years ago, which is really amazing. Gong Heng said that he didn't have this skin at the beginning, but he made it for himself later.

Serving the country just means that the country will send tasks indirectly, but it is not busy. With status, Bai Chui stays in the library all day long, and usually goes to Gong Heng's place for rest. Get to know each other slowly.

Gong Heng likes to tinker with robots, usually he is immersed in research, while Bai Zhui is sitting on the sofa reading a book, during this period, Bai Zhui met Yu Shang once.

He could not recognize people at all, with saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth, sitting on the hospital bed all day long, smirking outside the window, and sometimes frightened and embarrassed. For some reason, his appearance reminded Bai Chuan of the story of the mental illness.

He is not at all like the person who always gives orders in front of him, he even screams when he sees Bai Zhui, Bai Zhui has only seen him once, and never visited him again.

He made money and went to find Bai Qianying, but the other party was still avoiding debts. When he met Bai Chui in the vegetable market, he was very pleasantly surprised. Bai Chui gave her some money and asked her to pay off the debt first, which was counted as her reward for taking him in during that time .

Five years later.

It was another sunny day, the front desk of the Dreaming Company was rubbing lipstick in front of the mirror, the phone ding-dong ding-dong rang, she grabbed the phone casually, there were several unread group messages on the locked frequency.

Everyone seems to be discussing about the president again. The president of their company can be called very incompetent. Thank goodness for coming to the company once a week. Most of the company's trivial matters are handled by Secretary Bai.

I heard that the president is coming today?

The front desk typed: Don't think about it, it's impossible, I haven't seen the president until now.

As soon as she sent it out, a black figure flashed in front of her eyes. She was taken aback. It would not be so nice to be touched by Secretary Bai when she was playing on her mobile phone during work hours.

The visitor ignored her and walked straight past.

The receptionist who was about to let go suddenly lifted it up again. It wasn't Secretary Bai who came, it was the president!President! !

She took a deep breath, and sent a message to the group without tears: "It's over, it's over, the president saw me playing on my phone, so I won't be fired."

There was an eerie silence in the group for three seconds.

--rest assured.

--No, the president... don't care about us.

Their dream company, the president is known for his good temper, but his secretary Bai is not. They are actually a film and television company. The company has no artists, only editors.

The boss buys the script, and every few days he will hand over a huge video for them to edit in episodes. It’s right to follow the script. Big question.

All of them have never seen the characters in the play or heard their real names in reality.

There are all kinds of rumors outside. Generally, the staff who have just started working are afraid of something haunted. After they have been in for a long time, they have gone from curiosity to numbness.

When the president comes, there must be a new drama.

Bai Chuan went to the office, and Bai Qianying sat in the office to deal with various matters. Bai Chuan put a USB flash drive on the table and asked her to go to the meeting later. He still had things to do later.

"Okay." Bai Qianying responded directly, and she handed him the document that needed Bai Zhui's signature.

Over the years, Bai Qianying has learned not to ask Bai Zhui why. Every time she asks Bai Zhui, she always says that Gong Heng needs help with something. Because of Bai Chui, she has met Gong Heng a few times. A document was pushed in front of Bai Zhui.

"There are a few companies that specialize in video. I heard that the company is going to release a new drama, and they all want to grab an exclusive broadcast."

Bai Chui replied indifferently: "You can do as you see."

"..." Bai Qianying pursed her lips and smiled without a smile.

Baizhui has started to reduce the production of dramas this year, too often it is easy to dazzle people.

He put down his things and said, "I'll go first."

"Hey--"

Bai Chui's figure disappeared at the door, and Bai Qianying put down her retaining hand expressionlessly.

After leaving the company, Bai Chuan stepped into the sunlight, and his figure gradually poured into the crowd.

Going from the shadows to the sunshine is far more than that simple on the surface, but he has never been afraid of challenges, and his life as calm as stagnant water has sapped people's enthusiasm even more. Every day of his life is very fulfilling.

And it's real.

The people around passed by his side, Bai Chuan stopped, the wind blew through his black hair, and there was a faint smile in his blue eyes.

The tall man was wearing a black windbreaker and a turtleneck sweater that covered his neck. He had a perfect figure and a handsome appearance, which attracted the attention of the little girl next to him.

A little girl with shofar braids bumped into the man's leg, fell to the ground, and looked up at the man in a daze.

Bai Zhui lowered his head, groped in his pocket, found a piece of candy, knelt down and handed it to the little girl, threatening: "Don't cry."

The little girl nodded timidly, took the candy and whispered: "Thank you brother."

After a while, her mother came, took the little girl by the hand and left, tapping her head lightly to tell her not to run around again next time.

The green light at the intersection turned on, Bai Zhui lifted his feet and walked towards the opposite side, his figure disappeared around the corner, and the little girl who was still waiting for the car felt a little regretful.

"Ahhh, why are you cowardly!"

"I didn't ask for the contact information again, what a pity, we finally met again."

"Hey, I don't know if I will have such good luck next time."

"The car is coming..."
