About This Novel

At the beginning of "The Biography of Coder Zhang Mou", Zhang Mou became a coder after graduation. Although his qualifications were mediocre, he was reused in the prosperous age of the Internet. At the age of thirty-one, he was promoted to a supervisor, and his options were expiring, so he borrowed money to buy a house in the suburbs of Beijing, married a wife and bought a house, becoming a newly rich man. However, destiny is unpredictable. At the age of thirty-five, the industry suddenly cooled down and companies were laid off like a knife. Zhang was the first to bear the brunt. Unwilling to sink, he applied for jobs twice. One is a start-up company, although the technology is still there, but it is getting older, and the salary is halved, and 996 has become the norm; the other is an outsourcing company, which suffers from age discrimination. They work all night when the project is urgent, and they are dismissed immediately after the project is completed. When he was heavily in debt, his wife agreed to divorce and took her son to ask for the house. Zhang had nothing to live on and was burdened with a huge loan. So he became a rider and tried to survive in the gig economy. However, this path fakes its reputation for freedom and practices ruthless exploitation: the algorithm prompts orders, the unit price decreases day by day, complaints are often punished, and there is no way to appeal. Zhang traveled all day long and was overworked. His heart disease recurred. He died in a rented house at the age of thirty-nine. He was not found by the landlord until ten days ago. The theory goes like this: When you first enter a large factory, you think you are destined to do it; when you fall into despair, you realize that you are no longer an ant of the times. The mortgage loan has not been paid off, the wife has remarried; the options have become empty, and the life is over. Alas! In a certain life of Guanzhang, its prosperity is booming and its demise is sudden. When you go with the flow, you still have food and clothing; when you try to maintain your dignity, you are trampled on. Looking for a job in middle age is like walking on thin ice; the gig economy is actually a trap. Among contemporary workers, who is Zhang?

Do you still dare to copy a game released in 2009? It's already mid-2008 since you were reborn

A novel is always a novel. To be honest, I don't understand what the author of this chapter was thinking at all. What the creative protagonist thought about in the early stage is basically the structure that the protagonist built. In other words, it is equivalent to the protagonist completing more than half of the progress. Even if these people are not recruiting people again, it can still be completed. In other words, they are not irreplaceable. Is it just divided randomly? At that time, let alone the U. S. Dollar, even the RMB would not be considered a mistreatment of them.

It's cliche and bloody, the slap in the face is too harsh, and the cleaning is too stiff.

It was okay before it was put on the shelves. After it was put on the shelves, the author turned into a troll and kept doing private work. He gave up.

The AI ​​flavor is a bit strong, and there is no problem with the outline, but the chapter content is basically generated by AI, so it's a bit hard to understand.

The writing is good, and the details of the game industry are well described. It is considered a good article. It's just that in the last two chapters, you, a plagiarizing player, have made such righteous remarks, which makes people feel very disconnected. If you want to create conflict, you can continue to intensify the conflict with EA, right?
