[This story is entirely fictional] Li Cai, known in the underworld as the Moonlight Hacker. This is his story.
As AI becomes fully developed in the future, humanity gives rise to a new class: the useless class. Marx said that those who own no means of production and earn their living by selling their labor are the proletariat. He also said the proletariat had nothing left to lose! Then AI arrived, and the proletariat lost their jobs too, becoming the useless class, forced to survive on relief payments handed out by the bourgeoisie.
Unlike his fellow members of the useless class, who spend their days in a daze, waiting to die, Li Cai studies on his own at the public library, saves up to buy research materials, and hones his hacking skills. In 2045, aliens from the planet Tess arrive on Earth in a flying saucer, declaring that they will take the place of humanity’s God and carry out the “Final Judgment.” “To hell with your judgment!” The United Nations plans to blast the aliens and their saucer to smithereens with nuclear weapons.
But the result is that nuclear weapons can’t inflict even the slightest damage on the aliens or their saucer. Experts in infiltration technology from around the world repeatedly try to hack the alien craft, but can’t even find the door. At this moment, the Moonlight Hacker Li Cai steps forward. Using his own inventions and self-taught hacking skills, he successfully infiltrates the saucer and takes absolute control of it.
But the problem isn’t completely solved. The aliens would rather self-destruct than let Earth survive alongside them. It turns out that even these aliens, whose technology is unbelievably advanced, have their own troubles and reasons for doing what they do. Li Cai must come up with a solution that works for both sides, so that both intelligent species can survive.
