In the "Xinqiong City" in 2149, humans realize shallow connections between consciousness and the Internet through "neural webs". Society is divided into three levels according to "brain-computer adaptability": the top-level "web-weavers" monopolize computing resources and decision-making power, the middle-level "adapters" are engaged in technical services, and the bottom-level "people without internet" are restricted to manual labor in the old city. The city relies on the "Geocentric Thermal Energy Converter" for energy supply, and the core technology of the converter is exclusively controlled by the "Trauson Group". Its hidden technical flaws are causing the earth's crust to slowly become unstable.
