Chapter 1: A Different World

Next Chapter

In a few square rooms, except for a bed, there is only one computer desk, and on the table is an old-fashioned old computer, the degree of dilapidation and the thick dust on the keyboard, which makes people wonder if this computer can still be used.

"My emperor, the early dynasty, my emperor, the early dynasty, my emperor ......"

The funny ringtone came from the phone at the bedside, but the man lying on the bed wearing only a pair of underwear didn't seem to hear it, and let the alarm ring over and over again.

About half an hour later, the man on the bed suddenly shook his body, covered his head and slowly got up.

It didn't seem like he had slept well, squinting his eyes and looking around, at first his eyes were a little confused, but when he saw the situation in the room clearly, the man suddenly became excited.

"Damn, where is this!"

Suddenly in an unfamiliar room, Zhuang Yan was startled, he was still at home at home in the last second studying the engineering drawings to be constructed tomorrow, and this second appeared in this dimly lit small room.

Before he could react, he felt another tingling in his head, and a large number of memory fragments that did not belong to him poured into his brain.

The memory is a person who is also called Zhuang Yan, and the memory fragment is really broken, Zhuang Yan is like a third party, and he has lived another Zhuang Yan's 23-year life.

"Crossed?"

Zhuang Yan couldn't help but be stunned, and the sudden influx of memory fragments made him know the fact that he had crossed over.

What surprised Zhuang Yan even more was that this world was similar to the earth, and the previous history was the same, but since the second industrial revolution, history has been like a bifurcated river, flowing in two directions with the earth.

Since the seventies of the 19th century, the world's science and technology have developed rapidly, at a speed that exceeds that of the earth in the previous life.

It only took 50 years to reach the level of science and technology of Zhuang Yan and their earth after 2000.

The era that Zhuang Yan traveled to was 1916, an era that was 100 years earlier than the previous life, but the level of science and technology was similar.

Without the First and Second World Wars, the world was moving smoothly.

In the eighties of the 19th century, China completed the revolution, ending China's semi-colonial and semi-feudal society for more than half a century. Then a socialist path was quickly found, and the country gradually stabilized.

Because it was not damaged by the Sino-French War and the First Sino-Japanese War, after finding the road to socialism, China quickly picked up science and technology on the basis of its original industry, and in less than 50 years, it became a superpower alongside the United States, Germany, Britain, France, and Japan.

However, with the rapid development of science and technology, the development of the literary and artistic circles has been a mess, and it can be said that in the past 50 years, the literary and artistic circles have not only not developed, but even the original old books are about to be lost.

People don't seem to have any other spiritual pursuits than work.

Various countries seem to be aware of this problem, and in the past ten years, they have begun to advocate the development of literature and art, but the literature and art that have been lost for 40 years do not mean that they are picked up and picked up, although they have improved in the past ten years, but the effect is also limited.

"What a boring world. ”

Zhuang Yan flipped through the memories of his predecessor and found that his predecessor's childhood had nothing but learning scientific and technological knowledge, video games were boring plot games, and people's aesthetic level was still stuck in the era when they could cry to death when they saw a terminal illness.

Not even a Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, not even a cartoon like the Seven Brothers of the Hulu.

But I have to say,The level of science and technology is there.,Whether it's animation or games.,The picture is very good.,It's the plot...... Somewhat naΓ―ve.

His predecessor was a recent graduate of the Department of Literature, who chose the major of literature in response to the call of the country, but after graduation, he found that what he had learned in four years was useless.

I've tried to write some articles, but I don't get people's appreciation at all.

Zhuang Yan found a few articles he wrote from his memory, the writing was improvised, a bit imitating the previous style, but the story was monotonous, and it tasted like chewing wax, which made people have no desire to read it at all.

This generation has lost the ability to tell stories, this is Zhuang Yan's judgment.

Now the famous people in the literary and artistic circles are all old men in their seventies and eighties, they have not been led astray by the past fifty years, and they have the previous foundation, but these people are also very few.

After the original body graduated, he was depressed for a long time, and he stayed at home for half a month, and was finally replaced by Zhuang Yan.

Zhuang Yan, who understood the current situation, let out a long sigh, the things left to him by the original body were really pitiful, except for the dilapidated computer, there was only this rented house that expired in a month.

With no job and no money, Zhuang Yan rummaged through the boxes and cabinets in the room, and finally found more than 20 yuan in change.

"Well, it looks like I'm going to have to use instant noodles to get by before I get a job. ”

The top priority is to find a job, and the first thing to solve is to earn money and solve the most basic problem of living.

But when Zhuang Yan submitted dozens of resumes on the recruitment website, he quickly received dozens of rejection messages, and none of them fell, and all the submissions were rejected.

He voted for some construction engineering, because he did this in his previous life, but people refused because his major was not right.

Well, the original body studied literature, which is really not the right match for other people's work majors.

"It's really not good, maybe it should be submitted to the corresponding major in the Department of Literature. Or, go to a small restaurant or something like a temporary job. ”

While eating instant noodles, Zhuang Yan thought bitterly.

The original body is an orphan, and he doesn't even have to rely on his parents, so it's really miserable.

On the first day of the crossing, Zhuang Yan spent two bags of instant noodles and dozens of rejection text messages, adding another day to the life of the original otaku.

After taking a shower at night, Zhuang Yan's mobile phone rang, revealing that the caller was a duck.

Duck, Zhuang Yan quickly found this person in the memory fragments.

Duck, not a real duck, his name is Yang Zhao, like Zhuang Yan, a little friend who grew up together in an orphanage, and can be said to be the only good friend of the original body.

The original body has an introverted personality and is a little withdrawn in the eyes of outsiders, so although he has been in college until he graduated from college, he has not made many friends, and his only good friend is the duck who has known him since the orphanage.

Because the duck was thin and his upper lip was slightly upturned, the friends in the orphanage gave him such a nickname at that time.

For this nickname, the duck gladly accepted.

The two went to elementary school, junior high school, and high school together, until when they went to college, Duck, like most people, chose an engineering school, and since then they have been separated from Zhuang Yan.

"Answering the phone, answering the call......"

The phone ringing interrupted Zhuang Yan's memories, and he simply answered the phone neatly, since he accepted the original body, then his relationship should also be inherited.
