"Boss Fang, are you still in the company?"

"Hmm." Fang Xiao was distracted, while talking with the phone between his neck, he quickly typed the code on the keyboard and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Boss!" On the other end of the phone, a very nice female voice shouted with a slight exaggeration: "I said that I will have a concert in Blue Velvet tonight, and you are still typing code, you are really at home!" Do you want Sister Xiaoyin to come over and invite you in person? ”

"Yo, there's been a lot of things lately, and I forgot about it." Fang Xiao stopped his hand, looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen, and said, "Wait for me in a while, I'll be there soon." ”

"Hurry up, without you, the No. 1 guitar accompaniment in Shenzhen, Sister Xiaoyin won't open her mouth for anything, if she doesn't sing, the boss of Blue Velvet will scold her mother, and as soon as the boss scolds her mother, we little minions will have nothing to eat."

"Don't talk nonsense, it's not too embarrassing to say it." Fang Xiao quickly added a line of comments to the back of the code, then clicked the mouse, clicked the shutdown, and said: "Shenzhen can play guitar, there are not 10,000, there are 8,000, I am an amateur who plays casually, which one is the first?" ”

"I didn't say this, it was Sister Xiaoyin who said it, she said that you play the guitar, it's very emotional, that kind of style, no one in Shenzhen can compare, do you understand the mood? Do you know the fan? Boss, there are flowers that can be folded straight! There is a word Xiao in your name, Sister Xiaoyin also has a word Xiao, you are a natural pair, a match made in heaven, I think it is better to get together, when you are lonely and sleepless, you can still roll the sheets, relieve loneliness, consume and consume hormones, do you say? ”

"Ami, it's a pity that you don't go to "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" as the host." Fang Xiao scolded with a smile, and then said, "Okay, I'll hang up, I'll be there in a while." ”

He hung up the phone, picked up the noise-canceling headphones hanging next to the computer screen, pulled out a black iPod from the drawer, plugged it in, turned it on, listened to the music, and walked out of the office.

Fang Xiao's main job is to work as a programmer in an IT company that operates Internet music services, commonly known as a code farmer, a combination of otaku and sling, and his spare time work is to be an acoustic guitarist in a bar that focuses on folk and blues style, accompaniment or solo.

"Knowing how to make music can make you live more freely."

This is a sentence that Fang Xiao often said when his father, who was a music teacher in middle school, taught him to play the guitar when he was a child, and he remembered this sentence, so since he learned it, he has never stopped practicing, although it is just an amateur practice and play, but practice makes perfect, and after more than ten years, the level is quite good, and it is very favored by those singers who sing in bars.

Fang Xiao's parents have passed away, and his girlfriend who has been talking for a few years has also been divided, plus his surname is lazy, he has to get by, and he doesn't want to be a house slave, so he took the little money he saved from being a yard farmer for four or five years and bought a hatchback car, which is convenient for commuting and going out to play.

The car was parked in the innermost part of the garage on the ground floor of the company building, Fang Xiao got out of the elevator, listened to the music, and walked towards that side casually, when he passed a corner, a silver BMW suddenly came out from the side, knocked him down, and ran over......

A few hours later, the local online media reported the accident: "Mistaking the accelerator for the brake, the novice driver caused a tragedy......

……

"In 1945, the Yalta Conference ...... The atomic bomb, the surrender of the Motherland, the end of World War II, and the cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party...... All the same, no difference. ”

"In 1946, the United Nations General Assembly was convened and the first electronic computer was born...... The civil war began...... It's pretty much the same. ”

"In 1947, the 228 incident in Taiwan ...... Battle of Menglianggu...... CIA was founded...... GATT ......"

"Fang Xiao, what are you looking at?"

Fang Xiao put down the mouse, looked back at his roommate Liu Chengjie, who was holding the basin and was about to take a bath, and said, "Bored, just take a look." ”

"Yo, yes, I can study modern Chinese history." Liu Chengjie leaned in front of the computer screen, looked at the text on it, then stood up straight and asked, "How do you feel now?" Still uncomfortable, isn't it? ”

"It's okay already, thank you this time."

"Thank you, thank you, they're all brothers." Liu Chengjie raised his chin and said: "Don't drink anymore in the future, look at it, you are tall and big, you are not ugly, and when you have money after graduation, what kind of woman can't soak it!" Don't break down your body, your body is the capital of pickling girls. ”

"Not anymore." Fang Xiao smiled slightly embarrassedly and said, "You go take a bath, be careful of catching a cold, don't take me out of the hospital today, I'll send you to the hospital tomorrow." ”

Liu Chengjie saw that his face was normal, his eyes were clear, and he should be really fine, so he also smiled, and then went into the bathroom in the dormitory, and then there was the sound of rushing water.

Fang Xiao continued to look at the entries on the computer.

"1948...... Marshall Plan...... Chiang Kai-shek was inaugurated as the first president of the Republic of China, the Liaoshen Campaign, the Huaihai Campaign...... It seems normal as well. ”

"1949...... In the Battle of Pingjin, Li Zongren came to power...... 1st Emmy Awards...... Soviet Experiment with Atomic Bomb ...... 11th Founding Ceremony...... It's pretty much the same as before...... Wait, no, that's not right here! ”

Fang Xiao stared at the screen and dragged a long blue bar on the entry with his mouse.

"On October 14, 1949, Guangzhou was liberated, the Fourth Field Army moved south, crossed the Luohu Bridge on October 17, the British surrendered, and Hong Kong was liberated."

No wonder, no wonder!

I said how come this is obviously Hong Kong, but it is completely different from the Hong Kong in my previous life - there is a special economic zone, there is no one country, two systems, there is a secretary of the municipal party committee, there is no chief executive, there is Cantonese, there is no traditional Chinese characters......

I said why this is obviously 2014, but the world is completely different from the memory of my previous life - there are computers, there is no Microsoft, there are mobile phones, there is no Apple, there is the Internet, there is no Google, there are Hong Kong movies, there is no Andy Lau, there is pop music, there is no Jacky Cheung......

It turns out that something is wrong here!

The world is made up of all kinds of small probability events, a small butterfly flapping its wings, all causing a storm, a city has changed dramatically, and the whole world is naturally unrecognizable.

A twitch may make a man and a woman pass by, a piece of news may make a couple go to bed a few seconds later, a story, or a child's ambition......

Therefore, on October 17, 1949, for an unknown reason, the earth's space-time was like a single cell, splitting into two at once, and then each changed and developed, forming its own different worlds, and after Fang Xiao's death, his soul also traveled from one time and space to another for an unknown reason.

The development of the world, there are random variables, there are also fixed laws, a single person will change, but the overall development trend will not change, especially technology, there is no Steve Jobs, but there will be a personal computer, there is no Bill Gates, but there will be a system, there is no Yang Zhiyuan, but there will be a portal, there is no Jack Ma, but there will be a shopping website......

Therefore, in this new world, Fang Xiao also has a computer available, a mobile phone to play, and the Internet to access, and everything in material matter is not much different from his previous life.

However, there are rules to follow in science and technology, but there are never rules in artistic creation, so in this world, there is pop music, but there is no Luo Dayou, so there will be no "Childhood", there will be Hong Kong movies, but there will be no Tsui Hark, so there will be no "Wong Fei Hung", there will be Taiwanese movies, but without Ang Lee, there will be no "Eating Men and Women......

For code farmers, there is not much difference between this and the previous life, it is a very competitive world, not only that, if you want to repeat the old business, you have to spend time to learn and study the programming rules of this new world, but Fang Xiao is not a purebred code farmer, he also has a deputy job - for a guy who has played the guitar for more than ten years and has hundreds of tunes in his head, this is a world full of gold and silver!

"There's a beautiful new world, and it's waiting for me in the distance, where there are innocent children, and girls' dimples......"

Fang Xiao was softly humming Wu Bai's "Brave New World" while tapping on the keyboard, searching for any thought that popped into his head, and at this moment, the mobile phone next to the monitor buzzed and vibrate, and he picked it up and looked at it, and the caller ID flashed with the word "Dad".

After hesitating for a few seconds, Fang Xiao sighed and pressed the answer button.

It is already a fact that cannot be changed, both come and be safe, what should be enjoyed, to enjoy, what should be borne must also be borne, and escape is not the way.

Even though he thought so, after the phone was connected, Fang Xiao still didn't shout out that word, just a vague "hey".

"Xiaoxiao, have you eaten dinner?"

"Not yet."

"It's almost six o'clock, it's time to go to dinner at this point, you are young now, you should pay attention to your body and form good living habits, otherwise your stomach will be damaged in the future, and you will feel better......"

The low voice on the other end of the phone, the chattering words, made Fang Xiao's heart swell with complex and indescribable sadness, his father in his previous life was also so wordy, but at that time, how could he really experience the family affection and care?

People, that is, cheap, only know to cherish and regret when they lose.

"Xiaoxiao, I asked you to buy new clothes, did you buy them?"

Fang Xiao restrained his thoughts and said casually: "I bought it." ”

"What did you buy? How much did it cost? Is there enough money? ”

"It's a suit." Fang Xiao was perfunctory, he remembered that there was a card notification text message on his phone, so he added: "More than 3,000." ”

"Didn't I call you 5000? How to spend 3000, Sacred Heart is a high-end school, you have to dress decently, in order to leave a good impression, you don't want to save, there is still money at home, if it is not enough, I will give you a little more. ”

"Enough is enough." Fang Xiao's parents died early in his previous life, he was used to a self-reliant life, and he took away the body of his son, and then gnawed at the old man, he couldn't say it, he shirked and said: "I still have money, you don't have to worry." ”

"Since I've bought it, forget it, the new clothes for 3,000 yuan should be okay. You remember, get your hair straight, make a good impression, when interviewing, don't be nervous, Zheng Yonglin, the vice principal of Sacred Heart Middle School, is my former colleague, I called him just now, he promised to take care of you, as long as you play normally, nothing goes wrong, there is a great chance of being hired, you go to Southern Normal University, it is also a very good school, no worse than the University of Hong Kong, or a serious 800 normal school, professional counterpart, has an advantage. ”

"Okay."

"The last time I told you about Principal Zheng's phone number, did you write it down? Go over early tomorrow morning, visit his office, ask about the situation, don't make trouble again! Now in this world, it is very realistic, it is not easy to find a good job, you will graduate soon, the social environment is different from the school, you have to learn to deal with people, you can't think about having ability, you can't just have ability, you have to be a ......"

Fang Xiao didn't say a word, just listened quietly.

"In short, you don't have a burden, play hard, show what you usually learn, just do it, even if you don't succeed this time, it doesn't matter, just continue to look for it, there is no shortage of money at home, I am now back to school to take classes, thousands of dollars a month, enough to spend, you don't have psychological pressure, there are still two months before graduation, look for it slowly, don't worry, ah?"

"Hmm."

Hanging up the phone, Fang Xiao held the phone with scratches on the screen in his hand, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Pity the hearts of parents in the world, this father, who did not know that he was worried about his worried son, because of the loss of love, and decadence for several weeks, and last night, after a big drunkenness, he crossed and took away.

The fortunate thing in the misfortune is that their parents have passed away in their previous lives, otherwise, they know what they will be sad after the car accident......

After being stunned for a while, Fang Xiao put down his mobile phone, used the monitor screen as a mirror, looked at the unfamiliar, slightly green and pale face, and said to himself: "Fang Xiao, Fang Xiao, since you are still called by this name after you have crossed over, it can be regarded as fate, since God has given you a chance to live again, you must cherish it." ”
