For example, Xu Yan, the dream before he finally woke up was the scene he was most afraid of in his subconscious - Wu Xiaoqing and the search and rescue team were arrested by the state, and then all his illegal gains were confiscated...... Of course, the root cause of all this evil is that he took the money from the company's account to invest, which eventually led to the bankruptcy of the company......

Wu Xiaoqing once watched Inception, and there was a concept in the movie that he remembered very clearly, that is, adding a non-existent concept to people's original consciousness world, and finally affecting people's thinking and decision-making.

In essence, this kind of "addiction" surgery is actually this operation.

After the two woke up, Wu Xiaoqing almost couldn't wait to test with them and try the results of the operation.

In fact, Yevgeny, who was the first to undergo surgery, had already tried many times, and in this day or so, he tried to drink more than 20 kinds of alcohol...... But no wine can be drunk. In Yevgeny's words, it's like a person who is used to drinking cold Coca-Cola, and suddenly drinks it completely out of breath, or heated Coke.

The taste seems to be the same, but it feels completely different.

The side effects of this surgery are significant, the most notable of which is a shift in interest.

To put it simply, as far as the search and rescue team summed up their understanding of human beings, one thing is certain: if Yevgeny, Xu Yan, and Wang Youquan can continue to work normally after the operation, in addition to quitting their original "addiction" through surgery, there are also other "addictions" artificially created for them.

In the final analysis, man, or, more generally, on Earth, all animals with brains are essentially governed by pleasure.

It's just that in animals, the source of this pleasure is relatively single, that is, during the estrus period, sexual stimulation can produce some - this pleasure is quite precious, and its biggest purpose is to allow animals to pass on their genes at all costs.

But when it comes to humans, the pleasure system has become extremely complex because of civilization and technology.

But one thing is for sure, no matter how complex the system as a whole, there are some essential elements that remain the same – life itself requires a normal balance of pleasure.

For most people, this pleasure system is ideal in the beginning.

There are many sources of pleasure, eating a new thing, watching a new TV, learning a new knowledge in childhood...... These can serve as a source of pleasure.

As time grows, the whole pleasure system, like the economic system, inevitably becomes homogeneous and efficient—because people need to pay more and more negative pleasures for study, work, and social and family responsibilities, and in the process, in order to ensure a normal balance of pleasure, their pleasure acquisition will soon become extremely efficient.

Smoking, drinking, gambling...... It's not that these behaviors are magical, it's that in many people's lifestyles, these behaviors tend to be the most efficient, and that's it. In fact, if these people are given a change of environment, such as joining the army, changing jobs, etc., these people's habits are easy to change.

However, the costs and risks of changing the environment in life are also increasing with age.

At Wu Xiaoqing's age, if he goes out to work normally, he will enter the factory this month, deliver food next month, and learn to cook in two days...... It doesn't matter.

The young body itself comes with a lot of pleasure income - this income is hidden, even if sometimes the work is not good and the expenses are large - life does not seem so uncomfortable with a high pleasure income.

But if it is a few years later, when Xu Yan is his age, he will begin to have a sense of crisis.

On the one hand, the pleasure system itself begins to solidify - people's preferences and behavioral habits begin to be fixed, and life begins to become long and unbearable. Xu Yan had worked in various factories before doing MLM, and he had just been in for a month or two to have some freshness, but after doing too much, he felt empty.

With Xu Yan's level of education, most of the ordinary jobs he could find were extremely boring and boring.

is not in the monitoring room to supervise the disk, chatting and farting every day, or wearing a suit and talking like a dog. These jobs are generally easy but do not earn much.

If you are unwilling to earn more, then go to the construction site, go down the assembly line, go to the construction site in the summer, and after a day, the meat on your face is like meat on the barbecue grill, bubbling with oil. The body is comfortable on the assembly line, but the brain can't stand it - long-term single labor, although the intensity is very low, but at the level of pleasure is not as good as the more complex construction site work, after a long period of work, the whole person's mental state is obviously wrong.

No matter how old you are, when Wang Youquan gets to this point and has a wife and children, it will be even more tiring. The child has to spend money on everything, and his wife has to work and make money, and the pressure is greater than his. In life, when they get home, no matter what the two of them say, the final topic will come down to money.

The whole process of life is like going from a natural prairie, gradually into the plain, into the road, and finally limited by the track of the train, which is a short distance of one or two meters. In this process, the speed of people is getting faster and faster, but the scenery on the side of the road is becoming more and more monotonous. Of course, the best situation is, of course, that the train ends up with a smooth schedule and arrives at the attraction on time.

But in reality, in most cases, a large number of people hesitate and ignorantly enter the road, and after several years of continuous walking, they always feel that they are in the wrong place - so they keep changing roads. In the end, it was like a ghost hitting a wall, spinning around in a huge space until he was exhausted and could no longer walk.

When Yevgeny reached this stage, let alone leave, as long as he could still breathe, he was very satisfied. As for the scenery - people who have seen the scenery all their lives have no expectations for the scenery itself.

On the one hand, this operation is equivalent to setting up warning signs on some dangerous road sections, and planting some flowers and plants on both sides of the ideal road to artificially create some beautiful scenery - making it not so difficult to walk.

These flowers and beautiful scenery, the choice of roads, can be selected according to the actual needs of people.

This re-election, in the view of the search and rescue team, can be temporarily named interest shift, or interest correction.

But in the eyes of the people involved in the operation, the feeling ......

"It's like being born again."

Evgeny replied as he looked at the introduction to C.

Less than 30 hours after the operation was completed, Yevgeny found out that he really did. He used to want to put in the effort to learn to code, about ten years or so. Programming is, in a way, the biggest engineering of the 21st century, information engineering. But the chaos and inertia of life ultimately made his attempt fail. Many nights, he would rather drink at home in front of the TV than "waste his life" studying.

But in less than 24 hours after the operation, he sat down to something he hadn't been able to do in the previous decade.

For two to three hours after the surgery, there will be a period of sluggish thinking. This is mainly because the brain has just undergone intense "activity". During this time, the person hardly reacts much to external stimuli.

Xu Yan and Wang Youquan are in this state now, Xu Yan is a little better, after all, his original personality is relatively active, and he also knows how to joke with Wu Xiaoqing: "You said that after our brains were developed by aliens, can we win the Nobel Prize." ”

"It has nothing to do with IQ."

"Not necessarily," Xu Yan said, "if I love learning in the future, it won't be a matter of a few years." ”

In fact, the search and rescue team had already told Xu Yan about this before, and this operation could help him only to appropriately improve his interest in learning itself - but given his current knowledge base and learning ability, if he really wants to succeed in a certain field, it will take about ten years.

But Xu Yan obviously didn't care about this time, according to his words: "I'm still young, ten years is nothing." ”

Wang Youquan looked a little worse, just closed his eyes and recuperated on the side. When Wu Xiaoqing came to tease him with playing cards, he basically didn't give any response.

After almost half an hour, Wang Youquan's condition was slightly better, and he took the initiative to call Wu Xiaoqing to try to play two cards with him.

Two people play the simplest run fast, a deck of cards to deal three copies, and then choose two copies to play. In order to achieve the purpose of the test, Wu Xiaoqing and Wang Youquan made an agreement that a card cost 20 yuan.

In the field of playing poker, Wang Youquan's card age is older than Wu Xiaoqing's. Of course, he couldn't fight back - he lost 9 cards and 180 bucks in the first game.

When Wu Xiaoqing was transferring money to Wang Youquan, he noticed that Wang Youquan's face began to look a little strange.

He had seen this expression on Yevgeny's face before, but this time, it was obvious that Wang Youquan's reaction was even more violent.

No, it's much more violent, before Wu Xiaoqing could react, Wang Youquan suddenly stretched out his right hand, and then opened the bow left and right fiercely, and slapped him twice in the face. After the fight, he began to sober up a little: "Don't transfer the money...... I'm sick right now. ”

"What's wrong?"

Wang Youquan can't say that it was because of the inexplicable appearance in his body, a strong sense of guilt - this is exactly what he strongly requested before the operation. He just said that he was feeling a little unwell.

After 20 minutes, after Wang Youquan finally got rid of this strong emotion, the first thing he did was to snatch Wu Xiaoqing's playing cards and stuff them into the trash can as soon as possible.
