Location: Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.

The city of Jakarta, as the capital of Indonesia, is undoubtedly a city with a strong contrast between tradition and modernity, rich and poor, just like Rio in Brazil and New Delhi in India. From the clean, high-tech districts to the noisy and crowded villages, from the well-dressed upper class to the barefoot and filthy poor, from the delicious food on the table to the garbage discarded on the ground, heaven and hell are close at hand, and the gap between people is very different.

Here, the preponderance of wealth and power reaches a pinnacle, which can easily determine one's status and can easily dictate one's future destiny.

As a "deep pocket", this year's most famous technology multinational company "hardcoreinc" company (hardcoreinc) is located in Jakarta Asian headquarters, the Jakarta government has given extremely preferential tax policies and convenience, and the Jakarta government will go all out to arrange the requirements of hardcore technology companies. Especially after the hardcore technology company landed one of the production and assembly plants in Jakarta, providing more than 6,000 jobs in Jakarta, the government was even more enthusiastic.

Much of that enthusiasm, of course, comes from political donations to high-level people.

The reason why Lu Yuan likes Indonesia, India, and Africa so much is that wealth and power can do things beyond the legal sense in these countries, he clearly understands that as long as there is power, then it is not difficult to kill people in such countries, and the high-level government and pirates collude with each other, and even on independent islands far from the center of the country, there are many migrant workers from the Philippines, Africa, Myanmar and other places, who are oppressed to become slaves, doing hard work day and night, I don't get a penny of income. Compared to these slave owners, Ivy, who was previously engaged in piracy, is really very "kind".

This is also a chaotic world that white-collar and gold-collar workers sitting in a clean and bright office in a modern city, drinking tea and drinking coffee, cannot imagine.

Aiwandi didn't think so much, he got up before dawn, cleaned up and took a cold shower, carefully put on this valuable suit, straightened his tie in front of the mirror, and nodded with satisfaction.

As he went downstairs, he heard his mother calling out to him, "Evandi, do you want breakfast?" ”

"Didn't I say that? I won't have to eat breakfast here in the future. ”

Aiwandi said impatiently, and then a proud look appeared on his face: "I've been promoted, look at it, it won't be long before I can let you move out of here and find a new house to live in." ”

"Really, brother, is what you said true?"

Avandi's younger sister, only seven years old, barefoot, wearing the same clothes as her sister when she was a child, heard Avandi's words, and immediately looked back at him excitedly.

"Of course, when did I tell a lie."

Avandi glared at his sister, dissatisfied that she was suspicious of what she was saying.

A driver in Jakarta earns about 4 million rupiahs a month, which is equivalent to about US$300, but the average salary of a taxi driver in the city center is only 3 million rupiah, and the average salary of a domestic servant is only about US$100 a month. The poor living in the slums earn less than $30 a month.

But this low income does not mean that the price level in Jakarta is low.

Awandi had long wanted to rent an apartment and let his family move in, which was still a dream in college, but it was just a dream. That kind of amazing apartment rent makes every college student feel scared.

The monthly rent of a three-bedroom house is as high as $1,300 to $1,700 per month, not including property management fees! Even if you graduate from college and are surprisingly lucky enough to get into a large local company, your monthly salary is twice that of a taxi driver, and it is only $600, which is far from enough to pay the rent for your apartment.

It's really scary.

For many of his college classmates, this is basically a dream, maybe after working for 20 years, they can buy a house in the suburbs, but if they want to buy a house in the city center, most people do not have such wishful thinking at all. That's what the superior people should think about, not the inferior poor like them. What's more, this kind of ordinary community college, after graduation, the biggest possibility is to enter the factory as an ordinary worker, and you can only be an ordinary worker for the rest of your life, and it is the greatest pleasure to be able to buy mangoes once every six months to eat.

Damn, my country is rich in mangoes, but a kilogram of mangoes costs 100,000 rupees, a total of 7 US dollars, and most people can't afford to eat them. Even if it is an ordinary fruit, the price is not much different.

When Awandi was in college, he was also angry about it, but after entering the society, in just half a year, all his unwillingness and anger subsided, and he even felt hopeless.

In this society, in this country, poverty is the biggest original sin, no matter how unwilling he is, he has nothing to do with the upper class, and the numb bottom people have long been accustomed to it and take it for granted.

After despair, Avandi suddenly realized that there was only one way to change this desperate fate, and that was knowledge!

With knowledge, he can change this terrible fate.

Every day and night, Evandi began to learn programming skills like crazy, he worked hard during the day to make money, and at night he used the money he earned to buy second-hand books to study, and in practice he tried to intern in some dark Internet cafes, and finally he bought a very shabby laptop at a very low price, and he studied like crazy.

He persevered for a year and a half like this, and it also brought him rich rewards.

A few months ago, when he first attended a local job fair for a hardcore tech company, he was one of only 10 successful candidates out of more than 3,000 applicants.

Avandi was ecstatic, excited to the point of almost suffocation, and he could hardly believe that he had succeeded.

However, after Evandi was extremely excited, it still did not swell to the extent.

When he joined the hard-core technology company, he learned that the hard-core technology company recruited local employees only to cope with the government's foreign enterprise policy. Most of the real core employees of hard-core technology companies come from top talents from Europe, America, China, Japan, South Korea and other countries, and he can only come in thanks to the government's policy that foreign companies must have locals in recruitment.

This can be seen from the fact that he only has a junior software engineer rank of lv1.

However, even at this level, his salary reached $1,100 after taxes, and he really turned over.

Avandi is a person who is never satisfied, and when his whole family is shocked and unbelievable by this salary, he still does not give up studying, on the contrary, with better learning conditions, he spends all his time studying except for work.

There are no other social activities, invitations from colleagues are never went, no girlfriends are found, only studies. His attitude towards learning has even earned him the title of "Learning Maniac Avandi". The other nine colleagues who came in with him also began to look down on his behavior, and often ridiculed and did not cooperate with the work, which was the best way to deal with Avandi.

Pity......

Avandi wanted to laugh, and after months of silent patience, it paid off.

Yesterday, the company issued a direct personnel order, and Awandi Abubakar was transferred to the suburban company's headquarters, and no longer worked in the external office in the city center.

Level up to lv2.

Although he did not reach the level of a mid-level software engineer, according to his frequent study object, a David from the United States, he recommended him because he did not have the lazy habits of ordinary locals, and his ideas were very spiritual, and he should go to the suburban company headquarters to work.
