Chapter 1959 isolated people
Ruji is an ordinary white-collar worker in California, America.
In Silicon Valley, he lives a leisurely life like most other IT staff, which seems very enviable.
The work is not a heavy burden, it only involves the research and development of various new products, and the relationship between colleagues is relatively easy to get along with, so it is a relatively harmonious office. His work often makes his friends envious.
After all, in America, where the unemployment rate is relatively high, it is really not easy to find such a job in Silicon Valley, where the competition is very fierce.
However, this life that looks very glamorous to outsiders still makes him feel very upset.
The reason is that he feels that this job puts a lot of psychological pressure on him.
At present, the United States is gradually emerging from the storm of the subprime mortgage crisis, but it cannot be denied that the subprime mortgage crisis, as an economic crisis that has swept most of the earth, is not so simple to eliminate, even Silicon Valley, which has always been crowded with high-tech enterprises.
The leisurely days in the past have long been gone, and now the requirements for the progress of R&D are becoming increasingly stringent.
Under such circumstances, the string in many people's hearts couldn't help but tighten, fearing that losing the job at this time would be a devastating blow to them.
However, although he was busy with work, he still stayed up late to watch Letong's new product launch conference while he was resting.
Although he is not a complete music fan, he has to admit that the products produced by Letong have almost reached the perfect peak of minimalism, just like Apple, and the products it produces do have a fascinating and crazy magic.
So he wondered if he could get some inspiration from it.
Furthermore, he is a practitioner in the IT industry at least, and he is also very concerned about what kind of impact the Lophone4 launched by Letong this year will have on the industry.
No one dares to deny Letong's influence in the field of smartphones.
However, what Ruji was somewhat unexpected was that in addition to releasing Lophone 4 this year, Lotong also released a gadget called Fingertip Spindle.
What the hell is this? A high-tech company that is obviously a consumer entertainment digital company, but actually sells toys? Is it just an international joke?
Ruji complained in his heart. Perhaps because of the unhappiness and loss in his heart, he turned off the computer and then rested.
When he woke up, he had already thrown this matter out of the sky.
The next day was another day that was as unchanged as before, and it was so heavy that it was breathless.
The third day came as scheduled again, and it was still full of suffocation. It was not until a loud shout suddenly sounded in the office that Ruji, who was lying on the computer desk and working in a busy manner, woke up from work.
Subconsciously, he raised his head and looked in the direction where the sound came. His eyes were still confused and confused, not knowing what was going on.
It's a fingertip spinner!
Although he had not finished watching Letong's press conference, he recognized it at a glance when he saw the little thing in his colleague's hand with an excited look on his face.
Unexpectedly, this thing will be launched so soon? Ruji was a little surprised. This time Letong's movements were so fast, but soon, he showed a look of sneering.
It's just a small toy, and it's so funny. Should I say I've never seen the world?
Thinking of this in his heart, Ruji refocused on the screen in front of him and wanted to continue his just work. However, his work was very unsuccessful, because the exclamations, laughter and cheers from the other side kept interrupting his thoughts.
He couldn't help but breathe a long sigh, with a clear look of dissatisfaction on his face. It seemed that he would not think about doing his job well today.
Thinking of this, he stood up and walked straight towards the place where the incident happened. He wanted to see what kind of charm the fingertip spinner had, which could make a group of people who had received elite education look like this.
Indeed, all those who can work in Silicon Valley are top students in universities.
When he got closer, he saw that there were already people around the table over there, including many colleagues who looked serious on weekdays, staring at him with an enthusiastic look on his face, and he felt that he was completely different from usual.
Isn't it just a toy? Is it really that fun?
Seeing this, Ruji really couldn't believe his eyes. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little curious. He walked over and stretched his neck to see the scene inside.
In his vision, a full metal gadget was spinning rapidly above his colleague's fingertips, carrying spirals, sometimes it seemed to be turning clockwise, but it soon seemed to be turning counterclockwise. He just tweaked it gently, but the gyro was spinning on his fingertips for more than a minute, and still didn't seem to stop at all.
Although it was just a gyro, looking at the gyro that was constantly rotating seemed to possess a mysterious magic power, constantly attracting their attention, making it difficult for them to move their gaze from above. They just stared at it without blinking, and even their breathing couldn't help but slow down, as if they were afraid of disturbing their rotation. Until their kinetic energy slowly dissipated and gradually stopped, they breathed a sigh of relief.
It is really hard to describe and it is hard to believe. Just as the fingertip spinning stopped rotating, Ruji suddenly felt unfulfilled in his heart. He wanted to watch it rotate again, and the impulse became stronger and stronger.
It’s obviously just a boring gadget, why did I suddenly have this idea? Could it be that Letong has applied some magic to attract people’s minds?
Even Ruji himself was a little confused about his own changes.
No matter how confused he was, his eyes were no longer under the command of his brain. When his colleagues pulled the top on his fingertips again at the instigation of everyone, he couldn't help but look there again, like being possessed by the demon...
