Peng City.
In the North District of the High-tech Park, Penguin Headquarters.
It was late at night, but many floors of the building were still brightly lit.
At a glance, most of the computer screens were lit up with the work interface. From time to time, the sound of the keyboard clicking could be heard.
At this moment, many young people were still working hard at their desks.
At this time, they would usually be asleep after staying up all night in the university.
"Is this the daily life of a big factory…"
Chen Ming looked away from the white screen and rubbed his eyes.
She glanced at the office area and vaguely felt that this scene was similar to what she had imagined many years ago.
In the bustling city, there was an inch of space that belonged to him in a high-rise building. Then, he would stay up all night in a top-notch factory for his dream…
"Tsk, it's indeed a little different from what I imagined.”
Chen Ming picked up the mug and found that he had already finished the coffee in the cup.
So, she got up and went to the coffee machine in the corner to get another cup of steaming coffee. She smelled the familiar bitter fragrance…
Chen Ming, who had returned to his work station, felt that he had recharged his battery.
As the old saying goes," A cigarette, a cup of tea, a bug for a day."
Drinking tea wasn't enough to keep him awake. Coffee was the lifeblood of modern workers.
Chen Ming brought the mug to his mouth and continued to stare at the dense text on the computer screen.
He was a copywriter for a game project team at Penguin.
Now, he was reading historical documents mixed with some classical Chinese, which made his head buzz.
To be more specific, the copywriting job required one to construct the game's worldview, write the game's plot, and establish the persona of each character in the game.
As well as writing introductions and supplementary literature on related items in the game.
In order to accomplish this, in addition to his own cultural reserves, a large amount of information was essential.
This job was not much easier than the hard work of programmers that everyone knew.
All in all, any position in the game industry was tiring, except for management positions.
Chen Ming's project team was in charge of a large-scale ancient martial arts game with a grand background and many sects.
In the past few days, he had buried his head in the vast sea of ancient classics, trying to show the ideology and culture of the martial arts background.
He had flipped through all the information on the Way of Tea and the Way of Medicine just to perfect the setting of the profession.
Sometimes, he would only complete a side quest after working for half a day.
Therefore, working overtime became the norm.
Especially since the chief planner of Chen Ming's project team was extremely strict.
Sometimes, when the game plot was finally written and submitted, the main planner would feel dissatisfied and directly call back to rewrite it.
It was equivalent to a whole day's worth of hard work being wasted, and he had to stay and work overtime until late at night.
The coffee seemed to have evaporated in his cerebral cortices, and the sleepiness that came over him became stronger.
Chen Ming looked at the time on the bottom right corner of the screen. It was almost one o'clock in the morning!
There was still a part of the plot that was not finished…
He could only force his eyes open and grab the last bit of inspiration that did not slip away. His hands quickly typed on the keyboard.
It was as if he was immersed in that ancient world again, not noticing the passage of time at all.
Finally-
After typing the last return character.
Checking and organizing the documents, packaging them and sending them to the game's main planner, and sending them emails. All of this was done in one go, and today's work was considered complete.
After saving the settings and turning off the computer, Chen Ming looked at the time again.
Yes, it was almost three in the morning.
It was past four o'clock after she went back to take a shower, even though she could postpone work until 10:30 tomorrow morning according to the rules.
However, Chen Ming didn't think that he was an iron man who would be full of energy after six hours of sleep.
She packed her things, took her work badge from the table, and went home after work…
Chen Ming dragged his feet numbly.
Although it was already very late, there were still a few people in the project team working overtime.
Some colleagues who came early in the morning could even have breakfast with them.
Don't these people need to sleep?
Chen Ming couldn't help but complain in his heart. How curly.
The internet industry was known for its volume!
Especially for a big company like Penguin, there was no such thing as the biggest company.
It couldn't be helped. It was really difficult to find a better job now.
It was a dream for many people to enter an Internet company like Penguin.
It was the winter of the internet, and many big internet companies had begun to lay off employees.
Who didn't want to keep their jobs?
Then he would roll them up, and each one was more curly than the last.
She was eager to show off in front of the leader, hoping that she would not be eliminated.
After all, even though Penguin was very rich, it at least had a high salary and good treatment. Overtime was paid, and they even provided a sumptuous dinner and taxi fare.
On the other hand, some small companies were even more disrespectful.
This was how Chen Ming had slowly made his way into the ranks of the Roll King.
The overtime was getting later by the day, and the progress was getting faster by the day. The degree of detail in the document was comparable to that of a graduation thesis.
However, if he continued to work overtime every day, his body and mind would gradually collapse.
Humans had their limits, and collapse was inevitable. It depended on whether the body collapsed first or the spirit could not hold on first.
In the same office area, Chen Ming saw a girl who was overwhelmed by work last month and secretly cried in the toilet.
He even sympathetically handed her a tissue to wipe her tears. However, after the girl finished crying, she pretended that nothing had happened and went back to her desk to continue working overtime.
Can't work under pressure? Then let them do it. There were a lot of people waiting.
At that time, Chen Ming was still sighing, as if he could see himself and even the shadow of this generation of young people.
However, later on, this girl got a rich boyfriend. The boyfriend's family had several apartments in Peng City. Just by collecting rent, he could earn tens of thousands a month.
Hence, this girl directly resigned from her job!
On the day she left, her colleagues in the project team were envious.
Chen Ming was also sighing with emotion. When would a rich woman see through his bravado and let him remove all his pretense and walk into her heart?
When would this boundless sea end…
With so many thoughts running through his mind, Chen Ming dragged his tired body to the elevator.
She pressed the button for the elevator to go down and happened to realize that her shoelaces had come off.
She bent down and tied her shoelaces.
However, the moment he stood up.
"Hiss…"
He felt his vision turn black and his ears ring.
It turned from heavy to light, like the aftershock of heavy metal reverberating in his mind.
His heart seemed to slow down a beat, and he felt as if the world was spinning in his head.
After a few seconds, his senses returned to normal, and he instantly woke up.
Chen Ming exhaled with lingering fear.
He stood firmly on the ground and watched as the elevator door opened, but he did not step in immediately.
" Phew…" Chen Ming clutched his chest, feeling a little scared.
At that moment, he thought that he had suddenly died.
