Chapter 2240: The Fading Divide (Part 2)

"What exactly are you? Or, why are you disguised as AI?"
Li Chu quietly stared at the light blue light flashing in front of him. The light flashed slowly in a transparent cover.
"Sorry, I can't answer this question."
This AI named Kou Kou made Li Chu feel a little surprised. It was copied from its body. Li Chu parsed Ko Kou's source code. The composition of this source code is not 0 and 1, but A string of symbols similar to garbled characters, but these symbols do not refer to anything, this is the conclusion Li Chu has come to now.
At first, Li Chu thought it was another mechanical language, but according to his past knowledge and research on mechanical language, Li Chu judged that these strange characters were not source codes or mechanical languages. exists to mislead.
"You are very smart Li Chu."
Kou Kou laughed, and Li Chu said with a grim expression.
"You don't need to guess what I am. The only thing I can tell you is that I am not your enemy. Go to that kangaroo country and you will know everything."
Li Chu stared at Kou Kou suspiciously, and he laughed.
"Why don't you tell us first? Whatever it is, at least you have to tell us something, don't you mean you are not our enemy?"
"Even if you know about some things, you can't do anything about them. The changes of things have their own laws of development."
Kou Kou laughed, and Li Chu continued.
"No matter what kind of law, what is the root cause? You should know it, our root cause."
Li Chu is very excited at this moment. They have always been very strange in the past. Their bodies have become this way, and they are no longer human. But how did they become like this? They have never found the answer to the root problem. .
It's just that Kou Kou didn't speak anymore. Li Chu looked at the string of characters and numbers on the light and shadow screen. These things are meaningless. Now that Kou Kou has said it clearly, it is enough to prove that Li Chu's conjecture is correct. .
Li Chu walked to the door of the laboratory and turned off the lights in the laboratory. Now this is the only way to do it. After a while, Li Chu came to another laboratory, and Noah and Noah were working together. Next to the mecha driven by the kid, the structure of the mecha has been basically figured out. The only thing that has not been figured out is how to use the mind to control the mecha, and the part of the mecha that receives the mind signal is still a mystery.
Gu Yi and Werther are also discussing, and the two have made plans to wait for Gene to leave directly with Gene, and then they both go to the country of kangaroos to investigate some things, because Jamie said in his mouth Stuff is so incredible.
"How's the situation?"
Li Chu asked, and Gu Yi shook his head.
"It doesn't seem to be an optical sensing signal, but another kind of signal reception method that we don't know about. I have done many kinds of tests, and electrochemical tests have also been done, and there is no response at all."
Werther was still looking at the mecha that had been carefully dismantled, and Noah laughed excitedly.
"If I can, I really want to take a trip. There should be a lot of good things in that country. Unfortunately, I still have a lot of work at hand. Why don't I leave the 10 subjects to Guoguo?"
"Stop joking, kid."
Li Chu said dissatisfiedly, and Noah laughed.
"Aren't you busy these days Noah?"
Noah opened the mouth and said, Noah waved his hand helplessly.
"I see, there are still several mechanical and biochemical transformation operations today. I have to collect more specific values ​​in person in the past."
Noah got up and left.
11 am
On the ring street on the middle floor, there are many unfamiliar faces. Many of them are dressed in ordinary clothes, and some of the clothes are still real. For this ring street with food, drink and entertainment, there is no longer the bustling it used to be. Instead, it was deserted.
Many middle-level companies have already brought people to the bottom. Now the bottom-level is overcrowded. After all, many companies want to make money. Now the bottom-level has a large number of orders, which can be soft-handed. Many middle-level people go to the bottom to work. .
It's just that the arrival of these people has made a lot of food shops improve. Recently, many people from the bottom floor will come directly by subway and eat in the middle floor when it is time to eat.
Although many restaurants in the middle level are a bit more expensive than the bottom level, it is not too high, and the food is better than the bottom level. Many food shops in the area close to the bottom level have already started doing business for the bottom level people.
The bottom floor is overcrowded now. If you don’t buy lunch in advance before mealtime, you can only eat liquid food. Many people have made money recently, but the sales of liquid food have dropped a lot. Many people eat ordinary food. .
Most of the food shops in the middle class have seized this opportunity and launched a large number of lunch sets for the bottom-level people, with a maximum of 5 yuan per person, which is now affordable for many low-level people who have earned money, and the weight is full And delicious.
After a while, the ring-shaped street in the middle layer became lively. Many people would go shopping after eating, and visit some shops that they didn't go to on weekdays. This kind of situation is very difficult for many people who are still in the middle layer. It is said that it is very good, the economy has really started to return, although it is slow, but for most individual businesses, it is excellent.
There are even some people at the bottom who will buy light and shadow clothing, which most of the middle-level complaining people didn't expect at first.
Near 12 o'clock, the circular street resumed its former prosperity, and it was even better than usual. In the past, many people from some companies near the circular street would come to this street for lunch, with no more than 10 people per capita. Block, the traffic is now five times more than before.
Some workers who just came out of the construction site also walked into some beautiful shops without hesitation. Many food shops were full of people. In the past, many people at the bottom would never go to the middle to consume .
Now the per capita wage of workers at the bottom has risen to more than 2,000, and the most daily supply of liquid food at the bottom is still. Therefore, some workers who finally earn money want to try better food, so they naturally come to the middle.
It's just that the food supply has been a little tight recently. Many businesses will send people to the food exchange to guard them. As long as there are ingredients out of the warehouse, they will buy them and transport them directly through the underground logistics pipeline to a nearby storage point.
"what on earth is it?"
Chen Qiao muttered, and his grandson Chen Kai laughed.
"Grandpa, these poor ghosts will come to the ring street."
Chen Qiao smiled helplessly, and the businessmen next to him also laughed. In their opinion, many people at the bottom are simply reluctant to buy from the middle, but they did not expect that the place has suddenly become lively in the past few days.
"Just temporarily."
A businessman said, Chen Qiao nodded. He basically lives in the middle floor now. After all, he has to pay attention to the situation on the bottom floor. Later, Chen Qiao will have to go to the bottom floor to talk to Locke Phoebus about the reconstruction of the two areas. Even if the bottom-level investment has been handed over to the three big families, they can still get a share of the pie.
Zou Yun is also among them. This is the highest floor of the best restaurant in Ring Street, overlooking the panoramic view of Ring Street.
"Times have changed."
Chen Qiao said with emotion, and his grandson Chen Kai laughed.
"Grandpa, no matter how it changes, it's not up to us to decide."
Zou Yun glanced at this arrogant boy, but he still doesn't have a long memory. Although he has calmed down a bit now, he still can't change it.
"Don't talk nonsense about Xiao Kai."
Chen Qiao reminded him. He glanced at the people of the Chen Qiao Group around him. They were still the same as their grandsons. these big capitals.
Recently, due to various problems, Chen Qiao Group has lost more than 500 million yuan. Although 500 million yuan is nothing to them, Chen Qiao has a premonition that the worst era is coming. Their only The only choice is to obey the orders of the Executive Department, which is the last thing most businessmen want to see.
"enough!"
Listening to a group of people still discussing the problems of these lower-level people, Chen Qiao's face showed anger, and soon after Chen Kai had eaten, he took his girlfriend away and planned to go shopping. Several bodyguards followed.
"Xiao Kai, let me remind you one last thing, restrain yourself."
Chen Kai laughed.
"understood."
After a while, it was approaching 1:00, and only Chen Qiao and Zou Yun were left in the high-rise lounge of the restaurant.
"I've never seen this scene before."
Zou Yun said, Chen Qiao nodded.
"We've been friends since the days of the first generation of managers, remember? Those days."
Zou Yun laughed.
"Indeed, in the blink of an eye, time passed too fast, we misjudged the situation, and there should be no way to restore it now."
Chen Qiao nodded in agreement. Both of them felt the same thing. The urban stratum was falling apart, and it was becoming more and more difficult for capital to control the market.
In the past, their big families had absolute control over the market, and it was absolutely impossible to allow cities to have economic concentration at the bottom. Even if there was, it was just the normal operation of their capital.
"I don't think Mr. Locke will accede to our request."
"Yeah, I think so too. The previous methods are not working anymore, and many MPs are now beginning to gradually distance themselves from us."
At this time a news popped up.
"It's always like this, why should I agree to their unreasonable demands? If there are a large number of chain stores around the cinema, how will the shops on the ground floor survive? It doesn't matter if they want to protest and complain to me, if they don't give up building the cinema If the idea of ​​related industries is concerned, this proposal will be shelved indefinitely. Anyway, you can watch it on the Internet, and there is no difference without a movie theater.

Le Xiao once again made amazing remarks. A large number of reporters were responding to the protests submitted by several major film companies to Congress this morning, saying that Le Xiao had arrogantly blocked the motion and wanted to impeach her.
"Really."
Zou Yun sighed, and Chen Qiao said after watching it for a while.
"This is their last fight."
"Ah? It's necessary to ask this kind of question? Look over there, which of those stores do you choose?"
Le Xiao pointed at some shops across the street, the most popular one was a chain store, and many of the shops next to it were very few people.
"What kind of is the principle of fair competition? Where is the fairness? There is only one street. If I were rich, I would also open a chain store that has achieved very good results and directly monopolize the business on the street. Why are you asking such strange questions? You guys Look at how many stores closed down because of poor management? Why did they close down? Look at how many stores under capital operation are near these closed stores? Kill these stores with low prices and high quality, and then there is only one, the price It's up to them to decide. Do you have problems with your eyes or your brain? Whoever asks such low-level questions will simply stop being a reporter in the future and go to a stall instead. As long as it is a person with eyes and brains What do you know, haven't you been to school? Didn't you graduate from primary school?"
Zou Yun and Chen Qiao looked at Le Xiao on the screen and felt helpless. Her words were irrefutable. Then he saw Le Xiaozhi grabbed the microphone and randomly pulled a lot of people out on the street to ask questions. The problem with this monopoly model of capital.
Many passers-by answered eloquently, and they also made inferences about a lot of things they had seen and heard before.
"Did you see it? You ask me such a simple question repeatedly? You are deliberately trying to find fault, right? Which media agency is it from?"
Le Xiao asked directly and rudely, and many reporters who had just asked were panicked at this time.
"Anyway, let's try it out, you go with me."
Chen Qiao turned off the light and shadow screen, and now he really felt the power of this secretary. At first, many of their businessmen felt that she was like an idiot, but now they regret it.
2pm
Le Xiaohuo came to the local public security management, which is located in the middle floor. She came here today to see some plans for the construction of the cinema, but after taking a look, many things were still the same, and they wanted to change the law. Let this proposal start as soon as possible, Le Xiao trained them directly, and then left.
Le Xiao has only one idea. She doesn't care what these businessmen think or how disgusting the media makes her. As long as they don't give up the idea of ​​building a cinema supporting entertainment and catering facilities, the proposal will not start.
Once they do this, they will definitely intensify their efforts, because the underlying business has no competitiveness in the face of these big capital businesses. Once they open this mouth, the scene of the store that Le Xiao has seen before will be squeezed and closed down again. It emerges that the thriving underlying economy will be severely impacted.
