The Rise of Space Technology Chapter 151

  Chapter 151, the other side of the ocean that can't go back

   The other side of the ocean.

  William Lee dragged his tired body back home. As a new generation who grew up in China and finally immigrated here through studying abroad, he has always been very diligent and hardworking.

   He studied hard to get into the best university, worked hard to come here to study, and then worked hard to stay here. He was once the envy of relatives, friends, and classmates.

   He even found a Chinese wife here, has a well-paid job, and lived a pretty good life as a child.

   However, two months ago, he was laid off.

  The fruit company where he works is now experiencing unprecedented difficulties, a large number of layoffs, of which the most laid off are Asians, and he naturally became one of them.

   Lost a stable job, and the pressure of life suddenly increased.

   For this period of time, he has been going to various places to apply for a job, surrounded by Ruan, Gu Ge and other big companies and large enterprises, he has already submitted his resume.

   However, it was like a rock sinking into the sea, and there was no news, not even an invitation to an interview.

After   , he tried to submit resumes to some small companies and small businesses. He originally thought that with his ability and dazzling resume, it would not be difficult to find a job. Although the salary may be lower, he still has a job.

   Here, as long as there is a formal job, life will not be too bad.

   However, he still failed to find a job and was even ridiculed a lot.

  With the strong impact from the other side of the ocean, the technology giants such as Fruit, Auton, Myrtle, and Mevida suffered an unprecedented cold winter, and the stock market fell sharply and triggered an economic crisis.

   All these have made the companies on the other side of the ocean tighten their belts to live, and at the same time have set off a trend of anti-Asian thoughts here. When walking on the road, you may be inexplicably attacked and beaten by people.

   This is not an exception, but a regular occurrence.

   In addition, Asians have found it extremely difficult to find a job. It is better to find a job than to go to the sky. Once the hatred spreads, it will burn like wildfire.

  You can feel great pressure and hostility from all sides.

  “shit~”

   "Mass egg!"

  William Lee returned home and lay on the sofa, thinking of what happened outside today, he couldn't help but scold.

Looking for a job today, not only did I fail to find a job, but I was also robbed. I lost the hundreds of green coins I carried on my body, and even if I was robbed, I was punched a few times on my body, and my face was swollen. .

   "William, have you found a job?"

   At this time, his wife Alice came over with two children. Seeing his bruised face, he quickly asked, "You were attacked?"

   "Well, attacked by a few chimpanzees."

  William Lee nodded weakly.

   "Oh God, how could they do this."

  Alice is already an authentic and beautiful fruit person, and her ancestors have immigrated here for several generations.

   "If you can't go out now, it's best not to go out. It's very dangerous. Faces like us are easily attacked."

  William Lee picked up his child. The child was still young, only three or four years old. Alice also resigned and took care of her two children at home full-time. The pressure of life all fell on her.

"why?"

  Alice asked extremely puzzled.

   "Because the current economic situation is not good, the closure of some electronic technology companies such as Fruit, Shortcom, Myrtle, and layoffs have affected the entire economic environment, and the economic crisis has swept over."

   "All this is caused by Xinghai Technology from the other side of the ocean. They have mastered more advanced chip technology, which has had a devastating impact on these electronic technology companies."

   "There are many closed companies and many unemployed people. Everyone blames all of this on our Yanhuang people, so they are extremely hostile to us."

  William Lee shook his head as he said that.

   "What then?"

   "This month's mortgage is coming soon, and my child is about to go to kindergarten. If you are ready to go to a private kindergarten, you will need a lot of money."

   Alice became anxious when she heard it.

As a beautiful native born and raised, she is too aware of the nature of urine here. The so-called melting pot of the nation is not at all. When the conditions are good, everyone can get along well. Once in a crisis, it will be exposed immediately. The original face.

"I do not know either."

  William Lee shook his head helplessly.

He spent a long time studying and only started working at the age of 30. Although he had a good income when he was in the fruit company, he is also a self-made man when he came here, and he has always considered himself to be an elite, so it is natural to buy a house. It is a house in a wealthy area, which requires a loan.

  The car I also bought is a very good car. Fortunately, there is no loan. The life at home is based on the standard of the middle-class elite here.

   As a result, I didn't have much savings on hand all the time. Once I lost my job, I immediately panicked and ran out of money.

"I can't find a decent job at all right now, no company will want us, it's not just me, but also Paul Wang, Green Chen, Bill Liu and others, all of them are unemployed, and now they are all working for Troubled things."

   "Green Chen is now ready to go back to the other side of the ocean, and his identity has never been cancelled."

   "As for King Paul, Bill Liu, and the others, like us, they are facing enormous pressure. Bill Liu has even gone to work as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant."

  William Lee reluctantly talked about a few colleagues and friends around him.

  “Om~”

   At this moment, his phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was his college classmate Zhao Mingxuan.

   "Hey, Zhao Mingxuan~"

   "William Lee, next month will be our ten-year party, will you come?"

   "Ten Years Party?"

   "You forgot all this?"

   "It's been a bit annoying recently, I really forgot."

   "You have all immigrated to the beautiful fruit. What else do you have to worry about? They are all successful elites, unlike us who stay in the fruit and can only mix in the fruit."

   Hearing the compliments from his classmates, William Li showed a smile on his face, but he quickly put it away, thought about it and said, "How are you now?"

   "It's alright, I live a so-so life, and now I'm just a junior high-level management, with more than a hundred thousand green coins a year, I can't compare with you foreigners."

   At this time, William Lee was the proudest. Hearing the compliments from his old classmates, he felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. However, when he thought about his current situation, this sense of accomplishment suddenly disappeared.

   I couldn't help but imagine it in my mind.

  If I didn't stay here, I chose to go back.

   Maybe I should be able to live a good life now, without any pressure, and also have a certain social status.

  Here, when he has a stable job, he is indeed doing well, but he still has no social status.

   Even in the fruit company, it was always only the bottom employees.

   He has always worked hard, studied hard, worked hard, and has a great resume, but here it is of no use at all.

   If you go back, maybe it will be a completely different life.

   "I can't come to the 10-year party."

   "You can't come too?"

   "You immigrants, you can't even come here, so this meeting is meaningless."

   "No way, I've been too busy recently. Let's get together when I'm free later."

   He hung up the phone with his old classmate in a hurry, and William Lee's heart was full of regret, regretting why he didn't choose to go back in the first place.

My classmates who stayed in the fruit are now living a good life. They have a very leisurely life. The key is to have a high social status. Basically, they are already junior leaders in the unit or middle and senior management in the company. .

   "What were you talking about just now?"

  Alice looked at William Lee, and seeing that he had his eyes closed, she hurriedly asked. She didn't speak Chinese, so she couldn't understand the conversation just now.

   "My college classmates asked us to go back to the 10-year party, but I said there was no time."

  William Lee replied briefly.

  “Om~Om~”

   At this moment, his cell phone rang again.

   Picked up and looked at the video that was called by his parents in Guonei.

   "Mom and Dad~"

   When I got connected, I saw that my parents were there, so I hurriedly asked my children to come over.

   "Grandpa~Grandma~"

When the two children saw it, they immediately shouted happily and excitedly, but they could only speak their grandparents and no other Chinese, because they were brought up by Alice since they were young, so she could not speak Chinese, and neither did the two children. Won't.

   "Baby, I miss us, when are you coming back?"

  William Lee looked at the parents on the other end of the phone. Their hair was gray and they were much older. As an only child, he was never able to accompany his parents. The ones who felt the most guilt were his parents.

   "We may not be able to come back for a while."

   "I'm unemployed and now looking for a job."

   In front of his parents, William Lee had to tell the truth, and even everyone cried.

   "Why is this good guy unemployed?"

   "Why are you still hurt on your face?"

   At this moment, his parents noticed the injury on his face and asked with concern.

   "The fruit company's mobile phones and computers were all unsalable, and there were massive layoffs, so I lost my job. In fact, I've been unemployed for two months, and I haven't been able to find a job yet."

   "Now I will be attacked by people when I go out. The pressure is really too great."

   "Are you going to repay the mortgage?"

   When his parents heard it, they were silent for a long time, and then they said, "We will sell the house in the city in a few days, and then we will send you all the money."

   "Mom and Dad, you sold the house, where do you live?"

  William Lee hurriedly asked.

   "We will go to our hometown in the countryside. Anyway, the two of us are already old. With a retirement salary of several thousand yuan, we can grow and order vegetables in the countryside and raise some chickens and ducks."

   "As long as you live well, you won't come back anyway. It's useless to keep the house in this city. Sooner or later, it will be sold."

At the other end of the    video, parents are full of helplessness.

   "Mom and Dad~"

William Li couldn't help crying. For his study abroad, his parents had spent all their savings. It was not easy to survive. When he got old, he would sell his house in the city, and he could only go back to his hometown in the countryside. went to live.

   At this moment, his bowels are full of regrets. If he didn't come here, but stayed with his parents, maybe it would be a completely different scene now.

  Look at your children and their parents again. They don't understand each other's language, and they can't even talk about deep feelings. Except for a few words of grandparents, they can't talk about anything.

   The same is true for his wife, who doesn't even speak Chinese, so she can only watch from the sidelines.

   "Why are you crying, just live a good life, we will help you if we can, don't put too much pressure on it, I'm going to do some farming when I go back, maybe I can share some pressure with you."

   Looking at William Li who was crying, his parents sighed helplessly, the scenery in front of outsiders, only he knew the grief and sorrow, just pity the hearts of parents in the world!

  PS: Thank you for the support of the leader of the big boss, the boss makes a lot of money, and the boss and the beauty love~~
