ding! Seven and a half.
The Lister Company in Martin Building is here. To get there, I had to deftly press pause at the moment the elevator ascended from the seventh floor to the eighth floor, and then grabbed the crowbar at my feet and broke through the door.
Today I am applying for a job - not every code farmer can make a living from his old business. I didn't know yet that a new "Markovich Company" would soon be opened at the Lister Company in Martin's Building. And I will be one of the employees.
My boss, Markovic, brought me to my colleague, Michael Sheen, who is lively, charming, mysterious, like love itself. When we met on the seventh floor and a half, I fell in love with her at first sight, but she was out of reach.
In fact, I don't know where the hole that exists on the seventh and a half floors came from, this is my accidental discovery. Once inside, my consciousness can enter the brain of my boss, Markovic, let me be him in just fifteen minutes, and control him by manipulating the program. And my soulless body was paralyzed by the entrance until fifteen minutes later, when consciousness returned.
After I tried it, it was amazing, better than the funniest programming of all.
My dear Michael, my flame, my light, my goddess. It was my longing to be in her—to feel her feelings, to think her thoughts, which was far more wonderful than my wildest designs. But it would be sad if this could only be done in the code I wrote for her. I wanted to be close to her anyway, and I decided to be the boss, Markovic. I want to repeatedly enter his brain, use the program to control his consciousness, use this body that does not belong to me, and have crazy love with Michael Xin.
A code farmer finally found a girlfriend in this way.
Michael Sheen also decided to keep me in Malkovich's body for so long - how could I refuse?
A skilled coder and a cunning tester have always known how to complement each other. Manipulating a living person, however, is quite different, and that means becoming another self.
In the bright coat of Markovic, the boss of a software development giant, my talents are fully revealed - everyone is talking about this genius code farmer who understands both products and technology, but they don't know this genius Code Farmer is my most outstanding work. Of course, Michael Sheen has been reduced from my goddess to my manager and wife.
When I walked through the door of Malkovich, I bravely became someone else, and someone else was always a cowardly me. We've all grown up being taught, indoctrinated, and asked to be someone, top students, stars, scientists, athletes, heroes, even criminals, except to be yourself.
You don't need a gun to kill a coder, you need a product manager.
After the product launch that day, I recalled the applause, but when I got home, it was a mess - my original body was gone!
The phone rang suddenly, from the Liszt Company on the seventh and a half floors of the Martin Building.
"Boy, your body is in our hands, you must get out of Markovic's body today! Otherwise..."
It's my former product manager Liszt! With an Irish accent from the last century, I could tell right away.
I don't have time to think about it, I just know that if I'm no longer Markovic, my career, my house, my wife will all be in vain... I want to be successful, I want to be rich, I want to be beautiful. Swimming pool, I want to get everything out of my own class of life. If I go back to my body, I will always be just a small employee who kowtows like garlic and works overtime like a meal.
If there is always one part of the body and life to lose meaning, and the other meaningless is the meaning I want most.
At every sunrise and sunset, I often feel involuntarily and inexplicably sad, and I am willing to enjoy any rape that someone else bestows on me. All I need to do is put on the mask and keep being someone else, keep being someone else, and die.
I have to make a decision.
