Rebirth 1999: Opening the Age of Black Technology

v1 Chapter 266: drastic measures

Facing the question from his subordinate Ma Tao, Wells felt a little embarrassed.

In all fairness, Ma Tao's performance is very good, he is definitely the main force in the development of WindowsXP system.

But in the current environment, the atmosphere of the entire company is very guarded against the Chinese, especially Ma Tao, a Chinese from the mainland of Xia.

And for Ma Tao's personal situation, Microsoft has also conducted a special investigation.

Ma Tao's father had experience in the army, which made Microsoft even more defensive against Ma Tao.

At this time, it has been circulated within Microsoft that the reason why the underlying code system of Windows 98 goes out is what these Chinese people do.

The entire company is quite cautious about Chinese people, and various methods have been taken to transfer Chinese people out of key positions in various systems of the company.

Wells said: "You have performed well. This is a unified arrangement of the company. I hope you can accept it."

This is the supervisor's attitude towards the Chinese.

If it was a white man standing across from Wells, that white man would have gone to the labor union.

But the Chinese are different. The Chinese have a humble status in American society. Even if they are high-achieving students, it is quite good to find a satisfactory job.

"But!" Ma Tao wanted to ask something, but was interrupted directly by Wales.

"Please obey orders."

Ma Tao had no choice but to pack up and leave his workstation.

At this time, the team leader did not allow Ma Tao to take away anything related to the project.

Including Ma Tao's personal laptop and USB flash drive.

At this time, Ma Tao suddenly realized why he was transferred from his post at this critical time?

Not because of my own mistakes, but because of my Chinese heritage.

Immediately very helpless, he was angry and angry, but there was nothing he could do.

That night, Ma Tao and his classmate Wu Bo, a Chinese who also works in key departments of Microsoft, drank together.

Unexpectedly, Wu Bo was also transferred from his current position and went to an unimportant small department. Of course, his salary was greatly reduced.

After learning about this situation, Ma Tao couldn't help but start to complain: "We have been at Microsoft for so many years, and these Americans are still guarding me! In my department, Oriental people can be in it, even Indians can be in it, that is I can't! Why can't we Chinese?!"

Wu Bo took a sip of white wine, and he felt very uncomfortable, "Okay, Ma Tao, don't say that. They are obviously trying to guard us! Even if we put in 10 times our efforts and make more contributions, The reward is less than one-tenth of that of Indians and Orientals, let alone compared to whites.”

Wu Bo took another sip of wine and said, "Just be patient! Although the position has changed and the salary has become lower, at least our jobs are still there. In a few years, we can all get green cards. For the sake of our family and children, be patient. Forbearance!"

Speaking of children, Ma Tao was even more angry.

The Chinese have their own small circles in the United States, and it is difficult for them to integrate into the mainstream social circles in the United States, and it is even more impossible for them to combine with white people.

Therefore, Ma Tao's wife is also from Xia Guo. Although she has a high degree of education, her situation is not good, and she currently does not have a very stable job.

The two have a ten-year-old child.

A few days ago, Ma Tao's children clashed with a black child at school.

As a result, his child was bruised and bruised by several black classmates.

Ma Tao and his wife went to the school to find a theory. The school just criticized the black classmates, and the matter was over.

Ma Tao is an intellectual and understands the law.

According to the school's rules, if there is such a serious injury accident, the black classmates will at least stay at the school to check.

But nothing happened, and even some Chinese parents in the school told Ma Tao in private, let Ma Tao endure this matter.

This is the situation of the Chinese in American society.

Ma Tao didn't know whether he was crying or laughing. He drank a glass of wine very depressed, "Brother Bo, what do you think we came to the United States for?"

"You're right, the pay here is really high, and working here for a month is comparable to working in China for a few years!"

"But do we really have a sense of belonging here? No matter how hard we work and how serious we are, we will all be regarded as outsiders! We can't fit in here!"

"Brother Po, I kind of want to go back."

Wu Bo hurriedly put down the wine glass, took Ma Tao's hand and said, "Tao, don't think like that! We can get the green card soon. If you leave now, it will be a waste!"

"Bighouse! Freshhair! Freedom! Aren't these what we were after in the first place? If we go back to the country, there will be nothing left!"

Ma Tao smiled bitterly. The fresh air and freedom of the big house can indeed be seen in the United States.

But Ma Tao felt from the bottom of his heart today that none of this belongs to him.

During this time, Ma Tao also contacted his classmates in China.

At present, the domestic economy and society are developing very rapidly, and everywhere is full of vitality.

Although those classmates are not well paid, when they talk about their work in a national laboratory or an enterprise, they all have a strong sense of pride and belonging.

This is the real value of life!

Ma Tao took Wu Bo's hand away and said, "Brother Bo, I'll think about it again, but I really want to go back to China..."

The two brothers had a long talk and did not go back until late at night.

When Ma Tao returned home, he looked at his wife and children who were already asleep, and this gave him a warm feeling.

Ma Tao turned on the computer and paid attention to the deepin Windows 98 system that has been making a lot of noise recently.

Ma Tao was originally one of the members of the WindowsXP project team and had a very good understanding of the system.

When he downloaded and analyzed this pirated system, he was extremely shocked.

Which genius is it? It turned out that the pirated system was made like this.

And judging from the domain name of the website, this is definitely done by the people of Xia.

At this moment, Ma Tao suddenly had some feelings.

The Xia Kingdom has been poor and weak for hundreds of years, since the establishment of the New Xia Kingdom, especially since the reform and opening up.

Countless scientific researchers in Xia Guo~lightnovelpub.net~ have devoted their whole lives to the prosperity of the country and the rebirth of the nation.

During this time, the carbon crystal hard disk is the best example.

Xia Guo's scientific researchers have made great efforts to develop a very powerful carbon crystal hard drive.

However, it was attacked, framed, or even banned by the United States using various improper means.

As a native of Xia, Ma Tao suddenly admired the indomitable spirit of his domestic colleagues, but felt very disgusted by this kind of practice in the United States.

Is this the country of freedom that he has been pursuing?

Here is freedom.

But this is the freedom of capital, not the freedom of individuals!

Ma Tao made a decision.

At this time, Microsoft has also made a decision, even if it is in a dark way, it will do everything possible to attack the deeply optimized pirated Windows98 system.
