I am weak and friendly

Chapter 199 This booming, shabby company is no longer worth staying at.
It took Stoka an hour to finish the entire presentation, spouting nonsensical remarks.

His performance was nothing short of "perfect".

Although his words were rambling, incoherent, and jargon-laden, leaving people completely bewildered, they perfectly matched human fantasies about dogs.

It falls into the category of "Oh no, what if the dog is smarter than me?!" "Stay calm, it's not a big deal."

It's not easy to grasp this scope, especially since once Stoka is put on a "translator," she turns into a chatterbox.

If it weren't for the burning spirit of the [Ox and Horse], he probably wouldn't have been able to hold on.

By the time Stoka came down from the stage, he was exhausted and almost collapsed.

In the backstage preparation room, Tang Yiping quickly brought it water and dog food to reward it.

Even cattle and horses need care... I guess so.

However, the reporters did not intend to leave. Many reporters swarmed forward, wanting to interview Stoka. Tang Yiping and Brother Ban quickly protected Stoka and left.

If Stoka accidentally reveals his ability to "speak like a human" during an interview, that would be disastrous.

How do you say that.

It's not scary that AI can pass the Turing test; what's scary is that AI deliberately fails the Turing test.

We mustn't let them find out that Stoka is deliberately talking incoherently.

To prevent future trouble, they removed Stoka's translator and his tie. Ban and Tang Yiping took it back to the eighth floor, where they encountered several reporters in the elevator.

"Wait, isn't that the same dog from before?" the reporters exclaimed in surprise, "and they swarmed around it to interview it."

“No, that’s my guide dog,” Tang Yiping said. “Wasn’t that dog wearing a tie just now?”

"Oh, I see." The reporters nodded quickly.

then……

Wait, something feels off?
Do people with lower limb disabilities need guide dogs?
I wouldn't recognize this dog if it took off its tie?
Fortunately, the elevator was too fast. Before the reporters could even detect the smell and realize something was wrong, they had already arrived at the 8th floor. Tang Yiping and Brother Ban took Stoka and rushed out of the elevator, making their escape.

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, Tang Yiping twitched his nose.

"What's wrong?" Ban asked.

“This…tastes wrong,” Tang Yiping said.

"Smell?" Ban sniffed. "What smell? There's no smell at all!"

Of course, Brother Ban couldn't smell it.

However, Tang Yiping could smell the unpleasant aura of thriving and vigorous growth in the air!
Wait, where's my favorite smell of decay?
Where did that company that was on the verge of bankruptcy, struggling to survive, and could collapse at any moment go?

At this moment, Tang Yiping felt that this company was completely unfamiliar.

In fact, Tang Yiping had a vague feeling a couple of days ago that the company was slowly no longer his ideal.

But at this moment, this contrast is so obvious and clear.

No! No! Please don't!
My beloved atmosphere of bankruptcy, please come back!
Tang Yiping wailed inwardly.

Wait, who am I kidding?!
Everything from the past may never come back.

The feeling is like a wanderer who has left home for many years and finally returned to his hometown, only to find that his hometown has been completely changed.

When I returned, I was already in a foreign land...

He thought sadly.

Moreover, I caused all of this myself.

Linghai Technology was bustling with activity all evening. Lu Mingyuan even promised everyone that he would organize a team-building activity soon and take them out for some fun, which drew cheers from the crowd.

Even though it was already past 6 PM and people had already left for the day, several people still stayed behind.

"Hey, why aren't you leaving yet?" Tang Yiping asked, puzzled.

“Brother Ping, you didn’t leave either! I want to follow Brother Ping’s example! I will work hard for the company every day!” said Liu Teng, Shen Qianyu’s mentor.

Tang Yiping: "..."

speak English!
He leaned closer and saw a video course displayed on Liu Teng's desktop.

Liu Teng was a little embarrassed and said, "I used to do app adaptation, but back then it was for Windows Phone... that's completely useless now. I want to pick up app adaptation-related skills again. Diting is so popular, our company's next focus will definitely be on Diting, and the business prospects are so good. What if we hire some young people and they push me out? I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with the company's pace, so I need to learn something quickly..."

Tang Yiping: "..."

No, how could you do this?
I still prefer the way you guys leave right after get off work, and even when you work overtime, you still slack off and do all sorts of things, and even when you're in the toilet, you all curse Bao Ge together through the partition!
The way you all secretly studied while everyone else was home was utterly despicable! I despise you! I despise your efforts!
Tang Yiping left dejectedly, just like a slacker who hates a top student who secretly works hard.

He stood at the door of the development team and glanced inside.

Well, they're all acting like they've been injected with chicken blood.

Having lost his skills before, Tang Yiping felt he could no longer rely on scavenging.

Back at the Special Projects Department, Tang Yiping opened the Internship Team group and saw that the usual dejected atmosphere had changed.

"Wow, is our company suddenly about to become rich?"

"I knew Diting was popular, but I didn't expect it to be this popular! Wasn't this supposed to be open source? How can our company have exclusive rights to it?"

"I heard that the person who developed the Diting is a good friend of someone in our company, so he exclusively authorized the development rights!"

"Is that so? Wait, wasn't our company supposed to be developing FOEW? When did we switch to Diting? Isn't this a bit of a big turn?"

"I don't want to talk to someone like you who just got online..."

"Brothers, I regret it. I'm doing my internship well now and trying to stay at our company. Is there still a chance?"

"I regret not increasing my friendship level with Bao Ge!"

"Yeah! I heard from my classmate that there's a small summer job fair in the university town in a couple of days. I was planning to find a new place to intern. Damn, does that mean I don't need to work hard anymore?"

"It's decided. Now I need to focus. Tomorrow I'm going to ask Brother Bao for more work and try to stay! Go for it! Work hard! ON! ON! ON!"

Seeing these interns suddenly become so passionate, Tang Yiping felt incredibly sad.

"I can't stay at this lousy company anymore. I'm planning to find a new place to intern. Where and when will the summer recruitment be held?" Tang Yiping asked.

"???"

"Hirako has gone mad!"

"How can we run away at a time like this? This is like enduring ten years of hardship to finally get the company listed on the stock exchange!"

"I'm tired. I just want to find a company that's about to go bankrupt and quietly be a couch potato."

"???"

Although puzzled, the other party still sent over the information about the supplementary recruitment event.

"Anyone want to come with me?" Tang Yiping asked. "Let's go find a new internship together!"

"Emmmm..."

"This... Hirako, you're sick, take some medicine quickly!"

"You could ask Professor Yang to give you an electroshock treatment; maybe that will stop you from acting so crazy."

None of you understand my pain; in the end, I have to bear it all alone.

Ah, life, so lonely as snow.

Tang Yiping closed the group chat and said to Brother Ban, "Brother Ban, I'm going off work now."

"Okay, go back and get some rest."

"Tomorrow... well, he might not come."

"Do you need to rest for a few more days? Or do you need to go to the hospital for rehabilitation? Do you need my help?" Brother Ban asked.

"Brother Ban, if I were to travel the world, would you come with me?"

Ban Ge: "???"

"My love for the company has vanished," Tang Yiping said.

Ban Ge: "??????"

Tang Yiping packed his things and was about to leave with Stoka when he saw Lu Mingyuan appear outside the door.

"No, Brother Ping, I will definitely work hard and make the company bigger and stronger!" Lu Mingyuan lunged forward and slid to his knees, hugging Tang Yiping's leg. "If there's anything you're not satisfied with, please tell me!"

I'm not satisfied with your desire to make the company bigger and stronger, but how can I tell you that?

Tang Yiping had lost all will to live.

Family members, who knows!
