| Publisher Description: Christopher Blake is a budding young talented computation programmer and sociology specialist with talents for coordinating communication. Throughout his college years and early professional career Christopher always passed the basic tests that result in getting the right people to pay attention. Advertising, media, and various forms of digital technology applications converted ordinary people into a following that tipped the balances of political and economic power. VNOC (Virtual Network Operations Center) 211997 was Christopher's secret economy filled with bit currency miners on auto pilot. In the real time economy society was heading downward due to the political manipulation of the Corporatocracy, and elitist that only paid attention to corporate funding. All else in society was either manipulated or controlled under the direction of the Corporatocracy. Christopher Blake and companion Jeanette were double agents of a masterfully crafted social and economic take over that restructured corporate rules and put state controlled journalism to sleep. As Christopher and Jeanette endured questions from the Council on Foreign Relations and corporations that they free-lanced for they never lost their cool. Their secret purpose to return balance to society remained hidden online in the abyss corners of "Nowhere Land", an inner pocket of the digital universe that only Christopher and Jeanette knew how to access through their cloud activated CPANEL. As the Advertising Overlord, Christopher gains an early following and is able to grow t his following into an army of opportunists that unknowingly follow all of Christopher's commands through VNOC-211997. These opportunists compile their skills in a multitude of industries, and those skills are tied together to run independent of the Corporatocracy's inquiring eyes. By simultaneously controlling the distribution of media and a secret digital economy, Christopher and Jeanette can either crush the old world empires, or remain silent and keep the spoils for themselves. |
