It is 2054, and the 305 is having problems with the global warming and the sea level rising up to 7.11 feet. Miami has had to reinvent itself because technology is too old for the time. The forms of displacement are increasingly difficult, the price of watercraft has gone up absurdly, and majority of the people study and work from home. With the scarcity of animals, food was much more difficult to have the majority used to produce their own food, others bred birds like Columbidae, parrot, doves, or some aquatic animals like alligators, fish, and aquatic snacks.
The price of trimming went up the higher they were the more expensive. The use of land vehicles was no longer possible, so people moved with boats, canoes, and jet skis. The population is increasingly obese. There's been a lot of growth in the E-Sports game. most basketball, football, and football were in buildings with seats mostly that weren't very limited so everything they didn't have much like shopping arenas, dates, and most parties were online because most of the population buy a boat or a helicopter. They had floating boat constants and had not yet created water traffic laws. it was difficult to leave Miami at first Miami was the most affected city in the world and so the United States decreed that Miami would be a country because of conflicts and so all other countries closed to Miami you had to have a lot of money to leave or enter Miami legally, a large wall was created between Miami and the other cities that bordered it to prevent the leakage of water to other cities.
Adicula Dikembe is a 23-year-old boy who wants to help the world situation regarding global warming but his goal is to be famous is very rich, as he says "I want to be famous at the Beyoncé level, I don't want to be able to sit down to eat in a restaurant" his ambition was so great that his like arrogance, but in a way, he is a happy boy but not happy with the situation he lives in, well-resolved with himself and above all very funny he is so funny that what many called swagger amusing funny. Adicula was a young son of refugees who had only his parents as a family who had died eight months ago for lack of medical care because they were very poor, and the price of hospitals was excessively expensive. Adicula was a super smart young man who graduated at the age of 20 in mechanical engineering who had no minimum conditions and who sought to be famous at any cost because he thought that fame was capable of solving all his problems. he lived on a hollowed-out yacht that didn't have a motor, but he managed to mount solar panels to get power on his boat, basically everything electronics he needed he assembled. He was an unemployed man who supported himself by selling his inventions on the black market. He has already sold a little of everything and what people don't buy he keeps for himself, the only item he never tried to sell was a robot dog called Kluivert that worked on the basis of artificial intelligence that he made when he was 17 for his parents because they had problems using the object of advanced technology. he saw a lot of his father's characteristics in Kluivert because when he said he wanted to be very rich Kluivert always replied in that robotic voice “it's not all about fame and money.”
Adicula's day-to-day was very repetitive he woke up every day around 12PM ate frozen pizza he made his videos for social networks, played video games for a long time and when the night came he faked booked invitations to clubs from high society in Miami he sold some and kept one so he could enter with the objective of entering and staying with the famous so that he could appear in a magazine but he was always ignored and he was even banned from entering some nightclubs because of the confusion he made with the famous security guards.
One day Adicula was making his sales on the black market by the computer and an ad appeared that would open the registrations for the biggest reality shows that would happen in Miami and would be watched in the world " fight for fame is a reality where 20 people on a luxury ship who will face each other in different tests of intelligence, resistance and strength the winner will win 500 bitcoins equivalent to 207 million dollars, and to enter you only need to send a presentation video ” Adicula knew that many people would sign up because it's a lot of money and in his head he thought that everyone would like to be very famous, he also knew that whoever was going to select the participants would be a kind of AI (artificial intelligence) he wanted to make a video that talked to AI and he spent the whole night making the video with the help of Kluivert until he went to sleep. When he woke up there were 5 minutes left to make the submissions, he simply uploaded the wrong video he uploaded a 3-year-old comedy video talking about how hard his life as poor was.
Two weeks later he receives an email saying that he would be part of the first 20 participants of the fight for he screamed with joy and said the following phrase "this is my chance" three hours later the production of the program was his search in a luxury helicopter and the moment he enters the helicopter he opens a bottle of champagne and says to the driver “this is the life I deserve” he put on some sunglasses and shook his head to the sound of DJ Khaled which in that era was a classic “All I do is win, win, win no matter what Got money on my mind I can never get enough”.
Arriving on the show you had to make a video for the world to know you and Adicula how a beautiful liar invented a personality he didn't have to try to please the public and stay in the game in his presentation he said "hello I'm Adicula Dikembe I’m from Miami garden, I like to be noticed I love to dance I did 15 years of classical ballet anyone who has a party just call me and I will rock it, I consider myself an extremely beautiful person, I am very competitive, I want to win not me I'm going to win the fight for fame” after that presentation most of the people who were watching thought he was very good firm funny and that they would interfere watching him.
Entering the ship Adicula was the last participant to enter and they started talking and made a circle to introduce themselves to each other and he said in his presentation that he had a degree in mechanics but worked with digital marketing, one of the participants, Maria, who already I had noticed that the things he was saying were not very coherent says:-“when we were talking, just the two of us you said that you no longer worked because it was very tiring and that you lived off the profits of your companies” Adicula awkwardly responds with a smile embarrassed saying “what I meant is that companies are for digital marketing” he ended the presentation and listened to the presentation of the others. Something they didn't imagine and that they were being watched 24/7 by the public and at that moment the public found the Adicula contradictory and started to distrust him and they went to look for information about him on social networks and found his video from 3 years ago about the difficulties of being poor. Without knowing why inside the ship they had no access to the outside world, he became a worldwide joke to the point of talking on public television about the "biggest liar on the internet".
After a few hours, the production team told them to put on light clothes and tennis shoes, as the first test of the fight for fame would begin. When they arrived at the evidence room they were told to pair up and Adicula chose Mienzen. Mienzen is a 28 year old young adult immigrant from the Caribbean islands who was in the program to help improve his family's living situation.
The production said that the test would be of Resistance and that they had to hold two boxes together with only one hand. When the test started they started talking to get to know more and also to see. If time would pass faster. When Mienzen said how difficult it is to live with a minimum wage in Miami and that he would work as many hours as he could there for his family and Adicula says “I understand you, I identify a lot with you” Mienzen starts to think and asks “how a person who has so much money, companies, boats and luxurious apparitions identifies himself with a poor guy like me” then Adicula starts to cry and says:-“I was never successful, I lied because I wanted to feel bigger than others and actually I want to be very famous and change my reality” Mienzen starts to comfort Adicula and the two start singing cartoon songs so they don't seem like they're weak in front of the other participants. 12 hours later, there were only two pairs left, theirs and Maria's, who was his biggest enemy on the ship. Adicula was very tired so Mienzen who was 98% fine gave up because he knew Adicula was very tired. When they all went to the room, Adicula just cried and looked at the sky saying “dad, mom, I'm sorry but I couldn't take it anymore.”
After everyone had woken up and set out to socialize in the external area of the ship, production informed them that they were being seen by the public 24/7 and that the public would vote to eliminate the participant they liked least. With 120 million votes, adicula was eliminated and greater justification on social networks that he was a liar and that he tried to deceive the public.
When he left the show he saw that he got what he wanted the most which was the fame he so wanted to ride expensive helicopters, attend parties in VIP presence, he would sit down to eat in a place and not get it because people couldn't stop taking pictures with him, until he discovered that people only did it to laugh in his face everywhere he went, people shouted “I am a successful entrepreneur”. Adicula started to go into depression when he realized that fame is not all he thought he didn't get out of bed for days couldn't sleep well until Kluivert his robot dog arrives and projects a log message from his father that he had made when he is in his last days and in this message Adicula's father said "sometimes we have to get to the bottom of the well and inside there is always a rope and we have to decide if we use it to climb to the top or wrap it around our neck" he started to cry desperately and grabbed a sharp piece to kill himself. That's when Kluivert starts designing Adicula's works when he was a child. And then he decided that he didn't come into the world to be famous but to help others so he had projects to help reduce the water in Miami.
After two months locked up at home he goes to a meeting with investors to support his projects, they accepted.
One month later Adicula opens a brand of engines that run on water the same company made the first flying car and the name was Dikembe follow your real dreams.
