Chapter 815: Rio
Tang Jiayi woke up from her sleep, opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling, the mattress under her was still making relentless movements, making her quickly regain consciousness.
Habitually yawning, she propped herself up and sat up, and the thin quilt slid down to reveal a pair of curvy peaks, presenting an alluring beauty that made the man's blood and blood unbalanced.
But unfortunately, there was no one present to appreciate at this time, and the person next to her pillow was gone at the moment.
After thinking about it for a while, Tang Jiayi remembered what Atletico Madrid was doing. That guy is not a diligent person, he usually doesn't get up until the end of the day, and getting up early can only be something to do, and there is such a thing today.
"It's the Olympics again!" she sighed meaninglessly, and she got out of bed and washed up.
The quadrennial Olympic Games are just around the corner, and the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro is taking place across the globe.
Ten years ago, Brazil's economy was booming, and Goldman Sachs touted it as one of the BRIC countries (BRICs), alongside Russia, India and China. With a good economy and money, they naturally began to seek international influence, and it was undoubtedly good to bring the Olympics to South America, and then they applied for the Olympics.
It's just that Brazilians never thought that the seemingly prosperous good days would be ruined by the smog.
When bidding for the Olympic Games in 09, the global iron ore was in a rising market, from 70 US dollars / ton all the way to 120 US dollars, and it continued to rise after the New Year. The market is good, Brazil's Vale, which ranks among the world's three largest iron miners, is making a lot of money, and the largest shareholder behind it, the Brazilian Securities Administration, is also full of oil and dividends and taxes.
The only thing that is more uncomfortable is that I rabbit those large and small steel enterprises, scolding Baosteel big bastards, but the pace of technological transformation and expansion to reduce costs has not stopped, and the increase in demand for increased production capacity naturally fuels the arrogance of the mining plant, and finally makes the price of iron ore rise to the top of $180.
Since it's the apex, it's time to go down next.
The smog is frequent, the people are complaining, the media is chasing the report, and finally touching the limit of patience, and then the supply-side reform of coal pressure and steel control land. Strict control of production capacity naturally affected the upstream of the industry, coal prices were cut in half, coal bosses could no longer drive Hummers and sing, iron ore returned to double digits, and the life of mine bosses was also a little uncomfortable.
Vale has been expanding production aggressively, which is also tragic. The company was known as the economic engine of the Amazon region during its boom, but now it has a cold, and it has also caused problems for the entire Brazilian economy.
Of course, Brazil is not limited to mining, the fall in iron ore is just one of the more obvious of the many troubles, the other is the fall in oil prices, the European debt crisis, and the crisis of confidence in the Brazilian government.
It is precisely because of these troubles that the Olympic Games have a bad start, the progress of the venues is seriously delayed, and the opening is still rushing to catch up with the progress.
Although the work was finally handed over, it also left a bunch of flaws that people complained about, and the athletes' village changed from "king enjoyment" to "village-level treatment", which is the most typical example.
But in any case, the Olympics are always the Olympics, and everyone complains and complains, and they will still pay attention when it opens.
Atletico seemed to fall in love with the job after successfully completing the live commentary of the European Championships in France, refurbishing his home studio and making a cameo appearance as an Olympic commentator.
Compared to the European Championships in France, the time difference has a much smaller impact on watching the Rio Olympics.
From March to October, when daylight saving time turns on in Paris, the clock is six hours behind the 8th arrondissement, and East Asian audiences who want to see the local afternoon and evening ball games can only be prepared for a night battle.
Although Rio in the southern hemisphere also has daylight saving time, but from October to February, the clock is now 11 hours slower, and when I get up in the morning to prepare breakfast, Rio is still "last night", just in time to see the games that will be held in the evening.
Normally, most of the daytime matches are group stages, qualifiers, and other things that ordinary people are not interested in, and the most eye-catching and influential finals often don't go until the evening. It is conceivable that watching the finals while having breakfast, and at the same time replenishing material food and spiritual conversation, will become the daily life of a considerable number of Chinese people in the next half month.
However, the audience can turn on the TV again as long as they don't miss the final flag-raising ceremony, but the media workers dare not do this, and there is no chance to sleep at all. Even Atletico Madrid, the business anchor, also got up more than an hour earlier than usual and launched his Olympic live broadcast program ahead of schedule.
When Tang Jiayi walked into the studio, the scene he saw was a little weird, there were several screens in front of Atletico Madrid, on which the live broadcast of the opening ceremony of major TV stations was being played, and he himself was playing with netizens in the live broadcast room, and the long line of constantly refreshing cartoon pictures on the screen looked very conspicuous.
Atletico quickly noticed her and raised his left hand to signal in.
Pushing the door in, putting the porridge bucket on the countertop, Tang Jiayi was about to speak, when she saw the other party pointing to the screen and said: "Wife, look, this year's opening ceremony performance is very exciting!"
Turning her head, she saw a group of strangely shaped humanoid creatures running around the stadium, looking a little joyful and weird.
Noticing the disapproval on his wife's face, Atletico shoved a pair of headphones into her hand, "Put this on." If there is no sound, no matter how good the show is, it will not come out!"
The enthusiastic drum beat and cheerful melody soon entered the woman's ears, and her hands, feet and neck swayed involuntarily, and the group of people on the screen felt much more pleasing to the eye, although they still did not understand what they were trying to express.
Calling a chair for the other to sit down, Atletico continued their work.
Tang Jiayi occupied one monitor to watch the live broadcast on full screen, but he watched six screens on the other two screens, and watched the live broadcast of the six major TV stations at the same time. Then select valuable footage from it and take a screenshot, use the table tool to convert it into an emoji, and send it to his live broadcast room.
Before the start of the Olympic Games, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) had specifically stated that it would tear up emojis and strictly prohibit anyone from using live broadcast footage. This was supposed to protect the rights and interests of TV broadcasters, but it also brought opportunities for bees.
"Doutu" is not a patent of domestic netizens, emojis are the "just need" of this era, Bee Software thinks about what the masses think, is anxious about what the masses are anxious about, and releases the mobile app "LegalEmoticon" in response to the occasion. Thanks to Bee's powerful neural network technology, the app can turn photos or screenshots into cartoon images that are instantly recognizable. This not only avoids portrait rights and copyright disputes, but also does not affect everyone's normal communication, and is really loved by users, and the number of global downloads has exceeded 10 million, and it is still increasing rapidly.
However, these downloads are mainly from developed countries such as Europe, the United States and Japan, and domestic players still prefer to use emojis made with the original screen.
Noticing this situation, Bee deliberately introduced LE into its own businesses such as Honey Chat, 2 stations, and Swan Live, and used it directly without installation, which improved the utilization rate of the product. Atletico is doing its duty as a supernumerary spokesperson, actively using the table tool to try to lure more people into its arms.
Soon, Tang Jiayi also noticed the movement of the people around her, pointed to the screen and asked curiously: "What are you doing here?
"Doutu?" Atletico looked at her in surprise, and then looked at the screen along her line of sight before he understood, and said with a smile: "Haha, it seems that we are really fighting pictures." ”
As soon as he thought of it, he immediately changed the name of the room in the live broadcast room to "The First Olympic Fighting Picture Competition: Atletico Madrid invites you to fight!"
Then he once again offered a tried-and-true goose feather offensive, throwing out tens of millions of goose feathers as a total prize to encourage players to participate.
"Why don't you broadcast the opening ceremony live, what are you doing with this?"
"I'm doing it, but it's a live broadcast of the opening ceremony in the form of memes. ”
There weren't many people watching the live broadcast in the morning, but Atletico Madrid's live broadcast public screen was still full of various emoji pictures. If you look closely at these pictures, you will find that they are all from the live broadcast of the opening ceremony, in which the wonderful, goof, and funny scenes were intercepted by everyone and made into emojis to be shared together.
"Why don't you use the game live? Didn't you contract the official game of the Rio Olympics and get the right to broadcast it?"
Ever since Barcelona '92 authorized the launch of Olympic Gold, the official video game has become the standard feature of the Summer Olympics. However, with the improvement of console performance, the graphics of Olympic games continue to be upgraded, and the development cost is also rising, which is not as attractive to developers as before.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been attracting investment for the official game of the Rio Olympics for a long time, but the collapse of its former partner, Euro in the United Kingdom, and the closure of Sega Australia, have left other developers lacking interest. In the end, it was Bee Games that stepped up and filled the gap.
Rio2016: GoldMedal was released worldwide last month, and has been available on consoles, mobile phones, PCs and other platforms.
Compared to the previous game, this version also uses on-the-ground materials and somatosensory controls, and also adds a VR mode, which allows players to compete with players from all over the world at the Maracanã Stadium without worrying about the Zika virus that will kill their children and grandchildren.
Although the whole world is studying this virus, there is no specific drug or vaccine for the symptoms, and Brazilians can only reduce the harm by working hard to create health and actively eradicate mosquitoes, but they cannot cure the epidemic, and the interest of foreign tourists to travel to Brazil will inevitably be affected.
In addition, for the first time, this version of the Olympic game also introduces a live streaming function, which allows players to share their game footage with other players, and also be able to watch the official "live matches" provided by Bee, and compete against real champions as "extra players".
There was no such function in the initial development case, and later the "Crazy Foot 3" test the waters of the European Cup live broadcast strongly pushed up the performance data, and Bee You, inspired by this, decisively organized elite soldiers to develop the "champion opponent" free DLC in a month, and launched it smoothly before the opening of the Olympic Games. The move was well received by players, and the game's sales increased considerably, achieving the best result in the history of the official Olympic game.
Hearing Tang Jiayi mention this function, Atletico couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Dear, what we got was only the right to broadcast the game information, not the opening ceremony. Could it be that I should replace these artists with cheerleaders, and then replace these dignitaries from various countries with passers-by?"
Realizing that she had asked a stupid question, Tang Jiayi could only hide her embarrassment casually, and said: "Seeing that they were so embarrassed before, I thought that this year's Olympics would smash the pot." ”
"Our opening show is grandiose, the opening show in London shows off cultural history, and Brazilians have their own unique advantages. Dancing with enthusiasm and dancing with confidence is the racial talent of others. ”
As if to provide a commentary to his words, the audience on the screen left their seats one after another to follow the dynamic and hot dance music, dancing and dancing with their hands, turning the entire Maracanã stadium into a sea of dance, and also making the opening ceremony enter the highest court.
It's just that the good times didn't last long, and the dancing didn't last long, and soon it was time for the athletes to enter the ceremony.
For athletes lucky enough to go to Rio, the entrance ceremony is undoubtedly glorious and worth remembering, but for the melon-eating masses, the lengthy entrance ceremony is a bit boring. Although the special tricycle equipped by the guide in this Olympic Games is very eye-catching, and the athletes who are busy posing with selfie sticks and posing for their expressions are also very interesting, but watching tens of thousands of people pass in front of them, the audience's attention will inevitably drift away, such as Tang Jiayi taking her eyes off the athletes and paying attention to the lazy volunteers in the camera.
"What's so strange about that?" said Atletico Madrid, who was surprised by her fuss, "If you want to be an Olympic volunteer, the first task is to learn to be lazy, otherwise you will be tired and paralyzed if you don't help others." From the group dance just now, this group of people has not left, and they have to dance for two hours until the refugee team and the Brazilian team come out, and then they can withdraw and rest. ”
"Where is the national team?"
"At 43, there's still a little bit to go. ”
"Oh," Tang Jiayi responded, and then remembered the porridge bucket in front of her, pulled it over and patted it, "And this, I almost forgot about it." ”
Atletico Ma went outside with a porridge bucket, Mrs. Ma sat in his seat, her eyes fell on the middle screen, and then she was attracted by a line of text, "What about Boss Ma?
After thinking about it, she typed and replied: "Mr. Ma went to breakfast, you all hurry up and eat, it hurts your stomach if you don't eat breakfast, smiling face." ”
Then she was bombarded with a bunch of question marks, Atletico Madrid just turned off the audio and video transmission, and netizens could only guess when they saw her words.
Most of the guesses are normal, but there are always some people who have different thinking circuits, some people guess that the opposite side is robots and aliens, and some people guess that the opposite side is Xiaomi and lovers. Tang Jiayi watched it with relish at first, but she was a little annoyed when she saw the latter things, so she simply turned on the audio and video transmission, and appeared on camera to see and hear it correctly.
