Chapter 37: Game Upgrades, Hospital Observations

On November 20, Nie Wei defeated Fujisawa Hideyuki and finally overtook him after falling behind three people, opening his road to chess. On the same day, the women's volleyball team defeated RB to regain the lost World Cup. Two world champions in one day made the people of the whole country boil. Some people who still had firecrackers in their homes began to crackle.

In this era of all kinds of horses, sports may be the only bright spot. Some trolls in later generations scolded the national system and the championship effect, but they didn't know how exciting it was to win a world championship in an era when China was inferior to foreign countries in terms of population and population.

Zhang Zhao hugged his shoulders and looked at the children who were scrambling for firecrackers - the quality of firecrackers in this era is not good, and there will be at least 10 or eight firecrackers that are not lit when they hang 300 firecrackers. Watching a group of children happily scramble for explosives, Zhang Zhao suddenly remembered some old memories from his childhood.

It seems that every few years there is a popular thing called a paper cannon, which is simply to put a little gunpowder between two layers of paper, and then hit it with a hammer or brick to make a crackling sound. The complex ones are simply made into six, eight rounds and a plastic ring, which can be fired in six or eight bursts with a revolver, which is a tall thing.

Can you get Dou Qiu to make this thing? No matter how bad it is, it can be mass-produced match guns, which can be regarded as a rich product line. Thinking of this, Zhang Zhao went to the small workshop behind to find Dou Qiu, after these days of development, the small workshop has been very decent, 3 tables as workbenches are wrapped with galvanized iron sheets, in addition to the chainsaw, but also added a grinder and a hand-cranked mimeograph machine for printing.

As soon as Zhang Zhao walked into the house, he was dizzy by the shrill sound of sawing. He hurriedly covered his ears and motioned for Dou Qiu to come out and speak.

"I said your working environment here is too bad, right?" Zhang Zhao slapped the sawdust on his body and complained.

Dou Qiu said: "There is no way, the money has to be spent on the blade, I am not willing to buy a set of multi-functional woodworking tools, by the way, what are you looking for me?" ”

Zhang Zhao said: "Didn't someone set off an artillery battle today? I think of your matchstick, that thing should be easy to get, right? And if you can make it into a burst, like this......"

Dou Qiu's eyes lit up and said, "You want to sell powder guns?" It's not impossible, but since it's a fire thing, it can't be done with only wood, you have to have some iron guys, and you have to have springs or rubber bands, and the estimated cost is not low. ”

Zhang Zhao said: "If you use plastic, I remember that there is a kind of bakelite thing that can withstand high temperatures, right?" ”

Dou Qiu spread his hands: "I don't know how to make plastic things, so I have to use professional tools, right?" ”

Zhang Zhao said: "You make a few looks first, the structure is as simple as possible, and I'll find someone to ask another day." He thought of his aunt, he had become the chief technician of a toy factory in his previous life, so it wouldn't be difficult to make this kind of thing, right?

Dou Qiu hesitated for a moment and said: "By the way, I went to Fengcheng to deliver the goods yesterday, and I heard from the person who received the goods that there are now several new games and chess coming out." "Football Chess" is a minefield that no one dares to do, but volleyball and basketball have come out, and they should be modeled after football chess. ”

Zhang Zhao said: "This is normal, this thing is simple to make, any small workshop can produce it, and someone will do it sooner or later." "In this era, Huaguo does not have the so-called copyright awareness, and even some state-owned enterprises see good ideas and use them directly. What is that?

"But the purchaser wants to take advantage of this to reduce the price, he said that other people's goods are cheaper than ours......"

Zhang Zhao said: "Don't reduce the price, but we can update the version and sell DLC." ”

Dou Qiuqi said: "Update? DLC? What does that mean? ”

"Heck, it's probably just making a new board, or adding new ways to play, or something." Zhang Zhao explained casually that in this era, there is no steam, no civilization, no girl scrolls, and naturally there is no DLC madness.

Dou Qiu hesitated: "Then you make a new chessboard, what about the original game chess, will anyone ask for a return?" ”

"This is simple, the new chessboard is sold separately, just a piece of paper, and it can be sold cheaply for 1 or 2 cents. This stuff is cheap to print in bulk, right? "In fact, the most profitable way is to change the name and come up with a new game like those unscrupulous copycat factories, but that is not conducive to the promotion of toy brands, so it is better to disassemble and sell.

Dou Qiu said: "This is a good idea, because the content will be updated frequently, and people who used to buy toys will not feel at a loss." ”

Zhang Zhao said: "I'll design the content, but you also have to get the color printing out as soon as possible, just the wax paper black and white printing is okay, and it feels like it's not grade after a long time." ”

"I'm trying to figure out a way, and I guess it will be about the same in half a month."

"By the way, it's best to get someone who can draw, and in the future, in addition to the checkerboard and text, you also need to add some illustrations."

"I'll get this first, and when I find the right person, I'll talk ......" Although Dou Qiu didn't go to school well, he was a clever person after all, and he was not bad at writing and drawing. After he began to print himself, he engraved the wax paper of the chessboard with a pen and needle.

The next day, Zhang Zhao handed Dou Qiu the redesigned map of the red scarf traveling around the world, and then handed over the story background and gameplay instructions of a few hundred words. In this update, in addition to making a new map, it also opens up character skills. Each character has their own unique skills, for example, Zhang Zhao's own skill is home, and he can have a chance to roll the dice in each game but stop in place; Li Gang's skill is that of a thug, who can knock people into the hospital when they meet other people......

"You're fast!" Dou Qiu took the chessboard and looked at it, and took two pistols with different shapes behind him and said: "I made two guns, but they are both single-shot, I haven't figured out the kind of wheel you said, if only there were real things......"

Zhang Zhao rolled his eyes, in kind? Do you want to get you a real gun? He said to Dou Qiu: "There is no way to do this, you can study it yourself." I said you don't have to do it yourself, it's better to read more books is the right thing. ”

Dou Qiu sighed: "I regret dropping out of school a little now, I don't understand many concepts in the books you gave me, so I have to figure it out by myself." ”

Zhang Zhao said: "I hate Shaobei when the book is used, you can also go back to school now, and the school status has not been cancelled." ”

Dou Qiu shook his head: "Forget it, I'm ambitious, I can't stay in school, let's see if I have an opportunity to learn by myself in the future." ”

The two said goodbye, and when Zhang Zhao walked home, he found that his grandmother and aunt were waiting anxiously at the door of the house, and when he saw Zhang Zhao coming back, his grandmother wiped her eyes and said, "Zhang Zhao, hurry up and put on some clothes." Your dad fell from the stairs while working on the construction site and broke his arm, and your mom has rushed to the hospital, so let's go to the hospital together in a while! ”

Railway Hospital Inpatient Department, 3rd Floor Orthopedic Department. The hallway was filled with the pungent smell of disinfectant water, and a nurse pushed a white cart and turned into the side of the room.

"Zhang Ruizhong!" The nurse shouted, "Come here and get the injection." ”

Zhang's mother hurriedly agreed, and helped her father sit up. The father's left and right sides were wrapped in bandages and hung on his chest, and there was a patch of tape on his forehead. The mother helped the father take off the hospital gown, revealing his waist and hips. The nurse opened the lid of the enamel box painted with a red cross, took out the thick glass needle, and opened an aluminum lunch box with rows of needles inserted into medical gauze.

Zhang Zhao watched the nurse quickly cut open the glass medicine bottle with a grinding wheel, sucked out the potion, and finally combined the needle and gently squeezed a jet of water from the needle, and couldn't help but feel the muscles of his buttocks twitch. Hey, you don't think you're going to give me an injection. The shadow of childhood really can't be hurt, but fortunately, the later generations have changed to hanging water, although it has been a little longer, but it will not be pierced by a vicious nurse aunt and can't walk......

Dad walked back to the bed after finishing the needle, and his mother helped him lie down, and then said to Zhang Zhao and his party: "Mom, what are you doing all this way here?" Ruizhong is okay here, just take care of me. ”

Dad also said: "Yes, I just fell my arm, thanks to Zhang Zhao for reminding me to bring a safety rope......"

"Zhang Zhao? What does this have to do with Zhang Zhao? The grandmother looked at the bandaged arm of the third son, a little sad, and suddenly heard that it was still related to her grandson, and couldn't help but ask strangely.

Zhang's father said: "It's just last month, my son is arguing for me to go to work every day and tie a safety rope." It's troublesome to death.,It's awkward when you work.,Usually no one likes to use it except for the scaffolding worker.。 But this time, thanks to it, I would have just fallen from the fourth floor, instead of hanging in the air like I am now, and my arm was knocked off by the window platform. ”

Zhang Zhao was stunned for a while, the original lumbar vertebra fracture became a fracture of the left arm, although it should be a good thing, but he still realized the terrifying inertia of history, even if he had reminded his father to pay attention to safety when working, he could not avoid it.

"Third nephew, you said you can dream of the future, it turns out to be true?" My aunt's voice was a little loud, which caused everyone else in the ward to look at it together.

Grandma glared at her aunt angrily: "You dead girl, you should sew your mouth with a needle and thread!" ”

My aunt stuck out her tongue and stopped talking. However, an old lady on the adjacent bed said: "Old girl, what special function does your baby really have?" Let's take a look, too? ”

Zhang Zhao secretly said that it is not good, he is not afraid of being sliced, since 79 years SC has children's ears to recognize words, children across the country who claim to have special functions are 1000 and 800, if they are all sliced, then what will it be? But the problem is troublesome, in case the civil science comes to him every day to cooperate with the research, it will be miserable, he is most afraid of trouble.

Zhang Zhao rolled his eyes and said to the clinical grandmother: "Okay, I see people most accurately." Grandma, you have been married 6 times in your life and have 18 children......"

The middle-aged woman who accompanied the old lady scolded angrily: "What are children talking nonsense? My mom never remarried, and my brother and I had two children! ”

"Hey, it turned out to be a child's nonsense, I thought it was really qigong and special functions."

"yes, yes...... White was happy! ”

As soon as everyone saw that there was no more excitement, they began to talk and chatter, no longer paying attention to this side.

Fortunately, he escaped a catastrophe, Zhang Zhao secretly gasped, sat down for a while, and Zhang Mu said: "Mom, Ruiping, you all go back, just take care of me here." ”

"Alright, here we go. It's cold, so I'll leave this dress to you. Grandma took out the prepared clothes and handed them to her mother, and then left the hospital with her aunt and Zhang Zhao.
