Chapter 203: Festival
This exercise was planned in advance by Glasses Girl and some administrative departments in Hanzhai City, and Hanzhai University is now in a higher and higher strategic position, and it is not surprising that it has become the main target of the rival country, so Glasses Sister thinks that the people in the city must have an understanding of this emergency measure.
It is not enough to rely on ordinary propaganda, such exercises can play a real preventive role. The glasses girl also plans to raid once a year in the future, as a festival, but this festival is irregular, and it will not notify the people in the city. Of course, you don't have to worry about whether the property on the half-house city will be stolen at this moment, because there is the whole process monitoring of the glasses girl, there will definitely be no problems.
The results of this exercise are still good, and it seems that the propaganda in Pingyueli has had some effect. In order not to let everyone slack off on this kind of exercise in the future, the glasses girl decided to introduce a series of reward and punishment measures. If you don't enter the dungeon within the allotted time, you will be punished by volunteering for the next day's festival.
After the exercise is over, it is natural that the whole city will be rewarded, after all, in this exercise, some people have lost a certain amount of money. The festival is a big carnival in the city, organized by Hantaku University, and a large parade will be held around the business district, with the main performers being students from Hantaku City. There are a total of fifty-one universities, and a 100-person performance team can be discharged from a family.
The glasses girl calculated everything, so she implemented this exercise plan.
"Dear residents of the half-housed city, congratulations on the excellent completion of this exercise, and no one remains on the ground for the allotted time. After three minutes, the exit will open and everyone will be able to go out. It is best to go back the way you came, and if you forget, you can check it through the virtual system. In addition, a grand festival parade will be held in the business district tomorrow, so everyone is welcome to come and watch it. ”
With Miss Orange's explanation, the people in the dungeon also knew that it was just a drill, and they all breathed a sigh of relief. Of course, it's more of a complaint, and the drill is not notified in advance, isn't this a blind toss? Zheng Lu was also a little crying and laughing, but Zheng Lu also promised that more than half of the management of the mansion would be taken care of by the glasses girl, so it was normal for this kind of thing not to inform him. Even the President of the United States, who is here today, and those people in Shanghai, are not as sullen as they are in the dark?
"Mr. President, it turned out to be just a false alarm, I'm really embarrassed!"
The mayor is also quite embarrassed now, it turned out to be just a drill for a long time, no wonder even if he showed his identity just now, he still couldn't contact the above.
"No, it's nothing, but it opened my eyes!"
The United States also has underground bunkers, and if there is a war, they will also go there to command, but the scale of this shocked him. The entire half-house city has come down, but it only occupies the space on the first floor. I heard that there are seven floors in the entire dungeon, of which there are five floors that can accommodate people, so there are quite a lot of people that can be accommodated.
The people here are very well prepared, and even if there is a real war, they can calmly enter and take refuge until the war is finally over.
"This is an underground kingdom!"
The entrance had already opened, and Mr. President couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the residents of the half-house city pouring out like a tide. If this place is usually open, it will definitely be the happiest thing for the underground forces. Mr. President remembered the underground forces in the United States, who liked this kind of place that the superficial society could not reach.
If there is really the end of the world, I am afraid that this is the safest place!
Mr. President thought to himself. The defense here is really top-notch, but it can be done elsewhere, but here is the most important source of food and water. Mr. President had already heard that the bread, beef, and unknown beverages he had just eaten were all produced on the seventh basement floor, and that it was impossible to do that anywhere else.
The whole crew went out the same way, and some people who didn't remember the exit could find the passage they had just passed through through the virtual system, and then they could go up and find their cars and other things.
"Mr. President, there will be a grand festival parade here tomorrow, won't you stay and take a look?"
Through the broadcast just now, the mayor also learned about the festival, so he invited the President of the United States to participate. Of course, this is just a matter of etiquette, and besides, people may not be willing to stay, and I haven't fully recovered from this scare just now.
Sure enough, the president of the United States politely declined the invitation, and this time his visit to Banzhai City was unplanned, and if he stayed longer, he was afraid that those people in the country would be in chaos. And the president suddenly disappeared for about an hour, and he needs to explain it immediately, otherwise it will really cause some disputes.
After sending off this group of people, the residents of Banzhai City began to discuss this festival. According to Hantaku University, this is a big carnival for the whole city, but I don't know what show will be released.
"Could it be a tomato throwing war or something? Or samba? ”
"Probably not, there is also a traditional tofu throwing festival in China, and there are a few imitations of tomatoes, but they are all wasted. Hantaku University is known as a creative university, so it shouldn't be imitated, right? Samba is even more, do you know how to dance? ”
"I won't, will you? So apart from these, what else can make the whole people carnival together? ”
"How do I know? Beating the gong to encourage the dragon and lion dance looks old-fashioned, anyway, I can't think of it. ”
The people in the half-house city are discussing the possible festival activities tomorrow, especially when they look at the people in the business district who are decorating their stores with festival makeup, and their hearts are even more curious. These businessmen are not stupid, they know that the carnival in the whole city means that the people are rolling, and naturally the wealth is rolling. So they are not far behind, and they all began to decorate their stores in preparation for tomorrow's festival.
But no one knows what it is, so it's all up to your imagination. Some people think it's a city-wide masquerade party, so the employees are dressed in character costumes, and the shops are decorated with castles and haunted houses. Some people are more traditional, just make a few big balloons and put banners at the door, which is really lacking in creativity.
Before the festival even begins, the atmosphere in the business district begins to become lively, and tourists are very interesting to see the various tricks displayed by the shops, and some people deliberately stay to see what the festival will be tomorrow.
was disturbed by the drill, and Zheng Lu's work plan in the afternoon was disrupted. All the people in the Ark team were discussing the situation of the exercise and tomorrow's festival with great interest, and they didn't have the heart to focus on their work at all. Tomorrow is the weekend, and it's almost time to get off work, so Zheng Lu is not difficult for them, so let them discuss it enough.
"Xiao Luzi, hurry up and help me!"
Zheng Luzheng wanted to go back and take a rest, and by the way, he asked Fang Xin to go to see the festival tomorrow, but suddenly a call request popped up, and when he opened it, it was Zheng Weizhi's. Virtual systems are now available in both the inner and outer cities, so it's rare to see someone holding a mobile phone on the street.
"Big landlord, what's going on?"
Because Zheng Weizhi and Lei Yu were the only ones with land in the half-house city, Zheng Lu jokingly called them big landlords. Their house is near the center of the business district, which is a hot area, and many people are hot to look at, but unfortunately there is no intention of selling these two more bids, so gradually no one touches this nail.
"It's not you who made that festival noisy, oops, the shops around here are all full of flowers, and a lot of people are looking around. We also want to learn how to do it, but we don't know what to do, so we don't ask you for help. ”
It turned out to be this thing, but Zheng Lu didn't know what he was going to do in this festival, it was all done secretly by the glasses girl and the fox Xiaoxuan, so Zheng Lu couldn't do anything about it.
"Ahem, who told you to guess what tomorrow is? You just have to come up with an idea and make something special, otherwise tomorrow's business will not have our share. ”
"Okay, anyway, I don't have anything to do here now, so I'll go and see you."
After getting better, Zheng Lu took Fang Xin to Zheng Weizhi and Lei Yu's store. Before coming, Zheng Lu also asked the glasses girl and Huhua Xiaoxuan about the content of the festival, but these two people looked like they were strictly keeping secrets, and no matter how Zheng Lu asked, he didn't let go, and finally Zheng Lu stopped asking, and it was a surprise.
Zheng Lu didn't come to his hometown when he opened the store here, so it was the first time he arrived. There are five floors in total, which is much wider than the previous one, and each floor has its own different products, including anime, manga, games, and peripherals, and the last floor is a communication area for customers that we mentioned earlier.
The communication area is made of wooden planks on three sides to form a space like a large kang in the northeast, and you can only go up after taking off your shoes and socks, and there is a small table on it, whether you are watching anime or playing games, you can provide it here. Except for those drinks and snacks, there is basically no charge. Because Zheng Weizhi has a membership card, only people who have purchased a certain number of anime games in their store can use this layer, and according to the different levels of the card, the services they can enjoy are also different.
This point has brought Zheng Weizhi and them a lot of repeat customers, not to mention anything else, that is, the complete set of small half-house university plant illustrated books in the middle of this exchange area is enough for them to appreciate. At this moment, Zheng Lu and the others are talking here, drinking the juice produced by the Suyuan tree, and then tasting different flavors of snacks, which can be described as extremely comfortable.
"You kid hurry up and come up with some ideas, and I didn't let you eat and drink for nothing. Once you have an idea, you can eat as much as you want, and I will never stop you. ”
Seeing Zheng Lu eating dim sum one bite at a time, and shamelessly asking the waiter to continue to add more, Zheng Weizhi knew that this kid was here to fight the autumn breeze. So with a big stroke, he pulled the dim sum to his side, not letting Zheng Lu continue to speak.
"Look at you stingy, this thing can still make you, a big landlord, poor?"
Zheng Lu tried to grab a few times, but it turned out that he was not Zheng Weizhi's opponent, and he didn't grab a single dim sum. So he sat down helplessly and told Zheng Weizhi his idea. In fact, this idea is also very simple, that is, let Zheng Weizhi engage in an antique movement and let the clerks wear ancient clothes. Make the waiter look like a palace maid, and then make a dragon chair or something to make a palace style, this is the real emperor-level service.
"Will this work?"
As soon as Lei Yu heard it, he knew that Zheng Lu, this kid, was talking nonsense, and he probably came up with it on the spot. Lei Yu really guessed correctly, Zheng Lu just said it casually. But the so-called idea came up like this, and Zheng Lu suddenly felt that it was really feasible.
"Okay, then it's decided, I'll go to Shanghai to get some lineup right away."
Zheng Weizhi also thought about it in his heart, and felt that it was still somewhat feasible, so he went out. There are a lot of fashionable gadgets in the half-house town, and there are many costume stores for cosplay, but there are really no such costume-like ancient costumes. So Zheng Weizhi wanted to go to the costume props factory in Shanghai to have a look, there must be the kind of costumes provided for filming TV series, just buy dozens of sets and come back.
"Eh, by the way, I said that Wei Zhi, it's absolutely no problem for you to be the head of the house, remember to get two sets and put them on yourself."
Seeing Zheng Weizhi rushing out, Zheng Lu couldn't help but tease again. Zheng Weizhi was also stunned for a moment, thinking about what the chief manager of Da Nei was doing for a long time, and finally realized that he was a eunuch, so he scolded Zheng Lu and left.
"Hehe, Xinxin, don't be happy, eat quickly, you don't have to save money for these two big landlords."
The environment here is really good, and the atmosphere is good, and many people who don't know each other can also discuss anime or games together. Zheng Lu felt that he liked it very much, so he got two platinum membership cards from Lei Yu with a shy face, one for Fang Xin and himself, and he could come here often in the future.
There is a manga booth in this exchange area with all the manga of Hantaku University, as well as some other manga magazines. With the strong launch of the half-house comic station, the level of domestic cartoonists has improved rapidly, and some of the comics that were not selected for the half-house manga station went to these magazines, and the same mix of wind and water, some of them are still students of the half-house university.
Hantaku University does not want to monopolize any of the anime games, so instead of banning it, it encourages students to develop in various ways. It is the existence of these magazines that inspires the people of Hantaku University to keep moving forward, after all, the identity of the leader of the industry also has a certain self-esteem.
Looking around, Zheng Weizhi didn't know where to get several Pangu hosts, and there were many people playing there at the moment. However, the number seems to be a little small, and many people take turns to play, although they are all casual games, but they seem to be more suitable for this kind of occasion.
"I said thunderstorms, it's all free? Aren't you afraid that someone will get a membership card and stay here every day? Then you will die a real loss. ”
The wear and tear of equipment, electricity bills, etc. are all expenses, and if you really meet this kind of person, then the money earned before applying for a membership card is not worth it. However, they also have a way to deal with thunderstorms, and this kind of junior membership card has a time limit and lasts for one month. If you don't spend enough in the store within a month, you will be disqualified, which greatly reduces the occurrence of Zheng Lu's situation.
The more advanced ones, such as silver and gold membership cards, have a slightly longer time limit, while the platinum membership card that Zheng Lu took is truly unlimited. However, there are few corresponding ones, and so far only Zheng Lu and Fang Xin have such cards. This businessman, his real surname is the same everywhere, Zheng Lu is really in vain.
After eating and drinking, Zheng Lu accompanied Fang Xin and left. Although tomorrow is the festival, the preparations before this festival are also unique, Fang Xin really wants to experience it, so Zheng Lu can only accompany him.
………………………… At nine o'clock the next morning, many people were still asleep, but they were woken up by the explosion of several cannon salutes, and then Miss Orange announced the start of the festival and released the schedule of events in mid-air. In the morning, everyone has not yet assembled, so there is no activity, and the real activity time is from 12 o'clock at noon and lasts until 12 o'clock in the evening.
From 12 noon to 6 p.m., all kinds of activities burst out. Glasses didn't spend any brains thinking about the activity, but threw the question to the presidents of the chambers of commerce in each region. There are a total of 16 districts in the business district, and each region has a chamber of commerce to manage and coordinate the various business activities in the district.
These people had been given this task before the exercise, so they had roughly already thought about the program they were going to make. Some are original, some are plagiarized. For example, there is a war of throwing the fruit of life, this fruit has four tastes, which are sweet and sour, and it is impossible to judge which taste it is before tasting it. In addition to sweetness, the other three tastes can be said to be very terrible, and if you accidentally eat them or the juice flows into your mouth, you will be considered a failure.
Even if the juice of the fruit flows into the eyes, it will have no consequences, at best it will feel sticky. And it's soft, seedless, and just right for an assault weapon. Divided into two teams, red and blue, see which side is all judged out, and the other side is considered to win.
There is also a vertical vine climbing competition, in which a tough vine is grown in the building and lowered to the ground, and the competitors start the climb with the help of a safety rope. This building is very high, at least about 30 floors, and the height of nearly 100 meters is not for everyone to dare to go.
Mushroom stomping contest. Virtual mushrooms will constantly appear on the ground in the entire area, and everyone can quickly step forward and step on them to get points. Mushrooms that don't use color also have different scores, and of course the higher the score, the rarer and less likely they are.
All winners or the top players in the tournament will be rewarded by the business district. The rewards given by each business district are also different, depending on whether the funder is generous enough.
From 6 to 12 p.m., there will be a parade of floats from the student phalanx. The students used their imagination to transform the car into a different look, so to speak, as a cosplay version of the car, and then they would perform on it in costumes of anime characters.
Because the floats don't move very fast, the parade lasts about five hours, and it can go around almost the entire business district. Each car carried ten performers, and the final convoy was five hundred and ten cars, which was a long line. Because of the glow-in-the-dark trees, it is almost as bright as in the daytime, and there is plenty of light, so you can see the float show.
This event notice was all delivered to the virtual assistance system of everyone in the half-house city in the form of email. After reading it in detail, everyone decided on the event they wanted to participate in, and then they started to move towards the target area.
