Chapter 18: "Demon Village" and International Students

One day in June, the final exams are approaching, which also means that the summer vacation is coming.

For students studying in Japan on a public scholarship, this also means that they are about to embark on a journey back to their home countries.

Japan's climate is quite different from China's. Especially for Chen Jiawang, an international student from the Chinese mainland.

"Did you come?" Chen Jiawang asked with a towel around his neck, beads of sweat on his face, and a little red on his cheeks.

Lin Dengwan looked at his roommate who had just come back from playing and comforted, "Why are you in a hurry, it's still early, and today's letter hasn't arrived yet." The third child has already gone and waited, and if there is one today, he will definitely get it back. ”

Chen Jiawang, whose skin is a little dark but looks quite healthy, said, "I'm a little too anxious." ”

Chen Jiawang, Lin Dengwan and the third child in their mouths are all roommates in the same dormitory, although they are all from China, but they are also from all over the world, and they did not know each other before they set foot on the ship to Japan.

In this era, publicly-funded international students, regardless of their background, only talk about their academic performance. Their homeland needs knowledge, so they choose to send their children abroad to receive an education and return to serve their motherland.

However, it will be chilling that about half of the international students do not go back after choosing to go abroad.

However, you can't give up food because you choke, so there has always been a problem of sending publicly-funded international students.

The four people in their dormitory are government-funded students from China.

Even Beijing and Shanghai in this era are a bit like "rural places" compared to Tokyo.

The prosperity of Tokyo made these young people feel that the world could be so advanced. It turns out that the scenes in foreign movies are cars everywhere. Call without care. It's not deliberately performed by foreigners in order to confuse others, it's real.

Seeing such a bustling city, they also understood the meaning of the motherland sending them out. It is to learn advanced knowledge and build the motherland into a prosperous, prosperous, and strong country that can live and work in peace and contentment.

Their hard work and conscientious attitude not only make the teachers and students of the school very good. I admire them as international students, and I also have a trace of admiration for the country behind them.

Because, with such a diligent people, even if the country is not good for the time being, one day, it will definitely become the best country on the planet.

Even, many years later, international students who came to this university. They are also admired by the teachers and students of the school because of the efforts of their seniors.

Of course, young people are young people after all. Even if they are strict with themselves, they will not be able to withstand all the trials and temptations.

They do not pursue glamorous clothes, they do not pursue the "high life". They were fascinated by the video games that have become popular in Japan for more than a year.

Video games are a thing for men, especially young men. It's like a powerful magnet. They just need to look at it and can't take their eyes off it anymore.

They started by using their free time outside of studying. Go to the arcade and watch other people play.

Why don't they play themselves?

This is because coins that cost 500 yen at a time are too expensive for them.

The state sent them out to study, not for them to play games. In fact, they don't have much money left over except for food and clothing.

Until later. The launch of the red and white machine made them completely moved.

There is a 12-inch black and white TV in the dormitory, which helped them learn Japanese a lot when they first arrived.

They learned that the red and white machine could be connected to the TV when playing. I moved my mind.

So, the four people in the dormitory all started their part-time jobs.

From being a dishwasher in a restaurant, to delivering milk in the morning, or even working on floor tiles. By the time their Japanese became better day by day, they also worked in jobs like cashiers, which required communication.

After two months of part-time work after school, they finally bought a red and white machine.

And the cassette, they only have one. That's not a problem, though.

In fact, not all Japanese players have the purchasing power to buy cartridges. Therefore, the red and white machine cassette rental hall came into being.

This kind of rental hall, just like the rental book house, is billed according to the number of days. The rental price of cassette is also divided into several gradients, the longer the launch time, the more unpopular the cassette, the lower the rental price.

So, four young people, after renting a cassette, will clear it all night. For them, video games are simply the most beautiful thing in the world.

A few more months later, one day, Lin Dengwan saw an advertisement for "The Future of Games" and a "Video Game Making Tutorial Album Series" in the library's "Game Pass" magazine, and he thought that since we love video games so much, why not follow the tutorial above and make one of our own.

So, the four people in the dormitory gathered in the library to study the topic of "Game Pass", which seems to be a game making cheat.

Since it's in a library, it's relatively easy to find the books mentioned on the album. Everyone started from scratch and learned how to make a video game.

After knowing the fundamentals, they decided on the gameplay and theme of the game.

In the end, they made a magical-style game called Demon Village.

However, since they didn't have a programming device, they were only able to draw the settings and write the code on paper.

After checking it many times, they stuffed all the documents of "Demon Village" into an envelope, and then paid a postage fee that made them feel painful.

After that, I began to wait day after day for a reply from Chiba Games.

In fact, as long as it is submitted, it is considered to be unpassed. Chiba Games will also reply with a letter telling them that they didn't pass and asking them to keep up the good work.

However, it is not known if their manuscript was lost or what. Another two months passed, and the solicitation period for "Chiba Games" ended. The reply from "Demon Village" has not yet returned.

Of course, Chiba Games and Hayashi did not ignore "Demon World Village", in fact, he was still quite surprised by the submission of this game.

This is not because of the gameplay of this game, but because of the code of the contribution, without any errors, belongs to the kind of contribution that can be burned directly without any modification.

However, due to the backlog of manuscripts, he saw it relatively late, so the reply will be relatively slow.

"It's back! It's back! The third child ran in from outside the dormitory door, closed the door, and said in a low voice but uncontrollably excited. (To be continued......)
