Chapter 3: Past Events I

() It's 8:45, and there are still 15 minutes left, glancing in the direction of the 250 machine qì, the GaY man seems to be completely immersed in the game, shouting and screaming while playing, pulling the mouse with an amazing amplitude, and the keyboard crackling when it is knocked. "Khan died, GaY man, macho man, country master, 250, a tendon. 5 people with 1 body are so perverted when they play games, "Teach and lead" Duoduo thought to himself, and gave Zhu Yongfeng 5 nicknames by the way.

10,9,81,0 The last 10 minutes of the difficult one finally passed, and Duoduo gave Sister Zhang a look, and the work card hit the time on the punch card machine, and got off work! Duoduo breathed a long sigh of relief, picked a way that did not pass from Zhu Yongfeng's front, walked to the back door of the Internet café, pulled the door, went out, and closed the door, "eaSY!" ”

Duoduo let out a long sigh, thinking indignantly in his heart, "Why are such stupid people lack money, but fate likes to play tricks on people when I'm so smart." Don't look at today's fun, be careful to pull the green list in the future! Hmph"

The noise of the Internet café was blocked by the glass door, and the light came through, imprinting the thin shadow of Duoduo on the road in front of him, and the low illegal buildings on both sides were scattered, and it was pitch black outside the place illuminated by the glass door. "The city that never sleeps? Hehe, she doesn't belong to people like me. Duoduo felt a wave of frustration in his heart, took out a small flashlight from his pocket and walked forward, turned a corner not far away, stopped, took out the key and fumbled open a door and entered, and immediately remembered the creaking sound of the wooden staircase. Duoduo tried to take his steps as lightly as possible, cautiously afraid that the sound would wake up the old couple on the first floor, the old couple went to bed early, and had no children, living on the minimum living allowance and the rent of the small attic upstairs, and Duoduo was their only tenant.

I took off my shoes outside the door, and the light didn't turn on as soon as I entered the door, so Duoduo threw himself on the bed not far from the door, burying his head in the pillow. Thinking about the way the young master from the countryside just now, his thoughts brought him back to more than 2 years ago.

March 2008, the suburbs of Nanjing. As the name suggests, several universities form a community of dúlì, trapping tens of thousands of restless students in this place far from the city. The good minds in the ivory tower probably thought that they would create a holy place for people to learn knowledge away from the world, but they did underestimate the "enthusiasm" of these young people.

In addition to schools, supermarkets, hospitals, parks. The university town has the largest number of employed people in the three industries, including low-rent housing, rì rental, and hourly housing, service providers such as hair washing rooms, foot washing rooms, massage rooms, etc., and entertainment companies represented by Internet cafes, game halls, and chess and card rooms.

At 4 o'clock in the morning, on the second floor of an ordinary house, the low roar of more than 50 machines rang out. Compared with other Internet cafes, this Internet café seems very strange, only half of the machines are sitting in front of people, and the other machines are open there. There are few players with an image and temperament like a student, and the atmosphere is even more weird, which is very different from the scene of shouting and screaming in other Internet cafes, most of them here are happy, with haggard faces, and their hands are mechanically lit with keyboards and mice, all playing a foreign game "Dark War" by a powerful agent.

"Xiao Ding, Xiao Zhang, it's your turn." A yawning man in his 20s banged on the door opposite, and the sound of Suosuo's dressing came out of the room, "It's time!" So sleepy. Go to sleep, it's hot. The door opened, and the two young men walked to the Internet café while talking to the young man who called the door.

They're pro gamers, if that also counts as "playing". Unlike professional competitive gamers, this group of players has a generally average income, and they can never expect to be as lucrative as SKY at the top of the pyramid, nor will they be as adrift and foodless as players at the bottom of the competitive gaming pyramid. In fact, they are no different from the workers on the construction site, which are called famous coin warriors and dollar warriors at best, and migrant workers in online games at worst. The construction site worked for a year, ate a big pot of rice, lived in a shed, suffered hardships, had dark skin, honest and firm eyes, and knew that every sweat was worth the harvest. In a black Internet café, when a RMB soldier eats fast food box lunches for a year, he lives in a rental house with more than 20 people in 2 bedrooms and one living room, his skin is pale, his eyes are hesitant and wandering, and he dreams of making a windfall by playing games.

This Internet café is a standard online game studio, and more than 20 resident Renmei Coin Warriors watch more than 50 machines work in 3 shifts. Some machines use plug-ins to open the hang-up machine to make money, and you can take care of it for a certain period of time to pour out the game currency. Some machines are more open, and the raw materials such as ores in the game are also taken care of by special people at regular intervals. There are people sitting in front of the computer screen, and the manual cāo is generally to play money or brush equipment in high-level places that are not easy to use, and then it is to help customers level up the characters in the game.

This kind of online game studio can't be big, it's not easy to manage and the cost is very high. It can't be small, it's not enough manpower, it's not enough to form a scale, it can't be played in the game, the cost of playing game currency will be high, and you can't make money selling game currency. It can't be in a fixed location, and the owner of this kind of Internet café will definitely not play a huge amount of money to apply for a license, but can only play hide and seek with the management departments of public security, industry and commerce, and culture in another place. The configuration of the machine qì is also very particular.,4,5 sets with high configuration,Used to do tasks in the game,Fight bossThese things that require stability dìng and cāo,20 or so medium configurations,Used to manually play money brush equipment to train more open,Other configurations are rotten,Used to hang up。

The staffing is roughly divided into three levels, the first level is the person who understands the essential skills of computer maintenance network technology, plus a few people who are close to the boss. 2 and other players who stay for a longer time and have better skills, such people generally have 1,2 high-level game numbers of their own, and their monthly income is about 1500~2500 and includes food and accommodation (when the market is at its best). 3 and so on are those who want to earn some pocket money, or those who don't have money to play games to have a good time, this kind of people flow xìng big technology is poor, according to the workload of the wallet can not be covered, the income is very meager.

The two who just woke up are on the night shift, and they usually have to say hello to the boss when they work shifts, "How about the boss harvest in the middle of the night?" "When I called Xiao Zhang, I found the boss sitting in front of a machine by the door." Boss? Boss? Asleep? Why are you still fighting monsters when you fall asleep? Boss, I'm green onion white for you! Xiao Zhang shouted.

The man who is called the boss is a man who looks like he is in his early 30s, and he looks sloppy, but it is not difficult to see that he is very stylish, with angular facial features and messy hair and a stiff beard, showing a temperament that is both mature and decadent. The boss was asleep, the corners of his mouth drooped, and his masculine face was childish when he fell asleep.

Wait, someone just said he's still fighting monsters? The snoring boss rests his left hand on the keyboard, his right hand is clearly in the corner of the cāo vertical game, the left mouse button is steadily clicked, and a samurai on the screen is slashing the monster in front of him.

Everyone was attracted by Xiao Zhang's scream, and they all left the machine and gathered behind the boss, the whirring sound was calm and long, and every time the samurai on the screen solved a monster, the boss's left hand pressed the game shortcut key on the keyboard "Choose the nearest monster, attack", and so on. There was a burst of admiration.

"The boss is favored!"

Whew~

"The boss's warrior Niu X, when you fall asleep, you can single brush a level 50 jīng heroic monster."

Whew~

"The boss is the boss, I want to practice to this level for an estimated ten years!"

Whew~

“”

Whew~

"Boss wake up! It's dawn! "People gossip, the boss falls asleep and beats him.

"I'm dizzy, I'm sleeping so hard. Can any of you say a word to wake him up? Give 100 gold if you do it! Don't shout! "A good start with a bet with people." If you can't wake up, give me 50 gold."

"I'm coming!" Someone responded immediately. Leaned down and whispered in the boss's ear, "Boss~ You have no blood!" ”

The boss immediately pressed a blood vial on the keyboard with his left hand, but the whirring did not stop at all.

"No, it won't!" The benevolent brother began to go berserk, "Wait and I'll try again, and if I lose, I'll give you 100 gold!" Continue to lean down, "Boss ~ The Industrial and Commercial Bureau is here!" ”

Whew~

"Hahaha" the crowd laughed.

Whew~

"I'll try" another "boss!" Out of the boss! ”

Whew~

"Boss! It's on fire! ”

Whew~

"Boss! I'm X, you're X" The crowd laughed again

Whew~

"Boss, there is something I have always wanted to say to you~ I have liked you for a long time!" A lewd man makes a big move.

Whew~

"Boss, Muto Lan's new film!" "Boss, your wallet fell to the ground!" "Boss, how much is your bank card password?"

Whew~~~~~~~~

The gamblers were already laughing from ear to ear, and everyone was crazy.

"Boss! Your son has come to you for money! I saw that the boss opened his eyes suddenly, and as if he was very frightened, he lowered his voice and said hurriedly, "Just say I'm not there!" ”

"Hahaha Everyone burst into laughter until their stomachs cramped and staggered.
