Chapter 863 - Do You Want a Code?

The team brought by Boss Jia is professional, so after the competition entered the final stage, Boss Jia left France, because there is no need to stay here, and Boss Jia has already arranged together, if there is still a problem at that time, then the entire team member will be replaced.

This is the first major event that happened to Daqian on August 1st, and the second major event is the debut of "Diablo" and "Red Alert", as well as "The Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"Ah, I really want to go to France!" On August 1, 1995, at the gate of the grid mall in New York, Huang Yiming, who had bandaged with Boss Jia, muttered.

In fact, today Huang Yiming originally planned that he should go to France to participate in the Pokemon Global Championship, and Huang Yiming, as the deputy editor-in-chief of the latest cutting-edge game media in the United States, does have this economic strength.

But Huang Yiming's parents did not agree with Huang Yiming to go to Paris alone, Huang Yiming asked the whole family to accompany him, but his parents were even more reluctant, which would cost tens of thousands of dollars!

You must know that Huang Yiming's planned travel cost alone is 5,000 US dollars, and if a family of 6 (Huang Yiming's family has a grandmother, parents, and Huang Yiming's two younger brothers) all go out, it will cost 30,000 US dollars!

Well, of course, this is unrealistic, in fact, Huang Yiming estimated that if his mother went out with him, then with her ability to make a careful budget and sweep the supermarket to reduce prices, I am afraid that the travel cost of 6 people will not cost 5,000 US dollars, and 4,000 US dollars will be used for the cost of flying back and forth.

All in all, Huang Yiming's plan to go to France has come to naught, but Huang Yiming's determination and desire to participate in the Pokemon Global Championship have not changed, but Huang Yiming plans to change his strategy and find another opportunity to participate in the tournament.

However, it is not without its benefits not to participate in the tournament, at least Huang Yiming will be able to catch up with the game launches of "Diablo" and "Red Alert" this time.

Huang Yiming also did not go to Los Angeles to participate in E3 because of his parents, but Huang Yiming learned a lot of E3 news through the reporters of his magazine, so Huang Yiming was still a little regretful, regretting that he did not get the pre-order code of "Diablo", otherwise he could have obtained a set of limited edition peripherals.

This made Huang Yiming very depressed, so that he didn't have a smile on the way to the mall, you know, according to the official announcement, this time the pre-sale peripherals are absolutely out of print, and the peripherals will not be sold again for any reason in the future, which makes Huang Yiming, the collector, how can he stand it, and the whole person is about to die of depression.

With such a mood, Huang Yiming came to the grid shopping mall and found that a large number of people had gathered at the entrance of the mall at this time, and they were basically young people, which surprised Huang Yiming.

The opening time of the New York grid mall in the morning is 10 o'clock, although today is a Sunday, but for young people, this is a good time to lie in bed and sleep, how can so many people gather in the grid mall.

"Hey, the starter was only in the grid mall, so I took half an hour on the bus to come over!"

"What's half an hour? I cycled for an hour and a half and got up at 6 a.m., it was miserable! ”

"I'm telling you, if this Diablo isn't fun, I'll go to BBS, Daqian and Blizzard will be bloody...... By the way, there is also "Gamer" magazine, which boasted "Diablo" so badly, if it wasn't fun, I would have set me up for three years "Gamer", and all of them were retired! ”

The words of a few nearby players made Huang Yiming unconsciously talk about his head, as if he was the deputy editor-in-chief of "Gamer" magazine.

However, at this time, Huang Yiming also understood why so many people gathered at the entrance of the grid mall, and his feelings were the same as himself, and the players who came to buy the "Diablo" game

"It seems that there are more and more colleagues in this world!" Huang Yiming couldn't help sighing, don't look at Huang Yiming is only 16 years old this year, but Huang Yiming is also a 10-year veteran player.

Huang Yiming has been associated with games for as long as he can remember, and he clearly remembers that when computer games first appeared, there were often no people in the entire store, near the shelves where computer games were placed, and it was very deserted.

At that time, it was the peak of console games, and when famous console games were released, there were often hundreds or even thousands of people queuing up to buy them.

Now I can't imagine that computer games have such high expectations and the number of players, Huang Yiming estimated that the number of people waiting for the grid mall to open at the scene is at least about 500 people.

"It's a pity that I still don't have a pre-sale code......" Huang Yiming sighed, and was about to wait in line with everyone when a thief-eyed guy suddenly approached Huang Yiming.

"What do you want to do!" Huang Yiming looked at the guy who came to his side with some vigilance, although this is also a person with a Chinese face, not black or Mexican, but Huang Yiming is still a little scared when he approaches so suddenly.

"Friend, don't be nervous, I'm asking you, do you want a pre-sale code?" The thief-eyed guy asked with a smile.

"What a pre-sale code!" Huang Yiming's eyes lit up, isn't this a sleepy pillow?

"Diablo's pre-sale code, of course!" The guy laughed and said, "For $50, you can get a Diablo pre-sale code!" ”

"$50!" Huang Yiming shouted, "But when you pre-sell, you can buy it for only $30!" ”、

"Friend, you have the ability to go back to the E3 scene a month ago!" This guy smiled and said, "If you have the ability to go back, then help me bring back hundreds of pre-sale codes, I have $40 a here, and I will collect them all!" ”

"You bastards!" Huang Yiming scolded, but he could only pay obediently, no way, the pre-sale peripherals were too fragrant.

"Thank you boss!" Seeing that Huang Yiming still paid the money, the other party smiled even more happily.

"You receive a pre-sale code for $40, it seems that your pre-sale code is selling very well!" Huang Yiming asked suddenly.

"That's it!" The subject smiled and said, "I bought 300 pre-sale codes when I went to E3, and I was worried about whether it would be smashed in my hands, but I didn't expect to sell more than 200 in a month, and I now have less than 80 left in my hands, so I can't sell it out in one day today!" ”

"That's crazy!" Huang Yiming shook his head, and then asked, "By the way, do you have the pre-sale code for the red alert?" ”

"I'm going to ask for this, because there weren't many people who bought it at the beginning, and we didn't have any goods in our hands, but there weren't many people who bought the red alert pre-sale code, and you were the third one! Do you really want to? If you really want it, I'll transfer it to you! But it's a little more expensive, $80! The other party smiled even more!

"I want it!" The little fat man gritted his teeth and said, and then he saw the other party take out a mobile phone and make a call, and a few minutes later, someone really sent a red alert pre-sale code.

"Yo, you all have mobile phones, you really made money!" Seeing the mobile phone in the other party's hand, Huang Yiming was a little envious.

"Hehe, this is a Daqian mobile phone, cost-effective, only $1400!" The other party said.

"Only 1400!" Huang Yiming's eyes lit up, the $1,400 mobile phone is half cheaper than the cheapest Motorola, and it can really be bought!

Or buy one yourself!
