February 1, the twentieth day of the lunar calendar.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, there were still three hours left before the new product launch.

Magical City, No. 1 Canteen.

Ye Shuqing took his girlfriend Shi Na and found a place to eat in advance to deal with the upcoming press conference.

Considering that he will also appear on the stage of the press conference tonight to introduce the game "Miracle Continent" developed by the team he led, in order to avoid accidents, Ye Shuqing casually sandwiched some light vegetarian dishes such as green vegetables, shredded potatoes, and scrambled eggs with tomatoes, without making any high-end ingredients such as seafood, black pork, and steak, and ate it very simply.

"Husband, are you going to wear this casual dress to the stage? Why don't you change into a more formal suit, that might be more appropriate."

Shi Na looked at her boyfriend affectionately, put forward her suggestion, and at the same time was full of pride and pride in having such a boyfriend.

As a matter of fact.

Shi Na, who has a nearly eight-point appearance and a goddess temperament, originally wanted to successfully take root in a first-tier city before the age of thirty, and find a man who has the ability to buy a house in a first-tier city to marry.

She feels that her requirements are really not high, she is already very pragmatic, and she is not too ambitious.

But......

Until she was twenty-eight years old, she had been working hard in the big city for five or six years, and she had spent a lot of money on the blind date platform, all of which ended in failure, after all, the houses in the first-tier cities were worth three or four million, and the expensive ones were five or six million or even tens of millions.

Shi Na had to obey her family's request and returned to her hometown for a blind date, and she had an aunt, who even recommended Ye Shuqing to her, saying that it was definitely the most valuable potential stock, so that she could try to get in touch with this guy and get along.

Shi Na didn't like to sweep her aunt's face, so she met with Ye Shuqing, knocked on the side, learned about his situation, and got this information: the monthly salary is less than 30,000, there is a car but no house, the deposit is more than 500,000, and the appearance is noble, which is more suitable for her eyes.

Even among her spare tires and licking dogs, there are three or five, and their potential exceeds that of Ye Shuqing.

But Shi Na still plans to give Ye Shuqing a chance to see how his emotional intelligence is, whether he will make girls happy, and whether he has romantic cells.

As a result, after a few days of getting along, Shi Na was disappointed, this Ye Shuqing was clearly a lump of wood, and he spoke relatively straight, always thinking about his work, and often entered a state of concentration, completely ignoring her feelings, and was simply a workaholic.

Shi Na was angry.

I don't want to deal with this guy anymore, it's better to find a licking dog with good conditions than to find this person.

But as soon as I saw this guy engrossed in thinking about the problem, he became excited from time to time, and occasionally danced happily like a child, Shi Na felt that this person was still quite interesting, and he was motivated to work to this extent, which just showed that this man was very reliable and worthy of trust, so it was better to observe for a while and avoid harassment from other blind dates.

This observation came on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and he was about to go to work in the city.

Shi Na just quit her last job, and the pressure of survival in the big city is very high, and she can't save any money, but she is used to life in a big city, and she can't get used to staying in a small place, so she should propose to break up with Ye Shuqing, and apologize that they are not suitable for each other, and Ye Shuqing can't give her the life she wants.

"Come with me to the Magical City."

Ye Shuqing took the initiative to speak: "I still have a good impression of you, if you don't object, I'll take you to my place of work, and I'll raise you."

"You raise me?"

Shi Na felt moved and funny, shook her head and said, "My requirements are not high, a house in a big city, no loan, I am willing to give birth to children for you, can you satisfy me?"

"The hardware facilities of Magic City in all aspects are no worse than those of first-tier cities, or even better

And for employees who have made outstanding contributions, they will be allocated housing for free, they can bring their families to live in, they can also bring their girlfriends, and they will also arrange jobs for their families, with a salary of five or six thousand a month, including food and housing, which is no worse than living in a big city with a monthly income of more than 10,000 lives."

"No matter how well you blow it, that magical city is just a big factory, how can it be compared to a big city?" Shi Na still shook her head.

"Seeing is believing, I'll take you to live in the magical city for a week, no, three days, if you still have to leave after three days, I will never stop you, I don't know if you are willing to take out three precious days to give us a chance?" Ye Shuqing asked.

"I don't ......"

Shi Na wants to say no, but after this period of mutual familiarity, she also knows a little about the magical city, and there are a lot of news on the Internet, which is indeed quite a magical place, and even more, the sky is blown here, what employee annual turnover rate is less than 1 in 10,000, etc., the canteen food is the first in the world, and the abalone king crab is very exaggerated, and I think it is fake news at a glance.

But......

It's only three days.

How about experiencing it?

What if those are true online?

Seeing is believing, if most of them are fake, you don't have to stay for three days, you can leave in a day or two.

"Alright, I'll give you a chance."

Shi Na thought about it, and it was this sentence that made her change her fate, and in the years to come, she felt lucky for this sentence many times, because at that time, she actually didn't want to go to find a job and a house so quickly, since there was a man willing to support her, it was better to give him a chance - she thought so at the time.

And then.

Sitting in Ye Shuqing's electric car, I arrived in the Magical City and lived in the 80-square-meter staff suite assigned to Ye Shuqing by the company - to be honest, the decoration is indeed very luxurious, and with Shi Na's critical eyes, I can't find any problems.

But how can it be so easy to feed a delicate woman?

For example, in terms of eating, in the staff canteen of Magic City, there are really big dishes such as king crab, pine leaf crab, and lobster, which employees and their families eat casually, but not many people eat them, because they have long been tired of eating, and organic rice is always popular...... Well, in terms of food, Shi Na couldn't find any thorns, and even the idea of wanting to stay in the big city in her head began to waver.

For example, in terms of buying clothes, women who like to dress up rarely have to buy three or five sets of clothes every month, but in the clothing supermarket in the Magic City, those clothes with good quality and fashionable styles are cheap thirty-fifty-one, expensive ones are more than one hundred, and the most expensive tweed coat is rarely more than three hundred, all of which are sold at cost price, so that people can achieve freedom of dressing as long as they spend less money.

There are also 5G networks, hospitals, schools, gymnasiums, libraries, Internet cafes, cinemas, express stations and other supporting facilities, a lot, most of them are free, and the service level is also very good, no different from first-tier cities.

Only in the cosmetics section, most of them have to pay for themselves, and they have to spend two or three thousand a month.

However, with the help of Ye Shuqing, a week after living in the Magical City, Shi Na was arranged with a job she is good at, with a monthly salary of 7K and 50 days of paid leave per year, of course, she can also choose a monthly salary of 5K and 90 days of paid leave per year - Shi Na chose a high salary, which is completely enough for her daily expenses and can save half of it.

Refreshing.

It's really nice to work in the Amazing City.

There is a sense of living, not surviving.

As for the three-day appointment, Shi Na was completely left behind, and now in her eyes, there is only one man, Ye Shuqing, and the spare tire licking dog in the mobile phone has all been blocked and deleted, and even the mobile phone number has been changed.

In the following days, Shi Na actually took the initiative to serve Ye Shuqing at the request of a good wife and mother, cared for him, and contracted most of the housework, becoming simply not like the original self.

No way.

Shi Na's current goal is to be firmly established in the Magical City

Take root and become a part of here, it is best to marry Ye Shuqing as soon as possible and get a license and give birth to a child, so that you can get a bigger and better house, and in the future, half of Ye Shuqing's salary will also be hit on her account and get more property rights, and the current girlfriend identity is not very stable and reliable, once she breaks up (or divorces), she is not allowed to continue to stay in the Magical City, that is, the Magical City, which is very biased to protect the interests of the core employees. And this point has been dissatisfied and protested by many boxers on the Internet.

So this is also the reason why Shi Na has become virtuous and diligent, if she usually has a little conflict with Ye Shuqing, she will never dare to put the word "breakup" on her lips, otherwise she will only suffer the loss.

And in the Magical City, there are so many couples, after a quarrel and breakup, the women who were kicked out all regretted it very much, kneeling at the gate of the Magical City to apologize and ask for reunion, and they were even more warned by countless girls, of course, Shi Na also quickly reined in her own little trouble.

In addition, in private, Shi Na also added a chat group of "A Good Wife and a Good Mother Ties a Man's Heart", where she often exchanged experiences, discussed how to be a good wife and mother, and how to guard against the intervention of a third party, etc., and learned a lot of knowledge.

In daily life, Shi Na is also becoming more and more gentle and considerate, has seen a lot of positive and beneficial chicken soup, and resolutely resists poisonous chicken soup, so her relationship with Ye Shuqing is getting better and better, and she has agreed to get the certificate on May 20 this year, and have children as soon as possible.

And Ye Shuqing, because of the gentleness and sensibility of women, and took on most of the housework, so that he could put all his energy into his work, so he finally achieved very good results - the game "Miracle Continent" developed by the team he led not only entered the ranks of the top 100 boutique games, but even entered the top ten, and won the qualification to introduce the game on stage with the overall third place, which made Shi Na feel extremely proud, after all, this military merit medal has more or less part of her credit.

Back to the reality in front of you.

Ye Shuqing shook his head and said, "No need to change, wearing a suit on stage, I will not feel comfortable, I will feel nervous, I may play abnormally, and I will not be able to introduce the games I do, which will make me more relaxed."

"Husband, do you think our company's game consoles can succeed in the market, and your game can sell a lot of copies?" Shi Na asked again.

"I don't know, I can only guarantee that the game I make will not disappoint and will definitely make players like it!"

Ye Shuqing said with a serious face.

"Well, I also believe in your husband, this time, the group can fight a turnaround battle and make a lot of money."

Shi Na nodded, now that life is so good, she really doesn't want the group to lose money and go bankrupt, she must achieve profitability, and develop better and better, and stand tall forever for a long time.

……

Soon.

Eight o'clock in the evening, inside the Magic City Coliseum.

The press conference of [Classic Peak Game Machine] finally began in a burst of passionate music.

For this grand event in the science and technology circle, there are naturally many netizens who pay attention, such as the live broadcast channel of station B, which quickly poured into more than 100,000 viewers, wasting their precious time to watch this press conference.

And don't get me wrong, most of these viewers in the online live broadcast are trolls and black fans, and there are few supporters.

Zhang Xiaofeng, who also paid attention to the press conference, noticed that in the comment area and barrage, there were remarks such as this:

"Scammer, give me a quick death!"

"Archaeological research is not going to work, and consumers don't want to eat the grass you make!"

"Last year, you released more than 50,000 TV sets, and even foreign customers don't buy your accounts.

"Hehe, make a simple FC game console, others can do it with a free emulator, you don't have to spend a penny, you can get back your feelings, who will spend money to buy your outdated game console?"

"The total investment is close to 15 billion, just for a broken game console, what are you kidding?

Do you make a fool of us? At most, it will cost 100 million to reach the sky, and some R&D teams estimate that they can do it by giving them tens of millions.

"It's greasy, there must be a huge cat, you don't have to guess to know it."

"When the game console fails, the god-level group can exit with dignity and disappear in the technology circle, we consumers don't need you, your existence is completely superfluous, and your products are waste of resources, meaningless."

"That's right, don't take up our attention and time anymore, leeks are not easy to cut, you can really leave."

「……」

Seeing so much negative and unfavorable rhetoric.

Zhang Xiaofeng didn't know how to comment, and it was even more difficult to understand what the Magic Group had done to attract so many Internet trolls, causing him to dare not speak if he wanted to say two good words for the Magic Group, for fear of being besieged by trolls.

can only block the barrage, and focus on the launch of the [Classic Peak Game Console].

Four hours.

The whole press conference, from start to finish, was four hours long.

The first hour of the game is devoted to the features and performance of the game console.

In the next three hours, ten of the best games are introduced.

After watching this rather long press conference, Zhang Xiaofeng actually became more and more excited, and in the end, he had a strong resonance, and he was moved to tears.

Rise.

Purely domestic game consoles have finally risen!

That's right, this classic peak game machine, although the core CPU uses a 90nm process, the fastest computing speed, only 8 million times / second, can be described as extremely backward, but next to the core CPU, there are four picture optimization chips, as well as four NPU intelligent AI chips, with strong AI computing capabilities, which greatly improves the intelligence level in the game process and makes the game more intelligent.

In addition, a 500GB memory chip is integrated inside the host, which can save a large amount of game data for easy optimization, and supports manual and automatic archiving and game screen recording functions to retain good game memories.

And the release of ten games.

RPG character adventure games, sports games, strategy games, air combat games, tower defense games, casual games, love games, card games, etc. are available.

But each one is a boutique, and all of them are very distinctive, which makes people want to play very much.

And because these games are basically games with pixelated characters and scenes, the refinement of the picture is greatly reduced, and the requirements for hardware are greatly reduced, so you don't have to spend a lot of computing power on the texture of the leaves and grass, the shape of the stone and the realism of the ray tracing scene, and you don't need to pursue any 3A movie-level pictures, but put the main energy on improving the playability and fun of the game.

For example, increasing the richness and complexity of the levels, setting more difficulty gradients, and even allowing players to experience the game openly.

Improve the combination of skills and add a restraint mode so that there is no absolutely invincible equipment or exercises.

It is no longer a traditional game mode in which the good guys destroy the bad guys, but you can substitute for different characters, such as the demon king, to play the game, so as to enter the inner world of the villain.

Increase the area of the map, create an incomparably large different world, design thousands of treasures, let players go to collect and explore, so that players can build an empire in the game, which can be as huge as billions of square kilometers.

It also adds an intelligent random algorithm, so that the beginning of each game is randomly changed, NPCs can also be changed, the strongest boss may also appear in the novice village, etc., in short, players are playing tens of thousands, and they can find a different feeling.

It's never boring.

Finally, there are great sound effects, a gamepad that is not easy to break, and an anti-addiction mechanism.

In terms of price, the price of the game console is only 999 yuan, and the price of the game ranges from 30 yuan to 99 yuan according to the size of the content.

I want to buy it.

I want to place an order right away, buy a game console and come back with a few games.

Returning to the live video, Zhang Xiaofeng was surprised to find that the number of viewers in the live broadcast room exceeded three million.

Turn on the barrage switch.

This time, the smearing comments have basically disappeared, and the screen is full of voices like this:

"I'm crying, my dreams, my needs, finally someone has helped me come true."

"Tears, my long-lost feelings are back!"

"I want to apologize for my ignorance, I'm sorry, I saw the sincerity of the Amazing Group, you guys are really making products with your heart!"

"I've been looking forward to such a domestic game console for more than 30 years, and finally a company has made it, thank you, thank you!"

"Support the Amazing Group!"

"Tens of billions of R&D expenses seem to be true, and there are many black technology-like intelligent algorithms in it, which are also very valuable when applied to 3A masterpieces!"

"Technological archaeology but with a lot of innovation is a whole new path! As long as you do it with sincerity and heart, it will be a road to success!"

"Damn,I've long been fed up with those 3A masterpieces that only have more and more exquisite graphics.,It's actually not interesting at all.,[Classic Peak Game Console], I want to play.,I'm going to buy it right away!"

"Where is the purchase address, I want to place an order immediately!"

"My youth is back, even if it's a pixel art game, as long as it's fun and fun, I'm happy to buy it!"

"Place an order!"

"Damn, the first batch of stocks is only 20,000 units, and they have been sold out in a few seconds, so it's too late for me to start!"
