Chapter 136: The Prelude to the War
This difference mainly comes from the clarity of the picture, obviously with the same picture quality, after the update, the Sea City Phantom will be more than a little more refined than before the update, as if it has evolved from 480 to 1080.
The details of each car brand's directly managed stores and cars have also increased a lot, making it look more "realistic" and have better dynamics.
And there is no krypton element in the mirage of the sea market from beginning to end, what krypton gold does a stand-alone game want? Even the online version does not see the Krypton element, but it does provide a function similar to "exchange".
In the new map of the online version, you can make a variety of "trades", including cars, houses, tuning services, accessories, etc., as well as some special items obtained by completing missions, and will be more open in general.
The new game map is called "Underwater City", and you can set off after selecting the character and vehicle information on the stand-alone map "Floating City".
Other players are still looking at the "luxury cars" in their garages in the floating city and sighing:
"This... Is it my car!?"
"! This detail! This workmanship! And this Xinghan 01... It's the official son!"
"! There are even light and shadow effects! The texture of this lacquer water looks so fierce! I'll have a stand-alone meeting to cool it down.,Wow.,This acceleration、The sound is much cooler than before! The map is also much more detailed!"
"Wait! Why is my phone a little hot?"
"His grandmother's! Dropped frames! I've only been using Stardust 1 for two years, and now I'm stuck playing games?"
"And the power loss speed is also too fast!"
Stardust 1 users finally feel a feeling of being "abandoned by the times", in fact, there is nothing wrong with Stardust 1 itself, it is really the update of the mirage of the sea market that has increased the requirements for the chip, and the performance really can't keep up.
At that time, in order to create a smartphone chip, Chen Zifan forcibly "exploded and strengthened" the feature phone chip into a smart chip with more than six times the performance, but this enhancement was only temporary, and the hidden dangers left were very large.
Stardust OS can only be upgraded to version 2.0, and it won't work if it goes up, it's not that Chen Zifan doesn't care about Stardust 1 users, it's really that the chip has more problems exposed in the later stage, but fortunately, it doesn't affect daily use.
Stardust 2, Stardust 3, and Stardust 3+ are much stronger in terms of daily use and games, after all, the experience of using fast charging and non-fast charging is a world of difference, and the gap is even greater than the performance experience.
After a brief experience of the updated stand-alone floating city of the Sea City Phantom, and after choosing their own vehicles, these gamers all poured into the underwater city, and once they entered the underwater city, they seemed to open the door to a new world:
"Xinghan 01, Xinghan 01, or Xinghan 01... Why are they all Xinghan 01? Although this car is the ceiling in the game, it can also be modified in various ways... But it's not enough for everyone, can you have something else?"
"Oh~ There are a lot of sightseeing in Xinghan..."
"This van? Wait a minute! It's not a van, it's here to advertise!"
"It's amazing!"
"But this map is really awesome! You can see floating fish right above... No, it's not floating, it seems like it's water on top of your head, but what is that? Why do some cars run on the ceiling?"
"How does this work?"
"There are people and cars on the ceiling, and people and cars on the ground, so how can the cars on the ground run to the ceiling? Ask in the community... Hiss~ It turns out that there is an ultra-wide runway in front of you to go up."
"Whatever it is! Just play! What other science is there in the game? If I really want to say it, I know that many astronauts' training grounds are in the deep sea, which means that the gravity of the deep sea will become smaller..."
"What a mess! You'd better explain it in a few more books! The gravity of the deep sea is not getting smaller, but... Forget it, why do you really want to play with a game? There can't really be an undersea city!"
"yes... I prefer to believe that people can build cities in the desert and move on the sea
islands, and I don't believe that there will be floating cities or underwater cities."
"You can take a look at the car, the rest..."
"Brothers! Big things are wrong! Let's go to the Xinghan direct store in the game and take a look! They actually got on the new car! I also got two new cars in one go!"
「???」
"What's the situation!?"
Unknown players are still chasing each other in the underwater city, playing bumper cars, or adding friends to drag racing on the city circuit and the ocean track, and the rest have all been killed in the Xinghan direct store in the underwater city.
They didn't think it was anything in the single-plane floating city, but when they got to the online underwater city... It's a traffic jam!
There is a traffic jam in the game!
"I'll him! There is no parking space in the game! The whole street is flooded! It's hard to get into a store! Get out of the way!"
"I can't get out of the car! Blocked! Horse-stepping! It's not just this one Xinghan direct store! Can't you go somewhere else to see? This me!"
"According to my observations, the unlocked map area of Underwater City is at least 20 times larger than that of Floating City, but there are too many players, and there are almost no NCs driving on the road, which seems crowded, so it's not good if it's too real!"
"Big brothers! There's a button to collect the car with one button! Why do you pull over to the side of the road?"
「???」
In the game, you have to park your car...
I have to say that they are also really talented.
After coming to the Xinghan direct store, many people found out what the so-called "new car" is, a class coupe called Xinghan 001, which looks smaller than Xinghan 01, and does not have a strong sense of luxury in Xinghan 01 technology.
There is also a cruising locomotive called Xinghan 009, which is a model they have never seen before, let alone seen, not even a locomotive with a similar design, and the appearance looks so strong that the sense of science and technology is so strong that it explodes.
Combined with the price of the two cars...
"Xinghan 001 starts at 185,800 yuan..."
"Xinghan 009 starts at 35,800 yuan..."
"! Good T is cheap!"
If it is just in the game, the two new cars on the Xinghan direct store may not cause any repercussions, because these two cars are a bit too "close to reality" compared to the cars in other racing games.
But with Xinghan in front, everyone dare not underestimate these two products, and many people think that with the performance of Xinghan 01 in the game, the difficulty of Xinghan Zhixing to perfectly reproduce it is overwhelming.
When Xinghan's popularity has skyrocketed and there is a faint trend of becoming a "national car", some people speculate that Xinghan Zhixing will launch an "intermediate model" to balance the gap between Xinghan and Xinghan 01.
Not many people cared about it at the time, but now... The appearance of Xinghan 001 is an official announcement in disguise, and it is not secretive, and all the parameters and configuration levels of Xinghan 001 are directly exposed.
Although it is not as outrageous as Xinghan 01's high-tech configuration and luxury, Xinghan 001 inherits a lot of Xinghan 01's configuration, and its price is not so outrageous, which is a range that many people can "accept".
"185,800 yuan, if the purchase tax is exempted and the first year insurance is exempted, 185,800 yuan will land... It seems to be a good deal! Doesn't that Xinghan direct store provide a 60-installment installment loan? It seems like the money is okay to pay back every month!"
In addition, there is also a "ultra-low" cruising locomotive Xinghan 009, 35,800 yuan, less than the price of a Xinghan to feel the pleasure of "loading" in the city, enjoy 400 kilometers of wind and freedom...
I didn't look down on the Wind Shadow - War Fire before, and all the motorcycle guys who thought that War Fire was a "ghost fire special car" were excited, after all, they were also older, although there was a need for outfits, but the imitation race was really not suitable.
Haicheng also prohibits motorcycles, electric motorcycles are currently only one or two can be selected, and the rest are some horizon manufacturers, the products launched have no safety guarantee, and no brand after-sales, and can not meet the needs of installation.
Now well, Xinghan 009 just fills this gap, and its comprehensive cruising range even reaches 420k in the parameter introduction
The range level is already about the same as that of the Polestar X with a 40kh battery.
What's more, Xinghan 009 also has fast charging, and the domineering and chic riding posture makes a lot of players love it, and immediately waved it: Buy it!
Ahem, buy in the game...
Anyway, the funds in the game are worthless~ Completing a few exploration tasks casually, and running a few easy city tracks can quickly earn back, which also gives them a deeper understanding of Xinghan 009.
For example, the riding posture -
Everyone in the mirage of the sea market can customize the height and appearance of the character, but they will not pinch their faces like a certain easy game, and as a result, many players have not entered the game for more than half an hour.
In this way, players can adjust the height of the game character accordingly according to their height, whether it is when test driving a sedan or a motorcycle, there will be an intuitive reference, saving a lot of trouble.
A cruise car like Xinghan 009 obviously belongs to the type that takes all from 160~190, more than 190... Over 190 bikes will look small no matter what kind of motorcycle you ride, unless it's some specially modified model.
Originally, Chen Zifan wanted to promote Xinghan 001, but the popularity of Xinghan 009 was much higher than that of Xinghan 001, from games to the Stardust community, you can see topics discussing Xinghan 009 parameters everywhere.
At present, the ban on motorcycles is a trend, as the influence of Haicheng continues to rise, it has further promoted the ban on motorcycles in major cities, in fact, Haicheng is not banning motorcycles, but fuel motorcycles, and they want to reshape the rules.
This is also the main reason why new energy motorcycles with green cards can run on the main roads in Shanghai urban area, while fuel motorcycles with yellow cards will be fined and detained as long as they are found.
Every day, many people shout "unfair", but when has the world ever been fair?
At least Haicheng will not extinguish everyone's hopes, making them feel that their lives are meaningless, like the tireless screws on the machine, in this city, they can always find opportunities if they want to.
Not to mention anything else, the owners of the Xinghan modified cars who go out to sell things, as long as it does not affect the normal passage of vehicles and pedestrians, no one will care at all, and there are even special people responsible for giving them permits.
One day, the number of cars in Haicheng is too high, and when new energy vehicles and traditional fuel vehicles form a direct confrontation, I am afraid that the ban is not motorcycles, but fuel vehicles.
But they will definitely not ban it all at once, and they have to take their time, starting with restricting license plates, then starting from environmental protection standards, kicking out all substandard cars, and finally encouraging the purchase of new energy vehicles...
It can be said that Haicheng is the perfect foundation for the development of Stardust Technology, what you want, what you want, what you want, and what Stardust Technology can't do if you want to.
As soon as the two models come out, what Polestar X, Polestar G... They all had to be flashed aside, and even Haicheng TV was making special advertisements for the two models, and for a while, the popularity of Xinghan Zhixing rose again.
The people who were still complaining that Xinghan Zhixing was robbed of the limelight by Polestar cars have all shut up, what is stealing the limelight, as long as Xinghan Zhixing's new energy vehicles are announced, there is no car with low attention. c
Xinghan 009 due to design, configuration, price and other factors, so the popularity will be relatively higher, but a little knowledgeable know that electric motorcycles are not important, the important thing is Xinghan 001 car.
As soon as it was announced in the mirage of the market, it means that Xinghan Zhixing is going to officially start a war with the traditional fuel vehicle market, and several car companies that were clamoring not to care before have been studying this car in the mirage of the sea market overnight.
The more they studied, the more uncomfortable they felt:
"It's only the end of September, and Xinghan Zhixing has exposed two models in advance... And judging from the game, the two models are already very complete in all aspects, and it seems that they are rushing to the launch of the Stardust conference next year!"
"Xinghan 001 is different from Xinghan, it already poses a direct threat to us! It's not a parallel Polestar X, and you can see how attractive they are."
"There are very few car companies in China
can build a family car of 150,000+, and they can't give it for another five years, but Xinghan 001 sword is on the wrong side... The new energy vehicle market is now a blank slate, and they have pricing power!"
"If they are allowed to develop like this, as long as Xinghan 001 is mass-produced, we will lose the opportunity to enter the field of new energy vehicles, and even if we launch a product, we will have to spend a lot of energy to be recognized."
"Who approves?"
"Consumer Recognition, Market Recognition..."
"Shall we, then?"
"It's not up to us to decide now, and I hate to admit it, but we'll have to wait!"
"Wait? Can we afford to wait?"
「……」
Either cooperate or self-develop, but if you continue to choose to wait... Chen Zifan wished that they would do this, just to leave more time for Xinghan Zhixing.
As soon as Xinghan 001 and Xinghan 009 are exposed, next month will be the launch of Polestar X and Polestar G, as well as the promotion of taxi versions and bus versions.
As long as at the beginning, with the current execution of Haicheng officials, the original public transportation system can be replaced in half a year at most, of course, it is not enough to have a car, and the transportation route of Haicheng needs to be re-planned.
Chen Zifan is not good at this, so when Haicheng officially invited him, he was just going to go through the motions, and when he was done, he would let the transformation of two products that improve the efficiency of road repair be handed over to his father's Xinghua Zhixing for production.
