Chapter 136: An Unexpected Harvest
Guo Mo was distressed.
It's not because of money, he is not short of money, although the live broadcast is not particularly popular, but it is no problem to earn money to support his family.
The root of his distress is ......
Tianba Studio's new game, that is, the game "Love Staff", he has been playing for so long, but he has never met the right person.
Isn't that right?
Doesn't it mean that you can find a partner by playing this game? Why has he been playing for so long and has not gained anything at all?
At first, he thought it was his bad luck. But later, after an in-depth discussion with the sailors in the live broadcast room, he found out that it had nothing to do with luck, it was purely that the game matching pool was too shallow.
Due to the gender imbalance of gamers and the prominent problem of yang and yin decay, the players who find objects in the game are always a minority.
Really a minority!
With hundreds of thousands of players, it's impossible for everyone to find a favorite object and then talk about a sweet and greasy love, right?
It's not possible and it's not realistic!
Even if "Love Staff" is really so magical, no matter how powerful the matching mechanism is, it is impossible for hundreds of thousands of people to find an online dating partner at the same time.
Most players play this game with the idea of engaging in online dating......
The same is true for Guo Mo.
But after playing, I realized that I was not the lucky one at all, and there were no players of the opposite sex in the matchmaking pool who were very similar to me.
"Xiao Mo, why don't you forget it?"
"Let's just say, I really can't meet the right person, and it's not bad to follow the essence of the game to find a paper man to talk about love!"
"That's right! You've been playing for months, you should die for it, right? ”
"Starry Sky Emperor, activate!"
The old viewers in the live broadcast room all felt that Guo Mo still got nothing after stumbling on this game for so long, and normal people should have given up a long time ago.
Although "Love Staff" has sold millions of copies on all platforms, there are only hundreds of thousands of active players. Excluding male players, who account for 77%, how many players of the opposite sex can meet the conditions?
If you can't find it, you won't look for it!
Although this game is quite magical, it is not the only solution to get rid of singleness, if you want to find a partner, there are other ways, why do you have to stumble on this game?
"Makes sense......"
After soaking in the game for several months and never meeting the right person, Guo Mo was indeed a little cold, and he also recognized the analysis of the audience in the live broadcast room.
It's time to put it down!
In fact, this is a matter of fate, his fate has not arrived, and Zhang Pengfei's fate has arrived, so the circumstances of the two are very different.
"Listen to you, from tomorrow onwards, I will uninstall this game, and broadcast "Star Emperor" live in the future, don't think about those ethereal things."
Guo Mo sighed.
Zhang Pengfei's post gave him too many unrealistic fantasies, and also rekindled the yearning for love among many people, including him.
But it turns out that the game is just a game after all, and he doesn't deserve love.
It's also good to stop losses in time.
At least he can still figure this out, unlike some people who are stunned when they play this game, and they spend at least 18 hours a day soaking in "Love Staff" 24 hours a day, just to meet the person who is "not sure if it exists".
Be reasonable......
This is really to blame Zhang Pengfei!
His post is really inspiring, and it also makes too many people yearn for envy.
But the reality is cruel, the number of players in "Love Staff" is limited, and the matchmaking pool does not support so many players to find White Moonlight or Prince Charming.
"Let's have one last play!"
Guo Mo, who decided to withdraw, also let go of the obsession in his heart, no longer had any illusions about love, and simply enjoyed the game.
Don't say it!
After letting go of his obsession, Guo Mo suddenly found that there are actually many things worth exploring in this game.
Pseudo-Open World!
Although with the word "pseudo", it is not an open world in the real sense, but it is enough to show that the degree of freedom in the game is really high.
"There is one thing to say."
"Although I didn't find a partner, I felt quite compatible with these game friends I met before......
Guo Mo flipped through the list of friends, only to find that he hadn't really found nothing in the past few months.
There are few friends of the opposite sex, but there are many like-minded buddies. Although these good buddies are just friends in the game, they really have an appetite for him, and there is a feeling of seeing each other late.
If you encounter this in reality, you have to worship a trick and become a brother with a different surname!
Suddenly lost these friends, to be honest, Guo Mo was quite reluctant.
It happened that most of them were online, so Guo Mo sent out invitations one by one, asking them to come to his world, planning to talk about it and leave a phone number or contact information.
In this way, even if you don't play this game in the future, you can keep in touch when you look back, and you won't lose these "compatible" Internet buddies.
"My real name is Guo Mo, a contracted game anchor in Thunderbolt, you can just call me Xiao Mo, go back and add a WeChat friend, I will post it on the public screen......"
Before Guo Mo's words were finished, an exclamation came from the voice channel: "Guo Mo? Is your father's name Guo Zhenghui? ”
"Huh? How do you know? ”
A game friend was able to accurately say his father's name, which made Guo Mo a little surprised.
Could it be an acquaintance?
"That's not a coincidence! I'm Guo Qingwen, I often went to your house to play when I was a child, do you remember? ”
"Qingwen?"
Guo Mo didn't remember who this was at first, but he quickly reacted, this is not his clan brother from his hometown!
In his hometown village, the surname Guo is a big surname, and although everyone is not the right person, they actually have a very close relationship.
Guo Qingwen often played together when he was a child, the only son of an uncle's family.
Although many years have passed, Guo Mo has forgotten the appearance of this childhood friend. But the two of them are real friends, good friends who have been playing together since they wore open crotch pants.
"Are you Guo Mo? Do you know Yuhua Primary School? I'm Feng Renyong! ”
"Yuhua Primary School Feng Renyong?!"
Being able to meet his childhood playmate in the game has shocked Guo Mo. What he never expected was that one of his friends was a classmate in elementary school.
Immediately afterwards, several of the remaining people also identified themselves.
One is the cousin of Feng Renyong's wife, and the other is Guo Qingwen's college classmate......
It's been a long day, and it's all acquaintances!
It's just that these acquaintances are all connected by Guo Mo, a key figure. If you don't blow up your identity, everyone won't guess each other's identities.
"it!"
The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned.
What kind of magical matchmaking mechanic is this? None of Guo Moga's game friends were actively added, and they were all players who were automatically matched by the game system.
Everyone thought it was a stranger.
As a result, as soon as I said my name and identity, I found that I had been engaged for a long time, and it was all various acquaintances or related people.
"Oh no!"
Guo Mo called five friends to come over to chat, four of them are all kinds of acquaintances, maybe they haven't met, but they can also get involved.
But why didn't the fifth gaming friend speak from beginning to end?
"Dude, you can't be me too, or an acquaintance they know, right?"
"It's not!"
The friend said embarrassedly: "I don't know you either, the only thing in common is probably that my surname is Guo, I don't know if this is a coincidence?" ”
"That's a coincidence!"
After learning that this fifth friend was not Guo Mo's acquaintance, or someone else's acquaintance, Guo Mo and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
OK!
This is most likely just a coincidence, and the matchmaking mechanism is really not smart enough to be this point.
But just as everyone continued to chat, they unexpectedly learned something.
That is this friend who is also surnamed Guo, who is actually a child adopted by his parents from an orphanage, and his adoptive father is not surnamed Guo.
"That's a coincidence!"
Guo Qingwen said: "Guo Mo should also remember, there was a child lost by Guo Dacang's family in our village, and he couldn't find it, so he should be about the same age as you......"
"Seems to be the case."
Guo Mo thought about it, and there was indeed such a thing in his memory. In terms of age, it does match the number, but it's really not so coincidental, right?
"Really? Where is the Guo cannon you were talking about now? Can you leave me a phone number, and I'll go back and ask him? ”
"No problem."
Guo Mo and Guo Qingwen didn't think much about it, they just felt that there was a high probability that they were not the same person, after all, they were thousands of kilometers away, how could there be such a coincidence?
But it doesn't hurt to give it a try.
After the self-exposure of the previous people, the magic of the matching mechanism has been fully verified, what if it is really the same person?
Two days later, Guo Mo told the audience through the live broadcast that there was the latest progress in this matter, and he was about to meet offline for parent-child verification, and it seemed that the two were really the same person.
When the inspection report came out and it was determined that it was the same person, Guo Mo's live broadcast room was boiling.
This matter also spread all over the Internet.
Countless people are amazed by the magical matching mechanism of "Love Staff", how can this all be matched together?
Soon!
Other players also took turns to prove that the matching mechanism of this game, not to mention the opposite sex, the proportion of acquaintances of same-sex players is indeed very high.
A player from Han Jiang Province posted in the community that through the game "Love Staff", he actually collected the contact information of half of the class when he was in elementary school.
How did you collect it?
He himself has a few classmates and friends from elementary school, and these friends also have several other elementary school classmates and friends......
What a surprise!
You must know that after more than ten or twenty years, the former group of playmates and good friends have long been scattered all over the country, and many of the contact information have been lost.
It's a miracle that everyone was able to get back together through a single game!
"Are there many such examples?"
The cross-provincial recognition of relatives and the reunion of primary school classmates in Guo Mo's live broadcast room gave Chen Ba a new understanding of the matching mechanism of "Love Staff".
But he also had a doubt.
Isn't there more than one instance of this? It shouldn't be! The player base is so small, there shouldn't be so many acquaintances!
"Not much, rarely!"
Yang Dong shook his head and explained: "But another phenomenon is quite common, that is, people from the same unit, company, group and school are easy to match together. ”
“???”
Chen Ba had a question mark on his face.
What kind of strange mechanic is this, and can the system still identify the unit, company, group, and school to which the player belongs?
How did the strangers who said they were socializing become mature people?
"It's not all acquaintances......"
Yang Dong thought for a while and said: "It's still that logic, it will be matched according to the fit and hobbies." But is it possible that people with similar interests are actually close by? ”
You like to skateboard, so you probably know your skateboarders around you, and it's clear that you can talk to them.
Is this considered an acquaintance?
"What if I like to travel and drive, but I don't have friends around me who have the same preferences or interests?" Xiao Lu interjected.
"Then you'll be matched with strangers."
Chen Ba frowned and explained: "But this situation is relatively rare, after all, your conditions are too harsh, how can you not have a friend around you who can talk?" ”
"To put it another way, I have this kind of friend or acquaintance, but he doesn't play Love Staff, so I still match strangers?"
"Yes!"
Chen Ba nodded, and then said, "I understand what you mean!" What you actually want to say is that using "Love Staff" to find a partner is actually overkill, and the real purpose is to find like-minded people? ”
Finding a partner is secondary.
The biggest role of the matchmaking mechanism of "Love Staff" is actually to allow players to expand their social circle and meet more like-minded friends.
And this kind of like-minded friend may be close to you, but you don't usually notice it, or you don't think about it at all.
These incidents exposed on the Internet just prove one point.
The matching mechanism knows yourself better than you, and you are obviously like-minded and have friends around you, but many people fail to find out, but need the matching mechanism to discover.
"What do you mean?"
Xiao Lu was confused when he heard it, what does it mean that the matching mechanism understands yourself better than you?
"It's not so much that the system matches acquaintances, but rather that they match good friends who I don't usually have much contact with, but actually have great development potential."
Chen Ba explained: "If there is no match, will you notice these acquaintances around you who know each other but have little intersection? ”
"Won't ......"
"That's it! There is no problem with the matchmaking mechanism, and it is not a priority to assign acquaintances. ”
Chen Ba figured it out.
This is a deliberate assignment of acquaintances, this is clearly an excellent matching mechanism to tell you: the crowd is looking for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, that person is in the dim light!
Guo Mo and Guo Qingwen are acquaintances.
But how many years have they not been in touch? Who would have thought that they would talk like this? Who would have thought that the most suitable friend would be him?
If it weren't for the game "Love Staff", most of these two would never have crossed paths again.
There is no doubt that it must be so.
didn't match together, didn't reveal their identities, they shouldn't be able to say a word in the next few decades, let alone find out that they missed a buddy who was so compatible.
From this point of view, most players such as Guo Mo, although they didn't find a target, they didn't find nothing?
