Chapter 293 Forget it, just pretend to be dead
The night passes, Saturday arrives.
【07:30】
A Yi rubbed his sleepy eyes, pushed away the quilt that was unknowingly rolled up in his arms, yawned, and stretched a long way.
He felt that he slept very peacefully this time.
As a member of the trendsetters in the Internet age, the first thing to do when you wake up is to take out your mobile phone to see if you missed any important events.
As a result, as soon as I picked up the phone, I immediately saw a row of notifications:
Alarm clock off reminder, unread messages of live broadcast group, unread messages of iron fan group, unread messages of friends, missed calls, unread text messages...
In an instant, Ah Yi suddenly remembered what he had forgotten!
"F*ck!"
A Yi turned his head abruptly and looked at the camera on the bedside, revealing a distorted expression mixed with shock, panic, confusion, disbelief and many other complex emotions, wanting to smile but unable to do so.
He jumped off the bed in a panic, almost rushed to the computer desk, looked at the live broadcast software nervously, his heartbeat was so fast that he almost felt dizzy.
The next moment, he closed his eyes and leaned back suddenly.
It's over! It's all over!
The live broadcast screen is still facing a crumpled empty bed...
And the number of people in the live broadcast room - 1.5 million! ! !
The barrage is unprecedentedly dense, so fast that it almost leaves afterimages:
"Sleeping Beauty is waking up!"
"Come here! Play music! Dance! Let off a salute! Welcome the anchor to wake up!"
"I never thought that one day I would be waiting for a man to get up!"
"He's still a man who can tap his butt when he sleeps!"
"Who says it's not!"
"People with insomnia, real name envy."
"It's simple, take a screenshot of the buttocks, frame it and hang it on the bedside, so that you can sleep comfortably until dawn!"
"Try Ayi's designated brand Shushui diapers again!"
...
A Yi felt that even when the live broadcast was the best, they were never so enthusiastic!
Early in the morning, 1.5 million people were in a panic, squatting here to watch him sleep and wait for him to wake up? !
Also, what is butt buttoning? !
Are you serious?
"Help! There is no way to stay on this planet!" Ah Yi wailed, and immediately turned off the live broadcast room without thinking.
But even though Ah Yi had turned off the live broadcast, the number of people in the live broadcast room did not decrease at all. Instead, the barrage of "hahaha" jeers flowed across like flowing water.
In A Yi's eyes, it was extremely dazzling!
He mustered up his courage and opened the live broadcast group with trembling fingers, wanting to see if there really was a terrible black history.
As a result, as soon as I opened it, I saw that everyone was posting animations of him scratching his butt...
As if afraid that he would not see it, many people took the trouble to post it again and again, and the more loyal fans they are familiar with, the more diligently they post...
Looking at this scene, it is difficult for Ah Yi to describe his mood at the moment: there is death in society, but there is also luck, in short, it is extremely complicated.
Society's death is doomed, and this animation is likely to accompany his entire live broadcast career.
Fortunately, it is because: in the animation, he is "scratching" his butt, not "sucking" his butt.
The difference of one word makes a big difference!
A Yi closed the fan group, logged in to Lingxi and posted a "cuckoo cluck" message, telling the fans that they want to dove for a day and not wait for the live broadcast.
This immediately aroused great dissatisfaction among the fans, and they all said: "No! Absolutely not!" "If you dare to mutter, I will unfollow you!"
But Ah Yi pretended not to see it.
——In short, pretend to be dead for a day, and avoid the limelight.
However, if there is no live broadcast, do you still want to play "Paradise"?
Ah Yi hesitated for a while, but he immediately had an answer in his heart - play, why not play!
Starting today, there are three appearances that will open a limited-time discount for the weekend. Can you miss it? !
Obviously not!
Quickly wash and eat, and then get on the number!

Yunmeng's repertoire began, and 15 million mirage hosts were put on the shelves on time.
Originally, the sales speed of the Mirage mainframe has slowed down significantly. The previous batch was finally sold out only this Thursday, stimulated by the trailer of "Paradise".
Without the excitement of a new game, it's likely to have to wait until Friday, the day before a new batch of Mirage hits shelves, to sell out.
But today, a miracle happened again——
The sales speed began to explode uncharacteristically, and the inventory quantity decreased by tens of thousands almost every second.
In just three and a half hours, all the inventory was sold out!
——The launch of "Paradise" really activated the market for underage children.
Obviously, many families choose to buy mirages in order to enrich their children's entertainment life.
Don't look at whether children have a penny, but every businessman who has done children's business knows that children's purchasing power is amazing.
And this kind of spending power will also spread along the children's "social network" of comparison.
——"Mom, mom, many students in my class have bought that virtual game console, and we want to go to the playground together on weekends, can I go?"
That's probably how it goes...
This new consumption force, after eating up the hosts that were released this week, has yet to fully unleash its potential.
With the fermentation of the "class social circle", there will probably be another blowout.
So far, Mirage's domestic market share has officially reached the 95 million mark.
Only one step away from 100 million users!
Countless players and the media have noticed this situation, and many media have begun to write articles in advance, preparing to send congratulatory messages to Yunmeng and Lin You at the critical juncture—that is, next Saturday morning.

【14:30】
"Daxia Industry Observation" newspaper, an exclusive interview with Lin You, the founder of Yunmeng, climbed up the hot topic list of Consonance.
The reports about Lin You, a popular fried chicken, have long been overwhelming, and every time a new game is released, it will be pulled out to make a debut.
Netizens, especially players, have long been old.
But this interview still attracts so many readers for only one reason: this is an exclusive interview!
Lin You himself appeared in the media for the first time, and when he appeared, he was an authoritative media such as "Great Summer Industry Observation".
The title is still very gimmick--
"Interview with Yunmeng founder Lin You
——The corrector of the game industry, the upgrader of the prosthetic industry, and the initiator of educational innovation! "
With so many factors combined, how can it not attract attention? !
Zeng Ningshuang obviously put a lot of effort into this report.
It contains not only Lin You's discussion of the "mainstream" and "tributaries" of the game industry.
She also interviewed computer game and home console game production companies, and even found arcade and handheld manufacturers that were already on the verge of being eliminated to conduct interviews and collect evidence.
He also worked tirelessly to find a special group of players with physical disabilities to conduct interviews. As the most well-known player among the disabled, Xia Yi was also interviewed.
All these materials provide a lot of circumstantial evidence for Lin You's assertion that "VR games are supposed to be a branch of the game industry, and withdrawing from the industry's dominant position is a historical necessity".
It also makes this argument more convincing.
But this interview did not end there.
Zeng Ningshuang also briefly described Yunmeng's work system, focusing on describing the state in which Yunmeng employees can devote themselves to work, have enough energy to enjoy life, and achieve an excellent balance between work and life.
Afterwards, several pictures of Night City were released—provided by an enthusiastic reader, Shen Ping.
Seeing this, many players subconsciously felt that this interview should be over, but scrolling down, they couldn't see the end at all!
Further down, Zeng Ningshuang opened another chapter and changed the topic to "Journey Prosthetics Company".
The main content is her interview with Kong Xinsheng.
Kong Xinsheng is not only the entrepreneur of the previous generation of invasive brain-controlled prosthetics, but also the researcher of the new generation of non-invasive brain-controlled headbands.
In addition to dry goods, Lin You made the decision on the price concessions, and the special discounts for retired disabled veterans, which he also explained in detail.
Kong Xinsheng even made a promise: breakthroughs have been made in the research and development of brain-controlled prosthetics needed by the physically disabled, and they will be officially launched soon.
At that time, all preferential policies will be inherited without any discount.
He even used the channel of "Daxia Industry Observation" to appeal to all disabled veterans in need to directly contact Journey Prosthetics Company.
With the assistance of local reporters, they interviewed special education schools that were helped by [Journey Project], and took a series of photos of children wearing headbands and smiling at the camera.
Looks very contagious.
As for the content of the third piece of "educational innovation", it is a bit strange.
From the title, it is obviously very important, juxtaposed with the correction of the game industry and the upgrading of the prosthetics industry.
The first two are obviously hugely impactful things:
The game industry has knocked down the high threshold of VR equipment in one go, expanding the player base by four or five times, and it is still expanding.
The prosthetic industry will also affect a huge group of tens of millions of people and improve their lives to a large extent.
Educational innovation is juxtaposed with these two in the title, but the related content is a bit vague.
Just a broad explanation: Lin You has developed an item that is extremely effective and may fundamentally revolutionize the status quo of Daxia's education industry.
This invention has now been put into use in areas with relatively backward educational resources, and the effect has far exceeded expectations.
It is possible that within the next year, all compulsory education schools across the country will be installed.
Just by looking at the four words "installed all over the country", one can know that this is obviously a shocking news.
But what is the specific invention, let alone photos, there is no text description, full of mystery.
After reading the last section, readers are still confused about the mysterious invention and full of conflicting feelings.
So I couldn't help but start asking the bottom line in the comment area, asking what that "mysterious invention" is, and if anyone is well-informed to explain it.
In addition, the first ones who finished the interview were readers who had followed the "Daxia Industry Observer" newspaper for a long time. Among these people, game players did not account for a large proportion.
Therefore, their first reaction was——
"Are you sure this is a serious interview, not a long advertisement for Yunmeng?"
"Absolutely! Console advertisements, new game advertisements, recruitment advertisements, prosthetic company advertisements, charity advertisements... After reading an exclusive interview, I don't even know how many soft advertisements I have read!"
"Excuse me, how much is the quotation for publishing such a long and in-depth advertisement in the "Daxia Industry Observer" newspaper?"
...
However, this kind of serious news readers' doubts about the "advertising content" were only short-lived in the comment area when the interview was just released.
As this exclusive interview quickly became popular, a large number of new readers soon flooded in.
As a result, the comment area was immediately occupied by countless people eating melons.
——You must know that the people who have benefited from Lin You are far more than just players.
Players, anchors, live broadcast platforms, the disabled, their family and friends, upstream and downstream industries of hosts and prosthetics... and so on!
Even colleagues who received a salary increase from the company because of the rise of Lin You and Yunmeng thanked Lin You in their hearts.
As a result, the comment section of the interview quickly became a gathering place for Lin You's rainbow farts.
Many of the earthy rainbow farts made Lin You blush after seeing them!
Therefore, Xiaomeng rushed here to bubble up at the first time, and recorded these words.
When you have a chance, you must read it sentence by sentence to the master face to face!
