Chapter 924: The beginning of the mech craze!
Daniel will be so righteously indignant because he doesn't understand the true battery life and depreciation speed of the mecha.
But this can't be blamed on him. Who told Lin You to suspend the live broadcast because "I'm tired"?
The amazing performance of this mech in front of the camera is not cheap——
It burns not only energy, but also its own service life!
That's why Lin You didn't care about money, and the mecha was purchased for nothing, so it was so ruthless to use it.
Before there is a major breakthrough in basic material science, the lifespan of the mecha will be a problem, unless it is left there after it is done.
Of course, if there is a major breakthrough in materials science, there will be a metal material with higher strength, lighter weight, stronger toughness, and the best price within a reasonable range, then there will definitely be a big change.
But to be reasonable, unless Lin You plans to hold a "mech battle" in reality, there is really no reason to build more mechas...
However, these things were only known to Lin You, He Peng and the engineers of the machinery factory.
Not to mention the audience far away in America, even the audience around the scene didn't know the details. They only cared about taking pictures with excitement on their faces.
As a result, everyone misjudged the power of this [Crimson Storm] quite a bit.
Mr. President of America couldn't help asking the technical officer again, and urged the Ministry of War: "Hurry up!"
Because under his social network account, thousands of citizens are calling on him to hurry up and build the "America's own mecha" that he promised.
Netizens don't care about the performance of this thing in actual combat, they only care about "others have it, we have it too!"
Not only in the comments section of the president's account, but also on the entire social network, [Mecha] is currently the hottest topic.
Under this popular keyword, [America's own mecha] is naturally recalled by netizens.
The topic that was forgotten because of the national parade before has once again returned to the center of attention of netizens!
But what is different from before is that the irony and ridicule of the president has been greatly reduced, and at most it is just a joke about "making a strong free publicity for Yunmeng's new game".
More voices turned into urging instead.
After seeing the exaggerated performance of [Crimson Storm], everyone suddenly felt: If this thing can really be made, it seems acceptable to spend a little more money.
The War Department, keenly aware of the changing winds, was busy writing reports.
They want to describe this mecha a little more scary, and then boast about Lin You's scientific research ability and the possible future development speed of the mecha, and then...
Apply for another grant!
*
Not only America, [Mecha] is becoming an out-and-out hot word on the Internet in countries all over the world at an astonishing speed!
There are countless netizens who petition their own country to build a few mechas.
Of course, there were also many people who couldn't wait at all, and started booking air tickets on the spot, planning to travel to Xiajing.
——Not only overseas, but also netizens from many provinces in Daxia have begun to book air tickets, planning to fly to Xiajing for a [Mecha Theme Tour]!
This [Crimson Storm] is about to become a global internet celebrity check-in point!
But Lin You didn't care about this, he didn't even think much about the arrangement after the mech's debut.
At this moment, he was working wholeheartedly with the engineers of the machinery factory, checking the overall condition of the mech after his "wild" operation, to ensure that the next "performance" could proceed smoothly.
...
...
Next, Lin You performed two more "performances".
——Although it is still a test in name, it is already a performance in nature.
Regardless of the record-breaking number of viewers in the live broadcast room or the densely packed live audience outside the cordon of the test field, they all have the mentality of watching the performance.
After the first test, everyone is full of confidence in this big guy.
In fact, this is indeed the case: the next two rounds of tests of [Crimson Storm] all ended perfectly, without any problems.
Because Lin You would take a two-hour break every time the test lasted less than half an hour, so when all three rounds of tests were over, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and there were only two hours left before the official release of "Pacific Rim".
Lin You didn't do any more fancy work, but unexpectedly had someone dismantle the outer cordon and let all the onlookers in.
The mecha is placed here, you can look at it casually, touch it casually, and take a group photo as a souvenir.
Except that it cannot be opened or damaged, there are almost no restrictions on the rest.
Such a move undoubtedly made the audience overjoyed. One by one, they rushed to the front like a race to watch this huge creation full of industrial and sci-fi aesthetics from a close distance.
The live camera has also become a fixed angle of view facing the [Crimson Storm], leaving the audience to appreciate it slowly.
The audience in the live broadcast room could only howl and envy and hate at the same time.
Lin You and He Peng quietly disappeared from the scene.
Although Lin You hadn't had enough fun yet, the performance of the mech was up to this point, and there was no target for him to fight, so he could only stop here.
What's more, the official release of "Pacific Rim" is next, and he can't miss this critical moment.
As for He Peng, after getting the most comprehensive test data of [Crimson Storm], he had to go back to the research institute and hold a meeting with his colleagues to analyze it.
I have to say that the actual performance of this mech is far better than he expected! Well done!
Even Lu Wei, who was not there, received a call from the director of Xia Jing Culture and Tourism Bureau, hoping that he could help introduce Lin You.
...
...
As the release time of "Pacific Rim" approaches, the number of participants in the [Chinese Proficiency Test] in the virtual world has also reached an unprecedented peak.
Obviously, the overseas players who failed the test are still dying, trying to make a last-ditch effort.
Probably because of the non-stop exams, it played the effect of "sea of questions tactics" in disguise, and the number of players who successfully passed the test began to blow out.
But both Lin You and the members of the "Pacific Rim" development team are very clear: this number is far from enough.
Compared with the previous masterpieces, the first-day sales of "Pacific Rim" will definitely drop significantly.
But everyone also has enough confidence: as time goes by, more and more people pass the test, coupled with the progress of the overseas [rehabilitation program], these sales will definitely be able to make up for it.
In the last 5 minutes, the number of people in Yunmeng's official live broadcast room began to drop precipitously.
Obviously, the players began to calm down and make final preparations.
Then there is——
【14:00】
"Pacific Rim", officially launched!
The price is Yunmeng Dazuo's standard 500 yuan, without any change.
But the participants of the [Rehabilitation Therapist Program] can also enjoy an additional 15% discount!
But only in summer.
Because the game has been developed, participating in the overseas [Rehabilitation Program] at this time is no longer helpful for game development.
Of course, the Yunmeng point rewards given when participating in the plan, if used to purchase "Pacific Rim", are not a low discount.
— provided they pass the test and are eligible to buy...
Big Xia players don't have so many worries. The pre-download of the game has been completed three days ago, and it is enough to pay quickly to enter the game at this moment.
In the virtual house, Ayi is gearing up to log in to the new game.
"Come on, let me see who is going to die this time!"
Thank you [Crazy Yiwen 122] for your reward.
