After last night's New Year's Eve party, Zheng Li felt a little tired.
He and his classmates went out for a meal in the evening, came back and watched the school's New Year's Day party for a while. Finally, around midnight, he counted down the New Year's Eve with thousands of people in the school's main square. Later, he was dragged to a KTV to wait for his return.
It was almost four o'clock when we arrived at the dormitory.
He slept in a daze for a while and didn't get up until eleven o'clock at noon. He just opened his eyes and touched his phone, and then he remembered that today is the day when [Morning Star] is released!!!
Zheng Li had finally managed to reserve one, but luckily Lu Tiao ordered it through a lottery, which prevented scalpers from increasing the price.
He estimated that according to the delivery speed, he should receive it in the afternoon.
Although there are currently different opinions on the evaluation of this device, whether it is a boast, everyone does not believe it, or whether it is a slander, even those who have not played the game cannot believe it.
Zheng Li still decided to believe Lu Jian.
The price of a [Morning Star] is 3,000, which is already relatively expensive among game consoles. Compared with more than 1,000 handheld consoles, it is much more expensive to switch devices at will. Compared with those high-performance new
The price of the first-generation console is also similar.
Fortunately, Zheng Li was interning during the holidays and had saved some money from his usual part-time job, so he was able to buy a piece of equipment without hesitation.
While waiting for the goods to arrive, Zheng Li wanted to read reviews online.
But after searching, he found that there were very few new reviews, and the same ones on the Internet were still the same.
And when I clicked on new reviews, they were all simple unboxing operations, only showing the appearance and packaging. Those reviewers said they would try it out, but there was no reply.
"What's going on?"
Zheng Li's heart was itching, and he felt uneasy about going on a spring outing soon, but he didn't know whether the destination would be a dilapidated park in the city or a newly opened large amusement park nearby.
He went to the cafeteria for lunch and forgot what he ordered. He was distracted all afternoon and didn't know what to do while sitting in front of the computer.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, his roommate began to ask him to go to the cafeteria with him. Zheng Li responded and checked the delivery message on his phone. He still went downstairs and ordered a meal of meat and vegetables at will, and just took a few bites.
, Zheng Li’s cell phone rang.
When he looked up, he saw it was a courier. His hands shook and his phone almost fell into the plate. Zheng Li hurriedly answered the call. The little brother told him to pick up the courier outside Xiaonanmen. Zheng Li stood up immediately.
"Why, what's so urgent?"
The roommate was still struggling with the fried chicken legs in the cafeteria. When he saw Zheng Li's delirious state, he asked.
"I have express delivery."
Zheng Li said as he was about to leave the canteen.
"You haven't eaten yet?"
The roommate glanced at the sweet and sour short ribs on Zheng Li's plate.
"I'm not going to eat anymore. You can eat and collect the plates for me later."
Zheng Li immediately let go and ran away. Several roommates were not polite and raised their chopsticks to carve up all the meat dishes on Zheng Li's plate.
He hurried to the small south gate and took a look and found that there were mountains of express delivery here.
These express delivery boxes are all square cartons, exactly the same size. A rough count shows that there are at least thirty of them.
There is no doubt that these are Lu Jian’s [Morning Stars].
"What are you buying? It's been a long time since I've seen so many of the same items in one place."
Zheng Li seemed to be the first to sign for the express delivery, so the courier boy asked casually.
"...game console."
Zheng Li thought for a while, and instead of talking about VR helmets and virtual reality, he summarized the easiest to understand statement.
"Oh, is it fun?"
The younger brother asked.
"I haven't played this yet."
Zheng Li pointed to his express delivery.
"Too."
The younger brother laughed at himself and said again.
"What brand of game console is this? I'll look back and buy one for my son."
Zheng Li used his mobile phone to read the description of [Morning Star] to his younger brother. The younger brother felt confused.
"Is today's technology so advanced? Can this machine play Super Mario?"
His concept of game consoles may still be stuck in the era of Famicom.
"I don't really understand either. Anyway, let's go back and give it a try."
Zheng Li said goodbye to his brother, and happened to see other people coming to pick up the express.
The two big men looked at the boxes in their arms and smiled shyly, feeling as if they had bought something shameful and been caught by the other party.
Zheng Li hurried back to the dormitory, but his roommates had not returned yet.
He opened the box and saw a pure black box.
The workmanship of this box is quite good. It feels almost like a complete cube from the outside, with a cold light on the surface.
Zheng Li found the place to open the box. He opened it and saw a piece of cardboard with a pattern of a starry sky printed on it. Zheng Li had never seen this starry sky before and didn't know where the picture was taken.
He opened the cardboard and saw the helmet lying inside.
Zheng Li couldn't wait to take out the helmet and looked at it carefully.
This helmet looks like an ordinary motorcycle safety helmet. The design is quite good. There is a hidden socket on the side of the helmet, which can be plugged into a conventional interface data cable such as USB or TYPE-C. In addition, Zheng
Li didn't even find the charging port.
Does this thing charge via the C port?
Zheng Li quickly discovered that there was something like a base under the helmet. He hurriedly opened the manual and found that it was a wireless charging base.
This helmet also charges wirelessly.
According to the instructions, this design is to prevent players from becoming addicted to the game and playing for a long time.
When the helmet is out of power, it must be placed here to charge, and you cannot play during this period.
Zheng Li thinks this design is a bit stupid. How can any game console prevent players from becoming addicted? Those game console manufacturers want players to always turn on their phones, never turn them off, and sit in front of the TV to play games. How can they take the initiative to prevent players from becoming addicted?
Zheng Li did not rush to put on the helmet, but read the instructions carefully.
The instruction manual was very serious, explaining in detail how to use the device, how to connect to the Internet, enter games, etc., but the content was really outrageous, and Zheng Li wanted to laugh when he looked at it.
For example, the manual states that in order to prevent accidents, the impact of [Morning Star] on player perception is set to the [Normal] level by default. Users who want an in-depth experience must be connected to the Internet to enter the [Deep] level.
, and when exposed to tactile stimulation from the outside and obviously noisy auditory signals, the game will return to the [Light] gear.
This is so serious, as if you are really completely immersed in the game, and you can't even hear it?
Zheng Li didn't believe it at all.
Since the initial settings required Internet access, Zheng Li sat on a chair and put on the helmet with the power turned on.
Then, he spoke the activation password.
"Link, start."
Countless colors of black filled Zheng Li's field of vision.
