"Beside the surging river and the long Grand Canal, this Wudu is prosperous and full of youth. Hey, little girl, I have traveled here and thought about it for a long time, but I don't know how to describe the beauty of this Wudu..."
"Why does it sound so familiar? It seems like the lyrics of a song, right?"
"It's Youjing, Shumiao, you plagiarized!"
"I want you to take care of it!"
"You're traveling to Beijing. It's a good time for the occasion. Can the beauty sing a song?"
"Don't, don't, don't let her sing, I'm afraid I'll spit out the food I just ate!"
"Xiaoyu, why are you like this? Your singing is a little out of tune."
"Are you out of tune? You are tone deaf. You can sing Du Shiniang like a pig butcher..."
"Hate!"
On the deck of the luxury yacht, Du Shiyu, Xia Miaomiao, Chun Ge, Qiao Shan and the rich second-generation ship owner who are fans of Chun Ge, had just enjoyed a delicious "River Banquet" in the middle of the beautiful river, and then took the yacht
Walking along the river, blowing the warm river breeze, admiring the picturesque scenery on both sides of the river, I feel relaxed and happy for a while, and I just feel like a fairy.
From a distance, we can see the outline of Shiye Island and the huge water-based cultural festival performance site built on this island in the middle of the river. We can see several helicopters hovering at low altitude, and the heavy metal structures suspended by steel cables are like building blocks.
are placed in increasingly larger facilities.
A group of river swallows flew by, and many yachts, fishing boats, and small boats came from upstream and went upstream. The lights in the evening were twinkling, and the river reflected them, like a Milky Way ribbon, stretching to the end of the world.
The skyscrapers on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have begun to preview the light show. A large number of tourists and citizens walking along the riverside crowded in the best viewing positions, holding mobile phones and cameras, noisily waiting for the start of the light show.
Yanjing didn't know what the situation was like, so he said that Wudu's picture of a prosperous age was definitely not bad.
Under the repeated teasing of the rich second-generation shipowner, Xia Miaomiao was "hard to refuse the hospitality" and "reluctantly" sang a song about traveling to Beijing.
Sing a song, everyone is shocked, the rich second-generation ship owner can no longer lick the dog, his face twitches, the words he prepared are stuck in his throat, and he cannot say them out.
Qiao Shan nodded and said, "That's a good singing, but you can't sing it again next time!"
Xia Miaomiao was a little embarrassed and asked unconvinced: "Is it really so unpleasant?"
Brother Chun had a mean mouth, pointed at the flying Jiang Yan with a wicked smile, and chanted: "vomit, vomit, startled a group of gulls and herons!"
"You want to die!" Xia Miaomiao was furious and used her hands to tear off Brother Chun's face. Brother Chun fled behind Du Shiyu and said repeatedly, Shumiao, why can't you hear nice words? I am praising you.
Du Shiyu held back her laughter and jumped away, not letting Brother Chun touch her. She walked a little further away, took a sip of red wine, looked at the picturesque scenery on the river, her eyes were divergent, and she was immersed in it.
That's fine, except there's a nasty fly next to it.
"Little rain..." Of course, flies are able to find opportunities. The rich second-generation shipowner came up to him in a gentle manner, holding a wine glass, leaning against the side of the ship, and posing in a pose he thought was very handsome, to seduce the girl.
"Let's talk about what happened in Canaan. I heard that you were the first beta tester. How did you get such good luck to get the first batch of helmets?"
I have no choice but to reach out and not hit the smiling person. Besides, you are still on someone else's boat, so you still have basic courtesy.
Du Shiyu explained how she accidentally joined a group of "game trustees" and how she muddleheadedly paid 98 yuan to qualify for the first test.
"This is really... tsk tsk... even luckier than winning the Mark Six Lottery!" the rich second-generation shipowner sighed, and then began to tell how he had exhausted all means and tried every method. Starting from the second test,
Not to mention player qualifications, not even a single tourist...
Du Shiyu listened out of politeness and found an opportunity midway to use the restroom as an excuse to take a break.
The rich second-generation shipowner shifted his target to Xia Miaomiao and flirted with her in various ways.
Xia Miaomiao didn't have Du Shiyu's good temper. A few words didn't sound right, so she asked directly: "After talking for a long time, what do you do?"
"I have nothing to do. I just hold the title of director in the group company I own. I eat, drink, and play around every day. There's not much else. I just make a lot of friends."
"Do you have those... uh, friends?"
"Most of them are in the entertainment industry. I was going to open a movie studio. My dad gave me 400 million in pocket money and told me that after I lost money, I would go home and work with him."
"400 million, tsk tsk!" Xia Miaomiao said, not knowing whether to mock or marvel.
"Actually, the entertainment industry is not that big of a deal. If you look closely, those celebrities are just ordinary people. They are just packaging. Let's just say Miaomiao, you are no worse than them. You are still a player. What do you think? Are you interested in pursuing a career in the entertainment industry?
I'm not bragging, I can get all the first-line resources..."
While they were talking, the yacht with beautiful flashing lights had already approached Jiangxin Island. Looking closer, they found that one of the venues being decorated looked particularly familiar. Du Shiyu just happened to escape from peeing, and Xia Miaomiao was also flirted with by the rich second generation.
I became a little impatient, so I pointed to the facilities under construction and asked, "Look, does it look familiar?"
Brother Chun was slightly drunk, and he was trying to recite a poem to express the comfort and satisfaction at this moment. However, there was no more than two ounces of ink in his stomach, and he was feeling uncomfortable. Hearing this, he took a deep breath, took a closer look, and felt happy.
: "Murloc Lakeside!"
"Yes, it's by the Fishman Lake!"
Veteran players of Murloc Lake are familiar with it. It used to be a place for spawning monsters and dropping treasures. During the trial test, there were more and more similar game maps, and the number of Murlocs was gradually disappearing.
Despite this, it is also a very famous game map. The safe zone built around the lake is a prosperous place second only to the main city of the system. Because of the beautiful scenery, it has gathered a large number of casual players. If the system had not
The 'real estate ban' on the game map is released, and players can build a city voluntarily wherever they want.
Without the fishmen, the fish-man lakeside does have a picturesque scenery. The facilities of one of the main cultural festival venues arranged on Jiangxin Island vaguely restored the fish-man lakeside, together with the "illegal buildings" above.
This is just one of them. Could it be that the cultural festival in Wudu wants to copy all the famous game maps online?
Just as a venue?
This is really a big deal.
The small island in the middle of the river that was being renovated had piers, rocky beaches, woods, shrubs, ditches, etc., and various lighting equipment was under intensive construction. Xia Miaomiao asked a passing construction ship and found out that this small island
The island has become one of the stages for performances. On the opening day of the cultural festival, flash mobs will be used to jump on various similar stages to show the cosmic cultural atmosphere of Wudu to audiences across the country and the world.
Wow!
"Xiao Yu, is this what the school told you for us to participate in?"
"It should be!"
Wow!
"What should we do?"
"It should be a true performance."
"True performance? Just play your own game character?"
"Um."
Wow!
"Then I must go and see, Miaomiao, is your character in the game as beautiful as she is in reality?" The rich second-generation shipowner came again.
Qiao Shan on the side whispered to Brother Chun, "Are you just watching?"
Although Brother Chun was slightly drunk, his mind was indeed sober. He whispered disdainfully: "Don't worry, Miaomiao won't like it."
Qiao Shan asked knowingly, "Why?"
"He looks like that, like a skinny monkey."
"They are rich"
"Money?" Brother Chun sneered.
"Okay, money can't buy you, and you have to be a star. Don't all girls like this?"
"None of this works. Miaomiao wants to be a star. It's very simple. Just be like me. Look at her... this girl is very realistic and very motivated. She has the heart of a professional gamer."
"Hey, hey, why don't you move forward? How dare you know that your family is out of luck?"
"I can't help it. When I play games, I just want to relax. I don't want to be so tired, and I don't have such a strong determination to win. Miao Miao must not like me anymore."
The yacht will not be allowed to go any further and can only go back the way it came.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, and the light show officially started. First, dazzling lights cut through the night sky, and then a huge fountain stirred up thousands of water columns, changing into various forms under the dazzling lights, and a rain fell in mid-air.
, unable to stay still on the deck, everyone returned to the semi-open-air upper cabin and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, admiring the picturesque scenery.
Along with the light show, there are thousands of drones rising like fireflies.
The stands on both sides of the river were crowded with people, and countless exclamations gathered together, adding to the heat of the early summer night. However, it was indeed cool on the river. In the eyes of the audience on both sides of the river, the small yacht seemed to have become part of the picture of this prosperous age.
This night, I returned home exhausted.
The morning after the server was stopped for update, Du Shiyu and Xia Miaomiao took the school bus and participated in the rehearsal of Wudu's "Yuanverse Canaan Cultural Festival". They met a very famous director and got their own
Script.
"Wow, are you really playing a character in the game?"
Xia Miaomiao flipped through the script and found it very interesting, "Is it really based on the daily life in the game?"
"Isn't it said above?"
"Where is Chenxi Town?"
"I heard there is a geopark in the development zone."
"Then let's go to the rehearsal in the afternoon?"
"I don't want to go. Didn't I say it above? There's no need to be deliberate. Just do whatever you want online now."
"Go, go, go and have a look, there is nothing to do if you stay here, Xiaoyu"
"Go, go, don't cry bored when the time comes."
At Xia Miaomiao's instigation, the two participated in the afternoon rehearsal.
Just like the Fishman Lake on Jiangxin Island, an extremely realistic Dawn Town has been erected in a corner of the Geopark. Professional actors play NPCs, and players and tourists are like real people.
You wouldn’t know it if you didn’t look at it, but you would be shocked if you saw it. Hubei Province said it would take full advantage of its numerical advantage in players and tourists, and thought it was bragging, but it turned out to be true.
Almost thousands of real-person players and tourists gathered here, received their own in-game "costumes", and took turns putting on makeup at a construction site-like makeup scene. In addition to them, there were also followers from various regions, counties and cities below.
service staff.
In order to allow these special talents whose "time is precious" to come and support us, a lot of efforts have been made. For the purpose of "showing off wealth", and also to launch the first shot of the planned Yuanshi Industrial Park, the province has spent a lot of money.
The determination and strength of the implementation means that Wudu University has been mobilized. Du Shiyu just doesn’t want to come today. The school leaders will also do her job, saying that they want to support local economic construction, support their hometown platform, contribute their talents, and so on.
Anyway, it was time to stop updating the server, and Du Shiyu was also infected by the hot atmosphere at the scene. In the dressing area of Wudu University, he received his in-game ‘equipment’, which was separated by a wooden board, and he put it on.
After putting on the costume, listen to the instructions from the loudspeaker and rush to the birth point.
In fact, there is no need to remind you. The player on this road is not familiar with it. Xia Miaomiao has already arrived and is chatting with Brother Chun and Qiao Shan with a smile.
"Why didn't your second-generation rich fan come?"
"He doesn't have a ticket."
"Last night I wasn't bragging. I couldn't get a single admission ticket even if I had any relationship or called the leader uncle or uncle."
"You're bragging, you won't have to pay taxes anyway."
"How can anyone say that about his fans?"
"I'm not familiar with him..."
"Okay, I'm going to burn bridges across rivers. I just enjoyed the warm reception and turned my back on them..."
There were no lines and no script. The director said it would be acted out as it was in the game, but no one took it seriously. They all gathered together with people they knew, like Xia Miaomiao, to chat and fart. The whole fake performance scene was noisy.
Yeah, you can't even hear the person on the other side talking if you're so close.
The electric loudspeaker started shouting hoarsely again, but neither the players nor the tourists took it seriously. Seeing the commotion, the director started to curse. For more than an hour, nothing came out.
There was no other way, nannies from all over the place were allowed to enter, and they served the players and tourists, so that they could be separated from their acquaintances, and started to operate according to the usual online process.
"Should I close my eyes, or should I!?"
Xia Miaomiao was very excited. She stood at the birth point and nervously pulled her best friend's sleeve and asked.
"There's no camera facing you, why are you so nervous!"
"How fun it is. Let's go pick up the mission together later, and then go kill monsters, quack..."
"Hey, are you two okay? There's someone waiting behind you!"
"What are you urging me to do? Seriously, I think I am the protagonist."
"I didn't hear the director say that everyone is the protagonist, the protagonist of the stage, the protagonist of life, the protagonist of the game. The theme of this performance is - each of us is the protagonist!"
"Let's go, let's go. No matter what the noise is, we don't care when."
The two walked out of the teleportation point and gave a decent performance, as they usually do online. Since it was a true performance, it didn't require any acting skills, so everyone acted very real and natural.
What they can't see is that countless cameras are filming in hidden locations, recording this super-large reality show from the beginning of the preparation and rehearsal.
This is valuable material, and it also demonstrates the profound heritage and software and hardware conditions of Hubei Province as a major province in the metaverse.
…
On this day, I returned home completely exhausted.
