Chapter 254 You can play games at work
The news that Zhang Wei won the Fields Medal came back to China. The mainstream media reported it, but as Zhang Wei himself expected, there was no publicity. Too big a wave.
Because at this time, the focus of the domestic media is on that man.
On July 12, 2006, Liu Xiang broke the men's 110-meter hurdles world that had been dormant for 13 years in the final of the men's 110-meter hurdles at the IAAF Super Grand Prix Lausanne with a time of 12.88 seconds. record. Wrote the most glorious page for Chinese sports!
Liu Xiang’s achievement is definitely of great value. In the history of Chinese sports, I dare not say that he is the first, but he will definitely be ranked among the top three.
At the Athens Olympics two years ago, Liu Xiang won the gold medal, which was a major breakthrough in Chinese sports. At that time, Liu Xiang was already the darling of the media. Now that he has broken the world record, all the spotlight has naturally been on Liu Xiang, and other news has Become dim and dull.
With the news about Liu Xiang breaking the world record, who would pay attention to other things?
What is the Fields Medal? Not many ordinary people know. When reporting on the news about the Fields Medal, we must first educate readers about what the Fields Medal is.
In this era where the high school admission rate is only 40%, the undergraduate admission rate is less than 30%, and high school mathematics is still the most failed subject in college. If you give a mathematics award to popular science for the common people, it is estimated that many people will fall asleep after seeing the beginning. It’s on!
It is obviously thankless to do news about Fields Medal. There is no gimmick in the news about Liu Xiang breaking the world record. Even if there is a row of railings on the track, you can still tell who is faster and who is slower!
As a result, news about Liu Xiang dominated the front page of newspapers for many days in a row, and various media and experts came to take advantage of the news. The fact that Zhang Wei won the Fields Medal can only be revealed in the technology sector or the education sector.
The same is true on TV. The news spent a lot of time reporting on Liu Xiang. From the game process to the post-game interview, CCTV alone broadcast it several times. Zhang Wei's Fields Medal only deserves a "Please watch the text message below."
This is not because the country does not pay attention to scientific research. It is actually that scientific research is too far away from ordinary people.
There was no self-media at that time. Now, there is a breakthrough in the field of scientific research. The owner of self-media UP immediately made a video to explain things clearly.
In 2006, reporters probably couldn’t figure out what Mersenne primes did. How do you ask them to explain it to readers?
Are you asking journalism students to explain mathematics? Stop it! If they were good at mathematics, would they still study journalism?
Zhang Wei is not impressed by this result. It is normal for scholars to attract less traffic than celebrities and athletes. What's more, this is Liu Xiang at his peak!
Take mathematics as an example. Apart from Hua Luogeng and Chen Jingrun, how many mathematicians do ordinary people know?
If Peking University’s Wei Shen hadn’t been in the self-media era, who would have known about him?
If you study mathematics, go to a mathematics competition. Even if you win the championship, if the self-media does not follow the trend and report it, who will know about you?
On the contrary, as long as the self-media is willing to follow the trend and gain popularity, even if it only takes a place in the preliminaries, it will be known to people.
Even in today's self-media era, how many mathematicians can we ordinary people name who are in their prime?
But entertainment stars or athletes, who can’t name a few popular ones?
Someone asked me to name a Chinese football player. For such a difficult question, I could think of Wu Lei, and other popular athletes in popular sports could not come up with it without asking.
There was no self-media in 2006, so scholars could not compete with celebrities and athletes for popularity, let alone top athletes like Liu Xiang.
Although science and education are said to rejuvenate the country and technology is the primary productive force, it is difficult for ordinary people like us to intuitively feel the power of scientific research.
Some people often say that scientists have worked hard for decades, so it is better to live broadcast by Internet celebrities. Then there was a series of this pill and that pill, and then a bunch of reflection monsters exploded.
However, for most people, daily life is tiring enough. Following a drama, watching a live broadcast, or watching a game are already the cheapest pastimes.
At this time, people are still worried about the country and the people, and they have to reflect. I feel that the mountain of life is not heavy enough. Do you want to add two more bricks?
……
After returning to China, Zhang Wei accepted several exclusive interviews. However, as public opinion focused on Liu Xiang, the interviews did not stir up much waves. They were only praised in academic circles, and the media stopped looking for Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei was happy to have some free time. First he had a meal with Wang Xing and learned about the development of the school network.
In the past two months, the development of the school network has been progressing step by step. No new content has been launched and no mistakes have been made. The number of users is growing steadily, and the money to rent a server is enough. After all, in 2006, prices were low, and it was not easy to burn through $1 million.
Then Zhang Wei went back to Weiguang Technology. The development of the new web game "Three Kingdoms" is nearing completion, and Yao Xiaoguang is contacting for advertising and posting recruitment information to hire people to serve as support.
The game content of the Three Kingdoms is much more complicated than the previous Three Kingdoms Legend, so the trustees hired this time must undergo training in advance to familiarize themselves with the game content.
Moreover, the Three Kingdoms of War has a guild function. When the time comes, two trustees can each establish a guild, and the two parties compete to stimulate the bosses in the guild to spend money. These are all important aspects of training.
Zhang Wei tried out "Three Kingdoms" and felt that it was pretty good. It was better than he imagined. After briefly making a few suggestions for modifications, he became a hands-off shopkeeper again and threw away all the trivial matters. Yao Xiaoguang.
After arranging these things, Zhang Wei planned to return to his hometown in Qinhai.
This summer, the capital is also very hot. Now that it's summer vacation again, why not go back to the big villa on the beach in your hometown, where it's 26 degrees, the sun is shining, the sea breeze is blowing, and you read a book. In the evening, two kilograms of fresh beer from the second factory will make the day more comfortable.
……
It’s a hot summer day and I have no intention of working.
This is the case with Kong Xianglin. Although he is a white-collar worker in an office and has air conditioning, whenever he looks out the window and feels that the earth is being burned, he cannot concentrate. Can't get excited about work.
Fortunately, his work is not heavy. When he is not busy at work, he can often catch fish. It doesn't matter even if his colleagues see him. As long as he is not discovered by his boss, there will be no big problem.
At this time, Kong Xianglin, who had no intention of working, started to fish again. He opened an excel document. On the surface, it looked like he was checking a form, but in fact, his fingers were placed on the ALT and TAB keys. With a tap of your finger, you switch to the novel website of Qidian.com.
Reading novels is very suitable for fishing at work.
The novels Kong Xianglin was following were "Evil Wind Song" and "We Are the Champions", and he quickly finished reading the latest chapters.
But I still don’t want to work!
“What should we do? Why don’t we read the news.” Kong Xianglin opened the web page out of boredom, preparing to go to the portal website to read the news.
On the homepage of Hao123, a line of red words instantly attracted Kong Xianglin.
“You can play games while working.”
Seeing this slogan, Kong Xianglin, who was at work, instinctively clicked on the link. After a short load, the four characters "Three Kingdoms" appeared on the screen.
Of course there is also a picture of the greasy senior sister designed by Kim Taehyung.
Senior Sister Greasy’s eyes were full of affection, and her body proportions were even more terrifying. Although she was an animated character, Kong Xianglin couldn’t help but take a second look.
As the registration interface popped up, Kong Xianglin instinctively entered his account password and completed the registration.
After entering the game, there is the most basic game tutorial, which teaches players how to build a city, how to recruit troops, how to recruit generals, how to send troops to fight, how to use items, etc.
Kong Xianglin is not a newbie in gaming. He has also been exposed to some games. After some tutorials, he is already familiar with how to play the game.
Finally we reached the last step of the tutorial, and an information box popped up:
"Please set a boss key."
"What is the boss key?" Just as Kong Xianglin was confused At this time, a new prompt has appeared under the information box:
"The boss key is specially designed for office workers. Its main function is to instantly hide the game window through the set shortcut keys. When the player is playing the game , the boss conducts a surprise inspection, and can instantly hide the game window with just one click, and at the same time turn off the system volume. After the danger is over, press the shortcut key again to restore the hidden game window.”
After reading this prompt, Kong Xianglin roughly understood the meaning of the boss button. He thought for a while and pressed A in the boss button setting box. From then on, button A became Kong Xianglin's boss button.
After the boss key was successfully set, there was another prompt: "Press the boss key to hide the game window. Press the boss key again to restore it."
Kong Xianglin directly pressed the key on the keyboard. Press key A, and the game window disappears instantly, leaving only the EXCEL table on the desktop.
"Is it one-click minimization?" Kong Xianglin looked at the task bar at the bottom of the screen. There was no task box for "Three Kingdoms".
“Not minimized!” Kong Xianglin was full of curiosity. He minimized the EXCEL table again, and there was no game interface on the desktop.
"It's really gone!" Kong Xianglin pressed button A again, and the game interface instantly returned to the screen.
“It’s amazing! This design is great. Press a button and the game interface will disappear completely, not even the taskbar below. Even if the boss comes to look at my screen, he can’t find that I am playing. Game.”
Kong Xianglin tried it a few more times and found that this function is really easy to use!
When you play games in the office, you are most afraid of being discovered by your boss. Even if it is not during working hours, your boss will feel grudge when they see a game on your screen.
Now with this boss button, you can play the game without anyone noticing!
For those who fish for work, this function is simply a magical tool!
Let’s not talk about whether this game is fun or not. This function alone is very suitable for office workers like Kong Xianglin.
So, for a whole afternoon, Kong Xianglin was addicted to the game. Occasionally when the leader came over, he only needed to click the keyboard, and instantly he changed from a fishy Kong Xianglin to a hard-working Kong Xianglin.
In the end, even the leader couldn’t stand it anymore. I saw the leader stretched, stood up, and walked around the office as if to stretch his muscles. When he walked to Kong Xianglin, he found that Kong Xianglin was staring at a data report seriously.
Looking at the taskbar of the computer again, except for the EXCEL icon, there are no other programs running, not even a browser open.
"Xiaokong, it's been all afternoon, and I haven't seen you drinking water or going to the toilet. You've just been staring at the computer. Why don't you get up and do some exercise!" the leader said with a smile.
"Thank you, director, I will finish reading this report right away!" Kong Xianglin said.
“Young man, you are capable!” The director nodded with satisfaction.
No matter how efficient the work is, just talking about the work attitude, there is really nothing wrong with it!
As soon as the director left, Kong Xianglin immediately pressed the shortcut key.
“Huh? There is a Sun Ce in the tavern. This Sun Ce’s commanding ability is so high, and his force value is also very good. He is awesome. He must be recruited.
Recruiting Sun Ce turned out to be You need treasures, 200 Luminous Pearls. The Luminous Pearls seem to require a quest, and it’s a quest that requires spending ingots to complete!”
Kong Xianglin hesitated, but still couldn’t bear to part with Sun Ce.
Then go for Yuanbao!
...
After collecting some gold ingots, Kong Xianglin recruited powerful generals and equipped them with equipment to improve their attributes.
Then I went out and fought a few battles. I felt very good and I was very good.
Clicked on the ranking list and after flipping through a few pages, Kong Xianglin also saw his ID.
At this moment, the private message icon flashed, and a player sent him a message.
Kong Xianglin opened the letter and saw that a player had invited him to join the guild. The name of the guild was Juyi Villa.
Kong Xianglin clicked on the guild rankings again and found that Juyi Villa ranked third on the guild rankings.
"After joining the guild, the construction speed, recruitment speed, and general attributes all have bonuses! This must be added!"
Thinking of this, Kong Xianglin joined the invitation without hesitation .
Soon, a pop-up box appeared on the interface. It was a member of the guild, inviting him to join in a mission to defeat Karasuma.
Kong Xianglin readily agreed, and together with several guild members, completed the task and obtained a gold treasure chest.
“We formed a team to complete the mission, and there was a gold treasure chest? I remember that this gold treasure chest cost two gold ingots in the mall! Joining a guild also has this advantage.”
Kong Xianglin clicked on the treasure chest and got an opportunity to throw a feast.
"There will be a big feast, and a red general will definitely appear in the tavern! I want another red general!" Kong Xianglin was ecstatic.
As a result, Kong Xianglin couldn’t wait to invite members of the peer group to prepare for more tasks.
However, he was rejected. The other party thought he was too weak and was unwilling to take him to complete difficult tasks.
Kong Xianglin suddenly went into EMO!
To recharge money, you must continue to recharge money!
After brushing up on some awesome generals and updating their equipment, someone finally took Kong Xianglin on a mission.
At this moment, another private message was sent. Kong Xianglin opened it and saw that it was a letter from the guild president.
"At eight o'clock in the evening, there will be a guild battle. Our guild will face Xiaoyao Pavilion! If we win, there will be a reward."
Kong Xianglin clicked on the guild list and saw that Xiaoyao Pavilion was ranked fifth.
“The ranking is not as good as ours, we will definitely win!” Kong Xianglin signed up decisively.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the guild war started. Juyi Villa, where Kong Xianglin was located, defeated Xiaoyao Pavilion. Kong Xianglin also obtained some treasures, which can be used to recruit generals.
The president of the guild was more generous and gave Kong Xianglin a Lu Su.
Immediately afterwards, the president sent another message: "Tomorrow night in the guild battle, our guild will fight the Heaven and Earth Club. If we win, we will be second. Brothers are all here!"
"Boss, I Definitely coming!" Kong Xianglin replied immediately.
At this time, Kong Xianglin suddenly felt excited. Although it was a web game, the feeling of killing legends and attacking Sabak seemed to be back!
"Would you like to collect some more gold ingots and upgrade your equipment?"
Imagine that the guild boss is so kind to me and just gives him generals. Wouldn't it be a shame if he doesn't upgrade it? he.
So Kong Xianglin readily clicked on the recharge page.
......
In a certain rental house, there was a row of computers, and there was a young man sitting in front of each computer.
"Tomorrow is the guild PK between the two of us." One of them said.
"I know, I have done all the mobilization before the war. I have sent messages to everyone in the guild. I guess many people are busy filling up gold coins now." Another person said.
The top guild presidents in the server are actually shills specially hired by Weiguang Technology.
Each of them controls several guilds and directly engages in guild wars with each other every day. From time to time, they send gifts to members to encourage them to participate in guild wars.
PK is the game method that is most likely to arouse players’ desire to become stronger. If you want to become stronger, just top up your money!
At this time, another person walked into the room: "The boss just said something, asking each guild to set up a QQ group. It's best to include all the guild members in the group. We should send messages frequently in the future. You have to let them see the information about some awesome generals and equipment upgrades before they are willing to top up the money!”
……
Kong Xianglin joined the guild’s QQ group.
The QQ group is quite lively. Some people teach how to match troops, some teach how to complete tasks, and some directly call people to form a team.
Of course, the most irritating thing is when someone shows off the attributes of a military commander.
"How about me, Zhao Yun?" A screenshot appeared in the QQ group.
Kong Xianglin was shocked when he saw this screenshot. Zhao Yun’s attributes are so awesome!
Immediately afterwards, this person took another screenshot to show off a wave of equipment.
"The green sword, silver armor, and white dragon horse are all inlaid with level 3 gems. This equipment is awesome!" Kong Xianglin was filled with envy.
“Look at my Lu Bu!” Someone else sent a screenshot.
Someone immediately replied: "Fang Tian painted a halberd, a red rabbit horse, and a beast-faced head-swallowing chain armor. This Lu Bu is invincible!"
Looking at these generals, Kong Xianglin suddenly I feel that my few generals are all crooked.
At this moment, Kong Xianglin was deeply stimulated.
“No, I have to update the generals, I have to upgrade the equipment!”
Kong Xianglin clicked into the recharge interface without hesitation.
