In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.
He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...
Back at the shop, Zhao Youming and Qian Feng had already started their battle, while Ye Wu was pacing back and forth, looking for a fun game.
"Play as you like, no game coins needed yet, unlimited coins, unlimited respawns."
Lin Yifeng distributed the stools and smiled as he let the group play freely!
Arcade games from the 1990s.
It was more appealing than computer games and mobile games of later generations.
Because in this era, games were a truly rare commodity, and almost all game developers in the world were concentrated in Japan, with very few from other countries.
Even the world's superpower, the United States, is far inferior to Sakura in terms of game development.
Meanwhile, domestically...
Forget about it. In 1992, there were very few manufacturers of pirated products in China.
Therefore, arcade games are very attractive, especially to young people.
Young people in future generations may develop electronic erectile dysfunction from playing too many games.
But in this day and age, there is absolutely no such thing as "electronic impotence"!
No matter how many people play arcade games, they can never get enough.
Aside from Lin Yifeng and his six companions, they quickly became engrossed in the flashing arcade screens and roaring sounds. Lin Yifeng, who came against the tide, had little interest in arcade games.
This old man, Deng, has played far too many games.
The current arcade games, whether in terms of graphics or gameplay, are not enough to attract Lin Yifeng.
Lin Yifeng watched the group roar with utter boredom. He recognized them; he knew these six were children of high-ranking officials.
If you didn't know better, you'd think he was some spendthrift son addicted to games.
"What pen name should we choose for Bai Yejin to write martial arts novels?"
"How about choosing Huang Yi's name?"
"No, Huang Yi is very popular right now."
"Let's choose an anonymous name?"
"How should I put this pen name?"
"Those who don't understand what 'anonymous' means might think he's very impressive for writing so many articles."
"Those who understand what 'anonymous' means... will look down on you in their hearts."
Lin Yifeng's thoughts had long since wandered off to who-knows-where.
"I founded Lin Ye Culture Games Company, which is my surname plus Veronica Yip's surname."
"How about using the pen name Lin Bai?"
"Lin as in Lin Yifeng, and Bai as in Bai Yejin!"
"Lin Bai doesn't sound very good."
"How about Bai Lin?"
"No, no, no!"
"Madame Bailin is quite famous."
Lin Yifeng thought and thought but couldn't come up with a good pen name, so he decided to let Bai Yejin choose one herself.
"I'll draft the outline later and have Bai Yejin write it. If she's good at it, I'll start a magazine or a novel publication and make Bai Yejin my top lieutenant!"
"Although I can't write, I've read a lot of novels."
"Moreover, so many online novels from later generations can be used as references in this era!"
"even....."
"Qigong is so popular these days. If I were to do something mystical or superstitious, would anyone actually believe it?"
In the 1990s, everywhere was hot except for Tokyo.
There's a craze for going abroad, for qigong, for airplanes, for satellites, and even for oil.
After accomplishing the feat of trading canned goods for airplanes two years ago, Mu Qizhong now spends his days researching how to launch satellites.
Of course, launching satellites was only one of Mu Qizhong's "researches." This "legendary" figure also researched how to blow up the Himalayas, how to tile the Great Wall, and how to install elevators in the Himalayas.
Besides Mu Qizhong, there's Wang Hongcheng who can turn water into oil, Wang Lin who can revive severed snakes, and Zhang Baosheng who can telekinesis...
Scams and tricks of all kinds are rampant, like a swarm of snakes dancing wildly, wreaking havoc on the world.
Lin Yifeng genuinely felt that if a novel like "A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality" were written in this era, some people with no sense of reason might actually believe it to be true.
Just like some people believe that "How to Be a Bad Guy" is true.
......
From around 8 a.m. until after 1 a.m., this group of children from the compound finally ended their arcade gaming adventure.
As they left the shop, the group was still excitedly discussing the actions and plot they had just witnessed. Zhao Youming was even debating with Qian Feng about who was stronger.
Well, Lin Yifeng really didn't know who was stronger between the two of them.
For a while, he went out for walks and strolls, so who knew who won and who lost.
"Old Lin, Old Lin, when is your arcade going to open?!"
"Exactly!"
"The graphics are much better, and the controls are fantastic!"
"Romance of the Three Kingdoms 2 is much more fun than the first one."
"The second generation is definitely better than the first. After playing the second generation, I don't want to play the first generation at all!"
The group unanimously agreed that Lin Yifeng's second-generation game was much more fun than its predecessor.
"It will probably be in July, but I can't be sure exactly."
In July, state-owned enterprises will be auctioned off. When Yan Bingshan acquires the state-owned enterprise's store, he will be able to open the arcade himself.
"It won't be until July?"
"Hiss, how can we still not be sure?"
"Yeah, give me a straight answer! I still want to play console games!"
Why is it taking so long?
Seeing that Lin Yifeng only opened the arcade more than a month later, the few people who were really into the game were getting a little anxious, especially Zhao Youming from the Industry and Commerce Bureau, who wished that Lin Yifeng would open the arcade the next day, and then buy a color TV and install the console games.
Lin Yifeng smiled but didn't respond to these words. He was about to suggest going for some skewers and drinks before calling it a day when Ye Wuzheng unexpectedly suggested, "But we don't have a shop, do we?"
