One day, Yu Sangzhi received a message from a hoodlum classmate: "Brother Feng wants you to go to the small grove by the north gate after school!" "Brother Feng" was Huo Feng, who s...
Huo Feng wore a simple and decent black casual suit, while Yu Sangzhi beside him wore a simple and clean white casual suit. The two people wearing black and white also had an inexplicable feeling of wearing couple outfits.
Around them, there are naturally students coming and going paying attention to them
However, everyone just took a few more glances or took out their mobile phones to take a few photos, and did not disturb their interview.
In fact, it is common to see people carrying cameras around to conduct interviews on the Tsinghua campus, and it is not uncommon for Tsinghua students to accept interviews from outsiders. In addition, Tsinghua also has its own public relations student department.
Therefore, Huo Feng is not considered to be high-profile.
Interviewing reporter Liu Lian asked Huo Feng many questions that he had prepared in advance, and Huo Feng answered them fluently.
"In fact, there is a question that all netizens want to ask, which is when you designed the idea of 'Let's Take the College Entrance Examination Together'. Did it come from your personal experience or was it just a fantasy?" reporter Liu Lian asked Huo Feng.
"Well, if I say this is my personal experience, many netizens might think I'm exaggerating or even lying to promote the game. However, this is indeed my personal experience."
Huo Feng nodded cheerfully, his aura simple and calm. "My high school classmates and teachers all know that during those three years, I pursued the goddess next to me to the point of madness."
The goddess Yu Sangzhi beside him gave him a look with a disgusted expression.
Yu Sangzhi knew without thinking that Huo Feng must be going to bring up the fact that she disliked his poor grades in high school.
Reporter Liu Lian asked with a smile, "So, this is your personal experience. Then I would like to ask on behalf of the majority of netizens, in high school, was it really because your girlfriend despised your poor grades that you studied hard and got into Tsinghua University?"
"That's right."
Huo Feng laughed and said, "Actually, when I first started high school, I wasn't focused on studying. I was in Class 7 at the time, and we ranked over 600th in our section on the baseline exam, completely at the bottom. And she was in Class 1 at the time, ranked first in our section, and also topped the city on the high school entrance exam. The story was pretty much like the beginning of an idol drama. She was giving a speech on stage as a representative of the freshmen, and I was watching from the audience, and I fell in love with her right away."
Reporter Liu Lian laughed, "So it was love at first sight too."
"yes."
Huo Feng nodded and smiled, "My first reaction at that time was that I would marry her in the future. There is another key point, that is, my father was her homeroom teacher in high school. She had a clear goal at that time and was determined to get into Tsinghua University. My father was also very optimistic about her. He would mention her at home from time to time, saying that she was very outstanding, very smart, and very well-behaved. The more I listened, the more I wanted to marry her. So I didn't wait long before I went to confess my love to her. The result was just like the game setting. She rejected me and said that she was not ready to fall in love until college, unless I could go to the same university as her. And then, um..."
A word "hmm" represents everything that comes after it.
Reporter Liu Lian was also amused and turned to interview Yu Sangzhi next to her, "So, why did our goddess make such a request to him at that time? Did she really hope that he could go to the same university as you, or did she just want to scare him off?"
Yu Sangzhi smiled faintly and shook his head. "I was still young in high school and really didn't plan to have a relationship during those years. But he was very persistent at the time. Actually, it was a bit annoying. He had his friends block me downstairs of the dormitory early in the morning, after school at noon, after school in the afternoon, or after evening self-study. He always found different ways to block me. I don't know where he got the address from back then, but he suddenly came to my house uninvited and greeted my mom. In fact, I was a little annoyed by him at the beginning. It was really to reject him that I deliberately said that he had to get into Tsinghua University to pursue me to stop. As a result, he found another way to ask me for tutoring. I was embarrassed to refuse others asking about schoolwork. After one or two times, I gradually got used to him."
Huo Feng pointed a finger at Yu Sangzhi and said to Liu Lian, "She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. She's actually very soft-hearted. At that time, in order to help me improve, she would make new study plans for me every once in a while. She would arrange the order of the ten subjects in the college entrance examination and give me a thorough review. I would go to her house every weekend and go to the library every other day. During summer vacation, winter vacation, and even the Spring Festival holiday, she would urge me to study quickly."
Liu Lian smiled and said, "So, in fact, you two already had feelings for each other in high school, and Tsinghua University was just an excuse to get in touch with each other?"
"no."
Yu Sangzhi shook his head. "It wasn't so much the reason we were in contact as it was a shared goal. High school has a strong academic atmosphere, and the college entrance exam determines the next 10 years of one's life. So, when he set his sights on Tsinghua University, I saw how hard he was working, and I wanted to do my best to support him. Tsinghua was a serious goal, and our three years of high school were essentially constant efforts towards it. It's fair to say that as we worked hard, we grew closer and closer, and gradually opened up to each other. Later, we started dating after the college entrance exam, and everything just happened naturally."
Listening to her description, Huo Feng raised his head proudly and said, "Not bad."
Liu Lian continued, "So, the prototype of the story of the game Let's Take the College Entrance Examination Together is you two. So how did you come up with the idea of writing your own story into a game?"
Huo Feng looked serious at this question, and he replied, "This is my first time starting a business, and I'm prepared to accept failure. When I designed the game "College Entrance Examination Together", I had only one thought in my mind: whether I fail or not, this is a gift for her. Designing the story between her and me, letting her play it, or letting her experience it, will have commemorative value. For example, even if this game doesn't sell well, she and I can still take it out and revisit it ten or even dozens of years later. So, everyone is playing a game, and she and I are playing with emotions."
Yu Sangzhi beside him nodded silently, his face slightly red.
“It turns out it’s a gift.”
Reporter Liu Lian couldn't help but feel envious from a personal perspective.
The interview was going on smoothly. However, at this moment, in a corner, there were two pairs of eyes staring at this side.
