"Let's go, Brother Sheng, Happy New Year..."
"Happy New Year and have a safe journey."
"Bye Director Gu, see you after the New Year..."
"See you after the New Year. Say hello to my uncle and aunt for me."
"Wait for me to come back and bring some tea cakes and other things. I'm leaving first, Brother Sheng..."
"OK, Happy New Year."
“…”
In the blink of an eye, the end of the year is approaching.
Follow the Golden Wind holiday notice arrangements.
Starting from the first day of the Lunar New Year, all development data of the Titanfall project was forcibly sealed, and all employees of the project department began their vacation and did not return to work until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. It was a full seven-day vacation without taking advantage of the Sunday and no compensatory leave.
As for the Operation and Maintenance Department, because it needs to deal with some online issues, it adopts a rotation system, offers triple pay for working on holidays, and allows working from home.
Of course, it’s said that we have a holiday on the first day of the New Year.
In fact, starting from New Year's Eve, Shen Miaomiao waved her hand and began to let people go:
"Oh, it's a waste of time to work on New Year's Eve. It's time to go home, go home, go home!"
So, by noon, most of the people in the company had already left.
Everyone came to say goodbye to Gu Sheng and went home happily to celebrate the New Year.
For a moment, the usually noisy company became quiet.
Only the voices of the three brothers were heard in the director's office.
"…Do you have any more dipping sauce? Give me some more."
Gu Sheng sat on the sofa, used dumplings to wipe the dipping sauce in the vinegar dish and put it into his mouth.
"No buddy, you drink the dip?"
Lu Bian was speechless. Together with Dajiang, he shared some of the dipping sauce in his small plate with Gu Sheng.
The three of them ate dumplings together.
This has been a regular activity for the three brothers every year since they met in college.
In fact, rather than saying that the three of them ate dumplings together, it would be more accurate to say that Lu Bian and Dajiang accompanied Gu Sheng to eat dumplings.
Because of the two of them, even if they didn't have lunch, their family would be waiting for them in the evening, and the whole family would happily have the New Year's Eve dinner.
But Gu Sheng is different.
He has no family, his household registration book only has one page, and Kha'Zix has a passive habit all year round.
Gu Sheng always makes fun of himself with such hellish jokes.
But every time they heard it, Lu Bian and Dajiang couldn't laugh.
They couldn't understand how Gu Sheng had survived all these years alone.
The only thing they could do was to have a meal with Lao Gu on New Year's Eve every year to liven up the atmosphere and make him feel less lonely when he was alone on New Year's Eve.
After the three of them had their fill and chatted for a while, they set off to send Dajiang to the station.
After waving goodbye, Lu Bian and Gu Sheng returned to the company. They entered the somatosensory cabin and started a game of "Sweet Duo".
I have to say, games still have to be played with brothers.
Women will only affect the speed at which you draw your sword.
The two of them were long-time internet addicts and also game developers. They are masters at playing their own games!
Since there was no one in the company, the two of them treated the company as an Internet cafe, playing matching and ranking games for a whole afternoon.
Da da da——
With a volley of bullets from Gu Sheng, the last lone wolf was turned into a box.
The settlement screen of [Good luck, chicken dinner tonight] appears.
"Fuck! We are the bronze one and Lao Gu!"
Lu Bian's surprised voice sounded:
"We are really awesome! Becoming a silver master is just around the corner!"
"Of course!"
Gu Sheng was also very happy:
"We are only 3,000 points away from becoming the God of War!"
"We are brothers!" "Invincible!"
The two idiots cheered with joy.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, night fell.
"Will you come home with me for the New Year?"
With the help of Gu Sheng, Lu Bian packed his backpack, took the notebook containing the information with him, and turned to ask Gu Sheng.
"I've been asking you for six years, and you don't think it's annoying and you don't want to go,"
Gu Sheng patted Lu Bian's shoulder:
"Give my regards to uncle and auntie,"
"Go away, I'm going to taste loneliness."
"you……"
Lu Bian looked at Gu Sheng's carefree look and opened his mouth:
"Stupid."
After that, he waved to Gu Sheng and walked towards the company gate: " Happy New Year!"
"…Happy New Year."
It was half past seven, the news broadcast had just ended, night had completely fallen, and the company had become completely silent.
Today is New Year's Eve. Everyone from the project department and the operation and maintenance department has gone home to celebrate the New Year.
As for little Nezha.
She showed up in the morning and had been in the company for less than half an hour when she seduced Chu Qingzhou away.
Gu Sheng sat in his office, his ears filled with empty sounds and he felt a little lost.
"BT."
I called BT, and then I heard a mellow electronic synthesized male voice coming from the smart speaker on the desktop.
Yes, Gu Sheng changed the name of his smart speaker to BT and also replaced the voice line.
"Hello Sam, I'm BT-7274, you can call me BT, how can I help you?"
"Let's play a New Year's prelude."
Gu Sheng wanted to find some New Year atmosphere.
However, as the festive and lively tunes of the New Year's Overture sounded, Gu Sheng not only failed to find the flavor of the New Year, but felt even more at a loss.
Cheerful music sounded in the empty company. Bored Gu Sheng stood up, walked to the leisure area, and started grabbing lollipops.
Click.
Click.
Click.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m not in good condition today, or if the new batch of lollipops have been wrapped in slippery paper.
Gu Sheng seemed to no longer be as brave as before, and he kept failing to grab the lollipops.
However, just when Gu Sheng was hesitating whether to go to Lu Bian's office to steal two snack coins.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound of the company's electric door opening in the corridor.
"Um?"
Gu Sheng was a little confused.
Leaving the claw machine, he walked into the corridor.
Little Nezha Shen Miaomiao was seen standing at the company gate with a look of shock on her face, her expression was surprised and a little panicked.
Eyes met.
Shen Miaomiao took a half step back:
"Who are you having a party with???"
Shen Miaomiao was a little scared.
Such a big company!
Empty corridor!
The sound of the New Year's Overture resounded throughout the venue!
And Gu Sheng, like a lonely ghost wandering in the company, stood alone at the end of the corridor, looking at her quietly!
A moment!
The weirdness of Chinese horror is at its best.
Shen Miaomiao only felt a chill running up from the soles of her feet all the way to the top of her head, and her back felt cold!
Looking at Shen Miaomiao's horrified expression, Gu Sheng made a bewildered expression:
"Me? I'm having a party with everyone..."
As he was talking, Gu Sheng raised his hand and waved to Shen Miaomiao from behind: "Hey, Happy New Year, let's eat dumplings together later!"
My! Hair!!!
Shen Miaomiao turned her head and looked behind her, where there was no one. She felt like her scalp was about to explode!
She wrapped herself tightly in her milky white down jacket, looked at Gu Sheng, and her voice trembled:
"Ah...? Who... are you talking to???"
"Old Song, it's on the floor above our company..."
Halfway through!
Gu Sheng's voice suddenly stopped!
Following right on!
A pair of eyes suddenly became sharp and sinister!
The scrutinizing gaze was like a sharp knife, piercing straight into Shen Miaomiao's heart!
"Wait? You..."
As Gu Sheng spoke, he took a step and slowly walked towards Shen Miaomiao:
"You can't see us, can you...?"
"Ah——???" Shen Miaomiao felt both of her legs go numb. She staggered backwards and pressed against the corner of the wall.
At this time, Gu Sheng also came in front of her.
"I said..."
Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Then, suddenly, loudly!
"You stepped on Lao Song's foot!!!"
“Aaaaaaa——!!!”
Shen Miaomiao exploded immediately, grabbed the two balls on her head with both hands, squatted on the ground crying, and rolled herself into a small snowball:
"Wow, wow, I'm sorry... I didn't mean to do that... I really couldn't see... I just came back to pick up the package..."
"I didn't know you were having a party..."
“Please spare me…”
Looking at Shen Miaomiao squatting on the ground and shivering, Gu Sheng finally found real fun in this sad and lonely New Year's Eve.
Then, as expected, he was severely beaten.
Gu Sheng said he didn't care.
Since he dared to do such a shameless thing, he was ready to be beaten.
only--
"Hiss... Shen Miaomiao, you are a bit too cruel..."
Sitting on a bench in the rest area, Gu Sheng covered the two rows of deep teeth marks on his wrist with a grin:
"You are a dog, aren't you? You bite so hard? If you bite deeper, I'll have to get a rabies vaccine."
"You should!"
Shen Miaomiao stood in front of the claw machine, fiddling with the joystick with great interest, continuing Gu Sheng's unfinished work of grabbing lollipops:
"I've been very lenient with my words."
After saying this, Shen Miaomiao pouted her lips and tapped the claw machine:
"Come on! I can't catch you!"
Gu Sheng: ???
He raised his hand: "I was injured at work?"
"To go to work despite being ill is to show one's loyalty,"
Without further ado, Shen Miaomiao stepped forward and forcibly pulled Gu Sheng up:
"And you have to make up for the trauma of my heart."
Gu Sheng smacked his lips: "You're being ridiculous..."
Seeing that Gu Sheng wanted to argue, Shen Miaomiao did not argue much. She curled her lips, and tears welled up in her eyes, and she started to cry: "Wow——"
But Gu Sheng was not that incompetent and weak. He immediately stood up and gently covered Shen Miaomiao's mouth with his hand.
For a moment, Shen Miaomiao's originally sad and aggrieved cry turned into "Wawuwawuwawuwawu..."
It sounds like a cannibal tribe is about to have a meal.
Gu Sheng burst into laughter, and Shen Miaomiao could no longer pretend. She felt angry and amused at the same time, so she grabbed Gu Sheng and wanted to beat him up again:
"Gu Sheng, you are a dog, right? --!!!"
Amid the cheerful rhythm of the New Year's Overture, the two played the game of Qin Wang circling the pillar in the huge leisure area.
certainly.
In the end, Gu Sheng still caught the little Nezha who was so tired from eating the lollipop.
It's strange to say.
The capture had failed many times before, but this time it was successful at once.
"Okay, soothe the pain in your heart,"
Taking the lollipop out of the delivery port and handing it to Little Nezha, Gu Sheng said:
"Take the package home. It's almost eight o'clock. Your dad must be getting anxious waiting for you."
Upon hearing this, Shen Miaomiao paused for a moment while licking her lollipop, and rolled her eyes:
"Him? He's not waiting for me! He's hosting another banquet this year, and I'm spending the New Year alone..."
Gu Sheng was stunned.
I didn't expect that I would not be the only one feeling lonely on this New Year's Eve.
But think about it.
Shen Wanlin is such a powerful business elite, and his network of relationships is extremely vast.
If one can achieve that, he is no longer just a businessman. It is normal for him to have social engagements all year round.
Looking at the little Nezha who is also a wanderer in the world, I think about myself who will have to face the boring Spring Festival Gala alone when I go home.
Gu Sheng opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.
However, before he could speak, Shen Miaomiao said first: "How about we go set off fireworks?"
Shen Miaomiao knew about Gu Sheng's family situation.
Of course, it's not just Gu Sheng, she knows the family situation of everyone in the company by heart.
Seeing the thief light flashing in Shen Miaomiao's big eyes, Gu Sheng took a half step back vigilantly:
"The look in your eyes... it's hard for me to agree?"
"Oh, you are such a mean person, why do you always judge others by your own mean mind?"
Shen Miaomiao stretched out her little hand, grabbed the corner of Gu Sheng's clothes and shook it:
"It's just fireworks. Can I tie you to a rocket and let you go?"
"That's hard to say..."
Gu Sheng curled his lips:
"Tell me the truth, and I'll go with you."
"Hey...you..."
Shen Miaomiao pursed her lips and scratched her head a little embarrassedly:
"Wait a moment."
After saying this, Shen Miaomiao turned around and went back to her office. Not long after, she came out holding a courier box.
When I opened the package, I saw that it was full of those small air cannons.
Bang!
Shen Miaomiao pressed one button and shrank her neck:
"I originally bought these things to replace fireworks and have fun,"
"Because I don't dare to set off those big fireworks."
"I'm afraid... emmmm..."
"I'm afraid I'll blow myself up."
ah?!
The pain of the truth almost made Gu Sheng unable to breathe!
"so……"
Gu Sheng widened his eyes in shock, speechless!
"You're just gonna give me up???"
“Uh… hehe…”
Shen Miaomiao gave an awkward yet polite smile:
"It shouldn't be that easy to kill someone, right? After all, it's a firework, not a mine..."
"Besides, our company pays the five social insurances and one housing fund at the highest level,"
"Your medical insurance card balance is sufficient."
Looking at little Nezha's sincere and simple smile, Gu Sheng felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Oh shit.
I have seen the King of Hell.
The limit she could accept was that my medical insurance card would be in arrears.
"How's it going?"
Seeing Gu Sheng covering his chest and not speaking, Shen Miaomiao walked forward and looked at Gu Sheng expectantly:
"Big fireworks, very pretty!"
What else can Gu Sheng say!
…
Crackling!
With the first red fireworks at the end of the year and the beginning of the next year, the fireworks at the concentrated fireworks display point on the bank of Haijiang River exploded.
Shen Miaomiao covered her ears excitedly and giggled as she watched Gu Sheng running back amid the cheers.
On the roadside next to the fireworks display, a burgundy Porsche and a golden black Navigator were parked opposite each other.
In the middle of the two cars, various fireworks were stacked as high as a person, attracting the attention of people around.
The red earth is like the opening prologue.
As the fireworks curtain opened, clusters, groups, and sticks of fireworks shot out and bloomed in the sky.
The colorful lights echo the vast sea and river waters.
The city across the street is brightly lit and bustling.
The interweaving colors of red and yellow make the New Year atmosphere extremely strong.
Ferries with "Happy New Year" flashing on them cross the river, carrying boatloads of warmth and joy.
Along the long Haijiang River, there are many people like Gu Sheng, setting off fireworks.
"But none of them are as pretty as ours!"
Shen Miaomiao held a fairy wand in one hand, smiling brightly and contentedly:
"Ours is the biggest! The brightest! The best looking!"
"Yeah—yes, yes,"
Gu Sheng smiled and nodded:
“Ours looks the best.”
Talking!
Sss——Bang!!!
Another string of fireworks rose into the sky.
Under the starry sky, brilliant fireworks appear one after another.
Gu Sheng turned around and looked at Shen Miaomiao who was cheering beside him, and smiled.
As if she had noticed Gu Sheng's gaze, Shen Miaomiao also turned her head.
Under the bright night sky, their eyes met.
Shen Miaomiao's lips moved, as if she said something, but the sound of the fireworks exploding covered it up.
"What did you say--?"
Amidst the roar of bangs, Gu Sheng asked loudly.
Shen Miaomiao smiled, her big eyes like a crescent moon:
"I said—"
"Happy-New-Year-"
Bang!
Talking!
The largest firework exploded in the skyline, causing the surrounding crowd to gasp in amazement.
Under the dazzling red light, Shen Miaomiao's face was also reflected red...
…
Say goodbye to the old and welcome the new!
In the blink of an eye, the New Year has passed.
A vacation without shift changes is a happy one.
The eighth day of the Lunar New Year!
The golden wind that had been silent for seven days became lively again, and everyone's face was beaming with joy!
"Hey, Brother Yun, your face has become rounder in just a few days..."
"Hey, you've tasted sister-in-law's cooking skills before, Brother Yun must have been eating a lot these days..."
"Back to work! I haven't talked to my BT for a few days. I miss him so much..."
"BT would have been a rotten factory if he had known this would happen..."
"You fucking ..."
“Hahahahahaha…”
The sealed Titanfall project has been restarted and everyone is full of energy.
As major manufacturers, especially the two domestic giants Yiyu Technology and Xun Teng Technology, officially restarted, the already turbulent gaming market began to surge again.
Both sides have their own supporters and their own trump cards.
The war of public opinion broke out suddenly and almost silently.
The first wave of attack was naturally initiated by Xun Teng.
Following closely, Yiyou was not to be outdone and began to fight back.
In just two weeks, the overt and covert media attacks between the two sides reached a climax.
Although at this time!
There are still three full months before both parties’ somatosensory cabins are officially released.
The reason why both parties are working so hard is naturally not without purpose.
Because at the end of this month, both parties will release promotional videos of their three escort masterpieces at the same time!
This will be the first head-on confrontation between the two sides and also one of the most crucial confrontations!
Because the promotional video will be the first official appearance of the escort masterpieces in the hands of both parties!
Type, picture, theme, innovation...
Countless core selling points of the game will be presented to all media and players for the first time.
So, to build momentum!
Neither side dares to relax!
For a time, all kinds of news bombarded the market and countless speculations came one after another!
The entire gaming community is just like northwest Shanxi, a mess.
now!
The curtain gradually rises——
