Rebirth of America, this is my time

Exidi's people moved very quickly. In less than five minutes, they unloaded the game console from the Ford pickup truck.

After taking off the oilcloth, the brand-new machine attracted their attention like a magnet.

"Wow! Is this a prototype? It's even shaped? The straight shape of this refrigerator looks so cool!"

"The dark green shell is so bright? It seems that the spray painting skills are good!"

"Brother, did you draw this white snake? "Snake Game"? Is this game related to snakes?"

Samuel Hawes put his hands on his hips and looked at the arcade machine brought by Ethan curiously.

Facing his question, Ethan nodded and introduced: "Yeah~ As you can see, the game I brought is related to snakes. In other words, the player in the game plays a snake. "

"Oh~Cool~" Peter Kaufman said with a smile: "Let players play snakes? This idea is quite creative!"

"And to be honest, Ethan, I can tell by your appearance that you have a strong commercial idea."

"The combination of appearance and content is what must be grasped when selling machines. Let customers see the content of the machine at a glance. That is what a qualified designer should do! Brother, it seems that you have rich design experience !”

"Really? Thanks."

Ethan thanked with a smile, and at the same time he disclosed his work experience without reservation, "Because two weeks ago I was still working in Mi Luohua."

"What?"

Before Ethan could finish his words, Samuel Hawes, who was still looking at the machine, screamed.

"Brother! Can you say it again? Where did you work before???"

"Mi Luohua."

"Oh! My! God!"

Samuel Hawes's face immediately showed surprise, and he stretched out his right hand and held Ethan tightly.

"Ethan? Ethan Jones, right? Oh! It's such a pleasure to meet you! You may not know! I am a fan of Professor Bell! The Odyssey he launched before is simply a miracle! It can compress the computer into It’s the size of a briefcase, and has 13 games built into it! Oh my God! Professor Ralph Bell’s genius idea is simply a gift from God! It must be a very happy thing to work with him, huh?”

Ralph Bell was actually the inventor of the world's first home video game console, the Odyssey. He made a prototype in 1966 and named it Brown Box, while Milova was only willing to invest in manufacturing and The company that publishes brown boxes, so in the industry, people respect Ralph Bell, who has genius ideas and creativity, and regard him as the father of video games.

As for Mi Luohua?

Capitalists are all the same, right?

"That's right." Ethan, who understood the key, tilted his head and lied.

At the same time, he also motioned to the other party to watch the game first, "Mr. Hawes, I'm here to discuss cooperation with you today."

“Okay, Okay, Okay, work together, work together, work together.”

Perhaps because of his reputation as a former Milohua employee, Samuel Hawes rubbed his hands and shouted to the employee next to him: "Pull a line over here."

As he shouted, the employees around him immediately turned around.

A moment later, a circuit extending from the interior of the warehouse was delivered to Samuel Hawes.

Familiarly, he connected the power to the arcade machine and pressed the power switch behind his butt. When the circuit was connected, the sound effect of "ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding."

This sound made the guys at the scene stunned.

The next second, almost everyone laughed out loud.

"Jingle-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-dong?" Pete Kaufman sang it straight away.

At the same time, his eyes were full of curiosity, "Ethan, if I heard correctly, this is "Jingle Bells", right? This is a Christmas song, how come... it has become the background of the game in your case? Music?”

This question made Ethan pretend to be calm.

In fact, when choosing background music, he didn't want to use this song, but...

"There is no way, because I have no musical bacteria and no money. The former prevents me from composing music for games, and the latter allows me to use the uncopyrighted "Jingle Bells". After all, it is really difficult to hire a professional dubbing artist in Hollywood to compose music. It is too expensive and cannot be afforded by a machine that is not yet on the market. Therefore, I can only use this kind of copyright-free music to demonstrate that the machine can have such a function, but this is not important, right? Because it can be changed.”

"Oh! This is really a genius decision."

Peter Kaufman twitched the corner of his mouth and said something against his will.

During their communication, Samuel Hawes also studied the "Snake" machine.

I saw him take out a twenty-five-cent coin from his pocket in a familiar manner, and decisively put it into the coin slot. After a crisp sound, he stared at the screen intently.

For a veteran like him, the sudden switch of the game interface meant the beginning of the game, but when he turned the joystick, he found that the horizontal bars on the screen did not move.

"Is this bad?" Samuel Hawes turned his head in confusion.

"Of course not," Ethan replied.

"But it doesn't move..." Samuel Hawes continued to turn the joystick.

The next second, when he turned his gaze back to the screen, a sound like an electric shock suddenly appeared.

"Ding ding ding ding!"

The screen shook, the game disappeared, and the initial interface appeared again.

"WTF???" Samuel Hawes was shocked!

"Did I lose before I even played?" He couldn't believe it.

The people around Exidi didn't understand what was going on, and everyone had a look of confusion on their faces.

The confused expression on his face made Ethan laugh and said: "Mr. Hawes, I can guarantee that there is nothing wrong with my game. If you feel something is wrong, you can try again."

Before he finished speaking, Samuel Hawes tossed another coin.

Then, he opened his eyes as big as a bell and stared at the screen.

Then, he discovered that when the game interface appeared, the long bar in the center of the screen would pause for three seconds before moving naturally. Only then did his control become truly useful.

This discovery made him very happy, so he controlled the little snake to swim around randomly.

And just when he was thinking about how to play this game, the electric shock sound representing failure appeared again.

"Ding ding ding ding!"

"Oh! FXXk! So you can't touch yourself!"

This discovery led Samuel Hawes to throw another coin.

Then……

"Ding ding ding ding!"

He's dead again!

"Damn!!! Are you so special that you can't touch the border???"

After betting three coins in a row, he finally figured out how to control himself in order to stay alive in the game.

"But how can we clear the game in this case?" Samuel Hawes was very surprised.

"How about you try hitting the white dot on the screen with the snake's head?" Peter Kaufman suggested.

"Hit the white spot? Isn't that an obstacle? If you hit it, you will definitely die!"

"But now there is nothing to hit! If you just waste it like this, can it pass the level?"

"Oh! Sxxt! It's your death!"

At a shout from Samuel Hawes, the little snake on the screen hit the white dot.

With the sound of a click, the little snake not only did not die, but actually grew a little stronger.

Not only that, the 0 in the upper right corner of the screen has also changed to 1.

"Ohhhhhh!!! I know!"

This fact came as a surprise to Samuel Hawes.

"This game is about using snakes to eat white spots! The more you eat, the more points you get! When you reach a certain number, you win!"

But it's a pity...

The idea is beautiful, but the reality is very ugly.

When Samuel Hawes started eating crazily according to the ideas he had researched, the little snake on the screen grew longer and longer, and then the speed of reaching ten, twenty, and thirty points accelerated. .

The sudden increase in speed caused Samuel Hawes's snakes to die again and again.

And while he was holding the joystick, his eyes were red!

"Oh! Samuel! You lost again! You are really too good! Let me do it!"

After watching it for a while, Peter Kaufman found it interesting and wanted to get started.

"No! I don't believe it! Will I fail the test today?"

Samuel Hawes refused to budge.

"Even if you can pass the level today, you still have to let me play first! You have played several games in a row, brother!"

Peter Kaufman's hands felt a little itchy and he began to squeeze in front of the machine.

"Oh! Pete! Give me one more chance, please! One last time! I swear! Please!"

However--

When Game Over appeared on the screen again, Samuel Hawes had no intention of getting out of the way. He dug into his pocket angrily and wanted to do it again.

Then, he came up empty handed.

"Hua Q!" This fact made him curse loudly.

Then he protected the joystick with one hand and shouted angrily: "Quick, quick, give me a few coins!"

The subordinates immediately turned around after receiving the order.

And Pete Kaufman was furious.

"Samuel!!!" he shouted, "it's time for you to let me go!"

"I'm here to feel it! I can win!" Samuel Hawes covered the joystick and didn't want to let go.

"But you just said it, for the last time!" Peter Kaufman shouted.

"Really? Why don't I remember?"

Samuel Hawes blinked as if he had lost his memory.

Looks innocent.

"Fxxxxxxx!" Pete Kaufman roared.

The roars of the two people were fully visible to Ethan Jones.

He folded his arms and leaned against the car with a smile on his face.

He likes this scene!

I prefer the magical power of greedy snakes that can fascinate people!

Because all this means -

Mane!
