"Things like fitness rings are nothing more than whitewashing the disadvantages of the game. How can this thing compare with real fitness?"

Sociologist Gene expressed disdain.

On the day the fitness ring was announced, he saw many people advocating the game on social platforms.

In different regions, fitness rings have also been promoted to varying degrees.

In Japan, the most famous innocent actresses will be invited to shoot commercials, how fresh and how to come.

In the United States, it is more fashionable, from an actress to a group of youthful young people doing exercises with fitness rings, and then sweating profusely.

In the UK and other regions, the advertisement will become a British gentleman style. The male models in suits will directly perform various movements of the fitness ring on the street, with some unique European humor, but also show the fitness ring. characteristics.

Because of the promotional methods for different regions, the ad attracted a lot of praise as soon as it was aired, and many people said that they would watch the ad several times just for the advertisement.

But that doesn't stop Gene from continuing to look down on video games.

So he also tried his best to publicize the disadvantages of video games through his social platform.

The fitness ring is considered by him to be just a gimmick, but in fact it cannot achieve the so-called fitness function at all.

He thinks that the profuse sweating in the advertisement is a kind of show performance. If the player actually gets it, the real effect will be greatly reduced.

It is true that some people believed Gene's words and chose to continue to wait and see instead of rushing to buy.

But more people are still unknown.

For example, the white-collar workers who are attracted at first sight.

Usually, he doesn’t have any social network needs in his life, and spends most of his time working and family, so he is hardly affected by such remarks.

On the day when the fitness ring was released, he took a rare vacation and came here to buy the fitness ring for a big adventure.

After buying it, he couldn't wait to go home and want to have a good experience.

"Huh? Husband? You seem to be back early today."

The white-collar wife is a gentle and virtuous woman. After sending her husband and children to work and school in the morning, she will clean up the room and wash the clothes at home, and then the wife plans to stay for a while to chat with some women in the neighborhood. According to the latest anecdotal news, this is probably what most women in Japan do now.

Even in 2007, many women in Japan are still used to being full-time housewives when they get married. Even though the policy encourages women to fight for their rights as much as possible long ago, they can get equal pay for equal work with men, but in reality people It is still difficult to reverse the social inertia in China, and it may take several generations of adjustments to change.

The wife who saw her husband coming back so early was very surprised, usually her husband would not come back so early.

"I asked for a vacation today, let's not talk about it, my wife, I bought a more interesting thing, do you want to experience it?"

"Something more interesting?" The wife was a little curious, and then suddenly thought of something, her face immediately turned red and squirmed.

"Husband... Is it because of this more interesting thing that you came back so early?"

"Almost, I think this should help our whole family feel more warm."

"Well?"

The wife was stunned.

Then she saw her husband take out a game console and a game cassette of Ring Fitness Adventure from behind.

"What's this?"

"This is a game console. I remember that our child always wanted to experience it. He always said that his friends around him had this thing. I suddenly felt that our family should also have this thing."

His wife's expression changed from blushing and shy at the beginning to calm down, and then became a little embarrassed again.

"But husband, I remember that you have always been against video games before, do you think this thing is addictive?"

"That's how I felt before, but I think maybe I should change my mind, because a new game just came out on this, and I think maybe video games are not so bad. You don't always think about fitness. thing?"

"Well, that's right, I've always wanted to buy a fitness card, but it's really expensive with the cost of buying a trainer."

"Then you might try this."

A white-collar worker shows his wife the cassette box of the fitness ring.

The wife looked at it curiously, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?"

"This is one of the games called Fitness Ring. I don't know the specific content of this game, but the demo in the advertisement seems to be very useful."

"But... this is still a game, right? Can games really have a fitness effect?"

The wife is a little skeptical.

"That... you try it?"

The white-collar worker said with some expectation.

He kept recalling in his mind that he had seen countless commercials shot by Uemura Aika in the past few months.

Looking at Uemura Aika's sweaty appearance, even if the effect was only half, he felt that it was worth the money.

"Then... let's try it."

The wife who originally planned to go to the neighbors after cleaning up the house also gave up going out, but stayed at home with her husband.

Other neighbors should also understand.

The white-collar worker couldn't wait to run to the TV and install the game console according to the instructions. This kind of game console installation can be easily done by a child, so he installed the game console with ease, and put the cassette of the fitness ring Put it in the game console.

At the same time, in order to play the fitness ring game, he also needs to buy an additional separate handle. All these costs add up to more than 50,000 yen, which is really a big expense.

If the game really didn't meet his expectations, he felt that he would be completely disappointed with video games. Of course, he would not return the game if he returned it. He thought it could also be used as a gift for his children.

Of course, I have to limit my child's play time and not let him be too addicted.

The wife watched patiently her husband's installation, and then waited for her husband to install the fitness ring and handed it to herself. The wife also looked at the black iron ring peripheral curiously.

This looks like a very simple iron ring, but it is quite elastic, and it may be used as some tools at home.

The white-collar worker finally finished the fitness ring after a while of busy work, and then he couldn't wait to put the handles into the slots of the leggings and the fitness ring respectively according to the instructions of the game, and the game officially started.

"Come on, wife, follow this instruction to experience it."
