Why Can’t I Play Games

There were countless reporters outside the Hilton Hotel in San Francisco at night.

Everyone is looking forward to, under the bright lights and noise, waiting for their protagonist to appear.

Joe Roy sat on a chair in the hotel overlooking the crowd and vehicles below.

The advertisements for Phelps' cars came back to my mind.

At this moment, those advertising cars were still driving slowly around the hotel.

The Assistant snapped a photo from a distance.

It was a few kilometers away, and there was a "Phelps" advertisement banner in the small theater. There were only a few journalists outside the house, and dozens of users, and more staff members.

Compared with the grand conference of Apple 3, Phelps' conference is really low, and you can feel embarrassment through the photos.

Joe Roy didn't know what to say...

He didn't know what gave Phelps such courage.

like a joke.

but!

It doesn't matter anymore.

It's 6:45.

Joe Roy looked at today's plan again, and after confirming that there was no problem, he closed the book.

He stood up, got dressed with the help of his assistant, and walked towards the door step by step.

"A brand new era is about to begin!"

"It's bound to drive the world crazy..."

"From now on, everything will be a clown."

"..."

He pushed open the door.

He felt like he had pushed back an era.

go downstairs.

He came to the theater that the hotel had prepared for them.

On the brightly lit stage, various concept drawings with a sense of technology, and on the stylish and avant-garde big screen, various functions of the Apple 3 are constantly scrolling.

Under the camera, the reporters stared excitedly at Joe Roy who was walking slowly.

Joe Roy had a smile on his face, and the light shone on him, giving him a faint sense of holiness.

He picked up the phone.

"Hello everyone……"

……………………………

It's almost 7 o'clock.

Tong Wei embarrassedly invited reporters and dozens of hardcore Phelps users in.

There are also some mobile phone manufacturers among them, and even the staff of Samsung's old American branch have received invitation letters.

They received a call out of nowhere, and they didn't want to come over. After all, they were not familiar with Phelps, and they were competitors, so why did they come here?

Are you pretending to be forced?

But then think!

If the Phelps phone dares to compete with Apple technology like this, then there must be some back-up preparations, and even at the press conference, there may be some big moves and surprises.

Could it be...

Phelps' mobile phone technology breaks through the sky, can it beat Apple?

Although I thought it was impossible, some people finally came here just to join in the fun.

When they came, they passed the Hilton Hotel.

Seeing the lively appearance of the Hilton Hotel, they had some expectations in their hearts for no reason.

I don't know what Phelps' phone will look like.

but……

After arriving at the scene full of expectations, they were instantly disappointed.

Everything is low.

In fact...

It's not so much a press conference for technology products as it is a self-congratulatory event.

A fairly large projector, some rudimentary equipment, and even those tables and chairs seemed to be placed there temporarily.

The only ones with a face were a few reporters wearing glasses and holding high-end equipment to shoot.

but……

The expressions of those reporters seemed constipated, and the words between the lines revealed that they were about to run away. Even the fans who heard the news were pointing at the platform.

"No way, Phelps...that's it?"

"this……"

"Don't tell me, isn't it a joke that they want to hold a press conference in such an environment?"

"have no idea……"

"Why does it feel like buying vegetables in a vegetable market?"

"I wanna go……"

"Me too, I thought Phelps would release something big, but now it seems..."

"Cough, cough..."

"..."

Li Zaihao, the head of Samsung's old JS region, stood up immediately after hearing such discussions.

Isn't it cerebral palsy to wait here like a fool? But then he saw a few vicious security guards standing outside the house staring at him, especially when he saw that the security guards seemed to be holding electric batons, as if they could strike at any time, his legs softened slightly, and a cold sweat broke out?

These people...

Could it be that it is not for maintaining law and order, but because they are afraid that they will run away, so they are specially watching them?

Several mobile phone manufacturers, you look at me, I look at you...

The eyes are surprisingly consistent.

It's seven o'clock.

Tong Wei was wearing a suit and walked to the side of the projector. He felt that the embarrassment on his body was about to commit cancer.

He subconsciously looked at the three reporters.

These reporters are basically well-known reporters in the old American game circle and digital circle.

They didn't come here spontaneously like when Apple 3 was released, they were bought by Tong Wei with money.

The conference cost a total of less than 10,000 U.S. dollars, but the money for these reporters was close to 30,000 U.S. dollars. When he thought about this, he was completely paralyzed.

My head was muddled and I was extremely speechless.

Isn't this just giving up everything?

Seeing these reporters' expressions became more constipated, as if they were about to leave, Tong Wei became even more speechless...

but……

In the end, he bit the bullet and picked up the manuscript, with a very forced smile on his face.

"Thank you to all the guests who came from afar..."

"I believe everyone knows that our Phelps mobile phone is a global, cross-age technological product. It has powerful functions and is not inferior to any mobile phone on the market. At the same time..."

"..."

The more Tong Wei read, the more embarrassing he became, especially the few applause, which made him feel like hitting a wall.

Isn't this in the midst of social death?

but!

Although I can't wait to find a hole to drill down, and then I won't come up again.

But he still followed Zhang Yang's request and carefully read all the manuscripts. After reading, he took out Phelps' mobile phone next to the projector according to the procedure, opened an interface, and downloaded a The software called "Universe Platform", and under the eyes of everyone and the still little applause, started to demonstrate a game called "Crazy Pipe Bird" in embarrassment...

This game is also very LOW in his opinion.

Moreover, the gameplay is too simple and embarrassing...

………………………

Apple's third-generation mobile phone has achieved unprecedented success.

There was thunderous applause at the scene, and after seeing Joe Roy demonstrating the various functions of the Apple 3rd generation on the stage, the eyes of Apple fans flickered with fanaticism.

There were bursts of cheers on the field.

"God, has the age of intelligence arrived?"

"God...today's Apple 3 is really amazing!"

"It actually supports voice operation, my god..."

"There are 3 million pixels!"

"Doesn't it need the Internet? Can it even support wireless networks? That is to say, in the future, without a SIM card, the mobile phone can still access the Internet?"

"When the 3G era comes, can these really be realized?"

"..."

Ten years from now, those exclamations would be embarrassing.

It looks like it has never seen the market.

but……

At the end of 2005.

Such technology is indeed shocking.

Many people stared at the mobile phone in Joe Roy's hand, and they couldn't help being excited amid waves of exclamation.

This is indeed a cross-generational product.

And those reporters were also very excited and kept writing the manuscript of the scene atmosphere, full of surprises.

Under bright lights.

Joe Roy looked at the expressions of everyone below, and nodded with great satisfaction.

Then……

When he took the microphone and said that after Christmas, the mobile phone will be released...

The cheers were endless.

In a sea of ​​cheers...

one time!

Joe Roy felt like a god.

"Congratulations to Mr. Joe Roy, the press conference was a great success, not only me, but we are all looking forward to your phone..."

"Congratulations!"

"Mr. Joe Roy, I have a hunch that the Apple Empire will officially create a legend in your hands!"

"Mr. Joe Roy, you surprised me today..."

"..."

This upsurge lasted until ten o'clock in the evening. After Joe Roy's press conference ended, these technology fans and reporters left in shock one by one.

Looking at the backs of everyone leaving, Joe Roy was satisfied.

Urged by his assistant, he got into the car and was about to go back to sleep when Joe Roy suddenly stopped the driver.

"Go to the other side and see..."

"ah?"

"The direction of Phelps' phone..."

"OK."

Joe Roy sat in the car and went to the scene of Phelps' press conference.

When he got to the scene...

He discovered that Phelps' press conference had long since ended.

Sure enough, it can't go on?

He shook his head.

Then...

Get back in the car.

When he got back to the hotel to get ready for bed, he received a piece of news.

in the news...

"The scene of Phelps' press conference was once embarrassing. In a press conference like a family workshop, how dare you play the banner of competing with Apple's mobile phone?"

"The launch event of the Universe Mall is like a joke..."

"Android Announces Open Source..."

"Any mobile phone manufacturer, as long as they want, can upgrade and rectify on the basis of open source, and the whole process is free of charge. However, the invited mobile phone manufacturers are silent throughout the whole process, and no one responds..."

"..."

Look at this series of operations.

Joe Roy suddenly laughed.

He felt that Phelps' phone was in a hurry.

The open source stuff is out there...

This is not a rush, what is it?

and……

He thought for a long time in the car, but he still couldn't understand why Phelps would hold such an embarrassing press conference...

Isn't this a joke of the entire digital circle, is it a clown?

When returning to the hotel.

He got a lot of congratulatory calls.

really!

The congratulatory calls, without exception, congratulated him and at the same time laughed at Phelps' overreaching...

Some people even explained the situation of Phelps clearly on the spot, their voices were full of joy, just like clowns. of

Joe Roy was very happy at first, and laughed along with him.

But not long after that...

Joe Roy suddenly felt something was wrong.

He turns on the computer!

He suddenly found that when everyone praised the awesomeness of the Apple mobile phone, they would humorously say something about Phelps.

Take the comparison between the two conferences as the biggest joke in the digital circle at the end of 2005...

Some people even talked about Tong Wei's embarrassing bump on the stage in detail, wantonly mocking Phelps' self-disruption, and opened the source code!

etc……

If everyone thinks Phelps is like a joke!

So……

Isn't this a big hit?

And open source code, really no one responds?

It doesn't seem right!
