Chapter 4856: Don’t Be so Petty
The seventh Second World Carnival finally opened.
On January 15, 2008, the Laba Festival of the Chinese lunar calendar, it was held at the home stadium of the Yankees baseball team in the Bronx, New York! The Yankees baseball team and Real Madrid are recognized as the most famous sports clubs in the world today.
Bloomberg held the opening ceremony of the "Second World Carnival" at the home stadium of the Yankees baseball team, which shows his importance to this event. Its home stadium can accommodate 52,325 spectators. In the past, it was usually full. And today, it was full as well. Not only that, there were a large number of game fans outside the stadium holding up banknotes, wanting to buy tickets from scalpers, even if they were willing to pay a lot of money, as long as they could get into the stadium.
However, the scalpers did not have tickets. The ticket sales for this carnival were completely free. The qualifications of the ticket winners were randomly selected by the computer according to the player's "Second World" membership level. In order to ensure that the tickets were not sold by scalpers, all the lucky ones were confirmed and could come to watch on site. If you cannot come to watch, you will automatically lose your qualification. Every lucky player who comes will enter his or her membership account through the computer for confirmation when entering, and the computer will check whether the players belong to the same person. If not, they will be refused entry. In addition, their membership level will be temporarily downgraded by one level. If the player's appeal is unsuccessful, it will be permanently downgraded by one level, and the scalper's nature will be recorded.
Using Internet thinking to solve the scalper party is also an attempt made by Lin Feng now. The emergence of the Internet has made everyone no longer hidden in the crowd, and everyone is unfamiliar. In the Internet age, even if you are the most insignificant passerby, all your information is recorded, and you have left an indelible footprint in this world.
When the night falls, when the clock strikes 19 o'clock, the seventh Second World Carnival officially begins.
The whole scene is filled with many familiar music in the game for players. There are "Counter-Strike", "StarCraft", "Plants vs. Zombies", and "Legend". The melodies of all the games produced by "Second World" were carefully arranged by Avril and mixed into a big medley, which sounded excitingly in the Yankee baseball stadium.
At this moment, everyone's heart was excited. Such exciting music made them feel like they were back to the game scene where they had fought for countless days and nights. Many players hummed excitedly. Although these melodies have no lyrics, it does not prevent everyone from humming with emotion. And this humming, from the initial humming of a few players, finally became a chorus of the whole audience.
The opening ceremony entered the ** at the beginning.
"Avril, not bad, this medley is great!" Lin Feng gave Avril, who was sitting next to him, a thumbs up. This is really great. This music medley is not only not chaotic, but has a stronger rhythm and is more exciting. This has to admire Avril's attainments in music. This little girl's arrangement is indeed first-class.
"Mr. Lin, this is lively, but it's a bit chaotic! This will affect the following programs!" Bloomberg reminded quietly.
For the previous six sessions, the carnival was modeled after the opening ceremony of the Olympics, and the process was similar. First, there was a countdown, followed by various cultural performances, then the players entered the venue, then the national flag was raised, the festival song was played, then the chairman gave a speech, then the players and athletes took the oath, and finally the torch was lit. After the final song and dance performance, there was a fireworks closing ceremony.
This process has been the same for the past six sessions.
And each session has become more and more formal and grand, but this session was a bit chaotic at the beginning. What will happen next?
"Mayor Bloomberg, I thought before that if we keep imitating the Olympics, we will never surpass the Olympics in our lifetime, so we must have our own style and feel. The Olympics is just the world of those super athletes. But our carnival is a festival for all players. Therefore, there is an essential difference between the two. Therefore, I decided not to learn from the Olympics. I want to come up with my own set!" Lin Feng laughed and said.
Lin Feng has great ambitions. It is meaningless to imitate the Olympics. The carnival that Lin Feng wants to hold is to surpass the Olympic carnival. Let it become a super event for gamers all over the world. And unlike the Olympics, which is held every four years, the carnival is held every year. Every year's Laba Festival is a festival for global players, the grandest festival.
The chorus lasted for a long time before it ended. When it ended, many players were already in tears. They cried, these were the tears of memories. Their past youthful years, those gaming times, just made them all recall.
"Hello, players, I am Lin Feng!" At this time, Lin Feng stood up and walked to the center of the rostrum.
All the lights hit Lin Feng, and at this moment, the whole audience cheered with emotion.
"Wind God! Wind God! Wind God!"
Although many people thought that Lin Feng would definitely appear at the carnival, they did not expect that Lin Feng would come out so early. Especially after they had just recalled their past gaming days, Lin Feng came out, which reminded them of the indelible and beautiful memories deep in their souls, all given by this young man who was about the same age as them, and in their hearts The excitement that had just calmed down suddenly erupted again.
In particular, there are many people here, many, many people who have obtained tickets, the conditions are really poor, they have no money to come to New York to watch the opening ceremony. Many people want to give up when they learn that they are lucky. But the final result was that Lin Feng paid for all their expenses for coming here. Yes, Lin Feng personally pays the bill, not the 'Second World' companies.
How could this not excite them! Without Lin Feng, they wouldn't be here. Although Lin Feng made all his money from them. But they enjoyed the various game services provided by Lin Feng that made them forget to leave. The money was what Lin Feng should have earned. He doesn't take it out, and no one talks about it. But Lin Feng took it out. Therefore, there are many people of different skin colors here today.
There are Europeans, Asians, South Americans, and Africans. As far as the eye can see, there are even Kip Dinamo people. It can be said that here today, there is truly no gap between rich and poor, and the earth is truly reunited.
They are naturally grateful to Lin Feng!
The God of Wind, Lin Feng deserves to be called the God of Wind. He deserves it!
Divine glory! Many people vaguely saw the divine brilliance in Lin Feng.
"Players, please be quiet!" Lin Feng pressed the void with his palm, and the fanatical atmosphere at the scene suddenly calmed down. The entire Yankee baseball team's home stadium fell silent. This terrifying charm makes everyone seem scared.
Perhaps Lam Feng does not have much influence among many adults over 30 years old, especially those over 40 years old, but among young people, no one can match Lam Feng's influence. In a few years, these young people will mature, but Lin Feng's influence is still there. Those younger ones have grown up, and they still worship and even believe in Lin Feng. This is terrible!
Many of the 'G23' family heads who were watching this scene felt fearful.
For this opening ceremony, Lin Feng also sent invitations to the family heads like them. After all, Lin Feng is now considered a member of ‘G23’. However, no one came. The reason is very simple. Lin Feng is just a rising star with no background. He invited them to attend a game annual meeting attended by such a group of ordinary people. If they go, it will be a humiliation for them.
So, they don't go. What annoyed them was that they found that there was no place for them at all. There are only so many seats on the podium, and each seat has already been occupied. This situation showed that Lin Feng did not expect them to come at all, and the invitation was just a meaning. This made them angry. Although they don’t have to go, you can’t not leave a place. What if they go? Aren't you embarrassing!
Of course, many family heads are also old foxes, and the city is extremely deep, so they will keep this in mind first. We'll settle the score later!
"Dear players, this is the seventh year that the carnival has been held. In China, there is a saying about the seven-year itch. Originally, this was about things between husband and wife. It said that after seven years, the couple changed from the first time they knew each other. Excitement, passion, mutual affection, and finally dullness. In the end, many people broke up this year. So, I decided to change it! We can't be like this, and I think our pattern is too much. It's too small!" Lin Feng smiled lightly, "What's the name? The layout is too small. Are there only 'Second World' players in the world? Are there no other gamers outside? Can we just have fun together by ourselves when we hold a game event and exclude other gamers? "Lin Feng said loudly, "This is too petty and lackluster! I, Lin Feng, am not such a petty person!" Lin Feng said firmly, "So, we have to change our name!"
"Change your name?" Everyone was stunned.
Mayor Bloomberg next to him had a twitching expression on his face. He has learned a lesson from Lin Feng's spontaneity. Isn't this the opening ceremony? Why did you turn it into a voting meeting? God, Lin Feng, I have put all my efforts into this! But facing Lin Feng, Mayor Bloomberg didn't know what to say!
Vote! You vote!
