Reborn not to be a simp, the school beauty's whole family goes crazy
Chapter 384, First Fan
He has been playing these games for at least a month, and he knows every scene and every task inside and out.
Familiar music plays, and familiar scenes appear.
But he could no longer find that feeling of excitement and anticipation he had when playing new games.
He kept switching between games, trying to find something new, but no matter which one he tried, they were all the same boring.
"I wish there was a new game to play."
As Lin Yu pondered this, he let out a heavy sigh, his eyes filled with desolation.
The next day, after get off work, Lin Yu found himself back at the game cartridge store, almost as if possessed.
He lingered at the shop entrance for a long time, feeling very conflicted.
The cassette tape of "I Opened an Inn in Chang'an 1" kept flashing through his mind, along with the introduction the shopkeeper had given him.
"This game is expensive, but there aren't any new games to play lately, so should I grit my teeth and buy it?"
He muttered to himself, his feet moving back and forth in front of the shop, sometimes taking a few steps forward and sometimes retreating.
The pedestrians around him hurried past, but he was completely oblivious, lost in his own inner struggle.
Ultimately, the desire for the new game outweighed concerns about the price.
He took a deep breath, as if he had made a great decision, and pushed open the shop door and went inside.
"Boss, give me a copy of 'I Run an Inn in Chang'an, Part 1'."
Lin Yu said somewhat reluctantly, his voice still carrying a hint of hesitation.
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Alright, I knew you'd come back to buy it. This game really won't disappoint you. Trust me, once you start playing, you won't be able to put it down."
As the shopkeeper spoke, he skillfully put the cassette tape into a bag and handed it to Lin Yu, his smile suggesting that he had known this day would come.
Lin Yu paid the money and took the card home.
He sat on the sofa, clutching the cassette tape tightly in his hand, still wondering to himself, "I hope this 120 yuan wasn't wasted."
He nervously inserted the cartridge into the game console, his eyes fixed on the TV screen, still not holding high hopes for the game.
However, as the game screen unfolds...
A pixel-art, antique-style street scene of Chang'an appears before your eyes.
The bustling market, the throngs of people, and the ancient-style inn immediately caught his attention.
He involuntarily sat up straight, his eyes widening, and his previously nonchalant expression gradually became focused.
Lin Yu began to seriously manage his inn. When attracting guests, he would arrange the most suitable room according to their different needs.
When upgrading facilities, he carefully considers the cost-effectiveness of each item.
When faced with various emergencies, he racked his brains to find solutions.
Before he knew it, he was completely immersed in the game.
Lin Yu stared intently at the TV screen, his hands skillfully manipulating the game controller.
On the screen, his inn is bustling with guests, and his business is booming.
After completing a rather challenging task, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "I didn't expect this game to be so interesting!"
A surprised smile bloomed on her face, a smile as bright and sincere as a flower in spring.
As the game progressed, he became increasingly engrossed in it.
Every time he successfully completed a task, he would excitedly clench his fist, raise his arm high, and shout, "Fantastic!"
The sound echoed in the room, filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Seeing the inn's booming business, guests came and went contentedly.
Lin Yu burst into laughter, his eyes sparkling with joy, a light as bright and dazzling as the stars in the night sky.
He used to have a deep prejudice against domestically produced games, believing that they were far inferior to imported games in terms of graphics, gameplay, and storyline.
But at this moment, this prejudice has been completely shattered by the shock and fun brought by this game.
Time slipped by unnoticed, and before we knew it, it was already late at night.
If he didn't have to get up early for work the next day, he would have loved to play all night long and explore the entire fascinating game world.
Since then, Lin Yu seems to have become a loyal spokesperson for "I Run an Inn in Chang'an 1".
During the company's lunch break, when colleagues sit together chatting, Lin Yu can't wait to start a conversation.
"You guys absolutely have to try this game, 'I Run an Inn in Chang'an 1,' it's so much fun! Chinese games can be this amazing now!"
As he spoke, he gestured with his hands to illustrate various scenes and operations in the game, his eyes filled with excitement and anticipation.
When meeting up with friends over the weekend, Lin Yu didn't forget to recommend this game to everyone.
At the dining table, the delicious food emitted an enticing aroma, and friends chatted and laughed, but Lin Yu's mind was entirely on the game.
He recounted the fun stories of running an inn in the game with great enthusiasm.
From how to cleverly attract guests with different needs to how to rationally plan the upgrade of the inn, every detail is described vividly.
"Did you know that in games, you sometimes encounter some particularly picky customers?"
"But as long as you meet their requirements, you can get a generous reward. It's really interesting!"
At first, both colleagues and friends were skeptical of Lin Yu's recommendation.
In their minds, domestically produced cartridge games always seem to be synonymous with shoddy production.
A colleague frowned, looking puzzled, and said, "How good can domestically produced cartridge games be?"
"The games I've played before had rough graphics and monotonous gameplay, and I don't want to waste my money."
Another friend chimed in, "Yeah, and 120 yuan isn't cheap either; it's about one-eighth or one-ninth of our salary."
"What if it's not fun? Then it'll all be for nothing."
But Lin Yu did not give up because of this.
He continued to enthusiastically introduce the game's unique features to everyone.
From innovative gameplay and rich storylines to patriotic support for domestically produced games, and so on.
He tried to make everyone feel the charm of this game.
Lin Yu patted his chest and assured him, "Trust me, you'll definitely love it after you play it."
"At first, I didn't believe that domestic games could be this good, but this one really broke my expectations."
Thanks to Lin Yu's persistent efforts, everyone finally couldn't resist his enthusiasm and nodded in agreement to give it a try.
After all, in this era, management-style cartridge games are truly a first.
Even among the cartridge games from those island nations, it seems there isn't this type.
Someone joked, "Lin Yu, if this game isn't fun, you'll have to treat us to a meal as an apology."
Lin Yu responded confidently, "I definitely won't let you down. If it's not fun, I'll treat everyone to a big meal!"
As for lending him the game cartridges, Lin Yu refused without even thinking about it.
