Reborn America, this is my time

Chapter 17 I Can Win!
Exsidy's people moved quickly, and within five minutes, they unloaded the game console from the Ford pickup.

After removing the tarpaulin, the brand-new machine attracted their attention like a magnet.

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

"The dark green shell is so bright? It seems that the 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, looking curiously at the arcade machine Ethan brought.

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

"Oh~Cool~" Pete Kaufman said with a smile: "Let the player play the role of a snake? This idea is quite creative!"

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

"The combination of appearance and content is the point that must be grasped when selling a machine. 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 also disclosed his work experience unreservedly, "Because I was still working in Mirowa two weeks ago."

"What?"

Before Ethan's words fell, Samuel Hawes, who was still watching the machine, screamed directly.

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

"Mi Luohua."

"Oh! My! God!"

Surprise suddenly appeared on Samuel Hawes's face, and he stretched out his right hand, holding Ethan tightly.

"Ethan? Ethan Jones, right? Oh! It's such a pleasure to meet you! You may not know it! I'm a fan of Professor Bell! His previous Odyssey is nothing short of a miracle! Can compress a computer into A briefcase as big as 13 games inside! My God! Professor Ralph Bell’s genius idea is simply a godsend! It must be a very happy thing to work with him, right? Huh?"

Ralph Bell is actually the inventor of the world's first home game console Odyssey. He made a prototype in 1966 and named it a brown box, but Mirov was just willing to invest in manufacturing and The company that released the brown box, so, in the industry, people respect Ralph Bell, who has genius ideas and creativity, and regards him as the father of video games.

As for Mi Luohua?
Capitalists are all alike, right?

"Probably." Ethan, who understood the key point, tilted his head and lied.

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

"Okay, Okay, Okay, cooperate, cooperate, cooperate."

Perhaps it was because the former employee of Mirowa was so awesome, so Samuel Hawes rubbed his hands and shouted at the employees beside him, "Pull a line for me."

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

A moment later, a circuit extending from the warehouse was sent to Samuel Hawes.

Connect the arcade machine with familiarity, press the power switch on the back of the buttocks, and when the circuit is connected, the sound effect of "ding ding ding ding ding" is also heard.

This voice stunned the guys at the scene.

In the next second, almost everyone laughed out loud.

"Jingle jingle jingle jingle?" Pete Kaufman sang straight out.

At the same time, his eyes were full of curiosity, "Ethan, if I heard correctly, this is "Jingle Bells", right? It's a Christmas song, why... it became the background of the game for you music?"

This question made Ethan pretend to be calm.

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

"I can't help it, because I don't have music bacteria and I don't have money. The former prevents me from composing music for the game, and the latter allows me to use "Jingle Bells" without copyright. After all, it is really hard to go to Hollywood to hire a special voice artist It is too expensive, and it is not affordable for a machine that has not yet been launched. Therefore, I can only use this kind of music without copyright to demonstrate that the machine can have such a function, but it is not important, right? Because it can be changed."

"Oh! This is really a genius decision."

The corner of Pete Kaufman's mouth twitched, and he said something against his will.

In the process of their communication, Samuel Hawes also studied the machine "Snake".

I saw him familiarly take out a 25-cent coin from his pocket and stuff it into the coin slot decisively. After a crisp ding, he stared at the screen with all his attention.

The sudden switching of the game interface meant the beginning of the game for a veteran like him, but when he moved the joystick, he found that the horizontal bars on the screen did not move.

"Is this bad?" Samuel Hawes turned his head suspiciously.

"Of course not." Ethan replied.

"But it doesn't move..." Samuel Hawes continued to move 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 reappeared.

"WTF???" Samuel Hawes was startled!
"Did I lose before I played?" He couldn't believe it.

The people in Eksidi who were surrounded by the side didn't understand what was going on, and everyone's face was filled with bewilderment.

The dumbfounded expression on his face made Ethan laugh and said, "Mr. Hawes, I can assure you that there is no problem with my game. If you think something is wrong, you can try again."

Before he finished speaking, Samuel Hawes tossed in the coin again.

Then, he widened his eyes as big as copper bells, 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 really work.

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

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

"Ding ding ding ding!"

"Oh! FXXk! So I can't touch myself!"

This discovery led Samuel Hawes to flip the coin again.

then……

"Ding ding ding ding!"

He is dead again!

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

After tossing coins three times in a row, he finally knew how to control himself in order to stay alive in the game.

"But how to clear the game in this case?" Samuel Hawes was very strange.

"Why don't you try hitting the white dot on the screen with the snake's head?" Pete Kaufman suggested.

"Crash into a white spot? Isn't that an obstacle? If you hit it, you will die!"

"But now there's nothing to hit! If you're so exhausted, can it pass the level?"

"Oh! Sxxt! It's your turn to die!"

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

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

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

"Ohhhhhh!!! I got it!"

This fact surprised Samuel Hawes.

"This game is to use snakes to eat white dots! As long as you eat more, you will get more points! When you reach a number, you will win!"

But unfortunately...

The idea is beautiful, the reality is very skinny.

When Samuel Hawes started to eat crazily according to the ideas he had researched, the little snake on the screen grew longer and longer, and the speed of reaching [-], [-], and [-] points increased. .

The sudden soaring speed caused the little snakes under Samuel Hawes to die again and again.

And the one who was holding the joystick was even more red-eyed!

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

Pete Kaufman, who found it interesting after watching it for a while, wanted to get started.

"No! I don't believe it! I won't be able to pass the test today?"

Samuel Hawes would not budge.

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

Pete Kaufman felt itchy and began to squeeze in front of the machine.

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

however--

When Game Over appeared on the screen again, Samuel Hawes had no intention of moving away, and angrily pulled out his pockets, wanting to do it again.

Then, he took out an empty one.

"Hua Q!" This fact made him curse.

Then, protecting the rocker with one hand, he roared angrily, "Quick, quick, give me some coins!"

The subordinates who received the order turned around immediately.

And Pete Kaufman was furious.

"Samuel!!!" he yelled, "You should let me go!"

"I'm here to feel it! I can win!" Samuel Hawes covered the joystick, not wanting to let go.

"But you just said it, one last time!" Pete Kaufman yelled.

"Is there? Why can't I remember?"

Samuel Hawes blinked like he lost his memory.

innocent face.

"Fxxxxxxx!" growled Pete Kaufman.

The roars of the two were fully seen by Ethan Jones.

Arms folded, he was leaning against the car, with a smile on his cheek.

He loves this scene!

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

Because all this means—

Mane!
