The opening of Hong Kong comprehensive is 300 million

Chapter 9 My site listens to me

Firecrackers blared, gongs and drums blared, and people gathered in front of Fengyun Game City.

It has been promoted continuously for seven days, and everyone in Hong Kong knows about it.

Yang Suiyun spent a lot of money to buy a building in this relatively prosperous area before. It has seven floors, of which the first to fourth floors have been transformed into game halls, and each floor is equipped with a magically modified Raspberry Pi 400 and the simplified version of Raspberry Pi 400, the former is used as a microcomputer, and the latter is a game console. The two versions total 250 units, of which 20 units are the modified version.

The Raspberry Pi 400 will be sold separately after some small changes, and it will be named Raspberry Pi Pro, but it will not be connected to an LCD monitor, but will be connected to the TV through the AV interface.

This is 1984, the VGA interface has not yet been introduced, and the current world is dominated by "big ass" CRT monitors, and LCD monitors are too high-end to be sold in large quantities.

It was not until 1987 that IBM officially released the first monitor with a VGA interface.

In order to hang Nintendo Famicom and Sega SG-1000, Yang Suiyun has prepared a simplified version of Raspberry Pi 400, named Raspberry Pi Lite.

A Raspberry Pi Lite, a 17-inch LCD monitor, a USB game controller, and a wired headset are placed on a simple table.

As a game console, the simplified Raspberry Pi 400 is not in the shape of a keyboard, but a rectangular box the size of a palm.

The modified version of the Raspberry Pi 400 is placed separately, not in the same area as the cheap Raspberry Pi Lite.

The modified version of Raspberry Pi 400 comes with three USB 2.0 ports. The Raspbian operating system includes minesweeper, solitaire, freecell, a pinyin input method, Cangjie input method, calculator, notepad, calendar, moon walker simulator, and A stripped-down version of LibreOffice that only contains text documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.

Among them, through the moon walker simulator, you can play many games, and many games can support stand-alone mode and LAN mode.

The Raspbian operating system is very simple, only the taskbar, start menu, and desktop.

There are only shortcuts to the simplified version of LibreOffice, the Moon Rover Simulator, the Recycle Bin, a help document, and the save folder on the desktop.

Others, such as My Documents, My Computer, My Network Places, are all missing.

Data is allowed to be saved, but by default it is only allowed to be saved in the save folder on the desktop.

……

Everyone rushed in, wanting to see the characteristics of this store, which is called the world's first computer game city.

From the first to the fourth floors, each floor has a relatively large service desk, and the waiter also serves as a salesperson, selling Raspberry Pi Pro, Raspberry Pi Lite and games.

There are 10 waiters on each floor, 6 men and 4 women.

Now the waiters are busy, explaining how to get started for those who don't know the situation.

"Non-members, 5 yuan per hour; after spending 100 yuan to apply for a membership card, ordinary members are 4 yuan per hour, senior members are 3 yuan, and supreme members are 2 yuan.

It should be noted that only a one-time recharge of 1000 yuan can be promoted to a senior member, and a recharge of 10000 yuan can be promoted to a supreme member.

It is allowed to cancel the membership and return the card, but only half of the balance will be returned. "

After learning about the charging standard, everyone couldn't help but gasped. It was so expensive, much more expensive than arcade halls.

The game currency in the arcade hall is only a few cents, if you don't get a card to play for an hour, it costs five yuan, is there any reason?

The balance is only refunded in half?Wang Defa, how dare you!
What, choose a non-member?alright, you win.

I don't know if there is any reason, but there must be people who are willing to spend five yuan to try it.

"Little girl, the fee is so expensive, how many games are there?"

"Not many, there seem to be 50 games, all kinds of games, you..."

"Stop talking, here, ten yuan, bring the card!"

As a wall hanging, Yang Suiyun modified the following games through the idea workshop.

Racing Game: Need for Speed
Casual games: Great Wall of Tetris (ie "Tetris"), Bubble Bobble
Yang Suiyun firmly believes that with the above games, he is enough to rule the game industry, let Nintendo and Sega withdraw from the console circle, and honestly become game software developers.

Seeing that the five of Chen Haonan gathered on the first floor, Yang Suiyun quickly waved to them.

"Haonan, Shanhe, you two go to the fourth floor. Daming, Da Er, you go to the second floor. Liang Er, you go to the third floor to form a team with Li Jiayuan. Do things according to the previous training. If anyone makes trouble, notify Brother Long and Feihong Brother and Brother Biao."

Four people can fight, and it is just right for one person to be responsible for the first floor.

The five of them didn't expect Brother Yun to be assigned like this, and couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, especially Liang Er.

Seeing the five people froze in place, Yang Suiyun said angrily: "Now we're in a team of two, so we won't be sure in the future. What, you've all come out to do things, and your mentality hasn't adjusted yet? Do you think you're in school?"

Seeing that Brother Yun was about to lose his temper, the five turned around quickly.

"Liangzi, we have reminded you that smoking is not allowed in the hall, and if you want to smoke, you can go to the smoking room."

"Wow, what's wrong? Smoking is not allowed in arcade halls. You charge so much here that you don't even allow smoking!"

"Don't talk nonsense, we allow smoking, but you need to go to the smoking room."

"Pujie, are you crazy? The smoking room is so far away, why don't you come here with an ashtray?"

"If you follow the rules, we will call you handsome. If you are not satisfied, you can check out and leave. If you continue to provoke and make trouble, we will have to follow the rules!"

"Huh, you actually threatened the guests and drove them away?"

"Little boy, it's very difficult for us to do this!"

Yang Suiyun turned his head and looked at the source of the sound, and found that it was three men exuding a strong aura.

It is normal for young and Dangerous to come to play, and it is expected that young and Dangerous will cause trouble. Yang Suiyun believes that those who come to collect protection fees will not be absent.

But the problem is that Yang Suiyun never thought of pampering young and Dangerous, let alone paying protection fees.

"Boss!" Seeing Yang Suiyun, the waiter hurriedly greeted him.

The three of them took a closer look and were overjoyed. It turned out that the boss was just a brat.

This kind of kid has no background, no strength, no experience, so it's best to be careful.

"It turns out that you are the boss. You came just in time, and you didn't provide an ashtray. It's really shameful!"

Turning the thumb, Yang Suiyun said with a serious face: "The smoking room is over there, you can either go there, or pay the bill and leave."

One person laughed and said: "I don't know how to praise!"

Yang Suiyun looked down at the three of them, and said with a smile, "Praise? Why don't you apply for a Supreme Membership Card, and you can enjoy exclusive access to the Supreme Box. You can smoke or drink there, as you like."

The three of them stared at Yang Suiyun coldly. A supreme membership card costs [-] Hong Kong dollars. Are you stealing money?
The people around smelled the danger and subconsciously moved away.

Yang Suiyun waved to the other waiters who rushed over, and said, "Go to work and take care of the customers."

It's a busy time, how could it be possible to waste manpower on these little shrimps!

After speaking, he looked at the three of them and said word by word: "I don't care who you are or which boss you are with, as long as you dare to make trouble, I will let you come in vertically and go out horizontally."

Sweeping Yang Suiyun up and down with their eyes, the three of them showed disdainful smiles: How hard can a little boy be?

Yang Suiyun made a gesture of invitation and said, "Either continue playing the game, or go to the smoking room, or pay the bill and leave, or I will send you out!"

"Send you..." One of the grumpy people cursed and grabbed the keyboard on the desktop at the same time, intending to use it as a weapon to give the kid in front of him a big fight.

However, Yang Suiyun's movements were faster, and he stretched out his left hand, grasped his neck accurately, grabbed his neck firmly, and lifted it up.

Those disharmonious words in the back were crushed by Yang Suiyun's big hands.

Seeing their companion being mentioned by Yang Suiyun like a duck, the other two cursed, raised their fists and slammed at Yang Suiyun's head.

Moving his left hand to the right, he directly greeted someone's head as a shield, and at the same time, Yang Suiyun punched out his right fist.

There were two muffled bangs, followed by two screams.

When everyone looked at it, they found that one person was hit in the face, with nosebleeds, and the other was sweating on his forehead, holding his trembling right hand with his left hand, staring at Yang Suiyun in horror.

Glancing at the opponent's disused right hand, Yang Suiyun sneered, and said triumphantly, "The iron fist equipped by Lao Tzu can be regarded as the hand of Geng, Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. One punch is a young and Dangerous boy!"

Holding a young and Dangerous boy with one hand, Yang Suiyun ordered the waiter beside him: "Bring this trash with you."

The waiter nodded, without saying a word, he directly grabbed the injured hand of the other party, and pulled him out.

Outside the gate, Yang Suiyun violently pushed the two of them out.

Unable to resist the huge force, the two of them flew forward and fell heavily on the street.

Yang Suiyun looked at the hand that was still intact with a smile, and asked, "Who are you from?"

Overwhelmed by the pain, the young and Dangerous boy who was questioned didn't dare to speak harshly, and quickly replied: "Our boss is a volcano, he asked us to come."

It turned out to be him, Yang Suiyun knew in his heart, it seems that he had to warn the other party first, lest the business be greatly affected.

But it's been so long since Brother Jie's incident, why did he send three people here?

"Tell Huanhuo, I don't care about today's affairs, and next time, I will personally go over and put a cast on his hands and feet! Get lost!"

Thinking that the other party had crippled one of his arms with just one punch, Young and Dangerous Boy's back felt cold, and he immediately lifted his leg and left.

"Unless you use a gun, you can't afford to mess with him!" Young and Dangerous didn't want to become a useless person, and planned to hide aside and pretend to be dead after reporting the truth.

From then on, there was nothing serious on the first floor, even if there were violent and impulsive young and Dangerous boys swearing, no one dared to do it again.

Yang Suiyun crippled the hand of a young and Dangerous boy with one punch, and many people saw it.

The young and Dangerous boys are not stupid, no matter how well they do things, they will not be able to get a position, at most they will get tens of thousands of dollars, but this amount of money can't cure the disabled hand.

Noticing that another group of young men who were sloppy came in, Yang Suiyun asked the waiter to remind them.

"Let me solemnly remind you once again that smoking is prohibited in the hall, uncivilized behaviors such as spitting and littering are prohibited, and fighting and making trouble are prohibited... If anyone dares to break the rules and commit a crime knowingly, we will personally send him to the ambulance!"

The younger boys were suddenly angry: Are you targeting us by doing this?

Although we smoke, drink, spit, quarrel and fight, we are all energetic and handsome!

But after seeing the beating pectoralis major of the waiter, the younger boys silently lowered their heads and walked towards the service desk.

You are big and you are right!
The leading young man scanned the product cabinets and asked, "Pretty girl, how do you sell your game consoles and games?"

The waitress smiled and said, "The price of the Raspberry Pi Lite is about the same as that of the Nintendo FC, only 499 Hong Kong dollars. However, there is a promotion this month. If you buy a Raspberry Pi Lite and add any game, it will be 99 Hong Kong dollars cheaper."

Surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the younger boys.

The leader quickly asked, "How much is a game?"

The waitress smiled and said: "The price range of the company's games is 499 Hong Kong dollars to 699 Hong Kong dollars, and the external price is 69 US dollars to 99 US dollars."

Everyone knows without thinking that the foreign version is more expensive.

It's expensive and it's the bird text, no one will buy the foreign version.

The leader asked again: "Is the game console the same as the one in the store?"

"The game console is the Raspberry Pi Lite, which is very small." The waitress nodded slightly, and then added, "But there is also a model in the store called the Raspberry Pi Pro, which is a miniature computer that can not only play games, I can still work."

Speaking of this, the waitress took out the Raspberry Pi Lite and said with a smile: "This is the Raspberry Pi Lite that only supports game functions. It doesn't come with a keyboard, and it doesn't have so many accessories."

Everyone looked at it and found that the Raspberry Pi Lite is only a little bigger than the palm of your hand, and the thickness is no more than two fingers.

"Compared to Nintendo and Sega's game consoles, the Raspberry Pi Lite is lighter, smaller, more power-efficient, and more powerful," the waitress added confidently.

The leader asked curiously, "How much is the Raspberry Pi Pro?"

If there is a time traveler present, they will definitely answer: "It's only $100."

It's a pity that there can't be a second traveler on this plane.

The waitress still kept smiling and said, "The Hong Kong version has a discounted price this month, only 37999 Hong Kong dollars, and the foreign version is 4999 U.S. dollars."

Everyone felt their scalps go numb, this thing is too expensive, it can be called a sky-high price!
Anyone who understands the computers of this era will not think that the Raspberry Pi Pro is expensive.

In October 1981, the world's first personal computer, the IBM 10, went on sale, with a starting price of $5150 (excluding graphics cards and black and white monitors, and fewer applications), and a high-end version costing more than $1565.By 3000, IBM 1985 sales reached nearly 5150 million units. In 100, the IBM 1987 was discontinued.

In January 1983, the Apple Lisa debuted at a price of $1, bundled with seven commercial software at random.

It can be seen that the lighter and more powerful Raspberry Pi Pro only sells for $4999, which can be called the price of cabbage, and it is [-]% the conscience of the industry!

What, you said it was only $100?

Please, the price is not calculated in this way. If you only count the time cost, the Raspberry Pi is worth tens of thousands of dollars!

Mo BB, my site listens to me!

The leader suddenly took out today's newspaper and pointed to the headline "Shocked!The core secrets of the Raspberry Pi Pro were leaked, and the loss is incalculable! ", said with a smile: "Is it true?"

The waitress turned cold and said, "No comment!"

Everyone laughed and cried.

It’s really a hack, the Raspberry Pi Pro went on sale on the first day, and a set of software activation codes worth thousands of dollars was leaked.

Losing thousands of dollars for every Raspberry Pi Pro sold is bad enough!
