Chapter 284 Unexpected Surprise

Sun Huan is a freshman who came to BJ from other places to study in college. After studying on weekdays, his favorite place to go is the computer room of the school.Because he went there frequently, he got acquainted with a group of old students from the computer interest group early on, but unlike those old students who like to play computer games, Sun Huan has been in the computer room for so long, and almost rarely touches those games in the computer , it’s not that he doesn’t like games, but because he is a game controller, he likes games on home consoles and arcades, and he likes to use handles and joysticks to control them. If you let him play with a mouse and keyboard, He will have a feeling of not knowing where to put his hand, in short, it is uncomfortable.Because of this, the teacher in charge of the computer room prefers him, at least classifying him as someone who uses computers for serious work, so the teacher usually turns a blind eye to his occasional all-night work. One eye, accommodating.

Sun Huan went to the computer room to complete the amateur computer courses (computer courses for non-computer majors), the most important thing is that the computer room can access the Internet. Although it is only limited to the inside of the education network, ICQ (special edition of education network) can also be used , you can go to forums and chat rooms to communicate, and even websites like "Vagabond Tribe" also have education network servers.As a game console controller, Sun Huan's biggest hobby is to collect information about game consoles, because his family conditions are not very good, although it is not a big problem for him to go to school, but he spent thousands of dollars to buy one. It is impossible to even think about a machine that can play games, so his collection for so long is nothing more than a Pyramid learning machine type II that was eliminated by relatives, plus three boxes of game cassettes, whether it is genuine or pirated. It is a pile of "Video Game Software" accumulated on weekdays.

Although the conditions are tough, and although those game consoles after the Nintendo Famicom can only exist in writing and in Sun Huan’s imagination, he has never given up on his hobby. After entering university last year, he saw a few old students playing games. He was also touched by the personal homepage, and had an idea in his mind. He wanted to make a personal homepage with the theme of video games, and it was mainly based on the history of video games. He even thought of the name of the homepage, called "Game Editor" Chronicle", because he knows that it is impossible to collect the latest video game information on his own strength, and it is better to avoid the facts and make false ones.

On a Friday night in mid-June, Sun Huan came to the computer room as usual. After finishing the simple homework of the computer course, he opened his ICQ stealth hook-up line, opened his browser, and logged in to the "Homeless Tribe" website he often visited. I plan to see if there is any update in the "Game History" section, maybe I can find suitable information to use in his "Game Chronicle" website.

As soon as he entered the forum, a small window popped up, saying "You have a new message". Sun Huan casually clicked on the shortcut on the small window and glanced at it. It's like the glue is stuck, and it can't be removed again.

The message sent to Sun Huan was as follows: "Ah, hello user, due to your outstanding contribution in the game console naming activity last year, you have been selected as a lucky user, and the prize is a set of 'DreamBox128 )' game console and a set of game vouchers, please leave your personal identity and contact information (including ICQ, contact number, and mailing address) in the reply, and we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you how to receive the prize. Manager]"

Sun Huan rubbed his eyes and glanced at the computer screen again. The content of the message window on it had not changed at all. He pulled his thigh hard again. It hurt, it hurt too much, but he was in a very happy mood. Because this shows that he is neither wrong nor dreaming, he really won the lottery, and it is also the "dream treasure box" of the domestic host that he has dreamed of.

Last year, when Sun Huan heard that there was a domestic game console, he was very excited, and immediately rushed to the forum to participate in the name-calling activity. At that time, there were not many people like him.When the voting was posted on the "Homeless Tribe" website, he also voted for his own name, but he did not expect to be elected with a high number of votes.After the voting is over, the matter is over. Although Sun Huan is very concerned about the domestic game console, he also knows that this kind of game console will definitely not be cheap. When it was launched, it was not 4000 yuan, at least [-] yuan. , It’s not something he can afford at all, but he still has a plan. He plans to look for part-time jobs or tutoring opportunities during the summer vacation every year, and spend two or three summer vacations trying to save some money. The price of the "treasure box" should also drop, so it's time to buy it.But what he didn't expect at all was that he just made up a name at random, and in the end he was lucky enough to get a set of "Fantasy Treasure Box" game console and a set of game exchange coupons. I am extremely grateful for my decision to participate in the naming interaction.

Thinking of this, Sun Huan couldn't help celebrating secretly in his heart. If he was at home, he would definitely jump up excitedly at this moment, but after all, he was in the computer room of the school, and the teacher in charge of the computer room was also present, so that he could continue to surf the Internet for free in the future. , He had no choice but to temporarily bury his joy in his heart.

After clicking the "Reply" button in the message window, Sun Huan wrote down his real name, the name and major of the university he attended, and his ICQ number, but when it came time to contact him, he couldn't help hesitating.As a student, a mobile phone that can contact people anytime, anywhere is too expensive for him. There is a 201 phone in the dormitory, but at this critical moment, if people can't get through, it will be his loss. But it's big.After hesitating for a while, he still wrote down the number of the 201 phone, and specially attached the time when he might be in the dormitory in the last week. After all, this was his only choice, but he was still thinking about it while writing. : "It seems that I have to communicate with my buddies in the dormitory."

After filling in the information and pressing the send button, Sun Huan didn't intend to stay any longer. Although it was impossible for people to keep an eye on his reply this late at night, the sudden surprise had already disturbed his mind. He didn't bother to read the pinned post on the "Fantasy Treasure Box" game host discussion that he had to visit next time. After packing up his things, he hurriedly left the computer room, which surprised the teacher who was used to him staying up all night.

Hurrying back to the dormitory, the roommates who had gone out for friendship hadn’t come back yet, Sun Huan put down the things in his hands, and walked around the room for a while, unable to calm down his excitement, he simply opened the drawer and dug out the The special edition of "Dream Treasure Box Journey" given by someone else had a slightly ink-scented page when he opened it. He decided to take a good look at this "Dream Treasure Box" named by himself tonight.

……

The same thing happened repeatedly at almost the same time. Netizens who participated in the nomination activity at the beginning received similar forum messages as Sun Huan, but the difference is that the prizes are of a lower grade, and the best is only 1000 yuan. The "Fantasy Treasure Box" game console limited-time discount coupon and a set of game exchange coupons, the worst is only a 500 yuan "Dream Treasure Box" game console limited-time discount coupon and a game exchange coupon, but it was a surprise after all. This is especially true for those who originally intended to purchase the "Fantasy Treasure Box" game console but only postponed the purchase due to economic factors. With the support of these exchange coupons and discount coupons, many people's purchase plans can be fulfilled. In advance, you don't have to suffer for a long time for this.

Some lucky ones were so happy that they posted the good news on the forum. Although the contents of the post were written calmly, in the eyes of those netizens who did not participate in the name-calling activity, this is simply naked Show off, making their eyes glow green one by one.

……

"Dingling", the 201 phone in the dormitory rang cheerfully. Sun Huan picked up the phone and said, "Hello, who can I call?"

After sending out his contact information last Friday night, after in-depth communication and promises of several "traitorous treaties", Sun Huan finally became a full-time telephone student in the dormitory. Almost all of them stood by the 201 phone.It's a pity that every time I happily picked up the phone, and just said a few words, I transferred it to other people. The only time I was looking for him was a female classmate who asked him to borrow books.

At the beginning, the roommates in the same dormitory would come over to listen when Sun Huan picked up the phone, but after a few days, they gradually lost interest, so at noon on the fourth day, Sun Huan picked up the phone again At that time, no one came over to listen.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Sun Huan here?" A strange sweet voice came from the phone.

Sun Huan was stunned for a moment, after all, no one usually used the term "Sir" to address him, which made him a little uncomfortable, but then he replied instinctively: "I am, may I ask who is looking for me? "

"Mr. Sun, hello! I am Zhao Qian, a staff member of the marketing department of Fengyun Interactive. Our company is responsible for the sales of the 'Fantasy Treasure Box' game console in the mainland this time, and you were lucky enough to get a A 'Fantasy Treasure Box' game console and some game coupons. But before we officially send out the prizes, we need to check some information." The strange sweet voice said again.

"Oh, tell me what information you need." Sun Huan was very excited. The call he had been waiting for for several days finally came, and he made a victory gesture to the buddies in the same dormitory. Of course, he did not forget answer.

"Okay, let's start with the forum account first. Mr. Sun, what is the forum account you registered with 'Vagabond Tribe'?"

"Ah, smoke, yes, yes, smoke is the smoke of cigarettes."

……

After repeated questions and answers, Sun Huan drove away a few troublemakers around him, and finally heard Zhao Qian's affirmative reply from the phone: "Mr. Get your prize. First, within three days, we will send an ID verification code to your ICQ, and then you have two ways to claim the prize. One is after July 7, and we will follow the mailing address you provided Direct door-to-door delivery, the other is that you can apply for pick-up at any of our game stores, this method requires you to provide an identity verification code, and it is also after July 15. As for which method to use, you can decide on your own Choose what works best for you."

Sun Huan hesitated for a moment. He already planned to work and study during the summer vacation. He even applied for the dormitory with the school, but it seemed inappropriate to put such a valuable thing in the dormitory. TVs are only installed in the dormitories, and there are only game consoles without display devices, which is as annoying as drinking tea without a cup.

"Boss, is there something wrong? It's okay, just tell me." This was what the roommate who was a little far away couldn't hear the situation clearly.

"Yes, Boss, it can be placed in the dormitory, and I will take care of the TV set!" a roommate said brazenly.

Several other roommates also expressed their opinions one after another. Some suggested renting a house outside, and they asked friends for help. Anyway, all kinds of strange ideas came to their heads. In a word, the "Dream Treasure Box" game console Be sure to get it as quickly as possible, so that everyone will have a good time.

Listening to everyone's gossip, Sun Huan was dumbfounded. Since these buddies heard about the game console, his status in the dormitory has risen sharply, and he was promoted from the original sixth to No. .1 position, although it is not a turned serf to sing, but the treatment in the dormitory has obviously changed a lot, at least when squatting in the dormitory to watch the phone these days, someone even packs and delivers three meals a day Come.

"You are not afraid of people from the apartment office coming to check the house. Don't forget that the brothers in the dormitory were caught last week, and even the TV they bought with a piece of money was confiscated. Are you not worried?" Sun Huan didn't dare to agree to his suggestion casually. Taking away a second-hand TV is only a few hundred yuan, but if the "Fantasy Treasure Box" game console is taken away, it will kill him.

"It's okay, it's summer vacation next month, and those guys in the apartment will not be so diligent. When school starts again, the dormitory will also have a TV. If it doesn't work, let's just disguise the 'Dream Box' as a computer." .” A roommate persuaded again.

Sun Huan's thoughts were also a little shaken. Originally, he didn't know what to do with his "dream treasure box". touched him.That's right, it is said that the computer has appeared in the senior dormitory two or three years earlier. Although it is only an outdated 486 computer, it has also brought endless fun to many people. The reason for learning computer is to play games aboveboard, or to watch pirated small DVDs in the name of learning English.

"Maybe you can spend a little money to equip the 'Dream Box' with a keyboard and mouse!" Sun Huan thought in his heart, even a computer monitor can be used, anyway, the "Dream Box" game console can be connected to an ordinary monitor, plus The keyboard and mouse can definitely pretend to be a computer. Although he is not interested in playing games with these two things, nothing is more important than the safety of the "Fantasy Treasure Box" game console.

"Mr. Sun, what are you thinking?" Zhao Qian's sweet voice came again from the phone.

Sun Huan didn't hesitate any more, and simply replied: "I choose you to deliver the goods to your door, which is the address of the school dormitory I provided, and the contact number remains the same, but I hope that the delivery time can be arranged after 05:30 in the afternoon. There must have been someone in the dormitory at that time."

"Okay, Mr. Sun, our staff will contact you before coming to the door. Don't worry, even if you can't contact for a while, your prize will always be saved for you."

"Thank you!" Sun Huan put down the phone in his hand, and finally jumped up uncontrollably, shouting again and again, and his heart was extremely excited, and it was only 26 days before he got the "Dream Treasure Box" game console...
