CHAPTER 1848: CHAPTER 1673: THE SIXTH SCENARIO

Millions?

Not much.

But absolute numbers don’t represent market share, Ge Feng knew this was just Huaxia’s inland data, and the fact that smartphones were not widely popular yet. In terms of occupancy rate, it was undoubtedly the first.

As for Alipay.

Ge Feng didn’t think it would be a match for Tang Qing.

First of all.

Tang Qing’s vision was far-reaching.

Secondly.

Tang Qing was also Ali’s major shareholder, so even if they fought tooth and nail, it was like a left arm fighting the right. The ones who might get hurt were the numerous competitors wanting a piece of the action from the sidelines.

This move.

It was simply brilliant.

"In the next twenty years, no entrepreneur in Huaxia will surpass you," Ge Feng exclaimed.

"Maybe,"

Tang Qing only smiled.

Want to surpass him?

The difficulty was not ordinary; even if he only calculated his own wealth and stood still while his assets shrunk tenfold, few Huaxia entrepreneurs could surpass him in the next decade.

Besides.

He couldn’t possibly stand still.

...

Evening.

Xin’an City.

Above the sky.

Underground.

Around the city.

Through cameras, countless people worldwide were watching this city, waiting for the moment a new scene would begin. Xin’an City’s city projection scene didn’t update frequently, and there were only five types so far.

First, Godzilla, but it appeared only a few days before the movie release.

Second, a city waterfall.

Third, the underwater world.

Fourth, a thunderstorm.

Fifth, icy snow.

Today.

It was the sixth scene, but had not started; no one knew what it would be, and this unknown was precisely exciting. On the streets, people were as excited as if money were about to fall from the sky.

Countdown.

Five minutes.

These five minutes.

Around the city.

The ring city projection began, where world-class companies were advertising on it. After several broadcasts, the effect of this advertising had been completely recognized, and naturally, the price soared.

Usually, the price wasn’t outrageous.

But today.

Five minutes before starting, twenty thousand dollars per second, just for today.

Calculating it.

These five minutes could bring sixty million dollars to the city in income, attracting envious eyes, yet they could only look unless they were willing to pay a high price for ’time’.

The key is.

Even buying it is useless.

Xin’an City.

Its exclusive conditions were nearly impossible to replicate.

In the city.

On the streets.

People took out their mobile phones, ready to take pictures.

It’s not easy to experience this.

It’s not about money.

It’s about having no place to stay.

"So looking forward to it."

"We don’t know what it will be."

"Never mind, it won’t disappoint us. Last time the thunderstorm was exhilarating; the huge lightning that streaked across the sky struck the ground and darted around the city. It was spectacular."

Besides praise.

Still praise.

Fast updates.

High quality.

No perfunctory effort, making them love it immensely.

"Especially that hundreds-meter-long light dragon circling around the city; the sound effects were fantastic, as if tearing the air apart. That lightning-condensed eye, I’ll never forget."

"..."

"And the icy snow, polar bears, penguins, mammoths, snowmen chasing and playing, even snowball fights between snowmen. The creativity and development capabilities are simply astonishing."

"..."

While chatting.

Everyone watched the time.

Waiting for the moment to first witness it.

Sixty seconds.

...

Fifty seconds.

...

Thirty seconds.

...

"Ten."

"Nine."

"..."

People unconsciously followed the countdown because it was projected at every corner of the city. Meanwhile, a gigantic countdown visible to everyone in the city appeared above the sky at ten seconds.

"Five."

"Four."

"..."

Chanting to the end, everyone shouted out.

"Zero."

Instantaneously.

The countdown vanished, no cheering, but silence ensued, eyes scanning around, fearing to miss something with a blink. At this time, the city’s transformation began.

On the ground.

Tufts of grass sprang out.

Indeed.

They sprang.

Numerous dots of light ascended, forming taller shrubs and large trees. This wasn’t the end; along the corners of the buildings, vines climbed up as if alive.

In some foyers.

They dangled directly from above.

When the vines stopped growing, leaves enlarged from small to large.

Flower blossoming.

Fruit bearing.

A gust of wind.

Leaves swayed, some fruits too large fell and instantly transformed into a small vine...

Hiss~~

The sound of countless inhalations.

Reflecting people’s astonishment.

"Beautiful."

"So beautiful."

"Is this a forest?"

"A city engulfed by vines, oh my."

"..."

People wanted to describe it, but found it hard to find words. This wasn’t the end. Just as they thought it was finished, on the ground, in the grass, and sky, ’creatures’ bounced out.

"Oh!!! So cute."

"How adorable."

"Oh my, I’m conquered by it."

"Sounds so lovely."

"..."

Exclamations arose from countless people. The ’creatures’ before their eyes weren’t found in reality, like extraterrestrial life, yet they perfectly fit the human definition of ’cute pet.’

Big eyes.

Cute expressions.

Soft fur.

Particle projections made everything look so interesting. Every type of creature emitted different sounds, even reacted to people’s movements.

For instance.

A little girl squatted on the ground, locking eyes with a big-eared cute creature.

Fingers twirling in front of its eyes.

Big ear’s eyes swirled too, turning several times, and at once, it fell to the ground with a thud, amusing the surroundings with laughter—indeed, there was hidden fun.

Thus.

The scene became somewhat unruly.

Soon.

"Mom, I want to take it home."

Such requests.

Were heard at various corners of the city.

"Can’t take it."

"No, I want to."

"This..."

While parents hesitated, a mobile phone ding-donged—a text message. Reading its content, parents felt speechless. It truly was a business society; everything seemed connected to business transactions.

The content was simple.

The holographic projection scene development company from Myanmar offered a pet module. As long as you have ’time,’ you can download various pets to play with children. If ’time’ seems too expensive, plush toys can be purchased.

So.

This is where they waited for them.

However.

Parents weren’t opposed, as there was no coercion. Besides, playing was free; to bring it home, naturally, required payment. It’s just like a mall letting you try on clothes but taking it home for free?

Dream on.

There isn’t such logic.

At this moment.

Ring city advertisement projection displayed two ads.

First.

Selling pet projections.

Second.

Selling pet toys.

After viewing it.

Everyone could only feel they’ve been tricked again. Besides, with such development costs, electricity, and time, how could it not be profitable? Moreover, these unseen cute pets indeed were adorable.

If moved to the screen.

Hmm?

Movie?
