Chapter 955: Our fifth New Year’s Eve together, Happy New Year!
【Wow, I'm really number one on the leaderboard?】
Wow, wow, this is the first time I've felt that global rankings are made of paper; they break so easily!
【What?! Is this a global ranking? I thought it was just a service area ranking.】
【These types of games don't use the same ranking system as mobile games; overall, they're quite hardcore, and breaking new records isn't easy.】
When Xiao He successfully took the top spot on the leaderboard, the live stream room erupted in excitement.
What a satisfying read! What a satisfying read!
Who doesn't love reading fast-paced, action-packed novels?!
Click to enter the live stream and watch Brother Xiao break the world record! Isn't this hardcore live stream on New Year's Eve awesome enough?
As a result, the fans spread the word, and the number of viewers in the live stream surged again.
This was the first time Xiao He had ever seen so many people. He quickly and nervously used the computer next to him to maintain the situation in the live stream, and also set up several AI assistants to manage the increasingly chaotic order of the live stream.
Among them were a few racing players who had come after hearing the news.
【No way, Brother Xiao, are you serious? You really broke Kanli's record?】
【That's amazing! We've been trying to break that record in our circle for ages, and you just broke it! Incredible!】
【I heard Kanli and the others are still completely bewildered! It's hilarious; I'm tempted to show them the recording of this livestream.】
However, these comments flashed so fast that from Xiao He's live stream perspective, they only appeared in the comment area for about a second before being instantly replaced by other comments. The sheer speed of these comments was overwhelming, so Xiao He didn't notice the discussions among the actual racing players.
And the official New Year's Eve is almost here.
Xiao He checked the time and discussed it with the fans in the live chat. They decided to go directly to a location on the map to film the New Year's Eve celebration.
Although Deep Blue Speed is a competitive game, it also emphasizes immersion and realism. Therefore, the scenery in many places is very beautiful, and you can also adjust the time and weather within the map—from morning to sunset, to late at night, or from bright sunshine to extreme weather such as snow, rain, fog and strong winds, etc. The game can adjust all of these, which makes it very realistic.
In addition to the cool and stylish sports cars, many players later came to play this game specifically to take pictures of the scenery. They didn't play the game for racing, but mainly to drive around and take beautiful photos.
The lake in the Yizhuang map is quite famous, so Xiao He plans to change the time from daytime to nighttime, choose a clear and starry day, buy some fireworks, and then lead everyone to wait for the countdown together by the Ming Lake in the Yizhuang map in casual mode.
When the time came, he set off cyber fireworks by the lake, which everyone in the live stream could see, as if they were spending the last day of the year together and welcoming the new year together.
—From a certain perspective, this kind of setting is indeed quite romantic, isn't it?
So while everyone else was in chaos, Xiao He had already led everyone to the shore of Ming Lake.
The game's graphics of Ming Lake are so high-quality that they look like a real scene.
A dense carpet of stars lay across the inky blue night sky, unobstructed by a single cloud. Their clear, gentle light was reflected in the center of the lake. When the evening breeze rippled across the water, the shimmering silver light danced on the surface, and the blue sports car quietly parked by the lake seemed to have fallen into the Milky Way.
On the gleaming sports car paint, the shimmering light of starlight and lamplight occasionally flashes by, and even the grass and trees blend together in varying shades of color between the light and darkness of the night.
Xiao He chose a very good spot and went straight into the game's specially designed professional shooting mode, hanging the countdown in the shadows of the corner, where the numbers were only faintly visible.
All other game system screens were hidden.
Throughout the live stream, it seemed that only the starry sky in front of them and that cool, dark blue sports car remained.
The world fell silent.
Seeing this scene, countless viewers in the live stream frantically took screenshots to use as their computer desktop wallpapers, and some even started screen recording. The constantly scrolling chat became much quieter.
At this moment, it's as if they've shed the constraints of reality, no longer have any pressure, and there's no longer any distance between idols and fans, truly immersing themselves in this beautiful night.
Here you'll find idols, friends with shared interests, and strangers you might never know in everyday life.
They gathered here simply to temporarily escape the shackles of reality, to rest, regroup, and celebrate the arrival of the new year together.
As the clock ticked down beside the screen, the final ten seconds arrived.
【ten--】
【Nine--】
...
"three--"
"two--"
"one--"
In the scene, fireworks burst open on the lakeside, with colorful fireworks shooting into the night sky and blooming with brilliant colors. Then, the shimmering water caught the colorful light, and the reflection of the neon lights flowed on the lake surface and was reflected onto the car body on the lakeside.
The last car, a cool blue sports car with a high-tech feel, also had the same dazzling fireworks display.
The world around them was completely enveloped by the colorful lights and shadows, and they couldn't help but be deeply fascinated by the beautiful night view.
The vibrant energy of the virtual world, carried by the evening breeze under the fireworks, swept across the entire lakeside and, passing through the live stream camera, touched them.
And just like that, a smile unconsciously appeared on her face.
【Happy New Year!】
【Happy New Year!】
At this moment, the barrage of comments reached an unprecedented level of harmony, with everyone sending the same blessings. Xiao He also smiled and thanked them, offering his most sincere blessings in return.
This is his fifth New Year's Eve in the entertainment industry.
From a somewhat quiet New Year's Eve celebration at the beginning to millions of people celebrating the New Year together this year, he has come a long way in five years.
But this won't be the end, will it?
Xiao He raised his Coke and toasted everyone in front of the camera, making up for the missed glass-clinking gesture when the camera was actually rolling: "Cheers to the new year, a new beginning!"
【cheers!】
【Brother Xiao, I hope the new year will be even better!】
The fans in the live stream were also very happy. After that, Xiao He stopped playing the game and left the game screen on the scene of fireworks at night by the lake. He then chatted casually with everyone in the live stream.
Do you have any plans for the new year?
When Xiao He saw someone asking, he thought for a moment and then said, "I have a few projects that I haven't aired yet, and this year I will probably dedicate most of my schedule to a few sequels. I will take the rest of the time to rest. However, Director Hu of 'Travels in the Mountains and Rivers' has been asking about my schedule, and I am still considering it."
"I'm a little tired too. Everyone's been staring at me for so long, they must be getting visually fatigued, so I should take a break, haha."
Xiao He said this with a self-deprecating laugh, then coughed lightly, "Ahem, everyone remember me in the future, and I won't forget you all!"
The comments were surprisingly sincere:
【High emotional intelligence: I need to rest.】
【Low emotional intelligence: I'm going to try my luck in other areas.】
That's a pity.
【I'm dying of laughter at the venomous words of you people.】
