On December 1st, only the last month of this year is coming to an end.
Braving the biting cold wind, squeezing into the crowded subway, and experiencing the "ordeal" before going to work for the new day, Li Zhiliang finally arrived at the company after spending two hours.

Having been in the industry for more than two years, Li Zhiliang has become very comfortable with this job. After saying hello to his colleagues, he sat down in his seat and started a new day's work.
Li Zhiliang took out the mobile phone provided by the company, casually clicked on the game bar that had just joined the platform today, and selected today's evaluation target.
"65M, why is this mobile game so small? It probably doesn't have much content. Let's finish this first."
Soon, Li Zhiliang selected a new game called: "Civilization and War". The icons of the game app are very exquisite. The main theme of the icons is knives, swords, bows, and shields, stacked up in a three-dimensional shape, and the background is a Green Little Farm, the small APP icon is filled with a lot of content, closely following the meaning of the game name, not dazzling, unconventional, and very eye-catching.
"This icon is well done."
After carefully looking at the icon of the mobile game app, Li Zhiliang was very fond of this game.
It’s only 65M, and under the company’s 100M optical fiber network wireless wiff, the game can be downloaded in just ten seconds.
Li Zhiliang curiously opened the game APP icon. Immediately, a burst of rich game background music sounded, passionate war songs, roars of monsters, and the collision of metal weapons. The game music continued to play from the speakers of the phone along with the beating of the opening screen of the game.
Li Zhiliang trembled all over and stared at the game screen.
The charging cavalry has flying hooves, the soaring dragon soars into the sky, the roaring monster is terrifying, the farmers working on the farm, the lively market, the busy dock... As the opening screen of the game is played, various game screen contents are constantly presented. .
The game opening screen ended after ten seconds, and a dialog box for creating a character was revealed.
"Holy shit, shit, the game startup animation is so lifelike and so huge. This game is only 65M! How did you do it? How did you do it?" Li Zhiliang stared at the background behind the game dialog box and shouted in disbelief. stand up.
"Zhiliang! What aroused you! You yelled so early in the morning!"
"Yes! Brother Li, what happened?"
“…”
Hearing Li Zhiliang's cry, his colleagues asked curious questions one by one.
At this time, Li Zhiliang had no time to talk to them. His attention had been attracted by the content displayed in the game dialog box.

Race: (select bar)
Talent: (selection bar)
Made in: (select bar)
…
The small mobile phone screen displays a lot of information that needs to be selected, and it takes two pages to scroll down to display all the content.
This game feels so complicated, and it actually has mode selection. There are three modes to choose from: mobile game mode, VR glasses mode, and game chair mode.
"Is it true? There is such a function?" Li Zhiliang was surprised and was full of expectations for this game.
Li Zhiliang skillfully filled in the commonly used character names, selected a human race, a soldier occupation, and randomly selected others. He said a few words, confirmed his voiceprint, and eagerly chose to enter the game in mobile game mode.
"Wow! This game is incredible!" As soon as the game character entered the game, Li Zhiliang was immediately stunned by the game screen.
The screen of the mobile phone shows a game screen of a human military camp. In the background is a huge fortress, and in and out of the background are various soldiers training and moving.
"This, this, how can this game be like this?" Li Zhiliang's eyes bulged and he was completely confused.
"Xiao Li, what happened?" Zhang Song walked up behind Li Zhiliang and asked curiously.
"Old Zhang, look at this game, it's incredible!" Li Zhiliang grabbed Zhang Song's hand and pointed at the phone screen excitedly.
"Well, the graphics are really exquisite and the operation is smooth. This kind of large-scale mobile game that is not turn-based is rare! It looks so interesting. What is this game called?" Zhang Song looked at the screen of his mobile phone, his eyes lit up and he was curious. asked.
"Haha, a big mobile game!" Li Zhiliang twitched the corner of his mouth, smiled, looked at Zhang Song's introduction, and said: "This game is called: Civilization and War, you can play it together."
"Well, you can play first! Don't wait for me, this game should be big!" Zhang Song said to Li Zhiliang, took out his mobile phone and started looking for the game "War and Civilization".
"No, it's only 65M, it's quick!" Li Zhiliang said with a weird smile.
Hearing this, Zhang Song was stunned for a moment. When he found out that "War and Civilization" was exactly what Li Zhiliang said, he was stunned.
"65M? Is this this model? Are you mistaken?" Zhang Song stared at Li Zhiliang and asked in disbelief.
"It's just that much anyway. You'll know after you look at it." Li Zhiliang said directly, not bothering to argue with him.
Zhang Song nodded silently and clicked to download the game on his phone.
Fifteen seconds passed, and the phone vibrated, indicating that the download was successful and the installation state began.
Soon, a burst of exciting game music played, and Zhang Song stared at the screen of his mobile phone, his hair standing on end.
"To play human, choose Austin-Coors City. We can form a team to play." Li Zhiliang said impatiently, holding his cell phone.
"Okay!" Zhang Song trembled slightly and nodded heavily.
