Section 9 Watching the Battle Simulator
Realizing that his ability has changed, Long Yun’s long-sanctified dream began to gradually wake up like the sprouts after the cold winter.
Immersed in the monotonous work every day, Long Yun no longer wanted to explore what the dream of the previous two days was. Although the work at hand was boring, since you have to do it well, there may be serious consequences when there is a problem with the car maintenance problem. No matter how beautiful the game is, you have to face reality.
Since he was obsessed with aviation competition and transferred to the military academy before he finished college, Long Yun's life has never lacked any ups and downs.
In this society where diplomas and background determine their personal future, and mainly the latter play a role, Long Yun, who has been hitting walls for a long time, is still working as a handyman in this small vehicle repair shop. Only here can Long Yun play his talent in mechanical and electrical, and this talent and ability can be recognized by others. He can exchange his knowledge and technology for income and temporarily support himself, and Long Yun is already quite content.
However, recognition is one thing, and salary is another.
He is busy for more than eight hours a day, and the six days a week, all he gets is a rather slim salary, and he cannot save much money Long Yun has no bad habits. And his dream - being able to participate in a real fighter competition is still an irrelevant fantasy.
Compared with the thrilling aviation competition, the air combat game that Long Yun has been playing before can be said to be just an amateur pastime. The professional competitive teams focus on at least a highly realistic flight simulator; the teams who just play games on the computer will not be considered as regular competitive soldiers. However, perhaps because of the slow pace of life, the aviation competitive industry in Blue Island is not developed, and there are not many teams that can use simulators. As for the fighter competition of real guys, it can be described as a bleak situation.
However, just recently, from the game chat room, Long Yun learned that the city's famous "Caiser" leisure club had purchased two new fighter simulators, which seemed to be available for paid use on the outside, which made him quite excited.
Because he had such a dark experience on the simulator when he was in the military academy in his early years, Long Yun had deliberately avoided everything related to the simulator before, so as not to arouse hidden pain in his heart. But now, he has begun to break free from the bond of fate. Although he knows that the simulator is expensive, even the rent is difficult to bear. This has inspired Long Yun's long-suppressed competitive spirit in his subconscious.
When he was at work the next day, he found Li Yan who was busy changing the battery for his car. Long Yun asked him if he knew that a club had purchased a simulator.
"Oh, are you talking about the 'Caesar' club? They are so lively now, and there are so many people going to watch the simulator game."
"Isn't that a nightclub? How could I buy something like an emulator?"
"I think there are many people who are fanatical airline competition in Blue Island now, just want to attract popularity."
He raised his arm and wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve. Li Yan put down his driver and took off his dirty velvet gloves. He knew about the introduction of the fighter simulator by the "Caiser" club. If it weren't for his busy work recently, he would have wanted to join in the fun and see what this high-end competitive professional equipment looks like.
Although several aviation competitive teams in this city also have their own training simulators, they are all not open to the public, just like babies. Competitive fans like themselves can only watch the broadcast on the big screen when there are competitions. No wonder, if the simulator is a thing that costs millions, if it is not a wealthy person like the club, they would probably not be willing to take it out for everyone to use, even if it is charged, they would not be able to bear the risk.
After confirming the accuracy of the news, Long Yun pondered for a moment.
"Then, when will we go and see the fun?"
"--What?"
Stopped the work in his hand, Li Yan's eyes widened, and his open mouth almost couldn't close.
As Long Yun's best friend, Li Yan has a good understanding of this serious guy. He knows a little about the heavy past that Long Yun experienced in the military academy and the inexplicable lack of space. Perhaps because of this difficult knot, Long Yun never goes to watch competitive games on site, and even the simulator hides far away. Sometimes when he sees him watching the game broadcast on TV, he rarely admits when asked. So in the entire repair shop, no one except Li Yan knows that Long Yun is also an aviation competition enthusiast.
So...what happened to him today?
"Long Yun, you want to go too? That would be great."
Finally, it was Sunday. Early in the morning, Long Yun and Li Yan took a bus to the "Caesar" club on Hong Kong Road. As a business and leisure purpose, the interior can be said to be quite spacious and the decoration is gorgeous.
When I came to the display hall where the simulator was placed, although it was still early, the huge space was already crowded.
Long Yun, who originally thought that this was purely a niche hobby, is now an eye-opener. Although people who were sitting on rows of seats watching the battle cannot experience the combat experience that is almost no different from driving a real fighter on the simulator like players, they can also experience the intensity and challenges of simulated air combat through the large screen. It is estimated that the club also wants to use this move to increase their popularity and popularity. Now it seems that they have done this.
Sitting almost on the side, Long Yun and his friends looked at the live broadcast images on the big screen. Although such a viewing is not much different from online games on ordinary computers, the pictures here are all output by the simulator, and what players in it now see will probably be more realistic.
By chance, one of the two players in the exhibition competition chose MiG-29. After watching it for a while, Long Yun found that the player's strength was not very strong: after missing the opportunity for mid-range interception, he entered the visual air battle with his opponent. Many maneuvering actions can be said to be a bit barely completed, and he did not perform the excellent close combat performance of MiG-29.
Of course, his opponent's skills are not much better: otherwise these two people would be able to decide the winner in the first hover, and would not be as entangled as they are now; that kind of slow-moving maneuvering confrontation is simply a bit dragging.
Long Yun knows that in this type of expensive certification simulator, the data of various fighter jets are directly derived from the IFU certification database. It should be said that they are accurate enough and there are almost no defects such as delays that low-end products often have. Then, the low-level competition in front of us can only be said to be the player's own problem.
"Well, it seems that the players who use G-29 are not very skilled in their work."
"ah?"
Li Yan didn't seem to think so. He turned to Long Yun in surprise.
"But I think he is very powerful. Why do you say that?"
Before he could think about how to reply, his sensitive intuition made Long Yun realize that someone was paying attention to him. At this time, Long Yun did not realize how stimulating his random comment would be in the ears of those who were interested.
