Chapter 222: Massive Interactive Event (1)

Chapter 222 – Massive Interactive Event (1)

While standing atop the three-kilometer-tall box, Chen Yu removed his protective suit’s left glove and looked at his watch. After pondering for a moment, he said, “Opening the 210,000 integrated boxes will be a huge project. So, the viewers I select cannot arrive one by one, but group by group instead.

“For my preliminary plan, the selected interactive audiences will be divided into three groups. Aside from the bullet comment group and donation group, we’ll add an additional higher education group. I’ll make the selection rules as simple as possible too.

“One, the selected IDs for the bullet comment group must gather at least 20 friends to participate in the interactive event. If you cannot do this, please don’t participate in the lottery.

“Two, the selected IDs for the donation group must gather at least 100 members to participate. Failure to do so will result in disqualification.

“Three, the newly-added higher education group will consist of universities and colleges all over the world. Higher-education institutions that wish to participate can apply for the lottery by donating 100,000 yuan or above to the channel. However, note that additional donations will not affect your chances of getting chosen. Every higher-education ID chosen must also gather 300 students or above to participate.

“These will be the rules for now, but I might add more later on. Now, let’s dispense with the words and start drawing IDs immediately.”

Raising his right hand, Chen Yu spread his five fingers to control the livestream rooms’ rhythm. After pausing in that position for several seconds, he continued, “Firstly, the bullet comment group. I’ll select five IDs.

“Now…let’s begin!”

[Mine! It’s mine!]

[Ahhh!]

[Everybody get lost! It’s mine!]

[Me! Me! Me!]

[If I say I’m a DJ, will you choose me?]

[You’re choosing five from over ten million people…]

[RNGesus is my friend! He’ll carry me!]

[Brothers, if you can’t gather enough people, don’t send a comment. Make room for us.]

[I’m a shut-in without friends, colleagues, or classmates.]

An unprecedented wave of bullet comments swept through the livestream rooms.

At this point, only the text of bullet comments could be seen on Chen Yu’s watch.

After waiting for three minutes, Chen Yu waved his hand and shouted, “Stop!

“I’ve finished choosing the five IDs. I’ll now start naming them.

“Bilibili, ID Thieving Cat.

“DouYu, ID Milk Soup.

“Niconico, ID… I can’t read Japanese. Let’s change to another one. ID… I still can’t read it. Forget it. Let’s skip Niconico.

“Twitch, ID Striver.

“Afreeca TV, ID Du Minjun.

“Yeye Live, ID Cold Night 1986.”

Setting down his watch, Chen Yu loudly said, “The five chosen viewers, I’ve already granted access for you to privately message me. You have three minutes to send me your coordinates and 10 minutes to gather at least 20 people. Failure to do either will result in disqualification.”

[This damned RNGesus… Dammit…]

[Jealousy makes my lumbar disc prolapse.]

[Jealousy makes my prostate hyperplasia.]

[ ?? ]

[Anyone chosen from Beijing? I’ll offer one million for a slot!]

[Anyone from New York? Bring me as well! I’ll gift you a house!]

[Anybody from Wuhan? I’ll bring my daughter-in-law with me. I’ll leave her with you when we’re done…]

[Anybody from the Antarctic? Bring me! I’ll gift you a football team of penguins! I guarantee they’re stronger than national football teams!]

“Next up is the donation group. For today’s livestream, I’ll allow you to wear equipment to the venue to conduct simple research.

“The lottery begins now! Start throwing your money!”

[Notice: Walmart Company has sent 50,000x Super Rockets.]

[Notice: Nobel Foundation sent 5,000x Transdimensional Glory. (A special gift Bilibili prepared specifically for Transdimensional Review’s livestreams. One Transdimensional Glory = 5,000 Chinese yuan.)]

[Notice: Coca-Cola Company sent 6,000x Transdimensional Glory.]

[Notice: NASA sent 70,000x Transdimensional Glory.]

[Notice: NASA sent 5,000x Transdimensional Glory.]

[Notice: NASA sent 22,000x Transdimensional Glory.]

[Notice: NASA…]

Snap!

Ten minutes later, seeing that the gifts coming in from the livestream rooms was starting to decrease, Chen Yu snapped his fingers and shouted, “Stop!

“Time’s up. I’ll start reading the list.

“Bilibili, ID Lego Company.”

After saying so, Chen Yu pushed against his glasses and shrugged, “As the sponsor of this evaluation, it is only right for me to show this much respect.

“DouYu, British Petroleum Company.

“Periscope, Apple Technology Company.

“Yeye Live…”

…

In the NASA headquarters thousands of kilometers away, NASA’s gray-bearded director stared at the screen intently. However, when Chen Yu read the last ID for the donation group, the director became apathetic as he collapsed to his chair.

“This…

“Why…

“Why!!!”

Flip!

The director abruptly flipped the table before him and angrily roared, “We donated the most! We even donated on every platform! Why can’t you see us still?! Why?! Fuck!”

Flip!

…

“The IDs selected for the donation group, please send your coordinates to me as soon as possible. Also, gather a group of 100 employees or above. Lastly, the higher education group. The lottery will now begin.”

[Notice: Columbia University sent 500x Transdimensional Glory.]

[Notice: NASA sent…]

[Notice: League of Southern Beijing Universities sent…]

“That’s enough.”

After another three minutes passed, Chen Yu put his glove back on and said, “The higher education group’s members are as follows: Cambridge University, Mensa University, Harbin Institute of Technology, University of South Africa, and Saint Louis University.

“The five listed institutions, please gather at least 300 teachers and students within 10 minutes to participate in the floating city’s assembly.

“Now that we’ve drawn the lottery for all three groups, while the selected IDs are gathering the necessary manpower, I’ll demonstrate to everyone how this product is assembled.”

After saying so, Chen Yu walked to the edge of the delivery box, picked up the integrated boxes labeled “1” and “2”, and tossed them over the ledge. He then picked up the box of instruction manuals and jumped off the box as well.

Boom!

Chen Yu landed on the ground precisely 53 seconds later. As for the two integrated boxes, they were still taking their sweet time descending.

Seeing Chen Yu coming down from the box, Little Peach hurriedly approached him and pointed at the descending integrated boxes, asking, “King, what are these things?”

“Toys.”

“Toys?!”

“Yes. They’re kind of like building blocks. You’ll get to play with them in a moment.”

“Wow! Wonderful!” Little Peach jumped up two meters into the air in excitement.

“If you like it, I’ll assign 500 integrated boxes to you afterward.”

“Really?”

“Really. However, you must make sure you assemble all of the toys.” Chen Yu smirked.

“I’ll definitely finish assembling them!”

“Good. Don’t break your promise.”

“I won’t!” Little Peach said as she heavily pounded her chest.

[I’m getting dizzy.]

[Be gentler, my goddess!]]

[Crap! Dammit! Why didn’t I get chosen?! I want to touch the female assistant up close!]

[Five hundred boxes… She’s going to die.]

Two and a half minutes later, Integrated Box 1 finally landed on the ground.

Immediately, Chen Yu approached the box together with Little Peach. He then removed the box’s seal and retrieved 20 five-meter-long marker boxes from within. After going along the order and opening a few marker boxes, he ended up with 84 building blocks.

“How do you play with them?” Little Peach asked in confusion as she picked up a building block.

“I’ll check the instruction manual,” Chen Yu said as he opened the first page of the second instruction manual. The page’s virtual projection showed how to assemble all of the building blocks in Integrated Box 1.

Following the instructions, Chen Yu picked up Building Blocks 3 and 4 and tentatively combined them before the camera…

Buzz!

A bright glow suddenly enveloped the two building blocks. When the light disappeared, the two originally translucent building blocks had actually turned into a slab of grayish-brown rock!

“Crap…”
