The two men, each carrying a bag, walked out of the noodle shop quickly.

I didn't do anything, but why do I feel guilty?

"Don't you guys use cash for meals in this era?"

Chloe Shen felt a little strange, because when she was paying just now, she saw Stephen Su waving a cell phone against the wall without even taking out his wallet, and then the proprietress let them go.

"Mobile payment. Do you know POS machine? It's almost the same thing. In the past, we swiped cards, and now we swipe mobile phones." Stephen Su tried to explain it in something that Chloe Shen could understand.

I use my phone to order takeout, take photos, and pay...

Chloe Shen blinked, a little curious: "So the mobile phone is omnipotent?"

Stephen Su was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that perhaps it was because of the limitations brought about by this era and he was too accustomed to the existence of mobile phones that Stephen Su ignored...

It turns out that it is such an incredible miracle to integrate food, clothing, housing, transportation, and everything closely related to your life into a small smart phone.

In the eyes of people in the past, it might not be an exaggeration to call it a miracle.

"This is an era where you can't take a single step without a mobile phone." Stephen Su was filled with emotion.

Chloe Shen looked at Stephen Su who suddenly became ill and felt a little puzzled, but she roughly understood that mobile phones are indeed good things.

Hmm...I have to find a way to get one here.

Chloe Shen touched his chin and thought.

I don’t know if the money I saved from working part-time is enough. That thing looks very expensive.

At the intersection, two people were waiting for the red light.

It’s a rare weekend, and although it’s almost dinner time, the streets are still crowded with people, and the noisy sound of cars fills every street and alley.

Chloe Shen poked his head out and saw that there were few cars on the road, so he walked across the road.

"The light is red, what are you doing?" Stephen Su held her shoulders and pulled Chloe Shen back.

"Why are you waiting here if you don't have a car?" Chloe Shen asked.

"Obey traffic rules. Do you have any legal awareness?"

Stephen Su glanced at her and said that he was a good young man who abided by the law.

Chloe Shen curled her lips. At that time, running a red light was just a common thing for her.

In fact, when Stephen Su was in school more than ten years ago, Chinese-style crossing the road was still a very serious social problem, and this social phenomenon was often discussed in exam essays at that time. However, with the rapid economic development in recent years, the quality of the people has significantly improved, and the behavior of running red lights has become less and less.

Stephen Su pointed to the row of surveillance cameras on the traffic light poles and said, "Do you see those cameras? They are specially used to take pictures of people like you who run red lights. They will catch you once you catch them. The police will come to your house and invite you for tea the next day."

Looking at Chloe Shen who seemed a little impatient waiting, Stephen Su decided to scare her.

Chloe Shen looked at him suspiciously, then quietly retracted the leg that had just stepped forward, stared at the countdown of the traffic light with a serious expression, and glanced at the surveillance camera from time to time.

I just took a step forward, so it shouldn't matter...

Chloe Shen wondered if she should wear a mask or sunglasses next time she came. It was too dangerous in this era. You could be sent to the police station just for crossing the road.

After finally waiting for the green light and following the crowd to the other side, Chloe Shen looked back at the surveillance camera.

"What do you think would happen if I put it back on in a flash under surveillance?"

Stephen Su had a question mark on his face. Are you going to do some kind of performance art?

Approaching Science is not enough to satisfy you, you have to be on the News Broadcast, right?

"Don't worry, I will dress up warmly and my mother won't be able to recognize me." Chloe Shen vowed and guaranteed by patting his chest.

Stephen Su held it in for a long time before finally saying something...

"A turtle carries a barber shop!"

"???"

Did you college students born in the 1990s have any serious illnesses?

...

...

Facts have proved that Stephen Su's previous choice was very wise. Not long after he got home, Chloe Shen disappeared again in a flash.

If he had stayed outside a little longer, there might be reporters blocking his door tomorrow.

Without that girl who looks down on others, the house feels a lot quieter.

He returned to the room, turned on the computer, and habitually went to B station to check the video data. The number of views of the last video had exceeded 600,000, and his fans had increased by nearly 10,000. Stephen Su estimated that with two more videos, the number of his fans would be able to break the 500,000 mark.

Stephen Su now mainly hangs out in the animation section, making some anime talk videos. In this era where short videos are king, and the animation section is not large in size, having this number of fans is actually considered a middle-class level.

Of course, he can't compare with those up-hosts in the life area who earn millions or tens of millions. They can increase their followers by doing a "don't laugh" challenge or a "don't eat for free" challenge, while Stephen Su still has to work hard to look up information and find materials, and endure the physical discomfort to stare at those crappy works to find flaws, but the result is that the number of views is not even one-tenth of theirs.

Stephen Su could only shed tears of envy in front of the screen.

I wrote the copy for the next video and did some preliminary preparation for the video, and an afternoon passed.

Stephen Su leaned back in his chair and rubbed his brows...

October is almost here, and it’s the busiest time of year again.

Japanese animation is broadcast quarterly, so every January, April, July and October is when the new season's episodes start and the old season's episodes end.

A series of videos have to be produced overtime to recommend new episodes, comment on the completion of old episodes, and comment on the start of new episodes.

After all, this kind of thing is all about freshness and popularity. If you don't seize the opportunity, the audience will go to other up-hosts. Although there is a fan base, the data will not be too bad, but the loss of passers-by audiences is bound to cause the popularity of the video to drop a lot.

Ding Dong!

The WeChat notification sound on the mobile phone rang, and Lucas Pei sent a message.

"Have you finished shopping with the beautiful girl?"

Stephen Su raised the corners of his mouth slightly and replied with a "hehe".

"Stop talking nonsense, Zed?"

"Oh, get on board!"

...

1998.

Lancheng University, girls’ dormitory.

"Nora Ah, class is in session, what are you doing sneaking around there?"

Chloe Shen glanced at her roommate with pigtails and a small shoulder bag standing at the door, and silently stuffed a stack of things into her arms.

"Oh, you go first, I'll be there soon." Chloe Shen replied.

"Today is Michael Lao's class, so don't be late."

The roommate looked at Chloe Shen strangely. She always felt that Chloe Shen was acting weird these days.

I don't know what he was tinkering with in a sneaky manner just now.

I stayed in the toilet all night yesterday and didn't come out...

After her roommate left, Chloe Shen carefully took out what she had just hidden - a stack of small banknotes. It took her a long time to save up this much.

After counting carefully several times, Chloe Shen frowned, feeling a little distressed.

"It's only fifteen hundred. I don't know if it's enough."

I heard that a rich guy from the next door major spent more than 10,000 yuan on a mobile phone...
