Birthday Gift
Gradually, Catherine realized that the reception was not as simple as it seemed.
This is probably just an internal Mafia meeting in the name of Jenny's birthday or maybe it's a friendship or something.
But one thing is certain, that is Jenny's grandfather, that is, Old White, he is probably also a senior member of the Mafia.
At least, those big guys who are talking and laughing do not seem to come over to celebrate someone's birthday.
The dance party was worse than Catherine had imagined.
The whole party seemed very dull because all the people were talking.
"It's a pity, it would be nice if my parcel can be delivered."
Catherine was a little bit regretful.
"What?"
"Birthday gift~"
Catherine smiled mysteriously but didn't say anything.
But today she seems to be lucky. As she was talking, the servant walked up to Jenny and told her that the package had arrived.
"Maybe we should go see Kate's gift first?" Lily said with a smile.
Lily seems to be the most active person among her friends. Although the scene feels a little cold, as long as she is there, these little princesses will not feel lonely.
"Let's go~"
Lisa also urged on the side.
So, the five people just slipped away quietly.
When they came to Jenny's room, they only saw a large man wrapped in a cardboard box and placed in the middle of the room.
"What is this?"
Jenny is very curious.
"Game TV. I made it myself!"
Catherine smiled.
Although it was born once and cooked twice, it took Catherine a lot of time to make these things.
Of course, this time the product is much better than last time.
In the past few months, Catherine has been busy designing the appearance for Game TV. Now, it is finally completed.
The big guy opened the carton box and a TV was exposed. This is a color TV.
However, unlike ordinary TV sets, there are two handles on both sides of this color TV. This is not a jumbled handle produced in the 70s and 80s but a "modern handle" with cross buttons. This is also patented.
You should know that the history of the handle has also undergone a long period of "evolution".
As for the people from the 70s to the 90s, not to mention the feel of the handle, even the standard of the handle is different.
And Catherine spent half a month in order to polish a handle similar to that of later generations. Although there are only 6 buttons of up, down, left, and right, A and B, it looks pretty good.
As for the casing of the TV, Catherine also designed it. The TVs of this year are all big wooden boxes. What's more, the screen of some TVs is actually not in the center!
Catherine made the appearance of CRT TV that will appear after evolving in the next few decades.
At least it looked like this to Catherine.
Plugged in the power and several people turned on the TV.
Because there is no remote control, Catherine integrated the TV remote control function into the handle. There are two left and right switches in the middle of the handle host. One is to set the TV to cable TV mode, and the other is to set the game console mode. The button below is to control the game. On the left is "Tetris"-but now it is renamed "Emma Cube", and on the right is "Ping Pong".
In a few years, a billiard room will be popular in the United States, and this "Ping Pong" will also be popular for a while.
And this "Ping Pong" game is also the earliest in the world. At the earliest, it appeared on the oscilloscope. But now, the copyright of these games is owned by Catherine.
And all of them are at the level of a gold machine.
The first thing Catherine showed everyone was Emma Cube.
This is a pure video game, that is, it can only be played in video games, and reality is a type of game that cannot be simulated.
Catherine specially set up a two-person mode and changed the screen from black and white to color, but the memory was enlarged several times at once. You know, the storage cost of this idea is very high.
They were fascinated by this game at once.
"It's really interesting."
"Catherine, did you really do this yourself?"
Lily suddenly thought of what Catherine had said.
"That's right, even this handle was polished by me in one go~"
Catherine smiled.
"You polished it yourself?!"
Lily suddenly looked at Catherine in disbelief, but she just nodded.
"Show me your hand."
Lily suddenly raised Catherine's hand.
There is a layer of calluses on it. I usually didn't pay attention but when Lily lifted it up, Catherine found it.
"Oh my god, you actually made your hands so rough?!"
When do Americans still care about this?
"Isn't that okay?" Catherine still felt a little fussy.
"The care of your hands is very important!"
It was Ada who came over at this time and it seemed that she also cared about the so-called "care".
"I never use chemical products!" Catherine shook her head.
You should know that women who often take care of themselves have a shorter life expectancy than those who do not take care of...
"There is no need to use chemical products, and it is purely a waste of money, as long as you usually pay attention to it." Ada does not seem to apply any cosmetics.
"Maybe you can teach her?" Lily looked at Ada, then looked back at Catherine.
She rolled her eyes directly.
Maybe it's because she was poor, so she didn't care about many things at all and these habits have not changed now.
"Interesting..."
On the side, Jenny has cleared the second level of Tetris.
As Catherine had expected, as the sunset approached, the conversation of those big guys was over.
Soon, it was dinner time, but the five people still did not appear in the hall.
