Some people fall in love in a dream, some people watch the sea at night, and some people still live their lives cutely even now at home.

This sentence can’t be more appropriate to describe Wang Qiming’s National Day holiday.

This National Day holiday, due to the epidemic and other reasons, he decided to minimize going out and narrow the scope of activities to a few hundred meters between the bedroom and the gate of the community.

He and a few friends have held various online activities, or online parties, or Lianmai K song, and the most popular PPT Night. In his words, not only was he not as boring as expected, but he also gained some new skills and made more friends.

Like Wang Qiming, during this National Day holiday, those young people who are unwilling to be lonely and full of imagination, even if they choose to stay at home, they can still use the Internet platform to complete their own different vacations.

“Online annual meeting, do you want to know?”

Wang Qiming, 24-year-old state-owned enterprise employee

On the morning of October 10, Wang Qiming, who was on his way to work, actually missed his past 13 days of “holidays”.

Although he can’t go out to play, even if he stays at home, he can still find online social activities that enrich his life and live his life at home with relish.

Among them, what surprised and delighted him the most was the online annual meeting held with his friends.

On that day, he was entangled in how to spend his National Day holiday again, because his friends had new expectations for discussions in the group.

“It’s okay, since we can’t meet for a while, let’s do some online cloud activities.”

“I think it’s okay, then it’s better to do something special. It’s better to do something that can’t be done normally than to waste this seven-day long vacation.”

“…”

After some discussion, several friends settled on different activities: online K-song, online script killing, and playing mahjong with Mai.

Several people also decided to arrange for the team with the lowest score or loser in each game to perform the show through video — the essence of this online annual meeting.

To this end, Wang Qiming reinstalled the national karaoke song that had been uninstalled for a long time, and also created a new “must have k song” playlist on NetEase Cloud Music, collecting a wave of 8090’s memories and popular golden songs after 00. , a good voice practice.

It is precisely because of the preparations that Wang Qiming was elected as the song king in a small group of 6 people at the “Online Annual Meeting” two days later with a song “Mohe Dance Hall”, which naturally eliminated the punishment of being asked to open a video performance program. .

“But the buddy who performed the show at the end was quite miserable. The six of us watched him sing and dance “Love You”, and each of us saved a screen recording,” Wang Qiming joked, “This is to stay at his wedding in the future. material uploaded.”

On the other hand, a few people agreed to play an online script to kill, and Wang Qiming called it “discovering a new continent”.

That day, a friend pulled a DM (host of script killing) into the WeChat group, and the DM posted a list of scripts in the group, and said, “Offline script killing of 150 yuan, online only 30 yuan, you can choose” .

A few people were a little surprised. After choosing a script that cost 168 yuan offline and only 28 yuan online, they jumped to TT voice according to the DM’s request and started to play the script officially. “I only found out after asking the DM that no one is playing games on WeChat QQ with a microphone anymore. Software like TT Voice is a must-have for games such as script killing and glory of the king.”

The online script killing experience this time also made Wang Qiming feel very smooth, and it was not much different from the offline experience. After the journey to and from the script store, I can still choose a suitable script, and maybe we will switch to online script killing after the lockdown is lifted.”

In addition, he also played mahjong with his friends, played Truth or Dare, prepared for PPT Night, and also held a cloud clinking cocktail party with his friends to commemorate his extraordinary National Day holiday.

“There are many ways of entertainment at home. The Internet can also connect friendships and get new skills. This is probably my biggest gain in the past ten days.”

“While staying at home, I made an appointment with a friend to ‘rob a bank'”

Zhang Yuan, 22 years old, self-media editor

Zhang Yuan’s biggest hobby in his spare time is playing games, but during the holidays, games are always boring.

After playing League of Legends mobile game, Honor of Kings, and Peace Elite for several days in a row, Zhang Yuan finally lost interest in these games that usually “squat on the toilet and have a game”.

“That’s the day, when I was lying in bed and bored, I suddenly thought that it seems like I haven’t ‘that’ for a long time.”

He hurriedly straightened up, turned on the computer, and sent a message to his two friends, “Robber a bank?” After the other party replied “received”, he opened Steam and logged in to the open-world game GTA5.

Although “robbing a bank” is a very common gameplay in GTA5, Zhang Yuan and his friends rarely have time to complete this set of lengthy tasks, and staying at home just gives him the opportunity to experience this kind of gameplay.

In addition, Zhang Yuan has also developed some “exclusive gameplay” in various open world games with his friends. They climbed over the snow-capped mountains in Switzerland together in the game, went to the Gold Coast to go surfing, and jumped over the hot air balloons in Turkey… A few days later, friends called their girlfriends online to watch the sunrise together in San Francisco in the game, and let Zhang Yuan I ate a handful of dog food.

He called the game journey of these days “Global Cloud Tourism”.

And these “exclusive gameplay” that Zhang Yuan and his friends thought of were also recorded by him or by text or video recording, and uploaded to Weibo, Douyin, Xiaohongshu and other social platforms to share with players across the country. Up to now, it has also received a good number of views and likes.

This also gave him an epiphany, “Perhaps we can consider continuing the title of “game blogger” in the future, maybe one day the side business will become the main business.”

“In the ‘Watch Together’ screening room, we became friends with the matched couple”

Yang Wei, 23, employee of the company

After receiving the call that her boyfriend couldn’t come, Yang Wei’s heart paused: the long-planned National Day trip seems to be canceled.

Yang Wei has been in a long-distance relationship with her boyfriend for half a year. She originally thought that the two would go for a serious stroll on the seven days of the National Day, and go to the Internet celebrity restaurant together, but the plan still couldn’t keep up with the changes.

But Yang Wei has always been a person who “will be safe when you come.” After a brief period of sadness, the two decided: it’s better to take this opportunity to do some other activities with Mai besides the usual chat.

“Usually couples watch movies on Weiguang, but Weiguang’s film library is too small,” Yang Wei said. “Fortunately, the Internet giants have not given up on us couples from different places.”

Yang Wei introduced that Mango TV originally had a “watching together” function, but it was canceled in the new version, and they chose to watch anime together in the screening room of station B. Although they can’t see each other, two people can still watch the same video together through the Internet, chat about the plot, and can pause and jump out at any time to talk about the things between the two, or share the mood at this moment.

This is also a very memorable memory for busy working couples from different places.

In addition, Yang Wei also laughed and said that they turned “watching together” into a social tool.

Once, when they watched “Crayon Shin-chan” together, they turned the screening room to the public, and soon they were matched with another couple.

“We also chatted briefly in the chat room for a while and found that they were also in a long-distance relationship. I didn’t expect that there would be so many couples with the same illness. This kind of fate is also very strange. We also added WeChat and agreed to watch it together next time. “Detective Conan”.”

“7 days at home during the holiday, I met my abs”

Li Xiao, 26 years old, employee of a state-owned enterprise

Of course, in addition to the above methods, many young people also spent the entire National Day holiday at home by entertaining themselves.

Li Xiao is one of them.

He decided that in seven days, he would continue to consolidate his already beginning to take shape abs, and then “wow everyone”.

To this end, he found a lot of notes on Xiaohongshu, such as “recipes for abdominal muscle development” and “7-day fitness plan”, and then strictly implemented them according to the notes that were highly praised and helpful.

He showed his three meal plan: oatmeal, one egg yolk and three egg whites for breakfast, fish and beef for lunch and dinner, with vegetables such as broccoli and lettuce, and marked “2L water a day” Red Star. In terms of exercise, he chose to do some core fat-burning exercises and abdominal muscle-building exercises with Keep.

If he has time and physical strength, Li Xiao also opened Douyin and followed fitness bloggers such as Liu Genghong and Chen Yiru to exercise. “Although the intensity of these bloggers’ exercise is lower, the entertainment in the live broadcast room is more entertaining, and more than an hour of exercise can pass without knowing it.”

After a few days, according to Li Xiao, his abdominal muscles and other muscles seem to be stronger, and he looks better in clothes.

“I would go out to run for half an hour in the evening, that is, when I was running, I found out that there are too many people of the same age in the community exercising. Many boys obviously have strong shoulders, hips and legs, but they are still very self-disciplined. “Li Xiao said, “I exchanged some fitness experience with a boy, and after we made an appointment, we have to urge each other to run together at night.”
