Southern Texas.

When Texas is mentioned, most people probably think of cowboy hats, cowboy boots, and revolvers first.

It's very American and very Texas.

However, the real Texas is obviously not that wild.

According to some international students.

Another nickname for Texas might be more fitting.

Little Tianfu in the United States.

That's why it has such a nickname.

It's because Texas and certain places in the Chengdu Plain of China bear some resemblance.

Firstly, the Texas style is relatively conservative and independent, forming its own distinct school.

For example, Trump's headquarters are in Texas.

The residents here are more or less Texasist.

They'll move from Houston to Dallas, or from Dallas to San Antonio, but they won't leave Texas.

Many older people have never left Texas in their entire lives.

It has a bit of the saying "Don't go to Sichuan when you're young, or you'll never leave Sichuan when you're

In addition to mahjong, Texas Hold'em is also available here.

Although the residents of the two places are separated by a great distance, they are both very fond of "competitive card and board games".

In terms of taste, residents of both places love spicy food, and in terms of temperament, fiery and straightforward are the hallmarks of Dezhou people.

Of course, there are similarities between one's hometown and the "Land of Abundance" in China.

Jackson, who just turned 17 today, doesn't care at all.

Given his geography grades, if you show him a map, he could mistake Australia for China.

Jackson now.

There was only one thing on my mind.

The question is whether my own father will give me a PS4 on my birthday.

With that in mind, he barely listened to any of the lessons that day.

Yes.

While children in China were enjoying their Spring Festival holiday.

High school classes are still in session in the United States.

In today's history class.

Since the Chinese New Year is just two days away, the teacher briefly mentioned a couple of points about the history of the Chinese New Year.

However, Jackson had absolutely no interest in it.

He endured and endured, until finally school was over, until dinner time, until finally his father got off work.

Jackson, who had been sitting on the lawn in front of his house for almost an hour, finally saw his father's car arrive.

Their excitement was no different from that of the guys in the next class who were smoking cigarettes.

Before Old Jackson had even parked his car, he had already spotted the box in the passenger seat.

"OMG!!"

"Dad!! You really bought it for me!!"

Overjoyed, Jackson opened the car door, unloaded the box with the PS4 logo, and gave his father a bear hug.

"Thank you, Dad. I love you so much."

All boys in the world react in roughly the same way when they get their hands on a game console.

At this moment, they are definitely the ones who love their father the most.

Old Jackson smiled.

"I'm just doing what I say, and I hope you'll do what you say too."

"Yes, I promise I won't get addicted to games. I'll go help out at Uncle Lyon's factory during summer vacation."

Just as Chinese children often had to sign a bunch of "unequal treaties" to get a game console, Jackson also signed a series of treaties.

However, he didn't sign a contract or anything like that at school; he went to a factory to learn something.

Jackson's father was a car repair engineer, and he always wanted his son to follow in his footsteps.

However, Jackson was always unwilling, feeling that the job was too uncool.

Jackson only gave in when his father offered him a PS4 as a lure.

"Also, you can't play games for more than 4 hours a day."

"Of course!"

At this point, Jackson was like a nodding machine, agreeing with everything his father said.

The family ate cake and celebrated the birthday in a harmonious atmosphere.

Then, Jackson excitedly returned to his bedroom, disassembled the computer, and connected it to the network.

Then he discovered a big problem.

"Dad! Didn't you buy me a game?"

In despair, Jackson skipped out of the bedroom.

However, at this time, his father had already driven his mother out to the supermarket.

Jackson was completely dumbfounded.

"What's the use of a game console if there are no games?"

Undeterred, Jackson called his friends to ask to borrow some DVDs.

The call had just been made.

Unexpectedly, his friend was even more excited than he was.

"OH!!! Jackson, you finally bought a PS4!!"

"Yes."

"That's great! Add me as a friend right away, I'll send you an invitation, hahaha, awesome! Now my Spark Carnival progress bar is full!! Awesome!!"

"Wait? What carnival? I meant do you have a game disc? I need a disc!"

"I know, I know. Just open my link later and you'll see a ton of free games."

"I suggest you start with Star Exploration. That was my first game. As long as you don't die, you don't need to spend any money."

"It's a pity that The Wandering Earth is only available in digital format, otherwise I could lend it to you. But wait two more days until the Spark New Year Carnival, when there will be a trial event."

"You're so lucky, you got to participate in the event as soon as you bought a PS4."

Listening to my good buddy rattle off a whole bunch of things.

Jackson, somewhat dazed, opened the app on his PS4 and added his friends.

I clicked on a very special invitation.

Then he was redirected to an event page.

Just as his friend said, the games here are indeed free.

For a high school student, a game that can be played for free is practically a free lunch.

More importantly, these games all look pretty good.

Then, Jackson downloaded the game his friend recommended.

Galaxy Park: Discovery

Waiting for download and installation.

After entering the game.

He quickly became addicted to it.

"Wow, this game is interesting!"

"You can actually play for free?"

"My God, how exactly does this company make money?"

Just one night.

Jackson quickly transformed from someone who knew absolutely nothing about Spark into a complete "Spark fan."

Actually, when buying a PS4.

Jackson's favorite games are AAA titles like Call of Duty, Battlefield, and GTA.

However, the economic situation remains as it is.

If you don't have money, then you can only play Spark games.

Fortunately, Spark's games are indeed quite interesting.

Although they can't compare to AAA games, some of them are still really addictive.

In fact, among Spark's player community, globally.

There are actually many players like Jackson.

Students are typically people who have time but no money.

However, saying that they have no money is not entirely accurate.

Just like Michael Jackson.

Although he has no money now, he can earn a considerable income by working during holidays.

In addition, students in China often gain some wealth during limited periods such as the Spring Festival.

Chapter 187 Starfire Bracelet

After playing Spark's game for two days.

That day after class, his friend Juan, the one who introduced him to the Spark game, found him during the break.

"Hey Jackson, I'm throwing a Spark Party tomorrow, wanna come?"

"Spark Party?"

Jackson was somewhat puzzled.

Juan then transformed into an Amway guru.

"Yes, tomorrow is the Lunar New Year, and there's a Spark Carnival program. Let's watch it together! You can even enter a prize draw while watching the live stream."

Jackson understood the meaning of the holiday celebrations.

However, there was something he didn't understand.

"New Year? Hasn't the New Year already passed? It's already February."

Juan was speechless at his friend's question.

"...Did you not listen to the teacher at all? It's the Chinese New Year."

"Are Chinese people so strange about celebrating festivals?"

"You talk too much, are you coming or not?"

"What time does it start?"

"10 point."

"This is way too early!"
