The incident had already passed so long ago that Catherine didn't really care anymore, so she recounted the event. However, she emphasized Li Xiaolong's heroic performance.

"Is that what 'Kung Fu' is?"

Lily was somewhat amazed.

Listening to it, it was truly incredible.

"Can you show us a demonstration?"

"Sure, no problem."

Li Zhenfan was quite straightforward.

Then, Glover also stood up generously and came to Li Zhenfan's front.

"This is called 'inch punch.' It involves exerting force at close range to defeat the opponent in the first instant."

Li Zhenfan's martial arts were practical to the core, discarding all unnecessary, flashy movements, and directly defeating the opponent in an instant.

Li Zhenfan assumed a horse stance, and Glover was ready. His hand was placed in front of the opponent, extended, and then suddenly clenched into a fist, instantly pushing Glover back several steps, which left Lily and the others in shock.

Then, Li Zhenfan went to the boxing bag and performed the same action again, making the bag fly up.

Li Zhenfan's movements could be said to have overturned everyone's perceptions.

Isn't it true that the longer the preparation and the greater the distance, the better the punch?

Why could he generate such powerful force from such a close distance?

Lily ran to the bag and tried to punch it, but it didn't budge at all.

However, Catherine knew that although Li Zhenfan's punches were powerful, his kicks were even more impressive.

Li Zhenfan could leap and deliver three consecutive kicks, with such force that it could send someone flying over ten meters.

Lily suddenly asked, "Can we learn martial arts?"

Li Xiaolong didn't expect Lily to ask this, but he quickly replied, "There's no problem. If you can endure the hardship, you can train."

Catherine rolled her eyes at Lily.

"Never mind, I was just saying."

Lily didn't want to endure the hardship.

"I think you can learn some self-defense techniques... you know, sometimes..." Linda shrugged.

"Will it be very hard?"

"No, if you only learn some self-defense techniques, it's actually quite simple. I'm writing a book, which might be helpful to you."

Li Zhenfan's only book published in his lifetime was "Basic Chinese Boxing."

However, in Catherine's view, Li Xiaolong's essence was in his kicks.

And she didn't think a woman's punch could have much impact on a strong man.

"Can you teach us some kicking techniques? The kind used to kick people."

That was quite straightforward.

"Then I'll teach you some basic self-defense techniques."

Li Zhenfan began to explain some basic techniques to them.

As the sky gradually darkened, Li Zhenfan finally stopped.

"Mr. Li, can I have your phone number?"

She had forgotten to ask last time, and Catherine felt a bit regretful. Although there were no mobile phones in this era, landlines were already widespread.

Li Zhenfan gave his phone number to Catherine, and the three of them bid farewell to Li Zhenfan.

Arriving at the hotel Bruce had prepared for them, Catherine thought about how Li Xiaolong died mysteriously a few years later, feeling it was a pity.

He was not only a celebrity but also her savior.

Maybe... she could find a way?

Catherine pondered this, but it was a mystery that had remained unsolved for decades. How could she solve it?

But soon, Catherine was drawn to another matter: gametv.

At the World's Fair in Seattle, various latest inventions were on display, showcasing human ingenuity.

And soon, people were attracted by a color television.

This television, called gametv, was not only remarkable for its appearance—full-screen TVs were rare—but also for its "electronic games."

Tetris and Pong, although only two games, were something no one had experienced before. Playing games on a TV screen immediately captivated the crowd.

Especially Tetris.

This magical game was hailed as "the world's first electronic game."

In the original world, Tetris was a magical game, known as "a game that can be played for a hundred years without getting tired." This demonstrated its popularity. It could be said that the vast majority of people who had used computers had played this game, especially in Japan and Europe.

Soon, word of mouth spread, and gametv quickly became well-known. More and more merchants came, and Bruce was busy.

In no time, Apple's gametv sales reached 300,000 units, and Catherine's initial goal was achieved.

Since they still had classes, Catherine and her friends only made a brief visit to the World's Fair and then returned to Pennsylvania.

However, after a little over a month, the holiday arrived, and everyone had ample time.

During this month, Catherine didn't idle. Although she still had to study, she managed to write the second and third parts of "Fallout."

With the end of the exam week, it meant that Catherine had reached the ninth grade, which is the third year of junior high school. Lily had also advanced to the first year of high school, and Jenny, Lisa, and Ada had reached the second year of high school.

Catherine's company's total sales had now reached 30 million, with profits exceeding 10 million.

With the launch of gametv, Catherine had become a millionaire.

Catherine had already decided that on January 1st of the following year, she would start selling her Little Tyrant game console.

Catherine believed that with the release of the game console, her market would only get better. After all, her main target was the children's market, which was always stable and easier to penetrate compared to the adult market. Especially since the hippie trend was already emerging, and she didn't know what would happen in the future.

Catherine's company had also begun developing personal computers.

Since they had the CPU, it was impossible not to develop personal computers, and portable computers were about to appear. Catherine couldn't afford to fall behind.

She had even designed the appearance, inspired by the original "Fallout"—in Catherine's version, the computers were very futuristic.

...

Can you be unhappy, but I can't be unhappy?

Can you insult me, but I can't delete the review?

I'm so angry.

Below is the image of the computer from Fallout.
