Ocean Park reform, many mobile games belonging to everyone's childhood memories will face the fate of being demolished one after another.
Among them, the "Quiet Mine Speed Car" became a group selected for the first phase of the demolition of the era under the reform, and was officially retired at the end of this month together with the "Speed Journey" (ie, the "jumping machine") and the "Surfing Spacecraft", becoming a collective of everyone Memories.
The coaster is built on the mountain. The most impressive thing is that, besides sighing the invincible sea view, of course, the rough "click, click" sound when the roller coaster passes the track, it seems that the adrenaline will soar as soon as you hear it.
It was once selected as the most beautiful roller coaster, if you say that the Yue Mine Speed is the signboard of the park after the giant panda, it should be well worth it.
However, "Red Auntie" will have a day of sitting on a cold bench like a quarry car.
Ocean Park Regional Manager Lee Ho-yin recalled that virtual reality (VR) elements were introduced that day. In order to test the best and most fun results, some employees had played 2,000 times in the cloud within two months, hoping that it would "upgrade". "To give tourists freshness and try every means to save their lives, but unfortunately in the end they are still no match for the great wheel of the times."
Li Haoxian said: "If possible, contact Qu (the speeding car over the mine) said goodbye for the last time, because it really existed."

In the past, the Ocean Park Yue Mine Speed was a good place for exciting tourists to challenge. After the epidemic, the park closed some of the more distant parks for the convenience of management, and it will also be demolished following the park reform.

The Yuekuang speed car is partly set up on the mountain waves. To make visitors feel at ease and rest assured, of course, I would like to thank the team that has not changed it to repair and maintenance for many years.
Shi Guoji, the manager of the maintenance department, has worked in Ocean Park for 14 years. Part of the time was to take care of this mine-crossing coaster specially shipped from Italy to Hong Kong. No wonder this roller coaster is rugged and elegant, just like a Italian gentleman.
Inadvertently, it has been 21 years since the introduction of the Yuekuang Speed Car.
Although the parts on the car are slightly old, because of its "good texture", it has always been a simple problem such as constant wear and tear and replacement of wheels. I believe it should not be a problem to continue to serve tourists.
Regarding the fate of being demolished at the end of the month, Shi Guoji lamented: "This Italian machine is indeed very beautiful. It is only old and young, but it is very safe. After we learned that it was going to be demolished, we had already reduced the purchase of parts. If possible, in fact, it has. There are enough parts to play until the end of this year. It is a pity, I hope to keep it for a while.” However, some parts are also out of stock, and it is difficult to repurchase.

When it comes to the Yue Mine Speed Car, Shi Guoji is a treasurer.
In order to ensure safety, Shi Guoji and his colleagues will walk on the rails every day for testing, and play in person at least once a week to feel and distinguish its physical condition with the sound of the rails.
It is quite difficult to concentrate on working on such an exciting mobile game. When asked Shi Guoji’s tricks, he laughed and said, "You must not be afraid of heights and play mobile games! I have closed my eyes after playing 10 times. It’s not enough to be surprised!" He also said, "Some of my colleagues know their position even when they close their eyes, and which one has some problems, as soon as they hear the sound or feel the shock, they already know whether they are healthy or not."
Shi Guoji, the motorized game maintenance manager who inspected this roller coaster, has worked in Ocean Park for 14 years and has been with this machine for many years. He has emotion, "It is true that under the epidemic situation, it was rated as the most beautiful roller coaster in the past because of it. Sacrifice, to be demolished.” (Photo by Zhang Haowei)
How popular was the Yuekuang speed car in its heyday?
Ocean Park Regional Manager Li Haoxian recalled: "This is the only game that was "complained" or called an opinion by nearby residents. The residents of Lidong Village once asked how the car was noisy, and many people yelled. Playing the roller coaster is so hard to call the guests...." There is a certain distance between Lidong Village and the park, and the "noise" is heard so far away, which shows the charm and shock of the speeding car.
To this day, there are still many enthusiasts. Lee Ho-yin pointed out that there is a group of gray-haired elderly people who will come to play the Yue Mine Speed Car every week for 10 consecutive years.
The mobile game is innovating. Li Haoxian said that a few years ago, he had begun to worry about the loss of the scenery of the over-the-mine speeding car, and launched a rescue plan for it.
In order to make it "rise up", a few years ago, it was studied to add VR elements to the over-mine flying car, so that visitors can have a brand new experience.
In order to test and adjust VR to the best effect, many employees of Ocean Park kept trying to play and test. One of them even played more than 2,000 times in 2 months, that is, played 33 games every day for 60 consecutive days. Second-rate.
In this regard, Li Haoxian expressed deep admiration, and also reflected the employees' love for Yuekuang Speed.
"He was forgotten by the new generation. I don’t want him to be eliminated and add some new elements. The point is not whether he is well-received or not. At least some people know that like the actor in the second spring, he also "turned over", but unfortunately, he will also be closed in the end. "He lamented that since the construction of the water park, fewer tourists arrive at the park nearby, it is like losing to the new construction and being abandoned.
Li Haoxian said that he was worried that the mine-crossing coaster would be unsustainable. Several years ago, he developed the use of VR lens elements to add to the game experience. Calmly everyone wanted to "save" this beloved roller coaster.

In recent years, many people have used "collective memories" to describe the various facilities of the Ocean Park. Many mobile games are indeed full of memories of many people when they were young.
Li Haoxian, who regards Yue Mine Speed as his work partner, has tried his best with his colleagues, but the reality cannot be changed and can only be accepted. Parting Yiyi, he reluctantly said: "You can say that he has gone through an era. I hope that many people will not only use their previous photos. Remembrance, if possible, contact the channel (the speeding car over the mine) for the last time, feel the channel, and say goodbye to the channel, because the channel did exist.” Three mobile games will be scheduled to serve the Ocean Park on August 31. With the reform of the park, the rest of the amusement facilities will say goodbye to visitors one by one.
