JAKARTA - Still remembering a grandfather in Taiwan who loved Pokemon Go, with a lot of cellphones in 2018. Two years ago, apparently this grandfather named Chen San-yuan was still actively hunting Pokemon.
Even the bicycle he uses to carry his cell phones when searching for Pokemon has evolved. Now the grandfather, uses 64 smartphones at the same time when hunting Pokemon.
Quoted from The Verge, Friday, June 26, now the appearance of the bicycle he uses is increasingly similar to the tail of a peacock (peacock). The difference is, the collection of smartphones that manifest like a bird's tail is on the front of the bicycle.
If you pay attention to the 64 smartphones, they are arranged using a specially designed smartphone accessory holder. Unfortunately, from the photos in circulation, it is not clear what brand of smartphone it uses.
But when you remember in 2019, Grandpa Chen was endorsed by Asus. He even became a Brand Ambassador for the Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2 smartphone.
Before placing 64 smartphones on his bicycle, Grandpa Chen also used 45 cellphones at the end of 2019. This means that every year Grandpa Chen has always added smartphones to play the Pokemon Go game since 2018.
