"I've got to post this on Moments! This performance is insane!" That was exactly what many people trying out mobile games were thinking.
They immediately picked the most beautiful scene and instructed the artificial intelligence to record the screen!

As soon as the video went up, comments came pouring in.
"Which game company made this CG footage?"
"What a big-budget production! Give me a download link!"
"I downloaded the video onto my computer. Guess what I found? Damn! This resolution is definitely 4K!"
"Why does this scene look so familiar? Isn't this a new game that just launched on Penguin's smart game platform? But its graphics aren't 4K..."

Most importantly, these videos did not all come from the same game. They covered practically every mainstream mobile
