Build a game empire from scratch

Lin You hung up the phone regretfully.

Sure enough, there are some things that I still have to figure out on my own, especially A Mei, which is too difficult to deal with.

Lin You couldn't think of any coups, so he simply took Xiaomeng and went to the Chang'an project team.

The development of the Chang'an project is a bit out of line——

The main storyline has not yet been discussed properly, but ideas for various lively activities and celebrations continue to emerge, and they are done very quickly.

According to Lin You's idea, in the first chapter of Chang'an, the more various activities, the better. Even if the main story is not needed, they can be placed there to increase the exploration fun of the players.

Therefore, as long as it is recognized by everyone and does not seem to violate the harmony, even simulated business elements such as private painting boats are allowed to be added to the development plan.

Of course, the threshold for this game is relatively high. Collecting beautiful girls, educating and cultivating them, buying ships, and decorating them all require huge investments.

But if you want to make money in Chang'an, it will only be more difficult than Night City.

After all, the more you want to operate the game for a long time, the more strictly the economic system must be designed.

As for the plot, it’s not that there are none. Everyone put forward a lot of ideas one after another, but felt that they were not satisfied enough, so they all entered the alternatives.

But the plot is really very important, so as soon as Lin You came to the project team, he joined the plot discussion group to think about the plot design together.

Time flies by in the midst of concentrated work.

Until the break at noon, Gong Shi, a senior employee of Yunmeng Studio, suddenly ran over to find Lin You, and excitedly said that she had thought of a great new idea.

——Employees of the development team can put forward new ideas at any time, and they can add them to the game as long as they are suitable.

This is what Lin You said a long time ago, and it is precisely based on this rule that Metropolis and Night City can always maintain their vitality and new things appear constantly.

Chang'an has given everyone enough room to play from the development stage.

What do you think? Tell me. Lin You was very interested.

Gong Shi then said excitedly: 【Battle of the Harem】!

Hearing these four words, Lin You immediately had question marks all over his face: The battle in the harem? What do you mean? The harem meddles in politics and triggers a war?

No, no! Gong Shi shook her head again and again, with a disgusted expression of Lin You's lack of imagination.

That's it, I plan to design an event exclusively for female players to participate in. Through the method of sea election voting, the selected candidates will enter the harem, and then through means such as showcasing talent, intrigue, and framing, they will be banned layer by layer. Competing for the throne of the final queen.

We can definitely make it a quarterly event. If the response is good, it can also be made into an e-sports event or a variety show to expand its influence.

By the way, you can also call on netizens to vote for your favorite players. The topic and attention will definitely explode!

Wait, wait! Lin You hurriedly stopped her, This won't work.

He didn't even think about it, so he shot the plan to death.

Why? Gong Shi was not reconciled, The martial arts competition is fine, and the oiran conference is also fine, why not the post-election conference?

Why? Do you even need to ask? Why don't you play Harem 101 here?

Can these properties be the same? The one who chooses the oiran is an NPC, not a player.

Gong Shi still seemed unconvinced, but after thinking about it carefully, she sighed and left: Okay, then I'll think about something else.

Lin You still didn't forget to tell her later: Next time think of something more reliable!

It was late at night on the east coast of America when Yunmeng started his lunch break.

To the northeast of the capital of America, in a seaport warehouse in Baltimore, the kind Epic is gathering in a small conference room with several confidants, arranging the work of the younger brothers for the past two days.

Tomorrow is Christmas, and the citizens of Baltimore are waiting for us to give them a surprise.

The good news is: our old man has caught up. In another hour, 150,000 Mirages will be delivered to us. I need you to deliver them to customers in the shortest possible time. Do you understand?

Yes! The six confidantes in the room nodded at the same time.

Do it better this time, next time we can get 300,000 units. Brothers, we are just around the corner!

Five people in the room nodded heavily, but one Xiao Hei was a little reluctant: Uncle, this thing doesn't make as much money as drugs, why do we spend so much effort on this?

Without hesitation, Epic slapped the stupid kid on the head.

But for the sake of kinship, he still looked at the Military Adviser: Explain to him.

The only person in a suit and leather shoes in the room nodded, and explained to the stupid boy: Smuggling mirage, the profit rate is indeed not as exaggerated as drugs, but it is far more than other things, and this thing is not worrying about sales at all, and the risk is very high. Low, even if you get caught, it’s a small problem, you’ll be locked up for a few days, and you’ll be fined.”

Selling a mainframe is enough to pay the fines of 30 people. Have you ever seen such a high profit and such a low risk?

In addition, this is still a new industry, unlike the traditional drug business, which faces fierce competition in every place. Once we stabilize the supply, we can go out of Baltimore and open up a wider market, and the drug business is basically Can't get out of Baltimore.

Finally, the mirage business is illegal now, but it doesn't mean it will be illegal in the future. The comprehensive embargo not only caused large-scale protests among the people, but also has many different voices among congressmen. Whether the wind direction will be reversed after the next general election is anyone's guess. have no idea.

If we can make a good layout in advance, once the wind direction changes, we can quickly clean up and become a legitimate business that is making money every day, and get on the train of the new era.

...

Epic's vision is indeed top-notch.

Not long after Mirage was launched, he was keenly aware of the opportunity and took action without hesitation, sending an email to Yunmeng to seek cooperation.

Although there was no response, and even Mirage was completely embargoed by the government, he did not give up and was always looking for opportunities.

And today is the time to reap the fruits.

As long as this order is completed, the road ahead will be smooth!

It's just that Epic was reassuring, when suddenly a younger brother rushed into this small conference room while shouting Boss, it's not good!

Boss, it's bad! Our goods were robbed by the marine police!

? Epic's face changed, he looked at his always quiet phone, turned his head and asked, How do you know?

Electricity, TV! Panting heavily, the younger brother pointed to the TV in the corner, Nightly News!

A confidant found the remote control to turn on the TV, and after changing the channel a few times, he successfully found the live news.

Looking at the background, this cargo ship will be able to dock in a few minutes, but it happened to be so close to the destination, and was stopped by the Coast Guard for inspection.

The reporter stood in front of the camera, broadcasting the breaking news with a serious face——

It is reported that during this surprise inspection, the Coast Guard discovered that the owner of the ship was smuggling a large amount of medicines, game consoles and a small number of illegal immigrants...

According to the Coast Guard report, the item with the highest value is the Mirage game console. According to preliminary statistics, there may be more than 50,000 units!

...

In a blink of an eye, the relaxed atmosphere disappeared without a trace, and everyone fell into silence, leaving only the sound of the TV echoing in the room.

Xiao Hei spoke first: Isn't this our product? Isn't our product 150,000 units?

He also thought that the younger brother had made a mistake, and the Coast Guard was confiscating someone else's goods.

But before anyone could explain, Epic suddenly became furious:

Damn it! The coast guard is also here to grab business?!

Thank you [Worriless Shadow Dance] for the 500 point reward.
