Chapter 86: A new paradise?
After seeing off the people from the Tourism Bureau on September 9th, Chi Yizheng returned to his security room.
Although the new dormitory building was complete, no one had moved in yet. Chi Yizhen planned to hold a move-in ceremony for Sal, Chi Xiaozhen, and the others when they returned, and then move in together. Normally, he was still used to thinking and working alone in the security room.
Since Director Zhou had solemnly promised to fully cooperate, Chi Yizheng did not delay and immediately asked the intelligent system to create an online sales website. Speaking of which, this intelligent system was a reward when the daily passenger flow exceeded a certain number. It is usually responsible for maintaining the operation of the entire park, monitoring whether there are any irregular behaviors among tourists, and is also responsible for filming and collecting evidence of illegal personnel. Previously, when someone came to the park to steal, throw snakes, and during the special show, this intelligent system accounted for more than half of the credit.
After setting up the online sales website, he contacted Hohoda by phone. The dwarves in the restaurant were very curious about everything on Earth. Although they could not leave their work area, they still learned a lot in the process of communicating with tourists. Now they can skillfully use mobile phones to send messages and make calls.
After receiving the call from the director, Huo Huoda immediately said, "Don't worry, Director, we have already finished the first batch. I will go back and pick up the goods after get off work."
Chi Yizhen: "Thank you for your hard work."
Hohoda was flattered. "It's not hard work at all. It's our honor to work for the director."
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Huo Huoda got off work and returned to the dwarf elves' territory through the teleportation array to move several boxes of goods. Several large boxes were placed on the grass next to the teleportation array. When they were opened, they were all filled with packaged accessories. This was the "holographic equipment" that Chi Yizheng was preparing to sell overseas.
There are several main styles, namely earrings, rings, necklaces and bracelets.
Initially, Chi Yizhen planned to create glasses, just like he had done in the early days of the park, but later on, he felt that glasses were still not very convenient. The glasses were originally designed to cover the "holographic" image, but that wasn't necessary for overseas situations. Furthermore, the glasses simply imbued the wearer with some supernatural power, allowing them to see monsters clearly; they weren't essential.
Compared with small accessories such as earrings and rings, glasses are large and inconvenient to wear. They also need to be taken off when taking a bath or washing your hair, and are easy to be snatched away. Small accessories are more discreet to wear and generally not easy to fall off.
This time, Chi Yizhen didn't plan to buy a carrier for his supernatural power. Ordinary materials couldn't hold the supernatural power for more than two hours, which wasn't enough time to transport it. He had to use supernatural materials to craft it. This might be difficult for an ordinary person, but Chi Yizhen was different. He owned an entire fantasy park, and the park was currently at level 25, just like him. He could just scrape together some scraps and it would be enough to make quite a few.
The task was still given to the dwarf elves.
They have more than 100,000 members. In addition to making and packaging snacks for the visitor center every day, they have also got a new job. They are very busy every day and have also left many interesting clips for the dwarf channel of the hot spring center.
This was a task assigned to the dwarf elves a few days ago. Chi Yizheng originally thought that the dwarf elves were not good at making anything other than delicious food, but now he was a little surprised after seeing the finished product.
Hohoda said a little embarrassedly, "The director gave us all high-quality extraordinary materials. We, the dwarf elves, have no experience and were worried about wasting good materials, so we asked our dwarf friends who are good at making props for help. These ornaments were made by us and some dwarves together."
"Very beautiful, thank you." Chi Yizheng picked up a few pieces of jewelry and looked at them for a while, saying sincerely.
The white-furred dwarf, slightly encouraged by the compliment, shook his paw and even wagged his tail, clearly delighted. "We'll notify the director immediately once the next batch of goods is ready."
Chi Yizhen nodded and took the boxes of jewelry back. Processing the extraordinary materials into jewelry was only the first step. Next, he had to "enchant" these jewelry, that is, mark them with the mark of the fantasy paradise and inject them with the appropriate amount of extraordinary energy.
When he was only level three or four, Chi Yizhen needed to inject them one by one, and it took a lot of time to process hundreds of pairs of glasses. But now that he is level 25, he can carry out batch processing. It took him less than half an hour to complete the processing of this batch of accessories. Then he asked Meng Xiaodai to come over to take pictures and upload them to the online website.
Of course, Meng Xiaodai could not complete such a large workload within one day alone, so she called on several colleagues to help.
Everyone was surprised when they opened the box and took out the ornaments.
"It's so beautiful!" A male colleague held a ring up to the light.
"Boss, is our theme park going to enter the jewelry industry?" Meng Le came over to take a look and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
In their eyes, these ornaments have both the luster of metal and the warmth of wood. They cannot tell what material they are made of, but they are very eye-catching, very eye-catching. They are the kind that they will definitely take a second look at even if they are placed in a glass cabinet.
They didn't know that these accessories were already extraordinary props. Whether ordinary people or extraordinary people, they would instinctively like items that could enhance their energy, and the latter would even be more sensitive.
Chi Yizhen said: "You don't need these things. This is the holographic equipment to be sold overseas."
A group of people exclaimed, saying that this was much more advanced than the previous holographic glasses.
Chi Yi really thought that was the case. After all, how could plastic glasses compare with extraordinary materials?
This batch of goods was photographed and sorted on the same day, and put on the website for sale at the same time as the news was announced the next day.
On the morning of September 10th, the day the news was announced, Chi Yizhen received a message from Director Zhou, asking him how he planned to sell these "holographic devices." Chi Yizhen replied naturally, "The production process for these devices is quite complicated. We only have five boxes now. Director Zhou will naturally arrange the first box of the first batch. I'm not sure which countries the other boxes will be distributed to. So, once you've discussed everything, let me know."
This means fully supporting Zhongzhou's initiative in negotiations with overseas countries!
Director Zhou was indeed happy, but while she was happy, she also did not forget to shout slogans, saying that Fantasy Park has enhanced Zhongzhou's scientific and technological strength and foreign export trade, and is the most outstanding enterprise in Zhongzhou. Chi Yizheng was speechless after hearing this.
The negotiation did not seem easy. It was not until the third day that Chi Yizheng received the confirmation. Since then, the sales of the online sales website have skyrocketed, and the transaction amount has been directly deposited into the account of Fantasy Park without charging any taxes.
Seeing that everything was going smoothly, Chi Yizheng stopped paying attention to it, but it was a pity for the cloud tourists.
Zheng Song is one of those online tourists. His family is from northern China and has always worked there. When Fantasy Park first became popular, he scoffed at it. But as more and more live broadcasts, videos, and photos of the park became available online, he went from being skeptical to a daily fan.
Although he occasionally wondered about the holographic technology at Fantasyland, who cared less? He couldn't figure out how his phone, which he carried with him every day, worked, but he still used it. Besides, wouldn't the advance of such advanced technology benefit the public?
Because the distance is too far and there are few holidays during the weekdays, even if there are weekends, it is not enough for a round trip. Therefore, Zheng Song can only wait until the National Day holiday to go there for fun. However, there will definitely be a lot of people traveling during the National Day, and Jinan City where the Fantasy Park is located has no airport. It is quite troublesome to take a plane, transfer to the high-speed rail, and then take a taxi. He is not sure whether he can buy a ticket. He was worrying about this these days, and suddenly he saw the news that the Fantasy Park has opened online sales.
This made Zheng Song very happy. He talked about it for a long time at the company, and as soon as he got home, he immediately went online to grab the goods. He also mobilized several cousins in the family group to help him grab them, and vowed that he would lend them the goods for a few days if they got them.
After all, the holographic equipment produced by Fantasy Park is not cheap. The cheapest earrings cost two hundred dollars, which is equivalent to more than one thousand yuan. His cousins are all in school, so only he, the eldest cousin who has a job, can afford it.
Many people on the Internet were paying attention to this matter. The sales website was as slow as a PPT. Zheng Song squeezed in and placed an order and paid without thinking, but was reminded that he could not make the purchase. He was dumbfounded.
His parents had long been fed up with him not getting married at his age and spending all day playing with electronic products. When they learned he couldn't get any goods, they were actually amused. At the dinner table, his father pointed at him and said, "What's so fun about the theme park? It's just full of foreign-worshiping, money-hungry capitalists. Look at them, they sell to foreigners instead of you."
Zheng Songke couldn't stand his words and retorted, "It's all in the news. Not long after the park opened, they started supporting their hometown's industries and promoting their hometown's culture. The director isn't the kind of person you describe. If they really wanted to worship foreign things, they would have taken their core technology abroad long ago. Why would they open a theme park in China? If they really only care about money, why don't they start a tech company and go public to reap the profits? It's much more profitable than running a theme park."
However, the older generation was stubborn and Zheng Song could not convince him. He was also upset that he could not get the goods, so he went back to his room and started surfing the Internet.
Online reactions to the park's online sales being limited to overseas markets were also intense. The park's promotional account had clearly stated in its post that it was an "overseas online sales website," and the word "overseas" was even mentioned on the website. However, many people, like Zheng Song, rushed in as soon as they saw the online sales announcement, worrying only that they wouldn't be able to snag the holographic equipment if they were slow, without paying close attention to the specifics. Some even dismissed the "overseas" mention, and since state media had reposted the announcement, they assumed the park's services were being launched simultaneously domestically and internationally, completely unaware that there was no domestic sales activity at all.
For the first time, the comment section of Fantasy Park was in chaos. Some people rushed in with great difficulty only to find that they could not grab anything and were venting their dissatisfaction; some were questioning the composition and political stance of the park, saying that the park had lost its original intention; some were asking when the park would release the same jewelry, or authorize other merchants to do so, because they thought it was so beautiful and wanted to wear it; of course, there were also many people speaking up for the park.
Zheng Song looked at these comments and slowly calmed down. He still remembered the last time MT Group and the theme park cooperated to make a movie. He suspected that there was some pressure from MT Group. He felt that it made no sense for the theme park to give up such a big piece of cake in the domestic market.
Many netizens shared the same suspicion as him, but before Zheng Song could make his own comment, he saw that the official Weibo of Fantasy Park had released a new update, which was an interview with the park's director.
It was the familiar Jinan TV station, the familiar reporter Fang Jiu, and the familiar question, "Director, why aren't holographic devices sold domestically? Is it really, as everyone speculates, due to pressure from the MT Group?"
The headmaster in the camera slowly said, "Actually, everyone is overthinking it. There is only one reason: poverty."
reporter:……
audience:……
Everyone on and off the screen was stunned for a moment, then the park director continued, "Actually, without the support of the park's large-scale equipment, the effects of those holographic decorations are far inferior to the experience inside the park. The reason they opened a website to expand overseas sales is actually because they are currently building a 300-acre Prank City within the park, but the park is running out of funds..."
By this point, the audience's attention had already been diverted. What? The park was opening a new one? A three-hundred-acre city of pranks!
Three hundred acres!
It is four times the size of the current Fantasy Park!
