The matter of the promotional video can only be discussed after Yang Ruoqian returns from abroad.
The grand occasion of the Kuiguang Group’s industrial chain can no longer solve the problem, so it’s better to ignore it and wait until the long vacation is over before coming back.
Although high-speed WiFi is available throughout the private plane, it does not mean that Yang Ruoqian will not block everyone's information.
Anyway, he would never take another look at what happened in these seven days.
Just when Mr. Yang was taking Chang Zhiqing on a tour, a few tourists came out from under the Kuiguang Building in Jinhai City.
"Holy shit!" A person couldn't help but shout loudly after leaving the elevator and getting into a rented car, "This is so cool! After so many years, I finally feel the terror I haven't felt for so long!"
As hardcore escape room enthusiasts, the two of them have played in many escape rooms all over the country...but at the same time, their threshold of fear is getting higher and higher, and they are becoming more and more familiar with all kinds of scary routines.
That initial sense of excitement is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
Nowadays, many escape rooms are disguised as horror and hardcore games, but in fact they are still the same old routine - even if many mistakes are made, the NPCs will let them go as much as possible so that players can experience the entire process.
Without the "life-threatening" aspect, the sense of immersion instantly collapsed.
But it’s different here at Kuiguang Group!
The two of them actually saw with their own eyes someone being dragged out and eliminated alive.
Although they had signed a contract beforehand, if someone was eliminated from the secret room for various reasons and did not experience the full content, Kuiguang Group would make a partial refund...
But who would want a refund if they were willing to spend thousands of dollars to play this escape room? It would be too bad to finally get a ticket to such a hardcore escape room, but in the end, they were refunded before they could finish the experience.
Just because you were lucky enough to get the tickets this time doesn’t mean you will be so lucky next time.
If you fail to grab a second ticket within a year, or if you grab a ticket but are eliminated midway like this time, the loss will be devastating.
"Keep your voice down and don't startle me." His companion started the car with lingering fear, "I'm a little afraid that a headless zombie will suddenly jump out in front of the windshield..."
"No, hurry back to the hotel. I'm itching to write a column. How can a secret room be so fun? Hurry up and introduce more people here. It's definitely worthy of its reputation."
As well-known players in the escape room circle, the two of them even gave advice to Kuiguang Group on building escape rooms in the early stages.
Who knew that the secret room created by Kuiguang Group would be even more terrifying than they suggested.
"Do you think we should ask the publicity department of Kuiguang Group for some money?" The driver joked, "We both have a good influence in this circle."
"Come on, you're still asking people for money. Do you think they'll pay any attention to you?" The passenger in the front seat yawned. "They don't have any trouble selling tickets. Do they need us to promote them? It's good enough that they don't ask us for copyright fees."
"Let's find a place to eat. I think a company that runs such a great secret room should have a good place to eat."
"It's mainly because it's not expensive." The man who had already turned on his phone and started writing a column shook his head. "Logically speaking, theme restaurants like this, which are located in shopping malls and have IP addresses, are going to be very expensive. A plate of vegetables costs 48... The prices at restaurants under the Kuiguang Group seem to be quite affordable."
"There are also expensive ones. I saw someone posted the high-end menu of that rare word restaurant online. If you only pick the expensive ones, a meal will cost tens of thousands."
"You also know that you only pick the expensive ones? I've seen the ingredients, and they're not cheap in themselves. They sell them at this price, basically just to make a profit from the processing fee, which is not expensive to be honest. If you go to other high-end restaurants, let alone whether the ingredients are so high-end, you'll be charged the service fee and processing fee alone."
“This is the first time I’ve seen such a conscientious merchant.”
"So how can others become giant companies in such a short period of time? This is the pattern. You can see that they have almost won the favor of everyone."
"Hurry up and eat. I'm exhausted from running through the last level... If we come up with a strategy guide, will it make the secret room easier?"
Even the two of them, the "professionals" who had played almost every escape room in the country, had to play until their last life to complete it. Could others withstand such intensity? If we come up with a strategy, perhaps more people could make it to the end of the escape room.
"Lower your ass! Do you think we are playing the same game as the variety show 'Escape Room Survival'? This show's crew is really crazy. If you dare to release a strategy today, they will adjust the escape room according to the key points in the strategy tomorrow. Whoever reads the strategy will be in trouble."
"Then I'm going to write it anyway, hahaha! Let them suffer the consequences, I can't be the only one to suffer."
"Let's eat, let's eat..."
…
At the same time, at a resort hotel that has hosted countless victims.
"I told you, Boss Yang is very generous." Yu Lanyun, who had just gotten off the plane, looked around her private room. "Even though we had booked a hotel, he still booked a room like this for us... If we booked it ourselves, it would cost at least 10,000 per night, right?"
Gu Jiwen sighed, "Yeah, it's a pity that Yang Ruoqian is going to travel abroad, otherwise he would have taken us out for a drink... Tsk, having dinner with the boss of Kuiguang Group in their business, how face-saving it is, we can spend the money, but it's mainly too face-saving."
When Yang Ruoqian picked them up at the airport, he forced them to stay in a hotel and lent them his black card. Then he went through security on the spot and boarded the plane to travel abroad.
The rich second generation Shao Yiqi was too lazy to go out and play when there were so many people around - after all, he was an executive of the Kuiguang Group and didn't have to squeeze in with the crowd at this time.
Of course, after all, we are old classmates, so it’s no problem to get together and play in our free time.
"Tsk, that's all you can do." Yu Lanyun put away her luggage, sat on the sofa and turned on her phone. "I heard that the first group of people who went to play in the escape room have already come out. Let's see what they say."
The two had never played escape rooms before, so they were going to challenge such a high level of difficulty right away, so of course they had to check the guide first.
Although the ticket purchasing mechanism of Kuiguang Group is completely random, it is easy to imagine that most of the people who are willing to grab tickets on the first day of a long holiday and be the first to try it out have never been exposed to escape rooms.
It would only take this kind of person an afternoon to write a guide.
Yu Lanyun just typed a keyword and saw the corresponding column.
"A guide to the same escape room strategy as Kui Guang's "Escape Room Survival"! (First edition, exclusive to the entire network, friends who have grabbed tickets should read it quickly, and no reproduction is allowed without the author's permission)"
"It's true!" Yu Lanyun exclaimed, "People nowadays are so efficient. Take a look quickly and write down all the key points."
Gu Jiwen also put away his things and came over: "Let me take a look, my memory is better than yours."
"hehe……"
"First of all, the plot of this locked room is much more streamlined than the variety show version... This is easy to understand. We only stayed in it for 3 days and 2 nights, while the variety show lasted for 3 weeks, so the plot will definitely be much less."
"Secondly, unlike variety shows, the simplified version of the escape room has groups, but no confrontation. The only difference between groups is the tasks, and there is no limit on the number of people who can escape. As long as everyone escapes, it counts as a successful clearance."
“…We won’t be dispersed when we go in.”
"Uh, the order of the elevator buttons is 21421. After pressing them, you can reach a hidden level with many rewards and dangers. Here's the specific strategy..."
"When you see the sports equipment room, turn around and run. How far can you run?"
“…”
"Finally, remember to bring a change of clothes. Although the atmosphere inside is horrible, the accommodation conditions are surprisingly good. As long as you block out those hellish filters, it's not inferior to an ordinary five-star hotel."
Gu Jiwen nodded seriously as he read: "It really feels scary. Fortunately, our seniors have saved us from danger. Haha."
"Tsk, and the accommodation conditions are really good."
After writing down all the key information, Gu Jiwen turned to the comment section of the column: "There are quite a few people in the comment section below. Are there so many people paying attention to this secret room?"
Yu Lanyun also opened her phone: "I'll take a look too... Wow, there are pinned comments from people who went there with me?"
"Let me see... uh, three days and two nights in total, he was eliminated without even spending one night? Isn't this too tragic?"
"This guy is just courting death! Look at his autobiography. How can anyone be chased into the toilet? Isn't this just courting death?"
"Well, he said he thought this secret room was like some games, where as long as he hid in a closet or toilet cubicle, the NPC would instantly become blind and stupid and let him go...hahahaha!"
"We will definitely not make such a mistake anyway."
"We're going there tomorrow, can you say you're not nervous at all?"
"A little bit, but it's okay. We have the cheats to pass the game, so there's nothing to be afraid of."
Just when the young couple was chatting happily, a message alert suddenly popped up in the class group.
Oh? The two looked at each other. Could it be a friendly reminder from Boss Yang? They quickly opened the group chat.
What I saw was an old acquaintance with an abstract avatar.
Shao Yiqi: "@Yu Lanyun@Gu Jiwen, by the way, are you two going to that secret room tomorrow?"
Wu Zizheng: "What? You guys actually got the tickets? This is not fair. I want a rematch!"
Shao Yiqi: "Didn't I give you a coupon? Go eat it yourself."
Yu Lanyun: "Yes, rich second generation, do you have any friendly tips for us?"
Shao Yiqi: "It's just a friendly reminder. I just saw someone post a column about escape room strategies... I can only say that you can just take a look at it, but don't believe it, at least don't believe it completely."
Gu Jiwen: "Ah?! Could it be that this person has been bribed by your company? Is he deliberately spreading false information?"
Shao Yiqi: "I'm not in charge of this business, so I don't know whether it's true or not. But I know the nature of the people who work on variety shows... Do you think they won't read this column? Do you think they can't adjust the secret room all the time?"
"Want to follow this guide to clear the game? I tell you, you will definitely be cheated - it's not like you haven't watched variety shows before, even the official reminders you get in the secret room can be tampered with, how can the cheats for tourists not expire?"
"Although I don't care about this, you should still listen to my advice. It will help to keep your life safe."
Gu Jiwen, who had just memorized the entire strategy with great effort, had no time to pay attention to his girlfriend's laughter. He was a little dumbfounded: "Ah? Then didn't I memorize the strategy in vain?"
Shao Yiqi: "That's not the case. The production team will consider many aspects. They might change the rules, or keep some of them... In short, you can't believe them completely, nor can you disbelieve them completely."
Gu Jiwen: "It's better if it's all fake!"
Shao Yiqi: "Anyway, that's all the tips. I'm going to go to the filming site of "The Richest Man in Jinhai City" later and show them how real rich people live. Hahaha!"
"What is this movie about? I'm a little curious."
"It's a commercial secret. I can't tell you."
“…”
…
At the same time, the filming site of "The Richest Man in Jinhae City".
On the huge filming site, there are now only three pitiful people - Guo Rang, the screenwriter who works countless part-time jobs, and Shao Yiqi.
Guo Rang, who always knew that the company's rules were strict, wiped a cold sweat: "Boss Shao, aren't you on vacation at home? Wouldn't it be bad if Boss Yang knew about this?"
"I'm not here to work." Shao Yiqi spread his hands nonchalantly. "Am I employed by the crew? No, if not, then it's not my job. Since it's not my job, I'm here just out of interest."
Shao Yiqi suddenly realized that sometimes it was only reasonable to work overtime if he was not assigned any work.
This can be considered as a reasonable use of the company's rule bug.
"What are you doing here today?" Shao Yiqi looked around the empty studio. "Have you prepared all the props?"
Guo Rang scratched his head: "Not yet... But President Yang approved a lot of funds for us, saying that we should not use props, and just buy the real thing like the real rich people use."
"I know this!" Shao Yiqi slapped his thigh, "I know it too well! Tell me what your protagonist's personality is, and I'll customize one for you."
The other party was also a senior executive of the company, so there was no need to hide the script. Guo Rang said directly: "Mr. Shao, the general situation is that the protagonist has obtained a huge fortune, but must lose it all within a specified time, otherwise he will not get the reward later."
"Loss... can't be given away, can only be invested?" Shao Yiqi nodded, "I know a little about this, come on, get in the car, I'll tell you how to act to play the role of a funny nouveau riche."
Guo Rang nodded, and got into Shao Yiqi's car with the screenwriter: "Thank you for your guidance." (End of this chapter)
