Chapter 188 - Launch
"I'm not worried. Tomorrow you'll be the high-spirited Young Master Qin again." Shi Feiye was also happy for Qin Bulu.
"Thank you for your kind words." Qin Buzhu's smile widened. After preparing for so long, he was finally taking the first step towards success. Naturally, he was happy. As long as this thing was accomplished, he could return to his old life.
Thinking that Shi Feiye could once again have a luxurious wardrobe and eat delicious food, and no longer have to live such a frugal life, Qin Bulu's mood inevitably improved.
The two chatted about some other things, hung up the phone, and went about their own business.
The next day, Shi Feiye naturally encountered her share of challenges, but her mission was to observe and learn. Everyone was still in the adjustment period, so figuring out how to arrange things efficiently and getting the actors into the groove required some skill. Many factors also influenced the performance of different actors in different roles. Haidong didn't let her do a lot of work right off the bat; he just wanted her to figure it out.
Fortunately, the actors chosen were all experienced, and Director Wang chose them all as hardworking individuals who don't like to play with their futures. They were all quite cooperative, and there weren't any of the mischievous people that appeared on other crews.
At lunchtime, Shi Feiye had written a bunch of things in her notebook. Everyone took turns taking breaks. She ate her lunch while checking her phone. The holographic online game had officially been released, and even the supporting actors sitting next to her were enthusiastically discussing the topic:
"See? The holographic online game is finally out! Look at how popular this offline experience center is! I'm afraid we'll have to wait in line for three or four days. If I weren't on a film set, I'd be tempted to give it a try. Waiting a few days wouldn't matter."
"Can you not say it? I was itching to do it. I finally managed to control myself and came to the crew to film for the money. Now you're saying it again. I'm so angry that I'm going to die."
"You're on a film set for the money. Those waiting in line to play holographic online games are all poor people. Rich people just spend 100,000 yuan to buy game pods. Just think about it, buying a game pod and playing whatever you want at home is better than waiting in line to play games, right?"
"That hundred thousand yuan is not something that ordinary people can afford. It's just a game cabin. Even if it comes with some game stuff, it's still just a game cabin. Who can spend so much money on a game unless they are rich?"
"That's not the truth. If this holographic online game is really as good as I imagined, then I'd be happy to spend the money. What's the point of living in this world, isn't it just to have fun? A hundred thousand dollars to travel in a game every day, and if the scenery is truly as realistic as the real thing, it's even more worthwhile than taking a trip."
"I think we should wait and see. For the first few days, only the rich will be able to try it. Later, when ordinary people can play the game, word will spread about whether it's good or not. Then we can decide whether to get a gaming pod. But even if we buy a pod, we'd still have to experience it first and see more. After all, it's not a small amount of money."
"I just want to have a good fight in the game. Didn't Zou Lianxun say that in the live broadcast before, you can choose the pain level in the game. It will definitely be more exciting than playing computer games. Once I become a big boss, I will definitely be very tough."
"Come on, what game doesn't require real money? Rich people are always the bosses. Even if we buy a gaming pod, we'll just be working as a bricklayer. I think maybe we can earn our money back through gaming."
"You didn't watch the livestream, did you? Zou Lianxun said this game is tied to your character. You can only create three characters at a time, and your online time doesn't increase just because you create more characters. It's always a maximum of four hours a day. There's also a transaction limit. Even if you work your ass off, you'll only earn so little money. It's useless."
"Ah? Doesn't that mean this game can only be played?"
"That's about right, but it's good this way. It effectively prevents studios from disrupting the game order. The rich can only be fancy noobs at best, and if they don't have the skills, they won't be able to play. It's more fair, and this is how the game becomes more interesting."
"That's true. Most online games on the market right now are ruined by money transactions and inadequate gameplay. If these two aspects can be addressed, the rest can extend the game's lifespan. Buying a gaming pod that can last for ten years is worthwhile. If the details are well-designed, you might be able to play for even longer."
"I think it would be perfect if this game pod could be connected to other games released by Yusheng Company in the future, but I'm not sure if it will work."
"You're dreaming. It seems like selling gaming cabins is just a one-time business, but they won't make any money in the future. Besides, do you think developing a holographic online game is that easy?"
"Why don't you give me some thought? I don't have the money to buy it now anyway. I can save up some money. Maybe after I finish filming this drama, I'll have enough money."
"Didn't you say you were going to save money for a down payment? Do you still have money to buy a gaming cabin now?"
"Then I won't pay less. I was planning on paying 50%, but now I'll just pay 40%. As for the house, as long as I have a place to live, it's fine. At worst, I can just pay a little more each month. If I die, I can't take the house with me. But games are different. Your happiness is your own. Even if you die, as long as your memories are there, your happiness will be there."
"Hey, you're quite reasonable. That's good. No wonder you weren't angry even after being scolded by the director."
"What's there to be angry about? If you can't do it, just blame yourself. Why blame others? As long as there's money to be made, those are trivial matters. I don't care."
As the group of people were talking, the topic drifted off to some unknown place. Shi Feiye became more confident that Qin Bu Ru would return to the top. Look at these not-so-rich people planning to buy game cabins, so would other rich people not buy one?
Who wouldn't want to try this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity? Who wouldn't want to experience the reality of the illusion? So Qin Buzhu was sure to make a killing. With this initial capital, he'd have something to back him up no matter what he did, and he wouldn't face the embarrassing fallout from before.
So, this is what a great boss is like. Failure isn't truly failure, but rather a calculated, step-by-step approach, a temporary retreat for a brighter future. Success isn't a fleeting prosperity, but rather a foundation that can last for many years, ensuring that other businesses won't stumble again.
Shi Feiye believed that even if she lived another twenty years, she would never be able to achieve such ability and vision. This was a matter of vision and the height of her thinking. As a commoner, she dared not even think about it.
That's not the case. It should be said that she didn't have that desire either, just like those gorgeous clothes and delicacies weren't as attractive to her as she imagined.
Call her born poor, call her shortsighted, she simply can't see the difference between things worth tens of thousands of yuan and those worth a few thousand. She also feels that living in a huge villa isn't as comfortable as living in an ordinary high-rise apartment of just over a hundred square meters. Rather than wearing tens of thousands of yuan worth of clothes and attending parties, she prefers to sit on the balcony, swinging on the swing and reading a book.
This is a character and habit that has been developed since childhood and cannot be changed.
While the lives of the rich may seem luxurious, Shi Feiye herself feels that having 10 to 20 million is more than enough for her to spend for the rest of her life, and she can live a very comfortable life.
So until this moment, Shi Feiye was simply happy for Qin Buru, and hadn't thought about how much her life would change. Even if Qin Buru didn't give her a penny, she now had her own money, enough for her to live on.
The feeling of being happy for Qin Buzhu was more from the perspective of a friend. How could one not be happy when a friend who treated one well failed and then returned to the top?
Feeling happy, Shi Feiye sent a message to Qin Bulu:
Congratulations, sir, on your return to the top! Even our crew is discussing holographic online games and even talking about buying gaming pods. Handing him a cup of tea, I'll say this: If you become rich, don't forget me. Please cling to me. [Cling to me]. jpg
She guessed that Qin Buzhu couldn't see her message. Today was the first day of the launch, so he must have been very busy. After sending the message, he went back to checking Weibo and the web.
In the large conference room of Yusheng Company, the person giving the presentation was speaking excitedly, and everyone else was listening intently. Amidst the joyful atmosphere, a reminder bell suddenly rang. The person giving the presentation paused, and everyone turned their heads in unison, realizing the sound had originated from their own **ss's desk, and the main source of the sound was **ss's phone.
The reminder bell I heard before was clearly not this?
Qin Buzhu lightly reminded the person giving the report: "Please continue."
Then he picked up his phone and took a look at the message sent by Shi Feiye. Not only did he not put it down, he also typed a reply:
"My thighs are not good, I can't bear it, but my waist is fine."
Everyone glanced at each other, seeing the gossip in each other's eyes. The special alert ringing, coupled with the immediate reply without even a second's wait, made it seem like something was off. It was most likely a message from the boss lady. This was a completely unprecedented event.
But considering that today was a special day, it was normal for the boss lady to be worried, so everyone hid their gossipy looks.
Stay calm, everyone, stay calm. After today, we've all seen the world. Next time, just be a little more respectful to the boss lady.
The presenter continued his report, and the meeting continued. Qin Buzhu sat at the head of the table, his expression expressionless and indifferent, as if the chaos and heated discussions outside had nothing to do with him. This gave everyone present a lot of confidence.
Look at my own **ss, they look like they have experienced a lot, so calm, even if something unexpected happens today, they will definitely be able to handle it successfully, yes, that's it
