Chapter 469: Illegal Gambling Case in the Virtual World!
To be honest, if this game was made by NetDragon, Lin You would be waving money to poach people without saying a word.
It's just that it's not easy for Feihu, and we are still partners, so I feel a little embarrassed.
Lin You reacted like this, one can imagine how excited the players were.
Players who play games all night like Lin You don't have little dreams to urge them to catch up on sleep like him.
After clearing the game, this group of people immediately turned into Flying Fox and bragging about it, frantically posting "Flying Fox is awesome!" wherever they can post.
Big and small game media and self-media also followed up immediately, boasting about "The Last Moment".
"Full score game", "perfect game", "the last glory of VR games"... all kinds of exaggerated compliments, don't splash them like money.
Game colleagues, as practitioners, can deeply appreciate the power of games——
Whether it is the mining of hardware capabilities, or the story of the game itself, the arrangement of rhythm, and the handling of details, they are all amazed by all aspects.
And with that, I feel sad again.
This morning, Flying Fox's "The Last Moment" became the center of the topic in the player circle without a doubt!
Even the news of Yunmeng's unprecedented launch of 40 million units of [Mirage 2.0] did not cause much sensation.
On the contrary, it was the news that caused a great sensation overseas.
On Yunmeng's side, before the dust settled, she did not publicize the cooperation with Australian and Russian companies.
But in Australia and Russia, gossip has been circulating since the cooperative company started. After successfully returning to China with Yunmeng's contract and Yunmeng's technicians, I wish everyone would know about it.
They can earn very little money from Yunmeng's console and games, and they don't even have much say in the operation of the game.
But they are still very excited about the cooperation!
Of course, this is not because Yunmeng has given them ecstasy soup, but because there are greater interests waiting for them——
The right to bid for the organization of game events, as well as the participation of domestic brand partners for dividends.
——How much money can you make from the player? If you want to earn, earn capitalists' money!
Besides, as long as Yunmeng's game activities are done well, it will also make a lot of money every day.
And the most important thing is - this money can be earned continuously!
All they need to do is to open up joints, fully promote, after-sales maintenance and other routine things, and there is no pressure to do them.
Can this not be exciting?
Players from both countries are equally excited.
I can't wait for the partner company in my country to purchase and supply from Yunmeng in bulk. Even if I have to spend a lot of extra money on logistics, I don't hesitate to place an order from Yunmeng immediately to buy the mirage host.
Only after the server is connected, you can enter the virtual world for the first time.
This caused 40 million Mirage consoles to drop in inventory like water—players from Southeast Asian countries are still placing orders!
Especially the Siamese users——Lin You didn't even want to call them "players". Too many of these people came in to play cards.
On Thursday, there was an anecdote - for the netizens and media in Daxia, it was undoubtedly an anecdote.
The Siam police cracked a 【Virtual World Illegal Gambling Case】.
This case is quite outrageous——
Eight people went to set up a stall in the virtual world, playing cards and gambling.
Someone plays, someone calls, and someone counts the chip changes.
Every time 10 rounds are played, everyone goes offline to play money with each other and liquidate the gambling funds.
After the transfer is over, go online and continue to gamble.
This kind of gambling is supposed to be absolutely safe—the Siam police can’t see things in the virtual world, and Yunmeng officials can’t control what users do offline.
How did you solve the case in the end?
This kind of small gambling stall between several people, between strangers, is difficult to organize——
The problem of trust is difficult to solve: everyone does not know each other, how do I know that I have sent money to you, will you call me?
So these people are actually acquaintances.
As a result, one unlucky guy lost too much, became impatient, and was unwilling to pay. The rest of the gamblers forced him to withdraw money offline, and he was even beaten.
Losing money and being beaten again, how can you bear it? !
Under the rage, this buddy ran directly to the police station and surrendered.
Then, based on the group chat and transfer records he provided, the police counted one by one and arrested them all...
Players first heard this news from [Shemale Friend] Mario's live broadcast room.
At that time, the water friends in the live broadcast room burst out laughing.
——By the way, in Yunmeng's live broadcast room, there are quite a number of overseas anchors. With the help of simple enough barrage and voice translation functions, there are almost no obstacles for the anchors to interact with water friends.
When proper nouns such as personal names and place names are involved at most, there are occasional ambiguities in understanding.
After receiving the news, many game media searched for related news, and finally found it!
The case was immediately aroused.
At that time, Shen Ping asked Lin You if he wanted to respond, or if there was any way to prevent it.
Lin You immediately shook his head and refused.
This kind of thing cannot be regulated.
Unless you completely ban all Siamese players from playing cards in the virtual world, even this ban is difficult to achieve.
With the high degree of freedom that Lin You gives players in the virtual world, these people can cut a tree in the game, and they can hand-carve a set of mahjong tiles.
If you want to block even this block, it will involve another set of more complicated algorithms.
Lin You was really too lazy to do this job.
I really want to gamble, they can gamble with mobile phone chat software, throwing dice, this matter is really out of Yunmeng's control.
...
In this way, [Mirage 2.0] host inventory decreased rapidly, and the word-of-mouth of Feihu "The Last Moment" continued to ferment.
It's just that in comparison, the word-of-mouth of "The Last Moment" is difficult to convert into sales.
The existing existing users are fine, driven by word of mouth, many can be activated.
However, it is very difficult to use word-of-mouth effect to drive more sales of hardware equipment and generate new users.
Even the small amount of inventory left by Flying Fox is very difficult to decline.
Feihu's boss, Lu Hui, even felt that Yunmeng's 40 million Mirage 2.0 inventory was cleared, and his less than one million units of equipment could not be cleared...
In the final analysis, a set of VR equipment is too expensive.
In contrast, Yunmeng's side is much better: the sale of each mirage host drives the sales of other Yunmeng games.
Just like everyone's daily shopping, after buying a large item, it is easy to buy a lot of peripheral things. When a user buys a Mirage host, it is easy to buy a few games by the way.
Are the games expensive?
A bit expensive.
But compared with the mainframe, it is very cheap.
So almost every console release is a natural game promotion.
...
That night, a new "concert" was quietly held in the [Circular Auditorium] in Night City.
There was no publicity, and players who were using the [Review] function to revisit An Rongyi's concert accidentally bumped into it.
——The concert in progress, suddenly the music slowly lowered and stopped, and the lights dimmed.
When the lights came back on again, the one standing on the stage was Tian Wang Fan Si - the singer who started out as a singer and later moved to film and television, and rarely held concerts anymore.
At first everyone was very excited and called their friends to come and see this surprise concert.
But after only two songs passed, some fans at the scene discovered one thing——
"Isn't this...Da Fan's performance at that concert three years ago?"
Interested people immediately dug up the video for comparison, and found that it was exactly the same.
—Of course they are exactly the same! This was originally the "screening right" that Yunmeng bought with money. After re-production, it was released as a virtual reality reset version.
This was originally an option for the Queen of Songs who couldn't be invited - Lin You would rather play the video than recruit some inexplicable little fresh meat to sing saliva songs.
In the end, although the princess invited An Rongyi because of her face, the work has not been let go. Up to now, eight concerts have been reset.
After that, it will reappear in the [Ring Hall] once a week.
Every time the players have participated in a concert, they can get a special [Record] item, they can return to their own personal game world, use this [Record] in the [Ring Hall], and perform [Record] at any time. Look back】.
This is equivalent to an alternative collection system, which really makes the [ring concert hall] functional and becomes the players' private "record player".
The only exception is An Rongyi's [Meeting Sometimes] concert.
Any player who walks into the circular concert hall and unlocks the "Voice Player" function will directly unlock this [Meeting Sometimes] record.
Many players who were unable to watch Quan An Rongyi's concert because of the online world's melee before made up for it through this system.
It’s very interesting to say that before An Rongyi’s concert, as the sales of Mirage hosts continued to soar, many brokerage companies that had contacted in the early stage had regretted it, and began to contact Yunmeng proactively, saying that “it’s not impossible to consider” .
After An Rongyi's concert, she was no longer reserved at all and said bluntly: "I hope to have a chance to cooperate."
Yunmeng didn't refuse, but if you come again now, then I won't give you money, so please come.
If you come to my venue, do you need to give me money?
He didn't ask for much, and just charged a fee for renting the venue—in fact, Lin You didn't care about that money at all, he just wanted to let out a sigh of relief.
——Let you deal with me with the little fresh meat.
In contrast, An Rongyi received extremely high courtesy - come anytime! When you come, I will give you Zhang Luo! Not only do you not need money, we will give you money back, the best!
This is Lin Youtan's concept of cooperation, full of willfulness and quackery like "making friends".

The next day, the 3rd Night City Indiscriminate Death Racing Competition continued as usual.
[King of the Track] Failed to hit the championship for the third time, and the shame was broadcast.
Before the broadcast, I issued a declaration again: the sword refers to the champion of the 4th drag racing competition!
At the same time, Super Tomato [Villager Breeder] has been upgraded again, and has come to [3.0] version - [Full-automatic Villager Breeder]!
The hands are completely liberated, and even the love triangle and NTR elements are creatively added, which is full of drama.
According to Yunmeng's habit of going online after a week of testing, he has already started working overtime to edit the film, and can't wait to present his excellent creation to the audience.
...
...
As for Lin You, the weekend is very simple: after getting up on Saturday, practice boxing and horseback riding; after getting up on Sunday, practice boxing and horseback riding...
And so on and on until a new week arrives.
Today is the last day of the double monthly pass, ahem, everyone can consider mine.
And, thank you very much to everyone who has voted for me!
