It didn't take long for the great magician Greenwin to operate the forum interface before he made an exchange with others and quit. Lin was not surprised. After all, there are not many things to see on the forum now. It is impossible for these magicians to compete with the great magicians.
Master, let’s look at the introductory knowledge that only apprentices need to learn.
The great magician who walked towards Lin no longer had the expression of a curious baby with shining eyes. When the novelty of the heat passed, he began to examine the practicality of the forum. The magician of the Lost World
They are all pragmatists. With a slightly pity expression, he said to Lin: "It's really a pity. Although the forum is very convenient for long-distance communication, not everything can be known to everyone."
"Oh, is it a matter of confidentiality? I have also considered this part." Lin then explained the design of the forum's permissions. While talking, the others also stood up.
Regarding forum permissions, Lin does not use the Earth-style method of distinguishing several levels of membership. Instead, he uses the Linux system method, which is divided into three categories: user permissions, group permissions, and guest permissions.
Turning on guest permissions means, without a doubt, that it is completely open to the outside world. In the established forum, all discussion threads in the 'Miscellaneous' discussion area are in a state where guest permissions are fully turned on by default.
When restricted to user permissions, no one except the user can open or modify it.
For Lin, the more troublesome design is in the group permissions. In the registration part, you only need to fill in the name, the organization you belong to, and the magician's own secret seal as the password. The name is the user, of course Lin slightly
Not to mention, it is impossible to verify whether the filled-in name is the real name. Directly state it in the description column after the space, which is the same as the name registered in the Magician Association. Guide others to use the real name to register, so as to avoid the inconvenience caused by anonymity in the future.
trouble.
The organization to which they belong will become the user's group name. If the group name has not been used before, a new group will be created at the time of registration, and a new discussion area will be created in the discussion area. This new discussion area
, the default is that only group members can view it. Then when subsequent people want to join this group, they need the consent of everyone in the group to become a member of the group.
A user can have multiple group identities. When a user does not log in to the forum for ten consecutive days, his or her authority will be suspended. If a user does not log in for one consecutive year, the user will be deleted, but the articles and replies submitted in the past will be retained.
This is used when someone is missing or dead, to prevent new members of the group from being able to obtain group permissions because the missing or dead person cannot agree. Or when everyone in the group - except the person involved - agrees.
Expelling someone will deprive them of group permissions.
In addition, all discussion forums are not designed to delete articles. In fact, this is Lin's deliberate decision. Anyway, no one in the Lost World knows that there should be an administrator in the discussion forum, so just treat it as if there is no one, and the background system and administrator permissions will be treated as
I opened the back door myself in case I need it in the future. But it is more likely that I just ignored it.
Otherwise, he would have to explain to a group of magicians who are more senior than him, why he can be the administrator of the forum, and why the rules are set in this way. Lin Guang couldn't help but tremble just thinking about it. If disorder is left unchecked for a long time, it will become self-defeating.
The order. Besides, you are using your real name. If you are really unhappy, just go out for real-person PK. The magicians in the Lost World are more practical than pragmatic.
Hiding what he shouldn't mention and what he didn't want to mention, Lin tried his best to explain to the five inspectors and magicians that they could understand. Greenwin and others recognized the forum, and at the same time raised the second question they were most concerned about: "This
Do you want to turn in the magic...program?"
Magicians and tower owners who are registered under the association can receive subsidies from the association at a fixed time. This money is not given in vain. Every magician must submit the same results to the association every three years. Of course, this is turned over.
It does not mean that the results belong to the association, it is just to prove that you are continuing to make progress on the path of magic.
When other people are interested in this magic, they can pay to obtain the content and learn to use it. In other words, the cultural level of the Lost World is almost equivalent to that of medieval Europe on Earth. But in the field of magic, it has already
There are concepts of patent rights and copyright fees.
For Lin, having another way to make money is something he desperately wants, so why should he cherish it? What's more, the most precious thing about a forum is the user group, not the forum structure. The more people use it, the more valuable it will be.
its value.
So when faced with Greenwin's question, Lin Ze said: "I'm ready for this." At the same time, he greeted Kaya. The brown-skinned girl then took out a wooden box for sealing and walked towards the crowd.
This kind of wooden box for sealing is used by magicians when they have to go through the chamber of commerce and exchange valuables or secret messages with the association. Generally, little thieves cannot break through the seal, but when they encounter robbers who are also magicians, it will not work.
.
The seal imposed on it will have each magician's own mark, which cannot be recovered after the seal is broken. Therefore, using this kind of wooden box is not so much to prevent thieves, but to prove that there is no magic weapon during transportation.
It has been opened by random people. It has a similar effect to the fire paint and wax seals in Europe in the Middle Ages on Earth.
However, the wooden box that Kaya brought had not been sealed at this time. Lin opened it casually and took out three handwritten booklets and three magic stones. On the red magic stone, there was a note with annotation tied to it.
The ribbon for marking has corresponding symbols to the booklet.
Putting them in order on the lid of the closed wooden box, Lin said: "These are the research results that I plan to submit to the association in this three-year period. They are domain name system, web page system, and browser. The first one
It is to simplify the conversion of the complex imprint of the magic tower energy pool into a universal and regular website, and can quickly communicate with each other. The second one is to build the foundation of the forum. The first two must have an energy pool as a carrier
, can be used. The third one is the Red Brilliance grade high-grade magic stone or above, which can be used as a carrier, and is also the terminal interface mainly used by magicians."
The reason why he was able to quickly prepare these things was because of the related concepts and designs. Lin had already conceived and experimented when he discovered that the power of magic in the Lost World was similar to an eight-bit computer. But the magic stones he could afford at that time were all
It was not enough to load server-level operations, so the program was limited to reasonable machine language logic. It was not until I became the tower master of the Tower of the Great Sage that I actually implemented the entire system and adjusted its content.
In other words, during these days, Lin's main job during the day was to debug and then put the system online. Feeling that he was going crazy catching bugs some time ago, Lin felt relieved at this time and said: "Relevant notes
Everything is ready. Originally, I was going to wait for the next convoy of the Chamber of Commerce to arrive and entrust them to send the things back to the association."
"Then..." Greenwin and other inspectors looked eager to give it a try, but they still restrained themselves and asked, "Do you plan to sell this knowledge at what price?"
Lin held up a finger and said, "Every iKiel."
The five inspectors were shocked! They also stretched out a finger and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "iKiel?"
After Lin's careful consideration, this price was definitely not too expensive, but too cheap. Looking at the five people opposite, their expressions were more exaggerated than when they first saw the forum and the video clip, Lin knew that this really shocked them.
.
Coins in the Lost World are minted in every country. Basically, as long as it is not bad money - the country where the mint is made is poor and has too many impurities in its coins - they can be circulated throughout the continent. Generally speaking, there are three types of coins.
:Kir, Jiang and Danba are actually gold coins, silver coins and copper coins.
Jiang and Danba are used for relatively small transactions, and are basically only used by ordinary people. Transactions between magicians are all in Kile. Half a year's worth of coarse grains for four people, i Kile (1 gold); Magic
Introductory books, each of which is xx Kil (20 gold); can be obtained from the association, the most widely spread high-level attack magic in the world of the Lost World - Samas Flame Snake Technique, cm Kil (900 gold)
.
As long as a general magician guides an apprentice, the monthly subsidy he can receive from the association is between xx and lxx kiir (20-70 gold).
iKiel's price is not that much for a formal magician. After all, magic knowledge is a one-time transaction, not an ongoing expenditure.
In fact, if the association did not allow free broadcasting, and the smallest unit of pricing was the Kiel, Lin would have considered setting a lower price. But free is impossible, so I would just pluck out the hair to supplement my family income.
The reason for pricing this way is because Lin still remembers hearing a word from Microsoft's boss Bill Gates a year before time travel. The main idea is: If there were no piracy in the world, Microsoft would be five times the size of the time.
More than times.
In fact, anyone who really understands knows that without piracy, Microsoft would not have had the same market share it did, let alone five times the market share.
Before computer windowing, there was a lot of contention among a hundred schools of thought, and Microsoft was the leader. When computer windowing started, that guy Steve Jobs not only sold the OS, but also had to package and sell it with his machine. Trust laws should deal with this guy first.
Windows has the opportunity to unify personal PCs, but it is only an opportunity. What truly allowed Windows 95 to unify the world was not the rampant piracy that led to its subsequent success.
For Lin, who came to the world of Lost World, instead of making money from selling the system, it is better to find ways to increase the user base. It is the same as operating online games or mobile games. Only when the number of users increases can you make money.
Opportunities. There is no such saying: free is the most expensive.
However, these principles are difficult to understand for the aborigines of the Lost World. After being shocked, Greenwin looked serious, coughed and cleared his throat before saying: "Tower Master, I believe you can also feel our
I am interested in these magic programs and intend to learn them. But I don’t want the price you set to be affected by the authority of our inspectors. We have no intention of coercing your lord, but we also don’t want these few
A magic becomes a bribe."
"Your Majesty the Great Magician, you really misunderstood." Looking at the other party saying cautiously, Lin quickly waved his hands and responded: "I don't mean any bribes or threats. This is really my original pricing idea. Of course, when it comes to the association
After that, subsequent management, copying, and copying of magic stones all require costs, and the price may not be just iGiel. This is not something I can decide. I just hope that if this thing is really convenient, there will be enough
It makes more sense if more than one person uses it.”
Looking at the thin booklet with a few sheets of paper and the red magic stones, Greenwin nodded in approval. General high-level magic knowledge is expensive, so the scribe's salary, paper and
The cost of other necessary add-ons is negligible. Not to mention that the association still has a tap in it.
However, for the three pieces of knowledge provided by Gabrashlin Tripwood, iKiel's selling price may not even be enough to cover the cost of copying them. Therefore, when the association sells this knowledge in the future, it will inevitably add the cost.
However, this also means that as long as you are responsible for the materials, the person in front of you will only charge iKiel.
Thinking of this, the five people almost acted in unison and took out a shiny gold coin and a yellow magic stone. "Then please ask the tower master to help me copy the browser's magic stone."
"Well, in fact, just use the Hongyao-level magic stone for the browser. Wouldn't it be too wasteful to get the Huangshang-level magic stone?"
"This is the lowest grade magic stone we have. It doesn't matter, just use this."
Damn it, these are a bunch of big dogs. Lin cursed in his heart.
