The people in Longbao Game Company are all business players. They only upgrade occasionally. This is only to make it easier to do business. For example, some rare materials or transactions must reach the corresponding level before they can be carried and traded.
Not only do these players rent office buildings to set up studios or even companies in real life, they even spend a lot of money to buy land and rent stores in the game to improve the game's reputation and popularity.
If combat players determine their ranking based on level and equipment quality, then merchant players determine the ranking of their shops based on their ‘reputation’.
'Public reputation' in the game is also an important attribute value, which can only be obtained through multiple transactions with NPCs or plot characters. Reputation is also the most important attribute for merchant players, which is equivalent to the output of a shooter, the tankiness of a warrior,
Very important.
The specific way to gain reputation requires merchant players to open stores in the main city or various small city-states in the wild and accumulate them.
Every transaction made by a merchant player needs to be taxed by the Hero City Federation. The more tax paid, the higher the reputation. The higher the reputation, the merchants can reach more in-depth transactions with NPCs.
In addition, if your reputation reaches a certain level, you can also dispatch local patrol soldier NPCs in the city-state, and have the opportunity to trigger high-society party missions and get in touch with noble plot characters in the game.
It is said that when merchants and players have a very high reputation, they can not only make money from players, but also money from NPCs in the game world.
You must know that gold coins are not only obtained by fighting monsters. The plot characters in this world also include many wealthy businessmen, dignitaries and high-ranking officials. The gold coins in their pockets are much more than those of wild monsters. Business players can use various means to
Earned.
The so-called is, three hundred and sixty lines, every line will lead to the number one scholar.
There are also many ways for merchants and players. Smart merchants can use their connections with NPCs and connect with high-level connections to act as middlemen and earn huge profits from price differences.
It is said that during the closed beta, there were super smart business players who cleverly discovered many business opportunities.
They first spend a large amount of gold coins at a high price to open a store in the main city to improve their reputation.
Then when the reputation value increases to a certain level, you can contact the giant businessmen or powerful NPCs in the main city and obtain tasks from them as businessmen.
These tasks are often very difficult, and it is absolutely impossible for businessmen to complete them, but they can contact high-end combat players through their connections.
In this way, high-end players need to pay some intermediary fees, and merchants will help introduce them to these tasks.
And those NPCs also need to pay intermediary fees to the merchants. After all, the latter are legal merchants who pay taxes in the Hero City and have a good reputation. It is very reasonable to charge intermediary fees for helping introduce warriors to complete difficult tasks.
In this way, the businessman charges both ends and can make a lot of money.
There are countless operations like this. The influence of merchant players in the game is not inferior to that of combat players.
The current Longbao Game Studio is the leader in this type of business players.
But Lin Luo never imagined that this speed was too fast.
It had just been one day after the server was launched, and I rented a storefront in Hero City. You must know that this location is very expensive. Even if you pay monthly, you can't get it with hundreds or thousands of gold coins.
...bang bang bang
Lin Luo knocked on the door three times without hesitation.
In the store, a fat middle-aged man in his thirties was holding a phone in one hand and drooling on the other hand, quickly counting his books.
"Oh, Boss Zhang! How many times have I told you that sharp-beak feathers are a rare material nowadays, and I don't have many of them. The unit price is fifty gold coins, so you can give me 20% of the price.
How do you want me to do business? So, give me half a day to think about it."
Daily items such as phones are exclusive to merchant players, and there is a reason why they are designed this way.
Because if some players have too many friends in the game, they will easily receive various messages, which will lead to the player having the habit of ignoring messages from friends.
The unique 'telephone' contact between merchant players has special prompts on the other side of the player.
This ensures that many transaction matters will not be delayed immediately.
After one phone call, there was another phone call in an instant.
"Hey, is it Brother Liu? Yes, yes... I'm Xiao Wang. I really can't receive the level 5 blue-equipped long sword you ordered this morning. After all, it's only been a day since the server was launched... In this way, look at the green-equipped sword.
Can you use the long sword first? I will contact you immediately if there are new products! For the sake of old customers, I will give you 92% off... OK, OK, OK, 95% off, 15% off! Then you can leave a
Coordinates, I’ll ask someone to send them to you now!”
"Hey! Is that Xiao Zhang from the finance department? Why haven't the 80,000 gold coins I promised you arrived this afternoon? My capital chain can't hold on anymore. I said there are hundreds of you, why is the gold mining efficiency so slow?
!”
Lin Luo and Tata stood at the door, watching this guy make phone calls one after another. They were afraid that the calls might not stop until tomorrow, so they could only raise the volume and cough twice:
"Excuse me, are you the boss Wang Xiaoer of Longbao Studio?"
The reason why it is called Longbao Studio is because it is just a semicolon of the head office. After all, there are eight main cities in the New World, and the stores in these eight main cities are called studios.
As soon as the middle-aged man saw someone coming in, he immediately looked at them.
Well, they are level three, and they all carry green weapons, so their origins should be unusual.
He immediately said to the other side of the phone:
"Sorry, Mr. Li, a customer just came to my store. I'll hang up the phone here and contact you later."
After hanging up the phone, he showed a warm smile and walked forward quickly:
"Welcome to Longbao Studio. Do you need any help?"
Lin Luo did not get straight to the point, but smiled politely and said:
"Boss Wang, this is just the first day of opening the server. Business is so good that all the stores have been rented."
Wang Xiaoer was stunned for a moment, then laughed:
"Everywhere, old customers are contacting me. Everyone plays games. People don't change as the games change. Our reputation at Longbao has always been pretty good in the industry."
He is the head of Longbao Game Company’s dealer in Hero City, and he claims to be one of the sales general managers of Longbao Entertainment Co., Ltd.
Of course Lin Luo knew that he was also being polite to her, so he went straight to the point and said:
"I have heard about your company for a long time. I was also introduced to it by a friend. I have some good equipment that I would like to buy from you."
This statement goes beyond simply buying and selling equipment, it also has another meaning.
Wang Xiaoer has been dealing with money all year round, so he is naturally very shrewd, and he instantly heard the implication of Lin Luo's words.
His expression softened and he asked:
"Oh? What do you call your friend?"
Lin Luo said:
"His surname is Gao. People in the circle call him Mr. Gao. He is the handsome one."
In reality, Gao's surname is not a popular surname, and the gaming circle is not that big. Besides, Lin Luo said he was handsome. Basically, Wang Xiaoer's shrewd mind could think of it in an instant.
His eyes lit up and he immediately thought of Mao Tou. He was also an old customer of Longbao. He was the financial backer that Wang Xiaoer had contacted when he first entered the industry. The two had met offline several times, so they spent a lot of money on this game.
, and the handsome financial owner is very impressive.
"Oh! Turns out he is a friend of Mr. Gao!"
Wang Xiaoer patted his head and came over with a smile on his face:
"I'm so rude and rude. Come on, please sit down and drink tea. What do you want me to call you?"
He walked over quickly and pulled out a tea set from the counter.
Lin Luo sat down on the soft animal skin sofa, waved to the handed teacup and said:
"My surname is Lin. You don't need to drink tea. My friend told me that you are a good person and you won't cheat people in business, so he introduced me. Don't talk nonsense, I will just take out the things. Boss Wang will look at you.
.”
Wang Xiaoer didn't know what he was thinking, but he had a righteous look on his face:
"That's natural! I've always been honest in my business dealings. I have a conscience in my throat and everything I say is from my conscience."
