"The system didn't discuss it with us. This is a notification."
"What do you think?"
"Great perseverance, great courage"
"I don't think it's easy to make this determination. The key lies in the external environment."
"Yes, we have gained so much from online, it is too difficult to give up all of a sudden."
"Then it's just cooperation?"
"I estimate that the number of players and tourists will not increase in the future."
"50 million is indeed too much."
"That's fine, haha..."
"How are you? Why did you get a letter of appointment this time, but there is no letter of appointment signed by the chairman?"
"The appointment letter has a term of office..."
"So use this letter of appointment to test Zero's possible reaction?"
"I think so"
"How long is the term?"
"6 months"
"ah?"
"Haha... I only have 6 months left in my term. When I get out of this pit of fire, I will come to you."
"The dignified CEO of Canaan International Group? I don't have room for you here."
"In six months I will be nothing."
"Haha, don't be pessimistic. Six months may seem like a short time, but it's a long time online. What changes might happen? Don't be too discouraged."
"Why am I so pessimistic? I wish I could jump out of this pit of fire. Whoever wants to do this shit will do it. I won't serve you anymore."
"We are all so familiar with each other, so don't say such things anymore."
"That's it, contact me again."
"Thanks"
"polite"
After hanging up the phone with his friend, Yu Qingdong scratched his oily scalp, picked up a pen and casually wrote "agree" on the document, threw it aside with a yawn, and picked up another copy.
At this time, the confidential secretary suddenly burst into the door and made a loud bang.
Just as Yu Qingdong was about to get angry, the confidential secretary had already shouted: "Yu, Mr. Yu, No. 0, No. 0 is online."
Yu Qingdong was stunned for a moment, and then he jumped up like an electric shock. With a bang, he was brought to the chair, knocking down the screen behind him and causing the valuable fish tank to shatter on the floor.
A few precious goldfish were flopping on the wet floor, breathing desperately with their mouths open, very much like Yu Qingdong now.
"Yes, sure"
"Confirmed repeatedly."
It was already half an hour after I rushed to the computer room, got the authorization, and got the 'line script'.
Thank God, Number Zero is always online, but the message I sent only got the sentence "Wait a moment, waiting for everyone to respond".
Waiting for someone?
Who are you waiting for?
Yu Qingdong's mind was in a state of confusion, and he didn't react until he heard the people around him saying: "We should wait for other operating agents."
Then there was a bitterness, a feeling of 'falling out of favor'.
This kind of feeling is like being the "only inheritor of divine grace" in the past, but now she has become one of the resentful women waiting in the harem, worrying about gains and losses, losing ground, and losing her standard.
Looking back at the "detached" words he said to his friends before, it is extremely ironic.
However, unless the mind is as calm as water and can truly achieve no desire or desire, who can remain rational and calm at such a time?
I believe those Americans who contacted Zero for the first time are ‘flattered’ at this time, right?
Is it really the same as the Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem? Gan!
Yu Qingdong held back his anxiety and uneasiness and waited for more than half an hour.
Seeing No. 0's invitation to join the group chat, he reacted for a moment before expressionlessly agreeing.
He entered a group chat initiated by No. 0, and one after another, the IDs with the prefixes of each operating agent joined one by one. What comforted him was that this was WeChat, not Facebook, and the language was in Chinese instead of English.
But at this moment, this is the only thing left to comfort yourself, right?
"Hello everyone, I am the person you have been looking for."
The group leader has banned the comment, so you can only watch what he says.
"How have you considered that plan? Who agrees and who opposes it?"
It's really direct.
The previous Zero Number was not like this.
How come we are at two extremes with the system?
After the ban ended, the chat page was empty for a while, and there was no conversation for several minutes.
No. 0 seemed to be impatient, so he called his name.
The first one I ordered was Bei Mi.
Is this a signal?
Yu Qingdong started to have random thoughts again.
"Sorry, Your Excellency, our Chinese experts are on their way as quickly as possible to avoid contextual errors in translation."
Zero accepted this delay and ordered other operating agents to use this reason to delay time.
Damn it!
Hua Guo couldn't use such excuses anymore. The first person to express his position turned around and turned to Yu Qingdong.
Yu Qingdong looked behind him blankly.
At some point, all the screens behind him were lit up. The big guys were watching the scene intently, and he was the puppet on the stage.
"In principle, we agree with the plan, but some details still need to be clarified."
"Very good, one vote in favor."
Number Zero did not answer the conversation and simply responded: "The others will be given another 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, who agrees and who disagrees must have a clear attitude."
These five minutes really feel like a year.
Five minutes later.
"agree!"
"agree!"
"agree!"
Brush the screen!
In this regard, No. 0 has only one simple evaluation: good.
Followed by a long sentence: "Since all have passed, all non-meritorious noble titles on the line will be abolished. You will handle your puppets by yourself. You will be given two days to deal with the aftermath. After two days, the system will issue an announcement and close all interference online.
Interfaces to specific transactions and processes.”
"Your interests will be fully guaranteed, and the leadership of Canaan will be in your hands. The premise is that it complies with the rules of the system and exercises your rights within the framework of the rules."
"That's it, see you in two days."
Is this the end!?
As Zero's profile picture dimmed, the operating agents left the chat room one by one. Yu Qingdong was completely silent. Looking behind him, all the screens were turned off, and he and several people behind him were born in the blink of an eye.
This kind of contact is worse than no contact at all.
No one told him what to do, and there was not even a response. Yu Qingdong left here with worries and returned to the office in a daze.
"Mr. Yu, I just got the news, what should I say in the past two days?"
"Just do whatever you have to do, why bother asking?"
"But……"
"No but"
"Okay, okay"
Two days, all excuses to shut down online, how can two days be enough?
As far as the online assets of the national server are concerned, even two months is not enough.
This is a disguised form of confiscation of the wealth of the national server online.
Too cruel.
Online, I thought it was an ordinary day, no different from the past.
The breaking news first came from the Millennium nobles, and the Earl's Palace began to auction major online assets.
For all players, the price is like rotten cabbage. As long as you pay them, they will be sold.
At first, no one took it seriously, just thinking it was another rumor of someone who was so full that he wanted to find trouble to spread it out. But the rumors became more and more true, and many people ran over with the attitude of giving it a try, and they all used cabbage.
Bought something good at a good price.
This was a big deal. All the players headed towards the Millican nobles, which quickly paralyzed several teleportation formations.
After that, the Oumeng national server also released similar news, and also published an auction list, which was really... I don’t know how to describe it.
When other national servers released similar news one after another, and seemed like they could no longer survive due to liquidation, even the dullest players realized that something was wrong.
At this time, a system announcement shocked everyone.
For the sake of war, for the great cause of the resistance, for the unrestricted development of players in the future, for... for... all non-meritorious nobles and nobles will be taken back by the system, and all game functions that have nothing to do with game content and narrative will be withdrawn.
Will close in two days.
In two days, there will be no public uniforms, no national uniforms, no Norman Grand Duke. We are the glorious and free resistance army. We will smash the old world and build a new world.
No more national uniforms?
No wonder they are all having money-losing sales, but why is there no movement in the Chinese national server?
"It's easy to understand. You see, those who are selling off are all from the West. Their national services don't have many public assets. We are different. We can't sell them even if we want to. The family business is different and its nature is different."
"Then, then, in two days..."
"Stop dreaming, even if it is confiscated by the system, it is none of our business."
"Why, instead of making the system cheaper, why not make us cheaper?"
"Hurry up and get it. Do you think if you don't sell it to us, it means you are gone? There are ways to recover the online assets. Just raising taxes can make back the losses. Selling it to a private person is nothing. That's not the case."
Is there a huge loss of property? Who can afford such a responsibility?"
"Then let's go to another server and leave quickly."
"Don't go. No one knew about it before, but now...you see."
"What the hell, only players can participate in the auction?"
"Hey, it's a feast of capital. Ordinary people should just smell it and don't think about good things."
As soon as the system announcement came out, the tearful sale suddenly stopped and was no longer open to ordinary players. However, the sale of online assets in major national servers was still a tsunami. Within two days, everything fell. Except for top props and equipment, all
Start breaking bones.
Prices have plummeted, but transactions have decreased. The reason is very simple. There is less money on the market, and all of it has been used by capital to participate in gluttonous feasts.
The ecology at the bottom of the game, especially the new tourists, has a harder time, but no matter how sad it is, there is nothing you can do about it. Money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat. Apart from scolding a few words, you can still do whatever you have to do.
At this point, the national retreat and the democratic advancement have finally shown their true colors. Looking back on the time when the national server was first established, I have to say that the darkest thing is still the system.
When I first had my pursuits offline, it was called generosity, and I was competing for territory online. The grand occasion at that time was just like yesterday, when the whole world was celebrating, and everyone was saying Canaan is good, Canaan is wonderful, Canaan is the future.
Canaan Canaan croaks...
Nowadays, if you don't need people, you just kick them away, and they still look so ugly. If the operating agents have some backbone, they will fight to the death, and you will beg for whoever you see.
Ordinary people can see this truth, but operating agents don’t know it.
I know, I just can't do it.
If the operating agents have no self, if they can reach consensus from a collective perspective, they will not let the twenty-odd operating agents be kicked off during the meeting and leave the situation in jeopardy.
No matter how great the interests are, they should be given up when it is time to give them up. However, the essence of human society on earth is power, struggle, and the law of the jungle.
Isn't this the vision of changing from an operator to a shareholder? It's no wonder that there is such a dog bone hanging in front of it.
The Guards City was filled with joy.
"Now that the spring water is coming, there is no more national uniform, and the future is bright."
"Yeah, maybe we can also have a count and a viscount that day, haha..."
"Jianguo?"
"Remember why we changed our name to the Guards?"
"Haha, then shouldn't we build a royal forest army and a royal guard?"
"Chun Shui, I support your ascending the throne and proclaiming yourself emperor."
"Wow, Jianguo? National War? It's so exciting."
"That's it, our goal is to build the country!"
"You have to do a good job in the total war plot this time, Chun Shui."
"Chun Shui can't do it alone, we all need to work together."
"Long live!"
Every time the system makes an unexpected move, the final beneficiaries are them, their group, and this class.
The middle and upper class of players are those who really value online rather than offline.
They are the backbone of the Magic Network, and the future depends on them. They are the biological sons of the system aunt. All actions are to loosen their ties and create a better game environment for them, so that they can serve as vanguards and lead hundreds of millions of people.
Players, develop a real ecology belonging to players and tourists.
Only an ecology that belongs to them can allow them to fully immerse themselves in it.
The purpose of the system is so simple, but it requires so much effort. The difficulties in troubleshooting are simply impossible to overcome in the eyes of ordinary people.
Everyone in the gang channel is thinking about the future and is full of joy. Go to hell the public server and the national server. From now on, they will all be one server, only system servers.
"By the way, where did Chun Shui go?"
"You've gone to a meeting in New Magic City."
"Tsk, tsk, can you participate in such a national event?"
"A lot of pigs, even the city lord has gone."
"Let us take over the assets of the national server?"
"No, but I can't tell for sure. What kind of status might they be given, like a contractor?"
"The system doesn't recognize it, does it?"
“It’s enough to identify them offline...should that be the case?”
"What if the spring water didn't work that day and Gangzhu was overthrown?"
"That's why it's hard to say. Let's take a look first and then talk."
At this time, Shao Bing had just walked into the banquet hall on the first floor of Earl Walter Xia's Mansion in New Magic City, and found that many acquaintances had already arrived, all dressed in formal attire, and the atmosphere was serious.
"Chun Shui, this way."
One night in the small building, I heard the helper Zhuzhu from the Fengyu gang whispering to him to come over, and there was a small circle of three or four people gathered together.
"I'm going to change the name of the gang. Please give me your ideas." Xiaolou said to Bangzhu after listening to the wind and rain all night.
Shao Bing vaguely understood what was going on and asked with a smile: "Okay, what's wrong?"
"It's too long and difficult to pronounce. Even the NPCs can't understand it. It's inconvenient in many cases."
When did the NPC’s feelings need to be considered even in such a matter?
"Is this necessary?"
The small building listened to the wind and rain all night and smiled and said nothing.
Haha, isn't it just a context? Let's pretend that no one knows. It's easy to keep it a secret.
