Zhang Miao was quite ashamed when she called her home because the 400,000 she had promised was gone.
"Mom, it's me. I'll send you the money tonight... Well, um, maybe it's not that much. Something happened to me... 20,000, maybe. You and my dad will stop farming in the future.
He's so old...ah, who? Second uncle? He..."
"Haha, Miaomiao, it's me, your second uncle. Do you remember that I hugged you when you were a child... Good boy, you quietly released the Star of David for us... Why, you are Canaan
A first-beta test player, right... Well, well, that's fine, I'll talk to you about it today..."
"Miaomiao, how did you talk to your second uncle? He is also kind-hearted. Didn't that boss say that you were a classmate in middle school? If you can help me, please help him. He also paid so much money..."
"Ah, he's gone. Miaomiao, is that game of yours reliable? People keep coming to your house to inquire about it these days. There was even a thief last night... Don't worry, there's nothing to lose at home... I
I'm telling you, ignore your second uncle
, he has no profit and can’t afford to be early, he hasn’t moved around in many years... Well, I’m relieved that you are doing well, play the game... ah, no, make money well, your dad and I are still in good health, it’s you
Sister, your nephew is so sad, ugh!"
"Ah, by the way, have you ever been friends with the daughter of Lao Xie's family next door before? What, if that's not the case, then how can they say that you have been friends before... His mother came to me yesterday and told me a lot,
She is trying to set you up with her daughter in a roundabout way... What? She didn't like you before? Her daughter is so mean..."
The phone call lasted for more than an hour, and Zhang Miao was still a little stunned when it ended.
It felt like the world had suddenly turned upside down. Relatives who had been around for many years, parents who had always opposed his improper career, and people he had a crush on... all changed their attitudes.
It seems that he is no longer himself and has become a high-quality stock that everyone is optimistic about, and everyone wants to take shortcuts to see if they can get any benefits from him.
"Xiao Er, Xiao Er?"
"Ah, here it comes"
"Hurry up, I'm waiting for you"
The "Player Apartment" has become a star building in the neighborhood. So far, 46 players have stayed, all concentrated in the lobby on the 7th floor.
Canaan Gamers Networking Party.
Looking at the hanging banners and the smiling faces of the properties who walked in and out one after another, Zhang Miao straightened her spine slightly, and her chest was propped up by something called "pride".
Everyone took advantage of their free time before game time to meet offline and get to know each other.
It was originally a very simple matter, but the property management company was even more enthusiastic than they were when they found out. Not only did they provide the venue for free, they also attracted a large number of sponsors, arranged the party venue, and invited well-known local business representatives to celebrate together.
.
What's the matter with them?
The players didn't pay attention to these so-called entrepreneurs who came together in a hurry. Anyway, with the ban in place, no one dared to commit crimes. They just wanted to find some benefits from them and see if there were any opportunities.
At this point, Zhang Miao had just sat down and before she could chat with the players on the side, a beautiful woman wearing professional attire and a very capable temperament came over.
The plain white hand handed over a business card, with a smiling face, greetings and politeness, and then explained the purpose of the visit.
"What, spokesperson?"
"Yes, we are a sporting goods company specializing in export trade. We would like to ask Mr. Zhang to be our image and brand spokesperson..."
What's wrong with this world?
Zhang Miao touched her face.
"There is no need for Mr. Zhang to do anything offline. You just need to interact with us in Canaan Games. We will be responsible for the packaging. It would be even better if you could agree to transfer the naming rights of the game ID to us..."
The players next to me were also dumbfounded. Is there such an operation?
"That's all, no more?" Zhang Miao asked
"Uh...if that's your original intention, of course there is a deeper way to cooperate..."
“But the state explicitly prohibits it.”
"We are not recruiting you, we are just cooperating with you to open up your business value and achieve win-win cooperation."
"...let me think about it"
"Okay... By the way, the amount of the endorsement contract is one million a year. We are very sincere. Please consider it seriously."
Seeing the beauty's voluptuous waist twisting and walking away, Zhang Miao came to his senses. He just lost 400,000, and now he has another 1 million, but he can't do anything about it at all.
"Damn, why is no one looking for me!?"
The player next to me said angrily.
"Yes, why not?"
The bald middle-aged man with a general belly came over, each of them gave a business card, sat down with a big smile, and said familiarly: "... Our company is engaged in information collection. If you two want to find a more...
The flexible monetization method is perfect for our company's business... To put it simply, the two of them provide us with in-game information, such as videos, screenshots, etc. exclusively in exchange for remuneration. This method is more valuable than any endorsement.
It’s flexible and more free for both of you..."
"No endorsement?" This player still couldn't forget the beauty just now.
"As for endorsement, Mr. Zhang can do it. Mr. Lin, just..."
"What's wrong with me!?", the player was furious.
"That's it, Zhang Xinsheng's game ID, characters, roles in Canaan... uh, acquisition, have already gained a certain degree of popularity. He was the first to break the news about the Canaan game, both at home and abroad.
There is a certain audience base..."
"Damn it, so there's a celebrity sitting next to me?" the player said in a weird voice.
Zhang Miao felt very embarrassed and touched her nose, stood up and left.
The sorority has changed. There are more miscellaneous people than players. He finally understands why the property company is so enthusiastic.
He never thought that he had any commercial value, but after careful consideration, he found that it was really the case.
Canaan's game videos and pictures are highly disseminated, killing people at home and abroad. Isn't the so-called commercial value just the eyeball economy or topicality? These players already have it, so how can they have no commercial value?
After coming back from the sorority party, Hu Xinmin and Brother Ruoran received a lot of "business invitations". When they learned that Zhang Miao had an endorsement contract waiting to be signed, they were all envious. One million was available for them. What happened a few days ago?
400,000 is like a dream.
"Take it," Hu Xinmin advised him. "Consult a lawyer. I think you can become an Internet celebrity. Isn't that what you did before?"
"Then... take it!?" Zhang Miao picked up the gaming helmet and said uncertainly.
"I feel like I can still negotiate the price. You'd better find an agency. By the way, I also have an agent's film here. You can contact him and ask."
"I said you two are okay?"
The five of them agreed to go online together. Five chairs were placed in Zhang Miao's living room. Brother Ruoran shouted impatiently after listening to the two talking endlessly.
"He's jealous"
Before putting on the helmet, Hu Xinmin whispered to Zhang Miao.
Zhang Miao snickered, put on the helmet happily, and restarted his second life.
