Li Ming's accumulated luck exploded again. With his first swing of the ore hoe, he successfully obtained a piece of blue crystal ore, and his proficiency was also successfully increased by 2 points.
Now he finally understands the standard for improving mining proficiency. Only within the scope of mining, if you collect the highest quality ore, you will gain 1 proficiency point every time you succeed. A lucky critical hit will increase 2 proficiency points.
For example, Li Ming is now an intermediate mining skill and can collect ordinary ore veins and bronze ore veins. However, if he collects ordinary ore, he must succeed several times to gain 1 point of proficiency. However, if he collects bronze ore veins, he can increase his proficiency as long as he succeeds.
.
After understanding the rules, he quickly picked up the ore and started busy with Fan Hua...
Both of them understand that today is the first day of the game's server launch. As professional players, if they want to make money as soon as possible, they must improve their mining skills as much as possible.
As the level of mining skills increases, it means that they can obtain more ores and start to create more props.
The studio's task arrangement will be officially released tomorrow. Whether they can complete the task will affect how much salary they can get next month...
The tinkling sound of knocking continued to sound. While mining, Fan Hua received a message from a colleague in the studio, asking where the two of them were now.
Of course, Fan Hua could not bring Li Ming to join the large army, so he made some casual remarks, saying that he would not drop the mining level and would not move with the large army for the time being.
The miners in the studio did not force it, so they told the two not to forget about mining and ended the contact.
"Huazi, why have you never signed a formal employment contract with any studio?" Li Ming asked curiously.
"I don't want to be bound by a contract. These contracts last for one or two years. I'm so young and I still have to start my own business." Fan Hua replied with a smile.
"You want to start a business?" Li Ming widened his eyes in confusion.
"Yes, I have been in the gaming industry for two or three years, and I know a lot of studio bosses, big and small. They were not ordinary players at first, but they slowly started to make money on their own, and the scale gradually grew. I
Why not?" Fan Hua said unconvinced.
"Since you had this plan, why didn't you do it earlier?" Li Ming asked.
"It's easy to say, but difficult to do. Now there are many studios in the game industry, and the business dealings of major guilds have been distributed. If I want to build a new studio, I must have a good grasp of customers, otherwise I will starve to death.
"As I said earlier, now that the studios have grown in size, if you want to set up a new studio, you have to invest a lot in the early stage, and I can't afford it now." Fan Hua said helplessly.
"What kind of customers and how much investment are needed to ensure the new studio survives smoothly?" Li Ming asked.
"Of course, the bigger the customer, the better, and a fixed supply contract is required to ensure the long-term development of the studio. But if you want to take on long-term orders from large customers, the studio needs a professional team of at least five people.
"Fan Hua replied.
"It's so complicated... Then when you talk about big customers, do you mean those large guilds?" Li Ming asked.
"Yes, these large guilds are the regular bread and butter of the studio. Only with their existence can we ensure safer operation of the studio. Taking orders from large guilds can ensure the daily expenses of the studio, and then the studio can
Only by doing business for ordinary players can you accumulate funds and strength faster." Fan Hua explained.
"That's it..." Li Ming basically understood the operation of the studio from his simple introduction.
"Now the market has been fixed. Each big guild has signed supply and demand contracts with several or even a dozen studios. If a new studio wants to get involved, it can only do so unless the relationship is strong enough or it has the resources that the big guild urgently needs.
Okay, I don't have any chance now." Fan Hua sighed.
"Don't come in. Let's take our time. Let's not talk about the studio. Just tell me how to complete the studio tasks and how to calculate the salary." Li Ming asked with a smile. This was the issue he was most concerned about.
"Okay, what we are working with now is Dark Ghost Studio, which can be considered a medium-sized studio. We both signed a one-year temporary contract, with a base salary of only 1,000, and a maximum of 3 months of base salary. If the first 3 months
If you still can't complete the monthly tasks, your basic salary will be automatically canceled in the fourth month. This is a very important point, and Brother Ming must remember it." Fan Hua said.
"Oh, there are still such rules, but what about their regular employees?" Li Ming asked.
"Formal employees are of course different. They have to follow the management of the studio and do whatever is arranged. Although they also have monthly tasks, if they still can't complete them according to the arrangements of the studio, they can still get more than 2,000.
Basic salary." Fan Hua explained.
"So good, then if you have been a free agent, wouldn't you be far worse than a regular employee?" Li Ming asked in surprise.
"It's hard to say for sure. Although the basic salary of regular employees is high and guaranteed, Freelancer is not bad either. As long as I can complete the studio tasks every month, my commission will be much greater than that of regular employees. This is called getting money based on your ability.
, I never pay attention to basic salary or anything like that." Fan Hua said confidently.
"Then what if you can complete the task and the studio increases the task volume?" Li Ming asked worriedly.
"These contracts have been set long ago and cannot be changed casually. As long as the tasks are completed, free agents like me can get 35% of the commission, but regular employees only have 15%." Fan Hua said with a smile.
"Let me go, even if the commission is high, how much can you sell for some ore if you hand over some ores, and the commission of 35% is not much?" Li Ming said doubtfully.
"You don't understand this. Ore collection is just basic work. If you want to make money, who sells the ore? The main thing is to use the ore to make equipment and submit it to the studio to complete the task, or to clear the dungeon and block the BOSS. As long as you complete the task, you can get a few more
It's a top quality piece, enough to last for a month." Fan Hua explained with a smile.
"I understand, you need to take me to get familiar with it in the future." Li Ming nodded.
"Brother Ming has this necklace, so it shouldn't be a problem to complete the mission in the future." Fan Hua said with a smile.
The two were talking, but the clanging sound of tapping never stopped. After upgrading to the intermediate mining operation, the collection efficiency increased significantly. The work that originally took every 10 seconds now only takes about 6 seconds.
Although the success rate is still so terrible, the efficiency has gone up, and the number of successes has also begun to increase...
Coupled with the fact that Li Ming's lucky critical hits appear from time to time, there are more and more ore piles in his warehouse, and his skill proficiency is also rising significantly.
With the help of Clover Ring, his current proficiency rate is almost three times that of Fan Hua. As more than an hour of collecting time has passed, his intermediate mining proficiency has quickly increased to 289/500!
As for Fan Hua, it is currently only a pitiful 87/500!
The time now has reached 19:40. Players in the spirit world only have 8 hours of online time every day. Excluding the time spent offline for dinner, Fan Hua only has more than an hour left before he has to leave the game.
But Li Ming's online time is still more than 3 hours...
