There is only more than one day left before the candidates on the list for the ultimate trial are finally determined.
Players have all entered the final sprint stage.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, Li Hongyun and Chu Ge woke up on time in the dormitory.
The first thing the two of them had to do was in perfect agreement: they took their phones and checked the rankings!
Seeing that they were still on the list, they all let out a sigh of relief.
However, this relaxed mood did not last long, because they soon noticed that the ratings of several players ranked below them seemed to have changed.
The ratings of players on the entire list are slowly rising every day!
Li Hongyun couldn't help but lament: "It's too curly!
"As the first player to clear this dungeon, can't I just get a place for admission without taking the exam?"
Chu Ge is more tolerant, after all, he has already felt this kind of pressure once before: "It's okay, just get used to it. After all, the ultimate trial is 100% painful, there is no room for error, and the player who has the deepest understanding of the copy is chosen.
"To be honest, I really don't think it's that important whether you go to the final trial or not. After all, it's 100% painful and it's very stressful. It's better to wait and enjoy the results."
Li Hongyun rolled his eyes: "Then why are you so active every time! It's not just for the box office share after starring in the movie!"
Chu Ge said sternly: "How is that possible? I just want to play the role of the orderer and defend our precious history! As for the box office share, they are all external things."
Li Hongyun was too lazy to pay attention to him and got out of bed to have breakfast.
The box office share of the movie "The Affair Must Be Closed" has not yet been determined. After all, a movie has a relatively long process from release to share.
New copies of "Dark Sand" are opened so quickly, basically one copy every one or two weeks. If they really have to be paid equally, according to the normal movie process, a few months would be considered fast.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the official team of "Dark Sand" is so awesome that the movie's share will be paid at the speed of light, but no matter how fast it is, it will still take at least two or three months.
Although it is still early for the money to arrive, the current box office performance of movies can already roughly estimate the income of these players.
Up to now, "The Final Word" has been in theaters for more than a week, and the box office in its first week has successfully exceeded 100 million.
If you look purely at the box office rankings, breaking 100 million in the first week is not a very impressive result. After all, the box office of those super hit movies in the first week is in billions, and some big productions, in advance,
A movie with a lot of publicity, even if the quality is poor and the follow-up is weak, is likely to make a box office of 100 to 200 million in the first week.
But you must know that the movie "The Final Word Must Be Closed" is very different from conventional movies.
First, its ticket prices are extremely cheap, with theaters setting the lowest prices and only charging 1 yuan online.
Although "small profits but quick turnover" can indeed be regarded as a strategy to increase income, compared to those movies whose movie tickets are very expensive, it does still have some disadvantages at the box office.
Second, it did not receive much publicity in advance. It became popular only because of the popularity of the game "Dark Sand" and word of mouth from the audience, so it has great stamina.
Third, it costs nothing!
Therefore, according to what was written in the previous announcement, after deducting offline costs, all the proceeds will be returned to the players. If the net income is 40% of the box office, there will be nearly 40 million in revenue in the first week.
As long as players participate in the "Order Expedition", they can share 60%. In other words, on average, each player can have thousands or tens of thousands of dollars!
This is just one week's income.
The income of top players is even more impressive.
According to regulations, players who participated in the ultimate trial will be divided into 20%, and players who participated in the dungeon guide and had a clear effect will also be divided into 20%. Those who participated in both like Chu Ge can get about 5%, which is three million!
Have you ever seen a game that can earn a weekly salary of three million?
And no one will have too much hatred towards these players, the reason is very simple, they are based on their true abilities!
The movie itself is very exciting, and the fee is very cheap. The reason why so much money can be squeezed out to give back to the players is purely because of the generosity of the officials and the innovation of shooting techniques, which have reduced the production cost of the movie to a very low level.
The performance of the players is also very good, which is fundamentally different from those little fresh meat whose virtue is not matched.
In short, this money is earned steadily and clearly!
No wonder the competition is so fierce this time. Players are all vying to be on the list, participate in the ultimate trial, become famous and make money. Who can resist this temptation?
What's more, the profits of these top players are not all in the game. They have also begun to have more and more fans in reality, and they can be monetized if they want.
It's just that the current top players are still relatively low-key, and their main focus is still on the strategy copy.
This principle is actually a bit like professional players in some e-sports games.
Although popular professional players also have extremely high visibility and prestige, they generally focus on playing well in games and are not particularly anxious to cash in on their popularity. Because once the focus shifts, although they can gain popularity in the short term,
In the fiercer competition, you will inevitably be left behind by others, and eventually your popularity will quickly disappear.
The same is true for the game "Dark Sand".
It is precisely because the copies of this game are released very quickly, with a large new copy and a large amount of new content being updated in less than a month, and a large number of new places are opened for each update, so the competition pressure is also very high.
You may be eliminated if you are not careful.
Therefore, you still have to focus on clearing the dungeon first and keep yourself in the first echelon, otherwise you will soon be lost to everyone.
Even players who have already made a name for themselves are working so hard, and those like Li Hongyun who have not yet been to the final trial naturally dare not slack off at this time.
In the past three days, he first played the advanced difficulty level of the trial copy of Assassin's Identity, upgraded his talents and skills, and then continued to improve his rating in the copy of "The Marquis Is Not My Will".
Since many players have played the advanced difficulty of the trial dungeon in advance, there are already a lot of strategy posts online.
For Li Hongyun, this can be regarded as a kind of "off-peak travel".
The difficulty of the trial dungeons for these identities has indeed increased.
Among them, the soldier dungeon and the ranger dungeon mainly improve the enemy's combat power. Players must have more exquisite combat skills to pass the level;
The Assassin dungeon increases the vigilance of Emperor Yan Ling and the officials. Players' subtle expressions are easier to capture, and the officials will spontaneously protect Emperor Yan Ling, making the assassination more difficult;
The scribe copy improves the resourcefulness of the three villains. Based on the players' rebuttal, they will further expand and deepen their own set of fallacies, and even cite some historical examples to prove their views.
Players must also disassemble these contents in order to successfully pass the level.
For Li Hongyun, the difficulty of the Assassin dungeon has increased, and his perception is not strong.
The reason is very simple. His way of clearing levels is completely different from other assassin players...
Although Emperor Yan Ling and the officials were more vigilant, Li Hongyun could still throw a dagger and kill Emperor Yan Ling as soon as he went to the palace. Even if he missed once, he would always succeed as long as he tried a few more times.
Li Hongyun felt a little embarrassed at first. He felt like he was stuck in some kind of bug and cleared the level in a way that the official did not expect.
But then I thought about it, so what?
"Dark Sand" has no intention of teaching players to play the game. No matter what copy it is, as long as the player can pass the level in a logical and self-consistent way, then the official approval will be given.
Therefore, Li Hongyun felt that his "remote lucky assassin" gameplay was very exciting, and he was ready to continue to study it.
Of course, after clearing the higher difficulty of the four trial dungeons, the players also upgraded their exclusive skills as they wished.
[The exclusive talent of a soldier's identity "The Ambition to Trap": The more desperate the situation, the more powerful the combat effectiveness will be. (Upgrade effect: When in the state of "The Will to Trap", the ability to resist blows will be improved, and the resistance to pain will be improved.

[Assassin's exclusive talent "Plain Wrath": After careful preparation and finding the right moment, you can deliver an extremely fatal blow. During the attack, you can ignore all pain and interference until the attack ends. (Upgrade effect

[The exclusive talent of the Ranger identity "Xia Bu Liu Xing": Your movement skills are flexible, even when there are many enemies, you have a better chance of breaking into a tight siege, or waiting for an opportunity to escape. (Upgrade effect: When you may be trapped in a tight siege, you can first
