Tokyo Reborn: Dark Superstar

Chapter 103 Eating the Empire’s Corpse

After the filming of the "PLANET" MV was completed, Takakura Bunta Studio officially signed a contract with Hirosue Ryoko.

Along with this signing contract, Hirosue Ryoko also carried a charity donation IOU of 3000 million yen...

…………

After Takakura Bunta finished shooting the new song MV, Mizuno Doyue brought an exaggerated news.

The sales of the Goblin Doll series are extremely hot.

The hunting house decided to completely abandon the mulberry industry and invest in doll sales.

Coupled with the popularity of the Sailor Moon series, the factory has already scheduled the production to April next year.

Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd. urgently ordered 12 production lines to start the second phase of construction of the Yokohama factory to expand the production capacity of Goblin dolls...

…………

鉸鎏·元 Universe Project has also begun the iteration of the 1997 version...

This version is "Beast Continent: Seven Kingdoms Series".

This is also a special doll for the other world like the Goblin doll. It is set in a continent with seven countries.

Without exception, every country is composed of humanoid races with good features as the main force, including knights, elves, witches, queens, halflings...

Seven countries formed the "Seven Shields Alliance" and established a "church" that believed in the goddess.

…………

To put it bluntly, it is a country of "appearanceism". Ugly aliens are heretics and should be excluded.

But the aliens cannot just accept it, so they must resist...

This triggered a war between the Goblins and the Seven Kingdoms...

…………

The trigger for "Beast Continent: Seven Kingdoms Series" is mainly to solve the current Yuliu Yuanverse project.

There are too many male players, female players are extremely rare, and the ratio of male to female players is unbalanced...

Currently, in the entire Yuliu Yuanverse project, the ratio of male players to female players is 480:1, and the defeat settlement completion rate is only 11.3%...

That is to say, 90% of female players will directly exit the illusion space after being defeated and refuse to carry out the punishment for defeat.

After the hunting house began to replace the fruit industry with dolls, the number of orders increased sharply...

The number of Goblin dolls in the other world is still increasing rapidly.

In this case, even if a group of 500 underground idols were signed, it would still be a drop in the bucket.

....................................

Faced with this situation, the entire Yuliu Yuanverse project is going to be strangled to death.

The entire Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. was like an ant on a hot pot, starting to look for a way to save the nation.

On the one hand, Mizuno Tangyue is ordering equipment, expanding production scale, and ensuring order supply.

On the other side is Goro traveling cross-country in search of new productivity.

…………

In February 1997, Yuliu Yuanshi Project was officially renamed Yuanshi Project.

Project investment is made directly by Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.

And the 艸鎏 community was established as a forum for senior players and a platform for offline meetings.

…………

After a trip to Europe for trade, Goro proposed at the meeting that high-quality resources from Eastern Europe, Ukraine, and Russia could be used to develop the Metaverse Plan.

Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd., after holding several working meetings on the metaverse project.

Officially pinning our hopes on the north.

In the 20s, the two-power structure collapsed and the Northern Empire self-destructed.

First, the three Baltic countries declared independence.

Then the leaders of Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine signed the "Commonwealth of Independent States Agreement" and announced the formation of the "Commonwealth of Independent States."

Then, the entire empire was divided into 15 countries.

…………

Goro lit a cigarette and said: "The whole world is eating the corpse of the Northern Empire..."

Mizuno Tangyue looked at the list of countries on the plan and said:

"Ukraine, Russia, Poland, Romania, Czech Republic, Bulgaria..."

"As far as I know, the culture, religion, and social traditions of these countries have always been relatively conservative. NHK once filmed a documentary about the member states of the Northern Empire, which is seriously illegal..."

"Why not consider Germany and the Netherlands? These two countries are legal."

Wulang replied: "The conservative culture you are talking about is from the Northern Empire period..."

"Moreover, Western European countries are too expensive, so locals are going to Eastern Europe."

"I contacted the local courier and the price quoted per working day was US$480 in Germany or US$700 in East Germany. The price in the Netherlands was US$."

Takakura Bunta opened a can of Asahi beer, listened to Goro's description, and calculated the exchange rate. At this price, he could go to Ginza to spend it. "Just letting them control the dolls and play magic games, it actually costs 700 US dollars. It's a vegetarian price and disrupts the market order..."

"The workers in Germany and the Netherlands should just give up."

Takakura Bunta made a decision, took a sip of beer, and then asked: "A few hundred dollars for the countries you recommended?"

Goro put down the cigarette in his hand and raised a finger.

“$100 per work day?!”

Mizuno Tangyue said in surprise: "Then quickly sign a contract with them... It's much cheaper than our country's underground idols..."

Goro said: "It's not 100 US dollars, it's 1 US dollar."

Takakura Bunta and Mizuno Doyue: "..."

…………

Wulang saw the silence in the meeting place. It was obvious that this information had exceeded everyone's common understanding of superpowers.

He explained: "There is shock therapy going on there, with a serious food crisis, a breakdown of order, beggars, criminals and charity poultry everywhere, everything is messed up..."

“On Khreshchatyk Street in Kiev, you can complete a business in the public restroom on the west side of the memorial statue for 1 dollar.”

"Of course, I still consider quality issues."

"Actually, I prefer girls from my own country. Eastern Europeans are too tall. They care about the top but not the bottom. They care about the head but not the tail..."

Takakura Bunta interrupted and said: "Let me talk about the key points...labor costs...daily wage prices..."

Wulang took a drag on his cigarette and said, "I'll raise the price to $20."

"Signed contracts with the Odessa State Opera and Ballet Theatre, Ukrainian National Symphony Orchestra, Kiev Bolshoi Ballet, Ukrainian National Opera..."

"The Bolshoi Ballet is a little more expensive, $35."

"Principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet, 1.85 meters tall, Master of Arts from St. Petersburg State University."

"Won the Imperial Medal of Honor, the Russian Golden Mask Art Award, the Paris International Ballet World Competition, the Moscow People's Artist Medal, the Pushkin Medal..."

Seeing him stacking buffs, Bunta Takakura put down the beer in his hand and interrupted again: "Just tell me how much it is..."

Wulang puffed out his cigarette and said: "70 US dollars, this is the highest price among this batch of signings."

Repin Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, formerly the Royal Academy of Fine Arts of Russia.

Now affiliated with the Russian Academy of Art, it is as famous as the Florence Academy of Fine Arts, the Paris Academy of Fine Arts, and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts. It is one of the four world-famous art academies.

This is the highest institution of art education in the world and has trained many world-renowned artists.

Full of honors like this, the world's top ballet artist, the pride of the entire country, only costs $70.

The Dutch worker's quote is $700, plus tips.

A change of nationality makes the difference tenfold.

It can only be said that a phoenix on the ground is not as good as a chicken.

....................................

This was a huge demographic dividend from the disintegration of the empire.

According to the historical line of the original plane, Ukraine relied on this wave of demographic dividend to become the famous "European Purple Bow".

The average salary for each working day of the contract is 48 US dollars, and it is required to complete 100% of the defeat settlement penalty of controlling the doll.

After testing the first wave, 3000 Eastern European players joined the metaverse and the feedback was excellent.

Seize the opportunity and become bigger and stronger.

Takakura Bunta and Goro went to Eastern Europe.

Waving the advance check for purchasing goblins from the fishing hut, he recruited 30,000 workers to join the metaverse project.

…………

Among them, the principal dancer of the Bolshoi Ballet.

After the audition, Takakura Bunta gave her the most important doll role in the Seven Kingdoms series.

The high elf "Celestine Luculus" known as the reincarnation of the goddess

The high elves are considered to be the reincarnation of the goddess commonly believed by the people of Ios and the saints of the elven empire.

Admired, respected and loved by all the people of the "Seven Shields Alliance",

But on the other hand, the monsters hated her.

…………

When Bunta Takakura was auditioning.

He chose a Cyclops character, fought with the high elf in the illusion space, and completed the defeat settlement penalty.

"Then I am...then I am...the last saint of the Elf Kingdom...how could I surrender to such a dirty existence like you..."

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah..."

"It's a long drive..."
