Chapter 408 Gold Medal Producer

"Are there other project teams here? No, that's not right. For small games, they should be independent game producers."

Malu snapped his fingers and said, "It's good to be an independent producer. We generate electricity for love and spread happiness to the world."

"What are you thinking about? His game can kill people." Pigeon said seriously.

"Ah, the squid game?"

"more or less."

"Brother Pigeon, have you also watched Squidward?" Malu asked curiously, "Which character do you like in it? Do you know that the second season is about to be online?"

Bai Ge glanced at him and did not answer these questions. "Anyway, if you see him, remember to notify me immediately. He is very dangerous."

"You didn't even tell me his name or appearance, how should I know who you want to catch?"

"He calls himself a gold medal producer, but up to now, no one has seen his true face."

"Um... only one name?"

"Put your hand out."

After the millipede did as he was told, the white dove turned around, plucked a feather from under its wing, and placed it in his palm.

"If you meet that guy, burn this feather, and then..."

"And then you'll be there to arrest him."

"Then make sure you win the game and don't die." said the pigeon.

"what?"

"Forget it. The game location he chooses every time is not hidden, but there are special means to block all contact between the players and the outside world. Apart from my feathers, there is no other way to notify people outside.

"But it takes time for me to locate the specific place." said the pigeon.

"How long?"

"It's hard to say. If it's fast, it may take more than ten minutes, but if it's slow, it may take half a day."

"I'm not saying anything bad about you, but Brother Ge, why are you acting like the cop in Hong Kong movies? You have to show up at the end of the film."

"........."

"Anyway, you better be careful," said the pigeon. "If you can help me catch the gold medal producer, I'll owe you a favor."

"Can your favor be cashed in?"

"No, but from now on, if you do something that crosses the line, I can pretend I didn't see it as long as it's not too outrageous."

"Wow, is this even possible?"

"To borrow your words, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes." Pigeon said, "I am not so unkind."

"Okay, I'll help you keep an eye on that gold medal producer if he comes to dine in my restaurant."

Seeing that Millipede agreed, the pigeon left in a hurry, saying that he had to go and notify other visitors from other dimensions.

Malu strolled around the community for a while, then went up to the second floor, borrowed Zhenye's PS5 and climbed up to Chiling, intending to check out the current operation status of the game. He first looked at the number of online users and found that there were 419 people.

After a week of joint promotion, Coconut Milk Jelly gave away nearly 1700 game discs, of which Boss Hu alone took away 50, plus the 300 given away by Baldy on the first day.

There are exactly 2000 cards, and according to statistics from the operation center, the retention rate is about %.

This extremely impressive number surprised Baldy and others.

You should know that for an ordinary mobile game, if the retention rate in the first week can exceed 10%, it can be considered excellent.

What's more, Chi Ling has many debuffs on his head.

- A CD-ROM is required to play; combat difficulty is higher than that of Souls-like games; resources are extremely scarce; the vast map is paired with a slow movement speed; and there are a lot of small settings that seem to be based on reality, but in fact they disgust players all the time.

But even so, nearly 40% of the players still stayed. In addition to the huge temptation brought by the atonement cake, there are naturally some other reasons.

Some of these were what Malu could think of at the beginning, but some were beyond his expectations.

For example, after Boss Hu entered the game, he not only brought a number of employees to play together and help him to swipe coupons, but also brought his shrewd mind, which is unique to a businessman.

Just when I was working so hard and feeling smug about selling a broken backpack for 6000, Boss Hu found a little brother and handed him the backpack, and then asked him to continue picking up black mud in the mire.

Before there were backpacks, players could only pick up three or four pieces of black mud at a time, and there was no place to put them, so they had to go to the edge of the mud pit.

But with a backpack, you can pick up ten pieces of black mud at a time and then slowly go ashore. Your efficiency is twice as fast as before, and the time it takes to fill your backpack is greatly shortened.

That’s not all. After entering the game, Boss Hu immediately sent all his men to pick up the black mud. With the combined efforts of dozens of people, it only took an hour and a half to pick up the second backpack. With one more backpack, the efficiency was further improved.

The time it took to produce the third backpack was shortened again. After a group of people worked hard for a while, the production time of a backpack was compressed to half an hour.

Boss Hu had more and more backpacks in his hands. After three days, he had 40 backpacks.

Just when I was stunned by the excitement, Boss Hu made another decision and put the backpack he had exchanged for rent out.

If other players want to use the backpack, they can rent it by the hour and pay the rent with pie coupons. If they don't have pie coupons, they can use labor.

Simply put, if you rent a backpack for an hour, you have to pick up black mud in the mud for 20 minutes.

Regardless of whether the rent is fair or not, it at least gives players the possibility to use backpacks in the early stages.

Even if you have made up your mind to own your own backpack, you can rent one first and then go to the mud pit to pick up black mud. In this way, even if you have to spend a quarter of your time working for Boss Hu, the efficiency is increased by 3 times, so this deal is still a sure profit.

In addition, for those players who are not interested in picking up black mud and just want to fight monsters, Boss Hu will also suggest that they form a team.

In fact, these days new players have also discovered that the levels of monsters around this novice village are a bit ridiculously high and are simply not something that one person can deal with. Some people left in anger, while the remaining players have already started to form teams.

There was no need for Boss Hu to suggest this. What Boss Hu actually suggested was that a team of people could rent a backpack together.

Yes, no one stipulates that a person must have a backpack.

Especially now that everyone does not have high-quality bones and their combat effectiveness is still relatively poor, going out to kill monsters is like going through a difficult dungeon. It often takes half a day to move around and cooperate with each other to kill them. There is no need to have so many backpacks.

One for each team is enough to meet daily needs, and in this way, everyone only needs to go to the mud pit to pick up black mud for 5 minutes before each battle to have a backpack. This preparation time is acceptable to everyone.
