Dragon, choose cultural victory to make money

Chapter 288 Devil's Special Game
The reporter asked a question with a preconceived position.

When he asked "with ulterior motives", he had already assumed that the devil's purpose was not good.

A common tactic used when setting traps during interviews.

Obviously, not everyone welcomes this communion with the devil.

Drogo and the demons were prepared for this situation.

It was Miss Starling who spoke on behalf of the devil's side.

She is also the ambassador of this entire research project.

As the most famous and recognized devil in Twin Towers City, he looks relatively friendly. The looks of those devil scammers are such that even if they say nice things, the listeners will think they are threatening, so Starling is the best speaker.

She had received some training before this to prepare herself for the tough questions.

If you encounter a question you are not prepared for, you can use mental communication as a backup. The think tank led by Drogo is watching this communication channel.

"I, and all the demons, came to Felin for one and only one purpose, and it is a purpose that can be told to others."

Starling replied with a friendly smile.

"Work together with humans, dwarves, elves, orcs, gnomes, halflings and all other intelligent races for common development and a peaceful future."

She started by raising the profile very high, occupying the moral high ground and putting the reporter who asked the question in a position of destroying the world's racial unity.

"I know that the image of the devil in everyone's eyes has always been evil and cruel. There may be some misunderstandings here, perhaps because of the painful history that needs to be reflected upon. But now, we are here to break these misunderstandings, sir."

Starling introduced Asmodeus.

"It's the Grand Duke from Hell."

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience exclaimed.

This was the first time that everyone saw the living Devil Archduke. Asmodeus looked harmless, just like an ordinary uncle next door, and his clothes looked both luxurious and old-fashioned.

He took off his hat and saluted, his movements were a bit clumsy, his expression was very embarrassed and he looked very weak.

Of course, it's all acting.

The people present may not have much favorable impression of this silly-looking devil uncle, but at least they did not hate him.

"The Grand Duke came to this unfamiliar plane without any guards. He trusts everyone. He will not be in danger here."

Asmodeus did not bring any guarding force with him, he himself was the strongest guarding force in hell.

But these words did move many listeners. A great Duke actually did not bring any guards with him. That showed how sincere he was.

They also discussed in a low voice how high the title of the Grand Duke of Hell was, and whether it was much different from that of Felin.

However, no matter how they discussed it, everyone always believed that someone named Grand Duke could not be some minor noble.

Starling continued to speak: "The establishment of the Criminal Psychology Research Institute is also to reduce the crime rate in the city and surrounding areas. It aims to summarize a reliable theoretical system to benefit all of Felin. All the achievements made by the institute will be made public. Please supervise our achievements together."

This answer should not convince those corrupt politicians. Everyone can say nice things, but they don't believe in the ideal of world peace.

But most of the people present were young people, and they fall for this.

As soon as Starling finished speaking, there was applause and cheers from the audience.

And they do intend to produce some results. It is uncertain whether they can form a theoretical system, but they can still catch some scammers.

Nowadays, many people in big cities, especially the elderly, are troubled by various scams.

After the advent of mobile phones and the internet, the reach of scammers has increased significantly, becoming more common than petty theft.

These veteran scammers from hell may not be able to deal with perverted murderers, but they can definitely deal with their fellow scammers.

Do you understand what it means to hone and study the fraud techniques for decades?

These devils have nothing on their side when it comes to their colleagues who engage in mobile phone fraud but can't even speak the common language without an accent.

Ashamed to be with them!
Even the devils can speak a common language that is extremely fluent and sounds no different from the people whose ancestors have been in Roman for eight generations.

But on the public open day, these devils all spoke with thick accents, stuttered, and pretended to be very unskilled.

This was what Drogo had requested.

Having a heavy accent and speaking incoherently can effectively reduce aggressiveness and make the person you are talking to feel superior.

Does accent have a sense of superiority?

The answer is definitely yes.

Usually, the accent of a place with a good economic level will be labeled as "upper class". Similarly, the accent of a poor place will also be discriminated against.

Your accent is not good? That means your living conditions are not good, so you live worse than me, and you have a sense of superiority.

Hell is obviously a poor place.

As a result, the people participating in the public day became more and more relaxed as the activities progressed.

After asking a few relatively serious questions, the atmosphere became entertaining and the questions became entertaining.

Such as "Are Starling and Hannibal in love?", "Did anything interesting happen between Starling and Mr. Lauer on the set?"...

Completely gossipy.

People are much more interested in these issues than they were at the beginning.

The exact relationship between Starling and Hannibal has been a hot topic in the Shadow Forum recently.

There are all kinds of opinions, including those supporting the couple, the mentor, the prey, the toy, etc. Everyone sticks to their own opinion and they are arguing fiercely on the Internet.

To this end, Starling did not give an accurate answer because she didn't know either.

If we follow what Drogo said, just let them quarrel. There are a thousand different relationships between the male and female protagonists in the eyes of a thousand audiences.

Starling thought this made a lot of sense.

In fact, in the original novel of "The Silence of the Lambs", love did develop between Starling and Hannibal, but it was not shown so directly in the movie, leaving a lot of room for interpretation.

Drogo himself did not like the original novel's description of love, as he felt that it was too low-level.

Therefore, we will continue to use the design of the original movie and let people discuss it.

In addition to Starling being asked various strange questions, people also focused their attention on several other demons.

That's a living devil, I've never seen one before.

And they look too "devilish", unlike Miss Starling, who is hard to spot as a devil unless she admits it herself.

It was the first time in the lives of these old swindlers that they saw humans who were so unguarded against them.

He started asking all sorts of questions and then became more and more demanding.

"Can I touch your big horns?"

Then these devils were groped.

They are so annoyed that they are suffering from occupational diseases. It feels like it would be a shame not to cheat such defenseless people.

Asmodeus put the overall situation first and warned these demons considerately.

Whoever returns to his old ways will die.

Seeing that the public open day was unexpectedly successful, the demons and the people of the Twin Towers were having a great time, and they were so concerned about the relationship between Starling and Hannibal, and especially supported love, so Drogo couldn't help but come up with a new hot topic. How about a love story between demons and humans, using both novels and magic movies and dramas.

Soap operas, which are shot for a hundred or eighty episodes, are harvesting the market of those who are obsessed with love.

Maybe one day in the future, audiences will get fed up with adding emotional drama to any subject matter.

But now, love themes work well.

In fact, it is almost impossible for love to arise between demons and humans.

Unlike races like elves and dwarves, which are closer to humans, they have common aesthetics.

In the eyes of the devil, humans don’t even have horns, their bodies are slippery like fleshy worms, and they have reproductive isolation.

It is not ruled out that there is a hobby of liking meat worms. After all, the XP system is always free, but it is somewhat too niche.

There will be many follow-up activities on the public open day, such as weapons and equipment experience, crime scene restoration and so on.

However, Drogo and Asmodeus did not participate.

They came to another place.

The park of the new expo.

This year's expo has become more professional. Instead of activity areas spread all over the city, it is held in a park.

Each country or organization can build its own venue in a designated area, and those with insufficient funds can choose to use a public venue.

In a self-built venue, you can design it completely according to your own ideas. The content of the exhibition is no longer limited to commodities, you can also promote unique cultural features.

The organizers also plan to continue to expand the influence of the expo in the future, changing from holding it in the Twin Towers City to selecting a city on the mainland as the host city for each session.

Asmodeus is pushing for this opportunity for Hell.

Drogo had originally wanted to organize one for Waterdeep, but after careful consideration, he felt that his territory would not lack an opportunity for exposure in the future. Such activities usually lose money but gain publicity, so he gave up. It would be better to just use the space of others to advertise.

So, Drogo and Asmodeus have similar interests, and they set up a Nine Hells Pavilion of Baator at this year's expo.

According to Asmodeus' idea, the venue should be designed to be like the real Nine Hells of Baator, with a total of nine floors connected by the River Styx.

And it has to be big, it has to be big, it has to be the largest in the entire park.

Very good idea to make the coin balance rotate.

But Drogo didn't care. After all, it wasn't him who paid, but Asmodeus, who didn't have much wealth but pretended to be a rich man, who paid.

Drogo only rented part of the venue.

Unlike last time, when Drogo Corporation had a ton of products to release, this time Drogo didn’t have many projects to promote, only a few, but they were all “big items.”

In terms of games, we are preparing to release the Red Alert spin-off, Yuri's Revenge.

From a war between the devil and the human coalition, to a fight against the evil devil, Yuri.

Yes, Archdemon Yuri.

Given that the devil is now cooperating with humans, it is no longer appropriate for the devil to be the villain.

Let the devil take the blame.

Yuri is now set as an undercover demon lurking among the demons, provoking a war between the demons and humans in order to let the demons reap the benefits.

He also mastered an extremely evil technology, mind control!

Strictly speaking, "Yuri's Revenge" should be considered an expansion pack of Red Alert.

In the history of the development of Earth games, expansion packs are a concept that has gradually been eliminated and has become part of DLC (downloadable content).

Because early games were mainly sold in physical form, the expansion packs you bought were also physical discs that could be run independently.

Later, as the Internet became more and more developed, large expansion packs could be downloaded directly, and there was no difference between them and DLC.

Damn, the "DLC" back then could really be played without the main game!
In terms of industrial products, the most important commodity of Zhuoge Group at this expo is automobiles.

Benz's car will be launched on the highly anticipated platform of the Expo.

Handmade magic cars have always been a regular at the expo. Although this top-level luxury product with extremely high technical content does not have many customers, it has always been the top of the top.

According to tradition, those magic car workshops also hold car races at the fair.

Drogo's plan was to have Benz's car participate in the competition, using the most common mass-produced model.

Benz was not very confident about this. He believed that the performance of the mass-produced car was completely unable to beat the magic car that had been repeatedly tuned on the track.

Drogo's answer was "Just don't lose too badly. We didn't defeat the magic car by performance."

It's already assumed that cars can't win.

Benz was very unhappy because of this. He felt that if he designed a racing car specifically for himself, it should be able to compete with those expensive magic cars.

I can’t say you will definitely win, but at least you won’t suffer any loss.

In previous years, the vehicle promotion conference was held right after the race, and the cars that had just left the stadium would go directly on stage to advertise. It was simple, whoever was the winner would get the most orders.

The other workshops can only eat the leftovers that the winners can’t eat.

What if the car doesn’t perform well on the track and no one places an order?

But Drogo still refused. He told Benz to wait and he would experience the joy of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

In addition to games and cars, Drogo also brought a miniature model of Waterdeep, mainly to showcase the public transportation system.

I have no intention of selling this. If I sell it, other cities cannot be built. This is just to show how advanced Waterdeep is.

There is also a magic power supply system, which I really plan to sell.

The energy supply of the primary version is not high, but at least it can support traffic lights and street lights.

There is also a promotional video for Deep Water City, which is used to attract talent.

The slogan is "No matter who you are, in this magical land, as long as you work hard, you can live a better life."

Abbreviated as "Deep Water Dream".

In addition, it also brings a simplified version of a new concept game that can only be fully experienced in the Deep Water City scenic area. It is absolutely unique, immersive, and realistic, and players can participate in it themselves.

Real Doom demo.

Zhuo Ge believes that this will definitely be the most popular experience project at the expo.

The field trial levels have been set up, weapons and equipment have been prepared, everything is ready, only the actors are missing.

The actor who was beaten.

Drogo took Asmodeus for a stroll around the trial level.

"It's pretty good, but what is it used for?" Asmodeus asked puzzledly.

"Well, let's not talk about what it is for now. I heard that even if the devil is shattered in the main plane, it will not die, but will only be reborn in hell, right?"

"Yes."

"Well, in hell, are there any devils who don't mind being smashed multiple times a day? The reward is generous."
