Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 379 Offline Hack

Cheng Yi printed out the information he had gathered and flew back to Jingzhou City.

During the holiday, he had to finalize all the details of the school beauty and handsome guy competition.

In universities, campus beauties and campus hunks are always the most popular topics.

What fueled the buzz surrounding this topic was the infamous "simp economy" of later generations.

You can doubt the goddess's charm, but you can't doubt the spending power of a simp.

They would give anything for their goddess.

At Handong University, although Cheng Yi and Yan Wanxin don't get along, it has to be admitted that Yan Wanxin's sycophant army is still extremely large.

If Yan Wanxin participates in the competition, her sycophants will vote for her without hesitation, so that the whole country can see how good their judgment is.

Regional differences, university honors, and the added element of gossip make it a perfect topic for discussion.

The popularity of this competition is definitely going to be high.

Cheng Yi quickly gathered the details of the competition and then convened all the mid-level core members of the school's intranet company.

Currently, the company has 91 full-time employees and 2372 honorary employees. The honorary employees are the heads and deputy heads of the external relations departments of 1225 universities. Although the honorary employees do not receive a salary, they make a lot of money from the on-the-ground promotion commissions of the company. They are so enthusiastic that they are even more so than the full-time employees.

To coincide with this event, Momo's chat software has also undergone a major update, increasing the maximum number of people in a group chat to 500.

A group chat limit of 500 people is a huge test for the server. Keep in mind that chat rooms on various information portals only have a limit of 200 people.

To reduce server load, an invitation code is required to open a 500-person group.

With the coordination of Cheng Yi and Chen Yafang, the external relations departments of various universities have established large working groups of 500 people each.

The role of these external relations departments is to promote activities and boost the morale of the school; their main function is to create a positive atmosphere.

Although this event was led by Xiaonei.com Technology, it can be considered Momo Group's first foray outside the province.

To ensure the success of this event, all departments within the Momo Group are giving their full support.

This event had no offline components; it was entirely conducted on the Renren.com website. Whether it was using beauty filters or taking artistic photos, the main focus was on a chaotic free-for-all.

After the competition ends and the top ten campus hunks and top ten campus beauties are selected, an awards ceremony will be held on Handong TV. In addition to a prize of 100,000 yuan for each person, there will also be an artist contract with an annual salary of 100,000 yuan and a campus idol training program.

During the awards ceremony, a final round of voting will be held to select the top-ranked school beauty and school hunk.

These two individuals will become campus brand ambassadors for Xiaonei.com Technology and will receive official employee contracts from Xiaonei.com in advance, with an annual salary of 200,000 yuan and a five-year contract.

After setting these up, Cheng Yi began looking for news headlines.

This is what he does best: finding sensational news stories. You can't be a good person doing that.

Because the things that good people like are often not very popular.

Cheng Yi pondered for a while, then wrote a few words in his notebook, and they began to attack each other.

We need to find ways to create a few points of conflict so that the general public can also get involved.

The ridicule of inferior schools by prestigious universities?

A fierce battle between two school beauties?
Is the saying "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river; don't underestimate someone with a low academic background" true for those from less prestigious schools?
There are too many factors that can be hyped up about universities.

Then, taking into account the inherent contradictions and conflicts among certain universities, the external relations departments of various universities will cooperate to stage a few well-intentioned performances.

Most importantly, there are the online trolls who stir up trouble.

This online army is crucial.

At that time, he and all the employees of Xiaonei.com Technology will have to join forces, making all sorts of sarcastic remarks and stirring up emotions among teachers and students of various universities.

That's it!

With the framework in place, Cheng Yi began to formulate the voting rules for the competition.

Registering on the school's intranet and providing your student ID will earn you one vote.

You can get one vote by checking in once a day on the school's online platform.

Posting a status update once a day on your personal column on the school's intranet will earn you three votes.

Being nominated as a contestant for the school's most beautiful and handsome student will earn you ten votes.

Becoming a member of the school's most beautiful and handsome student support group will earn you ten votes.

Finally, the main event: according to the contract he signed with Shengda, he would only receive a five-yuan sponsorship if he created a new account starting with the letter Q and reached level 15.

This can be considered the biggest limiting condition for voting.

Legendary starts charging at level 15, meaning that a charging mechanism is not required.

It takes about 30 minutes to level up to level 15 in Shengda Legend. Assuming one account gets three tickets, each computer can get seventy to eighty tickets per day.

However, this method was just a smokescreen created by Cheng Yi.

After all, students have their studies to attend to, and they can't spend all day leveling up and creating accounts.

If you want to take advantage of Shengda's profits one last time, you'll need to make a little gadget.

Offline mode.

Creating an offline bot isn't too difficult. For front-end games like Legend, you can easily use an offline bot for auto-play.

An offline cheat is a cheat program that can run independently of the game client program, so there is no need to keep the computer running the game client.

It cracks the communication protocol between the game client and the server, simulating the data interaction between the game client and the server. In essence, it is still an independent game client program that can realize functions such as account login and automatic monster fighting without relying on the operation of the game client.

The resource consumption of offline cheats is mainly concentrated on the bandwidth of data communication and the CPU of logic calculation. The consumption of computer memory is almost negligible because it does not need to open the game or have a game screen. Therefore, the demand for hardware resources is far lower than that of traditional cheats, which allows a single computer to run thousands of game accounts simultaneously.

"Sigh, I suddenly feel a pang of conscience," Cheng Yi sighed as he turned on his computer.

For him, running the game offline is as simple as eating and drinking.

To prevent Shengda from detecting any anomalies, he also needed to use an IP node collector to operate offline using nodes from various universities.

As long as these accounts are logged in within the university, with Shengda's current technological capabilities, it's unlikely they'll detect any problems.

At most, they thought these students were a bit crazy in their efforts to rig votes.

But as crazy as it may be, everyone has to honor the contract they signed in black and white, right?
If you don't comply, the Jingzhou City Court is waiting for your meritorious service.

Cheng Yi didn't intend to entrust such a private matter, which would affect his reputation, to others. He spent the entire day in his office writing this offline program.

With the current configuration of the Glory PC in the Genius System, running 300 accounts on one computer is no problem at all.

Proxy IP collector, bulk registration tool, bulk automatic login...

Cheng Yi tackled each challenge one by one, and on the third day, he finally wrote out the prototype of the offline program. During that dinner with Chen Tianqiao, he had originally intended to give Shengda one last chance.

After all, harmony brings wealth, and there's no need to go too far or extreme in many things.

With such a large market in China, it's unrealistic to try and monopolize an entire industry.

But that dinner party shattered Cheng Yi's hopes.

Judging from Chen Tianqiao's attitude towards him and his attempts to incite conflict between him and Yang Yuanqing, Chen Tianqiao is determined to take over the Momo Group.

If Cheng Yi were in Chen Tianqiao's position, he would probably make the same choice.

Who would be willing to share their treasure trove with others?

The business world is like a battlefield; being soft-hearted towards your enemies is the greatest cruelty you can inflict on your own people.

Cheng Yi knew that when Chen Tianqiao took action, he would be just as ruthless as Cheng Yi.

None of those who dare to embark on the path of entrepreneurship are virtuous people.

"Let's see how it goes." Cheng Yi started the offline program on his computer and watched it begin to run automatically.

Automatically register accounts starting with Q and automatically select the server region.

Before long, a simple line drawing of a Bichon map appeared in the offline software, along with a small blue dot and a bunch of small red dots.

Those little red dots are monsters.

The little blue dot represents a character.

Cheng Yi optimized the offline program with enhanced visualization, making the character's position immediately apparent.

After confirming that the single-account test went smoothly, Cheng Yi immediately began operating multiple instances.

As one account after another was created, the first problem arose.

Account registration is experiencing issues.

Cheng Yi left and shut down the offline cheat program to start sorting out the account issues again.

It took another day to finally resolve the account registration chaos.

Looking at the more than 300 offline accounts on the computer, Cheng Yi smiled with satisfaction.

Earning money honestly and diligently is just not as satisfying as getting freebies and deals.

Everyone has this little urge to get something for nothing; otherwise, the "vegetable stealing" game wouldn't have become so popular across the country.

He's stealing vegetables right now, stealing Shengda's golden cabbages.

We have no choice but to steal; Renren Technology desperately needs the money.

Since Momo Group is not a holding company of Xiaonei.com Technology, Xiaonei.com Technology cannot use Momo Group's aggregation account.

This has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that Xiaoneiwang Technology is responsible for its own profits and losses, and has more freedom in transferring funds.

The downside is that Xiaonei.com Technology needs to solve its own funding problems.

Now that Cheng Yi's share dividends from Momo Group have been transferred to Enze Capital, he must make Xiaonei.com Technology turn a profit as soon as possible.

After a few more days of debugging and confirming that there were no problems, Cheng Yi set up five rooms on the third floor of Momo Group and arranged for Li Xiang to place 100 Celeron 2 computers with Genius System installed in each of the five rooms.

While the Genius System's smoothness cannot compare to the Momo System, it can still run two or three hundred offline programs without any problems.

To ensure smooth operation of the offline system, Cheng Yi spent another 100 million yuan to install a 100M enterprise fiber optic cable.

After finishing these tasks, Cheng Yi assigned 10 employees from Xiaoneiwang Technology to each room to monitor and manage these offline programs.

These 500 computers, each running 200 offline bots, can generate 10 level 15 accounts per hour, including account registration, account organization, and IP node allocation. To prevent the Shengda Legend game from detecting any abnormalities, Cheng Yi also set intervals for the offline bots, completely following the schedule of college students.

During class time, each computer runs 20-50 offline instances; during breaks and after school, each computer runs 200-300 instances; and overnight, each computer runs around 100 instances. Overall, approximately 180 million instances are produced daily, generating a total of 900 million yuan in sponsorship funds.

If the event lasts for 30 days, that's 2.7 million yuan in revenue, which can completely make up for the current losses of Xiaonei.com Technology.

However, for such a large event, 30 days probably isn't enough, right?
It will take at least 50 days.

This August, Cheng Yi was incredibly busy. Various orders were constantly being issued from his office and then quickly distributed to the external relations departments of various universities. The external relations department heads' group on Momo was also constantly receiving messages every day.

Everyone is busy preparing for September 5th.

He felt he had a special connection with August.

Last August was the Jingzhou City E-sports Competition, which was in full swing. This August, however, is the National Campus Beauty and Handsome Boy Selection Competition.

The latter is more than a thousand times larger than the former, involving all universities and tens of millions of college students.

This month, in addition to matters related to this competition, the collaboration between Momo Group and Lianzhong Games has also officially begun.

Lianzhong Games opened a portal to integrate with Momo Group's Momo Coins and collaborated with Momo Legend within the game. All computers in Momo Internet Cafes simultaneously launched the Lianzhong Games lobby.

It must be said that Lianzhong Games has a very high-quality customer base.

Their customers, who are elite clients who can play cards and slack off during work hours, have gradually been drawn to nearby Momo Internet Cafes since the collaboration between Lianzhong Games and Momo Internet Cafe began.

Although the number is small, these people are all wealthy.

With a little development, they become true pay-to-win players.

Similarly, the positive feedback that Momo Internet Cafe brought to Lianzhong Games was also amazing. The number of registered users increased by nearly 300,000 in just one week, and the growth trend is still rising rapidly. Bao Yueqiao was so happy that he almost moved the company headquarters to Handong Province.

To prevent Momo Coin from violating regulations, Huang Wenrong, following Cheng Yi's instructions, continuously communicated and negotiated with Handong Commercial Bank, and finally reached a guaranteed buyback agreement for Momo Coin.

For every Momo Coin issued by Momo Group, Handong Commercial Bank receives a profit of 1 cent. Correspondingly, Handong Commercial Bank strictly supervises the issuance of Momo Coins and links them to Momo Group's collection account for a 70% buyback, further ensuring the security and legality of Momo Coins.

In this way, Momo Coin became the token of the Momo Group and was subject to strict control and supervision by banks.

Almost all of Momo Group's businesses are linked to Momo Coin.

All paid services within Momo Internet Cafes are now paid for using Momo Coins, and the recharge amount for membership cards has changed from recharging Huaxia Coins to recharging Momo Coins.

Momo Coins are an important component of Alipay.

Selling at a 1:1 ratio and buying back at a 1:0.7 ratio creates a perfect closed loop of payment and commission.

The plan is now complete; we're just waiting for September 5th.

Once internet companies like Xinlang integrate with the Momo system on September 5th, Momo Coin will be able to demonstrate its true power.
