This city simulation game can affect reality.

Li Qingxin's live stream data on the first day was only average.

Thanks to Douyin's platform providing traffic support to new users, the number of users during the evening peak period once reached four figures.

But frankly, compared to those popular tracks, these kinds of live streams featuring artisans, carpenters, and hand weaving are not very appealing.

Even the most sensational headlines can only attract a few people who find amusement in them.

Chen Jun watched the replay and saw that, due to her personality, Li Qingxin did not interact much with the audience throughout the process.

She selectively ignored almost all the jokes thrown at her by others.

Those who asked serious questions only gave rigid, formulaic answers.

However, thanks to Li Qingxin's disability, her relatively pretty face, and her simple clothing, the account still gained about ninety followers.

As for the live streaming revenue, after deducting the platform's commission, the total amount received was 39.72 yuan.

Chen Jun tidied up the equipment and put the tools that the guests had used back in their original places.

Since the Woodcutter's Hut is not a mainstream entertainment venue and is currently in the process of attracting visitors, it does not charge fees in the same way as other tourist attractions.

The resort's pricing policy adopts an in-park consumption-driven model.

The entrance ticket is merely symbolic:

Adults: 58 yuan; Children: 38 yuan; Family package: 108 yuan.

However, almost all services inside require a second payment. Not to mention the regular buildings such as restaurants and accommodations, even the scenic lake and specialty markets require a certain fee per person.

Therefore, many tourists also use phrases like "You have to pay to breathe" and "The cost-effectiveness is really too low" to make fun of it online.

The woodcutter's hut, however, is one of the few exceptions in the entire resort.

This is why even though the attractions are relatively remote, many tourists still choose to visit them.

However, most people just look at it; very few can actually make the crafts themselves.

"Go and rest. I've already had someone arrange a dormitory for you."

"Thank you, Mr. Chen."

Did you bring any luggage with you?

"No...no, I don't have any luggage."

"No luggage?"

"Hmm..." Li Qingxin's eyes darted around.

Chen Jun didn't ask too many questions, but simply instructed, "Go to the finance department tomorrow to get an advance of 500 yuan of your salary, and buy some daily necessities. If you need any help, you can ask Xiao Lü."

"Your only job from now on will be live-streaming the making of handicrafts. Later, depending on the situation, we may have you shoot some short videos."

Xiao Lü is currently the head of the guest room department at the resort. This department was originally handled by Lao Zhou himself, but now that he has taken over the external affairs department, he is so busy that Chen Jun has to transfer people from below to fill the position.

......

Inside the bedroom of Chen Jun's residence.

[Architecture: Woodcutter's Hut]

[Level: Lv1 Rustic Workshop]

Experience points: 17/100

[Current tools: carving knife, sandpaper]

The hut gains one experience point for each craft item made by a resident.

Compared to the experience bar of individual residents, the upgrade requirements for the woodcutter's hut are significantly lower.

In just one day, they managed to complete nearly one-fifth of the progress.

"If tourists can upgrade to level two and unlock more tools, they will be able to make handicrafts more easily."

Chen Jun wasn't worried at all that a tourist might actually become a top-notch carpenter inside the woodcutter's hut.

Not to mention that most people don't have the patience to stay indoors for too long.

Even if some well-meaning individuals quietly create hundreds or thousands of handicrafts to meet the upgrade requirements set by the game system, it would still be beneficial to the resort.

This is a real-life marketing case study.

Chen Jun now earnestly hopes that the Woodcutter's Hut can cultivate a large number of woodworking enthusiasts and thoroughly establish Xita's reputation.

"If Li Qingxin's live stream goes well, we will definitely need to build a few more rooms to distribute the customers."

The cabin currently accommodates five people at a time, which is more than enough for now.

However, if the number of visitors increases in the future, Chen Jun will have no choice but to return to the conventional charging model, in addition to increasing the number of buildings.

Resident satisfaction: 25%

City attractiveness: 16

In the upper right corner of the game interface, both of the resort's statistics are steadily increasing.

This is probably related to the placement of the woodcutter's hut.

Furthermore, once the traffic issues are properly resolved, there will be ongoing feedback.

By constantly shifting the game's perspective, Chen Jun conducted another inspection of the entire resort.

He has already begun to address the most serious problems that have been exposed, but it will take some time before we see results.

If we follow the normal game progression, we should now be ready to enter the expansion phase.

The map in City Simulator has no size limit. Theoretically, as long as your graphics card, CPU, and memory can handle it, players can build cities that are infinitely large.

Furthermore, individuals can choose from a variety of different development paths based on their personal preferences.

However, constrained by reality, Chen Jun clearly cannot do as he pleases.

Looking at the vast open spaces surrounding the resort, it would be a lie to say he wasn't envious.

Due to policy restrictions, Chen Jun's ambitions seem to be limited to a strategy of gradual encroachment and slow expansion.

However, for now, preserving the resort's existing land is the most pressing issue.

Lost in thought, Chen Jun casually opened a few mainstream apps to see if the resort's ratings had changed recently.

Previously, Lao Zhou was also in charge of this area, and a comprehensive analysis report would be conducted every quarter.

Due to its declining reputation and lack of distinctive features, the resort now rarely attracts tourists who come specifically for its reputation.

This is why Chen Jun wanted to use the woodcutter's hut to draw in the current.

The agritainment businesses behind the mountain are booming, and with many similar resorts in the city eyeing the market, if Xita doesn't highlight its unique features, it is destined to be swept away by the tides of time.

It took Chen Jun more than half an hour to finally browse through some of the reviews about the Hitta Resort on various apps.

Compared to the previous few days, the ratings have not changed much.

However, he noted that thanks to improvements in traffic conditions, some platforms had seen a few more four- or five-star reviews.

Although the overall impact is negligible, it at least shows that Chen Jun's efforts were meaningful.

In addition, among the new comments today, there were also occasional praises for the woodcutter's hut.

Although the sample size is too small, it still reflects that the architecture itself has its merits.

However, Chen Jun also made a new discovery among the many negative reviews.

In addition to the same old issues, some people have recently brought up the term "air quality" again.

If we simply say that the space is sticky, greasy, and stuffy, we can attribute the problem to urban pollution.

However, some of the reviews claimed to have smelled pungent odors at the resort.
