This city simulation game can affect reality.

"Mr. Chen, please do me the honor of having a meal with us. You can choose the place!"

"Boss Chen, how much for the Fisherman's Hut card? Name your price, and I won't haggle."

"Boss Chen, 200,000 yuan, cash, for one of your Hermit Cards."

"Boss Chen, I've got my eye on your project. How about we team up, expand it, and create something even more brilliant?"

"....."

In the past few days, Chen Jun's phone has been ringing off the hook.

At first, it was just a few unfamiliar numbers, but as things progressed, the calls became more frequent.

Later on, sometimes the phone would ring every few minutes throughout the day, almost non-stop.

These people use all sorts of rhetoric, but their core demand is the same: the fisherman's hut.

They either came for the membership or they saw the potential in the project itself.

The person on the other end of the phone was either a wealthy man with plenty of spare cash or a prominent local businessman.

Actually, things developing to this point today weren't too unexpected for Chen Jun.

From the moment the idea of ​​scarcity marketing popped into his head, he had already foreseen its inevitable development.

However, this trend came much faster and with greater force than expected.

Now, it's not just people in the fishing community; many business owners and brokers also see Fisherman's Hut membership cards as a novel form of social currency, used to build relationships or as gifts for important clients.

The underlying logic of all this is that the Fisherman's Hut is not a marketing product, but has genuine selling points.

Visitors who have experienced it firsthand can feel the wonder of this place.

For them, improving their fishing skills while gaining a significant sense of accomplishment and reward is undoubtedly incredibly attractive.

Spending money to buy this kind of progress that you can actually experience is definitely a worthwhile deal.

With this core experience as the foundation, and by gaining the approval of a core group of people, there can be a subsequent word-of-mouth effect and rapid expansion beyond the circle.

After all, no matter how much a membership is touted as miraculous, it must be based on real needs and value; otherwise, it is ultimately just worthless plastic.

Faced with these diverse desires, Chen Jun never gave up.

Whether the words were direct or tactful, he politely declined with high emotional intelligence.

The more others desire something, the less you should allow yourself to open that door.

Furthermore, a more stringent review and removal mechanism will need to be established to eliminate dormant users who occupy quotas but do not actively consume.

"When the first review cycle arrives next year, the scene will probably be very lively."

This is only the beginning, and if nothing unexpected happens, the influence of the membership card will only continue to grow over time.

This will undoubtedly serve as an excellent stepping stone for the execution and promotion of Chen Jun's subsequent plans.

......

At lunchtime, Chen Jun asked Lao Zhou to bring him a few side dishes from the restaurant. As he was slowly eating, his phone screen suddenly lit up, and the message on it made him put down his chopsticks immediately.

The person who sent the message was Li Qingxin.

The dialog box contains a clearly captured image.

The text below reads: "[Boss, I found this in a hidden compartment while I was organizing my bag.]"

Chen Jun immediately clicked on the image and zoomed in.

The image clearly shows a miniature black voice recorder.

It has a very ordinary appearance and a small size. If you are not careful, you might think it is an electronic component that you left in your bag.

[When was it discovered? No one else but you knows, right?]

Chen Jun frowned and immediately replied.

I just saw it when I was looking for something; there was no one else around.

Ever since you called to inquire about the keys and the students' situation, I've been keeping a closer eye on them and paying special attention to their behavior.

This morning during break, I saw Xiang Cheng loitering around where I left my bag. I never imagined he would do something like that.

Li Qingxin replied with three messages in a row.

Chen Jun couldn't help but look at her with newfound respect; her vigilance was undeniable.

He hadn't explicitly mentioned Xiang Cheng's matter before, in order to avoid alerting the enemy.

But Li Qingxin was clearly more sensitive than expected and took deliberate precautions.

Opening his laptop and entering the game "City Simulator," Chen Jun turned his perspective to the interior of the woodcutter's hut.

He slid the touchpad, meticulously inspecting each room.

Sure enough, there were similar recording pens in many hidden corners, even in the basement.

The other party made arrangements in various places, including the gaps in the podium, the sides of the worktable legs, and the windows of some empty rooms.

Chen Jun inspected the interiors of several treehouse inns, but perhaps because he hadn't found a suitable opportunity yet, the place where Master Yang was staying didn't have such equipment.

In the past few days, he has also been keeping an eye on Xiang Cheng's movements through the game, and he can confirm that the other party has not left the resort.

My daily routine consists of three points: the treehouse inn, the woodcutter's hut during class time, and meals within the resort.

This situation only indicates that the other party's reconnaissance is likely still in the stage of casting a wide net and taking a chance, without any high-quality results.

Therefore, the only way to contact the online partner was through mobile phone.

If a major discovery is made, the other party will not remain so calm and will inevitably go out to report the news.

Ignoring the recording pens, Chen Jun stared at the computer screen, thinking to himself, "This time I'll make them feel the pain."

He picked up his phone and replied to Li Qingxin via WeChat:

【Well done, Xiao Li. Now, don't touch that recorder; put it back exactly where it was.】

Everything will proceed as usual. Please wait for my message. I will tell you exactly what to do if your cooperation is needed.

Li Qingxin replied with an emoji, which was a rabbit saluting.

Yes sir

......

After quickly finishing his meal, Chen Jun immediately called Lao Zhou into his office.

Once the heavy wooden door closed, only two people remained inside.

The problems we face are no longer minor squabbles.

If the previous act of sending infiltrators was still within the realm of what might be tolerated, then the discovery of listening devices this time has crossed the bottom line of the resort's security operations.

Fortunately, it can be confirmed that the area being monitored is limited to the area around the woodcutter's hut.

This "secret meeting" lasted for nearly two hours.

When he emerged from his office again, Lao Zhou looked perfectly normal and continued with his usual work.

He left the resort quietly the next morning.

Chen Jun also remained still, proceeding with the follow-up work of the activity center according to the original plan.

After the weekend, according to the schedule, it's time for campus recruitment.
