“Ouch, this game is really good.”
“Yeah, the graphics are exquisite, and the controls are smooth.”
“It’s hard to believe this is a browser game.”
The young masters from rich families had quite high praise for this game.
Jiang Xu was racking his brain, figuring out how to get these people willingly pour in money.
Got it!
A spark of inspiration flashed through Jiang Xu’s mind, and he quickly switched accounts.
He had an account from when he was testing the game.
This account was only level one, but the character’s appearance was stunningly rad.
He logged in with this account, arrived at the gate of the newbie village.
He said to the young masters, “Guys, I’m at the gate of the newbie village, let’s team up?”
Zhang Lu said, “Sure, we’re on our way.”
The location of the newbie village was not far, and they arrived very quickly.
Then…
“Damn xs!”
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the newbie village, these rich kids unconsciously blurted out some vulgar expressions.
They saw an incredibly cool character standing there.
In his hand, he held a glowing long sword, and on his back were huge, colorful wings.
Underneath him was a ferocious black dragon mount, while a cute pet, reminiscent of Huba, flew around him.
Purple thunderbolts flickered around this character, which gave an impression of high prestige.
Above his head was a constantly glowing title: The Most Badass.
Everyone stared without blinking, almost drooling over the character.
Some newly registered players couldn’t move after leaving the newbie village, frozen by the sight of such a stylish character.
Unless you’re an avid gamer, it’s hard to understand the allure of a set of fashionable gear for them.
Jiang Xu sent them a team invitation.
This game could accommodate up to five hundred people in a team.
If you became a VIP10, this number could continue to grow.
Maximum team size could hit ten thousand players.
Then, Jiang Xu led them to the wilderness to fight monsters.
“Bang! Bang! Bang…”
All heroes initially had two skills.
Jiang Xu’s character was a magician, with fireball and wind blade skills.
However, unlike ordinary players, the skill effects were wildly cool.
Of course, the damage remained the same.
Jiang Xu intended to run this game for a long time, so he didn’t plan to add anything that would break the game balance.
The main profit would come from cool skins, special skill effects, mounts, etc.
Just the mounts alone, there were over one hundred kinds, covering various races.
“Go, master, you’re awesome.”
As Jiang Xu cast his skills, a hot-bodied ice queen appeared on the side, cheering him on in a sweet voice.
This was also a special effect exclusive for VIP10.
Zhang Lu and the others:
Compared to Jiang Xu, they felt like beggars.
They couldn’t bear this!
Moreover, many aspects of this game catered to their tastes.
Such as having a beauty on the side cheering when casting a spell, what other game had such a feature?
Zhang Lu slapped the table, “I want to recharge, and get a set.”
“No, no, no.” Jiang Xu quickly stopped him: “We are all friends, how can I ask you guys to put in money?
If you like this game, you can pick from the store, and I’ll have the programmers send you the things.”
“No need.” One of the young masters from a rich family refused: “That’s not fun, how much does your set cost?”
“This…” Jiang Xu hesitated a bit.
“Hurry up and say.” Zhang Lu said impatiently: “We all have enough money at home.”
“It’s quite expensive.” Jiang Xu gave a bitter smile: “If it’s on the standard of my account, it needs five hundred thousand.
Moreover, these won’t increase combat effectiveness, they’re purely for aesthetics.
Because the core of this game is, no matter how rich you are, you can’t become stronger through money, 1V100.”
“Of course, if any of you are willing to spend a few hundred million to buy this game, pretend I didn’t say anything…” Jiang Xu silently added in his heart. Jiang Xu’s words ignited their interest instead.
They were already tired of games where a recharge would make one invincible.
Furthermore, Jiang Xu told them two ways how this game was different from others.
One was equipment randomness.
Even a small monster could drop god-tier equipment.
Conversely, you could kill a big boss and get nothing.
Another was the ascension and crossing-tribulation mode.
When you reached max level and satisfied specific conditions, you could choose to cross the tribulation.
If you succeeded in crossing the tribulation, you ascended to higher realms.
If you failed in the tribulation, your level was halved.
The rich young masters became more interested after hearing this.
Then…
They recharged!
And each of the five people recharged five hundred thousand.
Jiang Xu could only say it was really surprising.
He initially thought that each of these people could recharge a few tens of thousands, at most one hundred thousand, which would be incredible.
Who would have thought that they all recharged as much?
For these big customers, it was natural to provide the best service.
He casually took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Lin Nan.
Ask her to recruit more people for tomorrow.
These big spenders all needed a dedicated customer service to provide them with the most intimate service at all times.
Jiang Xu also designed many Easter eggs in the game.
They triggered a few while fighting monsters and doing tasks, adding to the fun.
The young masters all said they would stay up all night to level up.
It was challenging to level up in this game.
Leveling up too quickly might upset the balance.
For these big customers, Jiang Xu also stayed up all night.
He sent a message to An Nuonuo explaining the situation.
Soon, An Nuonuo replied.
She didn’t stop him from staying up all night, but just asked where the internet cafe was and asked him to be careful.
If he had a specific time, she would prepare breakfast at home.
A warm feeling filled Jiang Xu’s heart.
Feeling cared for and remembered by someone was wonderful.
He was unsure of what time he would finish, so he told her not to make breakfast and sleep in a bit longer.
Then, he dove into leveling up with these people for the rest of the night.
By midnight, Jiang Xu personally went to buy some late-night snacks along with some beer and small snacks.
Building friendships between men was actually quite easy.
As long as they had common interests and hobbies, they had topics to talk about.
Jiang Xu shared only a few hobbies with them, such as watching international documentaries.
Moreover, Jiang Xu would occasionally tell some “elegant” jokes, making the young masters laugh loudly.
They found Jiang Xu more and more agreeable.
Of course, the primary reason was that Zhang Lu and his companions told them that Jiang Xu had started his own business at a young age and was quite successful.
Although their abilities were not especially strong, they knew the basic common sense of making connections with talented people.
Now that everyone got along so well, naturally, they found Jiang Xu more agreeable.
Then, these men did something that surprised Jiang Xu immensely….
