Chapter 22 Profiteering
Miracle Internet Cafe.
Internet cafe boss Zhang found the network administrator and was really curious about Mu Yang's secret actions during this period.
"Xiao Gang, did you find out what game that kid Mu Yang played?
I guess the journey is mostly a cover-up."
There is no monitor installed in the background of the box computer, otherwise, what the other party is doing can be known through the server.
Of course, I only know what program the sub-computer is running, but if I can't see the image, I still don't know what it is doing specifically.
It's not that Boss Zhang wants to steal other people's secrets, but Mu Yang has been renting a computer for more than a month, and his curiosity has accumulated to a certain level, so he can't help but gossip.
This is like a beautiful woman who suffers from bleeding for a few days every month.
Well, this metaphor is a bit crude.
But, it makes sense.
"Boss, Mu Yang keeps the secret very well. No one else is allowed in, and the computer screen is locked.
But I guess it should be Diablo 3, not Zhengtu." Network administrator Xiaogang laughed like a thief.
"Oh, why Diablo 3?"
Network administrator Xiaogang whispered: "He asked me to download six games from the Internet cafe game platform, and Diablo 3 happened to be in public beta that day.
I know that for several other games, if you hang up and make money or level up, you won’t make much money at all.
Think about it, boss, the rental fee for 15 computers for one and a half months is 20,000 yuan. In addition to the labor he hired, there may be other expenses, at least 30,000 yuan.
Also, plug-ins also cost money.
If he didn't make more than double the money he invested, would he be willing to do this?
In fact, I guessed it was Diablo 3, and I only found out in the past two days. I happened to see a lot of people discussing on the Battle.net forum that some players made millions by farming gold in Diablo 3, and even took screenshots on the game platform.
There are three trading accounts that are crazy about selling gold coins. The number of transactions is 9999+, and the transaction amount of each transaction is at least 100 yuan.
So, I guess, it’s probably Mu Yang.”
"Damn it, doesn't that mean he made millions!"
Internet cafe boss Zhang couldn't help but use foul language.
He rented fifteen computers. Within a month, under his eyes, he easily made more money than his net worth. His investment in this miracle Internet cafe was less than two million yuan.
There are not many students online during the holidays, so it will take a year or two to make back the money.
"Xiao Gang, is this just a random guess on your part?"
"I passed by the box yesterday and heard him talking on the phone very loudly. Boss, guess what I heard?" Xiaogang saw the boss frown and knew that a rough guy like him was impatient, so he continued.
,
"Muyang seemed to be talking to a customer about the Diablo 3 plug-in software. He said that the price of 30,000 yuan was at least 30,000 yuan and that he could provide a video of the operation. Finally, the transaction was successful and he asked to trade on Diobao."
"Tsk, tsk, this guy made a fortune in a low profile, so why is he selling cheats? He doesn't like it."
"Boss, someone exposed the gold-earning map and method in advance. I guess he knew he couldn't hide it, and then he hyped it up and sold the equipment.
There are a lot of people selling gold-grinding equipment in Diablo 3 these days, and they are extremely expensive. Those game accounts are always listed for sale.
Some players analyzed that it was probably caused by the mysterious studio.
This mysterious studio probably belongs to Mu Yang.
Of course, I just combined some insider guesses, you can confirm it.
Haha, many studios are rushing to buy equipment in order to enter the game and earn money. In the game auction, it usually only costs thirty or forty yuan, but in recent days it has sold for two to three hundred yuan. Muyang must have planned the hype in advance. I really admire it.
died."
The network manager Xiaogang was really bored on the night shift. Every time he went to the second floor, he couldn't help but take a second look at the three boxes, so he was bored and made up his mind. Otherwise, he wouldn't have the time to analyze it.
Of course, the above analysis was summarized by him based on the forum. It would be good to show off his IQ in front of his boss and strive for good performance.
"Fuck, there are so many tricks, it's really huge profits!"
The more Boss Zhang thought about it, the more curious he became about Mu Yang. He went to the Battle.net forum and found related posts about gold farming.
The more I watched, the more shocked I became, and I had to admire it.
Knowing that Mu Yang was still on the second floor, when he reached the second floor, Boss Zhang wanted to enter the box, but was stopped by Li Chuang.
"Boss Zhang, you'd better not go in. Mu Yang will come out soon." After Li Chuang finished speaking, his face was a little embarrassed, but he still stopped him. Mu Yang had ordered that no one, including the network administrator and the boss, could go in.
If he lets the Internet cafe owner in, he probably won't be able to do this job.
Anyway, it was Mu Yang who paid the salary, not the Internet cafe owner, and Li Chuang was not afraid of offending the Internet cafe owner.
"Haha, okay, I'll wait for him."
The Internet cafe owner smiled, but his expression was not good. He was blocked from entering his Internet cafe. He was humiliated. However, he also understood that Mu Yang had made an agreement with him before and strictly prohibited other people from entering, including him and the network administrator.
Mu Yang was busy finishing things when he heard the conversation outside, turned off the computer screen, and walked out of the box.
When Boss Zhang saw Mu Yang, he smiled and handed over the cigarette, and asked curiously: "Brother, I heard that you made tens of millions playing Diablo 3. I admire you."
Mu Yang was surprised in his heart how Boss Zhang knew about it, but considering that the gold-financing project was coming to an end, he was not afraid of being exposed, but he just pretended to be stunned and asked: "What's tens of millions?"
"Uh, brother, don't panic. I'm just curious about how you did it. You've already exposed your gold farming strategy, and you definitely want to quit."
Mu Yang didn't expect that the boss had guessed this about him. There was no point in hiding it, and he didn't want to cover it up. It was too tiring: "The tens of millions are just exaggerated. Forum netizens spread rumors. It's not that much, only two or three million."
That’s all.”
Mu Yang is not a person who shows off his money and wants the whole world to know about it.
But he is not short of money anymore. He strictly abstains from extravagance and prefers to be frugal. He spends what he has to spend. Spending money will inevitably attract various suspicions.
Don't show off. If you can conceal the source of your wealth, conceal it. If it's difficult to conceal it, it's better to simply admit it and feel better. The money was not stolen.
Boss Zhang smiled, he wasn't sure it was Mu Yang just now, he just wanted to deceive him, but he didn't expect that the mysterious studio was really him.
He didn't say anything. It seemed that he could definitely earn several million, maybe even tens of millions.
Damn it, why are today’s students so awesome? It seems that reading is still useful and the brain is useful.
"Brother, is it okay to enter now?"
Mu Yang shook his head and smiled faintly: "It's already too late, why else should I prepare to quit? Why don't I just keep doing it?
If you want to enter the market, it will be difficult to get your money back. The price of gold is too low now.
Nowadays, equipment is not cheap. A set of gold-brushing equipment costs two to three thousand yuan, and software also costs two to three thousand yuan.
Moreover, there are too many studios entering this game now, and I can’t guarantee how many more days we can continue to work on it.
How about you give me 100,000 and I'll transfer the game account, equipment, and software to you?"
Mu Yang really didn't scare him. If he really gave him 100,000 yuan, he would really transfer it to Boss Zhang. The software was not a castrated version yet. How many he could sell was up to him.
Even if it is sold to Boss Zhang, he will continue to sell plug-in software. Now the price is only 10,000 yuan, but how many can he sell?
If he grinds gold coins for another ten days, the gold coins will depreciate to the point where it is no longer worthwhile for him to continue grinding gold coins. It would be good to earn 100,000 during this period. After ten days, the equipment will not be worth much anymore.
Mu Yang didn't dare to cheat Boss Zhang. The two had known each other for such a long time, and they also knew that Mu Yang was from the University of Technology. If Boss Zhang was cheated, he would definitely go to him to trouble him, so he made it clear.
"Forget it, I won't enter the game. I'm just curious about how you young people make money. I'm not suitable for this and can't play.
Otherwise, I have so many computers that I would have used them as a studio long ago. It would be better to make money honestly." Boss Zhang laughed and cursed in his heart for investing so much money. Mu Yang was about to quit, and he must have realized that he was no longer making money.
, if he jumps in again, it will be a trap.
"Boss Zhang, if nothing happens, I will continue working."
"You're busy, you're busy, leave me alone."
After Boss Zhang finished speaking, his steps did not move.
"Can I see how you do it? I'm a little curious. I promise I won't expose it." Boss Zhang asked this question knowing that he was about to finish.
Otherwise, Mu Yang would definitely reject him if he asked, and he would be embarrassed.
Mu Yang thought for a moment and didn't refuse. Anyway, there is nothing to hide now: "Of course, this is your territory."
Mu Yang no longer concealed the operation and modified the script programming of the castrated version. There happened to be an order to be traded. The serial number of each castrated version is different and needs to be set.
Boss Zhang couldn't understand the lines of English programs, and he was shocked by this guy. It would be great if we could cooperate. With so many games, we can earn thousands more a year. It's really
Cool.
Mu Yang finished it after working hard for a while. He was very tired during this period. He wanted to go back and catch up on his sleep for a while, and then got up to brush up on reading. He had almost lost a lot of experience, and he would definitely upgrade today.
Just as he was about to leave the Internet cafe, Boss Zhang pulled him and said what he had just thought. Feeling that he regretted missing it, he asked: "Brother, if there is a new game, can we cooperate?"
Well, I will provide the computer and funds, and any losses will be mine, and you will provide the strategies and software. If you make money, we brothers will split it in half."
Mu Yang shook his head: "Other games don't have such good opportunities and can't make money.
Diablo 3 is different from other games. There are tens of thousands of high-end players. Which game do you think is so awesome?
Moreover, the way to earn money in Diablo 3 is that I was able to participate in the trial test and discovered the opportunity by chance. The opportunity is only this one, and I may never touch the game again in the future.
Otherwise, if I had this ability, I would have opened my own studio and made money long ago."
As for the cooperation that Boss Zhang said, he can really find opportunities to make money, and the risks are extremely low. He still works alone, how could he be willing to share the cake with others.
But when dealing with others, there is no need to be so absolute.
"Hey, that's true. It's a pity."
Boss Zhang let out a long sigh, not even giving him a chance to regret, and his dream of getting rich was extinguished within a minute.
Boss Zhang chatted for a while and left after feeling that there were no business opportunities.
