Chapter 24: Sales Are Up!
Class Reunion.
This is the university classmate group of Qi Xuan.
It gradually became deserted after graduation, and today, it has completely fallen into silence.
But as Qi Xuan ascended the Floating Continent and began to live stream globally, this dead group was revitalized.
Today, when Qi Xuan mentioned Acheng, the liveliness in the group reached an unprecedented peak, almost comparable to when the group was first created:
“Damn, Chengzi, where are you?”
“@Xue Cheng, hurry up and come out, your buddy is calling you from the sky!”
“Damn, you @ the wrong person, 【riding an old lady across the road】 is the one.”
“@riding an old lady across the road, what a terrible online name?”
“You 【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 are also embarrassed to say that?”
“Chrysanthemum is indeed sweet.”
“You, I can’t take it anymore, quickly kick this guy out! How did this thing get into our group?”
“I warn you, I am Xuanzi’s roommate, Chengzi’s companion, and one of the core members of the game after graduation, how dare you speak to me so loudly?”
“【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 has been banned from speaking by the administrator for five minutes.”
“@Dongmen First, well done, haha.”
“Speaking of which, Chengzi hasn’t shown up for a long time, what is he doing now?”
“I heard he went back to his hometown to take over the family business, he should be very busy recently.”
“I remember his family makes building materials, and now houses can’t be sold, the business should be very difficult, right?”
“It has to be done even if it’s difficult, just like the crap job we’re on, if they say overtime, we have to work diligently until night?”
“That’s true, working this job is like being a lady, having to be scolded by the madam, having to be ridiculed by the customers, working hard for a year, and not earning much money.”
“Damn, I can’t hold back what you said, I’m going to write a big miserable character on your leg.”
“Where’s Chengzi? Why isn’t he coming out yet? Such a big deal, he has to show his face.”
“A bunch of people online are impersonating him, even those internet celebrities are trying to get a piece of the action, quickly clarify it.”
“I just saw someone impersonating him selling goods in the Live Stream Room, I went up and said a few words, and was sprayed by a bunch of people, the more I thought about it, the angrier I got, @riding an old lady across the road, you son of a bitch, hurry up and come out, and spray them with me!”
“Who is calling for this great emperor?”
As soon as Xue Cheng came online, the classmates were immediately happy:
“666, our protagonist is here.”
“Still an emperor? BYD, you can’t get out of the game, right?”
“Warmly welcome our Jiang City Huayang Road building materials little prince.”
“Interview, what does it feel like to be told by your childhood friend in public that he’s going to carry you?”
……
Xue Cheng looked at the messages flooding the group, and his mouth curled slightly as he began to type:
“Xuanzi didn’t lie to me, I haven’t even come down yet, and I’ve already been carried, I can’t imagine how high I can fly after he comes down.”
“I didn’t expect it to really have an impact.”
“Haha, don’t forget us old classmates when you take off.”
“Wait, buddy, I also want to be carried, we’ve all made games together, you can’t fly alone.”
“Let’s go, let’s go, quickly go with me to confront those people, I really can’t stand those people in the Live Stream Room impersonating you and talking nonsense.”
“What? Someone dares to impersonate me? I have to give him a taste of his own medicine today!”
Five minutes later.
“Why are you two back again?”
“We were banned from speaking by the Streamer.”
“I’m dying of laughter.”
The group was filled with joy.
Then someone sighed:
“To be honest, so many people impersonating Acheng is enough to show that Xuanzi’s influence is great now.”
“Isn’t it? The stock market was blown up yesterday, directly going up ten thousand points.”
“Speaking of this, I really have to thank Xuanzi, my wife secretly took my money to trade stocks, and lost almost 300,000, if it weren’t for that wave of soaring yesterday to give me a good blood transfusion, I don’t know when I’ll be able to get out of the trap? When he comes down, I must treat him to dinner.”
“Not necessarily?” 【Dongmen First】 questioned, “I know the stock market has soared, but that was clearly the result of national policy, how can you put all the credit on Qi Xuan alone?”
“The policy has been out for so long, and I haven’t seen any movement in the stock market, but as soon as Qi Xuan mentioned the big aircraft, the aviation stocks went up, and the entire market followed, you can’t say that this is still related to the policy, right?”
“It always takes some time for the policy to take effect.”
The crowd argued constantly.
At this time, someone suddenly sent a long message:
“I don’t know if Qi Xuan’s influence affects the stock market, but I have indeed been affected.
Today, after his Live Stream ended, a bunch of people from the company came over to ask me who Acheng was, and asked about my relationship with Qi Xuan, I thought it was troublesome, and I was perfunctory, and didn’t want to pay attention to these things.
As a result, before the end of work in the morning, when choosing a supervisor, I directly ranked first in the vote, and the leaders above also highly recognized me, and even raised the authority of the supervisor by one level, even though I had the shortest work experience beforehand, and was the least favored candidate, but this kind of reversal occurred.
After my inquiry, I found that many people chose me because I was Qi Xuan’s classmate, hoping to get some connections, and then get some benefits, the leaders above also had this idea, after all, Qi Xuan was able to talk about Acheng this time, next time it is possible to talk about me, and then the company will not be able to not become famous.
Although I don’t want to take advantage of others, and take advantage of others’ benefits, but I really have to thank him for this.”
Following this message, several classmates came out to speak:
“The company’s quota for advanced studies originally didn’t have me, after Xuanzi’s Live Stream ended today, the leaders of the headquarters personally approved and arranged one for me.”
“I opened a supermarket in my hometown, and today at noon the supermarket was almost crowded with customers, a bunch of people came over to take photos with me, and asked about Xuanzi’s various deeds.”
“I was just blacklisted by my dating partner yesterday, and today she added me back, and as soon as she came online, she asked if I was Qi Xuan’s classmate, and after I admitted it, she also said that the betrothal gifts were negotiable.”
……
Seeing these examples, 【Dongmen First】 was still unconvinced:
“These things you said may have other reasons, if Qi Xuan really has influence, how could the game sell so poorly?”
“Who said the game sold poorly?”
“He said it himself, more than three thousand copies, isn’t that bad?”
“Look at how many copies it is now.”
Saying this, 【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 directly sent a screenshot of the game sales to the group.
Good heavens, it actually sold more than two hundred thousand copies.
Seeing this result, everyone was stunned.
Qi Xuan, Xue Cheng and others made the game, and they all knew that the game sales were extremely poor.
Even when it was launched, many people in the group went to support it.
But more than three thousand copies, compared to its development cost, it can be said that they lost all their money.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, it actually sold more than two hundred thousand copies.
And as 【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 sent a new screenshot, the game’s sales were still rising rapidly.
“Why is it rising again?”
“Still rising!”
“It looks like it’s about to reach three hundred thousand soon.”
“It’s been selling for so long, and it’s only now exploded?”
……
A group of people were at a loss, 【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 simply intercepted a bunch of new reviews:
“Check in, finally found it.”
“Check in plus one, recommended by the game Streamer.”
“Can’t see Qi God, I have to taste the game made by Qi God.”
“98% favorable rate? I have to play it.”
“The end of the Ming Dynasty killing the Tartars? I have to play it.”
“Sales exceeding one hundred thousand? I have to play it.”
“Company orders exploded, I would like to thank Qi God.”
“I just got off the platform yesterday, thank Qi God for saving my life.”
“I paid nearly fifty thousand tuition fees in various stock recommendation groups, and didn’t earn a penny, yesterday I was directly carried by Qi God, and for the first time I felt the feeling of rising without stopping, I have nothing to say, I’ll buy a thousand copies and give them away.”
“If the market doesn’t rise next week, the game will be directly given a bad review.”
“Damn, using the game to order Qi God, right?”
“But they have to be able to see it.”
…………
After a series of review screenshots were displayed, 【Sweet Chrysanthemum】 directly @ 【Dongmen First】:
“Isn’t this enough to prove that our Xuanzi’s influence is great?”
【Dongmen First】 didn’t say anything.
But the group didn’t cool down either.
The topic quickly turned to the game:
“The game is indeed fun.”
“Yeah, it’s so cool to cut down the Tartars in the late Ming Dynasty.”
“If we had invested more money in propaganda back then, it would have been better.”
“Fortunately, it’s alive now, isn’t it? I’ll go online and take a look, I haven’t had time to play the game I bought.”
“Damn, you fake fan.”
……
Everyone was having fun.
Suddenly someone sent a message:
“Hey! You guys are playing games and didn’t call me!”
Seeing this message, the group instantly fell silent.
