Chapter 342

Even though market research had been done in advance and there were psychological expectations, the popularity of the customization business still exceeded Li Cheng's expectations.

The reason is simple. Most players sharpen their heads to join large guilds, and the larger the guild, the more rational and cold it is. Its human resources department will secretly establish long-term secret files for every member under the guild, recording data on learning ability, thinking flexibility, emotional management ability, stress regulation, willpower, etc.,

And score them at the end.

The higher the score, the greater the potential, the more likely to rise to a higher level, and bring long-term benefits to the guild.

Therefore, they can get more resource inclination.

Including tailor-made equipment and props, meticulous and scientific training plans, and even emotional support—GS Biotechnology will even use gene-splicing technology for its S-level potential stock players to create dream lovers.

From skin color, hair color, pupil color, to personality, memory, and pheromones unconsciously emitted by the body, all are aimed at the weaknesses in the genes, which can be called genetic special attack.

Taking down players in minutes, making players have 100% loyalty to the guild from then on!

In contrast, those players with low to medium ratings don't have such good treatment. Most of the equipment they receive is standard equipment, and skill scrolls that have been picked by others.

If the power system needs to spend a little more money, such as the crimson rider's summoning flow, then it is really wishing to break a game coin into two halves.

Every time a mission is completed, it must be carefully calculated, repeatedly deliberating between buying, buying, and strengthening immediate combat power, and saving funds to fight for the future.

The customization business of 【Star Casting Anvil】 just solved this problem that troubled many players—as long as you spend 20% to 30% more premium and wait for about a week, you can buy the props/skills missing in the power system puzzle and make up for the shortcomings.

No need to stare at the auction house and pay attention to black market news like before.

Less than half a day after opening for business, a large group of players crowded at the door of 【Star Casting Anvil】, waving the banknotes in their hands.

"Boss, boss, can protective gear be customized? Requirement height 1.5 meters, model 4XL, protection level can resist the frontal direct shot of a tank main gun."

"Boss, I want to customize a skill scroll, requiring the ability to transform painful sensory stimulation into intense pleasure. The price is negotiable."

"Shopkeeper! As long as you bring the cultural relics, your shop can create perfect items of the corresponding type, right? This is the Thompson submachine gun used by Chicago mobster Al Capone, this is the private helicopter Cloud Lark of South American drug lord Pablo Escobar, this is the Godfather ring of the second-generation Godfather Michael Corleone, this is Liu Liu Huaqiang's watermelon knife..."

Li Cheng in the counter almost couldn't hold it. Al Capone and Pablo are fine, but Michael and Liu Liu Huaqiang are clearly virtual characters in movies and TV shows, right?

Where did you get these things, the blood on the fruit knife hasn't dried yet, hey.

The voices were loud and chaotic. Li Cheng had to find a loudspeaker from under the counter, press the button, and play the pre-recorded AI-generated audio.

"Follow 【Star Casting Anvil】 meow, follow the official account of 【Star Casting Anvil】 on the forum, thank you meow."

Uh, played the wrong one. Not this one.

Li Cheng hurriedly pressed the button again, and the loudspeaker shouted: "Don't squeeze, scan the QR code to jump to the applet, and submit the prepayment in the applet to make an appointment. If you want to customize perfect-level items, go to the self-service terminal yourself and deposit the corresponding cultural relics."

Seeing Li Cheng's attitude of "everyone go line up for grandpa", the players crowded at the door knew that arguing was useless, so they took out their mobile phones one after another and submitted prepayments in the applet.

Those players who were dressed in strange clothes and could tell they were strong at a glance lined up to stand in front of the self-service terminal and put the cultural relics prepared in advance into the metal frame.

"I want to refine a big knife with the national fortune of the 276-year reign of the Manchu Qing Dynasty."

A middle-aged man wearing the same white clothes as Chen Jinnan took out a pile of old and damaged items from the void, "This is the thirteen sets of armor of Nurhaci, this is the original version of Yongzheng's 'Dayi Jue Mi Lu', this is the Qianlong Jade Seal, this is the living Puyi."

"Wait!" Li Cheng hurriedly raised his hand, "The last one won't work."

Chen Jinnan frowned, "Hmm? Why not? Is it because this Puyi is still alive?"

"What the hell, you don't even look at how old this Puyi is, he hasn't been weaned yet, and he hasn't ascended the throne in history."

Li Cheng pointed to the small blackboard set up at the door, "Only cultural relics with major historical significance and profound changes in the direction of world history can take effect. Puyi who has not ascended the throne or abdicated does not count." While he was talking, he picked up the small blackboard, enlarged and bolded the words on it, and picked up his mobile phone to specially mark it on the store's official website page.

Save those players who are obsessed with power from sending historical celebrities kidnapped from the script world to him all day long.

First, it is very troublesome for the Toy Factory crushing room to clean up the remains of the dead.

Secondly, some historical figures really don't have as much value as the cultural relics related to them.

For example, former US Secretary of State "Tide-waiter" Powell, a dignified Secretary of State, the influence of his whole life is not as good as the small bottle of laundry detergent he took out at the UN Security Council in 2003 to accuse Iraq of developing chemical weapons.

Queen Elizabeth of the UK is the same—far less than Victoria, a pure mascot, the value that can be squeezed out of concepts is not as good as the Koh-i-Noor diamond on the crown that concentrates the history of British colonization of India.

After driving away several players who tried to jump the queue, the customer flow at the shop door gradually returned to normal, and most people left appointment information and went back to wait for news with satisfaction.

"Hello, Mr. Master Pi Fu."

Two handsome men and beautiful women in straight suits found an opportunity to come up, greeted Li Cheng enthusiastically, and placed a stack of Slum Street general currency chips (worth 10,000 game coins) on the counter, "We are authorized representatives of Prometheus, and we want to talk to you about cooperation..."

The two representatives were clearly business elites, and according to the not-so-much psychological profile of Li Cheng in the company's database, they had done research in advance, and quickly explained their intention in an attitude and tone that would not cause his resentment.

!

"We want to contract half of the engineering time of your 【Star Casting Anvil】, that is, produce ten to fifteen perfect-quality items per month. All cultural relics are borne by our side, the processing fee paid is an additional 30% higher than the market price, and we will give you guild dividends. These are the specific terms, please take a look..."

Although Prometheus is not clear about the specific effect of the Toy Factory, based on the market grasp ability of the large guild, as well as the project information hung out by 【Star Casting Anvil】,

They can still easily calculate the forging cycle, cost and marginal cost, profit and marginal profit of Li Cheng's shop, and the treatment given can be considered quite generous.

"Sorry, not interested."

Li Cheng shook his head, "Please go back."

The two business representatives didn't expect Li Cheng to refuse so quickly. According to their thinking, 【Star Casting Anvil】 undertakes commissions and manufactures high-value items, just to earn processing fees.

Isn't it processing for anyone, isn't it good to have a stable demand side? The money is more and worry-free. Could it be that he has a prejudice against this company, Prometheus?

The handsome man and beautiful woman business representatives looked at each other, the young and beautiful white-collar worker retreated silently, walked towards Huiyu who was lying on the titanium alloy recliner playing with her mobile phone, and started to get close to her.

The male representative stayed behind, carefully deliberated the words, and said to Li Cheng: "Do you think there is anything inappropriate? The specific terms can be discussed again..."

"This is Star Casting Anvil, the anvil belongs to gold, which is the Al Qian hexagram. Prometheus steals fire, belongs to fire, which is the Li hexagram. Essence wins firmness, so fire overcomes gold. Both Al Qian hexagram and Li hexagram are masculine, and they are even more conflicting."

Li Cheng said nonsense, kidding, undertaking commissions from players of all parties can acquire cultural relics from different script worlds, greatly expanding the concept library. It is convenient for Li Cheng to fleece.

And working for Prometheus is just making money.

"Ah..."

The business representative didn't expect Li Cheng to talk nonsense about Yin, Yang and Five Elements, but he was worthy of his super-high school elite academic qualifications, and the super high salary Prometheus gave him,

After being stunned for a few seconds, he followed Li Cheng's words without changing his face, "That's right, it's just that the middle Yang line of the Al Qian hexagram becomes a Yin line, which is the Li hexagram. Al Qian is heaven, Li is the sun, the sun rises in the middle of the sky, heaven is long and earth is long.

Most players only bloom for a while like epiphyllum, while the cooperation between 【Star Casting Anvil】 and Prometheus can benefit both sides and create a future together."

Damn buddy, how much salary does Prometheus pay you to be so hard-working.

Li Cheng coughed lightly, "Because it is suitable, it is not suitable. This sentence is philosophy, it is difficult for you to understand."

Just when he was about to be unable to make it up, a familiar figure appeared outside the shop door, breaking the embarrassment.
