Thursday, September 16.

Pei Qian came to the Handong University store of Moyu Internet Cafe again to inspect Qiao Laoshi's game progress.

This time, Pei Qian's mentality is completely different from before.

Because... he has passed the level!

Of course, he passed the level with the simplest difficulty. He used "Pudu" and jumped directly from the Huangquan Road to the six realms of reincarnation, and finished the boss of the six realms of reincarnation.

If Pei Qian was asked to call the second Zhou goal at this time, it would be difficult to move forward.

Because the initial difficulty of the second week is very high, and the "Pudu" when it reaches the second week is the same as other weapons. Even because it cannot be strengthened, it will gradually become more trash than other weapons, and it is purely a suicide act to kill monsters.

But what does this matter? Anyway, the system's task has been completed, and Pei Qian feels relaxed.

On the other hand, the matter of the new store of Moyu Internet Cafe is almost done.

The location is located in the largest shopping mall in Beijing, and the rent is not cheap, 12 yuan, which is already the most expensive place Mr. Pei has ever rented.

Although it is still incomparable to the rent ten years later, it is already shocking enough now.

This time the area is not as spacious as before. After all, it is in the mall, only about 800 square meters.

After deciding not to engage in coffee and alcohol business, he saved a lot of space. Pei Qian also specially left one for public leisure and entertainment area and equipped with a projector.

The remaining space can be placed in 150 computers.

Pei Qian roughly calculated that the monthly rent was close to 300,000 yuan, and then recruited two cashiers and four network administrators, and paid 30,000 to 400,000 yuan a month. Adding electricity bills, cleaning and other expenses, it costs 400,000 yuan a month.

Continue to charge 10 yuan per hour. Currently, the average chance of attending online cafes is only 30% or 40%. Calculate based on the standard business hours between 8:00 and 24:00 a.m., if you calculate it, you will earn 300,000 yuan.

Of course, many Internet cafes are open 24 hours a day, and Pei Qian didn't plan to do this.

It's not because the mall will close at night.

Even if the mall is closed, many cinemas in the mall will arrange for midnight, and customers will come in and out at two or three in the morning, but they are not affected by the mall's closure.

It's nothing more than leaving a door for customers, and this is nothing new.

Pei Qian opened this Internet cafe to lose money, of course, he should minimize business hours as much as possible.

If you think about it in reverse, according to the current expenses, Internet cafes must maintain an average attendance rate of at least 60% to make a profit. Pei Qian thinks this should be an unlikely goal.

After all, the flagship store of Moyu Internet Cafe is so popular, and the attendance rate has not reached this data.

Of course, Pei Qian did not fully believe in the data, after all, the data will change.

Pei Qian didn't rush to spread the stall too big at once, but planned to open a new store first to see the situation.

If the loss situation meets expectations, then invest money to open a few more companies before settlement; if you make money for some inexplicable reasons, then find a way to stop the loss immediately.

...

When he arrived at the Handong University store, Pei Qian pulled the computer chair next to Qiao Laoshi and sat down, drinking cocktails while watching Qiao Laoshi play games.

Pei Qian's original intention was to see Qiao Laoshi suffer and add a little fun to his busy work and life.

Qiao Liang felt that he was highly valued and became energetic.

The game's chief designer sat by himself watching me play games, and was ready to listen to my opinions and suggestions at any time. What a proud thing!

Qiao Laoshi is full of fighting spirit.

At this time, Qiao Liang had just finished updating the game and clicked on the update log.

"Huh? The epitaph function has been completed?"

Qiao Liang was very surprised. Mr. Pei quickly solved the problem raised last time, which shows that he really attached great importance to my opinion!

Pei Qian also saw the update log and said with some regret: "The feature of epitaph is available at the beginning of the game, and it should not be played unless you open a new account."

Qiao Liang entered the game: "It doesn't matter, I'm going to play the second week."

Pei Qian: "…"

Damn!

Qiao Laoshi said this sentence as if nothing had happened, but it was like a sharp knife stabbing Mr. Pei in the heart.

Is it okay to go to the second week??

Pei Qian did open the project for a week, but it was only through "Push" and infinite skipping classes. The real game content may have been 30% or 40% experienced.

But Qiao Laoshi is different. He made the game according to the normal process, and he also experienced a major twists and turns in the middle - all the weapons he was good at were cut off by an unscrupulous designer, and he could only adapt to the new weapons from scratch.

In this way, Qiao Laoshi's game progress was still the same as that of President Pei.

This is really awesome...

Pei Qian felt that he was not in a good mood at all, and even had a little self-doubt.

It’s not that he doubted his game level, because Mr. Pei has always known that he is a weak man and has never doubted this.

What he doubted was mainly the difficulty of the game.

It's all like this, but I can't stop Qiao Laoshi from passing the level??

What do you know how much effort I spent on making this game to make the players more difficult!

However, even so, Qiao Laoshi passed the level, which made Pei Qian feel deeply frustrated.

Even the favorite cocktails are no longer delicious.

Fortunately, Qiao Laoshi is about to challenge the second week, and the difficulty of the second week has been significantly improved.

Enter the game.

The cutscene at the beginning is still similar to before. After the opening cg, the camera comes to the initial small village where many villagers who have lost their souls and seven souls wander. In the mass grave near the village, the protagonist lifts up the coffin.

He was regarded as a dead person and woke up and embarked on the road to the underworld.

According to the original design, the player should pick up a broken sword to cut the monsters at this time.

But after this update, there was another breakup.

The protagonist came to the mass grave in front of his grave and saw a very simple tombstone with no words on it.

The protagonist squatted in front of his tombstone, rubbed the rough and simple stone tablet, and whispered in a hoarse voice: "There is no inscription... Since that's the case, just write an epitaph for yourself."

At this time, an input box appears on the screen, and the player freely enters the text, up to ten words.

Qiao Liang scratched his head.

As the person who is most annoying to name, he is facing a very serious challenge at this time.

What kind of epitaph should I write?

Be more optimistic, encourage yourself?

Be more decisive and set off a sad atmosphere?

Or is it a little funny?

I racked my brains to write a few verbal words, but I didn't have this ink, not to mention that Mr. Pei was watching it next to me. The writing was too long and it felt like I was deliberately showing off, which was very inappropriate.

Qiao Liang thought about it and wrote four words: "You can do it."

Just write such a simple sentence to encourage yourself!

After all, this is a very difficult game. After dying, I encourage myself to say "You can" and face the next challenge more confidently.

Another simple cutscene, four ancient characters were engraved on the tombstone as epitaphs, and the game officially began.

"I'm here in the second week!"

Qiao Liang was in high spirits and planned to perform well in front of Mr. Pei.

After all, I have been paying the salary paid by Mr. Pei for so long, and I have to make some progress.

Qiao Liang took out a mourning stick. This was a two-handed weapon he fell when he fought against the black and white impermanence in the scene behind the week. It was a very thick and long stick with many white paper spikes on it.

It is a good heavy weapon with great attack power and also comes with weapon skills. After use, it can cause range damage to the enemies ahead and draw a small number of three souls and seven souls.

"Show your skills in front of Mr. Pei!"

Qiao Liang was full of confidence. After all, he used his own strength to open up the project for a week and had already fought many bosses and had seen all the strong winds and waves.

These little monsters in the Novice Village are no problem at all.

The protagonist rushed up with a mourning stick.

Qiao Liang clearly remembered that the little monsters at the beginning were all silly and squatted in the mass grave and could only resist after being attacked, so he rushed up with confidence.

However, just halfway through, the three little monsters near the mass grave turned around and surrounded him!

Qiao Liang was shocked, but it was too late. He subconsciously rolled over and rolled directly to the monster's blade.

The three little monsters rushed over and each gave the protagonist a knife, and Qiao Liang was killed on the spot.

The picture turned gray, and the epitaph he wrote in the ancient red style appeared in the center.

"You can do it."

No, is the promised epitaph to encourage me?
