Chapter 4 The First Victim(1/2)
Author: Qingshan Chuzui
Lu Zhixing has always been a very active person. Once he decides to do something, he will definitely take the initiative instead of passively waiting for opportunities.
But in this situation, how can we take the initiative?
Game channel resources are a very rare and precious resource, both in the previous life and in this world. Companies that control the channels can almost make money while lying down. It is obviously impossible for Lu Zhixing to have this kind of resource.
After thinking for a moment, he opened a video website and searched for game complaints programs, and then found a few big UP owners with more than a million followers.
This also includes Xu Jing, whom he met by chance in the park that night.
Seeing Xu Jing's account, Lu Zhixing's heart skipped a beat, and he almost clicked on her live broadcast replay with the determination to die.
Sure enough, there is the park section...
However, after experiencing the embarrassment of digging his toes into the ground, Lu Zhixing discovered that this episode did not attract much attention. It only became a less popular meme among Xu Jing's fan group and did not break the circle in any way.
Discussion signs.
Moreover, the scene at that time was relatively dark, and the pixels of Xu Jing's mobile phone camera were not particularly high, so no one should have been able to recognize that it was Lu Zhixing.
"It's okay, it's okay, I won't die in society."
Lu Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief and decided to find a way to keep distance from this anchor in the future.
It would be best if we never meet again in this life.
After such screening, Lu Zhixing quickly selected an initial list of victims from these UP owners with millions of fans.
Then, he started looking for the contact information of these people.
Basically, the UP owner’s homepage has contact information for business cooperation, but Lu Zhixing obviously has no money to engage in any business cooperation with them.
What he is looking for is the fan base.
Soon, Lu Zhixing searched through the profiles and updates of these UP owners, and successfully found the fan groups of three of them, and joined them pretending to be fans.
Open three chat windows and wait patiently for the UP owner to appear.
Although there are many fish in the school, there is no point in fishing for others. You still have to wait for the big fish, the UP owner, to surface, and then decide the outcome with one rod.
After waiting patiently for several hours, Lu Zhixing stayed there from noon to evening, and finally saw the UP owner popping up in one of the groups.
The ID of this UP owner is "Wandering Cowherd", his real name is Liu Liang, and he is affectionately called "Brother Niu" by fans. He has more than 1.3 million fans on the Changteng Video website, and he is considered a relatively influential one.
Well-known game area UP master.
Lu Zhixing was very satisfied.
Okay, the first victim is you!
…
As soon as Liu Liang bubbled up, the group immediately became lively.
"Hey, are you going to start the live broadcast?"
"What game is Brother Niu playing today?"
"Hurry up, hurry up, I've soaked the noodles and I'm just waiting for your live broadcast to cook!"
Most UP owners mainly focus on making videos, and live broadcasts are often not very popular, but Liu Liang seems to be an anomaly. His live broadcasts are also quite popular, and they often rank among the top ten in the live broadcast section of Changteng Video.
This is more in line with Lu Zhixing's image of the perfect victim.
The owner of the dog group (the wandering cowherd): "I don't know. I'll go to the official platform to see if there are any new games when the show starts soon. I'll randomly pick a lucky game and turn over the cards."
That's it now!
Lu Zhixing decisively seized the opportunity, and at the moment he spoke, he also said what he had already typed in the chat box.
This will ensure that the UP owner can see it to the greatest extent.
"Brother Niu, I highly recommend the new game "Zen"! This game is very fun and philosophical, and the puzzle content is also very rich. After playing it, you can at least earn a video with millions of views!"
In fact, in order to ensure that the UP owner can see it, it is best to post the same message several times. However, it is illegal to swipe the screen in most groups, and it can easily be counterproductive, so Lu Zhixing only posted it once, and then he was patient.
wait.
Fortunately, this sentence was not buried in the chatter of group friends, but successfully took away the topic.
"Zen? Is this the name of the game? Why have I never heard of it before?"
"It's an independent game."
"Philosophical? Rich in puzzle content? What type of game is it? Art? Escape room?"
Many people in the group were intrigued.
After a while, Liu Liang spoke: "OK, I've written it down, I'll start playing it later."
Not bad, he is still a very popular UP owner.
In fact, these words of Lu Zhixing have been carefully considered. "Fun" represents the fun of the game, "philosophical" represents the spiritual connotation of the game, and "puzzle-solving content" can easily stimulate the desire of UP owners to challenge.
The most important thing is the last sentence, "At least one video can earn millions of views." This is simply an irresistible temptation for UP owners!
Of course, the real situation of this game...
All I can say is that it’s best not to believe what water friends in the group say, otherwise the anchor will realize that people’s hearts are sinister.
Lu Zhixing opened the live broadcast room on his computer and waited patiently.
Whether this game will be popular or not depends on this!
…
"Moo?
"Brothers, let me do it.
"Today I'm going to find some new games to play. Let me take a look. Well, let's play the game recommended by the group of friends first. What is it called?
"Oh yes, Zen."
Liu Liang is on the air, and his voice is quite distinctive and recognizable, which is a very important bonus for UP hosts and anchors. In addition, of course, knowing how to create program effects and a unique sense of humor are also
Essential.
Audiences came one after another, the popularity of the live broadcast room quickly began to increase steadily, and various gifts began to be received.
Under the attention of fans, Liu Liang opened the official game store and searched for the keyword "Zen".
"Huh? This game doesn't even have reviews!
"It's a new game, but it's too new!"
He was a little confused, so he turned to the game introduction hoping to get more information, but this did not solve his doubts, but made him even more confused.
"All conditioned phenomena are like bubbles in a dream, like dew or lightning. Should we observe them like this?"
"Good guy, he's quite good at making lies.
"OK, let's download it and play it. According to the group friends, this game is full of philosophy and has rich puzzle content. I hope the group members are not lying."
There are two versions of the game, the PC version and the VR version, priced at 5 yuan and 10 yuan respectively.
Of course, Lu Zhixing also referred to the average price of games in the world before determining the selling price. The price of a cheating game like this must not be too high. If it exceeds 30, it is an obvious grab and cannot achieve the purpose of small profits but quick turnover.
The price of 1 yuan is too low. If the game really becomes popular, it will seriously affect profits.
Taken together, the price of 5 yuan is just right.
The VR version sells for 10 yuan, on the one hand because the VR version has more detailed graphics, and on the other hand because the pricing of VR games in this world is generally high.
After all, those who can afford the fifth-generation VR helmet are rich people, and they are not short of money.
Of course Liu Liang has a fifth-generation VR game helmet, but the live broadcast technology of the fifth-generation VR helmet is not yet mature and the game library is not rich, so his usual live broadcasts mainly focus on PC games.
Soon, the game will be downloaded.
At this time, Liu Liang obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem and did not raise alarm because of the small capacity of the game. This is normal, after all, the capacity of most independent games is very small.
Click "Start Game".
The screen went dark, but quickly lit up again. There was no logo or title screen, and Liu Liang found himself directly entering the game.
This game is from a first-person perspective. When you look down, you can see the prison uniform on your body, and when you look up, you can see the cold iron windows.
The cold moonlight shone in through the iron window, reflecting a small square on the ground, and the shadows of the iron fences were clearly visible.
"ah?"
Liu Liang was stunned. His first reaction was that he had entered the wrong game.
Isn't the name of this game called "Zen"? Why did it become tears behind bars?
Cut out the desktop and confirm the name of the program.
That's right, it's "Zen"?
Liu Liang had a vague guess that he seemed to have been fooled...
However, as a well-trained anchor and UP host, he will certainly not deny a game so easily. He must at least experience it to see if there is any mystery in the game.
To be continued...
