Chapter 8 Do you know that you are a member of the second middle school family?
"Looks like I'm not here at the right time, you're busy right now. Gao Qiao touched the back of his head embarrassedly.
"No, no, please come in. The female boss hurriedly said.
In the surprised eyes of the junior high school students queuing outside, Gao Qiao walked into the café in embarrassment. The café was deserted the last time I visited, but today it looks like a different place. There were uniformed, noisy children everywhere, and from time to time you could hear the shouts of "My turn, draw cards" from the crowded area.
"This is ......" Gao Qiao couldn't believe what he was seeing.
"They're all here for the duel monster card game you've designed. I really didn't expect this game to be so popular with children. I thought it was a waste for you to print so many cards, but now it's completely underdivided......," the landlady said embarrassedly, "It's thanks to you that the business is so good." Ah, by the way, all the money from the cards is here, I'm going to get it to you......"
Originally, the female boss didn't plan to charge for card games, but if she didn't charge a fee, the coffee shop would be crowded with junior high school students who didn't want to spend money, so she wouldn't be able to do business. Therefore, it had to be changed to a charging model.
But even if it is charged, it is only ten dollars a plate, and it comes with a small plate of biscuits or cake and drink. In fact, it is equivalent to selling food, and it is not black at all.
These profits are all brought about by the games designed by Mr. Gao, and the female boss would rather give these profits to Mr. Gao than collect them herself.
First, because Huaxia is very strict in the law on infringement penalties, if there is an act of infringing profits, not only will you pay several times the income, but you will also be sentenced, and your credit will be stained for a lifetime.
The second is because she is a fan of Gao Qiao, as a die-hard fan, how can she sell the big works she admires for money!
"No, not really. Your food also needs a cost, if you give me all the money, then you won't lose money?" Gao Qiao hurriedly excused himself.
Although he is the tail of the crane in the serialized writer of "Weekly Shangjing Boy", his annual salary is also two or three hundred thousand yuan a year, which is not rich in a place like Shangjing, but it can also be said that it is good. The female boss said that he had made some money, but he thought it was only a few thousand yuan.
"Take it!"
"I really don't need to!"
The employees in the store were stupid to watch two people who were both fifty or sixty years old pushing around with tens of thousands of dollars in boxes. The world has changed, and everyone is starting to dislike money?!
"If you don't accept it, I won't help you collect the number of jù!"
"Alright, alright, my men. But the cost of making zuò pastries and tea drinks, you must deduct it. Gao Qiao was stunned. Resignedly, I took the box, and it felt heavy to enter.
"Good. The female boss smiled like a flower, Gao Qiao was stunned for a moment, and forgot why the box was so heavy.
……
"Boss, boss, pay for table one!"
"Add water to table five!"
The noisy voices of the bear children suddenly dragged Gao Qiao back to the ground, he was a little embarrassed, the store was so busy, and he was still chatting with the boss. He hurriedly said, "I'd better wait for fewer people to disturb you." ”
"What's so embarrassing about that!"
"It's okay, it's okay, I can do it alone. It's good to let me see it alone, it's strange that I'm not used to having someone with me. Gao Qiao said.
"That's really embarrassing. The landlady said apologetically.
If Zhang Huaishan was here, he would definitely complain about Gao Qiao's lonely life. Gao Qiao is unconscious, and the long hours of staying at home to create have caused him to suffer from a certain social barrier, and when facing his female readers, he often has a feeling that he does not know where to put his hands.
The female boss went to busy her, and Gao Qiao felt much more comfortable. He placed the boxes on the counter haphazardly and walked towards the most crowded area.
A few junior high school students saw Gao Qiao, but they didn't care. Although the adult guests in the café walked quite a bit, there were still a few.
Bo Ming was holding a juice glass and watching others duel. His ten dollars had already been spent on the game, but he was still reluctant to go. He would rather stay here and watch others play than go home.
"This classmate, do you think this game is fun?" Gao Qiao patted Bo Ming's shoulder and said.
"This uncle, who are you?" Bo Ming took two steps back vigilantly, the uncle in front of him looked like a tiger with a scumbag and a scumbag, and he was not a good person at first glance!
"Ahem...... I'm not a bad person. ”
"Bad people say he's not a bad guy. And I'm fourteen years old, so I'm not a child anymore!" Bo Ming retorted.
"Actually, my uncle is a friend who designed this card game, and he specially asked me to listen to your advice, so that he can print more cards so that everyone can play this game. ”
"Really, uncle, don't lie to me. Bo Ming's eyes lit up and said.
"Ahem, of course......" Although I don't know if I can get out of the periphery after the halving. But Gao Qiao plans to print dozens of sets of cards even if he smashes the pot and sells iron.
"Well, a few words with you anyway won't be missing two pieces of meat. In order to be able to play new cards, I trust you. By the way, did that friend of yours say that he can't get a god card?"
"This ......" Gao Qiao's face suddenly changed, and he said in a very serious and stern tone: "After all, the God Card is a fantasy and rare card, sealed with evil power, and mortals cannot control it. So you can't just make it. ”
"Uncle, you're such a middle two, does your mother know?" Bo Ming complained with a disdainful expression.
"Ahem...... "Ahem" was actually complained about by junior high school students, what a shame! Gao Qiao's heart seemed to have tens of thousands of grass and mud horses galloping by. He turned his back, took a few deep breaths, and barely calmed down before turning around.
"So let me change the subject, do you like the game of dueling monster cards?" Gao Qiao barely showed a "kind" smile.
"Of course, although this is my first time playing today, I have already heard from my friends about this game. There are a lot of people in our grade who play this game!"
As soon as Bo Ming talked about the topic he was interested in, his eyes sparkled: "After the "Weekly Shangjing Boy" came out, it was even more amazing, and other schools also rushed over when they heard about it, after all, everyone has seen "Shangjing Boy"! Being able to play card games in comics is a very powerful thing!"
"Did other schools hear about it?"
"Yes, because a lot of people have scarves!" Bo Ming took out his mobile phone and showed Gao Qiao the picture inside. There are many people wearing the same school uniforms, holding monster duel cards and posing in a V-shape.

……
Almost a lot of scarves have videos and a lot of comments. There are a dozen few, and there are hundreds. Especially the one that shows affection, there are more than 1,000 comments and retweets!
Looking at the forwarded comments, most of them were posted by post-00s couples, but they didn't care what game they were holding.
And from the time he gave the boss lady the card to now, it has only been four or five days.
In just four or five days, the Duel Monster card game actually swept through Shangjing Middle School.
In this era of many mobile games, online games, and even console games. A card game, without publicity or marketing, can do this, if it weren't for the facts, Gao Qiao wouldn't believe it at all.
It's scary, but just a little change in the comics can attract so much popularity?
"Uncle, I read that in the comics, you can form your own card deck. If only we could use cards and make our own decks. Can you tell that friend of yours?" Bo Ming said.
“…… Well, if a game company is willing to do it, it should be easy to do. Speaking of this topic, Gao Qiao's originally somewhat better mood began to go down.
"Then you should quickly ask your friends to contact the manufacturer, if someone comes out, I will definitely buy it!" Bo Ming said.
"That's probably not possible, though. Gao Qiao said lonely.
"Ah, why?"
"The comic "Wanyou King" is about to be cut in half. Gao Qiao sighed. "No company will produce a comic strip of merchandise. ”
"Poof, cough cough......" Bo Ming squirted a mouthful of juice and said loudly: "Are you serious? "Wanyou King" is such a beautiful comic to be cut in half, is the boss of "Shangjing Boy" always a fool?"
"Bo Ming, what are you talking about?"
"What?"
Bo Ming's voice was so loud that it attracted the other students as well.
"This uncle said that "Wanyou King" is going to be cut in half!" Bo Ming said exaggeratedly.
"Liar!"
"How can it be cut in half to create such a fun game comic!"
"yes, I don't believe there are such stupid people in the world!"
"This uncle must have lied to you, by the way, who is this uncle. I just dangled it here, it looked disgusting. ”
"I've heard that Lolicon and perverts are like that!"
Gao Qiao, who was lying on the gun inexplicably, was in tears, didn't I just go out and didn't shave, do you want to do this......
