Chapter 121: Election Methods
"Spike Security is going to use the profits from this City Trade to enhance school security and increase school security?" Today, the community opposite the city hall has finally been completed and put into use, in addition to getting a house agreed at that time, Youyou Jingran also bought an additional house, which is temporarily designated as a temporary base for the security company.
The faΓ§ade room opposite the city hall was converted into a shop to sell the temporary properties of the trigger study, as well as various one-time consumable equipment after the renovation. For example, refueled grenades, special armor-piercing bullets, and modified mechas, boots that can speed up mutants, and so on. This is also the first industry where a scavenger security company has opened its doors.
"What's so strange about this, I originally thought that the Spike Security Company was taking such a big risk to trade between cities, and it really took a fancy to the huge profits in the first trade. It turned out that their purpose was to campaign. Yoyo sighed quietly and said, as if he was a little annoyed that he didn't see the ultimate purpose of the Spike Security Company.
Although Yoyo Jingran is a weak woman in terms of fighting, when it comes to business, Yoyo Jingran, who has been exposed to it since childhood, can throw out more than a dozen streets of scavengers. Since Yoyo quietly accepted all the business aspects of the scavenger security company. Scavenger security companies are understaffed, but their business profits are three times as high as before.
"For campaigning?" The scavenger frowned and looked at Youyou Jingran, as if he hadn't figured out the meaning of Youyou's words for a while.
"Of course, it's for the campaign, do you really think that the Spike Security Company is for the next generation of Hope City and for social good, as they claim?" Youyou quietly rolled his eyes, and saw that the Taoist was looking at an idiot. The scavenger scratched his scalp a little embarrassedly, and for a while he still didn't understand.
"Recently, the matter of moving the real school into the virtual world is about to be decided. At this time, there will be a large influx of students into Hope City, and the parents whose children will definitely come in as well. Even if parents are too busy in reality. But at least a babysitter will be brought in.
But no matter what, children must have a hukou if they want to go to school. All player profiles in Destiny are brand new, and school-going kids can't have their own hukou yet. So his parents have to come in and apply for the in-game hukou, and then choose a school for their child.
Citizens who have a Hope City hukou, especially those who have a student's parent hukou, have the right to vote for the future leaders of Hope City. It's like a reality where outsiders settle down locally. They have the same rights and obligations as local citizens.
The Spike Security Company announced that it would strengthen the school's security facilities and increase the school's security capacity. And all the 5 million profits from the first trade between the two cities were taken out at once. If you are a parent of a child, when the election is held in the future. It's to vote for a stranger who doesn't know anything. Or vote for a representative of a spiked security company that thinks about the safety of their children? Yoyo quietly explained.
"Of course, I voted for the representatives of the Spike Security Company, and if nothing else, I should vote for them just for their pro bono investment in school security." The scavenger spoke at once, and there seemed to be nothing to hesitate to ponder.
"Isn't that nice, and the Spike Security Company does it, and it can also give people a hint. Before they came to power, they had begun to pay attention to the personal safety of school students. Then there will be a tendency in the minds of the players. If the people who choose the Spike Security Company are in power, then the people from the Spike Security Company will also increase their investment in the security of the entire Hope City after they come to power.
What are the main concerns of players right now? Since the player found out that they can also be killed in Hope City. will also be robbed later. The safety of Hope City has been a growing concern. Players who fight in the wild PK or something can tolerate it. But they absolutely did not want to return to the city, and their personal safety was not guaranteed. The Spike Security Company took a fancy to this, so this time it took out so much money to donate to the school, which was to send another signal to all the citizens of Hope City.
If they are in power in Hope City, security concerns will be a signal of the direction of their policies. As long as it's not those who are inherently violent. Or someone who wants to do something illegal in Hope City, as an ordinary citizen of Hope City. Would you elect such a representative who cares about the safety of Hope City as the leader of Hope City? β
"It's true, but aren't they afraid to imitate it by doing so?" Gradually, the scavenger understood something.
"Imitation? How to imitate? This advertisement and hints cannot be imitated, first of all, the Spike Security Company has already earned enough eyeballs when it shouts a high price to buy the route to Gangnam City in the hands of an explorer. Then the first caravan of Hope City was organized with great fanfare, and the number of guards alone reached 300 people. This in turn has earned more attention from the city's citizens. After returning to the city this time, they broke out several materials that were rare in Hope City. But in Gangnamjo, it is the profit of ordinary materials.
Now I'm sure the whole of Hope City is talking about Spike Security. At this time, even if other security companies jump out and say that they will donate 10 million, or even 20 million, to the school, it will not reach the strength of the Spike Security Company's propaganda and a sense of trust for players. Because the Spike Security Company invested the profits of the commercial trade between the two cities this time.
This gives the impression that spiky security companies are making profits from other cities and giving back to Hope City. And now the security company has jumped out to donate money and wants to spread the word. His money was earned from Hope City, or maybe it was invested in reality. This will invisibly form a psychological gap. Make the player feel that the Spike Security Company has the strength to make money from other cities. And the security company that jumped out can only be in front of its own door, or it can only rely on the strong capital in reality.
So these people if they imitate the methods of spiked security companies for publicity. Not only will it not rob the citizens of Hope City of Hope from their support for Spike Security, but it will even make them even more determined in their support. Chinese people have a hatred of the rich, and they always feel that the rich people's money comes from unexplained. Either the government and business colluded, or it was obtained by opportunism. In this way, other security companies invest more money in their own publicity. The more it gives the player a sense of hatred and boredom.
Although the money invested by the Spike Security Company is only 5 million, it may not be the most donated by the security company in the future in order to elect for the leadership of Hope City. But it's earned by its own real skills. The whole process of making money is transparent, and there are so many casualties for this donation to the spiked security company. If it's your choice. Do you choose someone who is like a nouveau riche, or do you choose this kind of person who makes money on his own ability, and gives back to the society regardless of personal gains and losses? β
"So, this time the Spur Security Company's election is going to be nine out of ten?" The scavenger didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns in a seemingly ordinary donation. This makes the scavenger have to sigh at the strength of the thinking ability of politicians. Anyway, the scavengers couldn't think of such interlocking campaign propaganda.
"If nothing else. In the future, the leaders of Hope City will definitely have representatives of the Spike Security Company, and they will definitely be very high in the ranking. You said you were going to help the Spikes security company campaign. How's this going? It's not too late to invest in it. Waiting for someone to sit in a secure position before you invest, it will be a bit of a stutter. After all, there are many people who put the icing on the cake, but there are very few who give charcoal in the snow. The latter is much more important than the former. β
"That's exactly what I want to tell you. People spur security companies have big businesses, and we don't have the qualifications to wave flags and shout for them to get votes. Now the relationship is not bad, it is all based on the previous cooperation, and I helped them get the tap water purification technology. The scavenger said with a bit of a headache. As for how to help the Spikes security company run for office, so that they can take care of their own interests after coming to power, the scavengers can't think of a good way to break their heads.
"We don't have much of an impact on Hope City. It's really not possible to support the campaign directly. Since it can't be done politically, let's support it commercially. You said quietly.
"Commercially supported?" The scavenger was stunned for a moment, and looked at Youyou quietly in confusion.
"Supporting us politically is not qualified, at least not yet. In that case, let's support it commercially as we did before. For example, the first time you made a move to transform the energy furnace of the Spike Security Company. And you help them get the art of purifying the tap water. These are all commercial supports.
The duration of the temporary attribute has now reached 2 hours. This is also the maximum duration that you have discussed in the first place. If the time is extended, players can continue to sleep and hang up, and use temporary attributes as permanent attributes. And because of the plan you made before, the mechanics who imitated your temporary attribute manufacturing routes are almost all about to be tortured and crazy. You quietly looked at the scavenger from head to toe, as if trying to find out what the scavenger had come up with this idea.
"You want to invest this technique in Spike Security? This is our core skill. The hairy scavenger, who was quietly watched, had a look of embarrassment on his face.
"The increase in temporary attributes is not as good as the combat power that the best equipment directly provides to the player. But it is already an indispensable boost for players now. Players have become accustomed to killing monsters after applying temporary attributes. Without temporary attributes, they will feel uncomfortable.
And as one of the three major security companies in Hope City, the Spike Security Company. They must have their own mechanics working on this improvised property crafting. And the consumption of temporary attributes is definitely huge. However, their skills must have been deceived according to your previous plans.
It is no longer possible to find a way to develop permanent stat enhancements. Unless they're determined to tear everything down and start over. But this is obviously impossible. You didn't release the news of the permanent stat increase.
Maybe most mechanics who study temporary stats now feel that equipment stats can only be temporarily improved. and cannot be permanently promoted. In this case, take out the skill of permanently improving the attribute of the equipment to sponsor the Spike Security Company, which is the skill they need the most. We get the most out of our relationship with them. β
"But if we give them the technique of permanent attribute improvement, if they launch a permanent attribute boost, all the foundation we laid before will be gone." The scavenger frowned.
"Permanent stat boosts have a very small chance of being researched by other players. But it's not out of the question. With the popularity of the Destiny game, more and more players are pouring into this game. The mechanics who come in the future may not necessarily follow the script you have arranged. so that you can all bring them to a dead end.
So the more time passes, the more the player learns about the detailed properties of the various materials in the game. The chance of a permanent stat-boosted technique being exposed is increasing. Rather than waiting for this technique to depreciate after it is exposed, it is better to take it out and trade it in advance. And even if the Spike Security Company gets this kind of technique, they will definitely not launch a permanent attribute boost for a while ago.
After all, the income from this is a lot for us. And although it is tempting for them, it has an advantage over other security companies compared to owning this technology alone. Stealth increase in combat effectiveness and savings in the production of temporary attribute materials for the use of large amounts of materials for security company members. They value the interests of the latter more. Maybe when they buy this technique, they will ask us to keep it a secret for the time being.
And the technique of permanent stat enhancement is a bit of a chicken for us. We don't have enough materials to support the commercialization of this permanent property. Now players are more accustomed to trading directly with gold coins. Instead of exchanging materials for something you want, or exchanging merit points for them. The extra formalities in the middle make players very disgusted. So we can talk to Spike Security at the time of the deal. If one day they commercialize this technology, we have to take a share of the profits. β
"Choosing to trade like this can really maximize the profit of this technique. is worthy of a talented girl, why did I not think of such a means of operation before. The Kan Tu next to him looked at you with admiration and said quietly.
"That's because you're not paying attention to it at all." Youyou quietly glared at Kantu, but was praised by Kantu, who was also business-minded, and Youyou's eyes couldn't help but show a hint of pride.
"Then let's trade, you can talk about this matter." The scavenger does not procrastinate, and directly decides. (To be continued......)
