Chapter 42: New Changes, New Opportunities
Why would Lawson be so confident that Wallace's burger would be a chain?
Because in his hands, he holds an absolute trump card.
[Items: Kalin Immortal's Immortal Bean (1/2), Edogawa Conan's Prisoner Tracking Glasses*1, Divine Brain Pill*1 (with recipe), Crab Castle Ancestral Secret Recipe*1]
That's right, his trump card is to use the balance money he got from Boris to use the latest props obtained by the system's lottery, which comes from the ancestral secret recipe of the delicious crab castle in the cartoon "SpongeBob SquarePants".
After getting the secret recipe, of course, he tried to make a few delicious crab burgers himself, although he didn't have the cooking skills of SpongeBob SquarePants, and he didn't have the all-important little bit of love, but when he was ready to taste it, he still felt that it was the best burger he had ever tasted, and it almost burned out on his tongue.
He ate several in one go, even if he couldn't hold it anymore, he felt that the burger in his stomach was about to reach the back of his throat, and when he saw the remaining delicious crab burger, he actually had an urge to eat it, which was a little too delicious.
Therefore, with this dependence, Rosen believes that Wallace Burgers will quickly fill the streets of Brooklyn and then all of New York.
"It's just a pity that it's the last chance to draw a lottery in the novice period."
Unable to draw instant combat power, Rosen said that it was impossible not to be disappointed, but the changes after the system upgrade diluted this emotion and made him hurry up to check the new changes.
First of all, the biggest change is undoubtedly the lottery function, which is also the one that he thinks is the most important.
The conditions of the lottery have been changed, from the original real-world money, to illusory prestige.
Prestige, as the name suggests, is the meaning of reputation and prestige, which is the degree of public recognition of an individual, representing an authoritative reputation.
At first, Rosen didn't know much about how to get this so-called reputation point, but after being introduced by the system, he finally understood.
If you want to gain prestige, you must first be famous, whether it is good or notorious, the system will recognize it, that is, Rosen can freely choose his development path, he can become a superhero, punish evil and promote good, fight crime, and be admired by the public.
You can also choose to be an evil villain, do all kinds of evil, and be feared by the public, in short, no matter how he chooses, the system will provide him with corresponding prestige points according to the public's sense of him.
"To be a superhero, or an evil villain?"
Rosen thought about it, there are pros and cons to both, being an evil villain, of course, will gain prestige faster, after all, it is much easier to do bad things than good ones, but at the price, you will be targeted by superheroes and become the target of those guys to fight crime.
What about being a superhero?
He doesn't think it's good, and if he can, Lawson is willing to help some of the closest people around him, but if he is like his good neighbor Spider-Man, or Superman with great love in his heart, he helps the public for free?
He felt that he was not aware enough, and he would definitely not be able to do it.
Therefore, Rosen ruled out these two options and chose the third path, which is to do business.
Sometimes being a businessman doesn't have to get less attention than superheroes, like Musk in his previous life, who was simply a regular in the newspaper.
There is also a king who understands, and even the president has been a legend, which is simply a legend among businessmen.
Even in the world he is in now, isn't Tony Stark famous, and even before he became Iron Man, he was already known to the public.
Rosen has a plan, he plans to run the Wallace burger restaurant first, and after the franchise begins to take shape, he will try to invest in a few movies and be the leading actor a few times, of course, he doesn't want to make much money in the movie, the main thing is to be famous.
This will continue until he has enough power to protect himself before he can consider making other changes and trying to gain reputation more efficiently.
Of course, in addition to the changes to the raffle conditions, the raffle method has also changed, most notably the exclusion of low-level prizes of white and green quality from the prize pool.
Moreover, it is possible to designate a certain type of prize by investing different numbers of reputation points.
To put it simply, the prize pool is divided into two categories, one is animated props and the other is animated characters.
However, if you want to draw the latter, you need a very high reputation value, almost dozens of times more than animated props.
Although this is a matter of course, it still makes Lawson have a toothache when he sees it.
In addition to these changes, the system also has a brand new feature, which is the Astral Gate.
The Astral Gate has only one function, which is to help him travel to other worlds, and then travel back to the current world.
As for how to open it, the system did not say it explicitly, it seems that he needs to slowly explore it himself.
There were many thoughts in his mind, but in reality, it was only a moment, and he glanced around the room, and Sweet and the others were still discussing whether the Wallace chain had a head.
"Kandel, Wallace's business will be left to you."
Calling the name of the only woman present, Rosen continued: "I will give you the contact information of my manager Han, and he will tell you how to do this business and how to have more franchises." ”
When he was a part-time worker in his previous life, he also thought about quitting his job and starting his own business to open a small store, so he also learned about the business of franchise stores.
But I don't know, I was shocked when I asked, there are so many twists and turns in opening a franchise store, ordinary people want to make money, it is quite difficult, not to mention the difficulty of climbing to the sky, it is almost the same as mountaineering.
"Why me?"
Kandell expressed surprise, she didn't expect to take on this heavy responsibility herself, "Why not Sweet, not Carl, and Smock?" ”
"Smok, you say, the fat dead man?"
Carl was the first to answer, "The last time I went to Wallace, he ordered a full seven set meals, a few of which were for two, and even one for three!" If Smock is really the manager of the burger restaurant, I'm afraid he can't eat a burger restaurant alone! ”
Karl's words caused everyone to burst into laughter, and the room was filled with cheerful air.
Smok didn't care, he slapped his belly with his big hand, and laughed along.
"Alright, Kandel, there's no need to discuss this."
Don't look at Rosen seems to be willing to give the few people in front of him a chance to discuss, in fact, it's just to let these guys have some sense of participation, just like the American election, ordinary people can indeed vote, but whether it's useful or not, it's really hard to say.
And Grove Street is the same, Sweet and the others can indeed put forward ideas, but whether to adopt them or not, and how to implement them, depends on Rosen's own attitude.
