Chapter 204: Chapter 199: Everything is Ready

Chapter 199: Ready for Anything

As the largest emerging car market in the world, the number of cars in Flame Nation is growing at a ferocious rate. Flame Nation’s accelerated economic growth has made its mark on the world stage. As the number of affluent individuals in Flame Nation increases, high-end and luxury vehicles from around the world have flagged Flame Nation’s market as a critical target. Importantly, initially high tariffs in Flame Nation made the prices of these high-end and luxury cars extremely expensive when entering the Flame Nation market.

With its booming economy, Flame Nation’s government has significantly reduced its tariffs on these cars, although the prices of these luxury vehicles have not been lowered, thus making their sales in Flame Nation highly profitable. It is clear that Dura has set its sights on the Flame Nation market, hence its decision to hold the new product launch in Flame Nation.

Looking at the schedule of the press conference sent over by Olivia Thatcher, the new car was named the Dura Mur99, limited to just ninety-nine units worldwide. Of these, Flame Nation has been allocated fifteen units, an unusually large quota. Considering the number of countries worldwide, the fact that Flame Nation received such a high allocation clearly shows how much Dura values the Flame Nation market.

Wealthy people tend to have this mindset, the more limited and rarer it is, the more they buy.

“Remind me when the time comes. If nothing comes up, I’ll go,” Finn Lewis said thoughtfully, “Right, let’s take a trip over to Jay Sommer’s place.”

The reason why i,VY decided to host the press conference in Celeston City instead of at their headquarters is that Jay Sommer has already set up a company in Celeston City. The registered capital isn’t much, just 20 million Flame Nation coins, but they’ve rented an entire office building in the D & J High -Tech Development Zone in Celeston City.

Though the office building wasn’t very tall and the location was slightly out of the way, it didn’t lack in terms of facilities. Blue Wind Technology Company was plastered on the sign outside. Checking the sign, Finn Lewis drove in. As Finn Lewis parked his car, Jay Sommer was already downstairs waiting for him.

“Young Master,” Jay Sommer said respectfully as he saw Finn Lewis get out of the car.

“Hmm, how’s everything going?” Today, while the news conference was being held, they were also testing a new gaming client over here.

“No issues. Our server capacity can handle between 250,000 and 300,000 users at the most, with 200,000 not being the limit. However, we only plan for one server to accommodate 200,000 players for now,” replied Jay Sommer immediately. Dressed in smart-office attire, Jay Sommer appeared like a capable and elite woman, no one would suspect that she was a robotic assistant.

Finn Lewis nodded and said: “Do we still need more Photon computers?”

“Yes. Given the current situation, ten Photon computers are not enough to accommodate the estimated number of players. If we consider one server for every 200,000 players, ten server groups will only accommodate two million players. Of course, twenty thousand is the number of players who can be online at the same time. On the flip side, it can accommodate double the number, forty thousand per server, which would only be a total of four million,” replied Jay Sommer with a nod.

“Okay, I will continue to supply them, but the exchange points for a Photon computer is 9,000 points. I need to earn back 90 million to afford that, what do you think is our timeline to make back that 90 million?” Finn Lewis asked, a little worried. He was considering a time-based fee, with the accomplishment of NetEase there wouldn’t be an issue of distribution.

“We can adopt a double charging mode.” Jay Sommer immediately suggested.

“You’re not suggesting charging both for items and time, are you?” Finn Lewis asked, a bit frustrated.

“Yes.” Jay Sommer confirmed with a quick nod, and then continued: “However, the item charge I’m proposing is somewhat different from the current game item charges. Firstly, all our items will be available in the in-game system store. There won’t be anything like an item mall. Some objects, which are rare but do not affect attribute calculation, will be priced very high in these system stores. The only exchange we will be establishing is that Flame Nation coins can be converted to in-game gold coins.”

“Won’t this cause a large influx and devaluation of these gold coins?” Finn Lewis asked, struggling to suppress his anxiety. In-game gold coins are basically currency within the game. If there’s a direct exchange with Flame

Nation coins, it would naturally cause a significant devaluation of these coins. If the in-game gold coins depreciate, the exchange rate of the system exchange’s Flame Nation coins to gold coins could not be adjusted randomly.

“No, Young Master, you need to trust our dynamic balance system to balance the data inside the game; a regular player will only earn enough gold coins to cover daily expenses without any surplus. Players who exchange Flame Nation coins for gold will eventually spend these coins at the system store,” Jay Sommer said with a smile.

“Alright, I believe in this aspect.” Finn Lewis finally believed it. He has a secret weapon, a powerful dynamic balancing system, obviously calculating the data balance in these games is simple for it.

“What do you think of those old ‘World’ players?” Finn Lewis pondered and then asked. There are many old ‘World’ players, of course, if treating the current ‘World’ as a new game is feasible. However, since it has been advertised, naturally, they can’t ignore these players.

“Just as you said, put these players in a server. However, if they chose to enter a new game, they must make some sacrifices, for instance, their current equipment and so forth. It will be replaced with replica equipment of the same value, but definitely not the top level ones.” Jay Sommer replied.

“Fair enough, let them choose themselves. But I will ask to release an announcement stating that the old ‘World’ will not shut down. As long as the number of players doesn’t drop below 10,000, we won’t shut the server down,” Finn Lewis pondered and replied.

“Yes, Young Master.” Jay Sommer nodded and responded.

“Let’s go have a look upstairs,” Finn Lewis nodded and followed Jay Sommer to visit the Photon computer. The Photon computer is not too big, at least only half the size of a current personal computer. These Photon computers had been completely disguised as servers, placed in a few corners of the entire server room. From the outside, you can’t tell these are Photon computers. The servers in these rooms were bought for cover-up, and of course, certain modifications made to them to enhance their performance.

There’s not much to see actually. After leaving the machine room, Finn Lewis softly asked, “Do you need more people here?”

“Not for now,” Jay Sommer smiled and replied. Finn Lewis nodded, currently he only has over thirty thousand points, which’s not enough. But the good news is that the cost of acquiring VVY is about 80 billion federal coins. It is not known if this investment will be deducted directly with the rise in stock market value.

After the visit, Finn Lewis rested assured. The situation here no longer requires his management. Additionally, Finn Lewis has a good understanding of the capabilities of the T2500 intelligent robot. When he first arrived, he encountered several employees. Blue Wind Technology company just established, but Jay Sommer had gained full authority amongst the employees.

The entire company management was well-ordered, at least it left Finn Lewis stunned. He thought he could only be a behind-the-scenes boss or a hands-off shopkeeper. To achieve such management skills as this would not be easy for him. At least without a few years of ups and downs in the company, it would be difficult to achieve such a management level.

Fortunately, Finn Lewis does not need to manage these people, only needs to manage these intelligent robots. After leaving Jay Sommer’s company, Finn Lewis made another call to Yuri Johnson, discussed the business situation here with him, and also communicated the way to deal with the old ‘World’ players.

Regarding the fee-for-service method of the new ‘World’, Yuri Johnson has some misgivings. But after listening to Finn Lewis’s assurance that the game’s gold coins will not flood, Yuri Johnson was relieved. But think about it, Yuri Johnson also felt relieved, although double charging is easy to let the players criticize, but it actually is not a big deal. Firstly, Flame Nation coins can be converted into gold coins, but the things that need a large amount of gold coins consumed in the game are not those precious equipment.

On the other hand, it’s on player modeling, as well as some fashion items, mounts, and such items that do not increase combat power. In plain words, just like the difference between luxury items and ordinary brands in reality, ordinary players can play well without investing these coins. The equipments would not be too far different and if the wealthy want to buy something different, that’s also fine, it anyway doesn’t increase your battle attributes.

It does not disrupt the balance of the game but gives the wealthy a way to spend money. Just like how it was initially in Monster World, wealthy people wanted to spend money but had no place to do so, but they were short of gold coins. So what to do? The only option was to get it from gold coin studios. Once these studios increased, it significantly affected the balance of the game.

Now it’s different. If you want to spend money, you can directly exchange

Flame Nation coins. But if you want to buy equipment, then sorry, because the game is set up like Monster World. Although the equipment is not loot-bound, the trade will face a consequence, which is after the trade, the equipment attributes inevitably drop by 10% to 30%.

Using the language in the game. when you pick un this equipment. You are

recognized by the spirit in this equipment. But once forced to trade, it will damage the equipment spirit, leading to a decrease in equipment attributes. Although it’s not loot-bound, this trick is much harsher than loot-bound.
