Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch Chapter 88 – The Beginning of the Cycle

Chapter 88: Chapter 87: The Beginning of the Cycle

Under Super Tomato’s careful editing and excellent choice of music, the entire video is of the highest quality.

He successfully stirred the emotions of all the viewers, provoking numerous compliments and resonating with the audience.

The number of comments and views skyrocketed. In just two hours, the video climbed to the top three of Little Video Station’s 24-hour popularity chart.

Moreover, it was only the afternoon, and the video still had great potential for further growth. After dinner, it would almost certainly reach the top of the chart.

The heat even spread beyond Little Video Station, creating massive waves on the entire Internet.

In the evening, after dinner, Lincoln and Mavis curled up together on the double sofa, watching television.

Lincoln, unusually, was watching a romance-themed variety show, with Mavis curled up against him, watching with great interest.

It wasn’t that Lincoln’s taste had changed, but the show was full of hilarious moments. They whimsically sent men and women to a deserted island to be paired up for a date.

The most outrageous thing was that they started with five men and four women, clearly intending to stir up some drama.

Moreover, the program group kept creating amusing situations, making Lincoln watch it as if it were a comedy variety show.

On the second day of their arrival on the uninhabited island, the five men and four women did something utterly absurd – they came to the beach together and began Working out!

Lincoln could somewhat understand the women doing yoga, but the beach was full of gym equipment, dumbbells, barbells, push-up racks, vertical sandbags, pull-up assist machines… all of which left him utterly puzzled.

How on earth did the program group think of putting a push-up rack on the sand?

Mavis stared intently at the stunning figures of the female guests on the screen. She surreptitiously measured herself against them and pouted in slight dissatisfaction.

She couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Lincoln’s expression and breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing his usual demeanor.

Just at this moment, Mavis suddenly raised her eyebrows, looked up at Lincoln, and said, “Master, you’re trending again!”

Lincoln blinked. His instinctive guess was, “Trending? Because the console is selling well?”

That was a reasonable guess. After all, 1.6 million devices sold out in less than three minutes, so it’s very fitting to say that it was a hit.

“No!” Mavis shook her head. “It’s because video uploader Super Tomato made a video about ‘Traveler of the Wind’, and the video is super popular, so you and the game are trending together.”

Lincoln was somewhat speechless. Was it really that easy to start trending?

More importantly, trending now was of little use!

No matter how manv Mirazes were listed, thev would sell out in minutes. ‘Traveler of the Wind’ was exclusively available with virtual reality device and was even included for free with the device. Even if it were hyped up now, it wouldn’t have a direct impact.

Lincoln would have been happier if it had happened a week later because, by then, the next batch of Mirages was due to be listed.

Since the two unmanned factories were operating at full efficiency simultaneously, the number of Mirage devices in the next batch would increase to 2.6 million units!

Taking into account the 2.4 million units already sold, it would be difficult for the 2.6 million Mirage devices to sell out within minutes again.

Having a trending topic at that time would have undoubtedly had a positive sales effect.

Unfortunately, Lincoln couldn’t control the actions of others, and the video uploader wanted to take advantage of the traffic that comes when something is “hot”. They wouldn’t want to wait if they could ride the wave as soon as possible.

After sighing, Lincoln still followed his curiosity and opened the link to see what the video was about.

Although he wasn’t the type of person to obsessively search for himself, he couldn’t help but wonder about the video since it had become popular.

Besides, it was always pleasant to see how the Internet writers praised him when he had nothing better to do.

Following Mavis’s guidance, Lincoln watched the entire Super Tomato video, which had now reached 8 million views and topped Little Video Station’s 24-hour view chart.

After watching the video, Lincoln couldn’t help but feel that this guy indeed had a good eye.

When his new game was about to be released in the future, he could consider inviting him to participate in the closed beta and get some free publicity.

“It’s not really free,” Lincoln reasoned, “He’s a self-proclaimed Cloud Dream fan, right? I’m fulfilling a loyal player’s wish to play an unreleased game early. Isn’t that an honor for the player?”

Right, forget about the commercial aspect; they were all players. Money didn’t matter; that was vulgar!

“Besides, I’m not getting something for nothing!” Lincoln generously sent a Triple-Like to the video.

Job done!

Lincoln had temporarily put the console and game-related matters to the back of his mind, focusing on the upcoming Subject One Exam on Monday.

However, many “Traveler of the Wind” players began to take action on a massive scale.

Even veteran players who had already completed the game several times and rarely logged in returned to the game after watching Super Tomato’s video.

This was because they strongly agreed with the core concept of “Traveler of the Wind” presented in the video, feeling it had touched their hearts.

‘Enrich others’ lives with your own experiences, and share your knowledge with them to help them overcome difficulties. Embark on your journey to make others’ journeys smoother, even if you are strangers to each other.’

‘Upon returning from your journey, use the experiences you’ve gained in your lifetime to benefit others and empower them to help even more people. Repeat this cycle endlessly.’

As a result, when a large number of new players entered this world, these players took to the Internet and organized a total mobilization effort: to return to this world once more, guiding and assisting new players, taking on the role of a “mentor” voluntarily.

Super Tomato led by example, joined by Camille Victoria, Yi, and countless other veteran players.

Even Princess Camille Victoria carefully selected a crane pattern scarf she had aeslgnea nerselt Derore aonmng tne wmte roDe or a mentor ancl participating in this extraordinary “Mentor Movement, ” eager to meet new players.

The actions of these veteran players were destined to become beautiful memories for countless new players, and many of these new players would choose to emulate such behavior in the future.

It could be foreseen that with Lincoln’s pace of releasing a new batch of Mirage devices every week, veteran players guiding new players, new players becoming veteran players, and new veteran players guiding the next batch of new players, this cycle would continue for a long time.

New players attracted by the Princess and “Traveler of the Wind” would effortlessly achieve success and have enjoyable experiences, even if they had never played games before, thanks to this assistance.

Players who might have initially struggled with solving puzzles would smoothly complete the challenges with the help of veteran players.

New players who initially only wanted to complete “Traveler of the Wind” and forget about the game would slowly settle down and become genuine players due to these memories.

Moreover, these players who had gained happiness and inspiration would spontaneously invite their friends to play, bringing even more new players on board.

Under these remarkable coincidences, the voluntary kind actions of hundreds of thousands, even millions of people, would help Lincoln effectively retain a large number of casual players.

However, at this moment, Lincoln was completely unaware of this and was even worried about whether the sales speed of the 2.6 million Mirage devices next week would slow down..
