"Specially appointed administrator?" Baifa No. 1 Middle School and Narcissus Huakai both widened their eyes and looked at Zhang Yang in confusion.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Yes, as a specially hired administrator, you will be paid by the guild, and you also need to put all your energy into guild management and treat guild management as a real job."
Baifa Yizhong and Shuixian Huakai looked at each other, still somewhat incredulous. They both had legitimate jobs, and were not that interested in quitting their jobs to become administrators of a virtual world guild. After all, how long can a game last? Five years, ten years? It would take a lot of time.
Zhang Yang smiled again and said, "Don't rush to refuse. Listen to me. The current monthly salary is 10,000 real currency. This is the base salary. In the future, depending on the development of the guild, there will be bonuses and the like."
Seeing that both of them showed hesitation, Zhang Yang continued: "You can see that the number of players of Miracle has jumped from 5 million at the beginning to 170 million now, and it has only been more than two months. This shows how great the charm of this game is. I am sure that in a short time, the number of players of this game will exceed 1 billion, or even 2 billion. What does this mean? An infinitely huge business opportunity and market, and a well-developed guild will become a money printing machine."
Baifa Yizhong thought for a moment and said, "Zhan Yu, it's not that I don't trust you, but this matter is too important. I must understand the risks and opportunities involved."
Narcissus also nodded.
Zhang Yang said: "As a guild, our profit point is after level 50. Look at the current leveling map. The area closest to the main city is all level 10 leveling areas. The next layer is the level 20 leveling area, and then the level 30 leveling area and the level 40 leveling area. You have already felt the trouble. If you want to go to the leveling area, it may take an hour or two just to take the 'plane' from the main city to the leveling area."
He paused for a moment and continued, "If players need supplies, need to repair equipment, need to go to the auction house or the bank, they must return to the main city. How much time will it take to go back and forth? Now it only takes one or two hours, and the leveling area after level 50 will be farther away from the main city. Therefore, in the future, territories will be refreshed in the 50+ maps. There will be teleportation arrays in the territories that go directly to the main city, and teleportation symbols can also be bound to the territories, which can save players a lot of time."
Zhang Yang showed an expectant expression and said, "Any faction can fight for the ownership of a territory, and the faction that obtains the territory can charge a teleportation fee. Just think about it, even if they only charge 1 gold coin each time, then with at least 20 million players in the Chinese region, how much income will this be?"
Of course, the number of 20 million is a bit exaggerated, because there is more than one territory, but it is easy to divert to 1 million players. Moreover, now "Miracle" only has 170 million players. What if it jumps to 1 billion or 2 billion in the future
Baifayi hit the target and Narcissus's breathing immediately became rapid.
"To fight for territory, you can't rely on the strength of one or a few people. Only a guild can take it down. And it requires a very strong guild." Zhang Yang looked at the two people of Baifa Yizhong and said slowly, "I need you to develop Damo Guyan into a super guild. Not only a large number of people, but also strong combat effectiveness and cohesion."
Baifa Yizhong thought for a moment and said, "Zhan Yu, aren't you the soul of the guild? Currently, the entire guild regards you as an idol. As long as you give an order, which member will be unwilling to obey it?"
Zhang Yang laughed and said, "I am only suitable for single-soldier combat and leading a team to clear the dungeon for the first time. I am good at it. However, I don't have the patience to run a guild, and I don't have that much time. I need helpers to help me deal with disputes between guild members and handle the complicated accounts in the future. So, I hope you can agree that the guild cannot make a profit now, and I can only give you a monthly salary of 10,000. But I believe that in a month or two, after we take over the first territory in the game, your monthly salary will be at least 100,000."
Narcissus was silent for a while before she said, "This decision is too important for me. I need to think about it."
Baifa Yizhong also said: "I have to discuss this with my wife."
Although Miracle is currently a big hit, they are naturally hesitant to bet their future on it. After all, no one can guarantee that Miracle can run for a few years and whether the current success will be short-lived.
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Please think about it carefully. This decision may indeed affect your entire life."
In fact, there are some things he cannot reveal too much. In the previous life, how many people became millionaires, tens of millions, or even billionaires by relying on "Miracle"? A super-large online game with 2 billion players has long gone beyond the scope of games. Just like football and basketball, it has become a culture and a huge industrial chain.
However, Baifa Yizhong and Shuixianhuakai did not disappoint Zhang Yang. After careful consideration for three or four days, they gave Zhang Yang a positive reply. Because, in the days following Zhang Yang, they earned more than 100,000 yuan in commission from selling equipment alone. In addition to the more than 400,000 yuan from the guild upgrade order a few days ago, they earned nearly 600,000 yuan in a short period of time.
In the past, it would take them eight to ten years to earn
Therefore, even if they were not optimistic about the prospects of the "territory", the money they earned from following Zhang Yang to play dungeons and sell equipment would be enough for them to make up for the loss of their jobs and make a lot of money. Even if "Miracle" only ran for a year, they would be able to make at least a million yuan, and it would not be too late to find a job by then.
Moreover, once the wonderful scene described by Zhang Yang appeared, how much profit would it bring to them? Just thinking about it was enough to make their blood boil and keep them awake at night.
Both of them quit their real jobs and devoted their energy and time to the game. In order to encourage them, Zhang Yang immediately paid them the first month's salary.
Under Zhang Yang's arrangement, Narcissus was in charge of the guild's finances and immediately launched an activity to exchange old equipment for guild points. Guild members were encouraged not to sell their obsolete equipment at the auction house, but to store it in the guild warehouse in exchange for a certain amount of guild points. In this way, high-level members can use their points to look forward to better equipment, and low-level players don't have to go to dungeons to grind, they can get suitable equipment by completing guild tasks.
Baifa Yizhong is responsible for recruiting and kicking out guild members. Damo Guyan values character above all else when recruiting people. Self-serving players, players who steal equipment from dungeons, and players who cheat people of their money will not be accepted. Anyway, there are too many players applying to join the guild every day, and the guild does not need black sheep to ruin its reputation.
With these two measures in place, the atmosphere of the guild of Damoguyan has become more and more harmonious, and the cohesion has become stronger. It has gradually become a strong guild, instead of just relying on the image of a nouveau riche that Zhangyang and his team have created.
At 3:30 pm on September 14, Han Yingxue was the first to reach level 50.
"Server Announcement: Congratulations to player Guai Xueer for becoming the first player in the game to reach level 50, and receiving a reward of +1 luck value."
"Server Announcement: The first player to reach level 50 has been generated. The "Expedition" version has officially started. Players can find any guard in the main city to learn more. The official website will also release a detailed introduction to the "Expedition" version."
"Server Announcement: New profession: Rune Magic has officially been added to the game. For details about the Rune profession, please find the Rune Master in the main city for details."
After a series of system announcements, all players in the eight regions around the world were excited. Some went to find the guards to inquire about the situation of the "Expedition" version, some went offline directly to the official website, and others went to find the rune master to find out the situation.
Han Yingxue and the others were quite lazy. Knowing that Zhang Yang was an "internal test player", they sent him a message directly to ask him.
Zhang Yang simply put everyone into a team and used the team channel to explain everything at once.
"Let's talk about the Rune profession first," Zhang Yang cleared his throat. Because of him, the time for the "Expedition" version to appear was half a month earlier in this life. "The Rune profession is divided into two parts, one, decomposition, and two, the manufacture of rune stones. First, the rune master can decompose the equipment in the game to obtain various rune essences. The better the quality and the higher the level of the equipment, the higher the level of the rune essence you get. Every 30 levels of equipment is a section. For example, if I decompose the black iron equipment of levels 10, 20, and 30, I will only get the first-level black iron essence, and if I decompose the black iron equipment of levels 40, 50, and 60, I will get the second-level black iron essence."
"Rune essence can be used to create rune stones. Runes on weapons can permanently enhance the weapons in various ways. For example, strength enhancement +2 means using rune stones to enhance the weapon twice, increasing the strength by 20 points. Stamina enhancement +3 means using rune stones to enhance the weapon three times, increasing the stamina by 160 points. It can be enhanced up to ten times."
"High-level rune stones can be used for low-level enhancements, such as using a level 5 rune stone to enhance by +4, but low-level rune stones cannot be used for high-level enhancements. For example, if you want to enhance by +5, you can only use a level 5 rune stone or higher. Enhancement by +10 will give you additional effects, such as a physical enhancement of +10, and each attack will also have an additional blood-sucking effect. Rune enhancement has a failure rate. Once it fails, not only will the materials be wasted, but the original enhancement effect will also be reduced by 1."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Why is the Rune Major launched at this time? At the beginning of the game, if you were given the Rune Major, you would not be willing to disassemble your equipment. Now, some of the initial players have reached level 40. Most of the equipment they eliminated has entered the auction house and flowed to the hands of new players. This will undoubtedly make the dungeon a lot quieter. This is not what the game company wants to see. Once the Rune Major is launched, a large number of low-level equipment will be disassembled, which is also the best way to stabilize the gold coin."
Wei Yan'er blinked and said, "What is this "Expedition" version?"
