Building a Gaming Empire From Scratch

Chapter 252: Chapter 250: What to Wear on the Final Day?

Translator: 549690339

Lincoln still didn’t know that while he was preparing a surprise for the players.

Some players were also preparing a “surprise” for him.

The Friday game went smoothly, and the players had become proficient.

Apart from still wearing red “combat suits,” everything else was in order.

Because many of the red clothes from the Metropolitan Clothing Store were very old-fashioned and even eye-catching, only a very small number of red-toned clothes had great styles and designs, and most of them were for women.

Among tne players participating In tne Dattle, tne rat10 or men to women was obviously higher in men.

Most of these beautiful women’s clothes were not utilized, except for a few eye-catching female bosses.

Therefore, many players even bought red-dominated clothes that they were satisfied with in their own worlds in advance and changed into them before entering the competition map.

Numerous female players even went to the battlefield wearing beautiful red dresses—it didn’t matter whether they won or not, the key was to look pretty!

For this reason, they even specifically looked for players who knew how to design and cut to design and make clothes for themselves in the virtual world. This behavior undoubtedly inspired other female players who had already advanced.

However, this was not actually something new.

The first to design the clothes worn during the competition were actually professional players from various eSports clubs.

Because there is no convenient “tailor” profession skill in “Assassins’ Alliance,” creating and modifying clothes can only be done with the tools in the virtual world, which is quite time-consuming.

In order for their “boy group” to make a dazzling appearance, club managers started considering how to look more handsome as soon as they confirmed their participation.

For professional players, being handsome means having influence, productivity, and the ability to directly increase endorsement quotes.

This relationship affects all club employees’ income, so of course, they must be dedicated!

In the process, they came up with a wonderful idea: Can we make the logo of the endorsement brand in the virtual world and sew it on the clothes worn by the players during the competition?

As well as the subtle concern that arose from this: Does Cloud Dream allow this kind of behavior?

Fortunately, Cloud Dream is no longer just an email-dependent company, relying solely on Mavis’s responses.

With the small team led by Jerome and Samuel, the outside world now has a channel to contact Cloud Dream, and the clubs then found Jerome, who found Randall, who found Lincoln.

Lincoln very generously said: “Let them be, it’s up to the players what they want to wear, and there’s no reason to treat professional players specially. As long as they don’t blatantly advertise and affect the audience’s viewing experience, it’s fine.”

After receiving the good news, club managers started modifying clothes and soon saw the Red Armored Brigade start to get out of control.

Now those who haven’t participated in the competition quickly changed their clothes to red.

Those who have already advanced also started to consider if the Red Armored Brigade will affect the Final Day?

Which outfit should they wear if it does?

Red? Or the color of the players who have already advanced in the Grand Alliance?

Clubs are more concerned about the competition than ordinary players and are therefore more prone to entanglements and indecision about what to wear on the final day.

Apart from the clothing issue, the clubs were also very concerned about one thing: Xu Chun’s Cold Weapon Master Class.

Yes, although Xu Chun is devoted to joining Cloud Dream and is not very interested in coaching or training, things turned out to be a bit different after he arrived in Xiajing City.

Lincoln warmly received him, treated him to dinner, booked a hotel, provided a housing allowance, and provided rental information.

He also brought him to the studio to meet everyone—the scene was like a fan meeting, especially the male colleagues, who even crowded around to ask for his autograph…

After visiting the studio, Lincoln announced his work arrangement: paid leave.

There was no way, Lincoln’s key need for him was for future game projects.

Compared to digging for talent when needed, it’s better to pull him in now and spend money to support him.

After the “Freedom Day” competition event is over, he will lead the effort to slightly improve the [Cold Weapon Fighting] skill effects.

And once all the details of the “Speed Chase” scenes are completed, and the player leveling system design begins, he will help improve the [Gunfighting Technique].

After all, the concept of [Gunfighting Technique] is a hybrid skill that merges gunplay, fighting, cold weapons, and other elements.

It’s just that right now, it’s hard to find something for him to do.

Teaching boxing during break time at the studio?

Isn’t that the same as torturing employees with morning exercises?

So Lincoln simply waved his hand: Paid leave it is!

Take advantage of the fact that clubs are desperate for talent and make some extra cash.

To ease his mind, Lincoln found an excuse: Investigate these esports clubs, see the standard of top players, and use that as a reference when designing games.

Xu Chun was thrilled to hear that there were such good deals.

Paid extra work, isn’t that like two salaries?

So he excitedly went along.

And just like Lincoln said, these clubs were desperate for talent, and at the initial rate of 10,000 per class, they didn’t hesitate to pay up.

They even offered high salaries to tempt him into staying as a coach.

But Xu Chun’s determination remained firm, believing that he was here for an undercover “background check,” and was not swayed.

In order for the “background check” to be more thorough, he even gave up easier online tutoring and personally visited each club to interact with professional players.

Club managers were oblivious to this, thinking he was really interested, and answered his questions, as long as they didn’t involve private matters, with excellent attitude.

For a time, both host and guest were happy.

On Cloud Dream’s side, just in time for the last day of the sea selection battle, the first stage of their collaboration with Qingjin was finally completed.

Qingjin’s 45 stores were all set up, waiting for the update at midnight on Friday, coinciding with the finals.

A flagship store in the inner circle for competition display was also built with the help of Cloud Dream staff.

The whole collaboration process, from negotiations to implementation, was smooth, although the crossover was quite large, and both sides were cautious.

Especially Jerome, who thought that future similar collaborations might refer to this experience, so he wanted to make it as comprehensive as possible.

Even so, both parties had clear intentions, and progress was very smooth.

Today, on his way back to the company, Jerome received calls from many friends.

These friends either directly or indirectly hinted at the news: Many brands were keeping an eye on the collaboration between Cloud Dream and Qingjin.

If the collaboration was successful and effective, there might be more brands knocking on their door one after another.

After hanging up the phone, Jerome sighed deeply.

Although the actual effect of the collaboration still needed some time to show, he finally felt that the situation was opening up.

Finally, the influence of his failed negotiation with the Southern Branch at the beginning of his career was completely gone.

Jerome felt that his work situation suddenly opened up.

But Richard felt like he was stuck in a quagmire.

After Warner’s resignation, his former deputy also left.

After promoting the third-in-command to take over and working for three days, he realized that what he had taken over was not just a hot potato, but a ticking time bomb, and immediately wanted to quit.

He resigned that very night and fled!

There was no stopping him!

Richard’s mouth was literally blistering from anger, and his female assistant brewed him chrysanthemum tea daily to cool him down.

But the tea couldn’t solve the predicament he faced, and the fire just wouldn’t go out.

He didn’t even dare to tell his assistant about the situation.

He worried that after hearing about it, she would also resign and run away overnight…

At that moment, he suddenly felt a great sense of regret: Maybe he shouldn’t have impulsively listened to Wesley’s one-sided story?
