The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 286 Sold out! A short essay by overseas players

The Dream Building Super Factory on the outskirts of Ningzhou has been in operation for more than a month.

Production capacity is still climbing and there is still some distance to reach its peak.

But that is relative to the scale of the "super factory". If compared with conventional factories, the production capacity is already quite considerable.

Zhang Yang's holographic equipment had already started its production line early, and the finished products had already filled up the warehouse.

Xu Meng then decided -

Let’s take out a batch and sell them first, as if they were New Year’s goods for the players.

Therefore, 50 holographic devices and 100 million holographic media were suddenly put on the Dream Mall!
Afraid of being accused of hunger marketing by netizens, Xu Meng didn’t even dare to promote it.

Just showing off his true colors as a riddler again, he posted a message on pilipili to hint at it——

[I have prepared a batch of New Year's goods, waiting for the right person.]
This unclear dynamic has left netizens quite confused:
"The destined one? What destined one?"

"Do you want to draw a prize?"

"Are you bored and want to spend money? Me, me, me!"

"I don't know what it means, but I'll take a seat first."

"The Riddler will get out of here!"

……

For a full five minutes, no correct answer appeared in the comment section.

But this is not because netizens are slow-witted.

Instead, those who forwarded quickly searched the major official accounts, homepages, login tools and mall pages of Dream Building quickly after seeing the news.

After discovering the holographic device that was suddenly put on the shelves, people would not rush to the comment section to decipher it, but would place an order quickly!
There is no need to hesitate.

Even if you don't play games, you can still make money by reselling them, it's just a matter of how much you make.

But even though they reacted so quickly, most people only saw a pop-up window the moment they pressed the buy button.

[Product sold out]
"???"

In a toilet cubicle of the National Joint Laboratory for Materials Science, young graduate student Chen Zhi stared at his cell phone screen with a dull expression.

“It’s sold out already???”

"Are you kidding me?!"

A minute ago, the tutor was holding a meeting with them when the cell phone in his trouser pocket suddenly vibrated.

I took a peek and found that it was Xu Meng in the [Special Attention] list who posted the update.

Chen Zhi's reaction was quick, and he immediately thought of the holographic device!

He has been waiting for this thing for a long time!

Without caring too much, he stood up and raised his hand: "Professor! My stomach hurts, and I feel like I'm going to have diarrhea!"

The professor blinked and said, "Wait for me to clean your ass? Hurry up and do it!"

Chen Zhi quickly went into the toilet, took out his mobile phone, quickly locked the product and placed an order.

But I only saw the message [Product Sold Out].

He stood up in disappointment.

Then I realized something was wrong: How could diarrhea come on so quickly?

So he sat on the toilet seat with a clear conscience and took out his cell phone to urge Xu Meng——

"What are you doing?! It's gone now?? Go and screw the screws!"

Anyway, Xu Meng didn’t know who he was because of the Internet.

Not satisfied with just replying, I opened various social networks and surfed them passionately.

He was right. The social network was in an uproar at that moment!
Below Xu Meng's comment section, a group of people woke up from their dreams:

"No, buddy, can you be more clear next time?"

"I've been preparing money for months, but I can't buy it?"

"Didn't you say you built a super factory? What's so super about it? It won't be super waste, will it?!"

“No order has been placed, but I am looking forward to the shipment.”

"Restock quickly, restock quickly!"

“When is the next batch??”

……

Chen Zhi flipped through the pages but didn't see Xu Meng showing up.

So I switched to Mengjin again——

[Got it! A great magician who has been single for thirty years, is his hand speed just for nothing?!]
[Hahaha, I finally saved enough money to buy a somatosensory synchronization suit, and as soon as I entered, I saw the holographic device!]
[Anyone want a holographic device? 20 for sale! Fresh and hot!]
[Selling holographic equipment, 19!]
[Fuck, a can of media costs 1200 yuan? Who can afford it? ? ]
[Remind everyone, this thing is limited to one per person, so think carefully before you sell it.]
[Brothers, tomorrow I will be live streaming the holographic equipment review! Stay tuned to my live streaming room!]
……

Chen Zhi flipped through a few pages of the forum and found that in just a few minutes, the resale price had dropped from 20 rolls to 13.

"Okay! Roll hard! I'll buy it if it's below 10,000!"

I don’t know how Zhumeng did it, but the price of the holographic device is actually cheaper than VR glasses.

On the contrary, the holographic medium is a bit expensive, with a can selling for 1200 yuan. Chen Zhi himself roughly estimated that the first batch of medium produced in the laboratory cost more than one million yuan, which was frighteningly expensive.

At this time, Zhumeng is only selling a can for 1200 yuan, which is already a super conscience price.

But the problem is: this price is indeed a bit expensive for players.

This is a consumable after all.

"Will this be criticized by haters?"

Chen Zhi wanted to see the negative voices, so he turned on the dim light.

As expected, the words [holographic equipment] have become a hot search.

Click in and take a look. Some people are indeed saying that the price is unreasonable, but compared to another topic, the popularity is really not worth mentioning -

[Did Xu Meng really make a holographic device? Isn’t that fake news to deceive investors?]
"what?"

Chen Zhi rarely visits Weiguang, so when he suddenly saw this topic, he was stunned.

“There were so many local people’s videos on the New Year’s Eve live broadcast, and the official media reposted the report, but some people still think it’s fake??”

He clicked on the comment section in disbelief and found that there were actually a large number of people who still suspected that Xu Meng was a liar.

They say that those who buy now are all suckers...

Chen Zhi pursed his lips, not knowing what expression to make.

"Forget it, just be happy."

He continued to fiddle with his phone, becoming more and more excited.

until--

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a sudden knock on the toilet cubicle door, startling him.

"Someone!" he said loudly.

"I know someone!" The instructor's voice sounded outside the door.

"You said you had diarrhea, but you didn't come out for a long time. There was no sound in the toilet. I was afraid you fainted in there."

"Would you like to go to the infirmary?"

Chen Zhi was a little touched: "No need, I'll be there soon..."

"That's good." The tutor breathed a sigh of relief and left the bathroom.

Chen Zhi also hurriedly got up and pressed the flush button, wasting a tank of water.

Then he adjusted his expression and walked out of the bathroom.

But as soon as he walked out and saw his instructor waiting outside, the phone in his pocket vibrated again.

I took it out and saw that it was Xu Meng again——

[Now there really is not a single one left.]
"??!!"

No matter that the instructor is right in front of you.

Open the app!

Place your order! Pay!
Done in one go! !

Seeing [Order successfully placed, queuing for shipment], Chen Zhi's face relaxed.

But when he looked up, he saw his instructor with a suspicious look on his face.

He quickly suppressed his smile and said, "Ah, I asked someone to bring me some medicine."

The tutor did not expose him, but just shook his head and left in silence.

……

……

The second batch of equipment will still include 50 holographic devices and 100 million holographic media.

Still sold out.

It even lasted 20 seconds less than the first batch.

The players who got the prizes were overjoyed, while those who didn’t complained that Xu Meng had launched another surprise attack that caught them off guard.

But the players who didn’t get the chance are not the worst off.

The worst are overseas players——

It was not until the second batch was sold out that the news that [holographic display equipment was put on the shelves] finally spread overseas.

——Along with the news that [holographic display devices are sold out at the speed of light].

When overseas players saw these two pieces of news, they had nothing but question marks on their faces.

After taking some time to accept this cruel reality, a group of players turned on the translator and began to write heartfelt essays to Dream Building.

Niiiko also started writing in the live studio——

[Dear Mr. Xu Meng, perhaps a noble person like you will forget many things.]
[But outside of Xia Country, there are many loyal players like me who have their eyes pierced by the holographic display devices.]
[We sincerely hope that you can wear an iron mask and treat domestic and foreign players without selfishness.]
[We really, really need holographic equipment!]
[Especially needed!!!]
