Chapter 157 Shark Baby's Obsession with Watching Ads for Reward Skins

Shark grabbed Li Ji's stool and jumped around excitedly.

"I want to play! I want to play!"

"I'll send you the demo right away."

Li Ji sent the demo version to Shark Baby's communicator.

Before Sha Bao pressed the button, it suddenly became alert.

The upturned corners of her mouth froze instantly.

"There won't be any in-app purchases this time, right?"

"No."

Lee Ki-shin's lips curled up, unable to suppress his laughter, and he exhaled a breath.

"You've already laughed, and you still say you didn't! You old scoundrel!"

"Don't worry, the version I'm giving you is a special bonus version, no in-app purchases required."

"Really?"

"Really. When did you become so cunning? You've been corrupted by Delulu."

"I was just really screwed over by you."

SharkBaby has been integrated into "Tales of Earth's Rules".

The world before my eyes changed in an instant.

A spotlight shines in the darkness, and a disheveled middle-aged East Asian man stands under it.

He was wearing flip-flops and a white tank top, picking his nose with one hand and touching his bald head with the other.

"Hey kid, welcome to 'Tales of Earth's Rules,' I'm your newbie guide, Brother Wang."

"I will provide you with a beginner's guide that even viruses can understand."

"If you can't even figure this out, I suggest you let the virus go to university and let you invade the human body."

"If you are not satisfied with my appearance, you can switch at any time."

Shark nodded thoughtfully.

The unremarkable-looking fellow in front of him did indeed seem rather unattractive to him.

"Let's switch. Can we switch to the older sister version?"

Brother Wang flicked the tip of his little finger: "No problem."

He leaped into the air, his entire body emitting a dazzling white light.

Only the outlines of people can be seen.

"Brother Wang, transform!"

Under the holy light.

He raised his right hand, and five pink flashes transformed into beautiful manicure nails.

Twin ponytails popped out from the top of his head with a bouncy sound.

A square face tapers inwards to form an oval face.

Sloping shoulders become straight shoulders.

Her bulky arms and waist became slender.

The breasts and buttocks visibly became fuller.

A burst of red light erupted from his chest, transforming into ribbons.

"boom--"

The ribbon instantly transformed into a sailor uniform.

“sing——”

A huge red bow appeared on her chest.

As she twirled gracefully, long white lace gloves appeared on her hands and red knee-high boots on her feet.

The holy light dissipated.

She transformed into a long-legged beauty standing under the spotlight, making a peace sign with her fingers and touching her forehead, revealing a sweet smile.

"The beautiful young lady, Sister Wang, has come to pay her respects!"

Shark Baby chuckled, its bright red tongue sticking out: "There are special effects too, it looks really good."

A dialog box suddenly popped up in front of him.

Please confirm your purchase of the "Sister Wang" skin for the new player guide; price: 10 Alliance Coins.

Shark Baby was stunned, his bewilderment reflected in his snow-white fangs.

"Li Ji, didn't you say there were no in-app purchases?"

He heard a voice-over.

"How am I supposed to recoup my investment without in-app purchases? Dailulu invested 100 million. Although Dailulu doesn't care about returns, I can't let her down."

"You just want to make money, right?"

"Nonsense! This is the professional attitude of a professional manager. This is called being conscientious and responsible. How can you use such vulgar ideas to judge me!"

"I don't want to spend money, and I don't want to see that bald guy. I just want the older sister! What should I do now?"

"I already said this is a special bonus version, so of course you don't have to spend any money. Look at the bottom of the dialog box, is there another option?"

Shark looked down and indeed there was another option button.

[Watch a 30-second video to get the "Sister Wang" skin for free] "What's with this?"

Shark's confusion has already manifested in his physical body.

Li Ji noticed that although his eyes were empty, the corners of his mouth were drooping down in a frenzy.

This is certainly a more advanced profit model.

According to the backend data of "Battle Royale", out of 115 students in the department, only 46 actually paid for the in-app purchases.

The remaining 69 people are all freeloaders!
They either exchange rewards from events for characters and items, or they play with the initial character until the end.

Li Ji reviewed the traditional playing style and found that most college students were still poor.

It's difficult to expect them to spend money.

He decided to iterate on the product strategy, using a combination of free and paid models to directly address user pain points.

Paid players have access to an in-app purchase system.

Even free players shouldn't play for free, so let them watch ads.

Li Ji partnered with businesses around the three schools to reach a cooperation agreement, offering 1 Alliance Coin for 10 30-second video ads.

Although the profits may not seem large at present, every little bit helps.

This free advertising model generates more revenue with higher traffic. Once the game gains traction in the future, advertising revenue will grow exponentially.

You stinking aliens, do you even understand capitalism?
Let Earth teach you a lesson!
Shark reluctantly clicked on the advertisement.

The surrounding environment changed again.

Shark arrived at a toilet in the school.

A silver toilet in the shape of a pyramid stands before me.

"What kind of advertisement is this? Why is it in the toilet?"

Are toilets also becoming unsaleable?

"Then I should go and give them my full support."

The toilet suddenly rose into the air and launched like a rocket.

It broke through the toilet ceiling.

It shattered the school's spaceship hull.

Shark Baby shouted excitedly, "I understand!"

"This is an advertisement for toilets!"

"It's meant to showcase the toilet's super high quality!"

Li Ji, who was monitoring Shark Baby's reaction in the system, was covering his mouth and chuckling.

The toilet flew into outer space and drifted in the vast sea of ​​stars.

The toilet crossed the asteroid belt.

The toilet flew past the stars.

"Hehe, this toilet can fly!"

"so fun."

A toilet has fallen into the ocean of a desolate planet.

Suddenly, a penguin-like figure bursts out of the scene, his silver bodysuit bearing a green logo on the back.

It says on it: "Super Finder".

Penguin picked up the toilet, walked through the screen, and stood in front of Shark.

Sha Bao stared in disbelief as he accepted the toilet handed to him.

The penguin said in a broadcasting voice, "No matter how far you lose it, we can help you find it."

"For lost and found items, choose JuNeng Finder!"

The penguin smiles.

The screen disappeared, and Shark Baby looked excitedly at the toilet in his hand.

His lips curled up high, revealing his snow-white sharp teeth and bright red tongue.

"They're really good at finding things! They managed to find it even after it flew so far away!"

"I want them to help me find my lost pink shark pillow."

Li Ji asked expectantly, "How is it? Isn't this advertisement incredibly creative?"

"This is hilarious! Did their company come up with this themselves?"

Li Ji said with immense pride, "Of course not. How could these guys possibly have such incredible ideas? I made them all myself."

“They are all small businesses near the school, they don’t have any advertising videos. I make them for them for 100 Alliance Coins each.”

"This is something I created by absorbing the essence of Earth's commercials."

"It's not just an advertisement; it also contains a wealth of knowledge about the Earth and the mindset of Earthlings."

"This is all educational, and it's already very kind of us not to make you pay to watch it."

Shark Baby shook her body excitedly, as if riding a rocking horse: "That's a great deal, I have to watch another one."

"There's no need for that. Let's start by evaluating the game content first."

"If you want to see ads, there will be many more opportunities to do so later."
