This game is awesome

"to not fix."

"Wow, that's bad...I'm sorry!"

"Hehe, I'll let you go for now, but if you dare to say bad things about me again, I'll make you pay."

Of course Gu Qingshi didn't want to change this contract.

The agreement is still useful. It doesn't matter what happens to you, but if you really cause trouble, we can still use an iron fist to hit you.

Just like when you send pornographic videos to your friends, although no one cares, if you really pursue it, you will inevitably be detained for a few days and fined.

This is the sword of Damocles, a deterrent hanging over your head.

Gu Qingshi and Li Xiaomeng played around for a while, then she knocked on the table to quiet Li Xiaomeng down and said:

"But this reminds me, do you think we should hold an essay contest to add some heat to Baldur's Gate?"

"Calling for papers? We don't even have a website, so what can we use to collect papers?"

Li Xiaomeng complained.

"Yeah, then why don't we find someone to write the article, and then give out some rewards like treasure chests to increase my popularity..."

Gu Qingshi has read a lot of online articles since coming to this world, and knows that many websites have a mechanism for rewarding exposure.

She calculated carefully and found that hiring a senior ghostwriter for 150 yuan per thousand words, and a book of 75 million words would only be yuan.

Giving gifts worth 500,000 or 1 million to increase exposure would only add up to over 1 million.

If we buy some more data, the maximum we can get is just over two million.

The sales of Victoria's DLC make more than this amount of money, which is just a drop in the bucket for Fanxing.

This does not even include the book's royalties and the value of the subsequent IP.

Taking all this into account, if I'm lucky, I might be able to get back the two million...

But as long as a novel can be popular, it can bring a lot of traffic to the game.

Wow, this is much more cost-effective and economical than conventional promotion!

Gu Qingshi suddenly realized a new way to play, and immediately instructed Li Xiaomeng: "Go find a few high-level gunmen online and discuss cooperation with them."

"By the way, how capable is the author who just discussed copyright cooperation with us? Can we ask him to customize a novel?"

Li Xiaomeng shook her head. "A little-known author who seemed to have written a horror novel before. His pen name was something like The Pen of Fortune."

A pen for making money?

The name sounds vulgar, and seems to be a middle-aged author who earns money to support his family.

Gu Qingshi immediately gave up the idea and said, "Then let's find a ghostwriter to write for us. The price is 500 per thousand words, and the maximum price can be raised to 700 per thousand words."

Not long after Li Xiaomeng agreed, someone came knocking on the door in a hurry.

......

......

Xu Qiu Sheng opened the door and walked in, just in time to meet Gu Qingshi's surprised eyes.

"Why is Director Xu here?"

Xu Qiusheng was very happy and said as soon as he came in: "I came to ask you for funding."

"Funding?"

Gu Qingshi was stunned.

The funding for Development Group 2 has always been sufficient. The initial investment alone was tens of millions, and it was all burned through in just two months?

Seeing that Gu Qingshi had misunderstood, Xu Qiusheng hurriedly explained: "It's not development funds."

"I have two geniuses under my command who have worked out the rules and skill tables according to the settings given by the library."

Gu Qingshi immediately understood what Xu Qiusheng wanted to do, "Director Xu, are you going to develop a board game?"

"Correct!"

Gu Qingshi had never thought of developing board games first.

But it is indeed a good way to promote DND and Baldur's Gate.

"Where are the two men under you? Pull them over so I can talk to them. Also, send over the rules and skill tables."

"Okay, I'll call them over now."

Xu Qiu Sheng left happily.

......

Not long after, he knocked on the door again and walked in with the confused Yuan Ji.

Gu Qingshi had already read the rule book and legal table.

The rules of DND in the previous life are not very similar, and are even quite different. The rules are copied bit by bit from the setting collection of the University of Michigan Library, and are similar to those in the previous life.

Gu Qingshi gave these to Li Xiaomeng and asked her to organize them into a book and print multiple copies.

"Well done, you did this all by yourself?"

Yuan Ji hurriedly denied, "Boss, I am a gang member..."

Before he could continue to argue, he saw Xu Qiu Sheng coughing beside him.

"Uh, I did it."

"Not bad!" Gu Qingshi praised generously, "Do you have any other talents?"

"Know something about computer hardware?"

"That's great. You're in the AI ​​technical position, right? You should pay more attention to hardware. Do you have any other hobbies?"

"I'm also good at making cocktails. I've won second place in competitions before. I can also do stand-up comedy..."

Gu Qingshi's eyes lit up.

He can play board games, mix drinks, and install computers! He can also do crosstalk and is very eloquent!

Isn’t this the best candidate for offline store manager?

He can also work as a bartender and computer repairman.

Gu Qingshi immediately made the decision, "Very good, you can go to the offline store in the future. We are in need of a store manager. I will start with 30,000 yuan a month and see how things go. If you do well, I will raise it to 50,000 yuan a month."

"What!"

Yuan Ji's eyes blurred and he thought he had heard it wrong.

His current AI technical position only pays 15,000 yuan a month. Has the salary doubled?

And can I get a raise in the future?

Are the days of poverty going to be gone forever?

Chapter 125 [Zundu Jiadu]

Early the next morning.

Gu Qingshi is bedridden.

It’s not that she was really sick, it was mainly to deal with the counselor who called, she would have been sick even if she wasn’t sick.

Not only do you have to act pitiful, but your tone of voice also has to be nice.

——I will have to take a lot of leave in the next few years, so I have to build a good relationship with this person.

As the saying goes, it's easy to mess with the King of Hell, but it's hard to deal with the little devils. If there really is a counselor who wants to trip her up, then she will have troubles in the future.

Fortunately, the counselor was a soft-spoken girl who sounded easy to bully.

Gu Qingshi didn’t know her name, but her voice sounded soft and she was easy to bully, so Gu Qingshi commented on the counselor as "soft".

"Student Gu, are you still not well?"

"I've been too busy with work recently and didn't sleep well last night..."

Gu Qingshi looked at the alarm clock which set to noon and made up something.

"Student Gu, you should take care of your health."

Ruanruan was completely deceived by Gu Qingshi after just a few words. She took it all seriously and thoughtfully prescribed a Chinese herbal prescription for Gu Qingshi to help her sleep, reminding her to remember to go to bed on time, not to work overtime, and to take care of her body.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Qingshi breathed a sigh of relief.

Great, I got another week off.

Although it is not good for a freshman to miss three weeks of classes, the studio has been busy these days.

Li Xiaomeng has opened seven or eight author accounts at the same time and is hiring ghostwriters to write manuscripts. She just negotiated the contract today and got the first three chapters of several books.

You get what you pay for. The quality of the opening contents of these books is indeed good enough. They quickly passed the internal submission of the editors of the online literature platforms and were uploaded to several online literature platforms.

As soon as they were uploaded, Gu Qingshi gave rewards to these books one by one.

This book "Fantasy Kingdom in a Box" requires you to fight ten golden treasure chests;

That "Planeswalker's Guide" is a gold medal;

There is also "Traveling to Another World? Handing It Over to the Country" which was put on the reward list with 100,000 points.

With this rate of rewards, Gu Qingshi plans to come here every day.

Not to mention anything else, a site-wide announcement can let tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people know the name of the book, and one in ten people who click in will see "Tribute to DND" in the introduction.

After a month, on an online literature website, perhaps half of the active users will know the name of the book, and one in ten will curiously click in to read the introduction.

This is much more cost-effective than spending hundreds of millions on making a promotional video!

Moreover, it can cultivate several author accounts with fan base, which can generate continuous revenue in the future!

Gu Qingshi was simply amazed by her own cleverness.

genius!
