Chapter 576
Chapter 576: The Entire Body Feels Comfortable, Excellent!
99th floor, International Convention Center.
Actually, during this time, everyone should be resting or improving their relationships over meals.
But things were different today, for there wasn’t a single empty seat in the entire International Convention Center. Wen Jianan scanned around and saw that almost everyone was here; the place was packed full. They were all discussing how much money would the new heroes and skins sell for today.
After all, they were all very impressed with Hong Dali’s ability to earn money. It could be said that this ability of his was to the extent of being called terrifying!
“In less than an hour, the sale will start. I wonder how much will be made this time.”
“Exactly. But Hong Dali is always very capable, I think that he will earn quite a lot today.”
“15 million players online at the same time, that’s very strong. I reckon that 50 million for this night shouldn’t be a problem!”
“In my opinion, it should be more than that, maybe 60 or 70 million.”
Of course, there were those who supported this, and there were those who opposed it. Someone shook his head and said, “I don’t think so, there are only five new heroes, the most expensive one being ten yuan and the cheapest one being four yuan. There are a bit more skins, but the most expensive one is only 15 yuan, the cheapest one being two yuan. Even though a lot of people play the game, there won’t be a lot of money made from selling these.”
“That’s right, even at a ratio of one out of ten people buying, how much would that be? If 1.5 million people pay money, let’s say 20 yuan per person, that’s only 30 million. Also, they only need to buy once for the heroes and skins, it’s not like they can buy it every day.”
Everyone nodded. “That’s true.”
…
So Fun gaming website, Dream Dota League’s forum.
“Brothers, in less than an hour’s time the sale for heroes and skins will start, are you guys prepared?”
The others replied: “Of course we are. Young Master Dali has already clearly said that the money will all be used for charity after tax deductions. Also, the Nation has already adjusted the tax rate to the lowest available. We must definitely support him!”
“That’s right, this is akin to spending money to help those in need. This money is spent comfortably, we must definitely spend! I rather eat bread for two meals to support this!”
“No need to waste words, I have already charged money into my account to buy all of the heroes and skins being released. As long as they can be paid in cash, I will buy all that is available!”
“Nouveau riche, please support me!”
…
8:50 PM that night, after ten minutes of maintenance, at 9 PM sharp, the cash heroes and skins were released for sale!
At the same time, in the International Convention Center in Door to Heaven, Running Dog projected the income chart from selling the heroes and skins!
The starting value displayed was—zero!
“It’s starting!” The people below all got invigorated and stared at this figure!
It now was 9 PM. By 12 PM, how much money could be made? 20 million? 30 million? 50 million?
Very quickly, the figure started to jump!
9:02 PM, figure: 484,594.
9:03 PM, figure: 746,574.
Everyone started to discuss: “The figure is jumping very fast. Only three minutes passed and it’s already almost 80 thousand!”
“Terrifying, at this rate of 30,000 a minute, that would be 18 million in an hour! By 12 PM, wouldn’t 50 million worth be sold in one day?”
“That’s not for sure. Normally, things will sell faster at the start and then slow down. I reckon by 12 PM, there should be at least 40 million.”
Yet, just as that person said this, everyone suddenly “AHed”!
9:04 PM, figure: 1,573,621!
Everyone was instantly stunned. “What the heck, what situation is this? Eighty plus thousand in just one minute?”
“There’s probably something wrong with my eyes, right? The increase is a bit too much, isn’t it?”
“I am definitely still not awake yet, 80,000 in a minute, this…”
Then, everyone went crazy.
9:05 PM, figure: 2,812,366!
“1.3 million! It jumped by 1.3 million in just a minute!”
“God, at this rate, wouldn’t it make Sixty plus million in just an hour? Isn’t that impossible? Are the players of this game really so crazy!?”
“Is Running Dog scamming us?”
“No no, if he changed the figures, doesn’t that mean that he will have to donate money to make up for the difference himself? It should be true.”
“That’s true.”
9:06 PM, figure: 4,256,748…
Everyone: “…”
9:07 PM, figure: 5,312,581…
Everyone: “…”
…
Tianhai City, inside a four-star hotel.
This was just an ordinary star-level hotel, and it could only be considered to be average. However, the person coming here wasn’t that simple.
The mysterious man, the boss of everyone in Heavenly State was here.
He was making private checks on places and keeping a low-profile. When he came, the news of his arrival was strictly sealed. Therefore, other than those closest to him, no one knew of him coming here.
“Boss.” The Bureau Chief sat on the sofa and softly asked, “Currently, that little rascal Hong Dali started two charity movements, one to protect animals and one medical institution. The response for both is quite good.”
“Yup, this child Dali is indeed quite influential.” The mysterious man nodded, smiled and said, “I wanted to do both of these two things too, but I never really had a good chance. I never thought that Hong Dali would start doing them first, hehe.”
“That’s right.” The Bureau Chief sighed and said, “The world’s environment is deteriorating quite seriously now, especially in populated areas. Our Heavenly State could be said to be one of the most severe places being affected. Many species are facing extinction. We thought about making a wildlife animal protection association previously, but if we assign someone to do it, there would definitely be people under him slacking around and trying to collect money for themselves or something, so it isn’t an easy thing to do.”
“Hehe, now that Hong Dali started this, all of the members who voluntarily joined the organization are commoners.” The mysterious man smiled and said, “When they meet animals that need rescue, the commoners can directly help them and then receive subsidies. Also, the Internet has already spread the news that Hong Dali can interact with animals, so I reckon no one will dare to scam him—doing things like purposely abusing animals then bringing them for money.”
“That’s right, we didn’t start this because we were afraid of things like this.” The Bureau Chief sighed and said, “Now, this isn’t an issue anymore.”
The mysterious man’s worry wasn’t without reason.
The reason that the Nation didn’t do it was exactly that—they were afraid that some people might purposely injure the animals then send them to the protection association and say that they were the ones who rescued the animal in order to get the reward. After all, animals couldn’t speak, no one would know whether it was real or fake, so this was a difficult problem.
But things were different now. Everyone knew that Hong Dali liked animals, and he could even ride on sharks—who would dare to deceive money from Hong Dali through this method? That person would definitely get a broken leg and thrown into the toilet…
“Oh right, Boss, regarding the medical charity…” The Bureau Chief thought for a while and slowly said, “I need to support him on my side, so I contacted the various province leaders to ask them to support Hong Dali. Now, every province allocated 500 million to his organization. But for the subsequent process…”
“Yup, medical charity is a good thing, but the difficulty isn’t a small one.” The mysterious man sighed and said, “The previous charity organizations were all not doing much in serving their purpose, and this area is also something that isn’t easy to monitor. We had always been thinking of a solution, but we didn’t come out with any good one. Now that this child Dali has gone into this, things are different. All we have to do is support him. With his temper and invincible luck, he might really achieve fully free medical service for the people in the future.”
“Free medical services for everyone, this is quite impossible, isn’t it?” The Bureau Chief got a fright and said, “There are so many people in our country. If everyone can receive free medical services, wouldn’t that need a capital of more than 500 billion to be possible?”
“Hehe, actually, you can’t calculate it this way.” Towards the Bureau Chief’s question, the mysterious man instead shook his head, smiled and said, “Most of the medical fees are actually focused on minor illnesses. After all, most people suffer from these, so the number is very high. But think about it, the money for this area isn’t a lot—flu and fever only need tens of yuan to be treated, normal people wouldn’t mind paying such a small amount. If we remove this component, we wouldn’t really need to spend too much.”
“That’s true.” The Bureau Chief thought for a while and said, “I feel that if we save a bit, this might really be possible.”
“Of course it’s possible. The lack of effort of the Eleventh Society has already attracted the discontent of many people. We can use this chance to…” Saying so, the mysterious man mimicked cutting with his hand. “Withdraw all of their funds and leave them to fend for themselves.”
“OK!” The Bureau Chief fiercely agreed, then suddenly took out his smartphone and winked at the mysterious man. “Boss, Dream Dota League has started to charge for some items. It’s already been an hour, shall we see how much he made from this?”
“Hehe, sure.” The mysterious man took a sip of tea. “Let’s see if he can surprise us.”
“Running Dog.” The Bureau Chief made the call. “How much money did the Dream Dota League made already?” To let the mysterious man hear more clearly, the Bureau Chief chose the speaker mode.
“It already made 64,657,359 yuan, Mr. Bureau Chief.”
“PU—” The mysterious man spat out the tea in his mouth. “How much!?”
…
At the same time, Hong Dali laid on Li Nianwei’s tight and rested. In fact, he was looking at the System.
As he looked, he was secretly cheering in his heart. “Oh my, this is awesome, this is totally awesome! Hahahaha, there’s already 15 Life points! Dad, Mum, I wish the both of you good health and long life, brouhaha!”
Thinking of this, he added five Life points to both Hong Weiguo and Lan Ruoxi.
After adding these points, Hong Dali sighed in satisfaction. “No present is better than health and an increase in Life. Dad and Mum, receive your son’s filial piety, hahaha!”
My whole body feels comfortable, excellent!
What is happier than my parents being able to live healthily for another extra five years!
Yup, since doing charity has this kind of benefit, I might as well go out and walk around to help those in need and get some Life points too!
Speaking of which, this type of feeling is indeed not bad, hehe.
“Xiaoyi.” Hong Dali opened his eyes and asked Ling Xiaoyi, “Is there anyone else who needs help? Let’s go and take more looks around.”
Hearing Hong Dali’s words, Ling Xiaoyi instantly smiled and said, “Young Master, I just browsed through the Internet, and I did indeed find someone who really needs help!”
