Chapter 318
Chapter 318
Many planet owners were tempted, but they were too far from China's number one planet, and the cost of bridging was beyond their means. At this point, they had to send people to discuss the issues of branch offices and servers.
Even if the owner of Qingfengyi asks for a higher price, it won't exceed the price of going through a bridging service.
However, Lin Shuying has no plans to establish branch offices, let alone separate servers. There is only one Qingfengyi, just as there is only one Huaxia. It's not a matter of being narrow-minded or lacking foresight and motivation to expand Qingfengyi's influence. Rather, the entire value of Qingfengyi is built on the foundation of this single server. Who has considered how much the players' interests would be diluted if separate servers were established?
Qingfengyi is a game that can quickly become popular throughout the entire interstellar space and gain more players than "Wuyuan Qimeng".
But what about the players' interests?
The value of items collected by players on a different server will decrease by at least a hundredfold. You can't say that items from the previous server will not be available on the new server.
Is that still the same gentle breeze?
The situation escalated, and many planetary owners appealed to the official developers. After all, the official "Enlightenment of Things" game only had one server, capable of accommodating all interstellar players.
However, he was rejected. While Qingfengyi's demonstrated strength was impressive, it wasn't enough to warrant official access to the highest level of holographic technology currently available. In other words, such access wouldn't be granted to private individuals unless it were updated and iterated upon. From an interstellar perspective, Lin Shuying is a private individual, and so is the planet's owner. The official authorities must bear the responsibility for the safety of all humanity; this cannot be taken lightly.
With official coordination, the bridged planet has opened up many visitor accounts. The First Star of China has once again acquired holographic technology, significantly increasing the number of players to around 10 billion, and opening even more visitor accounts. However, it's temporarily impossible to allow everyone to come over because the planet's expansion is underway.
There's nowhere to go now, so coming here won't help.
As for how long it will take to build...
The planet's owner, looking at the continuous flow of financial aid, said that it was still a little short, just a little short.
Qingfengyi is also actively promoting its beauty, with the Dragon Journey Project seeing increased investment. Many copyrights have been released at reduced prices, allowing artisans and cultural enthusiasts from other planets to disseminate and create works, with patent fees being virtually negligible.
There's also the Qingfengyi Museum, which will soon establish a branch on a planet connected to Qingfengyi. Several other planets that have partnered with Qingfengyi and been renamed Huaxia Planet have also established branches. The works from these branches are aggregated at headquarters via holographic displays for everyone to enjoy, purchase, and vote on. For this, Qingfengyi spent over 300 billion to purchase full network connectivity rights, meaning unlimited access for internet users. However, purchasing full network connectivity wasn't that expensive; after all, it only requires opening a port on the star network of other planets.
Qingfengyi also purchased client access permissions, meaning that while other interstellar people might not be able to access the star network of a certain planet, or would have to pay to do so, access to Qingfengyi's museum is free, and they don't even need to pay to access the first star domain network of China.
On Huaxia First Star, access is only granted to all users of Qingfengyi; other domains are not permitted.
In this respect, Qingfengyi is more powerful than Wuyuan Qimeng. Wuyuan Qimeng requires money for non-official personnel, retirees, and local planet residents to enter.
It failed to pay the local area network fees for all citizens.
But Qingfengyi did it!
Although the StarNet is a universal network, it consists of separate regions, much like the various apps in Lin Shuying's previous life. They appear interconnected, but are actually independent. Joining a particular network requires paying an access fee; it's not something you can just do whenever you want.
But Qingfengyi's museum broke down this wall by buying all its network access permissions.
The 300 billion figure only represents the official figure; there are also numerous agreements signed with the planet's lord on Huaxia's First Star side. However, if Qingfeng wants to break free from the game's fundamental limitations, he must break through from elsewhere, and a museum is a very good idea.
Then came copyright concessions and collaborations, blossoming across the board!
The results are very good; Qingfengyi is gaining more and more followers, and her works are becoming more popular.
Lin Shuying has also begun preparations for the next event.
She'd been feeling down lately because of the tech mogul's situation, which wasn't really conducive to creative work. But thanks to this buffer, her physical and mental health had improved significantly. She was in a state of inner conflict; her physical condition was good, but her mental state was a bit off. The thought of the tech mogul being forced to rise again with such intense pressure was causing her to visibly lose weight.
That's scary.
Lin Qiaoqiao and the others were very worried because being a little overweight wasn't a big deal. If someone was physically weak but hadn't lost weight, it was fine. But once they did lose weight…
It's hard to say for sure.
The original owner's parents felt so sorry for her that they finally couldn't help but talk to her.
The original owner's mother remained silent for a long time before saying, "We hope we can help you, but we don't know how."
Lin Shuying asked, "Will you be sad when you find out what happened?"
The original owner's mother couldn't hold back her tears. "How could I not be sad? But I won't blame you, nor will I blame the authorities. It's just that I selfishly accepted her sacrifice for my child's sake, which is a bit undeserved... But this is something we have to bear, selfishly helping my child acknowledge this sacrifice. At the same time, I hope you are doing well. We love you like your parents do."
When the topic turned to her parents, Lin Shuying's pent-up emotions broke down instantly.
That's how I feel. If no one says it out loud, I might just sob a little under the covers. But once someone points it out and tries to comfort me, even the strongest person can't hold it in.
"I'm sorry, I don't have your kindness and broad perspective. I utterly despise this world; why did you have to bring me here? I have a career I love, I'm at the prime of my life, I have parents who love me dearly, friends I get along with, and a comfortable environment. Although the technology and benefits aren't as good as here,... everything I love is there..."
Speaking of this, the grievances and resentments I've accumulated over the years are like a tsunami, crashing against my heart with a sharp pain.
The original owner's mother listened and cried along with her, saying, "You're a good child..."
After calming down, Lin Shuying said guiltily, "I'm sorry..."
Both involve losing the most important person in a relationship, but the pain of parents losing their children is no less than that of children losing their parents.
The original owner's mother touched her long hair and said, "I've never seen my daughter with long hair before, nor have I seen her like this after she grew up... She's exceptionally beautiful."
The original owner's father said, "If you're willing, we can be your parents too. We hope you can experience more joy and happiness here."
Lin Shuying remained silent; they're both adults. Calling someone "Mom" or "Dad" is easy, but calling them sincerely is difficult. In this situation, there's no need to call them insincerely.
