Chapter 357: The Salesperson Who Doesn't Sell Products



Three days after the sales recruitment fair at Ideal Paradise ended, a message about Ideal Paradise collecting game character templates from all over the internet suddenly appeared online.

Although it didn't heat up to the top of trending lists, it absolutely blew up within the gaming community.

The message stated: From December 23rd to December 30th, for a period of seven days, Ideal Paradise issued a call for 100,000 "Tomorrow" game character templates across the internet.

Each character template that our company adopts will receive a reward of one hundred yuan, and the player templates named after individuals will be permanently recorded in the "Tomorrow" developers' register.

We sincerely invite everyone to participate actively in this event, let's create a new AAA masterpiece together!

—Development Department of Ideal Paradise Network Technology Co., Ltd.

A simple black and white minimalist recruitment poster was posted by a game blogger on Dou Ying.

Suddenly, the comments section started a fervent discussion.

"Incredible, 100,000 character templates? Does this game need so many NPCs?"

"Brother, did you actually read the announcement? It said player templates..."

"Player templates? Damn, was there a typo in the announcement? How could there be 100,000 player templates? Doesn't a normal game have just a few character templates and then everyone chooses when they enter the game?"

"Yeah, I also think it must be a typo, it's absurd!"

The comments section was buzzing with discussion, some people believed that there was a typo in Ideal Paradise's announcement, as 100,000 player character templates seemed ludicrous.

They had never seen a game need so many player characters, and even NPCs wouldn't amount to 100,000!

That would make the game incredibly large!

Could Ideal Paradise really be developing an AAA title? Isn't this a company that makes casual games?

"There's a link above, brothers, I'm going to try and see if I can get in!"

"No need to look, I already checked it out, it's real, and I even earned a hundred yuan! Check the video on my profile if you don't believe me!"

Just as everyone was confused and uncertain, finally someone stood out and proved the validity of the announcement.

Lots of netizens clicked into his Dou Ying profile and indeed found a video.

In the video, the blogger submitted a 1,000-word character backstory and template through the link to Ideal Paradise official and provided his Alipay mobile payment number and email address.

After waiting for three minutes, both his mobile number and email received notifications that the template had been approved.

And the one hundred yuan was promptly deposited into his Alipay account.

The entire task, not counting the time to write the template, took about ten minutes.

Ten minutes for a hundred yuan!

This immediately got a lot of freeloaders excited, as according to the video, the task was indeed very easy.

Just write a little about the character's background, then design their personality, habits, specialties, etc.

From the look of the template, you don't even need 1,000 words; five to six hundred would suffice.

For such a simple task, Ideal Paradise was incredibly generous with a reward of one hundred yuan!

"They really are loaded! 100,000 templates, one hundred yuan each, Ideal Paradise is throwing in ten million just like that!"

"Absurd, they can't really be planning to put all these character templates in the game, can they?"

"That's ten million! They can't possibly be making it up...! Enough said, I'm off to do the task, I'm going to write myself into it, so later when I play the game, I can choose myself!"

After watching the video, the comments section fired up with discussion again, and eventually, everyone unanimously agreed that this was a task that had to be done!

Even if not for the hundred yuan, they wanted to pass the task assessment and have their experiences, stories, and interests featured in the game's player character repository!

If this game really gets developed in the future, those named would truly be considered founders!

Thus, as word spread from one person to ten, ten to a hundred, even though many were chasing after money, there was still a portion genuinely eager to contribute to Ideal Paradise's game.

Currently, there's no true AAA title in the country. If Ideal Paradise could accomplish this, it wouldn't only add another game to the circle but would also change how international developers perceive the domestic scene.

What fills the market now are games designed just to rake in cash, crazily gold-digging with endless in-game purchases, even buy-to-play games often have many expensive collectible addons.

Moreover, a bunch of companies claim to be leaders of the AAA gaming industry, yet produce nothing but trashy games.

The domestic market isn't lacking in games, just in good ones, because not many manufacturers are serious about making games.

As long as it makes money, they couldn't care less about the essence and significance of a game.

Although there's been continuous buzz about Black Myth in recent years, and official announcements always create massive stir.

But so far, everyone has only seen a trailer; as for the actual game, even internal testing hadn't started yet.

From Ideal Paradise's recent open call for player beta testers, it was clear Ideal Paradise wasn't short on funds and was even willing to spend big!

This instantly sent everyone's blood racing.

If Ideal Paradise was charging ahead, then these hundred thousand people were indeed lending a hand.

Regardless of whether the game eventually gets developed or not, everyone will have left a mark.

Many people, holding various thoughts, surged into the link, and some astute individuals discovered that Ideal Paradise had opened an official account on Dou Ying.

"@Ideal Paradise Official, are you there? Draw me a qualification for the application."

"@Ideal Paradise Official, are you smashing this game to death with your funding?!

"Stop talking, I've already submitted several, each one approved, made a few hundred already, you guys better charge too!"

Soon, fewer people spoke in the comments section, many envious of the blogger's earnings.

That was too easy!

A few hundred might not seem much, but for many college students, that was half a month's living expenses.

Especially since the major demographic on Dou Ying were college students, plus spontaneous promotions, the hype was gradually gaining momentum.

Meanwhile, Yu's training for the new sales staff was almost concluding.

"That's it for today's training, everyone can choose to stay and help at the office or go home and rest! Remember to read more books!"

"Remember, your task now is not to get others to buy our company's products, but to spend money to take them back."

"Got it?"

Yu shouted loudly.

"Understood!" a group of sales staff immediately stood up and shouted in unison!

Although some were still confused, weren't they salespeople? Why else should they pay others?

But seeing Yu's serious expression, they could only nod their heads and shout along.

Just then, Kang Jia suddenly walked in, holding a laptop.

"President, the traffic is overwhelming, our servers can't cope."

Yu glanced at Kang Jia and waved his hand, saying, "I understand, keep adding servers!"

Kang Jia's face lit up, and he quickly responded, "Right away!"
