Eight o 'clock in the evening, July 25th.
Storm called his business assistant, Muradick, at the Green Lake Hotel and ordered him to start the mission.
After Storm gave the order, he checked the LIP Lens information processor pre-sale website on Dream Entertainment's official website.
Due to the pre-sale rules of the LIP Lens Information Processor, which vaguely supported the scalpers' behavior, Storm was very bold this time. All the people who were part of his group had a unified 'FB' prefix on their pre-sale accounts.
Storm refreshed the reservation list on the presale page. In less than 30 seconds, a long list of accounts with the name 'FB' quickly refreshed the reservation list page.
About five minutes later, Muradick called and reported, "Boss, we have completed the pre-order of 70,000 LIP Lens information processors. Do you want to continue?"
The total price of 70,000 LIP Lens Information Processors was 700 million USD. What Muradik meant was to ask if Storm would continue to buy LIP Lens Information Processors.
"Continue!
We will order as many LIP Lens information processors as we have!
I have prepared five billion USD. If it's not enough, we will continue to increase! "
Storm was very confident in the LIP Lens information processor. In fact, Storm did not plan to stock up on LIP Lens information processors on a large scale.
Being a scalper to make money was not a glorious thing for Storm.
However, Storm chose to invest in Jian Wushuang and Tao Wenxian. Storm needed a lot of money.
Although Storm was very rich, it did not mean that Storm could use as much money as he wanted. After using it, there had to be a reason.
Whether the investment failed or the purchase of luxury goods, there had to be a record of its use.
If Storm invested the money directly in Tao Wenxian and Jian Wushuang's research project, it would be more difficult because the other party would not provide any evidence.
Therefore, Storm decided to make money to deal with this problem.
No matter how he spent the money he earned, his family would not say anything.
At 8: 20 AM, Storm's scalper team had already bought close to 500,000 sets of LIP lens information processors.
At the same time, the pre-sale number of LIP Lens information processors had exceeded 700,000.
Obviously, there were other big scalpers behind the scenes who were hyping up the LIP Lens information processors.
The drastic change in the pre-sale system of the LIP Lens information processors attracted the attention of some players on the official forum.
One of them, 'Top of the Century', posted a post that pointed out the problem with the pre-sale system.
…
"Dream Entertainment Publicly Cheated, Treating Players Around the World as Idiots?"
Players around the world, hello!
As everyone knew, Dream Entertainment's pre-sale LIP Lens information processors had been confirmed by many players that it was a terrible product.
Every player who submitted a's experience report was a well-known player in the Hero's World of Heroes.
In addition, there was also Storm, the number one person in the Hero's World, so there was no need to doubt this piece of information.
Dream Entertainment had already set up a trap for a failed product. They used an overbearing clause to forcefully restrict that once a reservation was made, it would not be returned unless there was a problem with the quality.
From this, it could be seen that Dream Entertainment had predicted that the LIP Lens Information Processor would not satisfy the players.
Which was why they had set a pre-sale.
Now, Dream Entertainment came up with another plan. They started to tamper with the pre-sale data.
I've been paying attention to Dream Entertainment's pre-sale system. At 8: 00 PM, the pre-sale number of LIP Lens information processors was less than 10,000.
However, 20 minutes later, the pre-sale number of LIP Lens information processors exceeded 700,000.
Could it be that 700,000 players bought the LIP Lens information processors in just 20 minutes?
Especially now that the LIP Lens information processors are all negative comments, there are still so many players pre-ordering the LIP Lens information processors?
Looking at the account information of the players who pre-ordered, all of them are similar accounts. I dare to say that Dream Entertainment is behind this!
As for Dream Entertainment's actions, I only have one thing to say: F * ck, shameless!
…
Following the popularity of this post, a large number of players, regardless of whether they could afford the LIP Lens Information Processor or not, maintained their formation and replied, "F * ck, shameless!"
Dream Entertainment's LIP Lens information processors and the company's reputation are in danger.
Although the players won't stop supporting Dream Entertainment and give up on the Brave World because of this incident, the products of the Brave World will be boycotted by the players.
Shi Lei looked at the post with a helpless expression on his face. Then, he created an account called "Mysterious Game Insider [True]" and posted a post on the official players' forum.
…
"Beware of scalpers!
Beware of all kinds of shills! "
Brothers and sisters, I only have one thing to say: beware of scalpers. They're working together to set up a trap.
According to my information, the guy above 'Summit of the Century' is a ghostwriter from another game company. We can't rule out the possibility that he's defaming Dream Entertainment, but I'm more inclined to believe that he's receiving money from scalpers to promote them.
I also looked at the LIP Lens information processor's reservation page. The prefixes that appear the most are 'FB', 'Light', 'EU', 'AS', and 'MS'.
Let's make a bold guess: 'FB' should be the abbreviation for 'Storm', right?
I have to admit that Storm is very smart. He's from Lijian Province, but he chose to use Xia Xia's pinyin abbreviation.
Based on Storm's previous record of being a scalper, it's very likely that he's Storm this time!
Could 'Light' be the Priest of Holy Light from Lijian Province?
It's no secret that the Priest of Holy Light has a good relationship with Storm. Moreover, this person is also a tycoon, so he won't lack the funds to be a scalper.
I can't determine 'EU' for now, but could it be the abbreviation for Greater Europe?
I can't determine 'AS' and 'MS' for now, but the total number of LIP Lens information processors with these prefixes is more than 100,000!
And it's still increasing rapidly!
Dear players, I've already made a mistake once. Are you going to make a mistake too?
No matter what you think, I've already reserved 11 sets!
I'll keep one set for my own use. As for the other 10 sets, I'll increase the price by 1,000 USD each to earn back the cost of my own use!
Don't call me a scalper. Compared to an account with 'FB' as the prefix, what am I?
I've already reserved more than 400,000 sets. This is the real scalper!
…
In the official player forum, when the post of 'Mysterious Game Insider [True]' was posted, some players immediately realized what was going on. Originally, they felt that this matter was revealing something strange.
They didn't expect that it was a scalper who hyped it up.
Damn it!
However, when a large number of players flooded the pre-sale page of the LIP Lens information processor, they found that the pre-sale number of the LIP Lens information processor had already exceeded 900,000. There were only less than 60,000 LIP Lens information processors left to be pre-ordered.
The players who had just woken up from their stupor immediately made their reservations.
However, the less than 60,000 LIP Lens information processors had to be pre-ordered by more than 3 million players. This was simply a tragedy.
In less than a minute, a 'sold out' sign appeared on the pre-sale page of the LIP Lens information processor. The entire page turned black and white, indicating that the service was no longer provided.
Naturally, a large number of players who didn't purchase the LIP Lens information processor were very dissatisfied with this result.
They returned to the official player forum and scolded Dream Entertainment for not doing anything. They also scolded the scalpers for going too far.
However, when they scolded Dream Entertainment, some players mocked and ridiculed them.
This group of players said that when the LIP Lens information processor was being blacklisted, why didn't these players pre-order it?
Why didn't they believe in Dream Entertainment?
Now they have the face to criticize Dream Entertainment?
The players who were attacked immediately pointed their fingers at the scalpers, especially Storm. This guy was the first to post about the LIP Lens information processor and immediately became the target of the players' attacks.
Storm didn't hesitate and didn't hesitate to clear his name. Storm posted that his previous post wasn't to criticize the LIP Lens information processor, but to praise the LIP Lens information processor.
This showed that the LIP Lens information processor was indeed not a myth. It had surpassed the myth!
The players were speechless about Storm's sophistry.
Some smart players suddenly thought of 'Mysterious Game Insider (True)' who said that he had bought 11 sets of LIP Lens information processors and would sell 10 sets with a price increase of 1,000 USD for each set.
These players immediately contacted 'Mysterious Game Insider (True)' on the website, hoping to buy a set of LIP Lens information processors with a price increase.
Shi Lei agreed without hesitation to the players who wanted to buy it. The reason why he used "Mysterious Game Insider [True]" to increase the price of the LIP Lens Information Processor by a thousand dollars was to set a standard for the other scalpers. This was to prevent the scalpers from increasing the price too much and dampen the enthusiasm of the players to buy it.
When 'Mysterious Game Insider (True)' sold the LIP Lens information processors on the official virtual item trading system, the scalpers were also eager to make a move!
