Super Spender - Chapter 133
Chapter 133: Chapter 130: Seriously Considering Everyone’s Suggestions
Translator: 549690339
Players in the game and on the discussion forum soon started talking non-stop. Indeed, one player was right when he said that small changes can bring about significant shifts. One or two people won’t make much of a difference, but 200 certainly do. Despite being outnumbered by over a hundred, they managed to hold their own. Of course, this was mostly due to Olivia Thatcher’s skillful handling. Had it been anyone else, the outcome might not have been the same.
Blade’s alliance couldn’t accept such a result, and there were several rounds of back-and-forth skirmishes. However, the power of 200 fully upgraded accounts in Olivia Thatcher’s control simply excel, in both skill and agility, way beyond normal players. Moreover, delays that typically plague normal player connections were non-existent for Olivia Thatcher. Her commands were directly executed on the server without delay, making for swift kills!
Eventually, most of Finn Lewis’s high-level accounts were automatically struck dead by the system’s heavenly thunder for excessive killing before being finally dismissed. By then, Blade’s alliance couldn’t muster many players.
While most enjoyed player-killing, being repeatedly defeated was not fun. Persistence only led to more frustration and defeat.
The final result was unmistakeable. The entire server’s World Channel was filled with condolences for Blade’s alliance, drawing gleeful comments from neutral players and dungeon-enthusiasts.
“Blade, you should kick *Village out ASAP! His provocation is too powerful! You guys were screwed over once, don’t you guys learn your lesson? Now it’s happening for the second time.”
“Haha, Sawyer Mitchell said he wouldn’t buy plane tickets, and so he didn’t! However, instead of plane tickets, he directly bought accounts. I just checked the Treasure Pavilion, and all 200 top-rated accounts were bought and transferred to this area.”
“I wonder if *Village is naturally taunting, attracting so much hate. The Blade alliance is pretty much done for. I want to know, will WY die at Savvyer Mitchell’s hands because of your provocations?”
“I gotta admit, your conjecture is quite something. But it’s very possible! If Sawyer Mitchell could casually shell out over a hundred million, I don’t know how much he owns, but buying WY should be no problem, right? Also, WY is listed on the North Federation’s Nasdaq, worth roughly tens of billions of Federal coins. Although there’s some gap, it’s not too big.”
“But real talk, buying a company isn’t necessarily as easy as wanting it and buying it, right? The other party also has to be willing to sell. Meanwhile, everyone, even the GM monitoring the data backstage, is seriously discussing whether Finn Lewis should buy NW.”
Seeing this, Finn Lewis contemplates a bit and decides he shouldn’t disappoint everyone’s expectations. He issues a World Command: “I’ll take everyone’s suggestions seriously. To tell you the truth, my major does have some connections with gaming. I’ve previously considered buying a game company for fun, and WY does seem like a good choice, albeit a bit pricey.”
Finn Lewis’s World Command immediately stirred an outcry, and for once, no one mocked him. Many who flaunt their wealth in games get ridiculed, but not Finn Lewis. It’s simply because Finn has demonstrated his extraordinary strength! If you can, go ahead and invest a hundred million in a game or buy 200 flying horse accounts to play around with! Furthermore, it’s highly likely the 200+ flying horse accounts are controlled by Finn Lewis’s associates.
As for the background and identity everyone imagined for Finn Lewis, he gave no response. Blade’s alliance likely had a tough time ahead. After assigning tasks to Olivia Thatcher, Finn Lewis logged out and went to sleep. It was already around 3-4am, and if he didn’t sleep now, he wouldn’t be able to get up the next day. If the traders in Great Britain knew that Finn Lewis had spent so much money from the sale on gaming, they’d probably have mixed feelings.
Finn Lewis isn’t one to say things casually. He’s seriously considering the proposed idea. Of all the game companies in the country, WY is the only one that creates its own games instead of Imocking off or localizing others. Of course, that’s not to say doesn’t do localizations – they took over World of Warcraft from Nine Towns.
However, World of Warcraft is not as popular as before, and free-to-play games with in-app-purchases are all the rage in the country. These games are hardly any different from fast food games. The fact that World Command managed to engage players for so long surprised Finn Lewis. The game does have quite a few good features, although there are also many areas where it lacks.
Finn Lewis holds a CAD i game engine, and while he’s not sure what it’s capable of, he has a general idea that a game engine isn’t just for optimizing graphics. Feedback from character interactions, lighting effects, and so on are all encapsulated within the game engine.
With such a powerful game engine, capable of creating filmography, it’s no surprise that any game it creates will be well-received. To put it simply, it can completely outshine any Korean game claiming to have perfect graphics! WY also has a respectable R & D capacity, hence Finn Lewis believes buying WY is a viable option. The only problem is, Finn Lewis doesn’t have that much money yet.
After using up his reserves to buy the Flying Horse private car workshop, he’s left with 300 million Federal coins from a bank loan and just over 100 million Federal coins from the sale of #4, making it just over 400 million Federal coins. With these funds, the idea of buying is laughable. Despite having a low market value, it’s nevertheless worth over tens of billions of Federal coins.
However, while Finn Lewis lacks money, he’s not out of options. After all, he holds many technologies and possesses a formidable assistant – Olivia Thatcher. Zero could not be considered Finn’s assistant because its usage cost is too high.
Lying in bed, Finn Lewis pondered before gradually falling asleep. Developing a game company is feasible since the current gaming market is booming worldwide. The only thing lacking is a fascinating game. For example, globally popular games like League of Legends generate significant revenue. With the key engine for game development in Finn Lewis’s hands, the largest expenditure is cancelled out.. Moreover, the gaming industry yields quick returns, providing Finn Lewis with a steady stream of points, the most important thing of all!
