Title: The things sold at the Ghost Festival Fair of CEO Company are too hardcore! !

Main Building: That’s how it is. The host was lucky enough to go in before the limit of the garden fair. I thought it was rare to come back empty-handed, but I didn’t want the coffin and urn. This is not the live broadcast of the hanged ghost sister the night before. Well, plus my grandpa likes calligraphy, so I went to the seventh booth and bought a piece of brush calligraphy for my grandpa. My grandpa liked it very much after receiving it, and kept praising that the calligraphy was very good.

Then the hardcore thing came. My grandfather was a member of the local calligraphy association. Two days ago, he took that calligraphy to the calligraphy association for exchange, but he came back and told me that he suspected that the calligraphy was the authentic work of a dead calligrapher... …

1L: ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

2L: ? ? ? ?Really, really hardcore?

3L: Spray it, the host should make it clear

……

Landlord: It’s unbelievable. It’s a calligrapher who passed away just two years ago. His name is Wu Qiyi. Anyway, people of our generation probably don’t know him very well, but what they say is swearing. After various analyses, I finally came to the conclusion that this is the original work of Mr. Wu, and a member of their association would pay a high price to buy it from my grandfather, which made me almost wonder if the stall owner accidentally mixed in the original work for sale. ...

89L: Suddenly can't understand the plot?

90L: Wait, it can't really be an authentic work, can it?Landlord don't scare me!

91L: Wow, the host made a lot of money!

92L: I also remembered when the landlord said that I bought a small coffin as a backpack ornament, and then a colleague of mine took it to see, and said that the wood of the coffin was very good, and it should come from the deep mountains. I didn’t have it at the time. Thinking about it, when the landlord said this, I suddenly...

93L: Upstairs, compared to the material of the coffin, I think you who use the coffin as a decoration are more hardcore

93L: So did the landlord sell it?

Landlord: What are you thinking?How could it be authentic? ? ? ?I saw that the stall owner wrote it well?It’s not for sale either... I told them the truth, and they calmed down a bit later, but they still found someone to appraise it, and finally confirmed that the writing was indeed new, and the ink hadn’t even dried out. How could it be dead? Authentic works of people for several years.However, they said that the level of imitation of this painting is very high. It is estimated that it will take many years to learn from Mr. Wu, and now they have been asking me to help them buy a few more. Although it is not an authentic work, this level is also very valuable for collection... …

135L: ………the curved one

136L: If you want to say that, it’s really hard core. Let me tell you this story: Sister Hanged Ghost said that the owner of the seventh stall was a famous calligrapher “in his lifetime”, and then this stall owner really imitated an old calligrapher. The calligraphy of the deceased calligrapher, and the level of imitation is particularly high... Emmm, the world plot of this garden fair is really complete.

137L: Damn, that's really an immersive experience, a bug-free garden party, it's too hardcore! ! ! ! ! !

138L: Am I the only one who finds it weird?It's just a garden party, is it necessary to do this?Haven't you thought of other possibilities?

139L: Upstairs, I have the same thought as you... I'm a little hairy now

140L: Don't scare me before the day, isn't it true that people are not allowed?

141L: To be honest, this technology and effect cannot be produced without a professional team. If the company is not doing it to make money, it is simply an activity for employees to play, and it is impossible to achieve this level...

142L: Why did you keep talking more and more truth?Don't you want to say that the stall owner is really Mr. Wu who has passed away?I'll make a joke first

143L: Add 1 upstairs, if the owner of the stall is Mr. Wu, then the whole ghost market will be full of ghosts, okay?

……

454L: Stop arguing ahead, I got the news. Our company just informed us that there will be a staff event next month. We invited the team from the CEO company to come over and plan it. We want to replicate the ghost market in our company... and not only our company, I heard that several big companies are looking for them to cooperate.

455L: ? ? ? ? ?It's really TM's turn, so the CEO's technology is so good, in fact, it's just that they really have this business, right? ? ? ?

457L: It's really funny to see the arguing for a long time. How come there are people who really feel it?

458L: In this way, it makes perfect sense. Since it is used to make money, it is necessary to design every link carefully, but I still have to say: they are so hardworking and worthy of support!

458L: ...==It is reasonable to suspect that the Ghost Festival Fair itself is a test of publicity!

459L: Wow, I’d be happy if it’s true, I’m praying online that our company can also invite them to hold an event!

460L: Can ghost markets really be replicated?Ahhh, I want to buy something!

……

888L: Ladies and gentlemen, hurry up and visit the official blog of Jinglu Future! ! ! !They launched a ghost market shopping applet called "Fengdu Ghost Market", where you can buy ghost market products! ! !

……

The Fengdu Ghost Market applet was naturally developed by Yu Zhengdu. After the garden fair, netizens gave good feedback on the Ghost Market products, and the vendors in the Ghost Market also benefited.

After Yu Zhengdu thought about it, he developed a small shopping program. This program is very simple and only provides consumers with the functions of goods and ordering.

Because the networks of Yin and Yang are not connected, in order to realize transactions between the two worlds, Luo Feng needs to export the order data and send it to the seller in the underworld. Therefore, the order backgrounds on both sides are actually separated, and Luo Feng needs to start in the middle. to the role of an intermediary.

There are not many types of goods in the ghost market, and the things are curious, so the sales volume will not be really good, but for the sellers in the underworld, although they don’t make much money, they are all the currency of the yang world, which can be used to buy materials in the yang world. The daily needs of ghosts are mainly made of paper products, so the purchasing power is still very high when the exchange rate is converted.

Because of the simplicity of the program, Luo Feng invested very little, and did not expect to make money from it. He only charged a symbolic platform fee. The main purpose was to help the people of the underworld achieve a prosperous life.

Of course, occasional minor problems are unavoidable.

On this day, Yu Zhengdu finished a meeting with the subsidiary company and the development department, and went to Luo Feng with his computer to report to Shang Que. As soon as he entered Luo Feng's office, he saw a strange-looking female ghost Lai who was in charge of the ghost market. Chen Yangli, who works on the platform, refused to leave, and kept saying: "Please give me another chance, I will be very careful in the future."

Chen Yangli had black lines on his face, and said helplessly: "It's really not possible, you have a serious accident, we have regulations, and I can't help you..."

Yu Zhengdu curiously sent a message asking what was going on with Kang Jin.

Kang Jin replied quickly: [This is an embroidered skirt sold in Fengdu Ghost Market. Yesterday, Yangli received complaints from consumers, saying that the skirt received was made of paper. 】

Yu Zhengdu: [………………Wrong delivery? 】

Kang Jin: [Well, she sent out the clothes she was wearing]

Kang Jin: [Fortunately, consumers didn't think too much about it, otherwise we would have to find a way to get it back]

Yu Zhengdu understands that the trade between Yin and Yang is a major event, and there are many things that need to be paid attention to and avoided. Therefore, Luo Feng is very strict in the management of sellers in the underworld, such as sending things from the underworld to people in the underworld by mistake. What happened was a first-degree mistake, and Luo Feng couldn't be flexible on this point.

Sure enough, the female ghost still wanted to intercede again, but when she saw Shang Que come out, she glanced at her lightly: "Do you still want to be reincarnated?"

Female ghost: "..." Get up decisively and leave.

Yu Zhengdu waved his hand at Shang Que, and said with a smile, "Boss, it's just in time for me to report to you."

Shang Que's expression softened all of a sudden, he walked over slowly, pulled a chair over, and sat down gracefully: "Speak."

Yu Zhengdu turned his laptop in the direction of Shang Que, and knocked out an interface: "These are the contents of my discussion with Erica. The development of our app side is progressing smoothly. Let me talk about my part first, and her part will wait for her." I'll talk to you..."

While speaking, he pressed another key, ready to call out his own documents, but he slipped his hand and accidentally called out his web browsing history.

Yu Zhengdu: "..."

He tensed up, pressed the hidden button extremely quickly, and then opened his document again as if nothing had happened, and said, "This is the follow-up plan of the background system. Our cooperation with the app is like this..."

Yu Zheng Watanabe said while looking at Shang Que's expression from the corner of his eye, and saw that he was listening very seriously, and he didn't seem to be affected by the browsing page just now, and he didn't know if he didn't see it or didn't care, no matter what , he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Shang Que listened to Yu Zhengdu's report calmly, and when he returned to his office, he immediately looked outside the door to make sure no one was disturbing him, so he turned on his computer a little nervously, logged into the forum and posted: I Spotted someone I know searching for me online?After being seen by me, he hid immediately, and secretly watched my reaction!what does he mean?

Although Yu Zhengdu quickly cut off the screen just now, he has already seen everything. The search content of Yu Zhengdu's entire browsing page is all: Luofeng Mountain Ghost King!

Shang Que clicked refresh nervously. Netizens seemed not interested in his question, and the reply was only a few chats:

1L: Is the landlord here to show his affection?

2L: Is there any other purpose, love you secretly, next question

3L: Hehe, burnt

Shang Que:! ! !

Diyang Qinglian Temple.

As one of the most well-known Taoist temples in China, Qinglian Temple has always been very popular, but this day is especially crowded. Yu Zhengdu and Shangque arrived not too late, and the ticket office has stopped selling tickets. It is still the little Taoist Yuan Qing came out and brought them in.

Looking at the bustling crowd in the temple, Yu Zhengdu was shocked: "Your Taoist temple is so full of incense?"

"No, no." Yuan Qing explained, "It just so happened that my master gave a lecture today, and many pilgrims came here from other places to listen."

"Oh." After saying this, Yu Zhengdu understood that Daoist Mu is a well-known master of Taoism, and he probably doesn't show up easily at ordinary times. When he lectures, it is not surprising how many people come, no wonder Qinglian Temple began to limit the flow early in the morning.

Yu Zhengdu smiled and said, "It's rare for Taoist Master Mu to give a lecture, so shouldn't we also join in the show?"

"Hey, no need." Yuan Qing said, "The content of this lecture is my master's recent experience in scientific cultivation combined with the basic principles of Marxism. Didn't you get full marks in the Ma and Philosophy class? Maybe your understanding in this area is better than that of others. My master is still deep."

Yu Zhengdu: "..."

Shang Que nodded in agreement: "Zhengdu is very talented in cultivating the Tao."

Yu Zhengdu couldn't hold back and asked, "Is there any necessary connection between Ma Zhe's perfect score in the test and his talent in cultivation?"

Before Shang Que could speak, Yuan Qing answered first: "Of course, both of them require a certain amount of philosophical thinking and strong spiritual strength, so those with full marks in the Ma Zhe test should not be too bad at practicing Taoism."

My boy who loves to laugh will not be too bad luck!

Yu Zhengdu almost asked: Taoist priest, do you still remember that you are a Taoist priest?

But in the end, he only twitched the corners of his mouth, and said weakly: "Master Dao, let's go and see the product."

"Oh, yes, this way please." Yuan Qing then remembered the business, and quickly led them to the back hall where tourists can't go, while introducing them, "Now I'm mainly in the factory in the city. While doing research, I only returned to the monastery when I was practicing Taoism. This used to be our warehouse in the monastery, but my master was worried that I would have no place to play in the monastery, so he set aside a corner for me to use as a laboratory..."

laboratory……

Yu Zhengdu suddenly heard such a modern name as a laboratory among the classical architectural names of archways, mountain gates, and various halls in Qinglian Temple, and he couldn't help feeling magical.

"It's here." Yuan Qing stopped in front of a big house, reached out and took out a bunch of keys, and said, "Oh, this key is too troublesome, I am suggesting to the master to replace all the doors in Guanli with combination locks or Fingerprint locked."

Yu Zhengdu: "...Oh." The Taoist leader, who enjoys the convenience of modern technology, may no longer be able to bear the hardships of traditional life.

Yuan Qing opened the door, and a few people walked into the room, and saw that the room had been redecorated, with a lot of modern equipment placed, it really looked like a laboratory.

In one corner of the room there are neatly stacked cardboard boxes, all of which are printed with the same big characters: Qinglian Watching X Scaring Heron Future.

On the big table next to it, there were several unpacked boxes. Yuan Qing excitedly took out a square white machine from the box and handed it to Yu Zhengdu: "This is the Yin Qi purifier we developed."

Yes, Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que specially came to Diyang this time, precisely because the Yin Qi purifier jointly produced by Qinglianguan and Jinglu Future was finally successfully developed and officially put into production.

After deciding to develop the Yin Qi purifier, Luo Feng specially registered a subsidiary company and hired professional engineers to develop it with Yuan Qing. The engineer was responsible for solving the technical problems of the machine, and Yuan Qing was responsible for solving the problems of magic tools and Taoism. .

This cooperation is just a test of the water. Neither Qinglianguan nor Luo Feng has its own factory, and it is impossible to invest in a factory. Therefore, the two sides made a compromise, and finally rented a foundry factory in Diyang City to experiment. After successful R&D, it will be outsourced directly to the foundry for production. This is also a popular "asset-light" production model among many technology companies, and it is suitable for small start-up companies.

Several engineers from Jinglu Future will also be dispatched to work here, as long as they report the work situation to Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que regularly.

The machine itself of the Yin air purifier mainly adopts the principle of the traditional air purifier, and the structure is not complicated. The real difficulty in research and development lies in the built-in Yin air filter. After Yuan Qing solved this problem, the research and development was basically successful.

"We have done hundreds of experiments in the wild, deserted tombs, cemeteries, haunted houses, and feng shui places, and obtained a large amount of experimental data." Yuan Qing said while opening a laptop next to him, and opened a form for Yu Zhengdu and the others saw, "Now we have successfully controlled the scope and effect of Yin Qi purification within a stable and ideal range. Normally, an area within [-] square meters can be covered and purified, which can fully meet the daily needs of a well-off family. need."

Yu Zhengdu glanced at his experimental records, which were indeed very detailed and scientific.

Shang Que switched on the power of one of them with great interest, turned it on and experienced it, and then gave a high degree of affirmation to the product.

Yu Zhengdu asked casually, "How are the sales going now?"

Because the purifier is produced in the factory here in Diyang, and the pilgrims of Qinglianguan are the main target customer group of this product, so after it is put into production, the first batch of products will be shipped to Qinglianguan for initial sales testing. Then calculate the production quantity of the second batch according to the sales feedback.

Seeing Yuan Qing's originally radiant face collapsed: "We produced a total of [-] units in the first batch. It has been almost a week since we started selling, and we have sold... two units in total."

Yu Zhengdu: "...Two?"

Although he had long expected that the initial sales would not be very good, after all, this product sounds a bit beyond common sense, and the general public's acceptance is not expected to be too high.

But even among the believers of Qinglian Temple, only two units were sold, which is too bleak.

Yuan Qing sighed, and said: "Everyone thinks the price of the purifier is too high, they would rather buy a few more talismans back."

Yu Zhengdu heard the words clearly, the cost of the purifier is there, the pricing and talismans are naturally not in the same level range, and it is normal for most people not to buy it when the functions and effects are not well understood.

He comforted: "It's okay, sell it slowly, there will always be people who appreciate good things."

"I understand." Yuan Qing glanced at the pile of cardboard boxes next to him, and his tone could not hide his frustration, "But now the inventory is backlogged, and if our R&D and production costs invested in the early stage cannot be recovered, I will not be able to carry out the second-generation development. .”

Yu Zhengdu sputtered: "...you're starting to think about the second generation now?"

"Yes." Yuan Qing nodded, and there was light in his eyes, "This research and development work has given me a lot of inspiration. I think our second generation can add more functions, such as the concentration of Yin Qi exceeding the standard." Usually it’s a negative thing, if we can calculate the concentration of Yin Qi produced by different negative things at different distances, then we can add a reminder function to the purifier to tell consumers what evil they may have bumped into..."

Yu Zhengdu couldn't explain it in words: "...I think consumers may not want such detailed functions."

Yuan Qing was puzzled: "Will it be?"

The corner of Yu Zhengdu's mouth twitched, and he teased: "You might as well make a one-button alarm function. When the Yin Qi reaches a concentration that may hit evil, the system will directly alarm with one button. We will also provide after-sales services for exorcising evil spirits and catching ghosts..."

Yuan Qing's eyes lit up: "It makes sense."

Yu Zhengdu: "..."

He was just talking nonsense.

The author has something to say: Yu Zhengdu: Taoist priests are really good at science!
