Master of Trading Star Card Game

Chen Xiao and the lawyer he had appointed came downstairs to the Sanctuary Club.

At the beginning, Sanctuary was not so proud that he could buy a building by himself. The training room and office were all rented out, and the entire club only had about ten people. Apart from agents, publicity, and guild management, the only player was Chen Qianlin.

In the first season, Chen Qianlin lost to Nie Yuandao by a very small margin in the individual competition and won the runner-up.Due to Chen Qianlin’s good image and special temperament, plus the fact that his decks are made of woody trees and flowers, the beautiful flower cards and elegant fighting style are very popular among netizens. Since then, there have been constant advertisements and endorsements, and the club’s income has grown by leaps and bounds. , and the scale continued to expand, buying an entire building within three years.

At that time, although the contract stated [-]% to [-]% of the income, it was bonuses, game tickets and other income. The advertising endorsements that Shao Bo contacted actively were signed separately for [-]% to [-]%; peripheral products sold to fans were also [-]% to [-]%.

In fact, Chen Qianlin should have seen how much Shao Bo liked money, but he was only playing games at the time, and he didn't want to care about the money with his friends, so that Shao Bo made progress and intensified. From the beginning of the fourth season, he even auctioned it off privately without telling Chen Qianlin cards for profit.

By the time Chen Qianlin found out, the matter could not be resolved, and the negotiation failed in the end, so he could only take the legal route.

Chen Xiao was still young at that time, and had just taken the National Unified Examination. His elder brother was afraid of affecting his review, so he didn't tell him about the lawsuit; and he wanted to surprise his elder brother by signing a contract with Shao Bo in private... It can be said that Shao Bo Beau had pinpointed the weaknesses of both brothers quite accurately.

Now standing downstairs again, Chen Xiao had mixed feelings in his heart.He took off his sunglasses, glanced at the familiar building, took a deep breath, walked into the lobby with Lawyer Zhang, and took the elevator to the general manager's office on the top floor.

In the office, Shao Bo was on the phone, saying polite words such as "Mr. Zhang, when will you come over, I will treat you to dinner as the host".

Also in his 30s, Chen Qianlin has a thin body, outstanding temperament, and his appearance is still very young, and there is no trace of age on his face; but the man in front of him is full of oil, and the hairline on the top of his head is terribly high , revealing half of the bald top of the head, and a fat body, it seems that it is the result of eating big fish and meat every day, and the belly is more exaggerated than a pregnant woman.

The appearance of a typical middle-aged nouveau riche is not at all like the big brother next door who played basketball with his brother in his childhood memories.

Chen Xiao was angry at first, but when he saw Shao Bo's appearance, he wanted to laugh.

At this time, standing with Chen Qianlin, he had already lost completely, but he still felt very good about himself.

Chen Xiao stepped forward politely, and waited for the other party to hang up the phone before reaching out his hand and saying, "Mr. Shao, long time no see. My lawyer should have already greeted you, right? I'll come over and formally sign the contract termination agreement."

Shao Bo smiled and said: "Xiao Chen! It's been a long time."

Chen Xiao calmly handed the contract termination letter written in advance by the lawyer to Shao Bo: "During the contract with Shengyu, I was unable to achieve good results in the field due to lack of strength, so after Mr. Shao's consent, I went back to school. Going to study."

Shao Bo said: "Well, are you going well in school? I'm too busy to take care of you."

Chen Xiao: "I'm not as good at playing games as my brother, but I'm good at studying. I have graduated successfully and plan to find a job by myself."

Shao Bo said: "Do you want to work in our Sanctuary Club? Be a guild manager or something?"

Chen Xiao smiled: "Thank you Mr. Shao. When I was studying in school, I never came into contact with the game Star Card Storm. You also gave me a monthly salary of 1500 as usual. We have never violated the provisions of the contract. Now the contract When it expires, I hope the contract can be terminated peacefully, please sign Mr. Shao."

Shao Bo frowned slightly. He always felt that the grown-up Chen Xiao in front of him, although his eyes were calm and his attitude was very polite, but the way he stood in front of him with his back straight had a strange aura. He seemed to be a head shorter than the other, which made him very uncomfortable.

Lawyer Zhang next to him said: "Mr. Shao, we have carefully checked the terms of the contract, and there is a clause in it that says that if the two parties do not sign a written termination agreement within one month before the expiration date, the contract will be automatically renewed. One year. Chen Xiao's contract officially expires on September 9st, so we requested to terminate the contract half a month in advance, and also agreed with the provisions of the contract, hoping that you can fulfill your promise."

Shao Bo raised his eyebrows, and said with a fake smile: "Xiao Chen, you still brought a lawyer here? Are you worried about me?"

Chen Xiao smiled: "I don't understand contracts, and I bring a lawyer to be more professional. I hope you don't mind."

In fact, Shao Bo is too lazy to keep Chen Xiao. Chen Qianlin obviously said that his younger brother is very talented. Who knows that this guy can't support the wall with mud, and he loses the chain every time he plays a game... Thinking of this, Shao Bo picked up the pen very simply sign it.

Chen Xiao gave the contract to the lawyer to read, and when there was no problem, he smiled and said, "Mr. Shao, it's good to get together and get away."

Shao Bo smiled and said: "I also wish you success in your new job."

Chen Xiao turned and left. The moment he turned around, the sharp look in the man's eyes made even the lawyer startled.

After walking out of the Judgment Club, Chen Xiao lowered his voice and asked, "Have the recordings been backed up?"

Lawyer Zhang said: "Don't worry, the written contract termination agreement has legal effect. I will give you a copy of the recording, and I will also back it up here. What he confessed with his own mouth and signed with his own hand, even if you want to go back on your word."

Chen Xiao raised the corner of his mouth: "Okay, thank you for your hard work."

On the way back by car, Chen Xiao felt that the stone that had been pressing on his heart for many years was finally completely removed, and his whole body became extremely relaxed.

Probably Shao Bo would never have dreamed that the impulsive and reckless young man would hide so deeply for five years.It was even more unexpected that to that young man, his elder brother was more important than his own life.

If you just bully him when he is young and ignorant, he may not hold grudges and can only admit his fault.However, your betrayal and injury to his brother - he will never forget it in his life.

Just wait, one day you will pay back ten times.

Chen Xiao stepped on the accelerator, and the silver-white suspension sports car rushed out like a sharp sword on the air lane, and disappeared into the traffic in an instant.

***

Chen Qianlin and Xie Mingzhe had been chatting about card design, and the master and apprentice were very involved in the chat. When Chen Xiao came back, he saw exactly this picture.He hadn't seen such a smile on his brother's face for a long time. Obviously, Xiao Xie was very good at pleasing Master.

Chen Xiao smiled slightly, opened the door and went in, washed the fruit he bought by chance and brought it to the living room.

Chen Qianlin asked concerned: "Is the matter over?"

Chen Xiao handed him the signed agreement: "Shao Bo didn't embarrass me, he might still think it's a shame to pay me 1500 a month."

Xie Mingzhe breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good! Brother Chen, are you going to rebuild a trumpet next?"

Chen Xiao nodded: "Well. Let's develop the guild first. In the evening, Yingying will officially post the guild's recruitment promotion on the forum. At that time, the full-level cards of Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Huang Gai in your card shop will also be available. Take the opportunity to exhibit and attract a wave of popularity."

Chen Qianlin looked at the excitement of the two, and said, "It's getting late, you should go back."

Chen Xiao looked at his brother reluctantly, and asked in as calm a tone as possible: "Brother, I have kept that bedroom for you all the time, do you want...do you want to move back?"

Xie Mingzhe immediately assisted: "Master, it's too far away for you to live here alone, why don't you move back to live? Brother Chen cleaned your bedroom very clean, and the succulents you left behind are also well-raised. I will have If you have any questions, it is convenient to talk to you..."

Chen Qianlin said: "I like quietness, if you have any questions, you can send me a video directly."

That's right, the master gave him a flat-panel optical computer, and he can make a video call anytime he wants to contact.Xie Mingzhe's reason was not valid, so he had to look at Chen Xiao helplessly.The latter didn't force it, he smiled and said, "Okay, brother, you can do whatever you like, at worst, I'll come to see you every day from now on."

Chen Qianlin frowned: "You don't have to come every day."

Chen Xiao immediately changed his words: "Then I will come to see you the next day."

Chen Qianlin: "..."

After a moment of silence, Chen Qianlin said: "Well, I'll finish some work at hand first, and then move in next month." Since Chen Xiao and Xie Mingzhe decided to join forces to play games next season, it is true that they live together It is convenient to guide at any time.

Chen Xiao was so excited that he almost jumped up, his voice trembling slightly: "Really, really?"

"Well." Chen Qianlin said: "I still have a few paintings to finish, so I won't keep you guys. Go back first."

Chen Xiao simply took Xie Mingzhe away.

On the way back, Chen Xiao kept humming excitedly, and the song that was originally very warm was sung by him particularly unpleasantly.He is tone deaf and seriously out of tune. Xie Mingzhe really couldn't laugh or cry, but Chen Xiao was in such a good mood, Xie Mingzhe didn't interrupt him, letting him go out of tune and run out of the galaxy.

After returning to the studio, Pang Yu came over curiously and asked Xie Mingzhe: "Did you really see his brother Chen Xiao?" Jin Yue also asked in a low voice: "What kind of person is his brother?" Xie Mingzhe didn't have time to answer , Chen Xiao slapped the two of them on the back: "Stop gossiping, are you free?"

Chi Yingying said: "Brother Chen, I have already written the promotion, can you see if it works?"

Chen Xiao went over to take a look. The promotional words she wrote were concise and neat, with prominent points. The post on the forum was accompanied by a picture of breaking the world record of Zizhu Forest, which was very attractive. major!"

Chen Xiao said: "Tomorrow noon will officially release the publicity. There must be many people applying, and the matter of accepting people will be handed over to Ah Qing. In addition, let's put Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai in the card shop for display tomorrow, and help the guild do it by the way." publicity."

Xie Mingzhe nodded: "I think it's better to turn the first floor into a card museum, with a detailed introduction written under each card. In the future, the store will be open for a long time. Even if there are no new cards for sale on the second floor, you can come and visit if you are interested." Let's appreciate the cards."

Character card museum, this is what Xie Mingzhe wants to do most.

Make those classic characters into cards for exhibition, so that people in this world can know them and like them.

Chi Yingying also agrees very much: "This is the first time the card museum has appeared in the game! Xiao Xie, I am actually very curious about the stories of the characters you designed. I think there must be many people who are as curious as me!" "

The fat man immediately raised his hand: "Add me! I want to know more about Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai!"

Jin Yue said: "I like Wang Zhaojun and Xi Shi the most."

Even Chi Qing, who has always been the calmest, said: "I really want to know Cao Chong's design ideas for Xiangxiang."

Xie Mingzhe said with a smile: "I'll briefly write down the stories and design ideas of these people first, and sister Yingying will help me revise and polish, is that okay?"

Chi Yingying nodded immediately: "No problem!"

Xie Mingzhe turned on the optical brain and began to write the card encyclopedia of each character.

The way of writing the card encyclopedia is not like writing a novel.The novel uses the plot to slowly promote the development of the story, while the encyclopedia summarizes the general character and experience of the character from the perspective of God.It is impossible for Xie Mingzhe to memorize the detailed experience of each character, but it is okay to give a rough idea.

He had been writing the card encyclopedia information that night, and when he finished writing the introduction of the thirteen cards, his head was about to explode.He sent the introduction to Yingying and asked the other party to modify some wording. After Yingying's polishing, it really read a lot more smoothly.

In the game, on the first floor of the Yueban card store, three seven-star full-level cards, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai, were newly displayed.

Moreover, the background story and design ideas of each card are written clearly at the bottom of all card display cabinets, which is really a bit like a "card museum".

***

At noon the next day, the Yueban card store opened on time.

The fact that Uncle Fat broke the Zizhu Forest record three times in a row has already been spread in the forums, so as soon as the card shop opened, countless people flocked into the store, wanting to see what the deck that broke the dungeon record looked like.

As soon as everyone entered the store, they found that there were detailed "card encyclopedias" under all the cards, and they couldn't help but sigh——

"It's like entering a card museum!" "Cao Chong said that the elephant is an equal replacement method, using stones instead of elephants. This kid is so smart!" "Wang Zhaojun married far away and played the pipa because he was too sad? What a pity..." "What are the Twelve Hairpins in Jinling? Besides Daiyu and Baochai, there are other people?" "It is said that Drifting is the third senior brother, does he have a senior senior brother and a second senior brother?"

Everyone was discussing the background story of the card, and many people even excitedly took screenshots.

The three new cards, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai, have also attracted widespread attention from players.

Except that Huang Gai is an old man, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are more handsome than the other, and there is also a linkage skill "Jiangdong Shuangbi"!

Today's store announcement reads this line: "Welcome everyone to the Yueban card store, I hope you can like these character cards. Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai are the card groups that broke the record of the Zizhu Forest dungeon. I want to get this For the deck group, you can join the Nirvana guild and redeem it with member points. We welcome fixed teams and casual players to join our guild, and there are many benefits!"

Everyone: "..."

Gagaga!Can't we add it?

Those who reacted quickly turned around and ran to the guild administrator to search for the Nirvana guild to apply to join. The guild promotion and recruitment post Chi Yingying posted on the forum had already been turned over dozens of pages by the top post, and a large number of players applied to join the Nirvana guild. Almost paralyzed the guild application panel in the game!

Chi Qing's background kept popping up new application lists, and she said with some headaches: "More than 1000 people have applied..."

As soon as the words fell, he changed his words again: "Two thousand...three thousand!"

The popularity of the Nirvana guild instantly jumped to the top ten popular guilds of the day, it was simply unstoppable.

The only newly established guilds that can do this are Fenghua established by Tang Muzhou in the fifth season, and Dark Night Capital established by Pei Jingshan in the seventh season, and these two later became the top clubs in the professional league.

Netizens lamented one after another—Nirvana Guild, is this the rhythm of doing big things?

When Xie Mingzhe used to play online games, if the guild had no benefits, no organization, and players had no sense of belonging, it was a mess. Such a salted fish guild was only suitable for leisure parties who watched the scenery.In this game, if you want to get a piece of the world from the fiercely competitive large guilds, you must do a good job in member management.

Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, and Huang Gai can certainly make a lot of money by selling them, but now they have no shortage of money. The income from the dead cards alone is several million gold coins every day, and they can sell other cards in the future.

So Xie Mingzhe decided to take this set of Soochow Dungeon Cards, which broke the world record, as a benefit for the members of the guild.Members can earn points by doing guild tasks, playing guild dungeons, and handing in materials, and when they reach a certain point, they can be exchanged for welfare cards.In order to change Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, everyone will definitely actively do guild tasks!

Other big guilds have their own welfare cards, and the Nirvana guild can't lag behind.

With the attractiveness of the record-breaking card group, are you afraid that the Nirvana guild will not develop?

The author has something to say:

Xie Mingzhe makes cards, which are called peripheral derivatives and fan creations. It is not plagiarism. If you are not clear, you can define plagiarism on Baidu.

The copyright law only protects the copyright [within 50 years after the author's death]. The author of the famous works such as Three Kingdoms and Red Mansion has been dead for a long time, and the copyright has long been fully open. The derivative creation of characters does not need to go to the original author for authorization. For example, many Red Mansion fans in Jinjiang , it is legal for the protagonist to dress up as sister Lin.

If Xie Mingzhe doesn't explain at all, the cards he makes will be very strange, so my setting is that Xie Mingzhe will not copy the original work, but only write a "card encyclopedia" from memory, similar to the simplified version of character information found by searching Baidu Encyclopedia, It's just to let everyone know the characters better, this has nothing to do with "plagiarism"!

The contract and guild recruitment have all been resolved, and we will continue to make cards tomorrow, thank you for your support :)
