This Game is Too Real Chapter 341

  Chapter 341 Undercurrent Auction!

   "Fuck!"

   The real world, somewhere.

   Watching the two-line announcement pop up on the official website, the trader sitting in front of the computer couldn't help but let out a foul language.

   Seeing his colleagues looking at him in unison, he coughed to cover up the embarrassment, and said quickly.

   "Temporary suspension... Can't trade anymore."

   This sentence caused a thousand waves.

   "Can't trade?!"

"what's the situation?!"

   "Is there a problem with funding?"

   "How can you lose the chain at such a critical time!"

   There was an uproar in the office, and the old man sitting at the other desk suddenly stood up and asked anxiously.

   "Why can't you trade? What happened?"

  The trader pushed away the chair, rested the back of his head on the cushion, and pinched his eyebrows with a headache.

   "The explanation on the official website is that the server network fluctuates... In short, orders can now be placed or cancelled, but they cannot continue to be traded."

  People: "..."

   Network fluctuations are okay.

   This excuse is too bad, right? !

  The servers all over the world fluctuate together, and the official website of "Wasteland OL" will not be affected.

The    national character face man coughed dryly.

   "...It's quite that guy's style."

   That guy, of course, was referring to Aguang.

   In the past six months, they have collected and sorted out almost every post, every sentence, and even every punctuation mark that Aguang posted on the forum.

   All this in order not to miss critical information.

   Like this auction.

   If they ignore the clue, let competitors buy the technology.

   That's really a big loss!

   sat up from the office chair, the trader paused and continued.

   "However, although the bad news is that trading has been suspended, the good news is... the auction time has been brought forward to now."

   Everyone in the office whispered.

   asked the old man with a frown.

   "Is this good news?"

"Of course," the trader said of course, "we have a first-mover advantage. Although we are not sure about the number of opponents and how much our opponents have bought, but from the ratio of our trading volume to the trading volume, we Great advantage!"

   Hearing this sentence, everyone finally stretched their brows.

   The old man who stood up earlier was also relieved and sat back on the chair.

   After the meeting yesterday, he immediately found Academician Liu Yiping from the Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and consulted in detail about technical issues such as lithium batteries and lithium dendrites.

   In order to understand the twists and turns, he just made several pages of notes!

  According to Academician Liu Yiping, although there is little hope of solving the lithium dendrite problem in a short period of time, once this problem can be solved, the impact on the domestic new energy industry and even the national energy strategy will be amazing.

   This time, even the always rigorous Academician Liu used the exaggerated expression "amazing".

The significance of    can be imagined!

  Anyway, they must take down this auction!

The    Chinese character face man coughed lightly.

   "Let's not make this F... I mean let's not talk too much first, what about the rules of the auction?"

  The trader touched the bridge of his nose and said while staring at the computer screen.

"...The rules are the same as those of other auctions. The highest bidder wins, and the increase shall not be less than 1% each time. However, since the transaction is completed on the other party's platform, and the transaction currency is limited to silver coins, the quotation cannot exceed the account. upper limit."

   The amount of silver coins each account holds is anonymous, but it is a clear sign for the operator of "Wasteland OL".

   In other words, the operation of falsely reporting the auction price is impossible, and the balance of the account is the upper limit of the quotation.

   The man with the Chinese character face frowned.

   "...that means you can't quote a high price first, you have to wait until the delivery date to get it all together."

  The trader nodded.

"Yes, according to the rules, the settlement will take place immediately after the auction...which is actually good news for us. We only need a 'minimum markup' above the second place to win. This auction."

  The old man asked immediately.

   "When will the auction start?"

   The trader turned his attention to the screen.

   "It's started!"

   is more than just started.

  The competition of all parties has even heated up!

   An anonymous account first quoted the floor price of 1 million silver coins, and then the second account raised the price without hesitation, directly raising the price to 2 million silver coins, and then the parties started pulling in units of 100,000.

  According to public information, before the suspension of trading on the silver coin trading platform, the highest price of silver coin transactions has approached 600!

   The average transaction price of the day was directly pulled from 50 to 80!

  According to the average price, these 2 million silver coins are equivalent to 160 million!

   is just crazy!

   But everyone in the room knew very well that compared to the value of the auction item itself, the price of over 100 million yuan was probably more than a fraction.

   A painting can be sold for hundreds of millions, not to mention this key technology that can change an industry?

The reason why    did not add a 0 is simply because there are so many chips in the market.

   Currently, the total number of players in the game is about 3,000. On average, each person counts 10,000 silver coins in his pocket, which adds up to 30 million.

   Counting a few high-profile players with industries in the game, doubling the "total currency in circulation" to 60 million is already quite remarkable.

   In addition, there is a huge group of cloud players participating in the transaction, diverting a part of the silver coins, and the opponents hidden in the trading platform are also selling at the same time.

  Even if they have bought with the capital, they only grabbed 10% of the chips in one day.

   Don't look at the number 10% seems to be very small.

  As a non-issuer of the currency, holding 10% of the total circulation of the currency—that is, nearly 6 million silver coins, is already a very aggressive strategy for buying silver!

   Hundreds of millions of dollars in cost, if the final exchange is an e-card with the words "Thank you for your patronage", everyone in the whole house will have to take responsibility.

   In a sense, their fate has been tied to "Wasteland OL".

  Although most of them have never entered the game...

   Staring at the laptop on his lap, the man with the national character clenched his fists, his palms seemed to seep sweat.

   He is also a beta tester.

   Brother Guang never cheated on his own people.

   He believed that Brother Guang would not cheat him!

   As time passed, the auction price quickly mentioned 3 million silver coins, and the speed of the increase began to slow down.

   The trader who had been standing still was suddenly relieved.

   "...4 million should be their limit."

   "The price increase each time shall not be less than 1%. We only need to hit the price directly to 4 million, including the increase of 40,000, and we will basically win."

When    said, he tapped his index finger on the keyboard and entered a series of numbers.

   After carefully checking the string of 0s, he then hit enter.

   is like a button to stop time.

   At the moment when the quotation is sent, the entire auction window is like the pause button has been pressed, and no new quotation pops up.

   Then, the 3-minute popup starts to flash.

  【4 million once! 】

  【4 million twice! 】

【……make a deal! 】

  The office was quiet for 9 minutes, and then an excited cry broke out in an instant.

   "It's done!"

   "Hahaha! We won!"

   "Nice job!"

The    Chinese character-faced man finally stretched his eyebrows, his fists loosened and then clenched.

   Even though he has always been steady, he couldn't help but shout hello with his colleagues.

  The old man walked up to the trader excitedly and approached the computer.

   "Where's the stuff? What kind of film...how did they give it to me?"

   The auction is won, there is no suspense about this.

  The vast majority of players use RMB to trade, which is a coincidence if you can lose.

   But now the key is, where is the auction?

  The office was quiet.

The   -faced man suddenly stood up, threw the laptop on the sofa, walked quickly to the office door and opened the door.

  The ground was empty and nothing.

   Fortunately, there is nothing.

   Delivering the helmet to his door is scary enough.

   If it could be delivered here, it would be terrifying!

   The reactions of the others were different from his, and they all leaned in front of the computer and stared nervously at the screen.

   Soon a line of pop-ups came over.

   the trader said excitedly.

   "...the other party initiated a data transfer request to us!"

   "Quick, hurry up with that confirmation!" The old man urged excitedly, "Don't make a mistake!"

"I know!"

   It is obviously impossible to click wrong.

   No matter how shaking the hand holding the mouse is, it is impossible to shake to the fork in the upper right corner.

  10G of data was transferred in a short time, and the downloaded file was actually a compressed package in rar format.

   However, the storage form of the data does not matter, the decompression is completed quickly.

   Looking at the pile of documents lying in the folder, the crowd in front of the computer involuntarily held their breath.

   "...improved artificial SEI membrane!"

   "Not just the research literature... but also the technological process!"

  The old man standing in front of the computer said excitedly.

   "Quick! Immediately send the materials to the Institute of Materials Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences!"

  The man in the green shirt nodded solemnly and said neatly.

"Yes!"

The assistant beside    also took out the phone that was turned off in his pocket.

   "I'll go outside and call Academician Liu Yiping!"

  The old man said quickly.

   "Let me talk to Academician Liu!"

   "I just asked him about lithium dendrites yesterday. I will explain it more clearly when I talk to him about it."

  Because of these 10 G data, the office is busy inside and outside.

   This kind of technology related to the national energy strategy is naturally impossible to send by online disk or email.

   Not long after, special cars with white plates left the compound one after another, heading in different directions.

   Meanwhile, across the ocean.

  The office of a CIA project team.

   Watching the auction item being taken away by the mysterious buyer, Fick kicked the table scoldingly.

   "Fake!"

   This is the third time he has done this today.

   The legs of the table were almost crippled by him, but he still couldn't relieve his anger.

  4 million silver coins!

   Where did such a large bid list come from!

   "The time is too rushed, and it just happened to catch up with the temporary suspension... One day, there is no room for manipulation at this time." The trader sitting in front of the computer looked painful.

   He has been working overtime for nearly 24 hours in a row, but now he has encountered such a foolish thing again, it can be said that he is physically and mentally exhausted.

   The colleague sitting next to him shook his head.

   "...We've almost bought out all the chips in the hands of speculators. No matter how much we push up the price, it's useless without volume."

   "The battle is over before the bullets are fired... Shet, I have never played such a suffocating trade!" said the trader, scratching his head.

   "The worst part is, it's not just us who are placing orders with US dollars! Someone is fighting for chips on a plate with us!"

   "Damn, can't you wait for these dog things?! We didn't sell them to them after we photographed them! What are you and your own people robbing!"

   The office was full of complaints.

  Working overtime for 24 hours in exchange for such a result is unacceptable to anyone.

  The trader looked at Fick, who was in charge of the case.

   "What do we do now? The auction is over, we spent a lot of money to buy a bunch of waste paper... Do we want to throw it away when the auction opens?"

  Fick's face was gloomy, he folded his arms and thought for a long time, and suddenly said.

   "Don't be in a hurry to throw it away... The auction may not be the only one this time."

   spent tens of millions of dollars to buy a pile of waste paper, even if he has the backstage of the sky, he can't keep him.

   Not winning this auction is at best a tactical defeat.

   And if you choose to stop loss at this time and throw away the silver coins in your hand, it is tantamount to admitting your strategic failure.

   No matter how much economic losses he reduced for his patrons and superiors, he could not save his own career.

   Now he has only one way to go, and that is to prove that the string of numbers in the account is not worthless.

  How to prove it?

   is simple.

   As long as the buyer who bought the auction item, send out the "buyer show".

Whether it is active or passive, as long as his superiors and gold owners can see that the silver coin can really buy good things, the reason why he didn't buy it is because the support of the high-level is not enough, not only will he not He was demoted because of a tactical defeat, but he was able to get more support from the headquarters!

  There is no way to hide what is really valuable.

   As long as you keep an eye on relevant news in the industry, you can always find some clues.

  Thinking of this, Fick gradually calmed down and regained his confidence.

   A loss is nothing.

   They still have 3 million credits in their account!

   The next auction may not be without a chance.

   "...But when is the next time? That website, there are no new announcements." The trader whispered.

   Everyone in the office looked at each other and whispered in whispers.

   "It doesn't matter when the next time is!"

  Fick raised his voice and interrupted everyone's chatter.

   "...The important thing is that we should establish a normalized acquisition mechanism for silver coins."

   "Not only can we not throw the chips in our hands, but we must continue to buy when the price is right to ensure that we have enough silver coin reserves in our account."

   "Let's wait for this opportunity next time, so that we won't be in such a rush as today!"

   Having said that, he changed his words.

   "So in the final analysis... the reason for this defeat is not that we did not contribute, but that the headquarters did not support us enough!

   "If they had followed our advice and started buying silver coins a month ago, what happened today would never have happened!"

   looked around at everyone in the office, his voice was firm, even fanatical.

   "Everyone, this is a gift from extraterrestrial civilizations. Those madly robbed bids are the evidence. The value behind this is far beyond money! And it's not just us who discovered this!"

   "I'll write a report right away, propose to our headquarters, and get the support of Congress to increase our budget!"

   "In any case, we must not fall behind others in this race!"

  There was a noisy discussion in the office, and the expressions on everyone's faces were different.

  Some people nodded in agreement, while others thought he was crazy.

   Bet your career, or even your entire career, on something that is fundamentally uncertain.

   Not to mention them, even Fick thinks he must be crazy!

   Familiar scenes are being staged all over the world.

   It's not just intelligence agencies that are staring at this auction, but also industry giants with interests.

   This includes the darlings of the new energy industry, as well as the giants who sell oil and gas.

  Although the transaction price of that auction item is not even comparable to a piece of art they put at home, it is very likely to shake the market of hundreds of billions or even trillions.

   Even revolutionize an industry!

   At least they have to figure out a way to figure out, what exactly is that auction item?

   and who took it away?

   How to use it?

  The intelligence agencies of various countries are working overtime and become ants on the hot pot.

   Everyone is racking their brains to find a way to investigate the identity of the mysterious buyer.

   And the mysterious buyer is not idle, he is also working overtime, trying to restore the mysterious film in the laboratory...

   On the other side, the wasteland world.

   The Dawn City Square, with its lanterns and colorful lights, has completely escaped into the embrace of the night.

  As the clock strikes twelve, the stalls serving beer and food close one after another.

   The people who had been drinking to their heart's content walked back to their homes, while the people who had been drinking unconsciously simply lay on the side of the road, waiting for the guards to drag them into the station to sober up.

   Just looking at this place doesn't look like a wasteland!

  This is heaven!

   In the banquet hall not far from the square, the sound of the staggering of thorns gradually came to an end.

   Looking at the long banquet table that seemed to be swept away by a typhoon, Chu Guang gently hummed a little tune he heard from somewhere, enjoying the aftertaste of the end of the banquet.

   and that last bit of good time.

   Just by looking at his lazy appearance, no one can associate him with the "behind the scenes" who stirred up the situation in another world.

   "Master, the auction is over." Xiao Qi whispered in his ear.

  Chu Guang replied in a casual tone.

   "Oh, got it."

   After waiting for a long time, there was no text, Xiao Qi asked curiously.

   "Huh? Isn't the master curious about who took that thing in the end?"

  Chu Guang smiled.

   "What's so curious about this, they have a few silver coins in their pockets, I know better than them."

joke.

  Since the Alpha0.1 version, he has developed a good habit of flipping players' warehouses to "check accounts".

   Now in the Beta version, the digital management of the new alliance has been further deepened. There is no reason to abandon this fine tradition.

   This wave not only directly recovered 4 million silver coins, but also indirectly locked the liquidity of at least 30 million silver coins.

   Locks a part of excess liquidity in order to release more liquidity to industries that need money.

   Otherwise it will cause inflation.

   I really can't understand it, but the silver coins in the pockets of cloud players can be understood as a fixed deposit with no interest.

  The treasury of the new alliance has increased by 4 million silver coins, and the central bank of the alliance has an additional credit balance of 30 million silver coins.

  The former can be used to invest in public utilities, build new settlements, and fill the fiscal deficit caused by the war, while the latter can lend to companies that need money to help the supply side expand production.

   Whether it is a player-run enterprise or an NPC-run enterprise.

   As for the ordinary players whose pockets are emptied, it is not a loss.

   They can spend RMB or USD in real life, and work harder to earn silver coins.

   Whether it is a new alliance, players, or cloud players who have not participated in the game at all have benefited.

   Because no one loses at all.

   So of course this wave is a win-win!

   As for how many times he won, Chu Guang was too lazy to forget for the time being, he just wanted to concentrate on enjoying the banquet.

   I haven't felt so relaxed in a long time.

   Since the Northern Expedition was announced two months ago, he has not been idle for a moment.

   Now the taut string in his brain has finally loosened a little.

   As for troublesome things.

   You can wait until tonight to think about it.

   Watching the last player staggered out of the banquet scene, Chu Guang raised his glass towards his back.

   "Enjoy it!"

   "Honor belongs to you!"

   "This is the reward you deserve!"

   Don't blame the Lord for suspending the silver coin trading platform.

   This is to protect you.

   took a sip of the fine wine in the glass, and Chu Guang put the glass aside.

   If it weren't for today's special day, he wouldn't drink at all.

   Boss Xia, who loves both food and drink, is already lying on the table, grinning with a grin.

  Xiaoyu stared at the cake on the plate and ate happily.

   Pai, sitting next to her, is not so ladylike.

   It was the first time that she had eaten such a luxurious delicacy. She made her mouth full of cream and chocolate residue, and before she could swallow the contents in her mouth, she shouted excitedly.

   "Ooooooo! What is this thing! Damn, this is so delicious too!"

  Xiaoyu raised the corners of his mouth slightly proudly.

   "Cream! And chocolate! Dessert is the speciality of Dawn City!"

   "What about that, what about that?" Pai, who was holding a fork, looked at the other plate on the table with sparkling eyes.

   "That's a charcoal-roasted deer leg...but it's best not to eat the barbecue with the cake, it will be very greasy!"

  Although Xiaoyu seriously taught the experience of tasting food, Pai didn't listen at all, and couldn't wait to put a large piece of sliced ​​grilled meat into his mouth.

   Trying to swallow the food.

   touched the slightly bulging belly, maybe it was finally unable to fit, Pai finally put down the cutlery in his hand and leaned on the chair.

   "Woooooo, I don't understand, why do you have so many delicious food!"

   Xiaoyu asked curiously.

   "Don't you have it there?"

   When the two of them chatted earlier, she learned that Camp 101 was a place similar to Bette Street.

   But instead of the old town mayor who exploited them, there are many people who are more knowledgeable than Grandpa Charlie. They invented a lot of useful things and lived a life of indifference.

   To be honest, Xiaoyu has a little bit of envy in his heart.

  Especially heard from her that when they were very young, they would be taught to write and count, and when they were a little older, they could learn more powerful knowledge.

   That was an experience she had never had.

   If it wasn't for Big Brother Chu, she would probably still be worrying about how to carry the heavy big iron pot on the stove, and she wouldn't have learned so much interesting knowledge.

   "Hey," Pai sighed when he talked about his own home, "Although synthetic food is not inedible... But that taste, I advise you not to have too much hope."

   "Is it nutritional cream?" Xiaoyu asked curiously.

   "It's not really a nutritional cream... We live a little better than the average survivors' colony, but energy and material are not rich enough."

   Having said this, Pai suddenly thought of the great gift the manager gave them before.

   That truck seems to be loaded with a lot of goodies!

  Thinking that everyone in the camp can also share these delicious foods, Pai felt as if he had eaten honey, and was indescribably happy.

   Master is right.

   Share with people, and even monotonous food can become delicious.

   Not to mention this kind of food!

   took a peek at the manager who was leaning on the chair with his eyes closed and was about to fall asleep, Pai made up his mind.

  As the representative of the visiting group, she must sign a beautiful agreement to go back!

   Let everyone eat such delicious food!
