Super Rewards, Yet Uchiha Qi Remembered the Terror of Being Dominated by Tencent (Second Update)

Ding~ Congratulations, Host. A total of 5,000 game copies have been sold, generating 100 million taels in local currency. Converted according to local prices, this is approximately 33.33 million RMB. Sales have explosively exceeded expectations, and the mission has been completed ahead of schedule.

Ding~ Congratulations, Host. You have received the highest-tier reward. The system has officially activated. The shop has opened. The Emotion Value exchange system has opened.

Ding~ Congratulations, Host. You have obtained Platinum Treasure Chest x1, Gold Treasure Chest x1, and Silver Treasure Chest x1.

Ding~ Congratulations, Player. You have perfectly passed the novice trial and officially activated the system. Please continue working hard and strive to become the greatest game developer in the world as soon as possible.

Host, please prepare well over the next three days. The mission system will reopen in three days.

This was the information sent by the system.

The mission with a one-month time limit had been completed outright, all because sales had exploded.

The original limited edition had required 500 copies and 100,000 RMB. Now, ten times that number of games had been sold, while sales revenue had reached 333 times the target.

Such an outrageous excess had directly blown past the system's maximum over-completion limit, so it settled the mission ahead of schedule and awarded the highest possible reward.

Moreover, it had directly given him chests of different qualities. Uchiha Qi looked them over and found that they resembled lottery boxes. Items of corresponding quality had been placed inside, and opening a chest would randomly produce an item of that quality.

Damn it, wasn't this just a loot box gacha system?

Fuck, even after transmigrating, Tencent was still chasing him!

Uchiha Qi sucked in a sharp breath. Though he was happy that the mission had been completed early, he also felt as constipated as ever.

Still, completing the mission was a good thing, so he immediately examined the shop function and Emotion Value exchange function that had opened after the system's official activation.

These were the functions unlocked after the system officially activated, rewards for Uchiha Qi formally passing the novice trial.

Still, this was not surprising. When the system had issued this mission, Uchiha Qi had already understood that the missions he had completed before were merely those issued during the system's beginner period—the classic novice guidance stage.

Only now had he truly completed the chain of missions.

And he had completed them beyond the target.

The facts proved that Uchiha Qi had made the right choice in directly seeking the Uchiha Clan's support and holding this launch event. It was precisely because of what had happened at the event, combined with marketing methods from Earth, that the games had sold out so explosively afterward.

Just before this, representatives from the various clans who had come here had immediately sought out Uchiha Fugaku and the others, expressing their desire to purchase the Genjutsu Game.

After all, that "gift to Konoha" had been far too lethal. It was the classic "if you don't buy it, you don't love Konoha." Even if ninja merely wanted to show their love for Konoha, they had to spend money and buy it.

What was more, the Genjutsu Game's actual effects had been fully displayed through Minato Namikaze's performance. For the improvement of themselves, their families, their friends, and their clansmen, the ninja would not begrudge that little bit of money. They eagerly placed orders one after another.

Twenty thousand taels was not cheap, but compared to the increase in strength, it was practically being given away for free. Naturally, they had to buy like crazy.

There was no such thing as collecting deposits here. Everyone paid in full directly—though the organizers had not prepared that many game scrolls, pre-ordering after payment was not some brilliant method, so Uchiha Qi naturally put it to use.

In addition, the merchants who had come to Konoha were also very interested. Naturally, they would purchase some stock and take it elsewhere to sell.

Although the merchants' purchases would not yet be counted as actual sales, Konoha's ninja alone were enough to absorb the supply.

Since every official Genjutsu Game scroll could only be played by one person through blood-binding, ninja clans often purchased many at once based on the total number of ninja in their clan. The system would calculate the quantity according to the buyer's actual circumstances and ultimately arrive at a final number matching reality.

In this regard, the system did have some intelligence. At the very least, it could judge based on the buyer's actual situation rather than assuming that, because the buyer was only one person, no matter how many they bought, they were all for that one person to play.

Likewise, even if there were not that many Genjutsu Game scrolls ready to be sold directly, as long as users placed pre-orders and paid, those sales would also be counted.

Hm? How was the exchange rate between the ninja world's currency and RMB calculated?

The ninja world's "taels" were not ancient Chinese silver. It was simply the common name for currency in the ninja world.

Based on the current price of sixty taels for a bowl of char siu ramen, the system directly converted local currency to RMB at a three-to-one exchange rate, resulting in the final calculated sales revenue of 33.33 million RMB.

Of course, that was merely the amount calculated by the system. The actual final sales volume and sales revenue would definitely far exceed that figure. It was only that the system stopped counting after determining that sales had exploded.

Uchiha Qi estimated that the final sales revenue would likely exceed 200 million taels.

That was almost equivalent to ten Asumas.

What outrageous profits!

Undeniably outrageous profits!

Although Sealing Scrolls were expensive, buying them in bulk could bring the price below 5,000 taels, while the actual production cost was around 6,000 taels. Everything beyond that was pure profit.

Even the Uchiha Clan could not help but be envious of such a massive profit.

One had to know that from constructing the venue to holding today's launch event, including hiring large numbers of ninja and laborers, the Uchiha Clan's total investment had only been a little over 100 million taels. After all, in a world with underdeveloped productivity, labor costs were truly low.

In terms of making money alone, this wave had been an enormous success.

Just look at Kushina Uzumaki. This Sealing Jutsu researcher had been made into a partner in the Genjutsu Game by Uchiha Qi. Together with Minato Namikaze, the lifelong spokesperson, she held 5% of the shares and was currently excitedly counting money.

Do not underestimate that 5%. The profits from the Genjutsu Game were not exclusively owned by the Uchiha Clan. Even Uchiha Qi, the founder, only held 10%.

Of the remaining 85%, the Uchiha Clan itself held 35%, while the other 50% would be shared today with several ninja clans worth drawing in.

In fact, Uchiha Fugaku was already negotiating with the representatives of the various clans, explaining that the Genjutsu Game would henceforth operate under a true commercial model. A guild had been established for this purpose, with the plain and unpretentious name Konoha Gaming Guild, which would specialize in operating game-related business in the future.

The Uchiha Clan would not monopolize the profits and sincerely invited ninja clans with vision and interest to join. All they needed to do was contribute a sum of money and devote part of their clan's resources to the guild, helping it promote its products throughout the ninja world, and they would qualify.

Once the representatives of the major ninja clans learned this, they naturally agreed without hesitation.

Anyone with eyes could see the Genjutsu Game's broad prospects and understand just how enormous its profits and benefits were. The Uchiha Clan had not only refrained from keeping it all to itself, but had taken it out to share with everyone. Who would miss such a lavish feast?

In the end, famous Konoha ninja clans such as the Hyuga, Nara, Akimichi, and Yamanaka all joined. Even members of the Senju Clan, who had abandoned their surname and integrated into Konoha, participated and generously demanded to invest. This even included the clans of Sarutobi, Mitokado, and Koharu—the three Konoha F4 families.

As for Shimura Danzō...

Well, one could only say that the Shimura Clan had been truly unlucky to run into Shimura Danzō, that Pot Kage. The clan had long since completely declined into commoners, with a style of being ruthless toward enemies and even more ruthless toward their own people.

In short, a super interest group encompassing nearly all of Konoha's ninja clans had been established.

Most people only saw the massive profits and bright future in it. They also felt that the Uchiha Clan had truly changed. They had actually shared such a huge business, one that would continue generating money endlessly in the future, with everyone. It was simply too unexpected, and their goodwill toward the Uchiha Clan soared as a result.

Only a handful of clever people, such as Shikaku Nara, saw something deeper: the emergence of an interest group capable of influencing all of Konoha.

Moreover, even if Konoha's upper ranks saw the problem, there was nothing they could do. This time, even members of their own families had joined. If they wanted to do anything to the Uchiha Clan again, they would be opposing this interest group and would directly face resistance and opposition from their own families.

It truly was...

Pulling the rug out from under them!

Shikaku Nara, who had led Ino-Shika-Cho into joining, sighed inwardly and felt that the person who had made the Uchiha Clan lay out such an enormous game board was truly formidable.

Though such a scheme was nothing on the scale of the whole world, something the Daimyo, nobles, and other ruling classes all knew how to play, in a ninja village like Konoha—where there was absolutely no relevant professional education, most people liked to solve problems with their muscles, and political education had dropped out during prenatal schooling—it was a dimensionality-reduction strike.
