I have to say that in this wave of publicity, the "brochure" produced by Xiaonan really played a big role.
In this era when most propaganda is still stream-of-consciousness hand-drawn or text-based.
Yu Yue's promotional picture, which can be compared to "Photoshop retouching", is really a dimensionality reduction attack.
The sunset at the beach and the closeness to nature make the beach cottage look very healthy and nourishing.
There are also many seafood feasts that you have never seen before - who wouldn’t be excited after seeing them?
Even if there was no promotion of Yuyue Store, they would still think about going there when they saw such a place.
After all, it’s new and I haven’t played it before.
Still looks so beautiful.
As for the "trial operation", the quota will be drawn by lottery...
The first reaction of the nobles was not "Why do we have to draw lots to get into this place?", but "What? Limited places? Isn't that natural?"
If anyone can go, how can that be consistent with my status and position?
This 'less' is what we want.
Because even the young noble, who was pissed off by his cousin, didn't think there was anything wrong with this method.
I was just anxious to find a spot and I must not be outdone by that unlucky cousin.
Similar things happened to many other people.
We usually see each other every day. If he goes and I don’t, where will I put my face?
It’s fine if those in power can’t spare the time, it’s just that they really don’t have the time to go.
But they are different. They have free time for a quarter of the year. If they meet at both ends of the day and one of them is really suppressed, won’t they be laughed to death next time?
As for the lottery, it depends on luck or something...
They don't believe in luck or bad luck.
They only believe in their own ability to pay.
If you can't handle it, it means you didn't spend enough money or found the wrong person.
If you have the right connections and money, you can always find a way to get it done.
What are your negotiation conditions for the lottery?
Oh, if you spend a certain amount at one time, you’ll have a chance to win a prize?
Well, I will just buy ten or twenty times. Doesn’t that mean I will have ten or twenty chances to win the lottery?
If it doesn't work, then I'll buy a hundred times the odds. A hundred chances of winning is better than one, right?
Otherwise, you can still look for connections.
——So the offices of the Kages of the various ninja villages became more crowded than ever before.
It became lively .
"What? A place to participate in the trial operation of 'Sea Park'?"
Faced with the agents of the nobles and wealthy people who came one after another, the shadows were stunned.
"That's right, aren't you a partner of Yuyue Store for many years? You should have some insider information, right?"
"this……"
"Money is not a problem, we give enough."
Ying: "This is not a question of money..."
"What's the problem?"
The agent doesn't think this is not a matter of money.
After all, isn't your job as a ninja to make money?
"You name a price, or we will give all the work for next year to your ninja village."
film:"……"
The former is hard to say, but the latter is really tempting.
If a great nobleman does all kinds of work for himself, then he must earn enough money to complete several S-level missions.
Catch a few more, and that will be the target for next year’s ninja village missions…well, he meant that the top-level commissions for orthodox ninja work will be enough.
If we can take this opportunity to retain these big customers, we won’t have to worry about the future.
Especially for the Fourth Mizukage.
As one of the cooperating units of 'Sea Paradise', the Mizukage office has received the largest number of customers so far.
Not to mention that the Fourth Mizukage had never seen such a scene before.
Even if we count the Mizukage who preceded him, that's still something I've never seen before.
Agents from all over the world flocked to the Mizukage office.
“Please give us a spot!”
"I came first! I came first!"
"Any amount is fine! Give us the first spot!"
"They are all from the Land of Water! It's impossible for our own people not to get a spot!"
"We are old customers of the Hidden Mist Village!"
"Yes! Think about our cooperation over the years!"
The last one was even a bit threatening.
The Fourth Mizukage and the higher-ups of the Hidden Mist Village, who have always been traditional ninjas, have never seen anything like this before.
They were totally confused on the spot - they never thought that someone would come to the Mizukage's office just for a spot!
Besides, this 'Sea Park' is still under construction, and only about one-tenth of the buildings have been completed... Why are these people working so hard?
Even if you earn a lot, you still maintain quality.
The ninja who lives a simple life cannot understand how extravagant the rich and powerful people can be when it comes to "enjoyment".
They could only deal with it anxiously while rushing to seek help from Miss Yu Yue.
——They were originally wondering why Miss Yu Yue said that each of them would be given 5 places to participate in the trial operation of the sea park.
After all, isn't the way to get this thing all by lottery? What's the point of giving it to them?
Now they understand.
But there is a problem - with so many people, five are not enough.
Not to mention the wealthy people in neighboring countries or forces, there is not enough to go around even among the nobles and wealthy people in our own country.
The Fourth Mizukage took advantage of his proximity and directly found Ugetsu himself.
This time, he was completely convinced.
When it comes to fighting, any random ninja could be far better than Miss Ugetsuki.
But when it comes to making money, they can’t even catch up with them even if they ride horses.
"Ms. Yu Yue, what should we do?"
Originally, including the quota for the Shadow, this 'trial run' was only going to accommodate a hundred guests - and even this Mizu Shadow thought that was a lot.
But now people from all over the world are scrambling for them, and these 'one hundred' are obviously not enough.
Let alone a hundred, even if we double or triple the number, it may not be enough to fill this gap.
“So many people?”
After listening to Mizukage's confession, Ugetsu was somewhat surprised.
She had long anticipated that there would not be enough places for this 'trial operation'.
But the robbery turned out to be like this, which was somewhat beyond her expectations.
This also indirectly proves how poor the entertainment in this world is.
There are so many rich people in this world, but so few entertainment options...
She shook her head in her heart.
Yu Yue Store still has a long way to go.
The spiritual world of so many people needs to be saved by myself.
"This... Miss Yu Yue, what should we do?"
The Fourth Mizukage's urging voice sounded.
To be honest, at first he thought that the five places given to him were benefits for his ninja village, but now he is dumbfounded.
"Hmm? Then let's divide it into phases one and two."
"Well, don't give out those five spots. I'll tell the other shadows to sell them all in an internal auction."
"The qualification for admission is to have commissioned an S-rank in your ninja village.
Task."
"Is this okay?"
——This can also be sold for money! ?
The Fourth Mizukage was shocked.
"Why not?"
Ugetsu asked back.
"Otherwise, whether you give it to someone or not, won't you offend people? In this case, why not just let them fight it out among themselves?"
"If they can't win, that's their own problem. They can't blame anyone else."
You didn't have enough money to entrust any missions to the Ninja Village in the past, so you blame me?
"this……"
The Fourth Mizukage thought that these and that were all their big clients, and it didn't seem appropriate for them to hold an auction and let the clients fight over them.
But he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.
After all, those people are big customers of the Hidden Mist Village, so what do they have to do with Miss Ugetsuki?
Miss Yu Yue’s activities have always been like this, whether it is a limited edition or a lottery, this is not the first time.
Why do I think I can influence Miss Yu Yue's activities just by speaking out?
Rather, considering that invitations are so popular, it is already very considerate of Ms. Ugetsuki to give these five places to the Hidden Mist Village.
Otherwise, when all the distinguished guests come to find me, I won’t even be able to get a place, that would be really bad.
"Then we will prepare to issue the second batch of trial operation quotas."
We can’t just pretend we didn’t hear the calls from so many customers.
Since one time is not enough, let’s have a second batch.
"They said that considering that some of the distinguished guests were busy with work and could not adjust their schedules to catch up with the first batch of places, they were specially issuing the second batch of places."
——Once this excuse was given, the guests had a way out.
'It's not that I can't get it, but because I'm busy with work and the time doesn't match up - you see, after I made time, we're here, aren't we? '
Very high.
The Fourth Mizukage, who came around the corner, finally realized what the 'art of speaking' was.
In this way, not only the first batch of nobles who got the quota would have face, but the second batch of gentlemen who went there would also have face.
No one is offended, so everyone is naturally happy.
"Then the first issue..."
He even drew a parallel and thought about the guests in the fourth period.
I didn't expect that just after I had thought of the beginning, Yu Yue rejected it outright: "There is no second issue."
“This qualification is so popular because it is rare.
"There are few, because of the mysterious freshness. If we really do it endlessly, won't it become a household name?"
Rare goods are valuable, but the prerequisite is that you must first get the "rare goods".
"If you want to come again, just wait until it is officially opened later."
This solution was also synchronized with the other four shadows.
Although the other four Kages wanted more places (five were definitely not enough), considering that it was Miss Ugetsu's decision, the four Kages ultimately said nothing.
Instead, he restored those agents according to Yu Yue's arrangement.
As a world lacking in entertainment, people will naturally not miss big news such as the "open and secret struggles" among nobles and wealthy people - just like in modern society, there is always a crowd of spectators watching the grievances and feuds between various wealthy and famous people.
Such a big commotion naturally sparked heated discussions among people.
"What on earth is that place?"
"It must be a good place with a lot of gold and silver."
"I'm more curious about who will get the spot in the end."
"I am the second young master of a noble family!"
"I guess she's the eldest daughter of a chaebol!"
"The Second Young Master is a noble!"
"But the eldest lady is richer! Wasn't it the eldest lady who got the limited edition item from Yuyue Store last time?"
Both sides were very focused in the discussion and had their own arguments, which made them seem very credible.
Such a wonderful discussion aroused the curiosity of passers-by.
Then more and more people joined the discussion, and the heat naturally continued to grow.
On the one hand, people are curious about who will get the final spots.
On the other hand, I am also very curious about what kind of place can attract these high-ranking aristocrats, wealthy tycoons and tycoons to flock to it.
They are used to seeing good things and they are fighting for them like this, so it must be a very good place.
At this time, the beautiful brochure prepared by Yu Yue came in handy again.
Not only did she make these into "brochures", she also carefully selected some good angles to make a batch of scenery posters. (Of course, most of these are concept drawings before they are completely completed)
These are then laid out in various stores related to the Ugetsu store.
You can always see it if you pass by the store.
These exquisite posters that form a dimensionality reduction attack further attracted people's attention and aroused countless imaginations and aspirations.
Humans are visual creatures
.
In front of a picture that is shocking enough and beautiful enough.
People tend to ignore "small issues" such as whether the journey is convenient, whether the food and drink are good or expensive, whether there will be mosquito bites, etc.
Coupled with the fact that the nobles were vying for the spots, they had a preconceived notion that it was "definitely a good idea".
This naturally stimulated their yearning even more.
In addition to these, Yu Yue also produced various related wall calendars, desk calendars, postcards and other peripheral products to be sold in the Sea Park after the opening - anyway, as long as it is paper-related, the omnipotent Xiaonan can handle it, there is no need to make molds, and there is no need to consider various costs (except Xiaonan’s labor), so Yu Yue naturally feels at ease to make demands.
Xiaonan has also gotten used to accepting requests - now she is already a skilled paper product outsourcing worker.
In the past, she still needed Yu Yue's guidance on how to do it and what effect to achieve.
Now she has improved to the point where she can provide two versions for Yu Yue to choose from according to her needs.
This progress and work attitude are truly what Party A loves the most.
So no matter whether it is Yu Yue or other bosses who come to him, none of them are dissatisfied.
——Of course, there are people who want to default on their debts, but in such cases, Xiaonan just needs to go to their house and "talk", and the problem is basically solved.
It's not a big problem.
Yu Yue is quite optimistic about the market for these souvenirs.
Food, accommodation and lodging during travel are certainly a source of income.
But the profits brought by various souvenirs will definitely not be small.
Even more.
There may be only five tourists, but who doesn’t have five relatives and friends?
Each person buys five and gives one free, so for ten people that’s fifty copies.
Many people don't even have just five close friends - it's not uncommon for them to have seven, eight, or even ten.
Online shopping is now possible, but it is not as developed as the modern society in which Ugetsu lived.
You can buy local specialties without leaving your home.
Now if you want to give some specialty as a gift, you can only go to the local area or buy it from various local merchants.
What's more, with online shopping so developed in modern society, the souvenir market is still making a lot of money.
Yuyue is even planning to cooperate with Yuyue Express to launch a separate "A Letter from the Other Side of the Sea" service.
Open a mailbox specifically in Sea Paradise.
exist
Here, people can write a short message on the postcards they bought, then affix a stamp that is unique to Sea Paradise and send it to their relatives and friends.
We are also planning to update the designs of postcards and stamps according to seasonal changes.
Let people have different freshness all year round.
And because these can only be bought at Sealand, if someone is so unlucky as to have a collecting habit...
Then you can only find time to come to the sea park throughout the year.
If it runs well, Sand Village will also launch corresponding services.
Yu Yue also thought of the name "Message from the End of the Desert".
They are all Yu Yue’s projects. We all have flesh and blood. We can’t favor one over the other.
This way, we can also promote Yuyue Express.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
As for special limited edition commemorative editions or something like that... these will definitely be available in the future, but they will be iterative products in future version updates, so there is no rush now.
There must always be some room for upgrading future projects, just as the next generation of electronic products will always be better than the previous generation.
"Well... that's about it."
After the fifth meeting, Yu Yue distributed the latest revised plan to all participants.
Because everything starts from scratch, various problems and opportunities will be encountered in the process, so the entire sea park project is also adjusted at any time according to the progress.
For example, Yu Yue had never thought that a spot would be so competitive.
I haven’t decided whether to launch a second phase of this activity.
Yu Yue breathed a sigh of relief.
Although she had already explained her plan, it was a large project with many items after all, and she did not expect these people to master it immediately, so she asked Uchiha Shisui to prepare enough plans in advance and send them to them so that they could study them after they returned.
And then...
"Where's the Mizukage?"
She even blinked in surprise when she discovered that the representative of the Hidden Mist Village was not the Mizukage.
"I'm very sorry, but the Mizukage-sama is not feeling well."
The representative of the Hidden Mist Village replied respectfully.
"uncomfortable?"
"Yes, not in good condition."
The voice and eyes of the representative from the Hidden Mist Village were a little vague.
In fact, the Mizukage was not really sick, he was just too tired.
Host
An auction certainly isn't more physically demanding than a ninja's mission.
However, because they were dealing with big customers from the Hidden Mist Village, the energy consumed easily exceeded that of S-level missions.
After receiving Dao Yu Yue's arrangements, the shadows of each village naturally notified the various agents.
Of course, their rhetoric was also unified by Yu Yue. It was not "We have five places here, you guys compete for it", but "Because the qualifications are really very few, we tried our best and finally only got five places. You adults are all distinguished guests of our village. It is definitely not our decision to give it to someone and not to someone... After thinking about it, we can only create an environment for you, please compete ."
"I believe that no matter who wins in the end, no one will complain. Of course, we will do our best to get more places for you, but since you adults cannot get the qualifications, our small ninja village has limited capabilities."
These words are all flattering and give the adults enough face.
Under normal circumstances, they might even think that the village leaders were not doing their job well and would inevitably say a few difficult words to them.
But in this competitive situation, they will definitely not make things difficult for Ying.
On the one hand, they already have various cooperation with the Ninja Village, so there is really no need for them to turn against each other over one thing. On the other hand, if they mess with the Shadow at this time, who knows if it will benefit other competitors?
Those bastards are not good people.
It would be better to be generous and agree to it.
Anyway, if we compete, no matter what happens, we will never lose.
The top aristocratic tycoons are all very confident in themselves.
Even if they were not embarrassed, such a thrilling auction also drained a lot of energy from the shadows in each village.
It's simple. The people around him are all his financial backers. If anything goes wrong, they can't escape the responsibility.
If there is any friction or a big fight during the process, if they don't handle it well, big problems may arise.
It is inevitable to feel tired after going through the entire auction with such tense nerves.
Even for some individuals, such as the Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village, where the entire village is filled with a militant spirit.
He would rather do an S-level mission than go through it a second time.
It's really exhausting.
The Mizukage was a little better, he didn't like to use physical force to solve problems.
The clans are in a difficult position and are inevitably a little disadvantaged when hosting the event.
After the end, the fatigue inevitably increased.
Who would have thought that a 'trial operation' quota could cause such a big stir?
The Fourth Mizukage felt that he had really used up all the words and smiles he had for the next two years.
I still feel the muscles in my cheeks are stiff.
...But no matter what, the first step in the transformation of the Hidden Mist Village has been sold.
And as it stands now, there is still great hope.
So no matter how difficult or tiring it is, he will definitely hold on.
On the other hand, when talking about the big move of Yuyue Store in the Water Kingdom, the great nobles of the Water Kingdom will naturally not be left out.
This is Yu Yue Store’s gold medal customer.
A special existence who always creates sales miracles for Yuyue Store.
Yu Yue would naturally not forget such a special person.
Although with his wealth and skills, he would definitely be able to get an invitation, Yu Yue still sent someone to deliver one to show his appreciation.
This thoughtful "little touch" naturally won the favor of the nobles.
Is it this invitation that he cares about?
Of course not. He is rich and powerful, so how could he not get an invitation letter?
What he cared about was the sincerity of Yuyue Store behind this invitation.
This proved that in Yu Yue's eyes, I was special.
It's different from other people who just spend money.
It is this special feature that makes the nobles so generous whether they are spending money or cooperating.
Since he was happy, he would naturally not let Yu Yue Store suffer losses.
And the "support" from the big guys is also very simple.
That means spending money.
Although the invitation letter and accommodation are free, he can pay for it after he gets there.
Anyway, the things in Yuyue Store are always interesting.
It’s worth buying.
Even if you don't need it yourself, giving it to others or rewarding it to your subordinates are both good choices.
The nobleman happily set off with his men.
Then the people of the Hidden Mist Village truly witnessed how terrifying the purchasing power of the great nobles was.
On the first day of our stay, the great noble of the Water Country waved his hand in the shopping district:
"Pearl oysters, right? Give me one hundred first. Open them right here."
Hoshigaki Kisame, who was carrying out pearl oysters in groups of ten, suddenly started to tremble. If it weren't for his excellent reaction ability, he would have almost dropped the box of pearl oysters in front of the customers.
But even so, his mind had not yet recovered from the shock.
——Why would anyone spend hundreds of dollars to buy pearl oysters?
Of course, more importantly.
They have less than 100 in stock now!!
