On the third day of the public beta of "Xinghai Era", the trading system monitored by the state was officially launched, and immediately ushered in a wave of trading peaks. In just the first hour, the trading scale of virtual items exceeded 10 billion.
Zhang Maosen is a disabled person. He lost his legs because of a car accident. With only a middle school diploma, and his feet are inconvenient, he can't find a job to support himself.
This time, in the public beta of "Xinghai Era", Xingyao Technology promised to do public welfare through the government and provide 5 million virtual jobs for the disabled. Zhang Maosen just got a job opportunity and got a virtual game headband for free. In "Xinghai" Act as an NPC in Era.
After receiving the game helmet, the staff of Xingyao Technology specially organized their training work and signed a work contract with Xingyao Technology. They will play the role of NPC in the game and provide players with rich plot content, losing their qualifications to become players.
They will have different NPC identities from game players, and have an NPC issuing task system. All jobs and task arrangements are received and issued through the task system.
Zhang Maosen's identity in the world of "Xinghai Era" is a base sergeant named Zhan Yicheng, who acts as a combat mission NPC. In a fixed position, he releases some base construction for players, or hunts and drives away alien monsters.
The content of the work is very simple, follow the task system, walk on the established route, talk to the players according to the content prompted by the system, and speak the language that the NPC should speak.
In the world of "Xinghai Era", Zhang Maosen once again experienced the feeling of having two legs. Because of this, he can't wait to stay in the game world 24 hours a day.
For some disabled friends who are blind, deaf, and aphasia, after entering the world of "Xinghai Era", these problems have returned to normal. For these disabled people, it is no less than a regeneration.
After working in "Era of Stars" for three days, Zhang Maosen received a salary of 120 star coins. The level of the salary is linked to the evaluation of NPC performance, task performance, etc. In addition, there is also Star Technology to provide each Basic salary of 1500 yuan per month.
The opening of the trading system has officially opened a channel for players to trade virtual items in the game.
Game players can trade virtual items and game currency through the trading system. The top NPC has only one authority, and can only exchange salary into cash.
With the development of the trading system, players buy game currency, the market for props is activated, and the ratio of star currency trading has risen again and again, from 1:1 to 1:10, 1:15,, 1: 22, ......, a price for a kung fu.
The trading market is very hot. For game currency, there is only a buyer's market, and there is rarely a seller's market.
According to the latest ratio: 1::27, 120 can be exchanged for 3240 yuan.
Zhang Maosen was very satisfied with this ratio. Without thinking much, he put all the star coins in the account for sale at a price of 1:27.
As soon as the 120 star coins were put on the shelves, they were instantly empty, and the ratio increased by one point. After deducting the 3% transaction fee, 3142.8 yuan was transferred to his bank account.
Zhang Maosen stared blankly at the prompt of the successful transaction. Surprises were mixed. After three days of 'shift', he earned more than 3,000 yuan. The speed of earning money from this 'job' is too fast and incredible. .
"Sir, what's the matter with you? Need help?"
When Zhang Maosen was in a daze, a soldier player in front of him was looking at him with concern and asking.
Zhang Maosen came to his senses and quickly straightened his face.
In addition to this warrior player, there are many players waiting around. He must play a good role in order to be worthy of this salary.
Gu Yuan
Zhang Maosen treats this hard-won 'job' more attentively.
"Well, young warrior, there is a group of acid springers near the base. They will corrode the chassis of the base's construction vehicles. Go and remove them! Killing 10 will give you 1 merit!" Zhang Maosen looked at the player and said solemnly. Post the task.
"I've accepted this quest!" The warrior player nodded happily, successfully accepted the quest, and happily ran to invite the bug.
Immediately afterwards, a player leaned in to pick up the quest.
Zhang Maosen patiently distributed the tasks arranged by the system one by one, and completed the work requirements in strict accordance with the system's language, facial expressions, and action guidelines.
After being disturbed by the 'players' for three days, Zhang Maosen is already very familiar with the job of playing NPC. Sometimes, these players will deliberately test themselves, looking for hidden tasks, and some even want to bribe themselves with items, ... , and so on.
In this regard, Zhang Maosen looked into his eyes and smiled in his heart.
Only those who become 'NPC' know that the system is omnipotent. It monitors players and their every move, generates various tasks, and indicates work arrangements, which are very detailed. They have very limited authority to issue tasks. The right to see that player is more pleasing to the eye, and to arrange some higher-paying tasks for him will have more rights.
They play the role of NPC issuing tasks, as well as performance assessment, performance score evaluation, and as the NPC status level increases, some also participate in some battle plots, ..., and so on. Of course, senior NPCs will also have higher salaries.
I like being surrounded by players to please, this feeling is like traveling to another world and having a new life.
Compared with the loneliness and helplessness in the real world, he in the virtual world is respected, loved, and treated with enthusiasm. Zhang Maosen is particularly nostalgic to stay in this virtual world.
3 hours of working time passed quickly.
Zhang Maosen took off his gaming helmet, and his consciousness returned to reality. What caught his eyes was a simple wooden house and an old wheelchair.
Zhang Maosen looked down at his broken foot, and his eyes were full of loss. At this moment, how much he hoped that the legs in "Xing Yao Era" could also be brought out!
Zhang Maosen quickly regained his confidence. He picked up the mobile phone by the bedside and saw the bank's receipt notification text message. His lost face immediately showed a bright smile full of hope.
The staff of Xingyao Technology told him when they delivered the game helmet.
Xingyao Technology's limb technology is already very advanced. With the technology of consciousness connection, the camera can replace the eyes and give the prosthetic limbs a sense of touch. As long as he saves enough money, it will not take long for him to stand up again in reality.
Zhang Maosen's eyes were full of hope.
For disabled NPCs similar to Zhang Maosen, because of the emergence of "Xinghai Era", the lives of 5 million disabled people and disabled families have undergone tremendous changes.
They have a 'playing' job in "Xinghai Era", which greatly reduces the computing power of game data and greatly enriches the role of game NPCs. At the same time, their lives have value, and their new lives are recognized by players. And you can get paid for your labor through your own labor.
These "rewards", for the disabled families who had been dragged down to extreme poverty by their disability, were like a rush of carbon in the snow, saving them from desperate predicament and bringing new hope to five million poor families.
The public beta of "Xing Yao Era" has an extremely far-reaching impact on the land of China and human society.
