Tian Du City.
Sword Card Master Association.
Lu Ming looked at the card in his hands and was deep in his thoughts.
This card was very good. It permanently improved the skin and greatly improved the attractiveness of the Sword Card Master Association, especially the burly men of the association.
They seemed to have a much better aura.
Even the cold and heartless wolf kids who did not interact with people had become little puppies. They could even go to certain places and earn more than ten thousand yuan a day.
Well …
Very good.
The effect was obvious.
Well …
There was a problem.
This card had a certain lethality!
Initially, when Lu Ming used it as an Attack Card, its lethality was pitifully weak. This was why Lu Ming complained. However, if it was used as a skin care card …
He had to consider this!
At the thought of this …
Lu Ming looked at the test data again.
— —
Four Stars Beast/Plant, Bloom, Die.
Five-star Beast/Plant, Bloom, Die.
Six-star ferocious beasts/plants would only be weakened if they bloomed.
— —
"Oh …"
Lu Ming understood right away.
True enough.
To beasts below six-star, this card could kill them in an instant!
In fact, it was very weak.
After all, it was a Six Stars Limit Card. It could only bully beasts below Six Stars. Was it not trash? Any Six Stars Limit Card would have an explosive effect!
However!
There was a problem!
If it was used as cosmetics …
Your cosmetics could actually kill people. What if someone used this to kill people …
Well …
Lu Ming would be scolded to death.
"A Six Stars Limit Card can't be used unless one is at Six Stars?"
Xiao-Xiaojian said weakly.
Which Six Stars Card is not better than you?!
"Who cares about this?"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
As long as it was a cosmetics card, everyone would only remember that this card could kill people and was very harmful. No one cared about your abilities …
Therefore …
Lu Ming thought for a long time and decided to put it aside.
He was not short of money. There was no need to work so hard for the time being!
However …
In the afternoon, Li Haoran came and successfully solved the problem that he was not short of money.
"Master!"
"If we don't sell the cards now, we can't take it anymore."
Li Haoran felt sad.
“？？？ Didn't you hoard some before? "
Lu Ming was confused.
Last time I scammed … Ah no, the money I earned last time should still be there!
"The consumption is quite high."
Li Haoran sighed.
The association was too poor.
The operation of Moon Shadow Island required money.
He needed money to nourish his master's body.
The operation of the academy at the crossroads required money.
The operation of the Moon Shadow ruins also needed money.
Water and electricity bills, property fees, and the like also cost money.
Therefore …
The association's funds were plummeting, and the cash they had saved up was almost depleted. Li Haoran was just short of taking on a part-time job as a delivery boy.
Lu Ming: "…"
Who asked you to waste your money!!!
"How much longer can you last?"
Lu Ming sighed.
"If we tighten it a little, it should be able to last for half a month."
Li Haoran said solemnly.
"Understood."
Lu Ming rubbed his head.
It seemed that …
He had no choice but to sell the skin care card.
However …
When it came to lethality, how to sell it and how to sell it was another problem. He had to avoid the public opinion that 'cosmetics can kill people'!
Hence …
Lu Ming specially handed this task to Zhang Yang who was getting rid of his wrinkles.
"Can you settle it?"
Lu Ming said in a low voice.
"Yes!"
Zhang Yang said proudly.
Without the wrinkles that resembled growth rings, he looked at least ten years younger! He was in high spirits, as if he had returned to his youth.
"Okay."
Lu Ming nodded slightly.
Everyone had their own specialties.
In terms of public opinion, it should not be a problem to hand it over to Zhang Yang. Although there were some side effects, Lu Ming could already face it calmly.
After all …
He was not the one getting beaten up.
Hence …
Lu Ming began to test the skin care card again. xx beast species corresponded to xx effect, xx plant species corresponded to xx effect, and so on.
…
Right then …
Senior Zhang Yang also began to publicize the skin care card.
However …
The direction of his publicity …
"Public account: Mysterious News! Lu Ming's new card has been exposed! "
"Six Stars Limit Card!"
"A Battle Card with incredible functions!"
"Card Name — Buried Flowers! Blooming and dazzling flowers on the enemy's body! Death like the withering of petals! A beautiful and illusory dance of death! "
Afterward …
The video started.
Beasts bloomed, flowers withered, beasts died.
It was simple.
Straightforward.
The short publicity and video caused an uproar on the Internet.
Almost everyone knew that Lu Ming was testing a certain card, as well as its beautiful and illusory killing function!
Think about it.
He raised his hand.
Blooming and withering of flowers, the death of the enemy. What a shocking function!
Hence …
There was an uproar on the Internet.
Lu Ming was shocked. "Is there something wrong with the direction of the publicity?"
It was not a good idea to fool the public. People were not fools these days. This card was not suitable to be used as a Battle Card. You would be scolded to death!
"Since when was there any publicity?"
Zhang Yang smiled. "This is called breaking news! There are both real and fake news when it comes to breaking news … "
“？？？”
Lu Ming was taken aback. "Can this be done?"
"Everyone is doing this."
Zhang Yang was very calm. "Just watch the show."
Hence …
He pushed forward again.
The attention on the Buried Flowers Card increased …
Even the presidents of various associations in Tian Du City kept a close eye on it.
"Lu Ming, I heard that you have a new card?"
— This was the president of the Summoner Association.
"Cough, Lu Ming, don't tell me that you used petals as an array? My son is still in your association! "
— This was the president of the Array Masters Association.
"He's here? When is the news conference? I'll go and support him. "
— This was the president of the Energy Warriors Association.
…
The attention on the Internet increased.
Just as the craze reached its peak, Zhang Yang 'refuted the rumors' in the name of the 'Sword Card Master Association'.
"No! Don't talk nonsense! I don't have this card! "
Zhang Yang rejected it decisively.
It was a pity …
The familiar three times of shifting the blame to others made people suspicious. At this very moment, the official account of the mysterious breaking news coincidentally discovered some videos of plants blooming …
The location was at the Sword Card Master Association.
Hence …
This time, everyone knew that Lu Ming was secretly studying the Buried Flowers Card. All the cultivators were attracted by the mysterious slaying ability …
All the associations kept a close eye on it!
At the same time.
In various forums, cultivators were having a heated discussion about whether the Buried Flowers Card surpassed the phenomenal card …
Flowers bloomed and withered, and people died!
This was an amazing card. If it was a Six Star Limit Card, would it be able to harm a seven-star?
Right then …
Some strange associations also popped up at this time, discussing whether this card was' too murderous and would cause mass deaths'.
For example —
Social Stability Association: If it was used by the Assassin industry on a large scale, it would easily cause social chaos …
For example —
Vocation Balance Association: Will the appearance of this card destroy a certain vocation …
And so on.
The effect of Lu Ming's card was too shocking and it attracted all kinds of feedback.
Very soon …
The mysterious person appeared again — "Due to the fact that the Buried Flowers Card is too powerful, the Sword Card Master Association is discussing whether to release this card!"
Once the news came out, it caused another sensation.
Those who supported and opposed the Buried Flowers Card began to argue fiercely.
In the end …
The mysterious person revealed — "In order to maintain social stability, the damage of the Buried Flowers Card may be reduced by two levels. It will no longer be convenient for certain special vocations. Haha, the brainless stabilizers have won again. "
At this moment …
Just when people were doubting it, the Buried Flowers Card was released!
— —
Level: Limit Six Star Limit
Function: Below Six Star Level
Function: Instant kill and living creatures
— —
"True enough …"
"Sigh, what era is this? There are still cards that are too powerful!"
"Why are these idiots still around?!"
"Exactly."
Everyone sighed.
A good card was now useless!
Everyone knew that a powerful extraordinary card had been destroyed just like that! Due to certain reasons, it could not be made public!
Regarding this card, people only had one curiosity — What was the use of the blooming flowers?!
There had always been people who were curious.
Hence …
After the Buried Flowers Card was released, people immediately tried it and discovered various magical functions. Whitening, acne removal, wrinkle removal, blackhead removal, moisturizing …
Wait a minute.
Afterward …
People went crazy.
The number of orders for the Buried Flowers Card also broke new highs overnight!
It created a new record!
It might hurt people by accident?
Who cared?!
That thing was a Battle Card!
Of course.
In order to emphasize its skin care effect, people affectionately called it the Skin Care Card.
Hence …
A possible crisis of public opinion was resolved just like that!
Look, makeup could kill people. It seemed very scary, right? If the Battle Card had a cosmetic effect, wouldn't it sound very awesome?!
"…"
What else could Lu Ming say?
Amazing!
He was indeed a professional marketer!
Comrade Old Zhang had very strong professionalism.
Inexplicably …
He thought of a piece of news.
A certain cell phone was about to be released. They did a survey of the public and the final result was that 40% of the people were willing to change to the latest cell phone.
Hence …
Two news releases were released — "XX cell phone goes on sale! 40% of the people are willing to change to the latest cell phone! "
And — "XX cell phone goes on sale! 60% of the people are not willing to buy! "
"Look."
This was the wonder of literature.
The ancients had a saying, 'If you learn mathematics, physics, and chemistry well, you have nothing to fear when you travel the world. If you learn self-media well, you can scam as many people as you can.'
Right now …
Classmate Old Zhang had mastered the essence of self-media.
Of course.
Lu Ming was puzzled. "Do these so-called associations really exist?"
Cough, cough.
Li Haoran coughed. "They have just been established."
"…"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Fine.
True enough, it was a complete set of procedures.
Product disclosure — Hiring fake reviewers — Product warm-up — Product launch — (There might be many steps in between to ride on the popularity) …
This was indeed a self-media!
However …
Just as he was about to reward Zhang Yang, he discovered that Zhang Yang was in a wheelchair. His head was wrapped in gauze and he walked out with difficulty …
Lu Ming was speechless.
What are you doing now?!
"Pfft!"
Zhang Yang was furious. "?? Pfft? Pfft! Pfft?? Pfft??? Pfft?!!! "
"…"
Lu Ming was speechless.
"Cough.
"Someone touched him when he was eating outside."
Li Haoran walked over quietly and passed him a note. "Someone pasted this on him."
Eh?
Lu Ming opened the note and read it — "The Flower Burial Card! I spent all my money on the shares of the Assassin Organization and you're telling me that it has been compromised?! "
→_→
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Fine.
This time, it was directed at him …
These words sounded like 'lousy planner, return my saber sister' …
However …
It seemed that they had been influenced by Zhang Yang's various mysterious revelations …
Tsk.
They were just leeks.
"Take good care of Old Zhang."
Lu Ming consoled him.
Old Zhang had sacrificed himself for the association this time.
"Understood."
Li Haoran said seriously, "We will definitely find the murderer this time!"
Hence …
Under the pressure of the Sword Card Master Association and the support of rich people, they soon found the murderer — a young Assassin.
"Why did you hit him?"
"I lost money in the stock market."
"Why did you hit Zhang Yang?"
"The Assassin friends nearby told me that the other members of the Sword Card Master Association are very fierce. It is the easiest to hit him and they won't be traced … This is because there are too many people who hit him! Damn it, I knew that these scoundrels were lying to me!! "
“？？？”
…
Of course.
It was a trivial matter to be beaten up.
Although Zhang Yang was beaten up, the development of the association became smoother.
Under the influence of marketing, the sales of the Flower Burial Card skyrocketed. All the disciples of the association began to create the Flower Burial Card and collectively, they entered a well-off society …
Even Zhou Jie could not control himself.
At this moment.
The Sword Card Master Association had a profitable business!
In one day, they had collectively lifted themselves out of poverty!
In two days, the disciples of the association were well-off!
In three days, the Sword Card Master Association was on the road to becoming rich!
…
In just a few days, the Sword Card Master Association had a large amount of savings and funds. The disciples of the Sword Card Master Association had also become wealthy.
It was a pity …
This situation did not last for long.
Three days later.
The president of the Water Elementalist Association personally made a call to express his strong protest against Lu Ming's involvement in the skincare industry!
“？？？”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck.
Wait a minute.
Water Elementalist?
What did this have to do with them?!
"This is what happened."
Li Haoran sighed. "80% of the vocation is made up of ladies. Therefore, the part-time jobs and services in the association are basically nursing professionals …"
"Does the Water Elementalist Association also have a card business?"
Lu Ming was doubtful.
"Yes."
Li Haoran nodded. "The makeup card set produced by the Water Elementalist Association and the Card Creators Association is the best makeup card series in the market. It includes but is not limited to: Moisturizing Card, Moisturizing Card, Lubricating Card, Aromatherapy Card, Deoiling Card, Skin Softening Card and other series of cards.
"They have a 70 to 30 ratio with the Card Creators Association.
"The income is stable.
"It is also one of the most profitable associations among all."
Li Haoran's voice was low.
"Can't they earn money together?"
Lu Ming sighed.
Look.
In the past, the Take-Out Association also quarreled with them. Didn't they end up together in the end? It was not a big deal to begin with!
"It's different."
Li Haoran said in a low voice, "Their makeup card series can only retain moisture for a certain period. For example, monthly, weekly, annual and so on …
"Therefore, they also have a large number of membership services, weekly, monthly and annual cards.
"This ensures a cycle of sales.
"And our card …
"Permanent!
"Although we can only choose one function at a time, due to its unique permanent nature, almost all the ladies come to pre-order our Flower Burial Card!
"According to sources …
"Over the past two days, the Water Elemental Association has received a large number of refunds, refunds and complaints. Their financial flow almost collapsed. Therefore, the president has to step in personally!"
Li Haoran spread his hands.
Lu Ming: → _ →
What nonsense was this!
However …
They had nothing to do with the Water Elemental Association. Go ahead and condemn them if you want …
I will pretend that I did not hear it.
However …
Lu Ming did not expect that …
Very soon …
He received another communication from the president of the Earth Elemental Association. They strongly condemned Lu Ming for interfering in the cosmetics industry and not communicating with them.
Lu Ming was speechless.
Earth Elemental Association?!
What did the cosmetics have to do with them?!
"Cough."
Li Haoran felt very helpless after investigating. "According to sources, the popular volcanic rock facial cleanser in the market is made of raw materials that they painstakingly dug out from the vicinity of the volcano …"
"…"
Lu Ming sighed.
Alright.
What else could he say?
Earth Elemental Association …
Oh, there were too few people in this industry. It was the same as those who studied civil engineering in his previous life …
A niche group. Ignore it!
This was what Lu Ming had in mind.
However …
He did not expect that these two associations were merely the beginning.
Very soon …
The Herb Association strongly condemned Lu Ming's behavior. This was because a large number of herb-type and essence-type cosmetics originated from their association!
Afterward …
A bunch of associations such as the Chemistry Association, the Summoner Association, the Ding Xiu Association, the Swordsman Association and dozens of other associations strongly condemned Lu Ming in succession!
Wait a minute.
Lu Ming looked dumbstruck. "Why did the Summoner Association condemn him?"
"Cough.
"Some of the raw materials came from some of the summoned beasts that they breed!"
Li Haoran said truthfully.
"What about the Swordsman Association?"
Lu Ming was very confused.
"Manicure?"
Li Haoran scratched his head. "It is highly possible that they are in the plastic surgery industry … After all, the ladies have already used the Flower Burial Card to beautify themselves. They might not need the Swordsman's exquisite swordsmanship for plastic surgery."
"…"
Lu Ming was silent.
Afterward …
He counted the notifications that he had received that afternoon and was shocked to discover that almost all the industries were actually involved in the beauty and skincare industry!
Even if —
It was a profession that had nothing to do with it!
Qi Cultivator, Hammer Cultivator, Soul Cultivator, Leg Cultivator and so on.
"I actually thought that no one cared about this industry!"
Lu Ming was taken aback.
It turned out that …
Regardless of which world the ladies were in, they cared about beauty!
However …
In this world, makeup could be easily seen through. No one put on thick layers of powder … This made Lu Ming think that everyone did not like makeup!
It turned out that …
Through energy and various cards, the ladies changed their inner selves, their essence!
"I actually thought that all the ladies in this world were born beautiful."
Lu Ming sighed.
Anyway.
He had completely understood the cosmetics industry in this world.
Why did he condemn him …
The reason was very simple.
This was because this industry was extremely profitable!
Any random card could be sold at a sky-high price. The Water Elementalist Association had become one of the most profitable associations! This industry had been making money in a low-profile manner.
In their eyes, the permanent Flower Burial Card was destroying the industry!
To put it bluntly …
The problem was not with the card, but with the sales method.
This world was ultimately different from his previous life. Due to the existence of energy, there might be ways to permanently improve one's talent and body.
However …
No one was willing to do it.
Even if one was willing, others would not be willing to do it.
Wouldn't it be better for everyone to sell their annual cards?
Wouldn't it be better for everyone to sell their memberships together?
Everyone could set up a system from Vip1, Vip2, Vip3, Vip4 … all the way to Vip13. Wouldn't it be better?
Why was your card permanent?!
Do you know that you are degrading yourself and others in this industry?!
In fact …
When the Flower Burial Card was put on sale and the permanent skincare effect of the Flower Burial Card became very popular, these associations were destined to wage war with Lu Ming!
Especially —
Cosmetics giant, Water Elementalist Association.
70% of their association's revenue came from cosmetics. Lu Ming's card broke their foundation!
"Master?"
Li Haoran was somewhat worried. "Why don't we stop for a while?"
"No need."
Lu Ming squinted his eyes. "I want to see what they can do!"
…
At this very moment …
The Card Creators Association.
The new president of Tian Du City was burly and sitting in front of his office desk.
In front of him.
The assistant was seriously reporting the recent battle regarding the cosmetics industry and the impact it had on the Card Creators Association's revenue …
After a long time …
The new president suddenly slapped his thigh.
"Gan Linniang!
"I've thought it through!
"That day, Lu Ming seemed to be scolding me for being blind!"
Ah?
The assistant's expression was sullen.
It has been so many days and you only realized it now? Also, can't you be more confident and remove the 'seemed to be'???
