Chapter 1887 Getting the IFC Contract -Part 1
Obviously, Jin did not listen to the System to do the dungeon instances as recommended. Instead, he took the remaining time before sleepy time to look at the forums. Pandarens finally cleared the Dark Days Dungeons with the communities' help and more were doing so within the hour that celebrated the first official clear of the instance.
Information was released within the Dark Days' forum sub thread and people started compiling the data as well as simple tricks that could enhance the cultivator's chance to clear it. There was no doubt about it, the latest Dark Days dungeon was one of Jin's latest and most profitable dungeons that he had ever made.
People were praising the change of charge per entry to charge per time limit. This gave some of the cultivators the pressure to clear the map within the time limit but it also allowed cultivators to do reckless stuff like suiciding in one portion of the map just so that they could reappear healthy to do the next portion.
Of course, there were people who believed that this was merely the first portion of the Dark Days Dungeon and if Jin were to do something like this particular time limit battle, distance would eventually play a part of the equation. Checkpoints and maps would be larger and there would be a disadvantage in trying to 'suicide' oneself just to clear a mob and return again. After all, you need to clear a particular distance to reach the area.
And so far, the limitation of the cultivation techniques. The choice to only bring one technique also enabled the Cultivators to practice that particular technique to their satisfaction. Some even challenged themselves to bring a lesser used technique and attempted to clear the dungeon. (After all, they had brought the premium tier monthly dungeon pass which allowed them to choose a dungeon for the week and play it unlimited times.)
With that said, the change of entry rules for Dark Days Dungeon had made the Monthly Dungeon Pass to be one of the best buys to a certain group of cultivators. They were not only able to try out the Dungeon to their maximum satisfaction but they also got to test out their theories within the Panda Muscles Instance as mentioned previously. And if they had enough, they would enjoy the remaining time to soak in the Hot Spring Instance where they get to relax and feel fresh before getting out of the dungeon store.
This whole package deal was something that a few customers had been waiting for months and if Jin were to release this meant that he was going to create a few more extra instances that could help complement the array of existing instances.
Also, Jin had also ensured that their Pandapolis portion for customers was still working fine and dandy after not checking on them for so long. The Casino Hotels and beaches were still of tip top condition for tourists and customers to try out their finest instances to their liking and that was because of Qiu Yue.
After Jin had implemented the monthly pass, Qiu Yue did not hesitate to push for better hotel packages along with such dungeon packages as well. Instead of a monthly deal, it's an all you can visit kind of dungeon pass but its validity depends on the price that had been paid. The most popular deals were the full day pass, three day pass and the whole week pass. There was also a pass where you could choose the number of days and even add on extra days on those existing passes but they were not as popular though they remained an option.
Of course, because of this, the full day, three day, and one week pass often see massive discounts along with the hotel packages that had been bought so as to entice people to get the hotel packages which obviously be more expensive than just the full day pass alone.
With this kind of pricing, all they needed was to advertise in the Pandamonium App as well as social media to gain traction. And speaking of advertisement, the first week of advertisement had proven to be quite a spectacle.
Because of the possibility of earning Panda Coins while capturing the QR codes of said advertisements, the number of clicks and views those advertisements got were in the high numbers, some even exceeding their goals because of the placement of advertisements.
This also gave Qiu Yue the data on which locations were considered prime areas even though she had identified a few previously but back then, those were only theories based on the System's predictive model analysis. With some solid data, she was able to compile and show her potential and existing customers the current data since Qiu Yue said that the advertisement prices were currently experimental and subject to changes. It all depended on how much they would lock on their prices since it was the first time they were doing this.
Thus as money was rolling in, so did the ambition of Jin searching for a new place in either Shanghai or Beijing to target one of China's busiest metropolitical cities to earn the best amount of bucks. And with respect to that, Kong Rong surprisingly replied to him early on about a possible location in Shanghai.
"The rent's expensive but the traffic is high because it's in the Pudong district, Shanghai." Kong Rong said and when Jin asked where the location was exactly, it was in the mall of Shanghai's International Financial Centre (IFC).
"Holy shit, that is expensive territory. But yes, that's definitely tourist and local money."
"Not to mention a lot of pent up salaryman/women waiting to punch the hell out of something because of the work they do. Also, I assume that you can totally buy it, given the amount of money and reputation since I had set a business meeting with the IFC's Director Operations."
"Can I assume he is like a part of my clan, which is why he is able to respond to you so quickly?" That comment made Kong Rong laugh.
