Chapter 36 The most sincere invitation
Xie Mingzhe's store closed on time at 12 noon; 00.
Today's store still wrote an announcement "Released a new card at 11:30 tomorrow", because Xie Mingzhe already had some ideas in his mind and planned to use the afternoon to draw two new cards.
After closing the store, he went offline to have lunch and gave his brain a full rest. When he finished the meal and went online again at 1:00 pm, he heard a system prompt sound coming from his ear: "If you have new emails, please be careful to check them."
Xie Mingzhe walked to the living room and opened the email address and saw an email.
The email comes from a person with the ID "Ghost Fire". The content is: "Hello Uncle Fat, I am the president of the Ghost Prison Guild. Several players from our club have important things to discuss with you. I have already given you VIP access permissions in the Ghost Prison Guild territory. If you have time, you can come and visit at any time and look forward to your visit."
Xie Mingzhe turned around and came to the galaxy navigation map, and found that there was another guild territory star.
The territory star of the Ghost Prison is pure black, and the planet is surrounded by ghost energy, which is really like the "underworld".
He has checked a lot of club information in the past two days and has some understanding of the characteristics of several major clubs. Ghost Prison is mainly based on earth-based cards. Master Zheng Feng's defensive counterattack, Gui Sirui's ghost cards, and Liu Jingxu's demon cards are all very famous. Among them, Lao Zheng is an old player who debuted in the first season. He is now in his thirties and is highly respected by the new generation of players. Gui Sirui is one of the very popular players among the younger generation. His supernatural horror style has attracted many loyal fans. Liu Jingxu won the championship in the eighth season and is a research-oriented madman, a typical "late-up" player.
This club is also very strong, and has won many trophies in individual competitions, double competitions and team competitions.
Why did the Ghost Prison suddenly look for him? He made three cards at once today, Zhong Kui, Sha Seng, and Cao Chong, all of them targeting the Ghost Prison. Could it be that the great gods were looking for him to seek punishment?
Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhe replied: "President, if you look for me to scold me, then I'd better not go?"
Guihuo immediately replied: "Uncle Fat, you are thinking too much. We have important things to discuss with you."
What’s important? Is it to customize cards like Master Fang Yu? Or to buy copyrights like Master Nie?
No matter what, since he came to the door politely, Xie Mingzhe decided to take a trip. Anyway, the guild territory is a safe area and cannot open a PK. He would not be besieged when he went to the Ghost Prison Guild, right?
He teleported from the galaxy map to the Ghost Prison Guild.
The architectural style of the Ghost Prison is different from any guild he has been to before - Fenghua, Judgment and other guilds are all buildings on the ground, but Ghost Prison is a huge underground castle. This is a bit like the "Underworld" he has seen on TV. The dim environment is surrounded by black evil underground buildings, and even the environmental music has changed, which is so gloomy and scary.
Xie Mingzhe used to love reading supernatural novels and had watched a lot of horror movies. Therefore, the design of the Guild Territory of the Ghost Prison is very suitable for his wishes.
The president came to the entrance to pick him up and took him to the office politely. The two of them took the elevator down the huge underground castle, which felt like they had come to the underworld in person... However, setting the office on the eighteenth floor underground is not auspicious!
There is probably no such thing as the "Eighteen-layer hell" in traditional culture in this world, otherwise, the important office area should not be set up on the 18th floor underground.
There was a skull on the office door, and Xie Mingzhe pushed the door open and went in.
The guild territory in the game can obviously be designed freely in different styles, but the layout inside the office is similar. He once again saw the club badge on the wall in the middle - the badge of the ghost prison, which is a pattern similar to "underground abyss". The words "ghost prison" are written in the center of the abyss. The font is surrounded by black air. This is to carry out the horror style to the end, and the characteristics are very distinctive.
There were three people sitting side by side in the office. There was no need to guess that they must be the three players he targeted. Sure enough, the president took the initiative to introduce: "These three are Gui Sirui, Liu Jingxu and Zheng Feng from our club."
Xie Mingzhe walked up to them and smiled very kindly: "A few great gods came to me, aren't they asking for punishment for the sake of a military force?"
Zheng Feng took the lead and said, "That won't be that you are not targeting us only."
Gui Sirui also said: "Don't worry, we are not that stingy. As professional players, it's very common for decks to be targeted. We have something else to discuss with you."
Liu Jingxu took the initiative to stand up and walked up to him, and said seriously: "Uncle Fat, your three cards are designed well, perfectly avoiding some official restrictions on the Immediate Death Card. Zhong Kui designed it as a variant of the Immediate Death skill. Cao Chong's skill design is very similar to the "Exile" strong control skills."
Xie Mingzhe was a little confused: "Exile? Does Cao Chong's title mean that the effect of exile is equivalent to the effect of exile?"
"That's right." Liu Jingxu said, "Exile is the toughest of all controls. It is a control skill of "stadium isolation". Although the exiled cards will not die, they cannot play any role. This exiled skill was first developed by the chief designer of the Temple of the Gods. After that, major clubs followed suit and made some similar cards. But the best effect at present is your Cao Chong's "elephant". We have conducted experiments in the arena. The elephant was completely exiled and fixed in the boat. We cannot return to the field until the end of the game."
Xie Mingzhe came from this idea when he designed Cao Chong - since you can't get rid of your elephant in seconds, I can drive the elephant to another place. Unexpectedly, this kind of control technique is called "exile" in the star card world, and he feels that he has a new idea of card making!
Liu Jingxu took the initiative to extend his hand: "I appreciate your card making talent very much. I want to make friends with you and study how to make cards together. This time I came to see you in person because I wanted to invite you to join the ghost prison and come to our club to be a card designer."
Xie Mingzhe smiled and scratched his head: "Thank you for your kindness, I don't want to be a card designer in the club."
Zheng Feng said: "Let's listen to our conditions first, don't rush to refuse. Xiaogui, show him the contract."
Lao Zheng was very happy to do things, and even the contract was ready... Xie Mingzhe took the contract from Xiaogui and looked carefully. He was a little surprised: "When he was working in the club, the copyright of the designed card belongs to me, and the club only reserves the priority right to use?"
Zheng Feng nodded simply: "Yes. What's the condition?"
Xie Mingzhe didn't expect that Ghost Prison really dared to give him the copyright of the card. Wouldn't he be afraid of him taking the card to change jobs? Looking down, the designer changed jobs during the signing period, or leaked the club's R&D secrets, and compensated ten times the penalty for liquidated damages.
Sure enough, there are restrictions, but not changing jobs or leaking secrets during the signing period. This is the professional ethics that designers should abide by. If Xie Mingzhe really wants to be a designer, this contract is the best condition he can get - an annual salary of one million, a good design card will receive a bonus commission, and you can get dividends at the end of the year. The copyright of the card belongs to him. The club only reserves the right to use it first. This treatment is probably the top in the league, right?
Seeing the other party silent, Zheng Feng immediately asked, "A club has also looked for you before?"
Xie Mingzhe nodded: "Yes."
Zheng Feng said patiently: "Let me analyze it for you. In the top first-class clubs at the top of the league's pyramid, the rules and regulations on the ruling there are very strict, and it is impossible to release card copyrights for designers. Fenghua does not lack designers, Tang Muzhou, Zhen Man, and Xu Changfeng, and the ability to create original cards is at the first-class level in the entire league, and there is no need to take such a big risk to sign you."
"The character card you are good at is difficult to match with insects in the Dark Night City Club; Liushuang City is an aquatic creature, and the four brothers are mainly engaged in water systems, so it is difficult for you to integrate into it; as for the Temple of the Gods, their card designer is the strongest original designer in the league, and has a very good relationship with the contestants. You will compete for his position in the past, and the Temple of the Gods will not spend such a big price to sign you - so, only our ghost prison is left."
Zheng Feng is worthy of being an old player in the first season and knows the situation of the clubs in the league. He obviously also sincerely wants to sign Xie Mingzhe and analyze the details of all clubs clearly for Xie Mingzhe.
He stood up and walked to Xie Mingzhe, saying earnestly: "Uncle Fat, it's okay to draw pet cards by himself, but if you draw a battle card, you can't go long in the star card world. Because, even if you have outstanding talents, there are many players and designers with outstanding talents like you in other clubs. You just seized the opportunity in the design of the dead card. If you really design a full set of decks, you will definitely not be as good as the great gods such as Tang Muzhou, Nie Yuandao, and Ling Jingtang, and the chief designer of the Temple of the Gods. You can't even compare to Xiao Liu in our club."
"Designing a deck requires a lot of practical experience, not just based on imagination. I have played for nine years and have seen countless newcomers who have outstanding talents but have not been able to continue. The competition in the league is fierce beyond your imagination. If you have no support behind you, you are destined to be a flash in the original world. Your best way out is to sign a club to support you. The owner of the Ghost Prison Club is my cousin, who is only responsible for investment, and I have the final say in the club. We sincerely invite you to join, so the contract you give you can retain the original copyright. Such a contract has rarely appeared since the copyright dispute case in the fifth season."
Gui Sirui also echoed: "Yes, Uncle Fat, the conditions offered by Master are really the treatment that only the chief designer of the alliance can get. We want to sign you. In addition to your talent, there is another reason that Brother Xu likes you very much. He is a test maniac who loves to study cards the most. You two will definitely have a lot of common language together. Moreover, your human card, our ghost card and demon card are very easy to match!"
Liu Jingxu followed closely and said, "My demon clan card is human form, and Xiaogui's ghost card is also human form. Adding your human clan card to our deck will indeed be very good. Lao Zheng has analyzed so much with you, and you should feel our sincerity. Among the first-class clubs in the league, ghost prison is indeed your best choice."
Xie Mingzhe: "..."
The three people's turn of persuasion made him feel a little moved. With the support of top clubs, he can also retain the copyright of the card. As long as he does not betray the club's secrets and does not change jobs casually, he will not only receive high salaries during the signing period, but also freely design cards without any pressure. Moreover, the accumulation of practical experience of these top players can provide him with a lot of ideas for designing cards.
However, when recalling what he said to Brother Chen before, Xie Mingzhe firmly refused.
He looked at Zheng Feng and said politely: "Thank you really, three great gods. I didn't expect you to give me such good treatment... But I'm very sorry, I have found a few partners and plan to start my own business. I can't keep my word."
Zheng Feng frowned: "Can your friends have professional abilities comparable to regular clubs?"
It must be inferior, but Xie Mingzhe has a strange intuition and always feels that he shouldn't sign a club. Although he did not participate in the copyright dispute case back then, he has heard people mention many times recently that signing in to other clubs, even if the conditions given by the other party are good, he will still work for others.
When working, you have to listen to your boss. If one day the concepts are not in line and you have a stumble with the club, and you have never heard of your arm twisting your thighs, when he has conflicts with the club alone, he must be the one who suffers?
Since he has such a strong talent, why should he work for others?
Why not be your boss?
Although Brother Chen’s training studio is not as good as a large club, he has been a practitioner for several years and is not inferior to professional players in terms of familiarity with games. Everyone has been working together for so long and has a tacit understanding.
Instead of signing other clubs, it is better to create a club yourself.
Xie Mingzhe knew that if he thought about it like this, others would think that he was crazy and had too much ambition.
However, he was really unwilling to sign in to the Ghost Prison like this. Even if the Ghost Prison gave him the best conditions, he felt something was short of it.
Maybe you are used to freedom and don’t like to listen to others’ orders?
Nie Yuandao bought copyrights for him. His relationship with Tang Muzhou was equally cooperative. Fang Yu asked him to customize the Death Word card, which was based on his being a freelance designer. Once he signed the Ghost Prison, these things would never happen again.
He had long thought that he would not work for any club.
——The human race card must be added to your deck. Do you want to cooperate with you?
——Then why don’t I create a complete set of character decks and cooperate with myself?
Thinking of this, Xie Mingzhe felt more firm. He looked at the three great gods and said politely: "I really thank you for your appreciation of me, and thank you Master Zheng Feng for analyzing so many pros and cons with me. I know you are sincerely doing my best and want to give me the best development platform. But I am sorry, I will not join the ghost prison, nor will I join any club. Just think I am too stubborn. This is my persistence, and no matter how good the conditions are, it will not be shaken."
The other party's firm gaze and expression made Zheng Feng stunned. He couldn't help asking: "You are not a middle-aged fat uncle, are you?"
Xie Mingzhe smiled: "You are so frank, I'm embarrassed to hide it from you. I'm really not a fat uncle."
Zheng Feng: “…………”
Liu Jingxu and Gui Sirui wanted to persuade each other again, but Zheng Feng reached out to stop them.
He walked to the fat uncle and said, "It seems that we can only meet on the field in the future?"
Xie Mingzhe said seriously: "Maybe? If I were lucky."
Zheng Feng patted his shoulder readily: "Okay, I won't force you, I will see you again if you are destined to be together in the future."
Xie Mingzhe and the three of them thanked each other again, then turned around and left the Ghost Prison.
After he left, Liu Jingxu couldn't help but say, "Old Zheng, why don't you continue to persuade him?"
Zheng Feng shook his head helplessly: "I can't persuade him."
Gui Sirui was puzzled: "Did he not shake such good conditions?"
Zheng Feng seemed to remember some past events, sighed and said, "In the past nine years, I have met many designers. Some of them have either short-sighted eyes and ruined their future; or they have ambition and strength that are not equal, and they are overestimating themselves. However, this person is different from those I have ever met. Perhaps, he will be the biggest variable. He reminded me of Tang Muzhou in the fifth season. The league's major reshuffle in the fifth season was because of the appearance of Tang Muzhou, a genius poker player."
Liu Jingxu also experienced the fifth season and couldn't help but say: "You mean he wants to create a club like Tang Muzhou, become an original professional player, and play the game by himself?"
Zheng Feng nodded seriously: "I have a premonition that he will be the enemy of everyone on the field in the future. The professional league will likely have a second major reshuffle next season."
Gui Sirui and Liu Jingxu looked at each other and looked at each other.
The fat uncle just now looked kind and kind, but his firmness in speaking was not like a middle-aged fat uncle at all.
What kind of person is he?
The author has something to say:
Confirm that Pipizhe will create his own club:)
This book is quite large, so don’t subjectively judge the protagonist’s gold finger [Invincible]. In fact, there are so many good cards in other clubs in the league that are countless. The key is... I haven’t written about the game yet, nor have other masters’ decks written about them.
Lao Zheng said it very clearly. Uncle Fat just seized the opportunity of the instant death card and won a wave of presence. He was still very weak in designing the entire deck. He still needed to grow, and he would gradually become stronger!
