As Sarah Wood put it, people are selfish. You can gauge just how effective this cloud mist tea series is by looking at the rapidly increasing daily membership here. It’s only been a few days, and the number of members has already reached 567. Each new member represents at least several billions, or even tens of billions of Flame Nation coins’ worth of wealth.

This is just the beginning. Pretty soon, the minimum wealth requirement for joining will be set very high. Perhaps even a worth of 100 billion Flame Nation coins won’t be enough. Finn Lewis wondered if he should set a minimum asset value directly, like maybe 30 billion Federal coins? Or only those with assets worth 50 billion Federal coins should be invited?

As per Finn Lewis’ specific instructions to Olivia Thatcher, because the product is limited in quantity, it would naturally evoke a subtle approach among these wealthy folks. If there were enough for everyone, they wouldn’t mind bringing their business friends over – there’s enough to go around anyway.

This way, they can earn favors, but if such valuable goods, especially those with great health benefits, are limited! That changes everything! What if too many members join and there’s not enough for themselves? Every additional day they can use it is a blessing!

With this mindset, the Purple Crystal Card application wouldn’t be a problem at all. For those who have already applied, the card allows them to bring others along. So, any immediate family members can be admitted using the card.

In this mood, they will definitely work together to support the “Moon of West Lake”. Anyone wanting to put pressure here must first measure their ability against the collective power of these 567 members. United, they are not to be underestimated.

Once the messages are read, Finn Lewis noticed some people going over to Kay Lee to inquire about the situation. They weren’t dissatisfied – these people were already members.

After those inquiring had left, Finn Lewis returned to Kay Lee. As he approached, he saw her watching a film. He sat by her side, intrigued, and asked, “What are you watching?”

“It’s not a movie, it’s a comedic video from New World; all made by its players.” Kay Lee laughed as she explained.

“Oh?” Finn Lewis raised his eyebrows in surprise. He hadn’t noticed that it was a video made by players of New World. It seemed just like a movie. It seems that the game engine of New World had indeed revealed some of its potency.

“Is it good? Let me see.” Finn Lewis got closer, curious.

“It’s quite good, although probably not the kind guys would be into.” Kay Lee laughed as she replied. 𝐟reew𝗲b𝐧𝚘𝐯𝐞l.c𝚘m

Finn Lewis began watching the video with Kay Lee. It wasn’t long, only about forty minutes; however, for a player-made video, especially one that required in-game filming, this was a considerable length. The creation could have taken these players hours or even more, including post-production audio match-up and the like.

After watching it, Finn Lewis honestly thought the story was decent. It was a love story, somewhat heartbreaking, set in a fantasy world. Overall, it had a solid storyline and plot, not too cliched. At least Finn Lewis had enjoyed it.

After watching, he thought there was potential in these videos. Pondering further, he asked, “Are there many of these videos?”

“There are plenty. Players of Old World had already been producing videos, though they were just game footage back then. Now it’s different. If the right shots are used, it’s no different from a real-world video. However, it does test the player’s ability to control the gaming character’s facial expressions.” Kay Lee explained while laughing. While doing so, she opened the video section for Finn Lewis to see the plethora of videos.

Seeing these videos, Finn Lewis got an idea, an idea to further boost the New World game’s popularity. After considering it for a moment, he immediately dialed Yuri Johnson on his phone.

In WY, the CEO is still Yuri Johnson. Finn Lewis wasn’t able to manage WY himself due to a lack of time. The call connected quickly, and Finn Lewis swiftly said, “Mr. Johnson, what do you think about holding a video competition in New World?”

“A video competition?” Yuri Johnson paused in confusion, not understanding what Finn Lewis was suggesting.

“Yeah, a video competition! I just watched some of our players’ self-made videos. They may not be perfect in terms of cinematography, but they’re not serious flaws either. The skills and effects in our game are very impressive and realistic- much more so than what many film companies produce!”

“Therefore, I think we should hold a video competition. The story should be at least twenty minutes long and no more than 120 minutes. There are no genre restrictions. Depending on the runtime, we can divide the competition into three categories: under 60 minutes, 60-90 minutes, and 90-120 minutes. We’ll award the winners. By evaluating the narrative and aesthetics of the videos, we can pick the top three from each category. The first prize winner gets one billion!” Finn Lewis spoke quickly.

Meanwhile, Sarah Wood’s mouth was agape. His ideas were coming at her fast and strong! And his prize money was ridiculous! Even a laptop for the first prize would be pretty lavish in other gaming competitions. But this guy is offering one billion!

A prodigal, if she’d ever seen one! And now he was solidifying his position as the ultimate prodigal!

“Second place gets fifty million, and third gets ten million. Those who place fourth to tenth will each receive 100k yuan.” Finn Lewis added quickly.

“Wait, Director Lewis, can you explain what the purpose of this is?” Yuri Johnson was feeling dizzy. Just like that, almost five billion was allocated. Yes, the game has made a lot of money for WY, but this is simply too extravagant!

“Nothing special; just a competition. Also, there’s another reward! That is, for any movie that wins first place and is longer than sixty minutes, we will assist with post-production and try to get it screened in theaters!” Finn Lewis dropped another bomb.

Screened! Yuri Johnson almost bit his tongue. A video from a game, and he’s considering screening it?! “Well, anyway, just promote it like this. As for whether it gets screened, that’s for us to decide. Also, during the promotion, remember to mention that, if released, they will receive part of the box office earnings! That’s your responsibility now!” Finn Lewis quickly added..
