Chapter Twenty-Four Member Services

  Zhang Heng sat beside the small harbor on Zhangjia Island, holding a fishing rod in his hand, watching Zhao Xue walk by with her sleeves rolled up, and couldn't help but chuckle. He smiled curiously and asked: "What's wrong? Your mouth is pouting so high, who made you angry?" Now, he no longer spends all day staring at the computer screen.

  If there's anything going on, Ah Diao will notify him through his mobile phone. Anyway, it's already the 3G era now.

  "It's still not that Song Gang, just now he actually used a commanding tone to let me go get clothes for him. Hmph, doesn't he even think about it, if I hadn't discovered his secret, he would have been dead and thrown into the sea as fish food by now! Truly, no gratitude at all!"

  Zhao Xue sat down beside Zhang Heng with an unhappy face and said in a huff.

  Zhang Heng sighed and shook his head, this little girl actually had such a temper.

  "You're still smiling!" Zhao Xue raised her small fist and gave him a punch on the shoulder. Zhang Heng turned his head towards the direction of the villa, took a glance, and that man called 'Song Gang' had already come out and was walking towards them!

  Looking at Zhao Xue sitting in the arms of a strange man, Song Gang felt a slight discomfort in his heart.

  "Who is he?"

  Song Gang's tone of inquiry obviously made Zhao Xue unexpected, stunned for a moment, raised her hand to hug Zhang Heng's neck, narrowed her eyes, and smiled sweetly, saying in a soft voice: "He is Master Heng, your future boss, my current boyfriend, and future husband, hehe, what do you think?"

  Zhang Heng smiled and shook his head, patted Xiaoyu's buttocks, and from the other person's tone, it was not difficult to hear that this man had a good impression of Zhao Xue in his heart. Zhao Xue said with this tone, wasn't she intentionally trying to provoke trouble?

  "Oh no, you naughty boy, touching someone's butt again!"

  Song Gang stood there, his face calm once again, looking at the two who were quarreling and flirting, and said softly: "Thank you both for saving me!"

  Zhang Heng hadn't spoken yet, when Zhao Xue again took the lead and continued, laughing: "A life-saving favor, with no way to repay, can only be repaid with one's body, hehe, unfortunately this young lady isn't very interested in you. How about this, it just so happens that I'm short a follower, from now on you'll follow me around!"

  Song Gang now indeed has nowhere to go, this time he provoked a powerful enemy, basically the entire Southeast Asia region, there is no place for him to hide, as long as he appears in any place in Southeast Asia, there is a 100% chance of being hunted and killed. Staying on this small isolated island temporarily, it's not a bad thing for him!

  "What's wrong, don't you want to?" Zhao Xue looked at Song Gang standing there silently, rolled her eyes and pouted again!

  Song Gang said expressionlessly: "The enemy I've provoked this time has a lot of power, if I don't leave, it will bring trouble to both of you!"

  "Trouble?" Zhao Xue disdainfully curled her lip: "We're not afraid of trouble, don't worry, just follow us and blend in well, later this young lady will take care of you!"

  What kind of power is this, the Qiu family and Zhao Xue are all insignificant to her, she can't beat them, but doesn't she have a man of her own standing behind her?

  "If you have nowhere to go, you can stay on Zhangjia Island for a while. Nobody should be able to find this place!" Zhang Heng said slowly. Just then, there was a tug on the line, and a palm-sized sea bass was pulled out of the water, flapping on the shore. "There's fish!" Zhao Xue jumped up from Zhang Heng's arms and ran over excitedly!

  Zhang Heng couldn't help but smile, turning his head to carefully examine Song Gang's eyes. His features were quite handsome, with a strong nose and large eyes, and when paired with that ancient bronze-colored skin, it was really cool!

  "My name is Zhang Heng!"

  Song Gang suddenly felt a chill behind his back, Zhang Heng was sitting there, smiling at him, but he had a feeling of being stared at by a poisonous snake, no matter how he hid, the other party had confidence, and suddenly struck out, killing himself with one blow. This Zhang Heng, a young man with a sunny smile, is very dangerous!

  Song Gang!

  "Not bad!" Zhang Heng smiled and nodded, turning his head back and throwing the fishing rod into the sea again!

  Zhao Xue walked around Song Gang with her hands behind her back, turned her eyes and giggled: "Looking at your stiff face, you've never smiled before, right? Now I'll give you a nickname, from now on you'll be called Hei Tie (Black Iron). After all, your skin is dark and you're so cold, haha, the nickname 'Hei Tie' really suits you!"

  After finishing, she ran to Zhang Heng's side, hugged his neck from behind, lifted her small legs and pressed down, laughing and saying: "Master Heng, do you think the nickname Snow gave him sounds good?"

  "Sounds good, sounds good, my little aunt, hurry up and come!" Zhang Heng bitterly smiled: "Look, the fish are all scared away by you!"

  "Is the fish important or is Xue'er important?" Zhao Xue pouted, not only didn't let go, but also hugged Zhang Heng's neck and shook it vigorously back and forth.

  There's a little girl making trouble here, Zhang Heng can't even think about catching fish, he puts away the fishing rod in his hand, stands up with Zhao Xue on his back, and says with a smile: "Of course our Snow is more important!"

  Laughing and looking at Song Gang standing not far away: "There are only the three of us on this island now, let's go find something to eat!"

  In a week, two more games were added to the new world, both of which were copied from popular online games at that time. This time it was done by Ah-Dai himself, without Zhang Heng's help. In the game hall, there were already seven large-scale online games, eighteen stand-alone small games and some card games, mahjong games.

  The game is temporarily completely free, except for the bar having items for sale, the new world also launched a series of membership services, Zhang Heng took a look and basically copied the Penguin Empire model. He didn't stop it either, letting Ah Diao do whatever he wanted. The new world x.1 version was released in nearly half a month's time.

  The total number of registered users worldwide has exceeded 100 million!

  Simultaneous online population: 60 million!

  Among them, 80% are mobile users!

  On smartphones and tablets, laptops and other devices, basically out of ten people, two have already installed the 'New World X.1' client!

  Within a week, member income brought in over 800 million RMB of pure income to 'Dream Technology'. The number of people who joined the 'New World' membership exceeded 80 million!

  According to Ah Diao's calculations, the number of members will double next month. Ten bucks a month is not considered extravagant for players from Europe, America, Japan and Korea.

  In addition, in just half a month, the total revenue of bars in the new world has exceeded $40 million, becoming the brightest income point under "Dream Technology"'s "New World", although half of this money needs to be shared with players inside the bar, but the profit is still over $20 million. At the same time, the bar in New Century also has the potential to become one of the world's largest social hubs.

  According to incomplete statistics, in the past half month, more than 11.8% of men who found romantic encounters at bars have chosen to top up 'World Coins', with 6% of male players making this choice.

  "In the bar, there is a Japanese player who has earned over $20,000 in just half a month. There are eight players worldwide who have earned over $10,000 and hundreds of players who have earned over $1,000!" Ah-Dai said with a smile.

  Zhang Heng nodded in satisfaction, indeed, in this world, it's easiest for men to make money.

  "Boss, I'm preparing to launch a 'star' level membership service in the bar recently." Ah-Dai reported a series of things he was going to do recently to Zhang Heng.

  With the 'New World' online service platform, Ah-Dai is now in his element and becoming increasingly shrewd. In the future, 'Dream Technology' will probably become Zhang Heng's most lucrative venture.

  "Uh, just take a look and you'll be fine!" Zhang Heng thought for a moment before saying: "Recently, I plan to return to Huaxia. Now that I have some money on hand, there are some things that need to be taken care of when I get back!"

  "Ah-Dai will keep in touch with the boss at all times!" Ah-Dai nodded. A company can't just have one person, the boss, and Dream Technology will become stronger and stronger in the future, so Zhang Heng also needs to go back and recruit more people!

  After a week, Song Gang's injuries had almost fully recovered. The more he got to know Zhang Heng and Zhao Xue over the past few days, the more anxious he felt!

  As for Zhang Heng, I have also begun to feel a kind of reverence from the bottom of my heart. As for Zhao Xue's affection, it has long been deeply buried in my heart and I dare not have any more wild thoughts!
