The Divine Genius’s Game Broadcasting Chapter 313

Episode 313 – First come first served? First come first served! (1)

Late afternoon, Fuzzy Day fan cafe.

As it is a place where all three streamers' fans gather, it is usually a place with a lot of users.

But today the number of connected users was particularly high.

[Connected Members – 10,458]

A whopping 10,000 people were residing in the cafe.

[Ah! Why aren't you letting me get off work?]

[There are a lot of people at the cafe, really lol]

[Really lol, isn't that the number of people on the broadcast?]

[If you're a salaryman, this is a good recommendation lol]

[What kind of den of thieves is this? LOL]

[5252 Won't you call me a thief?]

People were killing time by having pointless conversations. But they weren't there just to kill time.

[Oh lol there's 10 minutes left]

[The first goods are sooo …

[Please black company post-it…!]

[I'm the only one who grips with the sword ㅋㅋㅋ]

[No;; That's too minor]

This was because the deadline for voting for Lee Kyung-bok's goods was approaching.

Once voting closes, the results will be announced and you will be able to see which goods will be released in the first round.

And finally, the moment voting closed, comments on the voting notice began to multiply in an instant.

[-What is the ratio of the Gemalcon figure?]

[-Ah haha this is an invincible ticket!]

[-I expected a hoodie too lol]

[-not;;; why is the voter turnout for the Gemalcon ball cap like this?]

[-OTP Even a tumbler and a mug lol]

[-What is the genome hit rate?]

[- Are you all just playing around with the entrance to the train? LOL!]

[-But it doesn't matter lol]

[-Right lol I'm going to buy them all anyway]

It didn't matter if the goods they voted for weren't on the first release list. Rather than feeling regretful, fans were relieved that it had finally been confirmed.

[-So when are you selling it? LOL]

[-There is no time to hesitate!]

[-But won't you take my order next week?]

[-I feel dizzy!]

All that remained was the opening date. Everyone was trying to guess when that would be.

[<Goods> Perfect Goods sales have started.]

The cafe suddenly went quiet after a notice was posted not long after.

As soon as they saw the title, everyone logged onto the shop fandom.

It was a while later that the post came up again.

[No;;; What is the price of the Gemalcon figure?]

[Huh!? Isn't 200,000 won too much?!]

[Wow lol I was about to open run but I came back right away lol]

[Really ㅋㅋ I thought it would sell out in an instant so I even registered my card]

[For now, I just put the hoodie and tumbler in the cart…]

The atmosphere in the cafe suddenly became gloomy. Although I had great affection for Lee Kyung-bok, 200,000 won was not a price I could easily afford.

But the atmosphere changed with one post.

[Purchase Verification) Oh!? I'm a workaholic?]

It was a post by a fan verifying their success in purchasing a figure. Comments were quickly posted on the post.

[-Wow lol I'm buying this right now]

[-As expected, everyone except me is a pervert!]

[-If you don't mind, could you buy me an ice cream?]

[-This is why you have to earn a lot of moneyㅠㅠ]

Envious and self-deprecating comments.

The writer left only one line in the comment.

[-The brave get the goods]

What on earth does this mean? Is this an attempt to tease fans who couldn't buy it?

It was at that moment that some people were about to feel sorry for him.

[Purchase Verification) Wow lol, Godple is really a genius]

[Purchase Verification] Can I verify my status as a true fan with this?]

[Purchase Verification) Passing Point Chin-up!]

Other fans also felt something strange when they saw the certification post that followed. And soon, fans who checked the post learned the whole story.

[-90% discount!? Then it's 20,000 won?]

[-Oh my gosh lol What the heck is Doonoper!]

[-Miss lol I should have just killed it!]

In the case of the Gemalcon figure, when you decide to purchase, a pop-up appears informing you about the discount.

The content was that if you solve a quiz related to Lee Kyung-bok and get a score of 85 or higher, you will be given a 90% discount code.

[-I thought it was strange that it wasn't sold out even though resellers were targeting it. LOL]

[-On the first day, the real fans got the chance first ㅋㅋㅋ]

[-Who is it? Who suspected Gotple?]

[-???: Since ancient times, faith has been…!]

[-???: Let's just keep going like this!]

[-Ah lol reseller shacks are going to be destroyed like dogs]

The atmosphere in the stagnant cafe suddenly became urgent as if it had never been like that before.

It was thanks to the confidence that all the goods would return to the hands of the fans.

* * *

Around the same time, in an officetel.

Various famous brand shoe boxes, free gift figures provided by fast food restaurants as part of collaboration events, and block toys that are rumored to be in short supply, etc.

A man sat in front of a computer next to a pile of boxes without any uniformity.

“Okay… the macros are done…”

He chuckled and scanned his internet windows. There were a whopping 50 of them, all of which were connected to Shopfandom.

'Now all we have to do is come up and it's over.'

He was a reseller who went by the nickname 'Conscientious Trader'.

Depending on the macro settings, the moment Purple's items are registered in Shop Fandom, the purchase will proceed automatically.

[>Have you finished setting up the room?]

[>I'm going to try to get 20 this time]

[>Will this make money?]

A chat notification popped up on one side of the monitor. The conscientious merchant immediately opened the chat room and tapped the keyboard.

[>Guys, don't you trust me?]

[>I really live off trust]

[>I heard this is going to be a huge hit?]

Not only did he resell items, he also received money from other resellers in the name of providing information and even ran a membership group chat room.

[>No, of course I believe you, sir.]

[> Seriously lol how much have we benefited from so far]

[>I trusted the host and borrowed 30 accounts haha]

[>Purple? This is my first time hearing about it, but I wonder if it really makes money;;]

Resellers paid money to rent names and accounts held by viral marketing companies.

The method was to use the accounts acquired in this way to purchase limited edition items from various shopping malls using macro programs.

A 'conscientious agent' also acts as a broker, connecting marketers and resellers.

[>(photo)]

[>Do you need to do this again to believe me?]

[>I'm going to rotate 50 accounts this time ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[>Don't you know what Purple Coin is?]

[>They say that people who watch Inbang these days are going crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[>If you upload this, it will definitely sellㅋㅋㅋ]

He captured the screen he was preparing with the account he had rented and uploaded it to the group chat. This was because the members' trust would increase if they knew he was participating.

[>Wow lol, the distribution is really different]

[>Ah… Do I need to rent more accounts?]

[>You earn as much as you invest, lol]

[>But if I buy too much, won't I get cursed at?]

The conscientious merchant saw the message and laughed.

“Oh my, you little cowards.”

He exhaled lightly from his e-cigarette and typed again on his keyboard.

[>The ones who curse at us are weird]

[>They say reselling and such, but isn't this all the natural course of capitalism?]

[>No, think about it. There are a lot of people who can't get limited editions even if they have money, right?]

[>It is right that the benefit goes to those who pay more.]

[>Thanks to our efforts, the market is running smoothly.]

[>We only take a small fee in the process]

Besides simply reselling, the members-only group chats were his main source of income. He had to give them a reason to keep getting paid.

[>Ah haha, as expected, you are the room leader]

[>You are so good at the market economy that you make a lot of money, lol]

[>I believed the manager and rented 30 more!]

The conscientious merchant laughed at their answers.

“Ah, the commission is sweet.”

The more accounts you lend, the more commission you earn as a broker. It was when he was intoxicated and took another puff of cigarette smoke.

A series of beeping sounds followed, and an error message covered the monitor.

“Coolook, what is this?”

He quickly surveyed the situation with a cough. Soon, a deep wrinkle formed between his eyebrows.

[<Do You Know Purple?>]

[How much do you know about purple? Answer the quiz correctly and don't miss the chance to get a 90% discount!]

Unlike other shopping malls, a pop-up message appeared.

“No, 90%?”

It wasn't a number that I could just ignore and live with. Below it were test papers that I had only seen in my school days.

[1. How many months has Purple been on the air?]

[2. What was the first game Purple played?]

[3. What is Purple’s favorite sport?]

[4. What was the name of the first media outlet to interview Purple?]

[5. What is the name of the crew Purple is currently a part of and the title of the first game merge?]

…

The conscientious seller clenched his teeth as he was asked a series of questions.

“What the fu*k, what the hell is this?!”

It wasn't something that could be dealt with by immediately modifying the macro program. While he was swearing, a group chat notification popped up.

[>What the f*ck is this?]

[>Do you guys also get a discount pop-up?]

[>Master? What should I do with this!?]

[>Where can I find the answer????]

[>What the f*ck, is there anyone who can solve this?]

[>Crazy! You're giving me stock right now!]

The situation was no different for other resellers. If things continued like this, no one would be able to secure the product.

'Let's calm down. I'll get the answer later and fix the macro…'

Today wasn't the only day.

I know there are some complaints from members, but wouldn't it be okay to postpone it for a day or so?

But even that didn't work out.

[*This quiz is updated daily.]

[*Items in this quiz are presented randomly.]

[*The discount code is valid for 1 day.]

The conscientious merchant's eyes wavered at the instructions at the bottom.

“fu*k… Who, who would do something like this…”

His hair turned white.

In the meantime, notifications piled up in the group chat.

[>Master? Master!?]

[>If you don't know about purple, you can't buy it at all?]

[>Ah, I paid all the account rental fees]

[>Master? Can I get a refund for this?]

[>Why is there no answer, s**t]

[>You didn't run away with the money, did you?]

When he didn't respond, the mood in the group chat quickly became tense.

[>Don't even think about running away with the money]

[>Hey, the dine-and-dash went a bit too far.]

[>You all are dumb]

[>Is there still money left in the account I deposited to you?]

[>Getting your home address is not a big deal.]

[>Take responsibility when you say nice things]

[>No;; Why are you so scary]

[>Master? Say something!]

The conscientious trader's legs trembled. He bit his lips so hard that he could taste the metal, but he didn't care.

'Crazy, if I refund these kids I'll have to cough up all my commission.'

A foreign language.

No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't see any way out.

Soon he made up his mind.

[>Everyone, what is the purpose of this group chat?]

52%

[>This is information provision. Information provision]

[>Investment is originally a personal choice]

It was impossible to maintain the group chat after losing trust. He took off the mask he had been wearing until now.

[>Master?]

[>Personal choice?]

[>Everyone, what is the purpose of this group chat?]

[>This is information provision. Information provision]

[>Investment is originally a personal choice]

It was impossible to maintain the group chat after losing trust. He took off the mask he had been wearing until now.

[>You're behind]

[>What the hell, you're selling your conscience to be a conscientious trader?]

The answer that came back was, of course, sharp. But the conscientious dealer had already thrown the dice.

[>I think we've reached this point]

[>Good luck]

He left the group chat and immediately blocked all calls.

But instead, the anxiety grew.

'You must be lying. You must have just thought about it.'

I tried to act calm, but I couldn't fool myself.

What if they really track you down? How will you recover the money you invested in this private investment? You thought it would definitely succeed, so you rented it out for a long time?

My head was filled with all sorts of worries. But the bottom line was only one thing.

“I’m screwed…”

If you touch it for no reason, you will end up with nothing but a complete loss.

* * *

Early evening, Metagamer headquarters.

"Thank you for your effort!"

“Thank you for your hard work!”

While all the other employees were leaving work, Shin Hye-rim stayed at her desk.

Her boss, the team leader, glanced at Shin Hye-rim as he was finishing tidying up the place.

'I don't know if it's okay.'

I said I was fine, but I was worried that I might feel left out if everyone left work and I was left alone.

The team leader, who approached to offer a word of encouragement, soon blinked.

'Why is he like this?'

Wasn't Shin Hye-rim laughing alone while looking at the monitor? The team leader asked her with a slight cough.

“Ahem, I guess something good is going to happen?”

“Huh? Team leader? You didn’t get off work?”

“I was just about to leave. But what are you laughing at?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Shin Hye-rim pushed her chair back as if it was no big deal.

“I was browsing the community to see what was going on with Purple. Would you like to take a look?”

The team leader glanced at the monitor she was looking at.

[What kind of goods do you sell like this?]

It was an article that stood out from the very beginning, with its title.

[I'm writing this because I really don't understand.

Why do I have to solve so many quizzes just to buy one item?

Is this how you treat your fans?

And whose dog's name is 200,000 won?

Shouldn't the price be determined according to the quality?

Is business a joke, whether for the seller or the platform?

No matter how popular it is, I don't think it's right to force it like this.

Please take quick action.]

It was a post on Purple's inquiry board, which had opened a store in Shop Fandom.

Someone was capturing the post and spreading it around the community.

“The comments are really funny.”

What made Shin Hye-rim laugh was not the post itself, but people's reactions.

[- Since these are goods made for fans, I'm verifying my fandom, so is there a problem?]

[-If I were Korean, I wouldn't have any complaints lol]

[-Anyone can tell that it's a do-reum?]

[-Yeah~ This is no joke~ It's already sold out~]

[-Ah lol if you ask me, I'll give you 200,000 won]

[-Even if I have to pay 200,000 won to resell it, I'm still a true fan ㅋㅋㅋㅋ]

[-Even if it's a resale, if you solve all the quizzes and buy it, I'll acknowledge it ㅋㅋㅋ]

[-It's not first-come-first-served, it's fan-first-served, so Imari ㅋㅋㅋ]

The comments were full of ridicule and no sympathy. The team leader soon realized the situation and burst into laughter.

“No matter what Purple does, it always creates an issue.”

“Really. No, how did you come up with this idea? Isn’t Purple a real genius?”

The team leader shook off his worries as he looked at Shin Hye-rim in admiration.

“Did reporter Shin buy some goods too?”

“Oh, I did buy it.”

“That’s a bit of an ambiguous answer.”

“That’s… I couldn’t buy one.”

Shin Hye-rim answered with an awkward smile. The team leader didn’t ask any more questions. He left after saying goodbye to her and saying, “Thank you for your hard work.”

Once she was completely alone, she let out a short sigh.

“Hey, I just closed my eyes and screamed.”

She was one of the fans who joined the opening run when the store opened. However, she too was overwhelmed by the price of 200,000 won before she could even look into it.

'I'm really embarrassed to call myself a fan.'

After comparing the value of 200,000 won with the prices of other goods, she decided that it would be better to buy all the hoodies in different colors and even buy the tumbler and mug instead of just one figure.

After finishing my order, I went back to work and checked the fan cafe again and found out the truth.

'Hey, I wanted to verify my purchase too.'

Although I took on the challenge late, the figure's daily sales had already sold out.

But she was not discouraged.

'I'm definitely going to buy it this time.'

As soon as midnight passes, the daily sales figures are updated.

At that time, the qualification exam was held again, and all fans had to do was pass what they called the 'Perfect Mock Exam'.

'If not me, who will pass?'

With pride as a Purple specialist reporter, she made up her mind.
