Episode 441 – Coming Soon (1)
After finishing the announcement, Lee Kyung-bok started playing the game in earnest.
“Well, last time we unlocked the management mode.”
Lee Kyung-bok briefly commented while looking at the unfolding bird's-eye view. The viewers immediately responded.
-Perfect! Perfect! Perfect!
-Let's go with the expansionist moves of the Purple Office!
-Imari, you've gone beyond being a perfect president to becoming a perfect chairman.
-Please open the dizziness point quickly! I'm going to get a second certificate!
As the chat window filled with playful urging, Lee Kyung-bok turned his eyes with a smile.
“No, first we need to find out what kind of system it is.”
He briefly glanced at the new menu. Each menu item had a short tooltip for easy understanding.
"Oh, I see. In management mode, it goes by the day. So, when I press End Work…"
He pressed the button with the crescent moon icon on it.
[Management Report]
[Purple Office (Main Branch)]
[>Store manager 'Purple's' average customer satisfaction is '100%'.]
[>The average customer satisfaction level of employees 'GENOME' is '71%'.]
[>Employee 'Gom PD' processed a total of '184' internet orders.]
⋯
As the days passed, a report-style document appeared before my eyes.
"Oh, in management mode, the situation is displayed so simply? And profits come in right away."
-5252, is management also a perfect shortcut? LOL!
-Oh my gosh lol. What made this guy 100% satisfied?
-This is based on the operation mode play, so lol
-The branch manager surprisingly did well?
-Oh my gosh lol It's a local gift shop, but surprisingly there are a lot of online orders lol
Lee Kyung-bok checked the details and nodded.
"Oh, it provides various statistics, and my skill experience and my employees' experience are all calculated. This will speed up the game, right?"
-If it's a franchise, this is right lol
-Really ㅋㅋ If you do all the operations one by one, when will you grow the franchise?
-It takes several months to grow a franchise, no matter how good the game is lol
-Operation mode is the experience element, and management mode is the main topic. Imariya
Lee Kyung-bok also actively sympathized with the viewers' reactions.
"That's true. Of course, some people prefer to run their own business, but I think that's a personal choice. Let's take a closer look and get started!"
Lee Kyung-bok looked at other menus and waited a few more days to see if there were any changes.
“First of all, the most important profit is that, although there is some variation, it is not much different from the amount earned in operating mode.”
-When operating, it is not the daily profit, but the average profit.
-Oh my gosh lol but why is this guy's average so high lol
-In fact, it's not the average, but the upper limit of profit?
-Purple Coin hits its daily limit, isn't that common sense?
-It was just a perfect operation?
Lee Kyung-bok burst into laughter at the viewers' admiration. He soon secured the funds by passing the deadline several more times.
"Okay, now we've raised enough money to purchase the land where Bapsae Company used to be. Now, let's start building."
He touched the land marked on the bird's-eye view. He selected "Buy" and "Beginning Construction on Store No. 2," and a message appeared.
[Would you like to maintain the interior style of Purple Office 'Branch 2'?]
"Oh? Thank goodness you're not starting from scratch with the interior. I guess you can replicate the interior of the main branch."
-Haha, it's definitely convenient.
-We provide the same service, because it's a franchise (nods)
-But in reality, there are a lot of differences between each branch, lol.
-Really ㅋㅋ Especially in restaurants, the difference is huge ㅋㅋㅋ
-Ah haha there are no dots in the game!
As construction began, a waiting period appeared. He could have immediately moved on, but Lee Kyung-bok opened his contact information.
"Now, I need to hire staff for Branch 2. And not just any staff, but a branch manager as well."
We needed to hire someone to take charge of the second branch. While contacting Lorelai about this, several viewers offered their opinions.
-Hyung? Can't you just leave it to PD Gom?
-Really lol I think he'd like it if you promoted him to store manager
-Should we just hire one more employee for the second floor?
-Oh my gosh lol Then who will be in charge of online shopping?
-Can't we do it together?
-omg
-If you include online sales in store management, it'll be a total mess lol
-Black company shareholder behavior lol
-And here comes the gust of wind?
Other viewers burst into laughter. Lee Kyung-bok also agreed with the majority opinion.
“No, if there is a lot of work, it is right to hire more people.”
-As work increases, so do the employees. That's common sense, right?

-What is it;;; Why is it really common sense!?
-???: Wouldn't it be okay to rotate the existing employees in three shifts?
-???: You're saying I have to pay more because I'm working overtime? What do you mean?
-???: King Gwalgat Geumje is strong^^
-Huh? This isn't about the game?
-Okay, now which one is perfect common sense?
-This is a real 'black' comedy lol
Lee Kyung-bok checked the list of candidates. Soon, viewers all pointed to one person.
-????
-Haha …
-Immediate Hiring
-You're a special employee, and you're already done?
-It seems like your leadership level has gone up while skipping dates?
-What the heckㅋㅋㅋ That's rightㅋㅋㅋ
-Peritswww Not only the profit, but also the experience points have reached the upper limitwww
-Are you going to cut your hair short whenever you get a chance?
Lee Kyung-bok laughed at the reaction and adopted the character of Ppago.
"As you all know, Perpago is actually in charge of managing my fan page and fan cafe bulletin board. I think he'll be more than enough to take over as branch manager of the second branch."
-Is there any foreigner who doesn't know about the spread of efficiency?
-Pupago is good at it lol
-Imariya's skills in throwing out the trash during the early days of Godfull broadcasting were top-notch.
– Seriously lol I thought you were a career employee lol
-Was it even real that it was spread here? LOL
-Is this what big data management is?
Lee Kyung-bok even hired more staff and pushed the deadline forward.
[Purple Office's 'Branch 2' is ready!]
When the construction period was over, a neat building was erected on what was previously an empty lot.
-WA! Branch 2!
-Finally, it looks like a franchise, right?
-Perfect Chairman's ascension ㅎㄷㄷ
-Oh my gosh lol It's not even real but I'm kind of happy lol
-If it's a real purple office, you can tap dance 24 hours a day with just the first branch lol
-Let's go to the profit paradise~
To the cheers of the viewers, Lee Kyung-bok immediately deployed the staff he had hired.
"Okay, the second Purple Office! Open for business!"
Lee Gyeong-bok began operating the second branch with a joyful voice.
* * *
Purple Office 2nd branch.
Lee Kyung-bok entered operational mode and assessed the situation.
“Okay, let’s see if Purpago is good at his job.”
-The boss came secretly lol
– Black corporate food inspection ㅎㄷㄷ
-Perfect surprise checkpoint is so scary?
-There are a lot of customers at branch 2 too lol
Lee Kyung-bok mingled with the crowd of customers and glanced at the cash register.
“For payment and point accumulation, exchanges and refunds, please visit us within one week with your receipt.”
Purpago, an employee with a chrome body humanoid skin, was working with quick hands.
He was not only good at serving customers, but also at packaging.
-Oh my gosh, you really work like a machine.
-I thought it was repeating because the transmission lag happened for a moment lol
-Guests are being pushed out like a conveyor belt?
-Isn't this the Purple Factory? Lol!
-Idiot! A fool who only cares about efficiency!
Lee Kyung-bok smiled playfully at him and commented.
“The persimmons here are calm. The real persimmons are a bit noisy… Ahem, let’s go to the second floor too.”
-Another perfidious idiot?
-Hyung? I can see the corners of your lips going up!
-???: If only he wasn't the president!
-Ah haha, the real Puppago is equipped with all the emotional modules
-Wasn't Purpago a vocaloid?
-omg
-What the heck ㅋㅋ Aerial karaoke ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
While the viewers were also teasing him, Lee Kyung-bok finished checking the second floor.
“Well, the interns are working hard too.”
The employee at Branch 2 was named "SkullKim." Perhaps envious of Lee Kyung-bok's ability to name his employees after their genomes, he mentioned on his broadcast that SkullKim and Park Ja-cho should also use their names if needed.
-King Ji does a better job than his boss lol
-That's because it's a high-grade (nods)
-Ah haha, where does it compare with the normal grade!
-Interns are better than employees. Isn't that common sense in black companies?
-This was also a historical fact?
-Now, we just need to appoint Ikle Kyung as the store manager at branch 3 and hire Park Ja-cho as an employee. LOL
Lee Kyung-bok smiled at the viewers' reactions and returned to business mode.
“Okay, since the second branch is going well, let’s reschedule the date…”
He was about to push back the deadline to raise funds again, but he soon stopped.
'Is there something⋯?'
He twiddled his fingers, feeling a subtle sense of foreboding. Then, following his instincts, he chose the menu.
"⋯Before I move on, I'll take some security precautions. Now, I'm managing the business rather than running it myself, and we even have a second branch."
He chose Lorelai's contact information. When Lee Kyung-bok ordered CCTV and security equipment, viewers agreed.
-Oh lol I never thought about it
-Really ㅋㅋ I only see the ones run by Godple ㅋㅋㅋ
-The other employees are not god-like, Imari.
-Really lol Another crazy guy like Matthew Shack could appear again
-I need to invest in this lol
Only after completing the installation of security equipment along with the order did Lee Kyung-bok turn in the date.
[Management Report]
[Purple Office (Branch 2)]
[>Store manager 'Pupago's' customer satisfaction rating is an average of '94%'.]
[>Employee 'SkullKim's' average customer satisfaction is '81%'.]
[>The thief has been found! However, 'Pupago' has blocked the exit with a remote device.]
[>The guest's property was damaged! However, 'SkullKim' received compensation based on CCTV evidence.]
⋯
The report that came back also included events that occurred differently from those at the main branch.
“Oh, if there’s a problem, you report it again.”
-Wow lol, look at that exquisite timing.
-Did you do well buying security equipment?
-You couldn't even do a thief's pansrun?
-What the heck lol On the second floor, you touched the product and stuck your feet out?
-Not only criminals but also regular customers lol
-Isn't it essentially the same thing?
-Really ㅋㅋ Doing something that is not true is no different from a crime ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Perfect management, huh?
-Then, will the third branch be open soon?
Viewers also read the report together and were satisfied.
"You've read everything, right? Then let's take a look at the conditions for the third branch expansion."
Lee Kyung-bok waited a moment so that the viewers could read it, and then put the report away.
Next, we found the candidate site for the third store marked on the bird's eye view.
“Ah, the first and second branches were in the suburbs, but this time it’s a bit further into the city.”
Branch 3 was beyond the marked boundary line marking the area. So, let's touch the glowing spot.
[We lack the brand awareness needed to expand in that region!]
[Current brand awareness – 0.9%]
[Required brand awareness – 10%]
A warning message in red letters appeared.
“Oh, there are prerequisites for advancing into other regions.”
-It seems like a stage-like concept?
-Huh? Purple Office recognition isn't even 1%?
-What is it? Why is there no reality check here!?
-Ah haha that's because it's not a Korean game haha
-Why isn't the Perfect Common Sense DLC coming out? LOL
Lee Kyung-bok, as well as the viewers, were able to immediately understand the system.
"But where did that 0.9% come from? Oh, maybe because of online sales?"
Lee Gyeong-bok was puzzled, but then he found the answer himself and looked into other areas.
“Oh, that’s right. It’s only a little bit, but I’ve gained some recognition.”
-PD Gom, you worked hard, Imari
-Looking at it, the further you go into the city, the higher the requirements become hahaha
-Since our goal is to open a fourth store, we should probably invest in marketing in advance, right?
-No, it would be better to first lay the foundation by expanding the 1st and 2nd units that are currently being built.
Marketing is impossible without bullets, Imari.
-How about taking out a loan first?
-Right, lol. Originally, all businesses were run with loans. lol
-Who pays the interest?
-If you're scared of interest, how can you run a business?
Viewers who understood the situation poured out their opinions in the chatroom. Some even expressed doubt about the opinions themselves.
-If you just keep skipping, you'll accumulate money, right?
-Money can be copied! (It's true)
-Really lol If you save up money and do marketing, it will probably break through quickly
-5252, Is it true that the standards for making the game difficult for the listeners have become the standard? Lol!
-The next one after Agames lol
-That was science?!
"Why choose the hard way when there's an easy way to make money?" Lee Kyung-bok answered with a smile.
"No, the game wasn't made that easily. Some of you may have missed this, so I'll show you again."
Lee Kyung-bok opened the statistics menu.
Various graphs showed an upward trend. Operating income was rising sharply, but so were expenses.
"As you can see, all costs increase over time. I think they've also incorporated a concept like inflation. So, if you skip over reinvestment or growth, your profits will actually decrease."
-Price increases are scary lol
-You designed the game so that I can't eat it?
-It was a kind of realistic verification, Imariya.
-What kind of reality check is this? lol Labor costs are rising
-Right? It's true that everything goes up except my salary, right?
-Rising labor costs? Whose paychecks are going up?
-???: This year, the company is having a hard time⋯
-Black Company Special) The company is struggling, but the president's car has changed.
Viewers chatted playfully, but soon turned envious.
-But don't the people who work with this guy really see their wages go up?
-If the incentive option is basic, it will become more and more expensive lol
-Really lol and since everyone does their job well, it's a huge advantage for Godple too?
– Isn't this essentially a salary negotiation with yourself? LOL
-When a company does well, both the CEO and the employees benefit. That's common sense, right?
-Purple Coin Synergy ㅁㅊㄷㅁㅊㅇ
-Please reflect perfect common sense reality ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Lee Kyung-bok smiled at that reaction. But he couldn't let the conversation continue on this topic.
"Well, to sum it up, we need to make our brand known to people in other regions. But no matter what we advertise, it's hard to attract their attention. So, how about something like this?"
As he turned his attention, a question mark appeared in the chat window. Instead of answering immediately, Lee Kyung-bok opened his contact information.
But the target was not the marketing expert, Vincent.
Oh, it's Mr. Purple. What's wrong?
The opponent was none other than the president of the merchants' association, Ethan.
"Oh, Mr. Chairman. You mentioned the local festival last time, didn't you? Festival week is just around the corner."
Oh, right. Are you planning on attending Purple Office this time?
In that conversation, viewers realized what option he had chosen.
-Oh lol, so people from other regions come?
-But aren't local festivals a bit weak?
-Really lol, when you actually go there, there's nothing special.
-I don't know how efficient this will be.
-Hurry up and spread it!
But viewers were indifferent. They didn't know for sure, but they didn't expect much of an effect.
But Lee Gyeong-bok was confident.
"Yes, I'd like to participate. But I'd like to invest more than just participate."
<Investment? Of course, if you do so, the Chamber of Commerce has no reason to refuse, but to what extent?>
Lee Kyung-bok lightly ran his finger over the investment ratio bar that appeared before his eyes.
“How about this much?”
But the amount was not light at all.
<⋯No, are you serious!?>
-????????
-What? What on earth are you implying?
– Isn't this the level where everything except operating expenses is being spent?
-Oh my gosh lol If you have that money, just use it for marketing lol
-Agems' chronic disease again?!
-What is that Q-dari action? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-???: I have a disease that makes it impossible for me to resist donations.
-This time, it became that Siggus!?
Ethan, as well as the viewers, were shocked by the amount.
“Yes, instead⋯”
But Lee Gyeong-bok had a plan.
“I will decide the theme for this festival.”
* * *
The in-game days passed and it was finally festival week. With that, the game screen transitioned, revealing the festival location.
-Wowㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
-Wow haha this is a festival!
-???: The whole world is purple!
-If you just decorate it in purple, it will easily surpass the level of a neighborhood party?
Amidst the sunny weather and the idyllic scenery characteristic of the suburbs, stalls with purple themes took up residence everywhere.
At each stall, members of the merchants' association were selling goods to tourists.
But there was something else that was important.
-Pumusae holder on the pumusae bread lol
-I saw you guys having fun holding the Permusae balloons lol
-What is it? I like it too!
-It's dangerous outside the blankets! It's dangerous!
The cafe served bread baked in the shape of a pomegranate and drinks in holders with pomegranate designs. Families of tourists were jumping around holding purple balloons with pomegranate designs.
-It definitely feels different since we've unified the uniforms.
-How is this a local festival?
-Isn't this essentially a Purple Office event?
-Really ㅋㅋ I see that the perfect hoodie has infiltrated clothing stores too ㅋㅋ
-Black corporate festival hijacking ㅎㄷㄷ
In addition, all participating merchants and staff members were wearing Gemalcon embroidered shirts as their uniform.
Not only that, but each stall featured perfect goods like the Perfect Hoodie, OTP Tumbler, and Mug. These weren't for sale, but were intended for the participants' own use.
-You really have to know Lee Hyung Think Big!
-Oh my gosh lol Who would open a festival with their own goods lol
-This was possible because it was a festival for the kingfishers ㅋㅋㅋ
-You have to be at least as cute as Permuse to go lol
-Really lol If you open a festival with ugly goods, who would go?
-No lol Why are you hitting the branch manager when he's working hard lol
-If there is Jeongsimdang in Daejeon, there is Permusae in Pte. Imari.
-It's possible to have a local festival, lol
Lee Kyung-bok was whining at the flood of praise in the chat window.
"Oh, as a father of a pervert, I can't stand this. Shouldn't we spread the word about our cute pervert?"
-Idiot! Idiot who only knows how to do things!
-Is this the perfect dad?
-Dad Special) I can't stand bragging about my children.
-Ah haha, but it’s not like you’re losing anything!
-You'll recover your costs in no time lol
Among the many street vendors, there was a long line of people in front of Purple Office.
The reason was simple.
-Marketing is marketing, but look at the sales performance going up, lol
-How can you resist buying souvenirs at the festival?
-It was all Perfect Boss's calculations, Imari.
When it comes to festivals, there are souvenirs.
When it comes to souvenirs, it's the gift shop.
The Purple Office was literally booming.
