Chapter 751: Chapter 234: Number One Player Dream Factory Opens! Disney Is Panicked! (Here Comes the Spice)_3

The head of Disney in the Huaxia Nation region couldn’t sit still any longer.

In the past, Disney had been incredibly proud within the Huaxia region, relying on their unique IP.

Building a theme park requires spending a lot of money, something that some domestic tycoons could easily afford.

But when it came to IP rights, it was a tough nut to crack.

As a result, no other theme park in the country could even hope to compete with Disney.

Now with the cost-effective Dream Factory, who would still go to Disney?

To prevent Dream Factory’s opening from stealing all of their traffic, Disney’s regional senior executives hastily convened an emergency meeting for discussion.

The result of the discussion was—pulling strings.

Disney’s park manager had a very good friend who just so happened to be the director of the Jianglin Cultural and Tourism Bureau.

All it would take was for him to issue some soft regulations.

For example, "Suspecting that the number one player is severely squeezing merchants to please tourists, it is suggested that the number one player raises the prices of goods in the park by another 100%."

Or, "To prevent the number one player from leading the theme park market economy astray and sparking malignant competition, VIP ticketing channels should be established," and so on with a series of nonsensical suggestions.

Once these soft policies were implemented,

Dream Factory would, at best, be on par with Disney, and certainly not have any advantage.

Originally, the Disney Huaxia region’s park manager was determined to prevail.

But after he shared the result with his good buddy, the bureau director,

the other party was so frightened that he hung up the phone immediately.

Leaving the park manager scratching his head in bewilderment, seated in his chair.

It wasn’t that... before, with Disney’s significant influence on display, anything they said would go.

How come their word carried no weight when it came to the number one player?

Of course, if the park manager had bothered to understand what the number one player meant for Jianglin, he wouldn’t have made that careless call.

We’ll set aside derived industries and the gaming economic effect for now.

Just the landmark building of Jianglin, the Jianglin Esports Stadium, alone could drive tens of millions of visitors a year, which demonstrates the number one player’s influence in Jianglin.

Let alone now, with the addition of Dream Factory, the internet was abuzz with topics on its opening day.

It was clear that Dream Factory could very likely become the second gold signboard of "Jianglin Cultural Tourism."

As long as the director of the Cultural and Tourism Bureau wasn’t foolish, it wouldn’t matter if they were good buddies.

Even if it were his own father calling today, he wouldn’t dare go against the number one player...

If the policy changed,

the Jianglin City Mayor might show up at his doorstep with a knife immediately.

After one failed plan, Disney’s park manager, He Tianrui, had no better solution and could only grimly state in their internal meeting,

"Don’t worry, the popularity of Dream Factory is just temporary. When it comes to enduring influence, we at Disney are impossible to lose to the number one player."

"We have all the facilities they have, and ours are on a larger scale. Next year, we’ll introduce some even more advanced facilities, and then the tourists will come back to us."

"We just have to wait and see."

Then,

just a few hours after his speech,

at two o’clock in the afternoon.

The number one player’s panoramic offline gaming experience pavilion—"Fade to Light"

officially opened and welcomed its first batch of visitors.

Happy New Year, everyone. I rushed back in a hurry. I caught a cold the day before yesterday, and today I’ve been rushing about. My body is still not feeling great. After resting a bit at home, I resumed rushing to finish my draft, and only now is it out. Please forgive me.

Currently, the plan is to update as much as possible in the second half of February, and then finish the book by the end of February.
