Arcane Lord

"Hrista, are all the gateway parameters of each country normal?" Sha Duo asked.

"Except for the high pressure index of the nodes connected to the main network, everything else is normal." Christa checked again before replying.

Hearing such a result, Xia Duo couldn't help but feel a little distracted, "I didn't think carefully. The key node gateway should be specially designed and manufactured."

I had not thought of distributing connectors for free before, and the estimate of the total number of people accessing the computing power pool was wrong. Now there is no time to redesign and manufacture them, so I can only use a general version of the gateway magic device on top.

It's nothing more than a discount on the service life. It's only been a few days since the computing power pool has been officially put into operation. There shouldn't be any problems for at least half a month.

Afterwards, Xia Duo inspected the gateway control center again. After this circle, he discovered a new problem. It was not that there was any problem with the computing power pool itself, but that the control center lacked a lot of visual monitoring interfaces.

If you want to check the status of various aspects of the computing power pool, someone must personally connect to the Linsi network and then retrieve information from the network. Currently, only part of the status of the gateway processor has been visually displayed.

What Xia Duo now wants to check is the usage status of those prepaid users to see whether they have started to use advanced functions and how much they have used. This is directly related to the future income of the computing power pool.

If users are generally interested in advanced features, they will be more willing to pay, and the computing power pool can also earn more.

…

By personally accessing the computing power pool and using the authority of the main network, Xia Duo easily locked in prepaid users one by one. According to the information sent back by previous dispatchers, there are currently more than 40,000 paying users.

Nearly one-third of the total users, which is already a high proportion!

Combined with the 40 million prepaid payment received previously, each paying user has recharged an average of 1,000 gold coins, which is enough for them to use 10 hours of enhanced mode or 5 hours of professional mode.

The Supreme Mode must be recharged separately, and there is a time limit. Lingsi Network Research Center has temporarily opened 50 Supreme Mode quotas, and each of the five major alliance countries has allocated ten.

At present, except for Netheril, all the supreme mode quotas of the other four countries-actually the duration of the supreme mode, but only sold to ten mages-have been sold.

Through the access to the main network of the computing power pool, Xia Duo "saw" that there are currently less than 10,000 paying users online, but almost everyone has been using the advanced features for quite some time.

Many paying users have even exhausted all their advance payments.

Seeing this, Xia Duo used his brain to calculate. In the three days since the computing power pool was officially in operation, those paying users had consumed nearly 10 million gold coins.

If we can continue to consume at this rate in the future, then there will really be no problem in making 200 million before the end of June!

…

Just when Xia Duochang was thinking about making hundreds of millions a month, someone was contacting him through the computing power pool. This is a communication network that is only open to the alliance within the public computing power pool. It is temporarily used by people from the Lingsi Network Research Center. Got more.

"Consultant Xia Duo, I want to apply for another thousand hours of standard time. A big client just came here and I don't have enough quota."

It turns out that they are sales staff who are dispatched to various countries. Paying users purchase the access to the advanced functions of the computing power pool from these sales staff. Calculated based on the standard length of time, one thousand hours is equivalent to 100,000 gold coins!

A big customer indeed!

After receiving the application, Xia Duo did not hesitate and immediately increased the authorization limit for the corresponding sales staff. In fact, if you were not worried about those sales staff messing around, it would be more convenient to not set restrictions.

After all, what they are selling is actually a virtual product, a service that has not yet been realized. No matter how much they release, it will be in vain as long as the main network does not recognize it.

But for users, it is different. Even if it is a standard duration obtained through abnormal means, it should be canceled. But if it is cancelled, users will definitely be dissatisfied. After all, Lingsi Network Research The center is also at fault.

Therefore, in order to avoid similar troubles, Xia Duo simply set rules for each overseas salesperson, and only had an authorization limit of 1,000 standard hours.

As for the preservation of the advance payment, it does not require them to send it back as soon as they receive it. The reason is very simple. Xia Duo directly designated the Tower of Time Void Warehouse Chamber of Commerce as a cooperative unit.

Then, as the person in charge of the Tower of Time, he opened a special warehouse for the Lingsi Network Research Center. The warehouse permissions obtained by the dispatched sales staff can only be deposited, not withdrawn.

As for the total sales, there will naturally be dedicated people at the headquarters to count them.

It's just that statistics are also cyclical, and people can't be arranged to count them in real time. They are counted almost once a day. The 40 million in the previous three days was the result of counting three times.

…

At present, the gateway control hall has been transferred to the computing power pool operation department, but not all researchers have evacuated. Not to mention that now is a critical moment, even if the operation is stable in the future, a certain number of professionals will still be retained.

As for now, after Xia Duo made several inspections, he called the researchers in the control hall aside for a small meeting, mainly about establishing a visual interface.

There have been some visual interfaces for status monitoring in the control hall before. After experiencing it, everyone has long been able to accept and be happy to accept this form.

Now they have received a formal order to turn the status data specified by Xia Duo into a visual interface. Everyone is full of expectations. After all, the job of these researchers is to study the Lingsi network, not to stay here to monitor the operation of the computing power pool. state.

When the visual interface is completed, ordinary people will be able to do the tasks that originally required researchers, and researchers can go on to more important things.

When the researchers discussed the design plan, Shaduo occasionally participated in the discussion. In addition to providing some inspiration, more importantly, he reserved an interface for intelligent brain connection.

In this way, he does not need to go to the gateway control center every time. He can directly retrieve the running status and data of the already set computing power pool through the smart brain.

This kind of interface can be used not only by Xia Duo but also by the alliance's top management. However, they do not have the assistance of an intelligent brain, so they can only see specific pieces of data, and it is difficult to obtain overall statistical results.

As for the visual interface on the gateway control center, there is no need to cheat, but it is still reserved. It is enough to monitor the running status of the computing power pool. It is more of a matter for professionals.

…

In a blink of an eye, time quickly came to June.

Under the leadership of Xia Duo, the alliance's public computing power pool has successfully passed through various ups and downs in the early stages of operation. Now Xia Duo has a smile on his face almost all the time. Without him, the income of the computing power pool is too objective.

Since the beginning of June, user recharge amounts have repeatedly reached new highs. In less than ten days this month, the original target of 200 million by the end of the month has been successfully completed.

In other words, at the current moment, the computing power pool has turned a profit, and if nothing else happens, it will be a pure profit in the future.

Without the pressure of losses, Xia Duo is naturally happy. (End of chapter)
