Chapter 133 Beast Fighting in the Arena, Invincible Battle Pets
Soon, the reward live stream ended, and the show live stream began.
The show was short, showcasing four seasonal outfits made offline.
The clothes in the physical store are very different from those in the game. Most people design clothes to make them look as close to the game as possible and to make them look beautiful.
However, Lin Shuying's design was not just to fit the game, but to be even more perfect than the game.
Because her games are all designed based on offline works.
Once the clothing was displayed, the actual luster, shimmer, and movement were simply breathtaking.
The wealthy customers who placed orders were overjoyed, while those who missed out called immediately.
However, Lin Shuying is no longer accepting orders...
"Ugh, designer, what are you doing? You're not going to make money? I'll pay you whatever it takes, make me clothes, hairpins, and skewers!"
"I want it, I want it, I want it! I'll make a scene if you don't give it to me!"
Seeing these comments, Lin Shuying playfully gave Qingfengyi's live stream a voice gift: "Qingfengyi's orders are full, please make an appointment if you need one."
Countless viewers rushed to the studio to make reservations.
There are quite a few appointments available. Qingfengyi currently has 11 designers, with Lin Shuying as the chief designer. Appointments are not accepted.
The first place is Liang Ranran, who accepts reservations, but looking at the number of reservations, it might take three years to get a spot.
The second tier consists of the two who joined later, the third tier consists of the five who joined later, and the fourth tier consists of He Mengqiu and Xia Chunqi, who study in their spare time.
This service does not accept reservations, but you can select the first two tiers when making a reservation.
In other words, it's fine for the designers to do it, or for them to do it.
The last category is new designers, those who were just hired and haven't reported to the studio yet.
The models in the live-streamed fashion show are Meng Hailong and Li Feiyu, who are considered the most attractive on Qingfengyi's side, while the other two are the clients themselves.
They are all pretty young women, but their hair hasn't grown out yet, so they're using wigs for their hairstyles.
My walking was a little awkward, but I had a lot of fun.
Walking the runway live is a completely different experience from watching others walk the runway on a screen. Walking the runway myself is so much fun!
Standing on the platform, I feel as if I'm glowing, my heart is light and airy, and my confidence shines brightly.
Although I'm a little nervous, today's Qingfengyi fashion show is a closed event, only broadcast live, with no live audience.
The two bosses arrived early, and after getting to know the employees, their tension decreased considerably, and they left quite well.
Xia Chunqi and Lin Qiaoqiao filmed and controlled the camera positions together, while Zhang Zhongxia and He Mengqiu controlled the live broadcast angle and guided the models to look at the camera.
Therefore, the perspective presented in the live stream was incredibly beautiful and evocative.
In the audience's view, Li Feiyu first appeared, walking gracefully in a spring outfit.
The surrounding deep blue, almost black background does not draw attention to the clothing, making the model the sole visual focus.
Peach petals fall with special lighting effects, fluttering and scattering, and every step you take is like walking through clusters of blooming flowers.
The special effects underfoot vary depending on the season: lotus flowers in summer, chrysanthemums in autumn, and snowflakes in winter.
Against a deep blue background, the shimmering special effects are very attractive, like a fairy walking out of the void of the universe.
"Ahhh, I've already got these four limited-edition items, but how come I didn't know they were so beautiful!"
"My mecha grand marshal, is this the right way to wear the seasonal outfits? They're so beautiful."
"I strongly urge the designer to make the dress-up arena look like this, I want to take pictures!"
........
The four outfits were showcased very briefly and the show was over quickly.
The audience was left wanting more, and the live stream ended abruptly.
Qingfengyi disregarded the audience's feelings, and after the broadcast ended, the two big bosses came to watch her runway video one after another, and were more and more satisfied with it.
Standing on the runway, you can't see your surroundings; all you see are lights and a dark background. Only the view indicator lights and cue boards are visible, and you can't see any of the attractive special effects around you.
Watching the video now, I can hardly believe that's me!
Too beautiful!
One customer excitedly asked, "I've decided to become a major shareholder of Qingfengyi! How much money do I need to become a major shareholder?"
Lin Qiaoqiao smiled and said, "Qingfengyi is wholly owned and does not accept investment."
The boss asked, "What if you don't have enough funds and can't continue developing?"
Another boss chuckled, "Is Qingfengyi really on a roll these days?"
The boss said, "The rise and fall of anything is predetermined. If I become a shareholder of Qingfengyi, I will be able to invest money without hesitation when Qingfengyi needs it."
Another boss thought about it and realized it made sense!
No one's guarantee is as useful as one's own. Qingfengyi's things are too beautiful and too attractive, and she will only feel at ease if she becomes a guardian of them.
"I want to become a shareholder of Qingfengyi too!"
Lin Qiaoqiao used various tricks to lure people away.
Lin Shuying has already left; she now needs to prepare for the next event and design the studio.
First, we'll create the design drawings so Liang Ranran and her team can familiarize themselves with them beforehand, making it easier to control the details during production.
For these high-end designs, they would use inexpensive materials to make a sample, check for errors, and only after that would they accept customer orders.
They can't do what Lin Shu-ying does—arbitrarily modify design drafts and guarantee that the new design is better than the original.
The main clothing item for the last event was women's wear, all four sets.
For this event, Jeremy Lin mainly focused on menswear designs, and there were only four outfits.
A round-necked red robe, printed with a nine-colored deer in crimson gold.
Gold, after being treated with special techniques, can refract seven colors of light, making it very beautiful.
He wore a blue and white Taoist robe and a dark blue felt hat with a large white jade ornament on it, exuding an air of elegance and sophistication.
The clothes are made of soft cotton and linen fabric, with silk for the inner shirt. The outer layer is casual, composed, and relaxed, while the inner layer is comfortable and delicate.
It ensures an excellent wearing experience while maintaining the ethereal beauty of the Taoist robe.
A set of long, double-breasted gowns with a cross-collar in the middle, off-white in color, with subtle patterns of ingots and bats.
A three-legged golden crown with floating chrysanthemum flowers, paired with a jade hairpin.
The hair is tied up in a bun, with a gold crown and a tassel pendant in imperial green willow leaf color.
A set of clothes featuring a horse-face skirt paired with a black cross-collar shirt with a tai-chi fish design. The tai-chi fish is delicately embroidered, with the silk threads flowing and shimmering, exuding a graceful and ethereal charm.
The horse-face skirt features a gradient of dark blue and white ink wash, with small pleats and patchwork.
The lower hem is embroidered with landscapes, flying dragons, white cranes, and pine and bamboo patterns, which are densely packed on the lower hem, while the upper hem has large areas of gradient white space.
It doesn't overshadow the top, yet the connection is seamless.
The official hairstyle is a brownish-red headband, inlaid with purple agate, and surrounded by embroidered gold auspicious cloud patterns.
To tie up one's hair.
The clothing is a limited edition, but the belt and sash are not.
The last event featured women's clothing with accessories that were not limited edition; this time it's belts.
There are many belts; one outfit comes with three belts to choose from.
The Taoist robe had a red ribbon, a black ribbon, and a white ribbon.
The styles are similar, but the details are slightly different.
They are all very thin, not wide.
At each end of the silk ribbon is a walnut bead and a white jade koi carp, with tassels in corresponding colors.
The silk ribbons are woven with different patterns. The white ones have a dragon and wolf pattern, and the overall design looks like dragons surfing.
This kind of rope braiding is a bit complicated and takes a lot of time in practice, so Lin Shuying does not plan to produce this product in large quantities offline.
At most, two pieces will be made for teaching purposes or for studio designers to practice making.
Don't underestimate this small silk ribbon; it contains extremely high levels of technical and artistic skill.
The black part is woven with a cloud knot, and the tassels are tied with a lucky knot.
The red one is a lucky cloud and Pixiu knot, woven one by one with very fine silk threads. From a distance, it looks like a rope, but up close, it looks like a Pixiu soaring through the clouds.
Lin Shuying was always amazed by the details of Chinese artworks, as well as the craftsmanship, production time, and effort involved.
The spirit of craftsmanship in ancient times was truly built up layer by layer over the years, genuine and down-to-earth.
Weaving an exquisite silk ribbon can take anywhere from a month or two to a year, which is perfectly normal.
It is through meticulous and slow craftsmanship that treasures that have amazed generations have been created.
However, slow and meticulous work is destined to be eliminated by the times. An era that pursues efficiency, speed, and profit is not suitable for things with high value and spiritual essence to survive.
Of course, such exquisite silk ribbons were a precious item used by wealthy families in that era. Ordinary people used leftover fabric to make simple ribbons to bind their clothes.
Lin Shuying is going for a sophisticated look here, only picking out beautiful designs, hahaha.
The three belts that go with the round-necked robe are: a gold belt with a gold-threaded dragon and a jade plate buckle, and six white jade dragon buckles in total.
It's positioned right on both sides of the waist, with a golden dragon coiled in front and a golden flower belt at the back.
The belt is half a finger wide, so it belongs to the wide belt category.
The second belt is made of cowhide leather, with a fine texture and three layers of tightly pressed cowhide, and six lotus flowers inlaid with five-colored gemstones.
The Chinese knot button is made of plain white jade.
The leather belt is edged with gold and silver trim to form concentric waves that extend to both ends.
The third item is a leather sash with a small pouch on it, embroidered with tiger head patterns.
Of the twelve belts, the most exquisite was the official belt made for that double-breasted suit: the Nine Dragons Golden Jade Belt.
The top features nine dragons and landscapes embroidered with gold thread, and the frog clasp is made of spring mountain and sunflower jade.
Every part of the landscape is different, with detailed treatments: pine and cypress, white cranes, orchids, and chrysanthemum patterns.
The belt is about one and a half fingers wide, so it is a wide belt.
Paired with a bloodstone banana-shaped jade pendant.
This outfit also comes with a sword, which is reddish-gold in color, with a lotus-knot scabbard and a silver-white blade inside.
A red tassel.
The Taoist robe was paired with a fan made of peacock feathers.
The round-necked robe is paired with a fan with a plum blossom and birds design, made of nanmu wood with carved ribs.
The Tai Chi Fish set includes a flute made of black jade with delicate bamboo leaf carvings.
With the main limited-edition items designed, we started designing the gameplay and the remaining items.
With the recent influx of funds, the game's world map has been expanded many times over, and with the addition of unlocks from collaborations with game platforms, it now boasts a full 100 million square meters of space.
Lin Shuying plans to design a city, the main city, called Qingfeng City.
By bringing together the street dungeons, bamboo forest dungeons, Zhilan Mountain, and guilds, Qingfengyi will gradually become a very large world.
A city needs a sense of life, so she settled the homes of the wandering knights in this city. Instantly, the city came alive, and the wandering knights, through the interstellar super-intelligent interactive system, were matched one by one with their own stories, personalities, and behaviors.
The story takes place in a dungeon, and it hasn't been written yet. The Ranger will disappear at some point and reappear at another.
The mechanism here is inspired by the work system: the ranger has his own story world, and playing a role in that adventure is his job.
Of course, I also have to work overtime in the Huaxia Jianghu occasionally.
So when players enter this city, they will find that the wandering knights come and go, somewhat like dragons whose tails are seen but whose heads are not.
Very busy.
The city's architecture is even more exquisite than that of the guild, with glazed tiles, carved beams, and painted pillars.
Flying dragons and mythical beasts perch on the eaves, while a hundred immortals descend to earth and sit before the hall.
Flowers and birds appear at windows and doors in all four seasons, bringing good fortune and happiness everywhere.
The guild has undergone a major building upgrade and is now located in the heart of the city.
Ninety-nine steps are piled up, the steps are arranged in an eight-trigram pattern, and each step is adorned with a white jade railing and a glazed animal-shaped ornament.
The main hall is layered, the eaves are interwoven, and the lucky bells are jingling in the wind.
The Nine Dragon Cauldron and the Strange Fire Furnace each stand at a corner, while the central arena rises high, with a base cast in black iron and edges cast in steel.
With all characters invincible, players can continue to act recklessly even when they embark on the cultivation side quest.
The arena has been expanded tenfold, making it more than enough for large teams of 32 people, let alone small teams of ten.
The surrounding square was particularly spacious, and when players challenged each other to a duel, the audience would sit on their own red embroidered balls and fly up to watch.
With the addition of a protective shield, the aftershocks of the battle inside the ring will not affect the audience outside.
While designing, Lin Shuying suddenly had an idea and ran to take a look. The previous arena really didn't have any audience shields. If you got too close to watch the excitement, players without combat power would definitely be caught in the crossfire and killed instantly.
But as a player of a large-scale game, how can you not watch the excitement?
Not watching the excitement is like missing out on half the fun.
Human nature: Wherever there's excitement, there I am!
So she added a protective shield, and she'll visit it often when she has time, hahaha.
While we can no longer witness the gladiatorial combats of ancient Rome, we can still enjoy watching the human-versus-human battles in Qingfengyi.
Thinking of this, she recalled some of the more common, low-class professions: crickets, roosters, cows, horses, sheep, and so on.
Everyone knows that the animal fighting culture in the Western countries of Earth has a long history, with famous horse fighting, bull fighting, and dog fighting.
The Colosseum in ancient Rome is almost universally known.
However, when it comes to the history of animal fighting, China can trace it back to primitive society, and is in no way inferior to other countries.
Back in the day, even emperors could carry crickets around the court, while they raised chickens in their harems without any imperial concubines.
Bullfighting was a unique activity that emerged in some special regions when Lin Shuying was there. It happened that she happened to be passing through XX County on her way to see the bamboo forest.
My friend said that there weren't many people at these kinds of events in the county, so it would be nice to go and check it out.
When we arrived at the venue, it was packed with people, and tickets cost over fifty yuan.
It was still the opening ceremony, but there was only a bullfighting performance, not a bullfighting competition.
The hilltop was tethered with a whole herd of fat cattle, with long horns, shiny hair, firm muscles, and enormous weight.
Lin Shuying didn't dare to get close.
In the subsequent exhibition match, four cows went down, and only two of them started fighting. The other cow took a liking to its opponent and tried to climb onto it.
The crowd roared with laughter, creating a spectacular scene.
The laughter only stopped when the cow that had been climbed finally ran into the enclosure.
The other cows that were officially scheduled to perform didn't arrive, so they brought two sheep instead. The two sheep just stared at each other, and no matter how the owner tried to coax them, they wouldn't fight.
They were in a hurry and only watched for about an hour; it was quite fun.
Unfortunately, she didn't get to see the official match, and Lin Shuying even went to search for related videos to watch later.
That was really amazing!
Why do humans enjoy watching animal fights?
It's not just about winning and losing, but also about the most primal, wild struggle.
As humanity entered civilized society, it restrained its savagery, and even when it did unleash it, it did so in a more sophisticated way, thus losing the thrill of wild combat.
The more you lack something, the more you crave it, so animal fighting came to the forefront.
Of course, this is Lin Shuying's one-sided understanding; there are also survival reasons such as using beasts to fight instead of humans to reduce personnel losses.
I won't go into details here.
