Interstellar Travel: Becoming a Dress-Up Game Designer

Chapter 230

Lin Shuying was sitting on the balcony drinking tea and making silk flowers when she suddenly collapsed. It was terrifying! Xia Chunqi and the others quickly used a home medical robot to treat her, but it didn't work. The high temperature wouldn't come down, and she finally had to be taken to the hospital.

Qingfengyi prepared a very advanced robot because making hairpins, clothes, and occasionally carving is a dangerous thing, especially for beginners. It is normal for them to poke a hundred holes in their fingers.

The hospital quickly sent people to examine the patient, but they couldn't find the cause. The planetary lord and his group had already arrived at the hospital. They were truly astounded that even the interstellar genetic diseases had been resolved; how could an unknown disease emerge?

Lin Shuying woke up the next day, and the original owner's parents hugged her and cried their eyes out.

"Honey, you scared your parents to death!"

Lin Shuying's face was a little pale, and she said in a low voice, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

After greeting everyone and telling her to rest well, Lin Qiaoqiao smiled and saw them off. But when she turned back, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Shuying herself is also very confused.

"He's probably sleepy."

Looking at the original owner's parents, relatives, and the employees who cared about her, Lin Shuying was stunned. Her head suddenly felt a little dizzy again.

"I'm a little sleepy, I'll talk to you after I wake up."

She slept for a whole day, and when she woke up, she felt no discomfort, and her mind wasn't as foggy as it had been before she collapsed. The doctors didn't know why, and she certainly didn't know either, assuming it was a mental issue caused by the sudden relaxation of her previously high-pressure work schedule.

In that case, let's continue with the high-pressure work we were doing before.

Project Dragon's Flight has achieved initial success, with another planet slated to adopt Qingfengyi's unique cultural style, becoming the second star in the Huaxia Interstellar sphere. Although it's only a third-magnitude star, like the first star in the Huaxia Interstellar sphere, it has caused quite a stir. After all, changing a planet's name and attributes is a significant matter, and it will be broadcast on the entire interstellar news network.

Immediately afterwards, Sweetheart Planet announced that it had become the third interstellar planet belonging to China. This bombshell news left the interstellar population stunned. How could they all be announcing themselves as interstellar planets belonging to China?

What are the benefits of becoming a Chinese interstellar planet?

"I don't know, it's just three planets, it doesn't matter. I heard they're all planets supported by Qingfengyi's capital, so it's understandable that they announce their alignment with Qingfengyi."

"That's true. Aimore has already secured a place on a second-tier planet thanks to Qingfengyi, but the planet's lord has been controlling the population, preventing it from meeting the recognition criteria. His announcement that Aimore would become a Huaxia interstellar planet seems like a gesture of goodwill towards Qingfengyi. Given Qingfengyi's current momentum, he can definitely push Aimore to become a super planet. Half of Sweetheart Planet's assets belong to Qingfengyi, so I'm quite surprised that it changed its name later than Aimore. As for Tilan City Planet, Barbie Fashion there is probably doing better than Qingfengyi, right?"

Soon, some interstellar situation experts joined in, offering their interpretations of the current situation. This was a rare spectacle in interstellar history; if they didn't seize the opportunity to ride the wave, they wouldn't have another chance.

"Barbie Fashion can't compare to Qingfengyi. It can't monetize resources and absorbs the planet's own funds. Draining most of the real economy into the virtual game will inevitably drag down the planet's economic development. Although Barbie Fashion brings good potential to the clothing industry, that's only in the clothing sector. Residents don't rely heavily on clothing; 90% of people still wear spray-on clothes in real life. But the offline real economy brought by Qingfengyi is immeasurable, involving education, elderly care, real estate, transportation, travel, services, clothing, and even the energy stone industry. Tilan City's choice of Qingfengyi is perfectly reasonable."

"I agree with the previous point. Tilan City used to be a transit station for mining planets, with three mining planets nearby. It is said that the mining on those planets is about to be exhausted, and Tilan City must find a way to transform itself. Its biggest advantage is its large area, which is spacious and has a lot of flat terrain. But who can make use of these advantages? In the end, the planet will be deserted and become a wasteland. Qingfengyi, on the other hand, can bring industrial reform to it. After the planet's attributes are transformed into a tourist planet, it will have another major advantage: convenient transportation. The mining transport routes that were built before can be preserved, saving a lot of money."

"The analysis above makes a lot of sense. The tourism resources that Qingfengyi brought can definitely support this planet!"

"I don't think so. The first star in the Huaxia Interstellar Sphere already has a Qingfengyi-style tourist resource site, which is also the starting point of Qingfengyi's development. Tourists who want to go there are not stupid enough to go to a planet where they can't enter the game."

"I don't know how difficult it is for you to say something like that. Right now, it's almost unable to accommodate wedding guests."

"By the way, didn't you guys ever think that Tilan City would develop a completely different tourist route than Aimor?"

"The Chinese style only has so much; what else can it develop into?"

.......

Fortunately, Lin Shuying didn't see this. Let alone developing two or three planets, she could easily develop dozens, each with its own unique strengths. At the very least, one planet per dynasty would be feasible, right?

Although Sweetheart Planet changed its name, its developmental focus remained the same: a food planet. Initially, the plan was to develop Chinese pastries, but after Chef Sun Miao led the Baiwei Group there, they also began developing Chinese cuisine, completely transforming it into a Chinese food planet. The name change was to align with Lin Shuying's plans; as Chinese people, we always strive for unity on the big picture!

In the game, after unlocking the Flower Rice and Dyeing storylines, players explore the Torch Festival, White Moon Festival, Flower Mountain Festival, March Festival, and more. There's simply too much to do! Even playing one or two months' worth of events a day wouldn't be enough, and that's with the game accelerated; many events are achieved through simple clicks.

After changing its name, Tilan City immediately dispatched an administrator to discuss development directions with Qingfengyi, hoping to attract clients that the leading planet in the Chinese interstellar space couldn't handle. When Lin Shuying received this plan, she immediately rejected it. She didn't want the Chinese cultural attractions that had developed in the interstellar space to become homogenized like in her previous life. Homogenization would rapidly shorten the lifespan and scope of tourist attractions, making them commonplace. Furthermore, competition for resources would lead to vicious competition and eventual decline.

Many tourist attractions in China in the past were short-lived, which is why those that were popular either relied on unique historical buildings or figures, or beautiful mountains, rivers and buildings.

She carefully studied the environment of the second planet in the Huaxia Interstellar galaxy. Having recently organized a cultural event showcasing the 56 ethnic groups, her mind hadn't lost its sharp edge despite her inexplicable illness. She quickly selected the Mongolian and Tibetan cultures, believing this place was truly suitable for developing tourism related to these two ethnic groups.

Tilan City is characterized by its high mountains, snow-capped peaks, and lakes. However, these lakes are toxic, unlike those on Earth, and cannot support life. They are filled with nitrogen-rich water, and the snow-capped mountains are also formed from condensed nitrogen. It's quite astonishing; such a thing shouldn't exist in a space or environment where humans can normally exist, yet it does on this planet, and over a vast area.

Lin Shuying, a liberal arts student, couldn't understand it, and it would probably seem quite unbelievable to a science student as well.

The mountains and plains are divided into Tibetan cultural scenic areas, while the plains are developed into Mongolian cultural scenic areas. The grasslands are artificial grass, and the cattle and sheep are machine-made, but the yurts and Tibetan yurts are real, just built with different materials.

The infrastructure certainly can't be exactly the same as Qingfengyi's, because the plant and animal resources are cloned using interstellar technology, and the environment doesn't support their self-development. Furthermore, Tilan City has accumulated considerable wealth as a mining planet transit station, but this wealth isn't enough to fully introduce animals and plants; even rudimentary technological imitations of the environment are too expensive.

If the planet's owner hadn't been so decisive, he would have absconded with the money and abandoned the planet.

The infrastructure plan was drafted under Lin Shuying's advice and guidance, and the next step was cultural introduction. Tourists certainly don't come expecting to actually live that kind of life; they just want to experience it. And there's no need to actually make interstellar people live the lives of those ethnic groups, because they are not that ethnic group, nor are they living people of that era. Lin Shuying's goal was simply to ensure that Chinese culture and history are passed down, that the spring, summer, autumn, and winter of the fifty-six flowers are witnessed and recorded.

Therefore, the development focus is on holidays.

The Mongolian people have a White Moon Festival, which is also their New Year. During this time, there are customs borrowed from the Han Chinese, such as setting off firecrackers and making dumplings, as well as unique customs like lighting bonfires, eating roasted meat, giving hada (ceremonial scarves), drinking fine wine, and wearing traditional costumes. Essentially, there isn't much difference between the two festivals; everyone is simply enjoying good food, drink, clothing, and entertainment, expressing good wishes, and hoping for a better new year.

This is humanity's most fundamental yearning for a better life, a heartfelt wish shared by all ethnic groups. However, due to differences in migration and cultural development, as well as variations in pathways and living environments, the ways of expression and customs have become incredibly diverse.

The Mongolian people are also famous for the Naadam festival, their biggest recreational event. In ancient times, it was a three-part competition for men—wrestling, horseback riding, and archery—later evolving into a rich celebration and trade exchange activity. If done well, it can be really interesting; although there are no real horses in space, there are mechs!

We could collaborate with the military, schools, mecha racing teams, or other organizations to bring them to the planet for competitions. Or we could create some robotic horses—not for realism, but for fun and resemblance.

There are many festivals that can be held from beginning to end throughout the year, such as the Mare's Milk Festival, the Aobao Festival, the Mair Festival, and the Zulu Festival. Lin Shuying was unaware of some of them, so she did not include them.

At this point, Zhang Zhongxia, who was also attending the meeting, said, "Recently, historians have discovered a lot of historical materials related to Chinese culture, including those of the Mongolian and Tibetan peoples. Although they are just some pictures, you can keep a close eye on them and actively introduce more content as it becomes available. I believe that once you successfully develop this first, you will have a great advantage when discussing it with people from the Institute of History."

Lin Shuying was deeply moved after hearing this; there really was information about Chinese culture in it!

She stood up excitedly, almost overturning the table in front of her. Everyone turned to look at her, wondering why she was so excited. Lin Shuying forced herself to calm down and said apologetically, "Please continue. I suddenly had some inspiration and got a little excited. Sorry."

Everyone waved their hands to indicate that they didn't mind.

After sitting down, Lin Shuying quickly turned on her personal computer to check the news. Seeing the pictures in the trending news brought tears to her eyes. This truly is the continuation of Earth's civilization!

But why was there so little information released before?
