Players Invade Cyberpunk-Chapter 918 - 297: Yunding Grand Opening!
The true secrets in this world belong only to those who create them; the rest are just insider news.
Corporate dogs have their own circles, and even employees from rival companies may maintain rather smooth private communications.
"Have you guys heard?"
"What?"
"The Tiger Claw Gang's Yunding has reopened @everyone."
"What? Haven't their leaders been all wiped out by that group of crazy mercenaries? Did Huang Ban really send someone to take charge of Yunding so soon? @Huang Ban Meizhi's dogs"
"That's impossible; I've never heard of anything like that. Though my supervisor mentioned recovering Tiger Claw Gang assets in a department meeting, upper management doesn't seem very interested. It's still that old woman, Okada Wako, in charge, and the market valuation of Night City assets has been downgraded by two levels in the investment department's asset expectations. It seems Dog Town's situation has really dampened market enthusiasm."
"Although I want to say maybe it's just your level isn't high enough, my colleagues in the Zeta Technology investment circle are also discussing it. I don't know why Night City's fixed assets have taken such a hit lately."
"Hey! We're talking about Yunding, you know? Anyone talking business, please get out of the frivolous chatroom."
"Right! GCK!"
"According to my insider info, during the renovation of Yunding, the piston robots inside, both male and female, were all brought to the Evil Land by those crazy mercenaries."
"Wow, seems like those guys had quite the enjoyable time there, big silver sands of Evil Land. Why didn't the sandstorm bury them together?"
"I can smell someone's bitterness over the network. How about we gamble on how many customers your darling sweethearts entertained over these days?"
"Shut up! Who cares about those buses; even when I go buy cigarettes, I run into nine men who've slept with one of them."
"No! No! No! I've heard they didn't go to Evil Land for some troop entertainment deal; it's for some kind of secret training. You know—it might be worth experiencing the results of their special training."
"Time!"
"After work today, Yunding reopens with a grand promotion! I've snagged several group-buy coupons from the upper tier! Hahaha!"
"Go! Go! Go!"*N

A fierce battle within the Japan Street super skyscraper has passed for almost half a month; the damage inside is still being repaired, but personnel movement is more active than ever before.
Horizon Corporation has not only promised to cover all repair costs, compensation, and labor for this battle but has also placed a terminal on the first floor for the skyscraper's residents to report damaged and inconvenient facilities. The company's repair team will visit to record and solve each problem.
Including but not limited to aging circuits, insufficient water pressure, peeling insulation, rusty railings, and even clogged sewage pipes...
The best way to win the support of the people is to walk among them and find out what they really want.
Even overdue electricity bills and rent were bought by Horizon Corporation.
But Lin Miao doesn't feel the pinch since it's not his money being spent; it's assets taken from Yunding, where just the cash reserves on the books are over twenty million; not to mention the various assets Tiger Claw Gang holds across Night City, all together worth tens of billions. Even after all expenses, at least sixty percent remains; otherwise, why do they say 'killing people and arson bring a gold belt, while building bridges and paving roads leave no corpse'?
But the changes within the skyscraper aren't within the corporate dogs' notice range; they don't live on the lower or middle floors but are regulars on the upper floors,
Their way to Yunding isn't via elevators or stairs but directly by taking a hovercar to commute.
A group of corporate dogs descended from the hovering hovercar, chatting and observing the changes in Yunding after the mess.
The internal renovation isn't much different from before; after all, Yunding has already proved with its outstanding performance that its aesthetics are spot on. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
"All strangers here."
Huang Ban Corporation dogs noticed something unusual about Yunding; whether the receptionist that greeted them or the piston robots walking inside the club, they are different from the original batch.
The others aren't surprised
"Of course, I bet it was so intense back then; you guys at Huang Ban even deployed that monster Adam's Hammer, so everyone in Yunding is probably dead to death."
"I don't care about strangers; I only care if Horizon Corporation's service measures up to before, don't taint Yunding's nameplate, hey!"
One corporate dog waved at the receptionist
"Bring out your piston robots list."
The receptionist is using the behavior chip of the previous Yunding piston robots, with a similar smile on her face.
She transferred the signal from the terminal to the guests via WiFi.
"Please take a look."
The corporate dogs are each surprised
"Indeed... even the piston robots are entirely new people."
"How come I've never seen them in Night City before?"
"Hiss—this appearance... so beautiful..."
It's widely known that if a game is exclusive to the PS or NS, the character's appearance is set by the manufacturer.
But once the game moves to PC, the character's appearance, clothing, and even whether they wear clothes are no longer determined by the manufacturer.
It's determined by the player's XP and dark humor.
This time, the club piston robots have all been premised by cyber-enhanced doctors to be upgraded gangster men on duty, so their appearance rights belong most to the players.
Female piston robots are okay; usually, players do not design female characters too ugly, basically an ensemble of players' XP, like cat girls, maids, furries, queens... all within everyone's understanding, and the final result is exceptionally superb.
