  When Chen Ge left yesterday, the paint on the simulator’s head wasn’t dry yet, and it was at most a half-finished product, so he didn’t find it much more intimidating at the time.

  Opening the glass door, Chen Ge and the fat boss came next to the workbench.

  ”This look, this texture, it’s really condescending for you to open a haunted house.” The fat boss followed Chen Ge and picked up the head of a schoolgirl on the table, at first he was a bit scared, after getting used to looking at it he was gradually attracted by the head in his hand.

  It was so lifelike that the girl’s eyes seemed to harbor some kind of emotion, without a bit of the stagnation and rigidity of dolls.

  ”The best doll maker I’ve ever seen is just like this.” The fat boss held the simulated human head and looked at the girl’s face, gazing at it for more than a minute before removing his gaze.

  He seemed to have something to say, and after hesitating for half a day, he finally put the girl’s head back in its original position and gently touched Chen Ge, who was busy: “Brother, I actually have another thing I want to discuss with you when I come over so early today.”

  Brother?

  The fat boss had suddenly changed his name and his attitude had also undergone a big shift, which made Chen Ge a bit uncomfortable.

  ”Just tell me if there’s something, I’ll try to help if I can.” Chen Ge was busy designing the body for the mannequin, so he spoke more directly.

  ”It’s good for you, me.” The fat boss took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Chen Ge, “We can contact each other more often in the future.”

  ”Qian Guigen?” Chen Ge didn’t know what kind of medicine he was selling, why he suddenly became so enthusiastic.

  When Chen Ge accepted the business card, Boss Qian said mysteriously, “I used to specialize in making dolls for major amusement parks and stores, but nowadays, technology is too advanced, and all kinds of visual projections can be faked, so the demand for dolls has greatly decreased. In order to keep the store afloat, I’ve been thinking about transitioning lately, but the model of this industry is already fixed, and it’s just too hard to transform.”

  ”It’s hard to transform any industry, I suggest that it’s better for you to be honest, don’t lose your family’s fortune.” Chen Ge had made a student’s body out of clay and was wiping the surface of the clay with a wet sponge, his finger force was mastered just right, and the place that was wiped by the sponge was like a real person’s skin, smooth and tight. He wasn’t too concerned about Boss Qian’s conception, only thinking about hurrying up to finish it and transporting these dolls back to the haunted house.

  ”Before I met you, I thought the same thing, but after I met you, it was as if a small boat sailing in the mist saw a lighthouse, you showed me a direction.” Boss Qian gathered around Chen Ge and looked at the twenty-four simulated human heads with different expressions on the workbench and suddenly spoke, “I have a bold idea!”

  ”Move over and give me the sixteenth carving knife.”

  ”Don’t you disregard it! If we can transform successfully, in the future, our net profit for a month might be more than your haunted house’s admission money for a year!” Boss Qian slapped his fat hand on the table and looked at Chen Ge very seriously.

  Mentioning money, Chen Ge stopped his work, “I’m not the kind of person who loves money, I’m just curious about your transformation idea.”

  ”Small creative dolls don’t sell well, and the market for large poor quality dolls is low, so I decided to take the high-end customization route!” Boss Qian carefully held up Chen Ge’s well-made human head, “This is the first time I’ve seen such a realistic mannequin, you’re still using relatively poor materials, if we replace it with the best materials, won’t we be able to make a mannequin that is almost indistinguishable from a real person’s appearance?”

  ”Theoretically no problem.” Chen Ge didn’t tell Boss Qian that as long as he was given enough things to prepare, he might even be able to make real living dolls.

  ”That’s your talent, and that’s the doorway for us to get rich!” Boss Qian took out his phone and casually searched for some pictures of semi-solid dolls, “These crude adult dolls on the internet dare to ask for eight or nine thousand, and the dolls that we specially customized to be one-to-one with real people with flawless looks cost at least five figures. I’ve done the relevant research, this market is huge and won’t be saturated in the next few years.”

  ”This idea of yours is indeed very bold.” Chen Ge shook his head and continued to busy himself with the clay embryo.

  ”Profitable ah! With your speed yesterday, you can easily make twenty in three days, a month is two hundred, the market has never seen dolls like this before, starting at least fifteen thousand, even if we use the most expensive materials we’ll still make a profit of ten thousand! Two million a month! Why are you still opening a haunted house!” Boss Qian didn’t expect Chen Ge’s reaction to be so cold.

  ”I won’t do anything that breaks the law, besides customizing the dolls according to the photos and information provided by the customer is an infringement on the person in the photo.” Chen Ge knew in his heart that the dolls he had created used the method of making living dolls, there was a certain amount of danger involved, he didn’t want to see headlines about dolls killing people appearing on the news in the future.

  ”Why are you so pedantic!” Boss Qian had a rather painful feeling, “Every one of us is an island, even the most loving couple will argue. But dolls are different, in fact, many people will choose dolls for companionship just to find a support for themselves. With so many stresses in life, no matter who you talk to, they will get bored, only dolls won’t. By customizing dolls for them, you’re not hurting anyone, you’re just helping countless lonely people build a harbor in the center of the ocean where they can dock.”

  ”I think if you went to sell insurance, you might have your own company by now.” Chen Ge lowered his head to make clay embryos, this world was not as peaceful as it appeared, if the living puppets he made were sent around, things would probably get out of hand, and in the end, he would probably be implicated.

  ”If you have a bold idea, you have to try it! Why don’t you make two more dolls today, I’ll take it to promote it first, if it doesn’t work, then everything will be as if I didn’t say it.” Boss Qian had all the photos ready in his cell phone, obviously prepared.

  ”Boss Qian, have you ever envisioned such a scenario, when you and the mannequin share the same bed, when you fall asleep, the mannequin slowly opens its eyes.”

  ”How can a mannequin …… open its eyes?”

  ”If you don’t believe me, you can come to my haunted house to experience it, the mannequins I made are not quite the same as ordinary mannequins, not just in terms of appearance.” Chen Ge didn’t go into details, this fat boss felt like a good person, just a little bit more forward thinking.

  After hearing Chen Ge’s words, Boss Qian looked at the simulated human head on the workbench again, he was a little scared in his heart, but he still didn’t die, “When you figure it out, feel free to contact me.”

  While chatting, Chen Ge had already finished the clay embryo and started repeating yesterday’s steps.

  At nine o’clock in the morning, Chen Ge packed all the simulated human heads into three large cardboard boxes, called a cab, and transported them to New Century Paradise.

  ”The mannequin body parts will all be done tonight, and the Twilight Sun Middle School scene should be officially ready for use tomorrow.”
