Chapter 1170 Looking for a dead ghost (for the bald monk 1/2)
After roughly finalizing the plans for each package, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "It's really expensive."
Tenda has also made some relatively expensive equipment before, such as fully automatic lifting bars and smart fitness clothes drying racks.
But compared with this set of analog equipment, the price is far behind.
This is the result of following Mr. Pei's usual style of keeping the price as low as possible.
And even if you buy this set of equipment, it is not complete. Players also need a high-end computer, a three-screen monitor or an extra-long ring screen, a fish screen monitor, or VR glasses.
If you want three 2K monitors with narrow bezels, you won’t be able to afford them even if you don’t have 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.
Based on this calculation, it would probably cost around 30,000 yuan to build a fun piece of equipment from scratch.
Wang Xiaobin explained: "There is nothing you can do about it being expensive. This is the reasonable price of this set of equipment."
"At this price, we actually have no profit. This means that Tenda can make money from games, and other manufacturers cannot achieve this price."
"If you want to get a good experience, the steering wheel surface, direct drive base and foot pedals, these three accessories must not be ambiguous."
"It's actually very simple to lower the price. If you make the steering wheel a gear transmission and the plate body a plastic one, it can be reduced to more than a thousand yuan; if the pedals are made of plastic plus springs, the price should be about the same at five hundred yuan. But.
In this way, the game experience will definitely be greatly reduced."
"The simulator takes up a lot of space. Since I bought it, I must pursue the best gaming experience."
"Of course, if players find it too expensive, they can also buy those steering wheels on the market that cost two to three thousand yuan, and then just spend a hundred yuan from us to buy a special console, and they can still play "Safe and Civilized Driving" normally.
》.”
"But when we want to make peripherals, we must make them the best. We can't make a cheap version. That will affect Tenda's long-standing reputation. What's more, people who really know the industry will understand that our solution is already very cheap.
Yes, compared with foreign plans, the price has been cut by at least half.”
"And this set of equipment will be perfectly adapted to our games. We can also provide door-to-door installation services like smart fitness clothes drying racks. All in all, it is very cost-effective."
Chang You nodded: "Understood."
"The rough plan has been determined first, and I have written down some key points. Next, I will find professionals in this field, and then the corresponding manufacturers to see if there is anything that needs to be improved in this plan.
place.”
"If there is any progress, I will contact you as soon as possible and we will keep in touch."
Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin nodded: "Of course."
Yangyang Games often cooperates with Outu Technology. The previous "Fitness Battle" and smart fitness clothes drying rack were produced after close communication, and the cooperation in this aspect has become very skilled.
Wang Xiaobin's plan was produced in a hurry, and there will definitely be some shortcomings. Changyou needs to consult some professionals and repeatedly consider the final state of the equipment before it can be completely finalized.
…
At the same time, Tenda Game Department is already developing "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation".
After two long months of accumulation, the design details of "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" have been very clear. Everyone knows what they want to do, so they get into the state very quickly.
Because it is a DLC, most of the game resources reuse scenes that already exist in the game and do not require additional production. In this way, the development time is greatly shortened.
According to Hu Xianbin's estimate, the new mechanism requested by Mr. Pei should be completed in one month, and it can be officially launched in two months.
As for what the Tenda Game Department will do after the DLC "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" is released?
I don’t know about this, but I can just ask Mr. Pei when the time comes.
Min Jingchao, on the other hand, is still carrying out the daily development and maintenance work of GOG as usual.
Hu Xianbin temporarily put down his work, came to Min Jingchao's workstation, pulled up a chair and sat down, then lowered his voice and said: "This time the selection of outstanding employees will be held on Friday, that is, tomorrow, you know, right?"
Min Jingchao nodded, somewhat confused: "I know."
Hu Xianbin said: "Then, you don't have any ideas?"
Min Jingchao was even more confused. He thought for a while and then said: "What should I...have in mind?"
Hu Xianbin sighed softly: "Do you need to say this? We are both in the high-risk group of the best employees!"
Min Jingchao suddenly woke up.
Anyone who sees this message can receive cash. Method: Follow the WeChat public account [Book Friends Base Camp].
Oh, that’s what it means!
His expression instantly became serious: "Yes! I have never thought about this before. When you say it like this, the problem is indeed very serious!"
Although being an outstanding employee is an honor and a reward, many people within Tenda, especially the person in charge, don’t really want this reward.
For example, Zhang Yuan, who was previously in charge of Moyu Internet Cafe and ROF installation business, and Chang You, who was in charge of Outu Technology.
Because the industry they are currently in is their favorite industry, but after getting the best employees, they must use their dream funds to go to another industry.
Zhang Yuan had no choice but to give up his favorite ROF installation, hand over Moyu Internet Cafe to Xiao Peng, and then take charge of the DGE e-sports club and Tenda's e-sports division.
Changyou, on the other hand, had too many thieves and took advantage of the loopholes. In fact, he still stayed at Outu Technology.
But the problem is that Mr. Pei said last time that taking advantage of the loopholes is not an example. People who get outstanding employees in the future cannot do this again.
Hu Xianbin and Min Jingchao are obviously high-risk groups for getting outstanding employees.
Hu Xianbin has been the chief designer in the core Tenda game department for a long time. "Mission and Choice" has also been a great success. On the premise that Huang Sibo has already won the Outstanding Employee Award once, he is the first to bear the brunt.
Min Jingchao has always been the person in charge of GOG. During this period, GOG's development has been smooth, while ioi has been deteriorating. This contribution cannot be ignored.
But both of them are obviously very satisfied with their current jobs and have no desire to get the Dream Fund to "open up wasteland".
Min Jingchao thought for a while and said, "But there is nothing we can do."
"This is the company's rule, and we can't make Mr. Pei change his mind."
"Chang You has taken advantage of a loophole before, and Mr. Pei has already closed this loophole."
"Unless... we can find a new way to exploit the loopholes."
Hu Xianbin lowered his voice: "I didn't think of a way to take advantage of the loopholes. But I thought of another way, and it is feasible to a certain extent. It is more reliable than finding loopholes in the rules."
Min Jingchao couldn't help but his eyes lit up: "Oh? Tell me quickly, what is the solution?"
Hu Xianbin put on an unpredictable expression: "Looking for...a scapegoat."
Min Jingchao: "Huh?"
Hu Xianbin looked around, for fear of being discovered: "It's actually very simple, we just need to find a way to let others get the first place as an outstanding employee, isn't that enough?"
"Think about it, who had the best chance of winning the second place as an outstanding employee?"
Min Jingchao suddenly realized: "Brother Bao!"
Hu Xianbin smiled and nodded: "That's right."
In terms of contribution, Hu Xianbin, Min Jingchao and Bao Xu all have the opportunity to compete for outstanding employees.
So, as long as Bao Xu is pushed to the first place, won't Hu Xianbin and Min Jingchao be safe?
Whether you get second place and travel, or third place, you don't have to leave the game department, how nice it is.
Hu Xianbin continued: "And, it's a win-win situation!"
"The two of us don't want to leave the game department, and Brother Bao doesn't want to travel. If we change it this way, Brother Bao will get the Dream Fund, and one of us will go traveling. Wouldn't it be perfect?"
Min Jingchao was silent for a moment and said: "It's not perfect. It would be perfect if we didn't hire outstanding employees and Brother Bao went on a trip."
“Brother Bao’s selection of outstanding employees without travel is soulless!”
Hu Xianbin nodded: "Okay, actually I think so too."
"Brother Bao doesn't travel, so he always feels like something is missing."
"As long as there are other suitable candidates, I will not consider Brother Bao."
"But the problem is that there is no suitable candidate now. If Brother Bao doesn't take the first place, then one of us will definitely leave the game department."
Min Jingchao agreed: "Hmm... well, it seems that in order to protect myself, I can only push Brother Bao out and top the bag."
"Then...how should we operate specifically?"
Hu Xianbin said: "This is very simple."
"Brother Bao has made great contributions to the snack market this time. Zhang Yahui even praised him during the TV interview. There will definitely be many people who will vote for him and hope that he will travel."
"However, everyone will definitely work hard to keep his number of votes in second place."
"We will find someone to ventilate the situation in advance and ask everyone not to vote yet."
"When Brother Bao is basically in second place, and the gap between him and you or me in first place is very small, all the tickets we have arranged in advance will be thrown at Brother Bao!"
"The gap is not big to begin with. Maybe it only takes a few dozen votes to turn things around and push Brother Bao to first place."
Min Jingchao nodded: "Okay, your method seems feasible!"
"The only problem is... it's a bit difficult to convince so many people to give up watching the traditional drama of 'Brother Bao's Travel'."
Hu Xianbin said: "Yes, this is the only difficulty in this plan. But relying on our friendship with the heads of other departments, we can play two more bitter cards and say how tired Brother Bao is now and how much he doesn't want to travel anymore.
, we should still be able to win some support.”
"It may not be possible. If the gap in the number of votes is too large, even if these votes are cast, it will not be equal. It will be embarrassing."
“But overall, it’s worth a try.”
After Min Jingchao thought for a moment, he nodded: "Indeed, it's worth a try!"
"If you fail, there's nothing you can do about it, but what if you succeed?"
"Let's work separately to convince as many people as possible to vote for Brother Bao!"
