Chapter 1175 Concealing the relationship with Tenda
(The name of the platform was changed to Chaolu Game Platform. I really didn’t expect that the four words Hua Zhi and Lu Bing, Hua Hua, Rouge, Sculpture, Ice, could be so distorted...)
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more he felt that Tang Yishu was very suitable.
I can’t wait to open the game platform now and lose money!
However, opening a game platform is not that simple. You have to apply for the corresponding qualifications from the official, have a start-up capital, rent a server, and create the operating system program for the official platform...
All in all, some preparation work is still required.
But for Tenda now, these are problems that can be easily solved.
Professional things can be done by professional people. What Tenda is most in need of is professional talents in this area. Just randomly select some people from various departments to serve as Tang Yishu's tools to ensure that this game platform can run normally.
.
The only difficulty is how to hide this matter as much as possible so that no one knows about the relationship between Chaolu Gaming Platform and Tenda.
Thinking of this, Pei Qian sent a message to Tang Yishu and called her to the office.
Not long after, Tang Yishu knocked on the door gently: "Senior, are you looking for me?"
Seeing Tang Yishu, Pei Qian couldn't help but smile.
"Come, sit down first."
Xiao Tang, this big killer, has not been used for a long time. The main reason is that Pei Qian wants to put her on Tenda Games to maximize its effectiveness.
Because the game projects of Tenda Game Department are often the ones with the highest investment and the highest risk of making money, having Tang Yishu in charge can affect the two crucial projects of "Mission and Decision" and GOG at the same time.
Therefore, Pei Qian has tried his best to avoid sending her out for more than half a year, just hoping to delay "Mission and Choice" and GOG.
Now it seems that the results are not very significant.
Of course, it is also possible that it has already had an effect, but Pei Qian did not see it.
Although "Mission and Choice" has become popular, GOG has been developing smoothly. On the surface, it seems that Tang Yishu has not played any role, but maybe... without Tang Yishu, these two projects would be even more popular?
I have to say that this is still a possibility.
Now that "Mission and Choice" is officially released, everything has been settled, and it's time for Tang Yishu to play a role in a more critical place.
"I'm going to transfer you to another position."
"Tengda is going to open a new game platform recently, how about you work there?"
Tang Yishu's first reaction was to shake her head: "No, senior, I don't know anything about games."
Pei Qian smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter. You don't need to know anything about games for this job."
"With your many years of experience in Tengda, you should be qualified for this job."
"Even if you encounter some small problems, you can still explore slowly and learn slowly."
Tang Yishu thought for a while and nodded: "Okay, senior, then I will go there for an internship with a learning attitude. Who is my immediate superior?"
Pei Qian pointed at himself: "Me."
"Ah?" Tang Yishu was a little confused, "I mean, when I go to intern there, shouldn't I be working under the person in charge of the game platform? Who is the person in charge?"
Pei Qian pointed at her: "You."
Tang Yishu's face was full of disbelief: "Me? Didn't I go for an internship?"
Pei Qian shook his head: "Who said you were going to do an internship? You were asked to be the person in charge there from the beginning."
Tang Yishu's face turned red, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "No, senior, how can I be the person in charge? I don't know anything, and I'm only a sophomore!"
Pei Qian didn't take it seriously: "What's wrong with sophomore year?"
"When I was a sophomore, I was already managing hundreds of Tenda employees and making several games."
Tang Yishu hurriedly said: "How can I compare with my seniors? I really don't know anything about games. Besides, I still have study tasks..."
Pei Qian said in his heart: Haha, do you think I know everything about games?
If I understand, as for making one popular one?
Besides, it’s just because you don’t understand that I’m looking for you!
He had already expected that Tang Yishu would refuse, so Pei Qian had already prepared his words in advance: "Believe me, you will be absolutely fine."
"Everyone who goes out to Tengda can stand alone!"
"What's more, this job is not as difficult as you think. It's actually very simple."
"I will assign some employees to help you. If you don't understand anything, just ask them directly. Besides, if you really can't figure it out, just come to me. There's nothing to worry about."
"As for your study tasks..."
"This job won't be very busy. You can just take some time to deal with it. Besides, for a top student like you, even if you study less than two hours a day, it won't make any difference whether you should get a scholarship or not."
Tang Yishu pinched her fingers and struggled for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, senior, I'll give it a try."
"But I have a request. Can I choose someone familiar to go with me? If that doesn't work, I can ask her to take over."
Pei Qian nodded: "No problem."
He said it was no problem, but what Pei Qian was thinking in his heart was that it was absolutely impossible to succeed you.
How can I rest assured that someone else is the person in charge of this gaming platform?
However, Pei Qian also knows that the success rate of forcing a duck to be put on the shelves is not high, so Xiao Tang's requirements should be met as much as possible.
Anyway, let's trick her into being the person in charge first, and then it will be difficult to get off the ship.
"Then let me briefly talk about the situation of this game platform, and you can take note of it."
Tang Yishu said quickly: "Wait a moment, senior, I'll get a notebook."
She quickly stood up and left the office, and returned a moment later with a notebook.
Pei Qian nodded. Well, a good memory is not as good as a bad writing. It is always good to remember something clearly.
Although this gaming platform is quite casual, some basic rules still need to be explained clearly to Xiao Tang.
These regulations can ensure that gaming platforms hide their secrets for longer and burn more money.
"First, we need to register a new company. Tenda will invest through Dream Venture Capital, accounting for 70% of the shares. The remaining 30% of the shares will be jointly held by all key employees of the new company."
"Do not disclose the relationship between this company and Tenda to the outside world, and do not have any relationship with Tenda's various industries."
"For example, don't list Tenda's games, don't go on the TPDb website, don't do joint promotions with Tenda's peripheral industries, etc."
“Not just you, but all employees of the platform must keep this in mind.”
"As for why...don't ask now, you will understand later."
Pei Qian also thought for a long time about how to separate the connection between New Industries and Tengda.
Tenda's funds will definitely go into these industries.
If it is a wholly-owned subsidiary, it is easier to be exposed, but what if it is a company invested by Yuanmeng Venture Capital?
Then it’s relatively easy to hide!
For example, Che Rong’s Xingniao Fitness and other companies invested by Yuanmeng Venture Capital... most people would not regard them as Tenda series.
After all, Yuanmeng Venture Capital is not selective at all in its investments. There are too many companies it invests in, and there are also companies with mediocre performance.
So, wouldn’t it be possible to greatly reduce the risk of discovery by hiding new industries in companies invested by Yuanmeng Venture Capital?
If all employees are deliberately told to keep it secret, just like Qiu Hong's desperate plan, then the possibility of discovery will be further reduced.
The TPDb website is a hidden danger. After all, it has an employee entrance, and all departments of Tenda can be found on it. But if it is not a wholly-owned subsidiary, it will not appear on the TPDb website.
There is currently no website similar to Tianyancha. It would be difficult for ordinary netizens to find out the relationship between Chaolu Gaming Platform and Tenda Group without digging deeper.
Tang Yishu didn't ask any more questions, lowered her head and recorded it in a small notebook.
Pei Qian continued: "There is also the issue of game sharing and trial period..."
To put it simply, the games on the shelves are divided 50-50, and all games must go through a one-week trial period. After the trial period, they will be removed from the shelves and refunded.
Tang Yishu stopped halfway through the memorization.
"Senior, I don't quite understand here."
"The 50-50 split is easy to understand, and the probation period is also easy to understand."
"But if the trial period has not expired, does it mean that the player has no games to play and can only get half of the refund?"
Pei Qian shook his head: "Of course not."
"The game has a refund time limit. If the player plays the game and does not exceed the refund time limit, for example, only plays for two hours, then the normal refund process will be followed and a full refund will be given."
"But if the refund time limit is exceeded, it means that the player has already experienced the fun of the game and has even experienced the most interesting part of the game. It would definitely be unfair to the manufacturer to issue a full refund at this time."
"So, half of the money goes to the players and half to the manufacturers, which means: although the game is of poor quality and will be removed from the shelves, players can buy it at half price and keep it in their own game library. In this way, players and manufacturers
It won’t be a big loss.”
No matter who you give it to, you can’t leave it to your own platform.
If it were all given to players, it would be too attractive to players; if it was all given to manufacturers, it would be very attractive to manufacturers, and the effect of persuading them to quit would not be obvious. Therefore, Pei Qian decided to take it apart and cut half of it on one side, so that he could both persuade them to quit.
Players who quit are trying to persuade manufacturers to quit.
Tang Yishu nodded, indicating that she understood.
But soon, she raised a new question.
"But in this case, if players give a no recommendation to all games and remove all trial period games, wouldn't that mean they can always buy games at half price?"
Pei Qian almost laughed out loud.
Is there such a good thing?
You are too optimistic. I don’t even dare to think about such a thing!
Obviously, Xiao Tang is still too naive and doesn't quite understand the rules here.
Pei Qian explained: "Such people definitely exist, but they will not be the mainstream of the player group."
"If you consider this relatively extreme situation, where players, in order to buy an excellent game at half price, leave crazy negative reviews during the trial period and have it removed from the shelves. Then the problem that arises from this is: this game will no longer be available on our platform.
If there are any updates on the game, there will be no subsequent DLC and other content; moreover, future players who want to buy this game will not be able to buy it."
“So, if you think a game is excellent and you want to play it for a long time, then it’s best not to take it off the shelves; if you think a game is not good, you won’t lose anything if you take it off the shelves, then
You can vote to take it off the shelves.”
"We will not induce players to make choices. Players make their own choices and bear the consequences."
"Most players can still distinguish between immediate interests and long-term interests."
