Monday, October 8th.
The holiday is over and it’s the first day of normal work.
Pei Qian was sitting in his office, a little doubtful about life.
Eric and Zhao Xuming really didn’t do anything!
Is it because I'm on holiday that I didn't notice this problem at all? Or do I think this problem is not serious, so I'm too lazy to work overtime to fix it during the holiday?
This is a bit too much!
Pei Qian had already noticed the problem with the "Fantasy of the Gods" event at the beginning of the holiday, but this problem had nothing to do with Tengda. He could only hope that Eric and Zhao Xuming would give some help and seize the time.
Plug the loopholes.
Tenda does not work overtime, but when Longyu Group encounters this kind of problem, it must still work overtime, right?
As a result, there was absolutely no movement?
On the 3rd, Pei Qian felt that it might be because Longyu Group realized it later. After all, ioi's data should be pretty good these days, and there was no obvious decline. It was understandable that there was no response for the time being.
On the 5th, Pei Qian felt that the Longyu Group was probably aware of the problem, but it was difficult to think of a good countermeasure in a hurry. They must be working overtime to study the plan, and there would be no problem if they waited.
It was the 7th yesterday, the holidays were over, but there was still no movement!
Pei Qian was very confused, something was wrong?
Seeing that GOG's data has obviously started to rise against the trend, and this matter has been widely spread on the Internet, even if Eric and Zhao Xuming are blind, they must have heard about it, right?
As a result, I have been working normally until today, and ioi has not issued any announcement in response to this matter.
It seemed as if nothing had happened, and there seemed to be no problems with the activity at all, and the players' behavior was completely acquiesced.
This is very confusing.
It is understandable that other major regions around the world are slower to respond. After all, there are still many ioi player groups in these regions. This activity itself is biased towards ioi, and the data fluctuations will not be so obvious. This vulnerability is not considered serious.
You can't afford to change activities, issue announcements, or even break the contract just for such a loophole, and slap yourself in the face.
But the national uniform is different.
There were not many players left, and the fish pond was bombarded by GOG players. The most die-hard players of ioi were finally tempted to register an account on GOG...
Can you still sit here?
Pei Qian could hardly sit still.
Therefore, Pei Qian was doubting life in the office and had no idea what Eric and Zhao Xuming were doing.
I really wanted to call and ask, but I was afraid that Eric would misunderstand.
Making a phone call at this juncture will inevitably make people feel that it is mocking and trying to make a fool of oneself...
So Pei Qian still endured the fight.
This event is not over yet. Although the long holiday period is its peak period, in order to make the diversion effect more sustainable, ioi has set the event time to two weeks, which means that until the end of this week, many players
Only then can you get the final reward.
This was originally intended to allow GOG players to develop the habit of going online to ioi to play games every day, so as to achieve better traffic diversion effects.
But looking at it now... I'm afraid it's hard to say what the outcome will be.
Pei Qian doesn't have any good solution, he can only take it one step at a time.
After all, Mr. Pei is also very busy and has a lot of work at hand. He can't just do nothing every day and just stare at the activities of ioi and wonder about it, right?
I have already cooperated with you so much. If you still mess up the matter, then Mr. Pei can only say: There is no hope, just wait to die!
Putting aside the "Fantasy of the Gods" activities for the time being, Pei Qian calmed down and then checked the official data of "Return to the Shore".
finally!
The sales volume of "Return to the Shore" dropped very hard last month, and it happened to be stuck at the critical value that the system can stipulate: within one-fifth of the revenue in the month after its release!
"Okay, okay, the most basic goal has finally been achieved."
Pei Qian couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Originally, the success rate of this plan was quite high. "Eternal Falling into Reincarnation" attracted the attention of players. Many players who had never played it and were planning to buy "Return to the Shore" also chose to wait and see, temporarily giving up purchasing "Return to the Shore".
》 idea, I plan to buy "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" first to experience it. After all, there is a huge gap in the price between the two.
Unexpectedly, Qiao Laoshi's interpretation made "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" and "Return to the Shore" a perfect combination!
Anyway, as soon as words like "two sides in one body" and "perfect DLC" come out, players feel that buying only "Eternal Reincarnation" without buying "Return to the Shore" is simply a waste of resources.
So in the last week of last month, the sales of "Return to the Shore" surged again, which made Pei Qian tremble in his heart.
Fortunately, now that the results have come out, Pei Qian was almost on the verge of falling into an abyss of eternal destruction.
If the sales volume did not drop last month, it is unlikely that it will drop this month. If we want to free "Return to the Shore" again, I am afraid that it will be a long way off, and I don't know what year or month it will have to wait.
Of course, now that we want to make "Return to the Shore" free, we can't simply change the price and be done.
On the one hand, you have to submit corresponding applications to the official platform, and on the other hand, you also have to do a good job of appeasing players.
It is easy to pass the application for free. After all, the first goal of the official platform is not to make money but to promote the healthy development of the entire industry. A high-quality game will naturally be more conducive to promotion after it is free.
The key is to appease players.
A lot of players were just fooled by Mr. Qiao. They bought "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" and "Return to the Shore" as a package. However, within two days of purchasing, "Return to the Shore" was free. Who can resist this?
As a reasonable person, Pei Qian must find ways to return the money and never take more money from the players!
After roughly thinking of a direction, Pei Qian was going to call Yu Fei to his office to briefly talk about this issue.
But after thinking about it, he decided to go to the game department by himself.
Because he was looking for Yu Fei for more than just this.
…
A few minutes later, Yu Fei followed Mr. Pei into the conference room.
During this period, Yu Fei had been counting the days to figure out when Hu Xianbin would come back.
Seeing that another month has passed, things at the special training base should have come to an end. Even if Hu Xianbin needs to go home to clean up and rest for a few days, he should be back, right?
Of course, during this long holiday, those in charge of the special training class are also on vacation, and you can see them bubbling up in the internal groups of the people in charge.
But I don’t know why, but all the people in charge who participated in the special training class were very secretive about this special training, and basically would not reveal any critical information, and nothing could be found out.
Yu Fei thought for a while, and since no one wanted to say more, it was better not to ask anymore.
Anyway, when Hu Xianbin comes back from the special training and handover the work, it won't be too late to ask a few questions sideways.
During this period, Yu Fei has been carefully understanding the knowledge of game design, reading design drafts, and arranging the follow-up matters for "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation".
For example, fix bugs, adjust game content, refine plot content, etc.
It's not a particularly complicated job, so there haven't been any problems.
Yu Fei was quite stressed at the beginning, but now that he feels that he is leaving soon, the pressure naturally disappears.
I wonder what happened when Mr. Pei came to see me today?
Is it to express recognition for the work that he has done for two months and to see him off by the way?
Well, it's possible.
After all, Mr. Pei is famous for his human touch. When seeing him off, he took himself and the entire game department to an unknown restaurant for a big meal. This seemed like something Mr. Pei would do.
Or maybe arrange a simple small job for yourself?
After all, it is not certain when Hu Xianbin will come back, and the work in the game department cannot stop immediately. He still has to stand up for the last shift.
Yu Fei thought this and sat down opposite Mr. Pei.
Pei Qian organized his thoughts and said, "I have two things to leave to you."
"The first thing is that "Return to the Shore" is free."
"This month, the main content of "Return to the Shore" will be free, but this matter needs to be discussed with the staff of the official game platform to go through a process."
"You don't need to do it yourself. You just assign the tasks to your subordinates and keep an eye on the progress."
"Of course, considering that a group of players have just purchased "Return to the Shore", we should also provide certain compensation to these players."
“My idea is to compensate players based on the time of purchase. If you just bought it this month, you will get a full refund; if you bought it last month, you will get a 80% refund; if you bought it in August, you will get a half refund; if you bought it in July, you will get a refund.
A quarter of the money."
Chapter completed!
