Racing games are just games, and their connection with reality is relatively weak. The driving experience between the two is hugely different, and can even be said to have completely different rules.
Not to mention that many racing games have modification systems. You can modify the vehicles according to your own preferences. After the modifications are completed, all the values of the vehicles are maxed out, and the differences between the vehicles will be even smaller.
This cannot be blamed on those racing games. After all, the ultimate goal of all racing games is to allow players to pursue the fastest extreme speed. Few games limit the driving speed in the game to the reality like "Safe and Civilized Driving"
It's exactly the same, and players are not allowed to collide with vehicles at will.
This is due to a difference in gameplay, rather than a problem of design level or production level.
But it does give players a completely different feeling when playing.
To sum up, when players play "Safe and Civilized Driving", their perception of the drivability and safety of a certain type of vehicle is much higher than that of other racing games, and slightly higher than that of other simulations.
Driving games.
There is no way, it is all forced by the strict game mechanism.
This feeling does not entirely come from the game engine and game rules of "Safe and Civilized Driving", but a large part of the reason comes from psychological factors.
Since what players experience in "Safe and Civilized Driving" is closer to the real-life driving experience, their attention and willingness to discuss the safety and controllability of various models will naturally be much higher.
for other games.
Coupled with the huge popularity caused by "Safe and Civilized Driving" on the Internet, due to the linkage with IIAS and the impact of the Passat collision, the attention of several domestically produced cars has increased unprecedentedly.
In fact, with the rapid development of domestic manufacturing, domestically produced cars have achieved rapid development.
Although there is still a certain gap between first-class foreign brands in terms of technological accumulation, technical foundation and some high-precision technologies, "domestic" is no longer synonymous with "shoddy" as it used to be.
The gap should be faced squarely, but there is no need to belittle oneself.
Moreover, joint venture cars have been reduced in domestic configurations time and time again. How to explain this?
Do domestic companies that have joint ventures with foreign companies have bad intentions?
Of course not.
In the final analysis, foreign companies have the final say in this kind of thing. It is because foreign companies do not respect domestic consumers and treat domestic consumers as second-class people. Leeks do not serve them with the proper attitude towards God.
Instead, there is a magical sense of arrogance and superiority.
This is a problem left over from history, because the domestic industrial industry was underdeveloped in the past, and some unscrupulous companies cheated on subsidies and did not pay attention to quality, which ruined the reputation. Therefore, domestic consumers have developed a belief that "foreign products are of good quality."
, is the inertial thinking of being advanced and having a high standard.
All we can say is that this is a historical issue that should be reversed, but it cannot be accomplished overnight.
It takes batches of down-to-earth companies and high-quality products one after another to reverse this inertial thinking.
This is the case in the mobile phone industry. From the dominance of foreign brands to the rise of domestic brands, it has gone through such a process.
Even if domestic mobile phone brands compete fiercely in the internal market and are at odds with each other, it has to be admitted that the domestic mobile phone industry has been able to compete with top foreign brands. In the foreseeable future, domestic mobile phone brands will compete with each other.
The brand will continue to improve until it is completely surpassed.
The domestic car manufacturing industry will also go through such an inevitable process, and the arrival of the new energy era will inevitably accelerate this process, allowing some outstanding domestic car companies to overtake in corners.
The most problematic issues that trouble those excellent car companies now are word-of-mouth, publicity, and trust!
After all, a car, unlike a mobile phone, is not a gadget that costs several thousand yuan, but can easily cost two to three hundred thousand yuan, and it is directly related to people's life safety.
With a mobile phone costing several thousand yuan, many people will buy a cool new product out of curiosity to play with. As long as it doesn’t explode, has weak performance, and a poor system, it’s not a big problem. At most, they can buy it online.
A few curse words are enough.
But few people would buy a car worth 300,000 to 400,000 yuan to play with out of curiosity.
When poor people buy cars, they must be very selective, while when rich people buy cars for fun, they often buy luxury cars of well-known brands.
If domestic new energy vehicles want to attract customers, the only way to go is low prices.
At this time, for those domestic car companies that are more confident in their own products, how to prove to consumers that their products are safe and trustworthy has become the biggest problem.
Promote it yourself?
Some people say that you emphasize marketing over quality and spend all your money on advertising. This is self-promotion and is not worthy of belief.
Ask someone else to review?
Some people say that you gave money to reviewers, which has no credibility.
All consumers' recognition of a brand takes a long time to accumulate and cannot be established in just six months or a year.
It would be even worse if this car company happened to have a few negative issues before.
One way is to ask IIAS to do a crash test, but on the one hand, not many people except car enthusiasts pay attention to it. On the other hand, the crash test can only prove safety and cannot prove anything else.
This simply fails to meet the requirements of marketing propaganda.
Therefore, the best way for these car companies is to cooperate with brands that consumers trust!
This is equivalent to using these excellent brands to endorse their own quality. Consumers who trust a certain brand will naturally have a good impression of the cooperative model. Not to mention mindless support, at least they will be interested in it and want to know more about it.
It's enough to understand and test drive it.
Take the first step to break the ice first, and the rest will become easier and easier.
Therefore, it is not surprising that these car companies want to cooperate with Tenda.
On the one hand, Tenda is currently the most trusted brand among domestic players and consumers, and it can even be said that it is one of the most trusted brands.
In the Sloth Apartment project, Tenda cooperated with various furniture manufacturers and established a supervision and spot check mechanism, which has proven that Tenda's cooperation and linkage with other enterprises is responsible and trustworthy.
Tenda's success across multiple fields has convinced many people that there is no problem of "forced crossover" in Tenda.
On the other hand, "Safe and Civilized Driving" has a unique advantage, which is that it provides players with a relatively simple but infinitely low-cost test drive platform.
There are differences between games and reality, that’s for sure. Cars that are easy to drive in the game may not be as easy to drive in reality, and some elements such as comfort and interior texture cannot be displayed in the game.
But most of the cars that are difficult to drive in the game are also difficult to drive in reality...
Players who drive a certain car in the game will naturally develop a favorable impression of it, and may think more about it when buying a car in real life.
There is no need to worry about the game being too misleading. Anyway, before consumers decide to buy a car, they will definitely go back to the physical store for a test drive.
"Think more about it" is the effect these car companies have tried their best and spent huge sums of money to achieve.
In short, many car companies have come to think of it. As long as the quality is excellent, why not cooperate with "Safe and Civilized Driving"? It is a win-win situation!
Therefore, many car companies that had previously rejected the game because the car damage in the game was too serious have come back. Even some car companies that Ye Zhizhou had not approached before expressed their desire to cooperate.
Pei Qian was simply stunned.
Is this good enough?
He didn't originally intend for "Safe and Civilized Driving" to have many real-life vehicle brand licenses, because everyone knows that the more real-life vehicle brand licenses a racing game has, the more popular the game will be!
Although the licensing fee can cost money, compared with the revenue from the game, the licensing fee is nothing. You can earn it back quickly.
No, absolutely unacceptable!
If the real-life brands in "Safe and Civilized Driving" are authorized more and more, and the game becomes more and more popular, the money will definitely be made more and more!
Pei Qian's expression was serious: "If you don't want to authorize, don't authorize, but if you want to authorize, you can authorize? How can there be such a good thing!"
"The regulations have been changed! Not only do we not pay a penny in licensing fees, but we also require the car companies to pay us platform fees in return!"
"We will charge the licensing fee as discussed before, but we don't pay it to them, they pay it to us."
"In addition, car companies also give us prototype cars to complete crash tests and structural disassembly and research. What if a certain IIAS collision in the future is inaccurate? Is the data not rich enough?"
"And we have to spend more money to buy cars from the market for testing to prevent the prototype cars they send us for testing from being defective."
"Besides that, we refuse to accept any suggestions or interference. If car companies are not satisfied with the vehicle performance and safety performance in the game, then just hold it in! If you are not satisfied, we will not refund their money!"
"If they can accept all our conditions, then yes, if not, then we'll break up."
Pei Qian's attitude is very determined.
He thought, with such stringent conditions, no more fake car companies would come over to ask for cooperation, right?
In fact, after saying so much, I just want to tactfully dissuade these car companies: Just sell your cars and make money, and don't always try to take my ideas.
I'm already in a mess, and you guys come over to make me more messy. Is this appropriate? This is inappropriate.
We should all live our own lives, which is good for each other.
Ye Zhizhou was stunned for a moment: "Ah this..."
Indeed, Tenda was rejected by the other party when they were talking about authorization before, but now the other party comes to visit, and Tenda refuses to accept it, and even asks for money in return. No matter how you look at it, it looks a bit like a child's anger...
What's more, this is no longer just a price increase, it even puts forward some requirements that may seem unreasonable to the outside world.
As an employee of Tengda, Ye Zhizhou certainly has unconditional trust in his own company and Mr. Pei, but it is hard to say how other companies will view this matter.
He was not too embarrassed to say it directly. Mr. Pei's statement was a bit like a lion opening his mouth!
But as a Tengda leader, he quickly began to correct his views.
"Mr. Pei is definitely not a person who is motivated by impulse, nor is he someone who only cares about immediate interests and does not care about long-term interests."
"In other words, Mr. Pei's request must have a deeper meaning, and we need to study it carefully before we can draw a conclusion..."
Ye Zhizhou was not able to understand the deeper meaning of this at the first time, but he nodded immediately: "Okay, Mr. Pei, let's do this."
Pei Qian nodded, very satisfied with the obedience and execution ability of the current people in charge of Tengda.
"Okay, let's do this first."
Seeing the situation in the warehouse, Pei Qian felt bored.
You came all the way and only saw safe and civilized driving simulators on sale?
unlucky!
Pei Qian gave Ye Zhizhou a few more words and turned to leave.
