Pei Qian roughly summarized the current situation:
The DLC feedback for several games has been good. Although "Sea Fortress" has received some criticism, a patch has been updated in the past two days, and an account credit system has been established to purchase new epic weapons in batches according to different credit levels.
.
There are 500 new epic weapons released every month, and players' credit ratings are divided into 3 levels.
The evaluation criteria for levels are multi-dimensional. In short, based on the player's activity level and contribution to the game, all these factors are quantified into a specific credit value, and then the players are divided into three levels.
The epic weapons released every month will be snapped up in three batches.
Level 3 players are the first batch to snap up, limited to 100 pieces; level 2 players are snapping up the second batch, also limited to 100 pieces; level 1 players are the last to snap up the remaining 300 pieces.
Players of the same level will also have very slight differences in the probability of grabbing it during the rush purchase. Every increase in the credit value will slightly increase the probability of grabbing it.
The ratio of the number of players in the three levels is about 1:2:10. The higher the level, the higher the probability of buying weapons.
For some new players with very low credit levels, there is no chance of grabbing them, but the weight will be much lower.
In addition, there are also level 0 accounts in the game. For example, scalpers only create accounts for grabbing weapons and don’t play them at all, so they are not qualified to snap up weapons at all.
After the introduction of this credit system, the influence of scalpers has been greatly reduced.
It is impossible to completely eliminate the phenomenon of reselling accounts, and many players will even sell their level 2 and level 3 accounts at high prices. However, it is no longer possible for scalpers to make a lot of money just by relying on their hand speed.
The value of the account on the trading platform will fluctuate, but it will definitely gradually stabilize.
The response from players has been very good. Although many people are still dissatisfied with the limit, the voices of dissatisfaction have been reduced a lot.
After all, on the premise that the purchase limit cannot be changed, this way of purchasing is at least fair.
On the other side of Yangyang Games, the losses are still stable.
Ye Zhizhou and the others have completed the tasks requested by Pei Qian. Although the side effect is that the reputation of the game has been reversed, without the recharge from the rich, the game's revenue has plummeted, and it is impossible to generate profits in the short term.
On the Moyu Internet Cafe side, although the commission model for singers has increased the sales of alcohol, it still cannot cover operating costs, and the five Moyu Internet Cafes are losing money together.
It can be said that Feihuang Studio basically lost everything. It spent all the money it earned and still owed some money. The hole was filled by Tenda.
Moyu Takeaway is also very deserted at the moment, and basically focuses on delivering work meals to Tenda employees. Due to the small number of food orders, the chefs and food delivery people they maintain are basically idle and are constantly losing money.
With so many loss-making projects, it was difficult to offset the profits of several games.
Although this cycle is only two months, it is a bit thrilling for Pei Qian.
First, the appearance of Chen Lei almost made Moyu Internet Cafe turn a profit. Fortunately, Pei Qian discovered it in time and stopped the loss in time;
Lin Wan waived a large amount of rent for Tengda, which was a heavy blow to Pei Qian, but fortunately, the loss was still within the acceptable range.
Moreover, the mole was caught and a more serious situation was avoided in the future.
Pei Qian took out a small notebook and wrote and drew in it with a serious face, constantly calculating.
Although the system funds are currently showing a loss, a sum of money will be credited to several games on the 28th, which is the last Monday before settlement.
Pei Qian is currently unable to make a good estimate of how much the money will be. After all, no one can tell what will happen within this week.
Roughly estimate a value based on the data in the game backend, spend as much as you can, and try to create losses.
Although the situation is still not too optimistic, fortunately it is not hopeless either.
…
Another corner of the Internet cafe.
Li Shi drank coffee while observing Pei Qian.
"Moyu Internet Cafe is actually Tengda's industry, and the boss is so young."
"I really didn't expect that."
As an old customer of Moyu Internet Cafe, Li Shi often came to Moyu Internet Cafe. He had occasionally met Pei Qian before, but he did not realize that this young man was the boss behind the Internet cafe.
But after some investigations in the past few days, Li Shi already knew the relationship between Moyu Internet Cafe and Tengda. From the attitudes of Ma Yang and Zhang Yuan towards Pei Qian, he determined that this was the mysterious Tengda boss.
Li Shi was originally a little worried about whether Pei Qian was a rich second generation and whether he had a special background, but after a little investigation, he found no similar signs.
Based on the information he currently has, Li Shi infers that Pei Qian probably started his career by playing games. He had too much money to spend and had nowhere to spend it, so he was a little bloated, so he rashly entered the field of Internet cafes.
In this way, Li Shi became more confident.
Young people are more likely to be fooled.
Mr. Pei may be professional and a good player in gaming, but that may not necessarily be true in business.
At this time, Mr. Pei was holding a small notebook and writing and drawing in a very unprofessional manner.
What is this doing?
Well, most of them are calculating the profit and loss of Internet cafes.
Judging from his solemn expression, it is obvious that he is very dissatisfied with the continuous loss situation of the Internet cafe, and he has not come up with a good solution.
Maybe, you can try to discuss cooperation with him in advance?
Li Shi took another sip of coffee, and there were some changes in his previous plan.
He had long been interested in investing in an Internet cafe, but he was worried that the boss behind the Internet cafe would not accept it, so he wanted to wait for the Internet cafe to make another loss.
Originally, Li Shi thought this process might last a few weeks or a month or two, but now it seems that it doesn't take that long.
Now that the boss is in trouble, he might be able to take action now.
If you keep waiting, you may miss the opportunity.
If the boss gets hot-headed and sells the Internet cafe to someone else, wouldn't it be a huge loss?
Thinking of this, Li Shi straightened his collar a little, got up and left, going outside to make a phone call.
As the boss of an investment company, Li Shi could not go directly to Pei Qian himself, as this would seem too hasty and childish.
It would be more reasonable to directly ask your subordinates to conduct business contacts, express their intention to invest in Moyu Internet Cafe, and then choose a formal occasion for the interview.
In fact, Li Shi found most of his investment projects by himself.
Founders of various companies would come to Li Shi with detailed information, begging him to invest in their projects, while Li Shi would quickly browse and filter out most of them, leaving only a small part that he was truly satisfied with.
Things like Moyu Internet Cafe are accidental situations.
Li Shi lit up a cigarette silently outside the Moyu Internet Cafe, waiting for good news from his subordinates.
…
Pei Qian looked at the ghostly drawings on the small book and made a rough calculation. He felt that there was still hope for a loss of 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.
The premise is to never make any mistakes.
If there is another unexpected amount of funds coming into the account, it will be very stiff.
After finishing the calculation, Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief. This period of time was finally not in vain, and he saw the dawn of victory!
Just as I relaxed, the phone rang.
Pei Qian took a look and saw that it was Assistant Xin calling.
"Mr. Pei, Fuhui Capital found us and said it hopes to invest..."
Pei Qian: "Refuse."
Assistant Xin: "It's not investing in Tengda, it's investing in Moyu Internet Cafe, and Fuhui Capital is a pretty good venture capital company..."
Pei Qian: "Refuse."
Assistant Xin: "Okay."
Pei Qian hung up the phone neatly.
Invest in Moyu Internet Cafe?
Don't make trouble, I am just an industry with stable losses, and if you invest another sum of money in me, aren't you messing with me?
Really, who is messing with me at this critical moment of settlement!
…
At the entrance of the Internet cafe, Li Shi was smoking leisurely, waiting for news about his subordinates.
According to the general script, the other party will definitely agree happily. The two parties will arrange a time to meet. At the negotiation table, Li Shi will use his rich investment experience to quickly convince the other party to accept the investment...
Before I finished smoking, the phone rang.
"Mr. Li, the other party refused."
Li Shi was stunned and didn't even know what to say for a moment.
Are you not even going to give me a chance to meet you?
