Qiao Liang was startled, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the black clothes that suddenly appeared. However, at the same time, the entire mirror suddenly shattered with a "snap"!
This time Qiao Liang was really frightened. He even leaned back involuntarily and almost fell onto the bed behind him along with the chair.
When I looked at the screen again, the mirror inside had been broken, revealing the darkness behind the mirror.
A line of bright red words appeared in the lower right corner, 10:00.
This line of bloody words quickly changed to 9:59, which seemed to mean that the game could not be played again until ten minutes later.
Qiao Liang was slightly frightened, but quickly calmed down.
"It seems that this step is a pure test of psychological quality. The eyeballs must be stared at the center of the mirror without moving, otherwise it will fail immediately..."
"Okay, practice hard and try to succeed in ten minutes!"
Qiao Liang was instantly full of motivation, because he realized that as long as he passed this test, all the puzzles set by Mr. Pei should be solved successfully!
…
An hour later.
Qiao Liang stared at himself in the mirror, while a ghost floating in the air, covered in blood, had already stretched out his bloody hand, and seemed to be about to touch his neck...
Qiao Liang felt his heart beating rapidly, but he still gritted his teeth and stared at his own eyes in the mirror, forcing his eyeballs to remain motionless with his will.
The terrifying ghost was always wandering around in the mirror, constantly using various behaviors to try to attract Qiao Liang's attention.
Finally, it seemed to have completely lost its patience, and suddenly came to the center of the screen, opened its bloody mouth, and screamed at Qiao Liang!
Qiao Liang was smart enough not to turn on the stereo, so he couldn't hear the sound, but just the impactful scene that suddenly appeared in front of the screen was enough to make his heart beat faster!
But then, a vortex suddenly appeared in the mirror, sucking the ghost in!
The ghost seemed to be struggling continuously, but to no avail and quickly disappeared in the mirror.
And a line of blood words appeared on the mirror: "Congratulations, you are the first guest of the Terror Hotel!"
After a random click of the mouse, the program exited, and the purchase button that had been dark on the page of "Bequiet" also lit up, which meant that Qiao Liang could finally spend money to buy the game!
Qiao Liang was so moved that her eyes filled with tears.
It’s not easy!
Is it difficult to buy a game these days?
But it's all worth it, he is the number one player of "Bequiet" after all!
“Share this news with everyone immediately!”
Qiao Liang opened the fan group and excitedly told the fans about the solution to the last step of the puzzle.
…
At the same time, Pei Qian was silent in the office for a long time and slowly uttered two words.
"Nima..."
Looking at the eye-catching 1 on the "Bequiet" purchase number in the background, Pei Qian felt a little chilled.
It was still untied...
The puzzle that I thought would last for a month only lasted until the 11th, not even half a month!
"Hey, the previous estimate was still a bit too optimistic. It is really impossible to trap players for a month with a puzzle of this difficulty."
"But it's not useless at all. It's okay, okay."
Pei Qian knew very well that since the first buyer had appeared, it meant that the mystery had been completely solved. As long as these people shared their experiences, more and more people would receive invitations and obtain
Buying opportunity.
But even so, there are still barriers to purchase!
In the background, Pei Qian set the prices of the two games "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Maker" to "free", and then silently paid attention to the subsequent changes in sales.
His series of operations has already been the optimal solution found under the strict restrictions of the system.
In layman's terms, the difficulty for everyone to solve puzzles is different from the threshold difficulty and restrictions for everyone to buy the game.
All players participate in finding clues, solving puzzles, etc. in various games. Once someone solves this step, everyone can continue to study the next step, and the difficulty can naturally be set higher.
After knowing how to solve the puzzle, there is still a purchase threshold for the game itself.
Players must drive in "Lonely Desert Highway" for a while, then personally go to "Game Maker" to get the ending of "losing all their money", and then go to the tpdb website to search for "Fear Hostel", enter their account password, and obtain
The dynamic code is entered into the blood fingerprint of the game, and finally the eye-catching mirror challenge is completed to purchase the game.
This is the highest threshold allowed by the system and cannot be higher.
Of course, Pei Qian has nothing to be dissatisfied with. This threshold can already help him filter out a large number of players.
And Pei Qian has made the "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Producer" free of charge. On the surface, it is to create convenient conditions for players, but in fact, it is to make less money.
Pei Qian discovered that the system now allows games to be completely free, but the conditions required are relatively harsh.
Must be a single player game;
It must have been officially on sale for more than 10 months;
The previous month's revenue must have fallen to within one-fifth of the next month's revenue.
These three conditions must be met at the same time before the system allows this game to be free.
"Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Maker" just meet this condition, so Pei Qian can change them to free.
As for online games like "Sea Fortress", don't even think about it.
Even if "Back to the Shore" is released 10 months after its release, it will be very difficult for its revenue to drop to one-fifth of the revenue in the month after its release, because this game is relatively playable and has no emotional attachment to "masochism".
There seems to be an endless supply of interested new players.
In short, although the mystery has been solved, the purchase threshold is still there, and it can still help Pei Qian make a lot of money, at least in this settlement cycle.
Pei Qian turned off the backend and thought about waiting for a while to see the sales growth and consider what countermeasures should be taken.
And the most important thing right now is...
First check the reservation status on ottoe1 mobile phone, and then transfer money to Lu Mingliang and Chang You!
It has been two days since reservations were opened on Thursday, and the number of otoe1 mobile reservations has increased to 4,728. Although it is still growing, it has been extremely slow.
Pei Qian was very happy. The situation was similar to what he had predicted before. When it goes on sale on Sunday, the number of pre-orders would be capped at 5,000, and it was absolutely impossible to go higher.
Pei Qian decided that of the 25 million, 5 million would be given to Lu Mingliang to allow him to continue to Lincheng to open more headwind stations, while the remaining 20 million would be given to Chang You to allow him to stock up on 4,000 units.
We are stocking 5,000 more units!
If all the more than 5,000 reserved mobile phones can be sold, then the remaining money will be used to prepare goods. By then, there will be a backlog of about 13,000 to 40,000 mobile phones in the warehouse.
Just let this money be kept in the warehouse and stay there until the next settlement cycle. That would be perfect!
…
After asking Assistant Xin to arrange everything, Pei Qian leaned on the chair and could finally take a break.
He turned on his computer and took a look at the comments made by netizens about the game "bequiet" and the ottoe1 mobile phone.
Now, the puzzle content of the game "Bequiet" has been completely revealed, and posts about how to purchase the game have been posted everywhere.
However, players' comments on this show a clear polarization trend, and they even started quarreling online.
"I'm crazy. I can't just buy the game after all the puzzles have been solved. I still have to go through such complicated pre-steps? Is there something wrong with me?"
"It's just that when you spend money to buy a game, you still have to look at the creator's face. Tenda is really awesome, don't give up!"
"I still don't understand the meaning of this so-called arg game. I just want to play the game and I'm not interested in solving puzzles at all!"
"That's it, I will definitely not buy it, just wait for this game to die!"
"...Who do you think you are? Do you think Tenda cares about this? Since they created this arg game and set the purchase threshold, it is to screen out you newbie players who don't like to use their brains."
"That's right, if you want to play mindless games, go to "Sea Fortress" to shoot guns. It's not like Tenda doesn't have games like this that are suitable for you."
"This arg game is so interesting. Although I can't solve it myself, I get excited every day watching the masters solve the puzzle online!"
"This arg game and the eye-catching game in the last step amazed me. I think it's worth it! This is equivalent to a large-scale, multi-player free brain-burning game, equivalent to buy one and get one free in "Bequiet"
One, what is there to be dissatisfied about?"
"And Tenda also made "Lonely Desert Highway" and "Game Maker" free, what a conscience!"
People on both sides had a heated argument.
Pei Qian is not interested in the content of their debate. He is only concerned that many people are dissatisfied with the game "Bequiet", which will reduce the game's revenue this month.
I also took a look at netizens’ comments on the ottoe1 mobile phone. Basically, they are in a state of polarization, but those who support this mobile phone are obviously in a weak position.
The reason is simple, too few are sold!
This phone has only sold 3,000 units so far. Even if all these people are very satisfied with the phone, they are only 3,000 people. There are still many people who may not discuss this online at all.
And more people are questioning the brand, quality control, stocking, etc. of this mobile phone, thinking that this mobile phone is a hype, and they need to wait and see for a while whether it is worth buying.
Pei Qian is very satisfied with this. Just continue to wait and see. You must stick to your own judgment and don't buy it!
Finally, Pei Qian took out his phone and took another look at the Gouyan app.
On the 18th day after the release of "Better Tomorrow", the box office on that day was 4.184 million, and the estimated box office was 225 million!
Until now, "Better Tomorrow" still ranks second at the box office on the same day, and the first place is a domestic movie that was just released two days ago.
Pei Qian put his hand on his forehead, his face was full of pain.
The estimated box office has increased significantly compared to before!
This shows that the film has great stamina, probably because some people came to watch it for second or third time.
This is very bad news for Pei Qian, because if the movie box office works hard, Pei Qian will have to pay several million more...
What a sin!
Pei Qian subconsciously swiped to the right, wanting to see tomorrow's schedule.
However, in the pre-sale column, "Better Tomorrow", which originally occupied the second place, was directly pushed to the third place, and the first place is an upcoming American blockbuster!
Pei Qian couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
The savior is here!
Great, the movie’s box office will definitely not reach 225 million!
Brother, why didn’t you release it half a month earlier???
