Chapter 544: Recruiting the Moon for the Yangyang Game
Thursday, June 9th.
After arranging the mass production of the fully automatic bar lifting machine on Monday, Pei Qian had a relatively leisurely life these two days.
Occasionally I asked about the situation of Tenda Games, Managed Gym and Moyu Food Delivery. It seemed that everything was calm and everything was fine.
At noon, Pei Qian had dinner at Moyu Internet Cafe as usual, drinking coffee while sorting out the mind maps of various departments.
"bite."
The phone rang, Pei Qian picked it up and looked at it, his brows instantly furrowed.
It was a message from the insurance manager at Mingyun Private Kitchen.
"Mr. Pei, the number of foreigners eating and making reservations has obviously increased in the past two days."
Are there a significant increase in foreigners?
Something seems wrong!
Pei Qian was instantly alert.
He had previously told the meeting that all management students could report to him at any time when they discovered some obvious "abnormalities" without waiting for the regular meeting, so that "delayed reporting" could be avoided to the greatest extent.
"thorn" problem.
After all, there are many dangers. If you discover them one day earlier and one day later, the result will be completely different.
Obviously, the manager of Mingyun Private Chef did a good job.
"Do you know the reason?" Pei Qian replied immediately.
Guan Shuisheng: "It's not clear yet. It's speculated that some influential foreign friend came here to eat and promoted it to his friends around him."
"Recently, Manager Lin has put a lot of effort into service, and the dining experience of foreign friends in the restaurant has been greatly improved. Especially the all-English explanations of the dishes incorporate the cultural connotation of my country's traditional food, and the effect seems to be very good."
Pei Qian was silent for a moment and replied: "You did a good job, thank you for your hard work."
Pei Qian was very satisfied with this supervisor's report.
Look, what does it mean to be a professional 25-year-old!
At the next regular meeting of the management students, this management student must be named and praised, so that other management students can learn from it!
After mastering this important information, Pei Qian began to analyze it carefully.
Unexpectedly, Lin Canrong asked the waiters to learn English, and it actually worked?
However, judging from the current situation, this does not seem to be a particularly serious matter.
Lin Canrong trains waiters and learn foreign languages, which increases the cost a lot. However, the current price of Mingyun Private Kitchen has not increased, and the daily reservations are already full. So what if more foreigners make reservations?
Doesn’t it make more money for yourself?
"Well... on the surface, it does seem to be harmless. But we can't take it lightly. What if there are some possibilities hidden in it that I haven't expected at all?"
Pei Qian looked at the time.
"It's almost 1 o'clock. According to the previous plan, we will first go to Yangyang Games to have a look, and then start to find out what happened at Mingyun Private Kitchen."
Pei Qian thought for a long time, but he didn't expect that the further increase in Mingyun Private Chef's reputation would bring any imminent harm to him, so he could only put it aside for the time being.
…
In the afternoon, Pei Qian came to Yangyang Game.
On the way here, Pei Qian also took the time to search on the Internet for opinions on the "arms race" between gog and ioi on his mobile phone.
All I can say is that the situation is not optimistic!
If the battle between these two games is divided into two stages, then both stages have ended with gog's overall victory.
In the first stage, gog wiped out a large number of domestic players who were waiting and watching through two-terminal interoperability, smooth network, fast matching, and large-scale currency distribution at the end of the season. However, ioi came belatedly after gog's large-scale currency distribution.
The national server is opened, and the mobile game is not opened;
In the second stage, ioi took the lead in starting an arms race, updating two heroes at a very high frequency every month, hoping to steal away gog players. However, gog's backhand was to crowdfund heroes and continuously launched Traveler Bao Xu.
Popular heroes such as the Japanese style ink Ruan, and the generous rewards of "crowdfunding" have kept players paying high attention to new gog heroes.
In short, ioi updates are indeed very fast, but it still doesn't gain much popularity.
Although the "arms race" between these two games will continue, and may even last for several months or a year, judging from the current situation, the winner of this confrontation has actually been decided.
As long as Min Jingchao is not crazy, gog can rely on the advantages of crowdfunding to not fall behind in the quality of heroes and maintain its dominance in player attention.
In short, the entire Internet now has an extremely unfavorable attitude towards ioi.
Pei Qian was very worried.
Although gog and ioi will make money miserably no matter which game becomes popular, relatively speaking, Pei Qian is currently more on ioi's side.
After all, Lin Wan had to be arranged to leave first.
No matter how much your game makes money, it is still controllable and can be alleviated by throwing away money and giving profits to players;
The backstabbing of Lin Wan's brothers and sisters was completely unpredictable and the threat was too great!
Speaking of this, Pei Qian gets so angry that his liver aches. "Better Tomorrow" won an award because of Lin Chang's review. It has been extended overseas and has already earned millions of dollars in box office, and it is still some time before it is released.
It’s obvious which threat is greater!
Pei Qian knew very well that everyone at Yangyang Games must be very discouraged now, and it was exactly the time when they needed some encouragement from Mr. Pei.
When he arrived at Yangyang Games, Pei Qian went straight into the conference room.
Pei Qian had notified him in advance, so the key members of Yangyang Games were already waiting in the conference room.
"Mr. Pei."
Everyone stood up to pay their respects, but the expressions on everyone's faces were a little disappointed.
Lin Wan's expression was especially like this.
Pei Qian couldn't help but feel a thump in his heart.
What's with your expressions? Don't give up!
Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "The recent promotion of the ioi national server does not seem to be going very smoothly? It doesn't matter. Don't be so depressed. If you have anything to say, you can speak freely."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Lin Wan spoke first.
"I can now understand how Tengda's opponents feel."
"There is no way, the most difficult people are always our own people, not to mention that we also have a pig teammate."
Pei Qian's heart sank: "Pig teammates?"
Are you talking about me?
Is it possible that they know that I was the one responsible for the Wind Mohist?
Pei Qian was a little flustered for no reason.
Wang Xiaobin explained: "It's Zhitou Company, Mr. Pei. We have long realized that we can't beat gog if we continue like this, so we wrote several emails to Zhitou Company and gave them some suggestions. In the end, their wordings were similar, but they didn't
accept."
"Moreover, there seems to be some intention of blaming us."
"It seems to be saying that ioi is doing well in other parts of the world and the response is good, but why can't it work here? Obviously they think there is something wrong with our operating strategy."
Pei Qian let out a long breath, oh, it's not me, then it's okay.
I was shocked and thought I was exposed.
Lin Wan spread her hands: "You can't blame them. After all, no one who is truly an enemy of Tengda can understand the horror of Tengda."
"I finally learned the lesson this time."
She sighed softly: "What's more... Mr. Pei can turn things around with just a few words."
"Uh..." Pei Qian coughed twice, "Well, I am very objective and fair."
Ye Zhizhou said with some meaning: "Min Jingchao originally wanted to recruit people to speed up the development of new heroes, but he was rejected by Mr. Pei? If it weren't for Mr. Pei's hint, how could he have thought of asking players to crowdfund heroes?
idea."
Pei Qian: "...This is completely a misunderstanding."
Everyone immediately put on an "I understand" expression.
Pei Qian was speechless. This was such a misunderstanding!
My heart does stand with you!
What's more, even if I helped them secretly, it wasn't with the idea of crowdfunding heroes...
I can't help it, I can't explain it clearly.
Pei Qian decided not to dwell on this topic anymore. Anyway, he was used to everyone's attitude.
Now that Zhitou Company does not agree to make changes to ioi, Shangyang Games can only continue to think of other solutions.
"So, do you have any good ideas about the next operational strategy?" Pei Qian asked.
Everyone looked at each other again, but no one spoke.
Lin Wan sighed: "Mr. Pei, we are still thinking hard."
Pei Qian secretly thought it was not good.
It can be clearly seen that everyone has lost their fighting spirit. They probably feel that gog's lead is too big. How can they win by relying on marketing alone when the company is unwilling to cooperate in changing the game?
Since it is a task handed down by President Pei, we certainly cannot be discouraged by saying "we can't win", but there is really no better way.
Pei Qian felt that Lin Wan was about to say something like "I feel that my abilities are insufficient and I have to continue studying at Tenda" in any minute.
Quick, use your little brain to help Shangyang Game think of a solution.
Pei Qian thought hard for a moment, and suddenly he had an idea.
If you are in doubt, just throw coins and that’s it!
Didn't gog become popular in the first place just by spreading money?
Then spread it to ioi!
Since the game cannot be modified, the only way is to overpower gog through overwhelming marketing.
Pei Qian coughed twice: "According to the last regulations, 50% of the profits of all departments can be freely used for various department expenses. Take this money out, and at the same time, I will allocate it to you again.
A special amount of funds.”
"This funding is mainly used for two aspects: anchor promotion, and Internet cafe promotion!"
"Find some anchors and ups, sponsor them, and continue to produce content about ioi, including introductions to new heroes, tutorial videos, etc., especially to create an impression for the audience that this game is very popular abroad."
"Then we cooperate with various Internet cafes. When we play ioi, we can use most of the skins for free. When we play ioi, we can get certain Internet fee reductions, etc."
"Forcibly steal the heat!"
In Pei Qian's impression, lol seems to be promoted in this way, and it will definitely be useful.
You can’t make mistakes when copying homework, right?
During the first regular meeting of the management trainees, the management trainees reported an important message to Pei Qian, that is, various departments were formulating large-scale spending plans, including replenishing salaries, purchasing office supplies, etc.
Pei Qian judged that this meant that each department had received the Tenda Cornerstone Award. While jealous of Headwind Logistics, they also started large-scale spending plans.
In this case, of course you have to help them!
Therefore, Pei Qian decided that 50% of the profits generated by all departments can be freely used to spend on all aspects of department expenses to improve the efficiency of each department's spending.
Of course, Pei Qian will also allocate additional funds to the loss-making departments such as Headwind Logistics and Moyu Takeout, to increase the speed of their losses.
So far, Yangyang Games has games such as "War Hymn" and "Be Quiet" that are making profits. The ioi national server also has income. 50% of this money will be used, plus Mr. Pei's special funds, to directly use it.
Money opens the way, forceful promotion, run over all the way!
Ye Zhizhou thought about it carefully and suddenly realized.
"I see, I learned another trick from Mr. Pei."
"When there is no special idea, you might as well use force to overcome skill!"
"Does this mean that there is no way to win without a way?"
Pei Qian: "...Almost."
Although I didn't think it was that complicated, there didn't seem to be much wrong with Ye Zhizhou's rainbow fart.
However, Lin Wan frowned slightly and asked: "Then...Mr. Pei, what if gog has no brains to follow up and burns money with us?"
