Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 253: Director Lin of the head iron and the happy President Pei

Views:

Finished calf.

After listening to Ye Zhizhou's words, Wang Xiaobin basically didn't expect the bonus.

If you just let the players of "Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition" rate, then maybe the word of mouth will be very good, because this game is very conscientious.

However, tpdb's scoring rules also include scores from game media and ordinary netizens. These netizens will not play this game in depth at all, and only give scores based on the first impression of the advertisement "I am a fried pig's trotter". This score It's a ghost if you can be tall.

After Shengyang Games was acquired by President Pei, the first game suffered a terrible disaster, which made everyone feel dull.

Could it be that we are really terminal cancer

Mr. Pei made a popular game, and all of them have a double harvest of word-of-mouth sales. With such a talented producer, can't he bring Yangyang games

This is too hard to handle.

"Everyone, come to the conference room, let me just say a few words."

Lin Wan's expression was also a little disappointed. Obviously, she also saw the data of the game, and she knew very well how pessimistic the current situation was.

But unlike the others, Lin Wan was not disappointed to the point of depression, and remained calm, as if she was already mentally prepared for this.

When they came to the conference room, everyone took their seats.

Lin Wan looked around the crowd and said sincerely, "Everyone should know the data on the first day of our game's launch, right? It's not optimistic."

Everyone was silent.

In fact, everyone present is very familiar with this scene, because when the former boss Du Ruijie was there, he often held this kind of pot-sharing + chicken blood conference when the game data was not good.

If there is a problem with the game, there will be a tendency to die violently when it goes online. It must be a big problem in some aspects, and this pot always needs to be divided.

The problem with "Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition" is that the micro-end is wrong.

Although the idea of Weiduan was first proposed by Wang Xiaobin, everyone unanimously approved it at the meeting, and both Director Lin and President Pei made the final decision.

How is this pot divided

Therefore, this meeting should have a few words on the matter of sharing the pot, and quickly enter the chicken blood link.

The current state of the game is worrying, and everyone must work overtime to reverse the trend as much as possible.

When the original boss Du Ruijie and the original chief policy Lao Liu were there, at this time it was definitely necessary for everyone to turn on the 996 Liver Mode and make crazy modifications to the game.

Of course, there is no overtime pay. After all, the company is at the juncture of life and death. It’s fine if you don’t share weal and woe with the company. How can you get overtime pay

Several old employees sighed silently.

After all, it is a company acquired by President Pei, and no structure has been changed. Once there is a problem with the operation of the company, it will return to the original internal taste.

Everyone's heart sank, and they were ready to work overtime in the future.

However, Lin Wan's words changed: "It's not everyone's fault, you don't have to blame yourself."

Everyone was a little surprised.

Director Lin didn't even want to split the pot

Although I think this is a good thing, if the game fails, someone has to stand up and take responsibility, right? Someone has to decide what to do next, right

Everyone raised their heads and listened carefully.

Lin Wan continued: "Let's think about it, Mr. Pei has never done a web game, and he is best at high-quality stand-alone games. But why did he acquire the loss-making Sangyang game, and why did he take over the Sangyang game after taking over the game? , have been fighting with the original krypton gold game "Blood War Song"?"

"Just to do a very risky thing with "Blood War Song", to do an experiment that no one has ever done!"

"Mr. Pei hopes that players will no longer be slaves to money. He wants to reverse the tastes of players, so that all players can enjoy the exclusive pleasure of local tyrant players even if they don't charge money..."

"From game production to promotion, President Pei is always moving towards this goal."

"We should have been fully psychologically prepared for a long time. Going against the sky is likely to fail."

"I believe that President Pei must have been mentally prepared for this."

Lin Wan herself was puzzled by this question when she first came to Shangyang Games, but she figured it out later.

Asking Zhang Zuting to shoot advertisements is to attract enough page game players;

Doing micro-end, creating a natural selection system, and cutting payment points is to cultivate healthy consumption habits of page game players.

This kind of motivation is noble, but it does violate the failure of the page game player's ****, in fact, there is a certain inevitability.

There is no shame in failing like a hero!

Lin Wan's expression was firm: "So, don't be defeated by this failure. We are not doing a money-making web game, we are doing a very noble cause, no matter whether we succeed or fail, we will Everyone is a hero!"

After hearing what Lin Wan said, everyone felt much better.

Everyone is not a loser, but a hero who goes against the sky!

Director Lin deserves to have worked with President Pei for so long, so he sees problems from a different angle.

Compared with the original boss Du Ruijie, it is simply a judgment.

Ye Zhizhou was also encouraged, and the frustration at the beginning had been reduced by more than half.

However, although morale has recovered, what needs to be done is still to be done.

"Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition" does not make money, and it is a problem that must be solved.

The solution is nothing more than two: one is to let go of the restrictions and let the local tyrants top up the recharge; the other is to double the current player group several times. As long as there are enough players, everyone buys stamina potions every day. Games are earned.

The former is definitely not going to work, and it took a lot of hard work to change it, and you can't give up all your efforts when you encounter a little setback.

It's just a matter of trying to expand the player base.

The atmosphere in the conference room heated up, and everyone began to speak freely, some said that they would change the micro-end mode, some said that they would make a major change to the game structure, and all of them were very enthusiastic.

Lin Wan listened carefully and didn't speak the whole time.

In the end, she shook her head: "It's not good. Our current plan is already the most perfect plan, and I think we should stick to it."

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

Will it be a little hard

According to Director Lin's previous analysis, she was right in thinking so.

The approach of the micro-end was finalized by President Pei, and it did improve the quality of the game. However, cutting the micro-end will lead to an incoherent game experience, and it is still a temporary solution, not necessarily a solution to the problem.

That's right, but it really doesn't change

According to the current status of the game, if it doesn't change, there is no hope, right

Lin Wan's attitude is firm: "No change. Don't worry too much during this time, and take a good rest. We will observe for a week. If the game data still does not improve after a week, I will think of other ways."

Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin looked at each other, and they could feel that Director Lin's attitude was very firm.

In this case, the others have nothing to say. After the meeting, they had to go back to their work stations and wait patiently for a week.

If it gets better after a week, it's easy to say.

If it doesn't get better... then I'm afraid it can only be changed.

Back in his office, Lin Wan also felt a little headache.

Although she boosted morale at the meeting and acted resolutely, she was still uncertain.

"In the past two days, take time to go back to see President Pei and ask him for advice in person."

Friday, September 3.

Pei Qian is checking the tpdb website in his office.

The website template was purchased, so the initial version went up quickly.

Although it is still in the tester, the current tpdb website is quite rudimentary and almost ready to use.

There are special staff who are discussing cooperation with other websites, and part of it has been completed.

For example, in terms of media ratings, we need to discuss cooperation with some game media; in terms of player ratings, we need to use data from the official esro platform; at the same time, the website URL of tpdb will also be updated to the game's details page, so that players can pass every game. Click on the details page of a game to rate it.

These experience-based optimizations are quite long-term work and cannot be accomplished overnight.

At present, the number of visits to tpdb is still very low, most of which are accessed by internal Tenda employees, as well as players from several games.

Because the popularity is too low, it has not even caused much discussion.

Pei Qian is looking at the rating data of "Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition".

At present, the total score of this game is 7.2 points, of which the consumer score and the netizen score are in a polarized state. The consumer score reaches 9.1 points, while the netizen score is only a pitiful 4.3 points.

This also means that players who really spend money on this game are very satisfied with the game.

Most of the netizens' ratings are because of Zhang Zuting's advertisement.

These people didn't really play the game, maybe they just accidentally clicked the game's official website and saw the tpdb website from the official website, and then gave a one-star bad review.

Although the weight of these people is not high, after all, the base of voting is too low, so the score is still in a period of drastic changes.

According to the regulations, 6~7 points are C evaluation, and the bonus is 1% of the project investment. Below 6 points, there is no bonus.

The total score of 7.2 points can only be regarded as a B evaluation, and the bonus is 5% of the project investment.

8 points or more is a rating, bonus 10%; 9 points or more is s rating, bonus 15%.

"Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition" invested about 8 million. According to the calculation of 5%, the project team can share about 400,000 in bonuses. On average, it is less than 10,000 yuan for each person.

For this result, Pei Qian still feels a little regretful.

Everyone tried their best to kill 8 million for me, and I only gave you a bonus of 400,000, which seems a bit inauthentic.

But the rules of tpdb have been set, and even President Pei cannot operate in the dark.

"It would be great if the game's rating was 8, and I could spend an extra 400,000."

Pei Qian is very clear that the low score cannot be blamed on the people of Shangyang Games. The game itself is very conscientious and deserves a high score, but many netizens are disgusted with this advertisement and retaliated to give a low score without playing the game. Lower overall rating.

But there is no need to rush, because there is still time.

There are not many users of tpdb now, so the fluctuation of the score will be more violent. Maybe the netizen score of "Blood War Song Power Enhanced Edition" will increase after a while.

Lin Wan nervously knocked on the door of President Pei's office.

Although the key design of this game was decided by President Pei, the current situation really makes Lin Wan feel at a loss.

Don't look at her confidence in front of the audience of Shangyang Games, when she really wants to see President Pei, she will still be at a loss.

"Please come in."

Lin Wan calmed down and pushed the door in.

She came this time to report her decision, hoping to get President Pei's support.

Of course, the revenue data of the game's launch is so poor, and Lin Wan, the director, is also mentally prepared to be held accountable.

However, after seeing Lin Wan, President Pei had a faint smile on his face, a happy expression from his heart, as if he was welcoming a great hero!
