Monday, April 11.
Yangyang game.
Lin Wan is in her office, worrying about her recent work tasks.
She found that the tasks assigned by President Pei were becoming more and more challenging.
In the past, it was developing a very rare online horror game on the market, and was responsible for the development of a mobile phone. Now, it is the national server that operates ioi, a successful foreign game project.
Compete directly with the gog of Tenda Games in the domestic market!
It stands to reason that it is much more difficult to develop a new game and be responsible for a mobile phone than to represent a game.
Because agent games do not need to do their own research and development, it is enough to think about operation and promotion strategies, which seems to be easier.
But Lin Wan's pressure at this time was even greater than before.
Because she thinks this is a very difficult task!
Much more difficult than the previous task!
The first time she received the mission, she called Ye Zhizhou and Wang Xiaobin for a meeting to discuss the plan for the mission.
Some conventional plans were quickly finalized, such as opening the official website of the national server, translation and dubbing of the national server, renting a cloud server, outsourcing the customer service team, opening the national server and operating promotion activities, etc.
These are the most basic, even if Lin Wan doesn't care, Ye Zhizhou, Wang Xiaobin and others can do it.
But the question is, how can it be possible to compete with gog by these alone
Lin Wan recalled that when President Pei explained the task before, he seemed to have great expectations for ioi's national uniform in his words.
But Lin Wan himself does not think that ioi has a fighting power with gog in the national server.
Because the game quality of gog is not inferior to that of ioi, and the most critical problem is that gog has seized the market through the interoperability of end-to-end and mobile games, and has attracted a large number of players through the cash rewards settled every four seasons.
At present, whether it is the original "Shen Qi" and ioi players, or players who have never been in contact with similar games before, they all have a natural affection for gog.
The start has fallen behind so much, it's easier said than done to turn the situation around!
And what made Lin Wan speechless the most was that it was herself who gave Li Yada a tip and let her go to the mobile version first...
Of course, this idea was proposed by President Pei, but Lin Wan interpreted President Pei's intentions.
Lin Wan now feels a little bit of what it feels like when other companies compete with Tenda.
Completely incapable of talking!
Tenda Games can be said to be Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and it can also get the guidance of President Pei. It is an absolutely thorny enemy.
While worrying, there was a knock on the door from outside the office.
Lin Wan looked up and saw that it was Ye Zhizhou.
"How's the preparation for the national service?" Lin Wan asked casually.
With a document in his hand, Ye Zhizhou sat down opposite the desk: "Everything went well. Our department has always had experience in operating "Blood War Song". Although the difficulty of operating ioi is much higher, it will not be in a hurry."
Lin Wan was a little melancholy: "I don't know what President Pei thought this time."
"I don't want to compete with Tenda's game department at all."
"But looking at President Pei's attitude, it seems to encourage us to burn money for marketing and promotion, and let the ioi national server version seize the gog market."
"I always feel weird to beat myself, especially since I'm so familiar with the people in Tenda's game department, it's even more weird."
"Besides, I really don't think there's any chance of winning."
Obviously, for Lin Wan, the two games are very different from each other.
gog is a game developed by Tenda itself, and there are heroes based on President Pei in it; and although ioi is also good, it is not so friendly after all.
What's more, Tenda only has the right to operate ioi, but cannot interfere in research and development, which makes Lin Wan feel very uncomfortable.
Ye Zhizhou was silent for a moment, and then said, "I think Boss Pei may be carrying out a gu raising tactic."
"Gog's development is too smooth, but it is easy to slack off and be overtaken by latecomers. For similar game types, most players can only play one at a time, and the winner takes all."
Lin Wan thought for a while: "I thought so too, but... Where's the evidence?"
Ye Zhizhou said, "The evidence is time."
"Yuanmeng Venture Capital's first investment after its establishment was to invest 20 million yuan in Zhitou Company and get the agency rights of ioi's national service; then, President Pei began to let Tenda's game department immediately start developing gog. Is this just a Is it a coincidence?"
"Obviously, President Pei has foreseen the huge potential of this type of game in the future."
"For most games, it is enough to choose either an agent or self-research, but Mr. Pei obviously attaches great importance to this game mode, so he has both hands, acting as an agent and self-research."
Lin Wan nodded, feeling very reasonable.
For a long time, Mr. Pei gave the impression that he was strategizing and thinking out of nowhere.
When making games, after a certain type of game is successful, never redo a second game of the same type.
But gog and ioi are obviously the same type of games, but they are laid out at the same time. Whether it is betting on both ends, or allowing the two projects to spur each other, it shows that President Pei attaches great importance to this.
Lin Wan thought for a while: "So, our primary goal now is to complete President Pei's mission and earnestly grab gog's users, right?"
Ye Zhizhou nodded: "I agree. Although we can't guess 100% of President Pei's thoughts, it should be certain that President Pei asked us to grab users of gog."
"But..." Lin Wan frowned slightly, "Maybe it's because I look at gog with a strong subjective color. I really don't think there is any way for ioi to win gog."
Ye Zhizhou handed the document in his hand to Lin Wan: "I think this may be one of our trump cards."
Lin Wan reached out and took it, flipped through it quickly, and found that this was a development schedule for the new ioi hero.
Throughout this year, ioi expects to update 24 new heroes, with an average of two new heroes per month.
"So fast?!" Lin Wan was stunned.
Because she has a general understanding of the complex process required to make a new hero, hero creativity, shape design, original painting, modeling, action, special effects, numerical balance...
These jobs are very tedious.
Such an update speed is simply a model worker.
As the saying goes, the world's martial arts, only fast is not broken, the game is the same, even if a game manufacturer's game is not so perfect, as long as it continues to update, improve, and provide new content, it can maintain enough player stickiness.
Conversely, even if a company's game is doing well, but the updates are too slow to keep up with players' demand for new content, the game's popularity will quickly decline.
Finger Company's ioi is a well-made game in its own right, and if it can be paired with this super-fast update speed...
Definitely very competitive!
Lin Wan thought for a while: "Gog's side... It seems impossible to maintain this update speed. It would be good to be able to make a new hero in more than a month."
Ye Zhizhou nodded: "Yes, we all know the situation of Tenda games."
Now Tenda's game department has been divided into two groups. Hu Xianbin himself led a group of people to be responsible for the research and development of "Struggle", while Min Jingchao and Zhang Nan led another group of people to be responsible for the version update, new hero design and skin design of gog. .
Obviously, there is a lot of difference between the number of people and the finger company, and the speed of developing new heroes will naturally have a big gap.
If ioi's hero update speed is much faster than gog, it means that ioi can provide players with more game content, which is a huge advantage, enough to close the gap in early popularity.
Lin Wan thought about it for a long time and said, "Okay, then we will make a fuss from this point."
"Since President Pei wants our two projects to spur each other and make progress together, there is no reason to talk about human feelings. Let's do our best!"
…
At the same time, Pei Qian was in the office, checking the data of Moyu Takeout.
The person in charge of Moyu Takeaway, Rui Yuchen, was standing aside with a very uneasy expression.
Since its inception, Moyu Takeaway has been a subsidiary industry of Moyu Internet Cafe. The person in charge of Moyu Internet Cafe was changed from Ma Yang to Zhang Yuan, and then from Zhang Yuan to Xiao Peng, who has always been Rui Yuchen's direct superior.
At the beginning of the establishment of Moyu Takeaway, Lin Canrong was in charge of it, but because of Lin Canrong's outstanding loss performance during the period when he was in charge of Moyu Takeaway, Pei Qian was transferred to be in charge of Mingyun Private Kitchen.
So Rui Yuchen took over this shortcoming and has been in charge of Moyu takeout ever since.
Pei Qian had never met Rui Yuchen before, because Moyu's takeaway business was affiliated with Moyu Internet Cafe. If you have any needs, you can directly ask the person in charge of Moyu Internet Cafe.
And the reason why Pei Qian called Rui Yuchen today is of course...
To promote him.
It's just that Rui Yuchen didn't know what President Pei's real intentions were, and was very worried that this time Pei would always ask teachers to ask for guilt, so he was very nervous and uneasy.
So far, Moyu Internet Cafe has been losing money and not making a profit. In contrast, other related businesses: Moyu Internet Cafe, Rof Installation, Mingyun Private Kitchen... All of them have turned losses into profits, and even opened a branch in Lincheng.
The only one that competes with Moyu Takeaway, which has continued to lose money, is only headwind logistics.
The person in charge of Reversible Logistics is Mr. Pei's hardcore. Lu Mingliang made great contributions to Mr. Pei in the game department at the beginning. How can he compare
Rui Yuchen felt that if Mr. Pei wanted to find a loss-making department to operate, it seemed the most reasonable choice.
Thinking of this, he became even more nervous.
Pei Qian was very satisfied after reading the various data of Moyu Takeaway.
It is not difficult for a business to lose money for a while, but it is difficult to keep losing money, and no matter how other businesses turn losses into profits, whether or not the person in charge is changed, they are still losing money!
Lin Canrong brought Mingyun's private kitchen on fire, which was enough to prove his ability.
But even Lin Canrong failed to make Moyu Takeaway turn a profit.
This is enough to show that Moyu Takeout is a good department that can withstand the test!
Thinking of this, Pei Qian tapped on the table lightly: "What do you think... Moyu Food Delivery is still not profitable, what is the main reason?"
Rui Yuchen's heart skipped a beat, secretly thinking that it was not good.
President Pei really wants to invite his teacher to ask the guilt!
Rui Yuchen had the answer in his heart. He felt that Moyu Takeaway could not be profitable, mainly because of the operation model.
But I can't say it!
The operation model was decided by President Pei. If there is a problem with this model, wouldn't that be a slap in the face of President Pei on the spot
Rui Yuchen pretended to think hard, and finally shook his head: "I don't know."
Although this answer will seem incompetent, at least it is much better than hitting President Pei in the face...
Pei Qian was stunned for a moment, a little surprised by this little brother's uprightness.
But he quickly smiled, because he was very satisfied with the answer!
Seems like a malleable talent.
That being the case, let him take on more responsibilities!
