Chapter 313 My Employees Have Already Learned to Rush to Answer
After leaving Shangyang Games, Pei Qian returned to Tenda.
There is still a lot of work that needs to be arranged slowly.
Apart from the problems of Shangyang Games and Lin Wan, Pei Qian's biggest headache was, what should Tenda's game department do for the next game?
So far, Pei Qian really feels a little helpless, oh no, feeling powerless.
From "Sea Fortress" to "Game Producer", and then to "Return to the Shore", Pei Qian has been constantly asking Tenda's game department to produce new game types, and the main planner alone has changed three times.
But what can be done?
Useless!
It seems that no matter how you change it, it will not have the desired effect!
Pei Qian wanted to make a horror game and lose money, but he dared not entrust Tengda with this task.
Only handing it over to Shangyang Games, which has little experience in stand-alone game development, Pei Qian was a little relieved.
But now the question is, Tengda and the group, what should they do?
Regardless of whether it is a stand-alone game or an online game, this group of people has corresponding successful game experience. If they continue to do it, they will probably have to replicate the previous success.
How about giving everyone a paid vacation?
However, there is no good reason. After all, in order to create losses in the last cycle, all kinds of employee benefits have been fully paid, and it will be difficult to add more.
The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more confused he became. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good solution.
I can only open Ellie Island by the way and start chasing dramas.
After watching for a while, someone knocked on the door.
Pei Qian looked up and saw that Huang Sibo had arrived.
"Mr. Pei, I have good news to share with you!"
Pei Qian's hands trembled, frightened by the words "good news".
This guy is backstabbing me again!
But after thinking about it, no, it has already been settled!
After the settlement, what am I afraid of!
Pei Qian's mentality stabilized instantly, and he showed a calm smile: "Huh? What good news? Is it about "One Day of the Great Inventor"?"
Huang Sibo looked a little excited, and said, "That's right! Mr. Pei, "One Day of the Great Inventor" is finally going to turn around!"
Pei Qian was a little surprised.
Can this show turn a profit? ?
It's not that Pei Qian looks down on this show, the key is that this kind of show has strong limitations.
Although Feihuang Studio shoots short films, it has always adhered to the attitude of excellence. Whether it is costumes, makeup, props, post-editing or actors, they are all expensive, and they belong to the category with relatively high expenses in online dramas.
And for the program "One Day of the Great Inventor", it is very difficult to receive a suitable advertisement for a meal.
If it's just a matter of just having a meal and not considering the effect of the program, then it's easy to say.
However, everyone in Feihuang studio strictly followed Mr. Pei's requirements to make videos, and they refused to accept any poorly-performing Qifan, so it was often several episodes in a row before finally receiving a decent Qifan.
Moreover, the props used in the "Day of the Great Inventor" program are all particularly useless things.
Even if the manufacturer comes to the door, it is difficult to achieve the effect of "bringing goods" through video, but it will play a role in dissuading them.
For example, the portable washing machine in the first issue, there are indeed similar products on the market, but after watching the video, a lot of consumers who originally wanted to buy this thing were dissuaded.
Up to now, "One Day of the Great Inventor" has been updated steadily for more than two months, and now it has filmed its twelfth issue.
Although a very large fixed audience has been formed, there has never been a good monetization channel. Just counting on the video incentive plan of Elli Island, it is simply not enough to eat.
So Pei Qian was very puzzled, how could such a show turn around and turn a profit?
Is Elli Island paying a lot of money to buy an exclusive broadcast again?
Or have you received many Chafan videos in a row?
Huang Sibo smiled and handed the phone to Pei Qian.
Pei Qian took it over and saw that it was an online store!
The name of the online store is "Edison's Laboratory". Click on the product list of the store, and Pei Qian's eyes quickly scanned the product list inside.
Finger exercise machine: Nowadays, we need mobile phones to tap the screen every day, so it is very important to keep fingers active. With this finger exercise machine, you can exercise your finger muscles in your spare time every day, so that your typing speed with your mobile phone will reach a peak.
The picture shows something that looks like a miniature treadmill. After "standing" on it with the index finger and middle finger, use your fingers to move the lower track, and the reading on the small LCD screen above will change, which is used to record the exercise time and mileage.
Slippers with LED light: After putting them on, just step on them hard, and they will emit light. Mom no longer has to worry about me going to the toilet alone at night!
Sunlight foot bath machine: use sunlight instead of water to promote blood circulation in the feet by "basking in the sun" and eliminate fatigue before going to bed. In addition, there is a self-tanning effect!
Grass Slippers: The fluffy turf grows on the slippers, and you can feel the feeling of stepping on the grass when you wear the slippers.
Pasta Spinning Fork: The fork handle has a battery and a motor, just press it lightly, the fork head will start to rotate, and easily roll up the pasta on the plate!
...
Pei Qian browsed the store's products from beginning to end, and found that there are quite a lot of products in this store, and most of them are products that have appeared in the video.
Looking at the sales volume of products again, some are extremely low, but there are also sales volumes of hundreds or thousands.
The highest transaction volume is some related peripherals, such as a certain theme T-shirt, which has sold more than 4,000 pieces.
The Q-version doll of a certain great inventor also sold more than 700 pieces.
In addition, the store also sells some snacks and gadgets, such as Q-version dolls, and these sales are not low!
With the products in the store and the occasional Qiafan advertisements, the video studio has really turned a profit!
Pei Qian showed a relieved smile.
Great!
He wasn't happy that Feihuang Studio turned a profit, but simply felt that Feihuang Studio had grasped the timing very well.
It just happened to turn around after the settlement, and it didn't backstab me!
If the loss is turned into profit before the settlement, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of funds will be inexplicably extra, won't Mr. Pei be so angry that he vomits blood?
But now, Pei Qian felt relaxed.
Just this little online store?
Not a big deal at all!
Seeing Mr. Pei showing a faint smile, Huang Sibo was also very pleased. It seems that Feihuang Studio's practice of sticking to the bottom line, not randomly accepting advertisements, and maintaining word-of-mouth has won Mr. Pei's approval!
However, the smile on Pei Qian's face only lasted for a short time before disappearing.
Pei Qian suddenly realized that online stores are not safe!
Although I don’t make much money for the time being, the next few years will be the time when online stores will take off. Many retired professional players can open online stores and earn millions of dollars a month selling things like pork nuggets, let alone Feihuang Studio. An online store that is managed by a dedicated person?
There is no need to think about going further, as long as the current trend continues, Feihuang Studio will definitely accumulate a large amount of funds when the settlement is made this time!
At that time, don't you still have to rack your brains thinking about how to lose money?
Broken, happy too soon!
Although the last settlement cycle escaped disaster, the profit problem of Feihuang Studio still needs to be resolved within this cycle!
Pei Qian coughed twice, and handed the phone back to Huang Sibo.
"Good, but more work is needed."
"What are the plans for Feihuang Studio in the future?"
Huang Sibo smiled and said: "Director Zhu Xiaoce and I discussed a little bit, and we decided to continue filming "One Day of the Great Inventor" and strive to make this drama a big IP with wide influence!"
"It seems that the online store model is also very good at present, and has completed the initial goal of turning Feihuang Studio into a profit. We plan to make persistent efforts to obtain higher income!"
Pei Qian fell silent and did not respond.
Huang Sibo's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a trace of displeasure in President Pei.
Why?
Didn't President Pei still have a smile on his face before? How did it become so serious in a blink of an eye?
After all, Huang Sibo was also the first employee to follow Mr. Pei, so he still has some insight and understanding.
After thinking about it for a while, Huang Sibo quickly understood the reason.
"Understood."
"President Pei smiled before because he was happy for Feihuang Studio and "One Day of the Great Inventor" to turn a profit. This represents a recognition of our work achievements."
"But his face is serious now, probably because he is dissatisfied with our work arrangements for a period of time in the future!"
Huang Sibo couldn't help thinking of the many conversations he had with Mr. Pei before.
Mr. Pei has repeated orders and repeatedly emphasized that we must take a long-term view, and we must not be obsessed with short-term petty profits!
Although Feihuang Studio has made a profit, to Pei Zong, would he care about such a small amount of money?
I'm afraid not!
It seems that Mr. Pei has higher expectations for Feihuang Studio!
Pei Qian was still thinking about how to persuade Huang Sibo to make less money, but he didn't think of a good argument for a while.
Instead, Huang Sibo spoke first.
"Mr. Pei, are you dissatisfied with the work arrangement of Feihuang Studio in the future?"
"Do you think that Feihuang Studio should produce some better works, instead of being obsessed with the petty profits in front of you?"
Pei Qian: "..."
Um? My employees have now learned to rush to answer?
He looked up at Huang Sibo's extremely sincere eyes, and nodded silently: "Yes, that's what I mean!"
Huang Sibo showed a gratified smile, secretly thinking that he has made progress following Mr. Pei, and he is more and more able to think from a higher perspective!
However, his smile quickly subsided.
"Mr. Pei, it's really not that we are short-sighted."
"The point is, director Zhu Xiaoce and I didn't find a good direction, not even a ready-made idea."
"It would be great if Mr. Pei could give you some pointers!"
Looking at Huang Sibo's expectant eyes, Pei Qian was in a dilemma.
Ask me for an idea?
Aren't you afraid of making mistakes all year long?
Uh, that's not right, the ideas I gave seem to be really popular.
Pei Qian is stuck in a tangle, don't give me any ideas, Feihuang Studio will continue to shoot "A Day of the Great Inventor". According to the current development trend, the sales of this online store will only increase. There will be more and more advertisements for Qiafan, and it will definitely make money.
Give me an idea, Pei Qian himself is also worried, what if this idea becomes popular?
