Chapter 463 It Should Have Been a Good Day

Monday, March 21.

Pei Qian got up at noon on time and came to the company after lunch.

Just about to get into the elevator, it suddenly occurred to me that today seems to be the day when the GOG terminal game is released.

So he didn't press the button on the 16th floor, but decided to go to the game department on the 17th floor first, and ask a little about the situation of the GOG terminal game.

In terms of time, the client game version has been released for two or three hours, and the initial data should have come out, enough to see some clues.

"GOG terminal games are definitely not as popular as mobile games."

"After all, GOG mobile games are popular because the development of mobile games is lagging behind. Most mobile games cannot be played at all, forming a blow to dimensionality reduction."

"And the end game is different. There are many old MMORPG and FPS games at a higher level, and the players are very sticky; at the same level, there are the veteran game "Shenqi" and the fast-popular ioi abroad; at the lower level There are also various rising stars.”

"With such fierce competition, GOG PC Games, as a new project that has just arrived, must not have a good start."

Pei Qian came to the 17th floor, and was captured by Hu Xianbin as soon as he entered the door.

"President Pei, you are here!" Hu Xianbin's expression was quite excited.

Pei Qian instinctively felt that something was wrong: "Why, did you guess that I was coming?"

Hu Xianbin smiled: "I'm just guessing. After all, the GOG terminal game started so well, you must have expected it a long time ago. It's a high probability event to come and take a look."

Pei Qian: "?"

Such a good start? ? ?

Are our two understandings of "good start" different?

It’s fine for a mobile game to start well, but how can a client game be good?

"President Pei, look!"

Hu Xianbin raised his hand to signal.

Pei Qian followed his hand and looked at the computer screen next to him. On it was the initial data of the GOG terminal game, which was constantly changing.

Fuck! Such a good start? !

Pei Qian almost cried out.

He had seen similar data when the GOG mobile game was launched, but it was a mobile game project after all, and there were not many competitors in the entire field, so good data is normal.

But why is the data of the terminal game now better than the data of the mobile game when it was just launched?

This is not scientific at all!

Pei Qian subconsciously looked at Hu Xianbin.

Hu Xianbin smiled confidently: "Mr. Pei, I knew you were going to test me. I have already thought about it carefully and summed up the reasons!"

"On the one hand, although the competition in the field of terminal games is fierce, the number of players is still larger than that of mobile games, and there are more players who like heavy games!"

"On the other hand, we, Tenda, have been deeply involved in the field of terminal games in the past two years. With the support of "Sea Fortress" and many stand-alone games, once the GOG terminal game is launched, there will be a huge potential player base!"

"Finally, and most importantly, the GOG mobile game and the season bonus have accumulated enough popularity for the GOG terminal game before it goes live!"

"Due to the interoperability of mobile game accounts, many mobile game users download the terminal game for the first time to experience it."

"In order to get the season bonus, many players even stay in the Internet cafe in advance, and immediately enter the server as soon as the server is opened, to hit the qualifying competition and race against the clock!"

"That's why the GOG client game got off to such a good start!"

"According to the data just sent by Moyu Internet Cafe, the three games in the original Internet cafe, "Shenqi", ioi international server, and GOG test server, are in a three-legged situation. After the official launch of the GOG client game, the balance has been broken."

"The GOG terminal game quickly overwhelmed the other two games and won the favor of players!"

"Although it is too early to declare victory, GOG's idea of ​​launching mobile games first and then PC games is obviously a great success!"

"This is inseparable from Mr. Pei's wise guidance!"

Pei Qian looked confused: "...I have never guided you to make GOG mobile games."

Hu Xianbin nodded: "Yes, that's right."

"It was Sister Li's request to make GOG mobile games and end-game interoperability."

"However, Sister Li said that the reason why she came up with this method of 'dislocation competition' was learned from you. A series of classic marketing and promotion operations you carried out before inspired Sister Li and changed her way of thinking. This is how I thought of using this method to promote GOG client games!"

Pei Qian: "..."

Is this the backstab from across the ocean?

Li Yada was still traveling, yet he was able to leave a thorn in advance...

In addition to feeling egg pain, Pei Qian also suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of crisis.

According to the current situation, if ioi does not go abroad, the situation is probably not good...

No, the national server of ioi must be arranged in the next cycle.

Otherwise, the world line will completely deviate from what I imagined, and the consequences will be disastrous!

Pei Qian turned and left.

Hu Xianbin is no stranger to Mr. Pei's swift and resolute actions: "Mr. Pei, walk slowly! Welcome to come often! Be ready to accept inspections at any time!"

After Mr. Pei left, Hu Xianbin looked at the data on the computer screen thoughtfully.

"I have to say that Mr. Pei's trick of 'making a mobile game when things go wrong' is really a panacea to solve all problems."

"Many people have seen the inevitability of the advent of mobile games with the development of smart phones, but their understanding of the game industry itself restricts their behavior."

"Although they saw the arrival of the mobile game wave, they focused on light games and casual games."

"But Mr. Pei is different. He is proficient in the mobile phone and game industries at the same time, so that he can more aggressively put some heavy games on the mobile game platform. "Blood Song" is like this, and so is GOG."

"Uh... Although he didn't make the decision directly, it is obvious that both Director Lin and Sister Li were influenced by his thinking."

"Isn't it right to make a mobile game when things go wrong? In the future, all games that can be changed into mobile games can be changed into mobile games?"

"Hmm... This seems to be a good idea. The battle mode like "Sea Fortress" seems to be very suitable for changing to a mobile game."

"Well, write this down, make bold assumptions, and carefully verify..."

...

...

Tuesday, March 22.

Feihuang studio.

"Mr. Pei, I still think it's a little bit of a loss not to extend the secret key."

"Like the quality and box office of our film, it should be a basic operation to extend the release for another month."

"Although it won't make much more money if you extend it for a month, no matter how low the film scheduling rate is, it's good to earn an extra 10 to 20 million."

Zhu Xiaoce sipped his tea while thinking about it.

And Pei Qian turned a deaf ear to his words, sipping tea with a faint smile on his face.

For Pei Qian, today is a good day.

"A Better Tomorrow" is finally released!

This month has been a nightmare for Pei Qian. He thought that February 22 would be an auspicious day, and the movie would hit the street and die when it was released. However, one month later, the box office of the movie was finally fixed at 248.62 Ten thousand.

The last-minute assist of "Flying Star Journey" made "Beautiful Tomorrow", which has entered the end of its life, suddenly suffer from a dying illness and sat up in shock. Looking back, it tenaciously cut more than Gouyan APP predicted. Nearly 20 million box office.

In conversion, the repayment to the production team will be about 83 million.

And the investment of this film is 30 million.

Therefore, more than a week ago, when Pei Qian heard that Zhu Xiaoce and Huang Sibo proposed to extend the movie key for another month and earn another month's box office, he was emotional and resolutely opposed it.

In short, the movie "Beautiful Tomorrow" is finally released today.

Director Zhu Xiaoce obviously felt a little bit of a pity.

Even if it is extended for another month, it won't make much more money at the box office. At most, it will be more than 10 million yuan, and there will be five or six million yuan left in the hands, but why don't you take the free money.

Pei Qian drank tea silently, thinking that you know a hammer.

If it is extended for another month, the payment will also be extended for another month.

The next settlement cycle will probably be around five months. According to the current pace, there is a "quick settlement and payment return" business, and the payment will be credited within one month after the film is released.

If the payment is received in March, it can be invested in the project immediately.

If you call in April and put it into the project, the deadline of the project will be very tight, and it is very likely that it will not be completed.

So, never delay!

The two had different ideas, and they looked at each other silently.

At this moment, Huang Sibo, who had just answered the phone, came over and sat down on the empty seat.

"Director Zhu, obviously Mr. Pei's decision is the right one."

"We really shouldn't be extending keys."

Zhu Xiaoce was taken aback: "Huh?"

Huang Sibo had a smile on his face: "The people from Ellis Island contacted me just now, and they want to talk to us about the exclusive cooperation of "A Better Tomorrow"!"

Zhu Xiaoce: "?"

Pei Qian: "?"

Both of them were a little surprised, but one was surprised and the other was frightened.

Zhu Xiaoce froze for a moment, then slapped his thigh suddenly: "That's right! Got it!"

"Although the extended secret key can be released in cinemas for an extra month, but in this way, the audience's demand for watching movies will be further reduced. When the website discusses cooperation with us, the asking price will naturally be reduced accordingly."

"Although "Beautiful Tomorrow" has been released, there is still heat left. Now we can talk about cooperation with video sites like Elli Island, especially exclusive deals, and we can get the best conditions!"

Huang Sibo smiled slightly: "Not only that."

"In April, there will be popular online dramas with high attention, and many resources will be allocated."

"And from now until the end of March, there just happens to be no very popular dramas on the website."

"After "Beautiful Tomorrow" signed an exclusive contract, at least in March, it will get good recommendation resources!"

Zhu Xiaoce nodded suddenly: "I see, that's wonderful."

"Release the show on time to keep the popularity, so as to fight for more benefits with the video site."

"It's just that, can the asking price on the video site be much higher than five million?"

Huang Sibo flipped through the documents on his phone: "Currently Elli Island offers two different exclusive cooperation models."

"One is a buyout. According to the current market, for a movie with a box office of over 100 million and with the participation of famous actors, the copyright procurement fee starts at 10 million, but the maximum is no more than 50 million."

"Our movie has a box office of more than 200 million yuan, and the popularity is not bad now, so Elli Island's asking price for us is 18 million yuan."

"The other is to divide into..."

Zhu Xiaoce slapped his thigh: "Of course it's a buyout!"

Pei Qian: "Share!"

The two spoke at almost the same time, and the scene was a little awkward for a while.

Zhu Xiaoce's thinking is very simple, sell this movie to a video website, and the video website will make it on-demand, even if it is a cut, how long will it take to earn 18 million?

Of course it's a one-shot deal, isn't it a blood profit if you sell it for 18 million? You don't have to worry about it anymore.

However, Pei Qian's perspective was beyond anyone's imagination.

18 million is now in the account, isn't this killing me?

I managed to temporarily spend all the extra money in the account in one operation, and it was about to be settled, and 18 million was suddenly calculated for me. Where should I spend it?

Even if you let me bathe with Lafite every day, I also... oh, that would be exhausting, but the problem is that the system doesn't allow it either.

Therefore, definitely not to buy out!

Huang Sibo coughed twice: "Ahem, listen to me first."

"In terms of share, each member's effective ordering will give us 2.5 yuan, and a member watching more than 6 minutes is considered a valid ordering. It will be a total of six months, and the payment will be paid once a month."

"After six months, the movie will become free, but Ellis Island will still pay a certain amount of remuneration according to the incentive plan based on data such as playback volume and popularity."

"If it's safe, it's definitely more worry-free to buy out. If you have strong confidence in the movie, it's okay to share."

Pei Qian's attitude is still firm: "Share!"

He doesn't care how much the movie can get in Airlie Island, he only cares about one thing, no matter how much it is, don't give it to me now!

Anyway, it's a big deal, let's talk about it in the next cycle!

Seeing Mr. Pei's resolute attitude, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce looked at each other and nodded: "Okay, then share. We also feel that we should have confidence in "Beautiful Tomorrow". The signing and sharing model will definitely make more money!"

Pei Qian sighed silently, a little melancholy.

Today... seems like it should be a good day for the movie to be released.

But now why is this...
