Chapter 53: The Temptation of the Female Assistant
Chen Ping nodded with a smile, and then said: "This is there! I have already told Director Lu Dongyu before, as long as the game "Plants vs. Zombies" brings us a certain amount of income and has enough funds, after the company has undergone some expansion, we will naturally start to develop other games!" However, in the early stage, due to the lack of funds and manpower, we will only make stand-alone games for the time being, but please believe that the goal of Guangyu Technology Company is not only to break through the world in the stand-alone game industry, but we will eventually focus on large-scale online games, there is no doubt about it!"
Luo Xueshan smiled and nodded, and then made a gesture gently, and the cameraman and others next to her immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the whole atmosphere eased instantly.
Then Luo Xueshan smiled and said to Chen Ping: "Mr. Chen, our interview has officially ended! Thank you Mr. Chen for your cooperation!"
Chen Ping also said politely.
Although the interview was over, the two sides still talked about some other topics, although they were also inseparable from the game problems, but this time, it seemed a lot more casual.
Just as the two were talking, the female assistant next to Luo Xueshan suddenly smiled softly and asked, "Mr. Chen, can I ask you a question?"
Chen Ping's eyes froze slightly, and then he looked at the female assistant with a smile on his face, and said kindly: "Of course, you can ask!"
A faint look of surprise flashed in the female assistant's eyes, in fact, she didn't really want to ask Chen Ping any important questions, she just wanted to test Chen Ping's attitude.
After Luo Xueshan told her her guess yesterday, she became a little more interested in Chen Ping, and now she also wants to test Chen Ping's attitude to see if Chen Ping has seen his identity?
However, seeing Chen Ping's very modest attitude, the girl's heart couldn't help but be a little sure, and then she smiled softly: "Mr. Chen, since Guangyu Technology Company is going to seek greater development in the future, does this office seem a little small now? Moreover, the economy of Anhe City is not too developed, and many things are not very convenient to do, so Chen always has any other plans?"
Chen Ping immediately smiled slightly, and didn't think there was anything abrupt about this question, but just smiled casually: "This is natural, I think Editor-in-Chief Luo also knows, I have just experienced the college entrance examination, and now I have graduated from high school, and I am about to enter university, and the school I applied for is Jiang University, which is in Pingjiang City, the capital of Dongjiang Province!" When I go to university, the company naturally can't continue to be here, it will definitely move to Pingjiang City, at present, this is just a temporary office location for us, and when I arrive at Jiangda University, I will start the company's relocation matters, after all, there is no online game under Guangyu Technology Company, so there is no trouble in relocating servers, and the relocation is also extremely simple, taking advantage of this opportunity, the company will move to Pingjiang City, and it will be easier to develop!"
Hearing Chen Ping's answer, the girl nodded lightly and didn't ask anything more.
In fact, this question is not important, the girl just casually found an excuse and asked Chen Ping.
When it was time for dinner, Chen Ping took everyone in Lu Dongyu's team almost out of the nest, leaving only one technician to sit in the company, and the others all accompanied Luo Xueshan and others out for a meal, and chatted until seven or eight o'clock in the evening, and then dispersed.
After Luo Xueshan and the others returned to the hotel, the girl suddenly whispered to Luo Xueshan: "Sister Luo, it seems that this Chen Ping really sees my identity!"
Luo Xueshan shook her head with a smile, and then said: "That's not necessarily! I think that although he noticed the difference in your identity, he hasn't guessed your exact identity yet, otherwise, his attitude towards you would not be what it is now!"
The girl thought about it and felt that what Luo Xueshan said seemed to make some sense, but she didn't say much, but she was a little more curious about Chen Ping.
Luo Xueshan and her team came to Anhe City, not only to do an exclusive interview with Chen Ping's Guangyu Technology Company, but most importantly, to reach a cooperation with Guangyu Technology Company, so that the game "Plants vs. Zombies" was taken offline from the original seven websites and officially logged in to the game Star website!
This is the real reason why Luo Xueshan rushed all the way to Anhe City, otherwise, just doing an exclusive interview would not have allowed Luo Xueshan to rush to Anhe City with so many people!
Chen Ping naturally understands this very well, but in the process of the interview before, Chen Ping did not mention this matter, and Luo Xueshan seemed to avoid talking about it.
However, both of them know that after today's interview, they will enter into formal negotiations tomorrow.
The next day, that is, on the 25th, Chen Ping came to Guangyu Technology Company in the morning and met Luo Xueshan again.
There was a detailed discussion about the launch of the game "Plants vs. Zombies" on the game Starry Sky website, in fact, this matter was not so troublesome to talk about, and it only took about two hours to negotiate all the cooperation details.
The game star website is a large website, and unlike the original seven small websites, it doesn't require Chen Ping to pay anything, but if you need the game star website to promote the game "Plants vs. Zombies", you still need to pay a certain fee.
Chen Ping had already thought about it before, and had even discussed this matter with Lu Dongyu.
Other games are launched on large game sites such as Star Star, which need to share profits with the website, although the proportion of sharing is not too high, but the more popular the game, the higher the revenue of the website.
However, from the very beginning, the game "Plants vs. Zombies" was not a charging model, and it was just a profit sharing, which was a bit unsuitable for this game.
Chen Ping didn't have a good solution to this, but when he negotiated with Luo Xueshan, Luo Xueshan proposed an effective solution, which was to pay the publicity fee directly!
Just like when Chen Ping launched the seven game websites before, the publicity costs that need to be paid are different for different publicity efforts, and after the number of downloads and rating levels of the game Plants vs. Zombies reaches a certain level, Chen Ping's publicity fee will be reduced a lot.
With the current popularity of the game Plants vs. Zombies, Chen Ping needs to pay a daily publicity fee of 150,000 yuan, and when the number of downloads reaches 35 million, and 10 million, the publicity fee can be reduced by 20,000 yuan in turn!
In other words, when the game Plants vs. Zombies has more than 10 million downloads, Chen Ping only needs to pay 90,000 yuan a day for publicity.
Similarly, on the game star website, there are currently game users for the game itself rating system, the scoring system reaches more than eight points, you can reduce the publicity fee of 30,000 yuan again, and if you reach more than nine points, you can also reduce the publicity fee of 30,000 yuan, if you can reach more than 9.5 points, the same is true!
In other words, if the number of downloads of the game "Plants vs. Zombies" can reach the download level of 10 million, and at the same time get a review score of 9.5 or more, all publicity fees can be reduced!
Of course, the cost of promotion will be calculated once a day and settled once a month.
It's all written into the contract, and while it sounds complicated, in reality, as long as the back-office data is monitored and accurately recorded, none of this is a problem.
Chen Ping also agreed with the way of cooperation proposed by Luo Xueshan.
However, in terms of the publicity cost of cooperation, Chen Ping and Luo Xueshan still argued with reason.
In fact, the daily publicity cost proposed by Luo Xueshan was as high as about 300,000, but after Chen Ping analyzed it from all aspects, Luo Xueshan could only agree with Chen Ping's opinion, and finally reduced the publicity cost to 150,000 yuan on the basic line.
This kind of publicity cost is not not high, although compared with the first day of Chen Ping's cooperation with the seven small websites, the publicity cost of the first day has dropped by half, but in fact, Chen Ping knows very well that the publicity effect of all the seven small websites combined, is not as good as the game star website!
You know, all the users of the seven small websites combined, at most there are only millions of users, but the game star website is just one website, but the number of users has exceeded 30 million!
The level of the platform is different, and Chen Ping's contribution is different.
In the process of negotiation, Luo Xueshan also found that Chen Ping's young age is not to be seen, but Chen Ping is also very good at this kind of communication skills in negotiation, although he is not an expert in negotiation, but this kind of negotiation skills obviously should not be something that a high school graduate who has just walked out of school can have!
After the past two days of contact, Luo Xueshan's impression of Chen Ping has changed more and more, and she has found more and more that this young man is completely different from ordinary people, and his ability cannot be judged by his age at all.
After the negotiation was over, Chen Ping and Luo Xueshan both breathed a sigh of relief, and then, Chen Ping said with a smile: "Editor-in-chief Luo, as I said the day before yesterday, if you want to have a good time in Anhe City for a few days, I can act as a tour guide for the whole process, even if I don't have time, I can let the company send someone to accompany you to have a good time!"
Luo Xueshan shook her head with a smile, rejected Chen Ping's proposal, and said with a chuckle: "Mr. Chen doesn't have to be so polite, we are just here to do business in Anhe City, this time the event held by the game star website needs to sign contracts with 16 game companies, dozens of games are launched at the same time, our schedule is very tight, we are going to the next target city this afternoon, so we don't have to trouble Mr. Chen!"
When Chen Ping heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then nodded with a smile, and said to Luo Xueshan: "Since this is the case, then I wish Editor-in-Chief Luo a smooth journey, and look forward to our next meeting and follow-up cooperation!"
Luo Xueshan also said a few polite words, and then Chen Ping sent Luo Xueshan and his party away.
In the afternoon, Chen Ping also had to accompany Lin Yuwei to see the decoration companies in Anhe City, so he simply arranged for Lu Dongyu and two other technicians of the company to send Luo Xueshan away, and Luo Xueshan didn't mind this.
Chen Ping's words were already very thorough, and he didn't mean to despise Luo Xueshan in the slightest, but because he had something to do, he delayed the send-off.
This kind of trivial matter will not affect the cooperative relationship between the two parties, and Luo Xueshan can also understand it.
A young entrepreneur like Chen Ping must be busy with countless affairs in the early days of his business, and it is impossible to be by their side all the time, even if Luo Xueshan is now Chen Ping's most important partner!
Luo Xueshan was also able to understand this and didn't care.
After sending off Luo Xueshan and others, Chen Ping also completely relaxed, and then left Guangyu Technology Company.
