Chapter 78: The Origami Company's Reliance

The initial marketing of Mercury smart screen was quite successful,In the first month of the official release,Sufficient orders were obtained,Ensure the normal operation of the electronics factory。

And the reputation of Mercury smart screen is also being opened little by little. However, this thing is not like a mobile phone or computer, which is eagerly concerned by users, so it is impossible to explode overnight, but the growth trend is obvious.

As the electronics factory got on the right track, Meng Xiaobai found that his money was not enough.

In the design and manufacturing process of the smart screen,Many new parts and designs are used,These are simple versions after the iron plate design,Limited to the manufacturing process,Almost can only reach this level。

You know, on the planet Cybertron, holographic projection technology has been used millions of years ago.

If you want to make a higher-end product, you have to invest more, and the manufacturing process, hardware level, etc., must all be improved.

And the improvement of these things, even if a basic electronic component wants to get a breakthrough, it is estimated that there will be no results if you don't spend hundreds of millions of yuan on R&D and manufacturing.

"I'm really getting more and more inflated!" At home, Meng Xiaobai said to himself, "Spending money actually uses 100 million yuan as a unit! Sure enough, people's hearts can't be satisfied!"

"Master, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Human ambition and desire are also the source of power for social progress. Maruko suddenly said a philosophical sentence, "If everyone is Buddhist, won't this society stop moving?"

"That makes sense!Xiao Maruko, you're really getting smarter and smarter!" Meng Xiaobai praised.

"φ (>ω<*) Thank you hosts. Maruko said happily.

"In any case, if I want to make more advanced technology products, I have to have my own research institute. Meng Xiaobai thought that if there is no R&D institution, some more high-tech products will inevitably attract attention out of thin air, so R&D institutions must have them, and they must be the top one!

"I had to start a project, set up a lab, and then gradually upgrade and expand to establish various types of research institutes. It seems that we still have to keep making money!"

Meng Xiaobai immediately called Huang Yu and asked him to draw up a plan for the "laboratory". He plans to set up a research laboratory for electronic components in the electronics factory first, and at the same time set up a software technology research and development team in the deep space technology company.

This will be used as the prototype of a research institution, and when there is money to invest, it will further develop and grow.

......

While preparing the laboratory, Meng Xiaobai is also trying to make the company expand its profit channels.

The companies under his name, Deep Space Digital and Siben Electronics Factory, are growing rapidly, but the growth rate of the "Look at Me" APP at the beginning began to slow down.

It has been more than half a year since the launch of the "Look Me" APP, and both the growth rate of users and the increase in advertising revenue have begun to slow down gradually, and the company's management has been looking for a new profit model.

Deep Space Technology Co., Ltd., in the conference room of the marketing department, Liao Rong, deputy director of the marketing department, is conducting a business negotiation.

The object of his negotiation is Zhongjiang Origami Network Technology Co., Ltd. This is an online company that focuses on women's interactive entertainment, and to put it simply, it is a company specializing in women's games.

"If you are a full-fledged agent, you must add 20% of the game revenue!" said He Zhengtong, a business representative of Zhongjiang Origami Network Technology Co., Ltd., who leaned back in his chair with a cold expression, "Either our company operates this game, and we will cooperate with the channel." ”

Liao Rong took a deep breath, he had a headache, this was the most troublesome negotiation he had encountered since he joined the marketing department of Deep Space Technology.

The company requires to open up profit channels, in addition to e-commerce cooperation and advertising revenue, they plan to use the user traffic of the "Watch Me" app to monetize, and games are a good choice.

This origami network technology company based in Zhongjiang is very good at making female-oriented games, which highly overlaps with the user group of the "Look Me" app.

In particular, their upcoming new game, Shiny Nuan Nuan, is a dress-up game where players can change various costumes for their characters.

The "Look at Me" app is a smart dress-up software, and this game is a match made in heaven!

And "Shiny Nuan Nuan" is the fourth series of dress-up games launched by Origami Company, and the "Love and Maker", which was once all the rage on the Internet, is their work.

Including the director Gao Yuan, the colleagues in the marketing department unanimously agreed that if the "Look Me" APP represented this "Shiny Nuan" game, it would definitely be a success.

So they found Origami Network Technology Co., Ltd. to negotiate, and they have been talking for more than half a month, but they have not been able to achieve a satisfactory result for both parties.

"Mr. He, if you follow your requirements, the profit margin is almost completely in your hands. Our company is not only responsible for publicity, drainage, but also responsible for providing services and maintenance, which is a thankless thing, who will do it?" Liao Rong emphasized again, "We prefer to pay game copyright fees on an annual basis. ”

Pay the game copyright on an annual basis, and then act as an agent for this "Shiny Nuan", this is the idea of the marketing department of Deep Space Technology.

However, origami companies do not think so, and they not only charge an agency fee, but also 20% of the game's profits. Liao Rong will definitely not agree to such a request, after deducting this 20 percent, they will hardly make any money, if they do not manage well, maybe they will lose money, it is really not worth it.

"That's our bottom line, and if you don't agree, there's nothing to talk about. He Zhengtong didn't care if the agreement was reached, because their company didn't plan to hand over the game to the Deep Space Technology agent in the first place. If the other party can agree to such an excessive demand, they don't mind charging a little more.

"This bottom line ......" Liao Rong smiled bitterly in his heart, this bottom line is too high!

"Agency is a win-win thing. Liao Rong continued to find advantages for himself, "Our 'Look Me' APP and the users of this game are highly overlapped, and if we are an agent, our traffic will make you greatly benefit from several other games under your umbrella." ”

"If we talk about the advantage of traffic. The corners of He Zhengtong's mouth raised slightly, and he paused and said, "I think, penguins should have an advantage over you, right?"

"Do you want to let Penguin Games be an agent?" Liao Rong was shocked, if the other party gave Penguin Company an agent, they really couldn't compete, whether it was traffic or capital!

"I can't say exactly. He Zhengtong put on a posture of not talking, and said: "I might as well reveal that we are already talking to Penguin Games, and Penguin Games also wants to get the agency of "Shiny Nuan Nuan". We don't necessarily refuse, and besides, even if we don't give them agents, we will definitely cooperate with them in the channel, and your user traffic is compared to Penguin Games, so I don't need to say more, right?"

"So, your conditions are completely unattractive to us!" He Zhengtong easily put his hands on the table, he thought that he had taken the initiative, and now the other party only had two options: agree or reject!
