Chapter 768: It's a windfall!

Friday, December 2nd.

In the fishing café, Pei Qian drank coffee while checking the weekly work reports submitted to him by various departments.

I don't know why, inexplicably there is a feeling of criticism and folding.

Now Pei Qian understands a little bit why those faint monarchs in ancient times didn't like to go to court and didn't like to criticize and fold, because this is really a very troublesome thing, how can it be cool to eat, drink and have fun every day when you are the shopkeeper!

At present, there are a lot of industries in Tengda, and it is a bit difficult to turn around if the head of each department comes to report to work, and Pei Qian doesn't want to do that, after all, he needs freedom.

Therefore, at present, Pei Qian's supervision of the work of various departments of Tengda is mainly through two ways:

The first is that each department regularly submits weekly work reports, compressing the work of the week to a few dozen words and summarizing it at a high level, so that Pei Qian can roughly know what these departments are planning recently, and take precautions in advance.

The second is to report at the biweekly meeting of the management and compensation students, which will be slightly more detailed, and can also corroborate with the weekly work reports of various departments to ensure the accuracy of the information.

Pei Qian flipped through the weekly reports sent by various departments, and stopped at the weekly report on the side of Yuyang Games.

"Hey, did the new DLC for Lonely Desert Highway and Game Maker go live yesterday?"

"That's a good thing."

“…… I'm not going to be the last to hear about it, am I? ”

In the past two days, in addition to going to class, Pei Qian also spent a lot of time on surprise review.

Because exam week is coming next month, the courses in the junior year are relatively more difficult than the freshman and sophomore years, and there are more exam subjects.

I always couldn't test Ma Yang in the previous exam, which made Pei Qian feel ashamed.

It's always a shame this time, right?

You know, Ma Yang is very busy now, not only to do live broadcasts to "bring goods", but also to scatter coins on Weibo, and now he has become a celebrity in the school, and he may even be recognized when he walks on the road.

That's it, Lao Ma still has to find time to seriously review and prepare for the exam.

As for Pei Qian's side, although everyone in Tengda Group thinks that Mr. Pei is ten times busier than Mr. Ma, Pei Qian knows in his heart that his real working time may only be two hours a day.

That is, the month before the settlement, is the real busy.

Therefore, Pei Qian felt that if he couldn't pass the old horse in this situation, it would be really unreasonable.

What's more, Pei Qian also deliberately borrowed the notes of several girls in the class who studied well this time, which can be said to be fully prepared.

I hadn't taken the old horse exam before, and Pei Qian also reflected on it seriously, feeling that it was mainly because of his wrong posture in review.

borrowed Ma Yang's notes to review, and the upper limit was just one score with him, how could it be exceeded?

Assuming that Ma Yang's maximum notekeeping is 70 points, it is impossible to break through 70 points no matter how much he reviewes!

So this time, Pei Qian borrowed other people's notes very much, just thinking that he could overtake in the corner and beat Ma Yang once in terms of results.

Otherwise, you can't pass the bastard Lao Ma in every exam, how shameful it is! It seems that Pei Qian himself can't even get confused.

Pei Qian, who had been concentrating on reviewing for the past two days, didn't pay attention to the launch of the DLC of these two old games, so he didn't know until he saw the weekly work report of Yuyang Games on the second day of the DLC launch.

"Let me see ...... sales"

"It's been so long since these two broken games, everyone is tired of playing them, and no one is really still buying their DLC, right? Wouldn't it, wouldn't it? ”

"! What's going on? ”

Pei Qian opened the backstage and took a look, and he was not calm for a moment.

The two DLCs released yesterday, "Lonely Desert Road" DLC have sold 250,000 copies, and "Game Producer" DLC has also sold 130,000 copies!

According to the rough estimate of the pricing of 5 yuan and 18 yuan, after deducting the share, tax deduction, etc., the net income brought by these two DLCs to Tengda games is more than 2 million a day!

And that's just one day's income.

These DLCs will continue to generate revenue in the coming week and even month, and sales may even increase in the coming days as the influence spreads!

Pei Qian fell into a daze.

What the hell is going on!

Is he a little confused about the current situation, how long have these two games been out? It's long overdue to be in the player's library, right?

As a result, what do you mean by holding on to these two broken games and not letting go? You're still buying DLC for this game, you're sick!

Pei Qian decided to make DLC for these old games with two intentions:

The first is to disperse the manpower of Yuyang Games and let Wang Xiaobin, who is not good at gameplay, do these DLCs, which can slow down GOG's overseas operations a little bit and give IOI a little respite;

The second is that I feel that there should be no one to play the old game, and secretly update a DLC, which costs money and has no sales, the best of both worlds.

As a result, when I look at it now, I want to be completely blind!

This sales are a bit outrageous!

Now Pei Qian's biggest feeling is confusion and confusion.

Wang Xiaobin, who said yes, is not good at designing gameplay? The old game that was said to be good is no longer played?

What's going on now?

With confusion, Pei Qian went to the forum, and then saw an enthusiastic long comment from a certain player.

Tengda Games: Sincerity creates a perfect example of win-win! 》

"When I heard yesterday that Lonely Desert Highway and The Game Producer had updated DLC, my first reaction was disbelief. These two games have been out of fashion for a long time, and the base game is already free, is it necessary to release DLC? Is it really possible to make money? ”

"I'm a little confused, Tengda has GOG in his hands, and he is still working on new large-scale game projects, so why take the time to develop DLC for these old games that have completed their historical mission?"

"But I understand now that Tengda's operation is full of routines!"

"As we all know, the two games "Lonely Desert Road" and "Game Producer" have been free for a long time, so most people have already gone to pick up and enjoy the plus one, right?"

"Originally, I thought that this kind of free was a very common promotion strategy, after all, the game is almost at the end of its life, and there is not much sales left, so it is a good choice to give up that sales to expand the influence of the game."

"But now I realize that it's a good option to sell DLC for free! It's a complete trap! ”

"It is precisely because the base of the two games is free that the player base of the game has been greatly expanded, so when the new DLC is released, it can achieve such good sales!"

"And what's even more commendable is that on the basis of the original stand-alone gameplay, this DLC has added a new network gameplay, which activates the potential of these two games at once, allowing old players to find new fun! Moreover, this game also buried the easter eggs of Tengda's new game, so there is even more reason to buy it! ”

"That's why I say that Tengda Games is a model of sincerity creating a win-win situation."

"If it were any other company, the old game would have been left to fend for itself, and players would have to throw the game in the game library and eat ashes."

"But Tengda is different, they are willing to update the old game every once in a while, which shows a strong sense of responsibility, so that players feel that Tengda does not give up on any game; On the other hand, it has used interesting gameplay and easter eggs to connect all the old games, and has become a part of the Tengda game empire, and the way of selling DLC for free first has also achieved good sales and revenue. ”

"To be honest, this kind of sincerity is not something that is difficult to do, but most companies are reluctant to do it because they feel that it is not profitable. But Tengda did the opposite, which is enough to see what a maverick company this is! ”

"Don't talk about it, I'll buy these two DLCs first!"

Pei Qian looked at this long comment, and his expression fell into a sluggish state.

Free to sell more DLC?

Don't me, I don't mean that!

If it weren't for the system's stipulation that new products must be priced, would you believe it or not that I would have given all DLC for free?

Pei Qian originally thought that the worst situation was nothing more than to earn some reputation, but he didn't expect that so many players were willing to pay for it!

In fact, at present, the proportion of players who pay to buy DLC in the total sales of the game itself is not high, but because these two games are already free, there are too many people who have received and played them, so now selling a DLC can activate the new gameplay of the game, so many people will be willing to buy!

"Without further ado, this money has to be spent quickly."

"Going on a trip to dream ventures?"

When Pei Qian thought that he was making money again, he felt uncomfortable.

Although there are still nearly two months left before settlement, these two DLCs will continue to make money.

What to do with this money still has to be prepared and planned in advance.

Pei Qian thought about it, but he still had to go to Dream Venture Capital.

The first batch of companies to invest should be able to roughly see whether they are profitable or not. Sell the profitable ones quickly, and chase the unprofitable ones again, and you should be able to spend all the windfall.

……

Dream Ventures, Conference Room.

He Desheng began to report to Mr. Pei on the first round of investment.

"Mr. Pei, at present, we have invested in a total of 11 companies, 2 companies have obvious signs of profitability, 1 company has an obvious profit trend, 3 companies have a good popularity, which has attracted the attention of other investors, and the remaining 5 companies have not moved, but there are still many funds on the company's accounts, and there is no shortage of money for the time being."

"Here's a detailed list of each company, take a look."

Pei Qian stretched out his hand to take the information, and found that it was full of all kinds of complex financial statements, and he couldn't help but feel a big head.

He put the information aside: "I don't look at these things. You can do it directly according to my previous regulations, and if you are already profitable, sell it immediately; If there is a trend of profitability, don't invest any more money, and sell it when it is profitable; If it is not profitable, continue to observe; If the money is spent, continue to pursue. ”

"The money earned after the sale will be directly invested in the following companies in order, and the finances we send can also be withdrawn and then taken charge of other companies."
