Chapter 54: Giving Up Ten Billion Dollars

As a game practitioner, everyone here knows the huge appeal of discounted games to players.

This game has always sold 200, only 100 today, and 200 tomorrow.

If you don't buy it now, you'll lose a lot!

And from the perspective of consumption, when the player chops for the first time, it often can't stop.

Li Ze first made everyone think for a while before continuing: "After players purchase the game on our STAM platform, they can enjoy the update of the game anytime and anywhere, and play online on the high-quality servers we provide. ”

"I believe that the game experience will be very good after the player buys it. As long as their game experience is good enough, these players who take advantage of the discount opportunity to buy the game and enjoy the game will even become our volunteer promoters to tell others about their game experience and bring more users to STAM. ”

"In order to encourage players to be bold and chop, our STAM platform will have a refund function, and within 24 hours of purchase, players will be able to get a direct refund without any questions asked, as long as the game time does not exceed 2 hours."

Hearing Li Ze say that the trial refund function should be opened, everyone was a little incomprehensible.

Tie Xiaohu asked with a puzzled face: "Boss, if someone keeps buying and returning, buys every game, and plays for an hour or two and then refunds, then wouldn't we lose money?" ”

Li Ze shook his head with a deep smile, "Loss? Inexistent! What we offer is just a digital version of the game, and the digital version is almost zero cost. And there will be such a continuous return and refund, only a few of the few, will not have any impact on our overall profitability. ”

"I opened the trial refund function to encourage players to recharge and pay, as long as there is the first time, then the second and third time, it will be easy to come."

After listening to Li Ze's words, everyone was full of optimism about the prospects of the STAM platform.

Yue Na analyzed: "In this way, the platform of the STAM game console will have three major advantages. ”

"First, the strongest performance in the industry at present, on the STAM console, players can get the best picture and operation experience."

"Second, the inclusiveness of all platforms, if successful, our STAM console will be able to play almost any game. Players only need a STAM host, and that's enough. “

"Thirdly, the convenient, fast and cheap STAM built-in store, which can quickly and conveniently buy all the games in our field at a low price, so that the field games and STAM consoles can promote each other's sales."

"Smack! Smack! Bang Bang Bang! ”

Li Ze applauded Yue Na, and at the same time Li Ze added: "The third point you said is not entirely correct, please note that our STAM console is compatible with all games from various game companies. ”

"Excuse me?" Yue Na frowned, and found that things were not simple.

Not only Yue Na, but everyone present, Lu Ke, Eric Hu, Tie Xiaohu and An Yuan, all smelled a trace of surprise from Li Ze's words.

"That's right!" Li Ze's voice suddenly became three points high-pitched, "Our STAM built-in store sells more than just domain games. ”

"I will work with all the game companies in the market, large companies, small companies, medium companies, and even some private mod groups, independent studios and individual game creators."

"All of the above, we can sign a cooperation agreement as long as they want to. Get their games, mods, and some fun software on sale on the STAM built-in store. As for the income from the sale, hehe, share it according to the agreement! ”

"The all-inclusive STAM built-in store, this is the STAM host, the most profitable and the most able to cause the industrial revolution!"

"Imagine if players could buy the most complete and discounted games in the STAM built-in store, and then download them at high speed, play them to their heart's content, play online, update automatically, and communicate with people in the game community."

"So, will our STAM host really become the owner of a player?"

The blueprint drawn by Li Ze was too majestic, and everyone was stunned for a while.

Silence, suffocating silence.

But at the same time as the silence, the air smelled of excitement. The game practitioners present all felt a great future from Li Ze's words.

It wasn't until the masked man, Eric, spoke nonsense that the exciting silence was broken.

"In that case, it's really good, we can even rule the whole industry."

"But there's a problem, our hosting, our built-in store, our sales and service, if it develops like that, our advantage is just too great. Other game companies are not willing to watch us dominate the industry like this. ”

"These companies won't be willing to license their games to us for sale."

"And if there are only realm games, then the charm of the STAM built-in store will be reduced by at least 90%."

Li Zeshen nodded thoughtfully, "You're right, our competitors will never be willing to license their games to us and help us become bigger." In fact, by the time we announce the STAM Built-in Store, they'll even ban their games from the STAM console. ”

"I'm not talking about selling their games, but by not allowing players to play their games on STAM consoles."

"When the time comes, our STAM will even be in a situation where there is a lack of games."

Yasuhara, who had never interjected, was also anxious at this time, she bit the tip of her pen and asked worriedly, "Ah, what should I do then?" It's really ......."

Li Ze took a sip of oolong tea, sat down and smiled calmly, "Our competitors won't authorize, but not competitors' companies will." ”

"The new console in the field, STAM, will be open source, free of licensing fees, and allow anyone to freely make games on the STAM console."

As soon as Li Ze's words came out, everyone was shocked, and the chocolate bar in Tie Xiaohu's hand was frightened.

"What? Open source with no licensing fees? Boss, that's a bloody loss! ”

Eric Hu also said: "Boss, if you don't charge a license fee, do you know what you gave up?" ”

Li Ze smiled slightly, "I know, I may have given up 10 billion US dollars, and if the STAM host rules the market, maybe I will give up more." ”

Calming everyone down a little, Li Ze continued: "Any company, anyone, can develop games for STAM consoles for free. Then, after review, you can sell directly on STAM's built-in store. During the promotion phase of STAM hosting, the sales share charged by the domain is ......"

"Zero."

"Boss, what do you mean by zero?" Tie Xiaohu asked with a look of astonishment.

"Zero, it's free, no money!"
