46. The president is really discerning!
Due to the extraordinary results achieved by the previous work "Onmyoji 1" and the accumulation of a good reputation, many players expressed great expectations for 2.
On the first day of the game's release, there was a steady stream of players who came to the game store to buy the cassette.
It was sold out on the first day, and the phone on Pokeni's side was all blown up.
Every day, the most common thing you hear in the company is the ringing of the phone.
Colleagues in the marketing department are overwhelmed.
"Okay, 2000 copies of "Onmyoji 2", can you tell me the address?"
"Okay. Good. No problem. β
"Okay, 4,000 copies of "Onmyoji 2", can you tell me the address?"
β¦β¦
Kazuma Takahashi, the chief operating officer, was busy to death.
There was no one in this position before, and Takahashi Kazuma was also the person recruited by Qing Zhiyuan after the last time "Onmyoji" became popular.
Although he is said to be the head of operations, in fact, the entire operation and marketing department is only Kazuma Takahashi.
After all, it is a small company of more than 20 people, and everyone in Neon has a lot of work to do, not to mention the large workload, and the requirements for efficiency are also very high.
If you don't finish it, you won't be able to leave work on time.
Fortunately, this position is intermittently busy, and when the game is in sales, it is as busy as a dog, and it is almost not used in the game production process, so it is better.
In order to be able to cope with the current situation, Qingzhiyuan asked colleagues who had completed development to help participate.
Answer the phone, confirm the order, confirm the payment, and then contact the processing factory to burn the game cartridge and ship the goods......
The whole process is very tedious and tiring.
But it is precisely because of the tiredness that everyone's faces are unusually happy.
There are many orders, which means that the game is really going to sell well!
The big sale of the game means a steady stream of -
Money!
After HR Akane Ayase answered the phone, she looked at Qing Zhiyuan with a smile with sparkling eyes, "President, the game is going to be popular!" β
Hum.
Qing Zhiyuan let out a soft snort, "Isn't that how it should be?" β
Tsk, Akane Ayase has a look of seeing.
The president is a calm guy on the surface, but in fact, sweat comes out of his palms.

Hiroyuki Hattori lit a cigarette in the president's office, and as soon as he took a puff, the secretary Fujiki knocked on the door and came in.
"President, the game store on Akihabara Street called to say that Onmyoji 2 was sold out, and asked if you could add more."
"Sold out?"
"Nani?"
Hiroyuki Hattori felt very incredible, and with a shake of his fingers, the cigarette butt fell off.
"Ah, hot hot hot ......"
He bounced up from his chair and quickly slapped his pants with both hands.
A small hole is visible to the naked eye.
Fujiki didn't see it, and quickly turned his head, holding back a smile and suffocating his hard work.
She's professionally trained, and she can't cause this displeasure in front of the president, although she won't be fired from her job, but she will definitely be scolded.
"Which game were you talking about?"
After arranging his clothes, Hiroyuki Hattori asked suspiciously, "You must have said something wrong, it's actually "Age of Discovery", right?" β
Glorious games, he has the bottom in his heart, this company has always been very stable in making games.
Since the beginning of the Three Kingdoms, it has been a continuous masterpiece, and this time "The Age of Discovery" is also highly anticipated.
"No, it's not. President. Fujiki shook her head, and although she saw the puzzled look on the president's face, she still dutifully said, "It's the sequel to Onmyoji produced by Pokeni Company, Onmyoji 2."
She didn't know that the president was not optimistic about "Onmyoji".
After all, the "Onmyoji" series was "discovered" by Hattori, and before other dealers noticed the game, Hattori Hiroyuki was the first to buy the game of P Company.
From Onmyoji to Famous Academy, and then to Onmyoji 2.
If it wasn't for the company's potential, how could the president make such a big move?
When Hattori Yuyuki heard the name of "Onmyoji 2", he was a little confused.
"Moreover, not only the Akihabara Street branch, but other branches throughout Tokyo are sold out."
Onmyoji 2 itself dealers only have more than 5,000 copies of the goods through Pokeni, and under normal circumstances, this purchase volume is actually enough.
Dealers will not buy too much at the beginning, in case they can't sell it in their hands, it will be a blood loss, so how much is to take some experimentally, and then see if they need to replenish according to the follow-up sales.
But it's really rare to sell out on the first day like this.
Hattori Hiroyuki's eyes were glazed for a moment.
pokeniοΌ
Onmyoji?!
Nani?!
Just this broken game, did it sell out on the first day it was put on the shelves?
Sizzle......
It's just horrible.
Death is wide. Terrible.
He gritted his teeth, bent down to pick up the cigarette butt on the ground, and put it in the ashtray to extinguish it.
Good guy, it's the opposite of him, isn't it?
Back then, when I wasn't optimistic about "Onmyoji", that game exploded directly and sold 100,000 copies.
I think pokeni is very good, and he added to the stock of "Famous Academy", and it turned out to be like an ice cave, and there was no temperature at all.
At this time, Uncle Ben didn't believe it, and "Onmyoji 2" was killed again.
I've never judged it right when I co-authored it?!
Just when Hattori Hiroyuki felt extremely uncomfortable, Fujiki, the secretary standing next to him, folded his hands in front of his chest and gave him an appreciative look.
"President, you have a good eye." Fujiki said with a smile.
"Huh?" This time, Hattori Hiroyuki was even more confused.
"At that time, when other dealers were not optimistic about Onmyoji, and Pokeni was not interested, and there was no fame at all, you already saw the potential of the other party.
And place a heavy bet to buy.
President, you are not only far-sighted and insightful, but also very courageous. β
Ah~sizzle~sizzle
Hiroyuki Hattori gasped a few breaths of cold air, and for a while he didn't know what kind of expression to react to.
After squeezing his eyebrows for a moment, a smug smile appeared on his face.
President Hattori sat back in his chair, complacent on the surface, but in fact he was extremely disgusted and angry in his heart and said, "Of course, otherwise how do you think I got to the position of president?" β
"Uh-huh. I admire you even more. β
Fujiki is speaking from the heart.
In the great tide of the times, foresight is more important than strength.
Especially the person at the helm of a company, as long as he chooses well, then he can be invincible.
From this point of view, Hattori Hiroyuki is really talented.
"There's a lot to learn from the president." Fujiki said.
"Hehe, hehe." Hiroyuki Hattori smirked twice, not knowing how to respond.
"......," Fujiki asked tentatively.
"Restocking. Call Pokeni. Hiroyuki Hattori said, "Let the marketing department evaluate how much is needed." β
"Okay!" Fujiki nodded.
