Pei Qian is basically satisfied with this plan.
After all, Lu Mingliang has a key advantage that Huang Sibo does not have, that is, he is obedient and does not make up his mind.
Whatever Pei Qian asked him to do, he would do it honestly, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults.
However, this also brings about a problem, that is, lack of aggressiveness.
Just like this plan, the money spent is too little.
When the pricing has been determined, of course, the more you spend, the better!
Pei Qian thought about it for a while.
""Lonely Desert Highway", adding three sets of new map scenes is too few, adding ten sets."
""Ghost General" has only updated ten generals, which is also Too few, here are fifty."
"Although "Game Producer" only has one set of scene styles, how can it be on the same level as the previous set?"
"Ruan Guangjian wants to paint the original painting of "Ghost General", so he may not have time. Then, find a big boss with the same price as him, and then double the working hours. We must craft it carefully and strive to make the new scene better than the original one. That version!"
"As for "Sea Fortress"...well..."
"In addition to this new epic weapon, there are two more hours of story mode. One more new scene, three new characters, and ten new guns will be added."
"That's it, hurry up and start production, and try to update it before June 18th."
Lu Mingliang was a little confused.
He has scheduled very little update content, mainly because he is worried that the DLC will not be sold enough to support the income!
According to Lu Mingliang’s plan, there is a ceiling for investment in updating content.
Take "Lonely Desert Highway" as an example. A scene template costs 20,000 yuan. The original plan was to add three sets of scenes. The DLC only costs one yuan, and 120,000 copies of the DLC must be sold. Get your money back!
As a result, Pei Qian has directly released ten sets, and now he has to sell 400,000 sets of DLC to make back the money...
Isn't this nonsense?
The original painting design of "Ghost General" will be handed over to Ruan Guangjian. Of course, Ruan Guangjian has many friends who can help with the painting, but no matter what, the price is definitely not low.
Previously, the original paintings of military commanders in "Ghost General" were 4 original paintings of one military commander, costing 3,000 yuan. Now that Ruan Guangjian's worth has increased, the fees are naturally higher. Mr. Pei insists that he doesn't want a friendly price and must pay according to the market price. No matter what, it still costs 5,000 yuan a set.
These fifty generals are 250,000.
This set of generals sells for 5 yuan, which means that the cost can only be recovered by selling 100,000 sets.
As for "Sea Fortress", new plots, new scenes, new characters, and new guns are almost all given to players for free. The only charging point is the new epic weapon, and it is also Limited edition!
"Mr. Pei, this...may not be able to recover the cost..." LuMingliang looked at the quickly calculated numbers in the small book and felt guilty.
Pei Qian smiled calmly: "No."
"Remember, treat others with sincerity. If you treat players with sincerity, the players will naturally respond to you with sincerity. ."
"Besides, what if we can't recover the cost? The players have given us so much money, so we should subsidize them appropriately."
p>Lu Mingliang blinked in confusion, feeling that Mr. Pei's words were particularly righteous and open-minded.
It just feels like something is wrong.
"Okay, time is tight and the tasks are heavy. Take the time to assign tasks and take action. They must be completed before June 18th."
The main reason for setting June 18th is because of this is the last working day of the penultimate week before settlement.
The 19th and 20th are weekends, and from the 21st to the 23rd, Pei Qian plans to set aside three days to deal with emergencies.
Before the 24th, all research and development work must be completed and all DLC must be updated, otherwise the settlement will be affected.
Pei Qian left the conference room gracefully, and Lu Mingliang hurriedly assigned tasks.
Although this workload is much larger than the previously planned version, most of it is due to pressure from art resources, so if you rush it, it can be completed within the deadline.
The only problem is that I spent a little too much money.
……
Thursday, May 6th.
Ma Yang and Zhang Yuan came to Pei Qian's office and introduced him to several promising sites.
Ma Yang's laptop was connected to the projector in the office, and the location of the Internet cafe and some detailed information were displayed on the projection screen.
This time it was mainly Zhang Yuan who helped select a few better locations; Ma Yang also randomly found a few to make up the numbers.
To open a total of four new stores, Pei Qian requested to find ten locations, and now they have all been found.
This time, Zhang Yuan also held his breath.
Why are all Mr. Pei’s other projects doing well, but Moyu Internet Cafe is the only one that keeps losing money?
How embarrassing!
And Mr. Pei still values us so much and trusts us so much, so we have to work harder to turn losses into profits!
Opening a branch this time is a good opportunity.
In Zhang Yuan’s view, the reason why the previous store had been losing money was that location selection was definitely a big problem.
There are no large business districts, no high-end office buildings, and no high-end residential areas around.
There are not enough high-end consumers within a few kilometers around. Who can support the consumption of these high-end Internet cafes?
We can’t expect wealthy people to drive here just to have a drink at a bar?
Of course, some particularly awesome bars can indeed do this, but Moyu Internet Cafe is not a serious bar;A mixture of Internet cafes, bars, coffee shops, small restaurants, and bookstores...
Without outstanding advantages, it is impossible to attract people to come from all over the world to consume. It is not such a profitable way.
So after reflection, Zhang Yuan felt that he had to work hard on location selection this time, and it must be in a popular business district!
"Mr. Pei, I recommend three places in particular this time."
"Here, the south gate of Handong University is very close to several male dormitories, and opposite A high-end community.”
“Although there are already several Internet cafes here, they are still always full. Our Moyu Internet Cafe has a good environment and good computer configurations. It will definitely attract college students who are more concerned about the environment. The rich second generation with a certain financial ability.”
“This place was originally a coffee shop, which is very suitable for our Internet cafe environment. The place is not too small. This is my first choice. ! "
Pei Qian didn't say anything. He knew this place very well. After all, he was studying at Handong University, and the house Assistant Xin rented for him was across the road.
The Internet cafes here are indeed always full, and Zhang Yuan is right about this.
But... Pei Qian will definitely not choose this place.
If you choose here, if you really make money, who will it be?
Seeing that Pei Qian had no reaction, Zhang Yuan had no choice but to continue introducing the next location.
“This is the largest shopping mall in Jingzhou City, on the ground floor. The disadvantage is that the rent is very, very expensive. But I have researched and found that there are not many places to rest in this shopping mall. Many people go shopping with their girlfriends or wives. It’s too miserable for many men to have a place to sit when they are tired.”
“If we open an Internet cafe here, then these successful people will go shopping with their wives and come to the Internet cafe when they are tired. Go online and drink coffee, your spending power is definitely high.”
“With this amount of people, even if the rent is high, I can still make money!”
Pei Qian still had no reaction.
Zhang Yuan felt even more guilty and could only continue to introduce them one by one.
As the introduction goes on, the locations of these shops have become increasingly miserable.
There is nothing we can do about it. Pei Qian has limited the branches of Moyu Internet Cafe to Jingzhou City, and there are many restrictions. It is already quite difficult to find so many shops to be resold.
After all the introductions, Zhang Yuan looked at Pei Qian with some anxiety.
Mr. Pei has been silent. What does this mean?
Are you not satisfied?
Pei Qian nodded approvingly: "Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Zhang Yuan let out a sigh of relief.
Mr. Pei is not dissatisfied, great!
Pei Qian looked at the projection screen and praised: "I think the last four places you introduced are all good."
The last four places?
Zhang Yuan turned his head and looked at the screen, then looked at Mr. Pei, feeling a little confused for a moment.
These...They are all used to make up the numbers!
