In a rental house.
Pei Qian, who had just woken up from his nap, turned over in bed, took a look at his phone and found an unread message.
"Mr. Pei, I would like to excuse you. I have encountered a setting problem and would like to ask for advice. Judging from the results of the current discussion, cutting off the payment points of the game will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction among wealthy players. Please tell me this. How should we solve it?"
Pei Qian rubbed his sleepy eyes and whispered: "Who is this?"
Looking carefully, it was Ye Zhizhou, who he had just promoted. The chief planner of the Yangyang game.
Pei Qian gave him the "Sword of Shang Fang" and allowed him to fire employees directly by making snitches. Naturally, he also had to add a friend, otherwise it would be inconvenient to contact him.
As a result, Ye Zhizhou didn't talk about dismissing other people, but instead asked a question about game design.
Pei Qian read the question again.
Q: Cutting off game payment points will cause dissatisfaction among players who have already paid. How should we solve this problem?
This is actually quite understandable. "War Hymn" is a krypton gold game. Rich people spend tens of thousands of money in this game, and finally crush other people in combat power.
As a result, all the payment points for the game have been cut off. I will no longer be able to experience the pleasure of casually killing people. So why don’t I just ask for a refund and quit the game?
Of course, refunds are not possible.
You have to go to Du Ruijie to get the money Du Rujie collected.
If I quit traveling...
That would be great, it’s a deal!
Mr. Pei really doesn’t like you people who forcefully give away money.
Again, want to send money to Tenda? There are no doors!
Or, you tycoons just convert me into free players.
Or, stop playing this game.
Well, perfect!
Pei Qian grabbed his phone and typed in a daze: "It's up to them."
Then he threw the phone on the pillow and continued to sleep.
......
On the Yangyang Games side, in the conference room, everyone was eagerly waiting for news from President Pei.
Ye Zhizhou sat at the top of the conference table, staring at the phone screen and waiting for Mr. Pei's reply, feeling a little uneasy.
Mr. Pei did not reply immediately, probably because he was busy with work.
After all, Yangyang Games is only one of Mr. Pei’s many industries, and it is not that close, so the priority is probably lower.
As for others, reactions varied.
After hearing Ye Zhizhou's change plan, some people found it interesting and full of motivation;
Some people were still unconvinced by Ye Zhizhou, but they did not dare to show it.
After all, Wang Xiaobin, the oldest person in the design team, plans to cooperate with Ye Zhizhou. Even if the others want to cause trouble, they have little appeal; not to mention that Ye Zhizhou can communicate directly with Mr. Pei., this is the biggest deterrent.
Some people even suspected that Ye Zhizhou deliberately asked Mr. Pei this question at the meeting to establish his authority!
He is hinting to everyone that I can contact Mr. Pei directly, and you all should stay calm.
Therefore, the atmosphere in the conference room was quite serious, and Ye Zhizhou, a new official, could still hold his own.
"Ding."
The prompt sounded, and Ye Zhizhou hurriedly looked at the reply sent by Mr. Pei.
There are only four simple words: "Whatever they want."
Just... like this?
Ye Zhizhou was in a daze.
Wang Xiaobin, who was sitting next to him, came over and asked with concern: "Has Mr. Pei replied?"
Ye Zhizhou turned the screen of his phone to Wang Xiaobin: "Just four. A word."
"Brother Wang, look at this..."
Ye Zhizhou was a little confused.
It stands to reason that what Mr. Pei has given us must be implemented to the letter.
But if you don’t care about these rich players at all, isn’t that asking for your own death?
In national war games like "War Song", the recharge amount of wealthy players even accounts for more than 80% of all recharges. Abandoning wealthy players means giving up 80% of your income.
This is not a strong man cutting off his wrist, this is suicide!
It is precisely for this reason that everyone discussed it for a long time at the meeting, but they were still unable to find a solution that had the best of both worlds.
Cutting payment points will inevitably affect the interests of wealthy players. If wealthy players are unhappy, game revenue will plummet.
In other words, no matter how you analyze it, Mr. Pei’s approach will only lead to a sharp drop in game revenue and accelerate the decline of the two already unsustainable games.
Since he had no other options, Ye Zhizhou made up his mind to ask Mr. Pei for advice.
In the end, Mr. Pei replied with these four words.
The final solution turned out to be... no solution?
Let these wealthy players fend for themselves?
How this is...
How courageous!
Wang Xiaobin originally frowned, but then slowly relaxed.
"Mr. Pei is really brave, I admire him!"
"There is great wisdom hidden in these four words!"
Wang Xiaobin sighed sincerely.
Ye Zhizhou was a little confused.
Sure enough, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure.
This kind of profound thing can only be explained by an experienced senior designer like Wang Xiaobin!
Wang Xiaobin cleared his throat and said to everyone: "There is no need to discuss this issue anymore. President Pei has just given a solution: 'Whatever they want'!"
"Also That is to say, we don’t need to worry about the impact of this change on local tyrants.”
“After the new version is launched, the old server’sThe data of the local tyrants will not change and they still have the current combat power. But then all the recharge entrances were blocked, and they could no longer increase their combat power through large recharges. ”
“Players in the new server will stand on the same starting line and follow our plan for the new version. ”
Everyone looked at each other in shock.
That’s it?
Isn’t this still not solving the problem?
The local tyrants stopped playing and recharging. What should I do?
Wang Xiaobin smiled in relief: "Mr. Pei has already answered this question for us. ”
“Cutting down payment points will indeed affect the interests of wealthy players. This is inevitable. We are trying so hard to find a solution, but there is no solution for this kind of thing! ”
“This is like a complete revolution. When we are attacking the local tyrants and dividing their land, do we still need to consider the feelings of the local tycoons? It's not necessary. ”
“Mr. Pei’s meaning is very clear, let them fend for themselves! ”
“The matter that we have been struggling with for a long time was solved so quickly by President Pei. This is the difference in level! ”
Everyone was stunned.
Just like a complicated knot being cut with a knife, this seemingly unsolvable problem was solved so easily by Mr. Pei. !
It’s easy to say, but difficult to do.
Who has the courage to cut off 80% of his income sources?
Mr. Pei can do it!
Thinking of this, everyone can’t help but admire Mr. Pei even more.
Sure enough, there is no hesitation. This is the true realm of a master!
Ye Zhizhou was also very emotional. He knocked on the table: "Okay, the last problem has been solved. Let's... officially start work! ”
“We must implement Mr. Pei’s ideas to the end so that these two games can be brought back to life! ”
