At this time, Pei Qian had just left the Headwind Logistics Headquarters and was going to check out the Moyu Internet Cafe Huanyu Tianjie store.
After all, I can no longer control how the game fares, so I have to seize the time to spend the money.
Everything is going well at Headwind Logistics, and Lu Mingliang is seizing the time to recruit people to open new stores.
Originally, Lu Mingliang was very reliable, and Pei Qian should rest assured. But after all, at a critical moment, Pei Qian still had to supervise more.
There is nothing I can do if I am busy. No matter how busy I am, I still have to get through the settlement this month.
In the car, Pei Qian's phone rang.
When he saw that the call was from Li Yada, Pei Qian's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that something happened again in "Return to the Shore"?
Don’t mess with me!
I am trying to figure out a way to solve the problem. Don’t create a bigger problem for me!
Hurry and answer the phone.
"Mr. Pei, should we publish an English version of "Back to the Shore"?"
"I see that there are many foreigners leaving messages in the comment area, hoping that this game will be published in English. "
"Furthermore, this might also be able to open up overseas markets. Haven't the officials been responding to calls to support domestic games and promote traditional culture..."
Pei Qian can hear this. He was frightened and said quickly: "There's no rush!"
Is there an English version? Wouldn’t that kill me?
Pei Qian knows very well that "Dark Souls 1" first became popular in the European and American markets. This kind of suffering game is especially favored by European and American players.
If "Return to the Shore" were to have an English version, wouldn't it cost my life?
Of course, that doesn’t mean that it can’t be done at all. The key is that we have reached this juncture, and it’s not just these days when we want to make money!
The settlement will be settled in less than a month. Pei Qian is running an Internet cafe and a headwind inn. He sees that he can make a loss of dozens of dollars with just a few bucks. Thousands of dollars, you can fill your pockets and get special rewards from the system at the same time.
In the end, it was all last minute and an overseas version was launched. Isn’t this a joke?
Although it will cost money to produce an overseas version and hire a translator, this amount of money is not enough to watch it.
Translation is a very respectable job in Europe and the United States, but in China, when it comes to simultaneous interpretation, accompanying translation at business meetings, etc., it is completely cheap. Three or four hundred per thousand words is considered high. Translating a 100,000-word game text would only cost tens of thousands of yuan.
Is this little money worth Mr. Pei’s expense?
Even if you hire those famous translators, it will only cost you hundreds of thousands at most. Compared with the income that the English version may generate, it is simply a drop in the bucket and very uneconomical.
If Pei Qian agrees to Li Yada, with his work efficiency, he will probably find a translator within two days. Several translators will translate different texts in the game, and it will be done quickly.
Settlement will be settled immediately, don’t let this happen!
So Pei Qian decisively refused.
Even if translation is required, it will have to be after the settlement this month!
Pei Qian coughed twice: "It's too hasty."
"To enter overseas markets, you need the right time, place, and people, both of which are indispensable. Without abundant resources and support, it would be rash to It’s easy to stumble when entering.”
“Of course, I’m not afraid of stumbles, but this is related to our company’s long-term layout, so there is no need to rush into it.”
“It’s better to stabilize the domestic market first and wait. We will consider the multi-language version next month.”
“You can check to see if there is a suitable translation. As for when to start making the multi-language version... we will wait until next month. ”
Li Yada: “Ah, but what about the foreign players now? I feel like they are quite pitiful. Is it possible to let them play while reading the dictionary until next month?”
< p>Pei Qian said seriously: "Why not? This is a good opportunity for them to learn Chinese!""Nowadays, those who start the game are targeting players who know a little bit of Chinese, and let them translate Isn’t it good to look through the dictionary, review the knowledge that you have gradually forgotten, and master some new Chinese vocabulary? ”
“As for those players who don’t understand Chinese at all...they are all waiting anyway. So what if we wait half a month?”
“Besides, there are so many ancient poems in our game. How difficult would it be to translate them? It will make foreign friends laugh when you go out."
"There is no need to rush this matter. You need to think about it in the long term. You can first find out if there is any more powerful translator."
< p>Li Yada thought for a while, and it seemed that this was the case: "Okay, let me get ready first."After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian let out a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, I was resourceful and almost had a big problem!
Let’s talk about the next cycle in the next cycle. Anyway, as long as we don’t rush in these two days and the settlement period is over, everything will be easy to talk about.
Pei Qian calmed down his emotions, and not long after, Universal Street arrived.
Pei Qian got out of the car and rushed directly to the Moyu Internet Cafe on the third floor.
Pei Qian has been staring at Tengda the past few days, so he hasn’t been to Moyu Internet Cafe for a while. He must take a look today to feel at ease.
However, before entering the door, Pei Qian felt that something was wrong.
It is Sunday afternoon. As the largest high-end shopping mall in Jingzhou City, Huanyu Tianjie has a large flow of people.
Originally, there was a lot of traffic, but it had nothing to do with the Moyu Internet Cafe on the third floor. After all, most people came to the mall to shop, eat, and watch movies, not to play games.
When Pei Qian inspected the location of this Moyu Internet Cafe, he paid special attention to it. The two clothing brands on the third floor are usually relatively deserted, and the cafe is also very popular.So, I can safely open Moyu Internet Cafe here.
But this time, something suddenly went wrong!
Pei Qian came up by the escalator. There were many people in the elevator. Pei Qian didn’t pay much attention at first, thinking that everyone was going to watch a movie or eat. But when they got to the third floor, the group of people turned out to be crazy. Everyone in Wuyang got off the elevator!
Pei Qian, who was the last to get off the elevator, froze and watched helplessly as the group of people walked towards Moyu Internet Cafe.
Wait a minute!
Stop!
What for!
Don’t wander around!
Pei Qian hurriedly walked two steps to the door of Moyu Internet Cafe. However, when he saw the scene inside, he almost couldn't help but smoke it on the spot.
The attendance rate is over 60%. Judging from this situation, we will probably turn a profit soon!
This is really a blessing in disguise...what a ghost!
Pei Qian immediately thought of looking for Ma Yang and Zhang Yuan.
Where are the people!
The Internet cafe must have something to do with these two guys!
Who did it first and took the initiative to take the blame? If I catch you, I will definitely not be able to eat your good juice!
Pei Qian continued to walk into the Internet cafe. The further he walked, the more frightened he became.
He had experienced this feeling before, at the flagship store of Moyu Internet Cafe.
It’s just that although Internet cafes were booming at that time, the business of coffee shops and bars was booming, and most people came to listen to Chen Lei’s singing.
But this store only has internet cafe business!
These people are all sitting on e-sports chairs and playing games seriously, and a large part of them are playing "Return to the Shore".
There are actually many couples and brothers playing blackmail, making the entire Internet cafe look quite lively, no longer as deserted as before.
Uncomfortable!
Pei Qian came to the rest area of the Internet cafe. Qiao Laoshi's latest video was playing on the big projector screen.
There are some customers sitting around the long table in the rest area. Some are drinking coffee and some are drinking milk tea. At the same time, they are watching Qiao Laoshi’s explanation on the big screen, often showing expressions of enlightenment, as if they are Very inspired.
Ma Yang was also sitting in the rest area. Zhang Yuan was not there, so he didn’t know what he was doing.
"Brother Qian, are you here?"
A smile broke out on Ma Yang's long face, and he asked Pei Qian to sit down in the rest area.
“Want to drink coffee? The nearby coffee shop saw that our Internet cafe was getting busy, so they organized an event with us, offering 30% off drinks on top of the Internet fee! Don’t tell me, the taste is okay, look at the number of people now One cup."
The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly.
This was a sharp blow to the head, leaving him a little stunned.
"Why are there so many people today?" Pei Qian asked tremblingly.
Ma Yang was a little confused: "Huh? No. There are so many people every day recently."
Pei Qian: "..."
Nah ah!
Are you going to piss me off with your long face?
What good will it do you to make me mad?
Pei Qian forcibly calmed down his emotions: "So, when did the number of people start to increase?"
Ma Yang was a little puzzled: "Brother Qian, why don't you? Are you clear? It was during the time when you were working on "Back to the Shore"! "
"I never realized that although the attendance rate of our Internet cafe was not high, it had already passed a series of previous incidents. It has accumulated a good reputation in Jingzhou!"
"Although this store is newly opened, it has always received high ratings on Dianping.com"
"There were few people at the beginning. , but then there were more and more people. Everyone was tired of shopping, and there happened to be no room in the cafe, so they came to our Internet cafe to sit. Anyway, ten yuan an hour is a good deal in this mall. ” p>
"And guess what, Brother Qian, just a few days ago, the large roller skating rink in the mall was officially opened after renovation!"
"Many fathers brought their children to roller skating. , the child has to go to class for more than an hour, and the father happens to come to our Internet cafe to play.”
“There are also things like accompanying my girlfriend to get her hair done, her nails done, etc., which takes a lot of time at once. For hours, some people come to our Internet cafe to kill time.”
“In addition, there is also a word-of-mouth effect. It seems that Qiao Laoshi also recommended our Internet cafe online, that Wang Peng of Dianping.com. I also recommended it to our Internet cafes."
"Of course, the most important thing is that the game "Back to the Shore" has become popular, and even the Internet cafes have benefited from it."
"There are many of them! Players come here every day just to get the best gaming experience from "Return to the Shore"
"Brother Qian, you have been busy at Tengda, right?"
< p>Pei Qian was speechless.Why, have you become my fault again?
Do you think this is what I want for "Return to the Shore" now?
Ma Yang expressed a little regret: "Unfortunately, even though we have made great progress compared with before, we are still a little far away from making real money."
"Qian Brother, are you not satisfied with the current situation? You think it should be more popular, right?"
The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly. I am indeed dissatisfied, but it is entirely for other reasons!
He thought of a more important thing and hurriedly asked: "How are the other new stores?"
Ma Yang said happily: "The location selection has been finalized. After some simple decoration, we can open it next week."
Pei Qian quickly waved his hand: "No rush! Set the opening time for next Sunday, which is the 24th. There is no need to rush it, do you understand? ”
Originally, Pei Qian thought that it didn’t matter when these Internet cafes opened, but now that he saw the urine in the Huanyu Tianjie store, he realized that there was a big problem!
If other stores open too early and the number of customers increases, it will bring even heavier losses to Pei Qian.burden!
So, just stick to the opening time one week before settlement. If you open one week later, you can naturally make less money, and don't put so much pressure on yourself.
Ma Yang was stunned: "But our rent has already been paid, why do we have to delay it for another week..."
Pei Qian pretended to be profound and said: "This is to wait for someone Better time, no need to ask."
