Sunday, April 3rd.
Moyu Internet Cafe Handong University Store.
Pei Qian and Lin Chang drank coffee in silence, looking at each other without saying a word.
These two days are weekends, and Pei Qian can finally rest peacefully without any psychological burden, leave all his worries behind, and live a short and happy life.
But today, Lin Chang came to Jingzhou, so he still had to meet him.
But after meeting and greeting each other, both of them fell into silence.
Thinking of the two of us planning and strategizing a few months ago, we thought we were already halfway successful. However, in the end, gaming phones became very popular, and Lin Wan also experienced unprecedented growth, and even started to post in her own group. , Crazy hatred...
Both of them are a little bit pained.
But it doesn’t seem appropriate to just be so silent.
The problem still needs to be solved!
After being silent for a while, Lin Chang spoke helplessly: "Mr. Pei, the game and the mobile phone are not going well...haven't we already made sufficient plans?"
p>The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly.
Adequate planning is mainly done by Pei Qian, which more or less means "making plans as fierce as a tiger, but in the end making money like a dog".
But Pei Qian is not convinced either. Lin Chang, do you dare to say that you have no responsibility at all?
If you hadn't taken it upon yourself to promote "Better Tomorrow" for me, the movie wouldn't be popular, the ads on it wouldn't be studied, and the OTTO phone wouldn't be so popular. A good start...
In short, you must have something to lose!
You can’t leave it all to me!
Pei Qian sighed and said: "You promoted "Better Tomorrow" and arranged so many films. As a result, OTTO mobile phone has established a high-end image in the hands of consumers before it is released. This It also messed up my plan."
Lin Chang looked unbelieving: "How is that possible!"
"Mr. Pei, didn't you write this movie script? You must be aware of the advertising of mobile phones in movies. The quality of the movie is so high and the spiritual connotation is so rich. You know better than anyone that this movie would still be popular even if I didn’t promote it?”
"If you say that the success of other movies is due to the announcement, then I believe it; but "Better Tomorrow"? The announcement is nothing more than the icing on the cake!"
Lin Chang actually took the blame again It was thrown back at the speed of light.
Pei Qian: "..."
I can't accept it at all in my heart, but after thinking about it carefully, it seems a little difficult to refute.
Now "Better Tomorrow" has been regarded as a work of excellent quality and profound connotation. Most people believe that although the success of a good work is also due to marketing, excellent quality is the key factor. .
As for the matter of excellent quality... Although Zhu Xiaoce was the first to take the blame, Pei Qian seems to have a little responsibility.
Pei Qian even has a little self-doubt.
According to Lin Chang’s statement, is it possible that all of this was doomed a long time ago?
The two fell into a brief silence again.
Lin Chang looked suspicious and whispered: "Mr. Pei, you didn't do it on purpose, right?"
"You seem to be failing if you let Awan be responsible for this. In fact, we already know that both games and mobile phones will be a big success. Otherwise, why would you use other industries to fully support it?”
“As far as I know, “BEQUIET” is a big success. You are personally responsible for the promotion of the game, and the mobile phone advertising and various benefits are also benefited from other industries."
"Is it possible...that you don't actually want Awan to leave?"
Pei Qian's face darkened: "There is absolutely no such thing!"
"Lin Wan is the director of two departments and is very familiar with the heads of other departments. She We have the authority to ask for welfare from various departments and coordinate the overall situation."
"As for "BEQUIET"... this is an accident."
"Mr. Lin, believe me, I am better. Everyone hopes that Lin Wan will go home quickly."
Pei Qian's expression was extremely sincere.
Lin Chang looked at Pei Qian without saying anything, but there was suspicion in his eyes.
This is also normal. If someone promises something to you, but fails five times due to some "objective reasons" or "unexpected factors", you also Such doubts will arise...
However, Pei Qian is the most unjust person at this time.
But the matter has come to this, and the excuse seems to have no effect...
We can only continue to set goals for the next stage. This time we must persuade Lin Wan to quit. !
However, when Pei Qian was thinking about his next goal, Lin Chang's words were completely beyond his expectation.
Lin Chang sighed softly: "Okay, Mr. Pei, I'm not here to shirk the blame. I have other things to do."
"In fact, To be honest, the situation has changed a lot."
"In the past few days, Lin Wan has been showing off her power in our group, especially the OTTO mobile phone that has been successfully sold for 8,000 yuan. She is my eldest sister. None of the flagship mobile phones in charge have reached the price range. Although the sales volume is very different, after all, Awan has only been making mobile phones for a few months, while my eldest sister has been doing it for several years..."
"In short, the scene is amazing. It was very confusing."
Pei Qian thought for a while: "Then... can the old man let her dance like this?"
Lin Chang said: "Mr. Pei really did it all at once. This is the key to the change in the situation."
"Not only is the old man not angry, but he is very happy."
"Tell the truth, Mr. Pei."
“The old man was very unhappy when Ah Wan ran out to work out of anger, because he knew very well what the state of most companies outside was like now, and he felt thatIt was a waste of time to get Awan, so he kept asking Awan to go back and inherit the family business. ”
“Ah Wan has been making games before, and he hasn’t made much of a name for himself. Although the mobile games have made money, it’s still hard to be popular, so the old man’s attitude has not changed. ”
“But this time Ah Wan said in the group that he had made an 8000-speed mobile phone... The old man suddenly became interested! "
"So he asked someone to learn more about OTTO mobile phones and Tenda Group, and guess what? "
The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly, and he had a very bad premonition in his heart: "What's going on? "
Lin Chang's expression was a little complicated: "The old man thought about the process of how this mobile phone became popular and sold for 8,000 yuan, and he is full of praise for you, Mr. Pei! ”
“Boldly enlisting Changyou, establishing high-end positioning from the beginning, subtly promoting the brand in movies, and using Tenda’s other businesses to protect mobile phones, thus establishing a strong presence among countless domestic brands at almost every price point. Breaking out of the already completely divided mobile phone market..."
"If you make any mistake in any of the above steps, it may lead to the failure of the OTTO mobile phone! ”
“Especially at the press conference, even the old man was very surprised. After all, domestic manufacturers have never done anything like this. The old man said that this conference alone saved at least hundreds of thousands of marketing expenses for OTTO mobile phones! "
"The old man knows that most of this must be attributed to Mr. Pei and Chang You, but as the director, Awan will definitely get a lot of credit even if he is only responsible for a small part of it. Big growth. "
"Then, the old man briefly learned about other industries of Tenda Group, including Headwind Logistics, Moyu Internet Cafe, etc..."
Pei Qian felt even worse: " Just tell me what happened in the end..."
Lin Chang paused and said, "The old man changed his mind. "
Pei Qian: "? "
"Changed your mind? ”
“Don’t let Lin Wan go back? "
Lin Chang had a complicated expression: "Yes. "
"The old man originally wanted Awan to go back because he felt that the companies outside were unreliable and that working in these companies was a complete waste of time. ”
“But after seeing Awan’s excellent results, the old man’s prejudice against these companies has been eliminated... Oh, it doesn’t seem accurate to say that. It should be said that his prejudice against Tenda has been eliminated. "
" Even the old man admires you very much, Mr. Pei, and feels that Awan will definitely learn a lot from working under you. It seems that it is not a bad idea to train here for a few more years and then let her go back to inherit the family business. . "
Pei Qian: "? ? ”
Isn’t it a good idea to practice for a few more years and then go back?
How is this not a bad thing? This is obviously an absolute no-no!
No more I have been a director for several years, and my company may not be replaced by her.What does it look like!
What do you mean, the "Lin Wan Home United Front" was destroyed and collapsed just because of a trivial success?
Mr. Lin, can you be firmer?
Pei Qian hurriedly asked: "What did Lin Yu say?"
Lin Chang spread his hands: "What can she say? The old man has already spoken, of course you have to listen to him . ”
“Now the old man’s attitude is that since A Wan can learn something here, it doesn’t matter if he stays for a while. Moreover, the old man also hinted that during this period, we, the siblings, will be able to learn something. You have to cooperate well and give her career a try..."
Pei Qian: "? ?"
Brother, if this giant like Shenhua wants to give her a boost, that's a big deal. No joke!
You might as well break my arm!
Think about the past.
Lin Yu helped promote the mobile version of "War Song" on the Shenhua App Store;
Linzhou gave Shenhua Luxury Landscape rent-free;
Lin Chang To promote "Better Tomorrow".
Think about the future again...
The three of you are responsible for mobile phones, real estate and entertainment respectively. If you work together, Lin Wan’s career will indeed advance by leaps and bounds and everything will go smoothly. Mr. Pei’s Didn’t the great cause of losing money die suddenly on the spot?
Pei Qian immediately flatly refused: "No need!"
Lin Chang nodded: "Yes, that's what I told the old man too!"
Pei Qian : "Huh?"
Lin Chang said with an expression of "I am Mr. Pei's confidant": "I told the old man, Mr. Pei, you started from scratch and are extremely talented. You have always been very repulsive to such help. Since Pei In general, every decision has already been planned and has a good chance of winning. Our blind help is just adding to the chaos. It is really unnecessary."
Pei Qian nodded very happily: "That's right!"
p>Sure enough, Mr. Lin, who knows me well, what you said makes me feel so comfortable!
Although you have some problems with your understanding of "strategy", as long as you don't cause trouble, we will still be good friends!
Pei Qian thought for a while and then asked: "Well, Mr. Lin, did the old man give any hint as to when Lin Wan can go back?"
Lin Chang thought for a moment: "Based on the old man's current attitude... Ah Wan should be able to go back when she is capable enough to stand alone."
Pei Qian hurriedly said: "I think she is now capable enough to stand alone. ”
Lin Chang shook his head: “Obviously the old man doesn’t think so. From the old man’s point of view, Tenda’s size is obviously still a bit small. The current sales and profits of OTTO mobile phones. , is not even as good as an ordinary OEM machine from the Shenhua mobile phone business sub-brand. With this achievement, it is still far away from the 'one-on-one' in the eyes of the old man."
"At least the business that Awan is responsible for can be achieved. In the same collarOnly if you rank very high in the domain can you get into the eyes of the old man..."
Pei Qian's face darkened.
Ranking very high?
If a mobile phone is to "rank very high", then the market value of the company must be tens of billions, right?
Are you kidding me?
Pei Qian thought for a while. : “What about other businesses? For example, if you reach the top ranking in the world in a certain category of the game industry, does this count? "
Lin Chang thought for a moment: "It should count. The old man has no prejudice against the game industry, but just a mobile game like "War Hymn" will definitely not work. In addition to making profits, it must also have enough influence. "
Pei Qian nodded and knew what he was doing.
Assign Lin Wan to be responsible for the national server of ioi and that's it!
The same is true with "Let Lin Wan went back to inherit the family business" as the goal. In the past, he worked hard to make the project fail, but now he works hard to make the project a great success.
Of course, the success of the project has nothing to do with Mr. Pei's ultimate goal. Contrary to that, great success does not necessarily mean making a lot of money, it can also mean being popular!
It just so happens that Pei Qian is still worried about who should hand over the ioi national server project that can be successful even if he just lays down. .
Now that it’s confirmed, let’s leave it to Lin Wan and Yang Yang Game!
This will at least kill three birds with one stone.
Prevent Yang Yang Game from doing it again. They have already proven their ability to make popular and popular stand-alone games with "BEQUIET";
No matter what, most of ioi's national servers will be a big success, since this fact cannot be avoided , then throw Lin Wan into the gold plating, and after the project is successful, quickly ask Mr. Lin to pick him up;
Finally, the success of the ioi national server can also kill GOG, Tengda Games and Yangyang Games, which are the henchmen, The two game departments of his family are fighting each other, and the younger brother beats the older brother. This scene must be very exciting.
Thinking of this, Pei Qian nodded: "Okay, I will ask the old man to come and pick him up after half a year!" ”
If you want to ensure that the project will inevitably fail, then Mr. Pei is really unsure.
But if the project succeeds, especially a project as reliable as ioi...then Mr. Pei will still Somewhat confident.
Seeing Mr. Pei's expression change so quickly, Lin Chang looked suspicious: "Uh... Mr. Pei, looking at the way you are strategizing, it is obvious that you have a well-thought-out plan. . "
"So... what I said before about letting Awan fail was really just bluffing me, right? "
"Could it be that you have already guessed that as long as Awan's career is successful enough, the old man will change his mind? "
Pei Qian: "..."
"Mr. Lin, if you continue to guess like this, you will lose my friendship sooner or later. ”
