Pei Qian is still quite concerned about the situation of ioi.
As GOG’s main competitor globally, ioi’s actions directly determine whether Pei Qian can continue to burn more money on GOG, which is very important.
Since Eric left, the person in charge of the Dayak Group and Zhidou Company in the ioi national server has become a successor named Chretien, so the policy of promoting ioi is probably the same. Changes will occur.
Pei Qian hopes that Chretien can bring some new changes to the ioi national server and create some challenges for GOG in the domestic market, although this possibility is not high.
Lin Wan handed over a report: "Mr. Pei, the currently known measures of Chretien against the ioi national server are mainly these."
"Compared with Eric, he focuses his work on changes to game content, which can be seen from the test server update plan."
"The game map has been relatively reduced. Some of the denies minions will also provide the opponent with 70% experience and a small amount of economy. After multiple deaths, the head is worthless, and there is an extra bounty for killing the head, which enriches some map resources..."
" In addition, he seems to be planning to change the ioi national server into a low-price area. The prices of heroes and skins will be reduced to 1/2 to 1/3 of the international server prices depending on the situation. This is something that many game platforms have initially verified to be feasible. ”
“In addition, there is news that Zhidou Company seems to be in contact with some major domestic game manufacturers, hoping that these major manufacturers will promote the localization of the game, but currently it is unclear which company they will contact. The cooperation has not been finalized yet, I will continue to pay attention."
Pei Qian turned over the report handed over by Lin Wan, his expression as usual.
Logically speaking, he should be overjoyed, after all, these measures seem to be in the right direction.
Both Yangyang Games and Eric used different methods to promote the ioi national server before, but neither of them took off. The root cause still lies in the game itself.
GOG is Tenda’s own game. During the promotion process, it can be modified in time based on player feedback, and it can even be used to collect hero ideas from players.
But the authority to change ioi lies with Zhidou Company. Zhitou Company’s main target is the European and American markets. In the early days, it was not directly affected by GOG, so they felt that ioi was perfect and were unwilling to accept Yangyang games. Suggestions for modifications submitted here.
So, GOG continues to evolve, but ioi has remained stagnant. The gap between the two sides in gameplay is getting wider and wider. Players of ioi have been robbed by GOG, but players of GOG will not give ioi a second glance. , over time, the balance of power between the two sides is no longer at the same level.
The person in charge this time, Chretien, is a senior executive of Zhitou Company. He has a high say in changing the game. He is also a person who truly understands the design concepts of MOBA games.
Also, GOGNow that it has entered the overseas market and is rapidly encroaching on ioi's market share, no matter how slow and arrogant the company is, it is time for some reaction.
What Chretien has done is actually to close the gap between ioi and GOG from the bottom up.
Change the game mechanism to make ioi more in line with the gaming habits of ordinary players to attract more players; change the ioi national server into a low-price area so that ioi will not be too big compared to GOG. Price disadvantage; cooperate with major domestic manufacturers, use the resources of these major manufacturers to promote games, and at the same time launch more and more suitable local promotion strategies.
It’s hard to say whether these changes are right or wrong. After all, changes to the gameplay will please some people and offend others at the same time, so they can’t be perfect.
Every change carries a huge risk. Sometimes, the starting point of some changes is good, but the final result is completely unexpected.
But in any case, these changes at least prove that Chretien and Finger Company have gradually realized the root cause of the failure of the ioi national server and have begun to save it.
Of course, Chretien was relatively restrained when doing these things, and did not go overboard all at once.
The difficulty of the game has been reduced to a limited extent. Denial has not been directly cancelled, but the benefits of denying have been reduced;
The prices of heroes and skins have not suddenly been as low as cabbage prices. , even if the national server is divided into a low-price area, the price is not as low as GOG, fully taking into account the feelings of players in other regions, if the effect is good, the price can continue to be reduced;
Furthermore, these Changes are first tested on the test server to test the players' reaction. If the feedback is good, they will be used in the official server.
After all, ioi is already a mature game. Any changes are a risk and must be done with caution.
If it weren’t for the tremendous pressure from GOG, Zhidou Company would certainly not have made such a risky move.
In short, being able to recognize the gap between ioi and GOG in terms of game base and price, and making up their mind to modify it, should be good news for the ioi national server. It is better than the previous hard-earned game. Money is much more effective.
But Pei Qian does not feel very optimistic.
Because GOG’s current domestic market share has completely overwhelmed ioi, even if ioi makes changes, will there be immediate results?
Pei Qian not only has no confidence in ioi, but also has no confidence in his own luck.
Lin Wan asked: "Mr. Pei, should we take some countermeasures? Nip the hidden danger in the bud?"
Pei Qian quickly raised his hand to stop: "No need. ! "
Don't make trouble. If someone finally wants to make a scene, let's just kill him. Isn't that ridiculous?
Hurry up and give them some space to recuperate. It’s best to feed tigers. When ioi recovers and develops, everyone canBe happy and spend money.
Lin Wan nodded: "Okay, Mr. Pei, then we will carry out GOG's overseas promotion work according to the original plan. I will continue to pay attention to the trends on ioi."
…
At the same time, the Human Resources Department.
"Tengda Group does not have any need to carry out spiritual construction?"
"Don't worry about what other departments do, just strictly follow President Pei's instructions in your own department?"
"This..."
After listening to Hao Yun's introduction about yesterday's dinner party, Wu Bin fell into deep thought.
Yesterday, the heads of various departments had a dinner. Wu Bin was not the head of the department, so he did not go.
But after all, Mr. Pei mentioned Tengda Spirit during the dinner, and the heads of each department could not figure out Mr. Pei’s true thoughts, so Hao Yun specifically told Wu Bin about this after going to work today, so that He came to help with the analysis.
Although President Pei said, "You don't need to understand or understand why, just implement it resolutely." How could these people in charge not be curious?
What Mr. Pei wants to do is definitely meaningful!
These department heads are all very good at answering President Pei’s intentions. How could they willingly give up interpretation and become just a tool?
So, everyone still conducted an in-depth analysis and interpretation of Mr. Pei’s words, and even analyzed the deep meaning behind the matter “Mr. Pei thinks that everyone does not need to understand” and interpretation.
The result was not interpreted.
The people in charge were all feeling very uncomfortable.
Behind Mr. Pei’s seemingly ordinary request, there is most likely a new grand strategy hidden. This grand strategy may affect the future development of all departments, but everyone knows nothing about it. How can this be done?
The strong desire for knowledge troubles those in charge, and so does Hao Yun.
So, Hao Yun secretly shared this matter with Wu Bin.
After all, this is not confidential information. Mr. Pei has never asked for confidentiality. Wu Bin is a core employee of the human resources department with certain qualifications and has made outstanding contributions. It is reasonable to know this information.
Wu Bin frowned and fell into silence.
In the past few days, Mr. Pei’s focus seems to be focused on Tengda’s spirit!
First, they changed the test questions on Tenda Spirit and added an answer explanation section; then they asked all department heads to talk about their understanding of Tenda Spirit at a dinner party for department heads; and finally they said that Tenda does not need spirit. Construction and various departments should not influence each other...
There must be something behind this!
Wu Bin's brain was working rapidly, and he analyzed the intention of Mr. Pei's move through his deep understanding of Tengda spirit.
“Let’s start with the most unreasonable point first: Mr. Pei said that Tengda does not need spiritual construction.”
“How can it be that spiritual construction is not needed? OthersA company dares to ask its employees to recite a few random slogans. Tengda obviously has such a good corporate spirit, but does not promote it. Is this reasonable? ”
“By promoting the Tengda spirit, we can improve employee work efficiency, promote company development, earn more income, and contribute to society. Mr. Pei has no reason to refuse such a good thing? ”
“Shaping corporate culture and promoting company spirit is not wrong in itself. If Mr. Pei objects, it must mean there is something wrong with the process, and he has not done his best at the execution level! ”
“Combined with Mr. Pei’s previous behavior of modifying the Tengda spirit fit test... I boldly speculate that there should be a certain deviation in our current interpretation of Tengda spirit, which makes Mr. Pei dissatisfied!
Hao Yun was stunned: "How can you see it?" "
Wu Bin explained: "We all know that the questions of the Tengda Spiritual Fit Test change randomly. As long as they meet Mr. Pei's requirements, there is no need to modify them. ”
“But Mr. Pei still took time out of his busy schedule to revise it and added a subjective explanation for each question. ”
“This shows that Mr. Pei is dissatisfied with the high pass rate of Tengda Spiritual Fit Test! I think that although some employees chose the right answer, they actually did not truly understand the Tengda spirit and took shortcuts. Therefore, Mr. Pei added the subjective part to try to find out the problem. ”
Hao Yun’s expression became serious and he nodded.
Indeed, this is a problem.
The current elimination rate of Tenda Spiritual Fit Test is really It is too low, and the heads of various departments are not willing to let the employees they have recruited with hard work be eliminated, so they will give some hints to make it easier for them to pass this test.
But in this way, many people will be disappointed. Passing the test does not rely on one's own understanding of Tengda spirit, but on the indoctrination of the department head.
Mr. Pei is obviously aware of this, so he requires new employees to pass the test. Explain why you chose this option.
It seems to make sense!
Hao Yun quickly said: "Then what Mr. Pei said at the dinner. If so, what’s the explanation? ”
