Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 817 Food Stall Competition? (Look for a monthly pass!)

At this time, Qiu Hong was worried in the incubation base of the imperial capital's "Poverty Plan".

Because in his opinion, the games produced by this incubation base are really not enough to watch.

It has been two months since the incubation base began to operate, and many independent game producers’ games have been developed for a period of time before arriving at the incubation base. It stands to reason that it is time to produce a little bit of fruit.

After all, this is an independent game, the investment and workload are not too big, and it is a small but beautiful route.

However, just fixing the BUG would make everyone tired.

Two games are on the line, but for various reasons, the response is not good.

Qiu Hong summed it up briefly and felt that it was mainly because of ability problems.

Although these independent game designers are provided with relevant supporting support, it does not mean that their games will be successful.

Because game production itself is a matter with a low probability of success, especially independent game production.Because independent game producers themselves are inspired, enthusiastic, and lacking in ability. Otherwise, if they work directly at a serious game company, why bother to choose independent games, which is neither profitable nor tiring.

But in this way, Qiu Hong's pressure is very great.

He knows that President Pei has high hopes for this independent game incubation base, and the money is never ambiguous. He himself is considered a successful game producer with a small reputation. As a result, he has been working for a long time without any results.

Due to various bugs and details, several games that Qiu Hong focused on, such as "Ink and Smoke", cannot be released yet, and may have to skip tickets until next month.

No matter how anxious Qiu Hong did, he didn't have any games to post, it was no use.

At this moment, his cell phone rang, and Mr. Pei called.

Qiu Hong couldn't help but "cock" in his heart: Isn't Mr. Pei here to be held accountable?

He had an ominous premonition when he submitted the weekly work report from the incubator base. Now that President Pei called himself, does this mean that the premonition has come true?

Qiu Hong quickly answered the phone: "President Pei!"

On the phone, President Pei’s voice was very kind, and even a little cheerful: “Mr. Qiu, I have already understood the situation of the incubation base and it has been very successful! The situation is very good, we must continue to maintain it, you know?”

what?

A question mark floated slowly on Qiu Hong's head, almost thinking that he had heard it wrong, or that Mr. Pei made the wrong call.

But if you think about it carefully, you should be right. Mr. Pei is talking about the incubation base.

Well?Very successful?

Qiu Hong was very confused: "Mr. Pei, do you call this situation very successful? Is there some deviation in my definition of'success'?"

"The two games we released are obviously not selling well..."

Pei Qian laughed: "Of course this is a very successful one!"

"Mr. Qiu, obviously there is a problem with your evaluation criteria. You should think this way: These independent game designers could not even complete and release the game before. With the help of the incubation base, they can complete the game. I met with the players, isn't this a huge improvement and success?"

"Don't think about how many scores are on this paper. At least you can complete the whole test paper independently. The answers to the questions are filled up and the papers are handed in normally. This is an improvement!"

"People have to take their time. How can it be possible to start making money two months after establishing an independent game incubation base? Too fast for quick success! This mentality is not desirable."

Qiu Hong heard the mist in the clouds, his expression was a little dazed.

Although Mr. Pei said quite reasonable, he always felt a little weird.

Could it be that my job is actually very good?I just didn't feel it myself?

The sudden compliment made Qiu Hong almost blinked.

"But..." Pei Qian said, "There are still some problems with your work. I must point them out now and you can correct them as soon as possible."

Qiu Hong let out a sigh of relief, that's right!

How can my job be perfect?I don't believe it myself.

Hurriedly said: "President Pei, please speak up, I'll listen carefully."

Pei Qian said: "I think your work report says that you plan to let the producers of these two games take a break and then continue to design and develop the next independent game? This is wrong."

Qiu Hong was silent for a moment, and said, "President Pei, you mean..."

"To fire them?"

When Qiu Hong heard this from President Pei, he was obviously dissatisfied with his arrangement.

The games of these two designers have been finished, and the market response is not good, so Qiu Hong intends to let them start making new games immediately, and the incubation base can't raise idlers.

But Pei always felt that this was wrong, could it be because they felt that these two men were unbearable, so they kicked and replaced them early?

Pei Qian on the phone almost suffocated.

This Qiu Hong, what comprehension ability!

Can you give me such a minister of brachii?

Pei Qian hurriedly said: "Your understanding is too outrageous! I mean, modify, optimize, and redo these two games until they are recognized by the market, understand?"

"Every independent game is the condensation of the designer's inspiration and wisdom. The game is not popular with players. It does not mean that the idea is not good, but that the way to express the idea is not mature enough!"

"If every idea is just a simple taste, try and give up, then how can it be successful?"

"Unsuccessful game, then spend money to redo it, and keep doing it until it succeeds!"

Qiu Hong was stunned.

The game companies of other people's homes cut down the failed projects in time to stop the losses; Mr. Pei did well, but increased efforts to continue the life of the failed projects!

According to common sense, this is a very stupid behavior. After all, the game itself has been denied by the market. Rather than making a big change, it is better to make a new one.

But Mr. Pei's tone was extremely firm, and he was so arrogant that Qiu Hong felt that what he said made sense!I was the one who was wrong?

Qiu Hong thought for a while: "Then... there must be an upper limit for investment, right? One million? Two million? There can be no more independent games!"

Pei Qian was silent for a moment and said, "Don't let money limit your precious imagination."

"If a game can only achieve its best results when you invest 5 million in it, and you set a limit of 2 million for it, how can it be successful?"

"Since you have decided to do it, you must do the best, understand?"

Qiu Hong: "...Okay."

...

After hanging up, Pei Qian continued to check the reports of other departments.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside, He Desheng.

"President Pei, let me briefly report on the situation of the cold face girl. The report is not clear in a few words, so I think it is better to report in person."

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, let's talk."

He Desheng gave a brief introduction to the cold noodle girl.

After Meng Chang sold all the shares in his hand, he completely separated from the cold-faced girl and left them alone.But the original staff of the cold noodle girl still has a large part.

Although the company ran out of money and was in arrears with wages, it was not so fast to change jobs.

Many people have heard that the company has turned off, and they were looking for a job in despair, but before they found a new job, they heard that the original job was saved.

This group of people have been resettled and returned to their jobs. The cold noodle girl's store should be opened soon and begin normal business.

Of course, Yuanmeng Ventures has put out a sum of money for the normal operation of the cold noodle girls' stores.

He Desheng asked, "Mr. Pei, do you continue to engage in the marketing activities of the cold face girl?"

In the past, Meng Chang spent money like water, mainly because he spent too much on marketing, buying hot searches, advertising, and even hosting venues for lectures.

If it is just subsidies to maintain the daily operations of the store, it will be slow to spend money.

Pei Qian thought for a while: "I put it aside for now, let's discuss it in the long run."

Although it is fast to continue these marketing activities, the boss of the cold noodle girl is now changed from Meng Chang to Tenda. Considering Tengda's influence, if it is really publicized, it is likely to have some unknown impact on the cold noodle girl.

So Pei Qian thought for a while, but first observe and observe, and finally find a stable loss-making thing, but don't let it go as soon as it takes over.

What's more, many marketing activities can't be played without Meng Chang, such as that speech, you can't do it by Pei Qian, that's not fair.

He Desheng hesitated and said, "Mr. Pei, other marketing activities are easy to say. There is only a'Gourmet Food Contest'. In the early stage, I have already spent a lot of effort to find some vendors from all over the country. The start time is set next. Zhou, do you still do this?"

Pei Qian was stunned.

Food stalls contest?

This Meng Chang is pretty good at getting things done. How did you come up with this kind of marketing campaign?

Pei Qian immediately thought of Meng Chang's intentions: he wanted to invite small vendors from all over the country to cook some food, and use it as a green leaf for the cold noodle girl. This topic must be very good, and the advertising effect will not be bad.

Pei Qian was really interested, and nodded: "This sounds good, so let's do it as originally planned."

He Desheng nodded: "Okay, President Pei, then nothing else."

He just wanted to leave, but was stopped by Pei Qian.

"What is Meng Chang doing now?"

He Desheng replied: "It seems that he has gone to find a lot of investors, but they have all closed their doors. Basically, the possibility of turning over is very slim."

"Some failed entrepreneurs seem to have a chance to stand up, but in fact it is because they either have a good family, have contacts, have resources, or have fans... But Meng Chang actually does everything except personal ability. No, this is fatal."

"However, if Meng Chang put down his figure, did some work that he didn't like, and worked steadily for more than ten years... the money should be almost the same."

Pei Qian thought for a while: "If he really has nowhere to find him, I can consider arranging a job for him."

He Desheng: "Alright President Pei, should he be responsible for the cold girl?"

Pei Qian shook his head: "No. Let's talk about it then."
