Rebirth 1984: Starting from the development of Hanka

Chapter 300 "Trading the old with the new", a major makeover of the Internet cafe

In the previous life, a large part of "Legend of Hot Blood" was ruined by cheaters and private servers.

Shanda Group has actually been aware of the dangers of cheating for a long time, but Korean game manufacturers will not easily sell the game copyright of "Legend of Blood" to Shanda Group.

In this life, due to the increasing popularity of Internet cafes and the early emergence of Alipay, Shanda Group was able to earn more by distributing the game "Legend of Blood", achieving an income of 2 million yuan in just one month.

How could you be willing to share this incredible wealth with a Korean game manufacturer? !

At the meeting, everyone unanimously agreed to buy "Legend of Blood" from Korean Game Production.

The game "Legend of Hot Blood" seems to be only popular in mainland China. In South Korea, "Legend of Hot Blood" performs very averagely and is far inferior to "Paradise".

The Korean game manufacturer that produced "Legend of Hot Blood" can only rely on Shanda Group to represent this game to make a lot of money. Therefore, Shanda Group wants to use this to take advantage of the other party and buy the rights to "Legend of Hot Blood" from the other party. copyright.

……

At this time, major Internet cafes across the country were shocked by the upgrading of the Tenglong chain of Internet cafes.

"Do you want to update the configuration of your own Internet cafe's computer?" An Internet cafe owner frowned and hesitated.Update it, but I think it’s too expensive, so don’t update it, but I’m afraid that the Internet cafe will lose business.

Spending US$4 million to create "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" has already aroused the expectations of countless players.

If any Internet cafe cannot play this game, it will definitely lose a large number of customers.

"Old Wang, do you want your Internet cafe to have the same computer configuration as Tenglong Internet Cafe?"

"I don't know. There's a good chance I won't replace it. You know, my Internet cafe has only been open for more than half a year, and it hasn't paid back yet. The computer is half-new, so how can I be willing to replace it~"

"If you don't change, it may affect the Internet cafe's business!"

"There's nothing you can do about it. What's going on? Is your Internet cafe going to change the computer configuration?"

"Well, I do have this plan. Players are all looking forward to playing "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony". If I update the computer configuration, the business of the Internet cafe will definitely be much better than before! By then, maybe I can get one Membership system allows you to recover a large amount of investment in advance~”

"Hey, don't tell me, the idea of ​​a membership system is quite good! Most Internet cafes in the country will not update their computer configurations immediately. Therefore, if your Internet cafe updates the configurations, business will definitely be booming and supply will exceed demand. When the time comes, it will be launched The membership system will definitely work!”

"Haha, yes, that's what I think."

Many Internet cafe owners who know each other are discussing with each other whether to change the configuration.

Some Internet cafe owners are willing to take a gamble, but more Internet cafe owners are still too conservative and unwilling to spend a lot of money on computer configurations.

At this time, Tenglong Internet Cafe chain has approximately 4 stores in China, accounting for 25% of the domestic market.

Of course, this only refers to registered Internet cafes.

You know, there are countless black Internet cafes.

On average, a Tenglong Internet cafe has 100 computers, which amounts to 400 million computers.

It’s scary, this is almost catching up with the sales of many computer manufacturers for several years.

Tenglong Internet Cafe's large-scale "dress-up" this time really cost some money.

Nearly 400 million old computers are actually worth a lot of money.

Borderless Building.

"Director Zhao, we have counted the number of primary schools in the country. There are 46 primary schools in the country, of which 38 are rural ordinary primary schools nationwide." Chai Hanfei, the person in charge of Tenglong Internet Cafe, introduced.

When Zhao Ye heard this, he was slightly startled. He had originally donated some computers to each rural primary school as second-hand computers after the computers in Tenglong Internet Cafe were updated. However, he did not expect that there were so many rural primary schools in the country. If they were evenly distributed, , each rural primary school can only be allocated about 10 units.

Even a computer room is not enough.

"Each primary school is only allocated 10 computers, which is a bit low!" Zhao Ye said with a frown.

Chai Hanfei smiled and said: "Director Zhao, I have a way to distribute more old computers to each primary school!"

Hearing this, Zhao Ye raised his head and looked at Chai Hanfei, and couldn't help asking: "What can we do?"

Chai Hanfei smiled and replied: "Director Zhao, have you forgotten that there are many other Internet cafes in China? Our Wujiang Group can launch an 'old computers for new computers' activity, so that we can obtain a large number of old computers at a low cost, and also We can take this opportunity to sell a large number of new computers! In addition, as the number of Internet cafes that replace computers increases, it will also be beneficial to the promotion of "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony"!"

Chai Hanfei did not become selfish because he was the CEO of Tenglong Internet Cafe. He proposed solutions to the problem from the perspective of the entire group.

When Zhao Ye heard this, he couldn't help but admire Chai Hanfei very much and praised: "Mr. Chai, these suggestions you gave are very good! Work hard, I'm optimistic about you!"

"Thank you, Director Zhao! This is just my responsibility!" Chai Hanfei said modestly.

Zhao Ye smiled, patted Chai Hanfei on the shoulder and said, "Okay, go and do your work. You will be responsible for donating computers to rural primary schools."

Chai Hanfei nodded.

Zhao Ye then called Liu Yinyin, mentioned Chai Hanfei's previous suggestions, and then asked her to notify the major companies under the group to cooperate.

……

In the afternoon of that day, the heads of several subsidiaries held a meeting to study and discuss the "old for new" plan.

A detailed plan was quickly drawn up.

The value of the old computers can be converted into a certain amount of money, and the Internet cafe owner can replace them with a batch of new computers as long as he pays another sum of money.In addition, since some Internet cafe owners really have no money, Galaxy Bank can provide loans to Internet cafe owners.

At this time, there is no way to do Internet cafe business without making money, and banks are not afraid of bad debts.

On the contrary, you can take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money from the Internet cafe owner.

At noon the next day, Wujiang Group announced the "old for new" campaign.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately spread among many Internet cafe owners, causing heated discussions among everyone.

"I'll go, Wujiang Group is so awesome, they actually offered such good conditions. I bought the computer here for half a year, and according to the 'trade-in' activity standard, I can even get a one-third discount on the price. It's so conscience! And it's also If I can get a loan from Galaxy Bank, I can update all the computers in the Internet cafe without spending a single cent!"

"Nah, it must be a Shenzhou computer. It is cost-effective when converted. The converted value of other brands of computers has plummeted!"

"Haha, that's for sure. Of course Wujiang Group will not pay for other brands of computers! So, when you open an Internet cafe in the future, you must buy Wujiang Group's computer brands. Maybe there will be a similar event next time!"

"The launch of Wujiang Group's 'trade-in' activity is obviously to prepare for the upcoming release of "Ancient World: Three Clans Struggle". However, if this game is not fun and players do not buy it, then those Internet cafes that update computer configurations will Isn’t the boss going to lose money to death? So, I still want to take another look at the situation before talking.”

"What you said above is right. I also plan to wait and see and not make a decision in a hurry."

"..." Wujiang Group's computer "trade-in" activity immediately caused a surge in sales of Shenzhou Computer.

Not only Internet cafe owners have placed orders, but even many home users are excited.

Other computer brands were hit hard.

For a time, sales of Lenovo, IBM, Dell, HP and other computer brands dropped sharply.

"You are not a son of a man!!! The Wujiang Group is so damn abominable. This is simply hurting people. Once this 'old-for-new' campaign is launched, who will buy our Lenovo computers!!" Yanagawa scolded angrily. He couldn't stop, his face was livid, and his anger had been suppressed for too long.

The current Lenovo company is only slightly better at computer products.

Many products developed before have failed, including the FM365 portal.

Hanka disappeared very early.

Plagiarized MP3s were not competitive enough and eventually withdrew from the market.

Lenovo's PC products are successful not because Lenovo computers themselves have high technical content, but because Lenovo's major shareholder is the Chinese Academy of Sciences, so it has received support from many government agencies and institutions.

At present, Wujiang Group has launched a "trade-in" program to directly seize old users in the market, which will make the living space of Lenovo computers smaller and smaller.

"Mr. Liu, we have roughly estimated that Wujiang Group will not lose money even if it 'trades in the old for the new'!" At this time, a Lenovo executive said with an ugly face, "The price of Shenzhou Computer 4 is as high as 1 yuan. But the actual cost price will not be higher than 2000 yuan. You must know that Wujiang Group has achieved 100% self-production of China Computer, including the most expensive chips, graphics cards, memory, hard drives, monitors, etc., all produced by itself. "

“A half-new and half-old China Computer 3s purchased less than half a year ago has a maximum discount price of only 5000 yuan. The Internet cafe owner must pay another 5000 yuan to buy the “China Computer 4”.For Wujiang Group, this is still a huge profit! "

Hearing this, Yanagawa was so angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

A "Kirin Pentium 4" CPU chip was sold to Lenovo for 1350 yuan.

A "Kunpeng 4" GPU graphics card was sold to Lenovo for 888 yuan.

In addition, there are memory, hard disk, graphics card, etc. As long as they are the latest ones, they are all expensive! ! !
If Lenovo Computer also launches a "trade-in" program with the same standards as Wujiang Group, it will definitely lose money.

And Wujiang Group can actually make a lot of money because its costs are very low.

This left Yanagawa very speechless, unwilling and helpless.

Lenovo has no technology and cannot produce products, so it can only buy other people's products.

Especially now, companies such as Nikon and Canon are still struggling with dry lithography machines, which has resulted in Wujiang Group’s absolute leading advantage in the chip field.

All major computer manufacturers in the world purchase high-end chips from Wujiang Group.

"Mr. Liu, it's so difficult for us. Without technology, we have no right to speak. Alas!!!!" A Lenovo executive couldn't help but sigh.

Yanagawa seemed to have a hint of regret at this time. If he had known this, he should not have kicked out the technical team in the first place. Otherwise, Lenovo would have been the most prosperous company today.

……

……

Wujiang Group's computer "trade-in" activity has stimulated many Internet cafe owners.

Many people felt that this was a rare opportunity to acquire Wujiang Group's wool, and there was also a bank loan, so they contacted Wujiang Group one after another.

A vigorous Internet cafe dress-up movement is taking place in China.

Abroad, in Europe and the United States, the Internet cafe industry is becoming increasingly sluggish.

In these developed countries, most households have purchased personal computers.

Therefore, the business of Internet cafes is relatively average.

Of course, if the location is better, the Internet cafe business can still be done, but Internet cafes in Europe and the United States have gradually upgraded to Internet cafes, integrating entertainment and leisure.

Tenglong Internet Cafe also has many stores abroad, and now they have also been renovated, waiting for the launch of "The Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony".

It is expected that the Internet cafe will be full of business at that time.

At around 11 o'clock in the evening on November 20, the official Weibo account of "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" finally uploaded more than a dozen screenshots of the "Prehistoric World: Three Tribes Struggle for Hegemony" game.

As soon as these game screenshots were released, they immediately caused a huge sensation on the Internet, and countless players were stunned.

"Holy shit, my God, is this a screenshot of a game?! If you didn't tell me this was a screenshot of a game, I would have thought it was a science fiction movie!"

"Oh my god, this is so awesome, this picture is just like the real thing!!!!"

"Is this a dragon??? Oh, God, the dragon in ancient Chinese mythology covers the sky and the sun, like a spaceship. It's so domineering. The cold light and metallic luster of the scales, the sharp and ferocious... The claws feel very powerful just by looking at them!!!”

"The scenery in the game is more picturesque than in reality. Even traveling in the game will be an extremely pleasant experience!"

"Yes, the scenery is really beautiful. It's steep, magnificent, beautiful, and majestic. There are many wonders that don't exist in reality. It's really like a fairyland."

"..."

Countless players are overjoyed. They have finally waited for the game "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle". It lives up to their expectations. The picture quality of this game is amazing!

"Oh, when will "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" be officially launched? I really can't wait for a moment!"

"Me too. When I saw these game screenshots, I felt very itchy. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

"..."

The next day, the screenshots of the game "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" undoubtedly topped the list of hot searches on Weibo, and the entire network exploded.

The players cheered collectively, and other game companies were trembling in shock.

The game quality is so amazing, is there any way for them to survive?

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the official Weibo account of "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" suddenly posted another message.

"Hello dear players, at 12 o'clock in the evening on December 1st, "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" will be officially launched. It is worth mentioning that "Prehistoric World: Three Clans Struggle for Hegemony" will be the first game in the world. The first free online game, we promise not to charge a penny for points, you can play as long as you want!"

Play for free? ? !
As soon as this Weibo was posted, players and game companies were all stunned...
