Chapter 10 Nash Equilibrium
After finally defeating the Snake King, Han Yang just wanted to take a rest, but unexpectedly, the messages on his phone started to ding-dong-ding-dong.When I picked up my phone and looked at it, I saw a flood of consultation messages coming over me.

"How much does it cost to fight Galactus? How long does it take? Do you think I can do it with my attributes?"

"How much does the red iron behemoth cost?"

"How much does it cost to fight an Avenger?"

Those who come for consultation are all high-end orders similar to those of Snake King.Han Yang was so happy that he immediately began to reply without taking a rest.Combining the attribute maps provided by customers, Hanyang still provided more favorable prices as usual.

I take orders that others dare not take.I will give you the price that others dare not give!

Business at Renaissance Games Studios is booming once again.In order to accept these high-priced orders, Han Yang even had to suspend the acceptance of some ordinary orders.

There is no way, the business is so good that four computers can't handle it.

But Han Yang did not put all four computers on such a high-price list.No matter how many high-price orders there are, he will only accept two at the same time, allowing two computers to place them, while the other two will continue to place ordinary orders.

The reason is simple: Han Yang’s computing power is not enough.

That chip, which can barely reach a frequency of 30KHZ after overclocking, really cannot provide such a large amount of calculation.However, the more difficult the BOSS is, the higher the demand for technology and computing power.Operating two computers at the same time to place high-end orders is already the limit.

But even so, Han Yang's income once again achieved a surge.

The average hourly wage of two computers dedicated to high-end orders has increased sharply to 39 yuan, and the average hourly wage of two computers dedicated to low-end orders has also increased to 7.1 yuan.The total cost of four computers is almost 2200 yuan a day, and more than 6 yuan a month!

This income cannot be said to be high. For others, he would have been a high-income earner that everyone would envy, but Han Yang was still not satisfied.

It's still too slow to make money.

There is no way, in Han Yang's plan, all the performance of the new generation chip must be greatly improved, at least to provide him with an increase of more than ten times in computing power.As a result, the requirements for machining accuracy and parts have been greatly increased.Correspondingly, prices have also skyrocketed.

The material cost for making that chip before was nearly [-] yuan.This time, the material cost would cost [-] to [-] yuan.

Although you make more money, your expenses are also high.Han Yang was still stretched thin.

"It's time to change our business strategy and maximize profits."

Han Yang began to think silently.

The computing power is fixed, and so are the four computers.There is also a specialized study of how to utilize existing equipment and conditions to maximize profits without changing the status quo.

This science is the famous Nash equilibrium.

Nash equilibrium belongs to the category of game theory. Simply put, it is the study of optimal strategies.

Every aspect of daily life may involve Nash equilibrium.For example, if a store sells steamed buns, if it makes 1000 steamed buns every day, there will be surplus and is wasted. If it makes 800 steamed buns every day, it will not be enough to sell. At the same time, if the price of the steamed buns is high, fewer people will buy it. If the price of the steamed buns is low, the profit will be low, but the number of people who buy it will be low. There are many people. In this case, how many buns should be made every day and how much should each bun be priced to maximize the store owner's income? The Nash equilibrium theory can be used to answer this question.Now, Han Yang plans to use this theory to formulate his own optimal pricing strategy.

At this moment, he has passed the initial stage where he could only rely on low prices to attract customers, and he can increase prices appropriately.

For Han Yang, if the price is high, there will be fewer customers; if the price is low, there will be more customers but he will not be able to win over them.If there are too many high-end orders, low-end orders will be squeezed, and the computing power will not be enough.If there are fewer connections, computing power will be wasted.

At this moment, what he wants to achieve is to have four computers working at full capacity without shutting down, so that his computing power can be maintained at the maximum at all times, and then earn the most money.

Based on his actual situation, Han Yang quickly listed a very complex equation and entered various parameters into it.

"Total computing power, 30KHZ, price parameters, time parameters, customer flow parameters, conversion rate, transaction rate..."

More than 20 parameters have been added to this equation.After a moment of calculation, Han Yang came to the final conclusion.

"The price should be directly linked to the computing power expenditure. The average pricing should be 8.5% lower than the market price to maximize returns."

In this way, the order quantity will be maintained at a slight surplus every day, and there will not be too much backlog, nor will there be a situation where there is no order left.Your own computing power expenditure will also be maintained at a high level, which will neither be unsustainable nor cause a waste of computing power, ultimately achieving the goal of maximizing returns.

After calculating the conclusion, Han Yang immediately updated the store and raised the prices of all products appropriately.

As expected, the price increase immediately caused a rebound from customers, and the transaction rate dropped instantly.Many customers immediately canceled their orders after seeing the price increase.

But it doesn't matter, this can just reduce the backlog of orders.

I tried running it for two days and the situation was generally stable.Looking back and taking stock again, Han Yang immediately saw that the total average hourly wage of the four computers had increased again, to about 120 yuan.

In this way, the income per day is 2880 yuan, which is almost 8.6 yuan per month.

This number made Han Yang quite satisfied.However, he also knows that at this stage, the potential of his equipment and computing power has been tapped to the limit.Without improving computing power and expanding scale, it is no longer possible for your income to increase.

"Then keep it like this for now."

Han Yang thought secretly: "You can buy a little of the materials for making new chips first, and don't rush to buy them all at once. After buying them, you can also try to make some unimportant parts first and accumulate some experience."

In the past month, Han Yang does not plan to make any big moves.Everything is about stability.

At this moment, where Han Yang couldn't see it, Fuxing Game Studio's reputation was quietly expanding.With the word-of-mouth spread from many old customers, more and more players who were trapped by the BOSS came to the game spontaneously.

"Boss, can you fight the Light Eater? This is my attribute map. Can you fight? That's okay... what? Do you still have to queue up? Three days later? Boss, can I add more money? Can't you even add more money? Just leave the money. Don’t earn it?”

"Boss, the delivery has been confirmed and the praise has been added. Make a reservation in advance and fight the tree demon in five days."
