The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 91 Luo Ming’s Ambition

“Yes, the distribution channels take into account both online and offline, and there are a variety of platforms and payment methods, so it is comprehensive.

For a newcomer who has never done publishing, this is already pretty good. "Sister Shan praised.

Rong Mu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It was affirmed by professionals, which meant that his work this week had not been in vain.

Luo Ming went to Shanghai last week. In order not to affect the progress of game development, he first asked his close friends in the university to help build the official website of Burning Light, and then talked with people from Sony about the game on ps4. The matter of sale.

The price of Sony's games is generally between 2500 and 4000 yen, which works out to about 20 yuan.

People from Sony are very optimistic about the game after trying out "Plants vs. Zombies" and are very willing to let "Plants vs. Zombies" be released on PS4. The suggested price they gave is 29.9 yuan.

Rong Mu thought for a while and insisted on the price of 19.9 yuan, because the price has already been negotiated by Steam. If the price is temporarily raised, he will have to negotiate with Steam again. Not to mention the delay will also affect Zhuoguang's success on Steam. The corporate image there is not worth the loss.

Although people from Sony expressed regret for this, they did not refuse cooperation.

Ps4 is an important monetization method for Sony in the next few years. It is impossible to reject an excellent game because of this small problem.

Besides, Sony only takes a commission, and Zhuoguang gets the bulk of it. Zhuoguang himself doesn’t mind making less money, so what else can they say?

Finally, Rong Mu also talked with WeChat and Alipay about paying for software when purchasing activation codes.

At this stage, the two companies are competing to seize the payment market. Even for a small workshop like Zhuoguang, both parties have shown great sincerity and sent special personnel to talk to Rong Mu.

Perhaps because Zhuoguang made a game like 2048 that caused a small sensation, the two companies unanimously gave Zhuoguang some small benefits. Penguin, which started out in games, has a great advantage in this regard. Penguin said that if Zhuoguang Guang is willing to kick out Alipay and let WeChat pay exclusively. They are willing to give "Plants vs. Zombies" a pop-up push on QQ.

Rong Mu was moved at that time, and he really wanted to agree.

It's a pity that he can't agree, because neither Penguin nor Ali can be offended by the current Burning Light.

Besides, Zhuoguang’s online store will be opened on Taobao! Online stores are also one of the sales channels.

So Rong Mu could only reluctantly reject Penguin's proposal and added WeChat and Alipay to the payment list at the same time.

In this way, Penguin's pop-up recommendation is naturally gone, but the small benefits provided by both parties are still there. The two parties have a tacit understanding to provide a random instant discount event.

Regardless of whether you use WeChat or Alipay, if you purchase the activation code of "Plants vs. Zombies" directly on the Zhuoguang official website, you will have a certain probability of receiving an immediate discount. The minimum is 0.1 yuan, and the maximum is free of charge. The probability of getting free of charge is tens of millions. one part.

Rong Mu also reported these situations to Sister Shan. After hearing this, Sister Shan nodded: "Yes, Mr. Rong, you have basically done everything you can do. The next step is my work. Mr. Rong can talk to me conveniently." How much money is there in the company account?"

Rong Mu secretly glanced at Lin Shuwen.

Lin Shuwen nodded at him.

"Luo Ming" all nodded, and Rong Mu did not hide anything: "Sister Shan, Miss Lin invested a total of 500 million for us before. After throwing the 500 million away to buy computers, office desks, and decoration, there was still 427.32 million left. .

然后就是2048的进项了，上上周2048的盈利是297.32万，上周2048的收益是966.85万元，平均一天的收入是138万。

This week, pirated versions of the 2048 game have appeared on the market, and our revenue has been cut in half. On Monday, we only had a profit of just over 60.

Yesterday, Monday, Luo Ming called and asked me to transfer 300 million to a research group at Fudan University. I sent the money in the morning.

Then I paid a deposit of 5 yuan to engrave the game disc.

So as of now, there is a total of 1446.39 million yuan in the company's account. "

"Is it almost 1450 million? You have made so much money in just one month since its establishment. You really have two skills!" Sister Shan sighed. “I am responsible for the business side, mainly to make Luo Ming’s games good.”

"I'm still being humble. The division of labor between you two is that one is in technology and the other is in management! It's good for each to perform his own duties.

Luo Ming, I need 1450 million of Rong Mu’s 1000 million for publicity. "

"1000 million!" Rong Mu was startled.

Lin Shuwen on the side was also full of surprise.

"Yes, 1000 million."

"Why does Sister Shan want so much money?" Lin Shuwen asked.

"Is Luo Mingqian pretending to be stupid?" Sister Shan asked with a half-smile.

Lin Shuwen was confused. Did Luo Ming do something she didn't know about?

"Are you still pretending? In this game of yours, from the name of the owner of the house, Dave, to the fact that the notes given after each pass are bilingual in Chinese and English, to Dave's voice acting, what kind of crookedness is this? Waibibabu, I suspected that your goal from the beginning of this game was not just domestic, but overseas.

I just heard Rong Mu talk about your sales channels. Two of the four sales channels are for overseas, which proves my suspicion. "

After listening to Sister Shan's words, Rong Mu suddenly remembered that when Luo Ming was making "Plants vs. Zombies", he always said that he wanted to sell it on Steam.

Later, Zhao Ningyuan was asked to find his friends at Sony. Is this guy so ambitious?

The key is that the ambition is great, but you didn't tell him?

Thinking of this, Rong Mu turned to look at "Luo Ming".

To be honest, Lin Shuwen is still in a state of confusion at the moment, she doesn't know anything!

But her expression was smiling, as if she had the pearls of wisdom in her hands.

Seeing this, Sister Shan rolled her eyes and continued: "Luo Ming, since your game is focused on overseas, you shouldn't be petty from the beginning.

The quality of your game is not bad, so we simply promoted it directly. In China, we can use a small trick to win sympathy and buy hot searches. "

"What little trick?" Rong Mu asked curiously.

"It's simple, the game leaked."

"Game leaked? This."

"Don't worry, the leak doesn't reveal everything. It only reveals the first few levels, about 2-5, plus an interesting level."

Rong Mu was still a little confused, but Lin Shuwen, who had been in the entertainment industry for a year, understood.

"Sister Shan, are you trying to win the sympathy of netizens with this trick?"

"Yes, I did a survey before coming here. Domestic game users are not interested in buy-out games. They prefer free sex. At this time, we need to use some means to win their sympathy.

Influenced by Confucian culture, most people in the country sympathize with the weak.

Originally, game companies and players are antagonistic, and game companies cannot be considered weak in the eyes of players, but what if the game that the game company has worked hard to develop for several years is leaked in advance? Several years of hard work are about to be wasted. Will game companies become weak at this time? "
