"Boss Pei, this way please."
Chang You led Boss Pei and Meng Chang to the entertainment room of Otto Technologies.
Meng Chang saw the special machine in the corner of the entertainment room at a glance.
The shape was very unique, but he could tell at a glance that it was some kind of fitness equipment.
Chang You introduced. "This is a sample sent over by the factory a few days ago. To be honest, it's a little more troublesome to assemble than ordinary fitness equipment. The structure is more complicated after all, and the components are very heavy. Therefore, we have to install it at the door. It's more difficult for customers to install it themselves. "
Pei Qian nodded. "Of course, we have to install it. Isn't that a given?"
In fact, it was not difficult to install it. Many fitness equipment used a similar model: find some specialized distributors to work with all over the country, give them a sum of money, and let the workers at the distributor learn how to dismantle and install the equipment, carry out simple troubleshooting and maintenance. Once the goods were delivered, let the workers in the same city install it.
Of course, it would be even simpler if it was in a city with Upwind Logistics. These things could be done by Upwind Logistics' courier.
Pei Qian thought for a moment and added, "Not only do we have to install it, but we also have to move it. After buying the 'Smart Drying Rack', customers can have a free moving opportunity once a year if they want to move. Our after-sales staff will come to dismantle the product, box it up, and move it to their new home in the same city. "
"Of course, if the number of times exceeded or if it is cross-city transportation, the money will have to be calculated separately."
Pei Qian's idea was to give more benefits if he could. Once he gave this promise, wouldn't he be able to incur more losses every time he moved it?
Chang You pondered for a moment. "Er … that's not difficult to do. However, it will further increase our maintenance costs in the future."
"Our product itself might not be able to earn much money. If we move it for free, the cost will add up to a terrifying amount!"
"But … this is great news for the customers. After all, most of the people who buy fitness equipment are young people. They do not have their own houses and often have to move if they rent. They can't move such a huge piece of equipment themselves. If they hand it over to the movers, the movers will not dismantle it. What's more, they might have to pay extra. If we can solve this problem, these renters should be very happy. "
Pei Qian said, "That's good. Making customers happy has always been our aim."
"As for the cost, that's just a small problem. We can always find ways to make up for it in other areas."
Chang You nodded. "Yes, Boss Pei makes sense."
With a flash of inspiration, Pei Qian spent another sum of money. He was elated.
He and Meng Chang continued to size up the "smart fitness drying rack".
The real thing was very different from what Pei Qian had imagined. Obviously, the product manager of Otto Technologies had repeatedly communicated with the factory. They had combined safety, practicality, portability after disassembly, and other factors to make the design plan many times.
Chang You introduced, "This machine can perform a total of nine types of exercises, namely butterfly chest clamps, straight back clamps, reverse arm spans, pull-ups, seated rowing, pull-ups, rope curls, bench press, and weighted squats. The muscles that are trained include the chest, back, waist, arms, legs, and other core muscle groups of the body. However, when performing different movements, the machine needs to be adjusted …"
Chang You explained as he adjusted the shape of the machine.
What was worth mentioning was that while many of the functions of this machine were exactly the same as some of the equipment in the gym, there was a huge difference in appearance.
For example, bench press. Squatting in the gym was done with a gantry rack. There were barbell bars, hooks, and barbell plates on it.
However, there were two problems with practicing squats this way. First, it would be very uncomfortable to use one's shoulders and neck to push against the metal barbell bar unless one's trapezius muscles were especially developed. Many people would use yoga mats to do squats on their necks, which was very inconvenient. Second, if one wanted to change the weight, they would have to manually change the barbell plates. It was still more troublesome.
On the other hand, the smart fitness drying rack optimized this problem. First, it added a protective cushion in the middle of the barbell bar. Second, it added basic weight modules on both sides of the barbell bar to maintain balance. It also shared the weight with butterfly chest clamps, pull-ups, and other movements. That would save them the trouble of changing the barbell plates. They could just change the position of the weight.
What's more, this would save them more space.
The only problem was that this meant that all the parts used on the smart fitness drying rack could not be used with other fitness equipment.
However, this was not a big problem. After all, it was the only fitness equipment for customers in most scenarios.
Pei Qian's expression turned solemn after listening to Chang You's introduction.
It seemed … quite reliable?
However, the more reliable it was, the more ridiculous it was!
This "smart fitness drying rack" was an idea that Pei Qian had come up with on a whim. At that time, he felt that it would definitely be a pile of steel trash that no one would buy.
However, now that he had seen the sample, Pei Qian suddenly felt that this thing seemed to be attractive to ordinary consumers?
Dangerous, very dangerous!
Chang You had already finished introducing the basic usage of this equipment. He looked at Pei Qian. "Boss Pei, the game 'Fitness Battle' that comes with the 'smart fitness drying rack' is almost completed. The DEMO has been sent over. Why don't you experience it for yourself?"
Pei Qian remained silent for a moment before looking at Meng Chang. "Go!"
Meng Chang was dumbfounded.
Chang You said to let you go, alright!
Pei Qian saw Meng Chang's confused expression and cleared his throat. "You're in charge of the publicity plan. How can you not experience it for yourself? I'll give you a chance to experience it first. Go. "
Meng Chang cursed in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. He still sat down.
Chang You took a tablet computer from the side and pulled down a simple retractable stand from the top of the smart fitness drying rack. It was just right for the tablet computer to be placed on it.
Chang You explained, "We designed the size of this stand according to the size of the tablet computer. Of course, cell phones support it."
"If it's a particularly rich customer, you can not use this stand. Instead, you can place a television opposite the equipment."
"After 'Fitness Battle' and the smart fitness drying rack are connected through Bluetooth, it will sense the current state through the sensor inside the equipment. When the customer wants to do something, it will guide the customer to make corresponding adjustments to the equipment."
Meng Chang experienced it as Chang You introduced it.
He decided to do a more basic action first. Butterfly Crossing Chest.
For male beginners, the chest was obviously one of the parts that was worth training the most. That was because compared to the back, abdomen, and other parts, the chest muscles were larger. It was the fastest to train them. What's more, he could also train his arms.
As long as the muscles in his arms and chest were trained, it would have an obvious effect of "propping up the clothes". His entire temperament would also improve.
What's more, as long as the chest muscles were big enough, the belly would not be so obvious. On the other hand, training his abdominal muscles would not be able to reduce the fat on his belly.
Many of the guidance functions in front were temporarily missing because it was a DEMO. Meng Chang clicked on the screen, chose a character, and began to train.
He chose a cute girl. The cute girl first guided him to adjust the state of the smart fitness drying rack. Then, she began to explain the essentials and strength points of the butterfly crossing chest. Finally, she did the movements with him.
This cute girl's figure was slightly plump.
For young women, a body fat of 20% was considered a relatively good state. At 25%, there was basically no excess fat on her abdomen. At 30%, it could not be seen with clothes on, but if she exposed her waist, her small belly could be seen. When it reached 35%, the "swimming ring" on her stomach could be clearly seen.
This character's body fat rate had basically reached 35%, and her goal was to train her body fat rate to below 20%.
During the exercise, the cute girl on the screen would continuously cheer Meng Chang on.
Pei Qian suddenly thought of a question and asked, "The characters, costumes, props, scenes … these should all be value-added services, right? Do you want to draw or buy it directly? "
Chang You answered, "I only confirmed the profit method of free games and value-added services previously, but I haven't decided on the specific method."
"If you buy it directly, it might be a little more conscientious, and your reputation would be better. If you draw, you might earn more money, but you might also be scolded."
"Of course, unless it's a draw like Ghost General. However, the investment in 'Fitness Battle' is much greater than 'Ghost General'. To be honest, we won't be able to recover our capital if we have that much conscience. "
"Boss Pei, you decide what to do."
Pei Qian fell into deep thought.
His first reaction was to buy it directly. Whether it was the costumes, props, or scenes, they were all clearly priced. For example, he could buy a complete set for one to two hundred yuan. It should be less profitable than the lucky draw.
However, on further thought, something was amiss.
Wasn't Ghost General popular because of this back then?
At that time, Pei Qian had wanted to create a paywalls online game that did not require paywalls. In the end, he did not expect gamers to be so conscientious and mindlessly throw money into it. They earned a lot by relying on small profits but quick turnover.
It was the same for Fitness Battle. What if the price was too conscientious and gamers expressed their desire to buy it?
He should not make the mistake he had already made again.
If it was a lucky draw, he could lower the probability of producing goods. That would definitely cause him to be scolded. However, the problem was that some people would curse while drawing. The more they could not draw, the more excited those ballers would be.
In the end, how uncomfortable would it be to be scolded and earn money?
Could he think of another internal purchase model?
