May 19th, Saturday …
Long Yu Corporation went to work as usual.
Eric and Zhao Xuming had already set an example to work overtime. The other ordinary employees naturally did not dare to rest at home.
What's more, they were still in the midst of a money-burning war with Tengda. The employees of Long Yu Corporation were very "aware" and all of them consciously came to work overtime.
In fact, some employees did not have such awareness at first, but those employees would basically not stay.
In the conference room, Zhao Xuming was reporting to Eric with a beaming face.
"Ever since our lucky draw was launched, the gamers' response has been quite enthusiastic. The popularity of the IOI mobile game incident has also been diluted!"
"Many gamers lost their memories on the spot. They even felt that our activities were more attractive than Tengda's 515 Games Festival."
"So far, the popularity of our lucky draw is still rising."
"The most important thing is that not only did we not burn too much money for the lucky draw this time, we even earned some. It might be a 30% discount but there is still some profit margin under accurate calculations! "
Zhao Xuming was obviously very proud. He was the one who came up with the idea of the lucky draw after all.
The lucky draw was not a new way to play but it should not be easy to accurately choose the lucky draw among the many ways to burn money, right?
He might have given most of the credit to Eric but Eric would definitely not treat him badly if he succeeded. If he failed, Eric would definitely be the one to bear the brunt of the blame.
Thus, Zhao Xuming worked even harder than usual when he reported.
Eric nodded slightly and asked, "How's the situation at Tengda?"
Zhao Xuming hesitated for a moment and answered, "Er … as far as I know, they are still resting as usual this weekend."
"There doesn't seem to be any adjustments to the 515 Games Festival."
Eric couldn't help but reveal an expression of surprise.
Boss Pei … could be so calm?
Eric had thought that Boss Pei would definitely not be willing to be outdone and start a new activity. He would definitely try his best to surpass him, be it a lucky draw or something else.
He did not expect Boss Pei to not do anything and even rest normally over the weekend.
Eric pondered. Based on Boss Pei's swift and decisive personality, Friday would be enough for him to come up with a countermeasure and go online quickly over the weekend.
However, there were only two possibilities if Boss Pei did not do anything.
The first was that Boss Pei felt that he did not need to do anything.
The second was that Boss Pei was helpless.
Do I really not need to do anything?
Eric did not think so. After all, from the feedback online, Long Yu Corporation's lucky draw was very popular. It had obviously snatched away a lot of the popularity that belonged to the 515 Games Festival.
In that case, it could only be the second situation.
Boss Pei wanted to do something, but he was powerless!
Eric couldn't help but smile, "As I expected."
"It feels good to burn money like Boss Pei.
But it wasn't long enough. How could they be like us, who are meticulous in their planning and planning for a long time? "
Zhao Xuming instantly understood something.
His eyes widened slightly, "You mean …"
"Tengda finally doesn't have enough funds?"
Eric smiled. "I can't say for sure, but it's very possible."
This was very much in line with their previous deduction.
Tengda Corporation had invested its funds into so many projects?
The payment for 'Mission and Choice' had yet to arrive?
The smart fitness drying rack had a large amount of stock.
Forcing himself to organize the 515 Games Festival had probably consumed the last large sum of funds that Boss Pei could use.
Even if Boss Pei thought of ways to raise funds now?
It would definitely take some time.
That was why Boss Pei did not retaliate immediately and let nature take its course?
He allowed Long Yu Corporation's lucky draw to snatch the popularity that the 515 Games Festival had painstakingly built up.
Once the funds were raised?
Only then could he retaliate.
Zhao Xuming's eyes lit up.
That seemed to be the case if he analyzed it!
Of course, he could never underestimate Boss Pei.
However, the facts were becoming more and more consistent with this bold deduction.
Suddenly?
Zhao Xuming thought of something.
Did he just find out about this?
He could report it now that Eric was in a good mood.
"That's right, I just found out about something. I'd like to report it to you."
"There seems to be a lucky draw system in the Fitness Battle. However, this lucky draw system can only be unlocked after clearing the first chapter, so I didn't notice it before?
I only discovered it after reading the discussions online. "
"This lucky draw is very special. It can be refunded unconditionally."
"Do you think this is Boss Pei's backup plan?"
The Fitness Battle had only been released for two days?
Zhao Xuming realized that it was already relatively fast.
Originally, Zhao Xuming and his subordinates should play it as a competitive game, right?
However, the problem was that the Fitness Battle was not a mobile game that could be upgraded just by moving one's fingers. It required a lot of time to train!
Zhao Xuming and his subordinates were all busy with the lucky draw?
They had a lot of work on hand?
How could they have the time to train in the Fitness Battle?
If not for the fact that there had been a lot of posts on the internet about the results of the Fitness Battle's lucky draw …
Zhao Xuming would probably only discover it a day or two later.
Eric was stunned. "Unconditional refund for the lucky draw?"
"This lucky draw only draws props in the game? Is there anything from other games? Are there any physical items? "
"Apart from being refundable, is there anything else special?"
Zhao Xuming answered truthfully, "It's just a lucky draw system in the game. Naturally, it can only draw props in the game. There are no physical items or anything else special. It's a very simple lucky draw system."
Eric fell into deep thought.
A moment later, he said, "The refundable part is indeed more conscientious than us, but it's only in-game props. It shouldn't be very attractive to gamers."
"Our lucky draw can recover blood, but the lucky draw of the Fitness Battle will greatly reduce the game's income."
"What's more, the Fitness Battle was developed a long time ago. This lucky draw system might have been created earlier than us. It's most likely a coincidence. It's harmless."
Zhao Xuming immediately nodded. "Yes, I think so too."
"I've read it carefully. The lucky draw system of the Fitness Battle might have caused a certain amount of discussion on the internet, but the current public opinion would not pose any threat to our lucky draw. It would not be able to snatch the popularity."
Eric was in a good mood. He sorted out the work at hand and said, "Alright, everyone doesn't have to come tomorrow after we finish working overtime today!"
"Since Boss Pei is resting, let's rest too!"
Tengda had obviously given up. If the employees did not work, no one would cooperate with Boss Pei even if he wanted to cause trouble.
Since that was the case, he could just keep an eye on them on Monday.
In any case, the 515 Games Festival would end at 24 PM next Tuesday. Obviously, Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation would win if this popularity continued.
At the thought of this, Eric smiled.
This mood obviously affected the employees below as well.
They were finally going to see the light after working so hard for so long!
No one dared to guarantee it but most people believed that there might be some problems with Tengda's funds. Boss Pei did not retaliate immediately as proof!
This was a good thing to boost morale even if it was not very dangerous.
Under this kind of optimistic mood, the news naturally spread out slowly …
…
At the same time, Pei Qian had just woken up.
On Thursday, he had bought a 3A masterpiece. It was really fun. Thus, he had been playing games at home for the entire day on Friday, including last night.
He had stayed up late to clear the game yesterday, so he did not wake up until noon today.
After washing up, Pei Qian reluctantly took out his cell phone and glanced at it.
There was no new news.
He felt especially regretful that Assistant Xin did not send any news.
That meant that Tengda's funds had not encountered any problems. He did not need to prepare to sell the building.
That made him feel a little uncomfortable.
He had already spent so much on the 515 Games Festival. Logically speaking, he should be spending money quite quickly, right?
He continued scrolling through his cell phone to check the news for the past two days.
"Eh?"
"Long Yu Corporation is organizing a lucky draw?"
"The grand prize is a car? That works too! "
"Why the f * ck didn't I think of this!"
Pei Qian felt light-headed.
He had been playing games so hard for the past two days that he did not pay much attention to the news online.
He did not have to keep an eye on the company because if anything happened, someone would naturally call him. No one would call him, which meant that everything was fine.
He did not expect Long Yu Corporation to organize such an event after not paying attention to it for a day!
Logically speaking, Pei Qian would not be interested in ordinary lucky draws. However, this lucky draw for a car … was indeed quite eye-catching!
"That's not right. Isn't this kind of activity restricted?"
Pei Qian suddenly realized that something was amiss.
That was because in his memory, only certain companies' annual meeting prizes were cars. He had never seen such a consumer event's prize be a car.
The highest-value prize he had seen in lucky draws was something like a laptop.
It seemed to be because there was a clear rule that the highest value of the prize could not exceed 50,000 yuan.
Pei Qian quickly searched for a car because it was not a consumer event.
Pei Qian quickly searched and realized that it was because of the changes in the world. The relevant rules had become much more relaxed. They had relaxed from the original 50,000 yuan to 400,000 yuan.
In other words, Long Yu Corporation's special prize was stuck at the threshold of 400,000 yuan. It was not considered a violation.
"F * ck! If I had known, I would have organized a lucky draw as well! "
"Wouldn't it be fine if you drew one and I drew ten?"
"System, you saw it. They were the ones who attacked first. It's not too much for me to retaliate, right?"
"It's a pity that today is not a working day. Even if we want to hold this lucky draw, we can only wait until Monday. By the time it's developed, the 515 Games Festival will have passed. "
Pei Qian could not help but feel a little regretful.
It was impossible for his employees to work overtime on the weekends. That was a matter of principle.
However, on further thought, it was good to let Long Yu Corporation cause a ruckus over the weekend.
Only by snatching more popularity would Pei Qian be able to burn more money. Otherwise, the System would not agree.
Eric always thought that popularity was very important to Boss Pei, but that was not the case.
Boss Pei did not care about popularity at all. He only cared about how to burn more money.
Then, he looked at the news from the Fitness Battle.
Pei Qian was beaming when he saw players refunding one by one. There were also weirdos who had recharged tens of thousands of yuan but only kept ten consecutive draws.
"Children are worth teaching!"
"These players are so worry-free. I don't even need to teach them to understand my intentions very accurately!"
"Why are there players who are too lazy to refund? Is the refund mechanism I designed not convenient enough? "
"Work harder! How dare you call yourself a sheep if you don't even have the strength to pull wool? "
Pei Qian's mood improved as he looked at the refunds.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly at the moment. When the 515 Games Festival ended next Tuesday, he would think of a way to spend money. He would definitely be able to achieve something.
However, at that moment, a push notification popped up on the Aili Island app on Pei Qian's cell phone.
The UP Master that he paid special attention to had updated his video!
Pei Qian's expression changed instantly.
That was because the video was posted by Teacher Qiao. The title was' Games Talk: Lucky Draws'!
However, Pei Qian felt a little more at ease after seeing the title of the game.
Fortunately, it was not the Products of the Gods series.
From the title, it seemed to be a popular science video.
It should not cause any harm … right?
