In the afternoon.
Seeing that it was almost the weekend, Pei Qian briefly sorted out the current situation of the various industries in his office.
The new projects of Tengda Games, Shang Yang Games, Otto Technologies, Fei Huang Workspace, and other departments had already been released. What's more, they were well-received. It felt like it was difficult to save them.
Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Fish-Catching Take-Out, Upwind Logistics, Deposit Fitness, Sloth Apartments, and other physical industries, as well as Bunny Tail Live-Stream, Dream Realization Ventures, and other departments were still expanding according to their original plans. There was nothing special worth mentioning.
However, it was nearing the end of settlement. There were still some departments that were still finishing up the settlement. There seemed to be some possibility of saving them.
For example, the renovation of the snack market was almost complete according to the previous plan. It was expected to officially open at the end of next month.
Tengda's large-scale experience store was also in the midst of preparations. According to the original plan, it would start trial operations on the 10th of next month. It would officially open on the 24th after the large screen was installed.
Slow Movement Workspace was expected to take out the finished VR glasses at the end of July and install a DEMO of Animal Island for experience. The official release of the game might be delayed by another two months or so.
The system's control was relatively loose because Slow Movement Workspace was not directly controlled by Tengda. It would not strictly require an official product to be released before settlement.
Thus, Pei Qian was not very concerned about the construction period here. Even if he had to worry about making money, it would be for the next cycle.
In addition, the roller coaster project of Thriller Hostel had been under construction. The construction period was relatively long. It was estimated that it would take at least four to five months to complete.
Pei Qian considered that if he had money that he could not spend at the end of this cycle, he could temporarily invest more in this roller coaster project. He could let it eat up more funds as much as possible without seriously affecting the construction period.
In addition, Pei Qian had also planned a way to spend money this cycle.
Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation had been in a dormant state ever since they were beaten up by Tengda during the '515 Games Festival' money-burning war.
They were not anxious, but Pei Qian was.
Since they were not spending money, Pei Qian had to do something to stimulate them and make them continue to burn money. That way, he could not trigger the system's warning and continue the price war.
The date Pei Qian chose was the end of June. This period was the 'summer rush' for many American companies. Finger Games would definitely launch a series of preferential activities at this special time. Otherwise, they would appear too unsociable and be scolded by overseas players.
What Pei Qian wanted to do was to start the summer promotion a few days in advance!
Take the lead and offer all kinds of generous benefits?
How could Finger Games not follow? How could they not give a discount?
He had to grit his teeth and suppress Tengda before the summer season officially began.
So?
Then, Pei Qian could introduce a series of new benefits, and both parties could continue to burn happily.
Of course?
Surely the second batch of new benefits wouldn't affect the initial benefits?
They should not overlap with each other, so it would not affect the interests of the first batch of players.
Had Pei Qian already planned everything out happily?
He was just waiting for the right time to show off his skills.
Sometimes, Pei Qian would feel emotional, thanking the heavens for giving him Finger Games and Dayak Corporation.
If these two companies did not exist?
Would GOG quickly occupy the global MOBA market?
At that time, Pei Qian would not be able to find an opponent even if he wanted to burn money. How terrible would that be?
After sorting out the current situation, Pei Qian was surprised to find that the situation in this cycle did not seem to be out of control. It was still acceptable.
Even though Mission and Choice was popular?
Otto Technologies' new cell phones and smart fitness drying racks were also selling well?
Tengda's various departments were also developing like wildfire …
However, there was still hope of incurring losses!
Pei Qian felt that this represented his growth!
Thinking back to the first few settlement cycles, he was destined to earn money before the end of the month. Pei Qian was like a salted fish that could not turn over, waiting for the final judgment to arrive.
But now?
Salted fish could work hard to turn over!
What a joyous occasion.
Pei Qian continued flipping through the recent developments of the various departments and suddenly discovered a department that he had not paid attention to for a long time.
Zhongdian Chinese Network!
To further wear down the fighting spirit of the authors?
In order to reduce the content output of Zhongdian Chinese Network, Pei Qian specially set up an "inspiration class".
A huge television, a huge number of movies and games, and a comfortable single-seater sofa?
The separate "inspiration collection area" and "work area" were all tempting the salted fish in the authors' hearts.
After the inspiration class was officially opened?
Pei Qian did not pay too much attention to it.
On one hand, it was because Zhongdian Chinese Network was compared to other departments.
Its profitability was not at the top?
It was not worth Pei Qian spending too much energy on it. On the other hand, it was because these authors were creating very slowly in the "inspiration class". It would be not bad if they could write 400,000 words in three months.
On the other hand, it would take at least three to four months for a book to become popular. The cycle was very long. It was meaningless to keep staring at it.
Pei Qian looked at the date. This inspiration class had been opened in early February. It was now the end of May. The timing was just right.
The inspiration class had a requirement for the number of words that these authors would write. It would not be too long, so the approximate time of writing could be estimated.
Those who wrote faster might be close to the end of the novel; those who wrote slower would be at least halfway through.
Thus, Pei Qian felt that he could understand the specific situation of this inspiration class.
Perhaps there would be a pleasant surprise?
Pei Qian had also specially collected the new books that a few authors had opened at that time. Thus, he immediately opened the Zhongdian Chinese Network application that had been collecting dust for a long time to check.
Pei Qian's eyes lit up the moment he opened the details page of the first book.
"The data is so bleak?"
Whether it was the recommendation votes, monthly votes, or other data, or even the number of words updated, they were all very bleak.
In the past, this author had often been in the top three of the category rankings. Now, he had fallen out of the top ten. It was obvious how badly the data had fallen.
He opened another four to five books in a row. The situation was similar!
The one with the best data was an official novel, Eternal Fallen Samsara, which was created with Repent and be Saved as the background. The data of this book was ranked in the top five in the fantasy zone. It was around twenty to thirty in the entire website.
Even so, it was the best result that the authors of the inspiration class had achieved.
Pei Qian flipped through the comments section of these books and looked at the readers' feedback. He immediately smiled.
That was because these authors had been good at online creation previously. Now that they had suddenly changed to such a compact structure, many authors were actually not used to it. That was because it was difficult to use their previous creative experience.
The slow update speed was also unbearable for most readers.
It would be very torturous for readers to read 4,000 pages a day. However, it would be barely acceptable if the quality was good.
However, it would be a disaster if it was 1,000 pages a day.
Unless the quality was so outstanding that people would read the monthly updates.
However, it was obvious that the authors of the inspiration class could not do that.
Thus, the results of these books were not good. Some of the authors seemed to have been dealt a huge blow. They said in their messages that they would go back to write the theme that they were good at after this book was completed.
In addition, Pei Qian specially took a look at Cui Geng's new book, Successor. He realized that the results of this book were slightly worse than Eternal Fallen Samsara. It was about forty in the entire website.
For Cui Geng, who had once reached the top of Zhongdian Chinese Network, a result of around forty was obviously unacceptable.
After all, Zhongdian Chinese Network was different from a big website like Infinite Chinese Network. Relatively speaking, its readership and author base were relatively small. The data of the book in the top fifty might have shrunk by ten times compared to Cui Geng's previous books.
Pei Qian read all of them. The results were beyond optimistic.
The creations of these authors from the inspiration class could basically be said to have ended in complete failure if judged according to the standards of online literature!
Boss Pei had to step forward to comfort the injured hearts of the authors.
Pei Qian immediately decided to make a trip to the inspiration class.
The authors in the inspiration class might have bought a fixed rate and earned a lot of money, but many authors did not want to continue writing.
For many authors, the loneliness of writing books without anyone reading them was far more terrifying than earning less money.
Thus, Pei Qian felt that he should comfort them again and strengthen their confidence to continue writing.
Even if some of them ran away, some of them had to stay!
Otherwise, how could such a good inspiration class be empty in the future and no one would come?
