Pei Qian held his forehead and fell silent.
He had to say that there were experts among the netizens.
They actually analyzed the cause and effect of this matter so clearly. They were even clearer than Pei Qian, the hidden boss behind Morning Dew Gaming Platform.
However …
That was not a good thing!
Morning Dew Gaming Platform had mastered the art of slaying dragons?
How was this slaying dragons? They were obviously trying to kill me!
Of course, Pei Qian knew very well what this netizen meant. When he said 'dragon-slaying', he meant that the mechanism of Morning Dew Gaming Platform had formed a dimensional reduction attack on other gaming platforms. It was a magical technique that belonged to a completely different dimension. It was extremely powerful and difficult to imitate. That was why it was called 'dragon-slaying'.
As long as he obtained a perfect opportunity, such as a super popular game, the Dragon Slaying Technique would have a place to be used.
However, that was the logic. No matter how Pei Qian looked at it, he felt that the Dragon Slaying Saber was ready to slash at him at any moment.
"What a scam!
I was hoping for this appraiser system to make a comeback. In the end, I'm already dead before it can be officially implemented? "
Pei Qian did not give up. He thought that he was about to make a comeback after being pressed under the five-finger mountain. However, after struggling for a long time, he realized that he had only turned over.
What's more, he had turned from lying down to being crushed to death …
However, he could not think of a good solution for the time being.
Many things were already out of control when he handed over many rights to the players.
"Since I can't think of a good solution for now, don't act rashly. Let's wait and see."
"After all, the popularity of the gaming platform will not happen overnight. I should still have time to think carefully."
Pei Qian silently closed the relevant webpage and fell into deep thought again.
…
…
September 26th, Wednesday …
Pei Qian received a call from his good brother, Eric, not long after he woke up.
"Why are you calling me so early in the morning? Can't you let me rest well?"
Pei Qian looked at his watch. It was only nine in the morning. He had just woken up and had not had time to brush his teeth.
However, since it was a call from his good brother, he had to pick it up immediately.
"Boss Pei, er …"
Eric was silent for a moment after greeting Pei Qian on the other end of the line. He was a little hesitant.
Pei Qian could not help but feel nervous. He quickly asked, "What's wrong? Your superiors didn't agree? "
Eric paused for a moment and explained, "After I reported it, the higher-ups of the headquarters held an emergency meeting to discuss it. Hmm … they accepted most of the conditions."
Obviously, the upper echelons of Dayak Corporation did not expect Boss Pei to accept all of these conditions and felt a little guilty.
Hurry up and hold a meeting to discuss and see if there is any trap behind this.
Pei Qian continued to ask, "What was the outcome of the discussion? What are the conditions that cannot be accepted? "
He was a little puzzled. This was obviously an unfair treaty. GOG was required to fulfill a long list of obligations, but IOI was basically required to fulfill none.
What else could the higher-ups of Dayak Corporation not accept?
Eric explained, "To be precise, I want to add another condition to the original condition."
"Both sides will jointly fund a new activity."
"The name of this activity is' Gods Fantasy, Together at the Peak '— of course, this name was suggested by President Zhao Xuming."
"The content of the event is to set a popularity target for the two games. The popularity mainly refers to the number of active players and the number of people online. When the two games achieve their respective goals, the players will be able to receive generous rewards. "
"Of course, this physical reward is provided by both of our companies …"
Eric's voice became softer and softer. Even he felt a little lacking in confidence.
It was indeed a little inhumane to ask for sky-high prices time and time again.
However, he had no choice. He could not be soft-hearted in business matters. What's more, the other party was the cunning Boss Pei. He could not be compassionate.
Therefore, he gave a serious introduction to the details of the event.
Pei Qian nodded. "Eh? This is a pretty good name. Boss Zhao, not bad. "
He thought about it seriously for a moment and quickly understood the intention of the event.
The name of the event 'Gods Fantasy, Together at the Peak' was quite good. He could not tell that Zhao Xuming was talented in naming things.
However, on further thought, Zhao Xuming was the person-in-charge of IOI in Long Yu Corporation after all. This was his old profession. It was not surprising that he came up with a beautiful name.
Why did he come up with such a name?
That was because GOG's full name was "Glory
The full name of IOI is "Imagine", which means "Glory of the Gods" or "Glory of the Gods.
IOI's full name was "Imagine Infinity", which was also "Endless Fantasy".
As for why the names of these two games were so similar, that was because Pei Qian had followed this format when he named GOG.
The event this time would use half of both games to form "Legend of the Gods".
With the addition of the words "Together at the Peak", it implied that the two games were working hand in hand, working together to make a lot of money.
Of course, this was all for the gamers to see on the surface. Even if they wanted to beat each other up in private, they had to keep up appearances.
That was because at the end of the day, they hoped to draw traffic from GOG to IOI. Thus, they had to show an attitude of 'we're good brothers'. If they deliberately emphasized the competitive relationship between the two parties, it would definitely cause GOG players to feel disgusted. At that time, they would rather not receive any rewards than play IOI. Wouldn't that be very awkward?
As for the specific content of the event, it could be seen as even more intense than the original content.
This event was jointly funded by both parties and provided physical rewards. The way to obtain these rewards was for the two games to reach their respective popularity targets.
However, the problem was that GOG was popular, and IOI was not.
In order to make IOI's popularity reach the requirements of receiving rewards, gamers had to run to IOI, play more games, and top up more money.
In fact, they still had to think of ways to draw GOG players to IOI.
While Pei Qian was seriously thinking about the specific details of this plan, Eric was also thinking about his own matters. There was a moment of silence on the phone.
Eric was thinking about the thoughts of the higher-ups.
There were many GOG players and few IOI players. What's more, players were currently losing from IOI to GOG. That was a fait accompli.
Organizing such an event would definitely risk the loss of IOI players.
However, there were naturally opportunities with risks.
It might be more difficult to convert GOG players to IOI, but it was impossible to draw a group of players over and not leave a single one, right?
Even if only a small number of players stayed, wouldn't that be new blood?
There would always be people who were tired of playing GOG and wanted a change of taste.
Why would IOI struggle if they thought that not a single GOG player could stay? They might as well give up resisting and surrender.
The higher-ups of Dayak Corporation still felt that IOI had the strength to fight. Otherwise, they would have sold it a long time ago.
This confidence made them feel that IOI players would not be lost in large numbers because of such an event.
What's more, during this event, IOI's various data, be it activity, popularity, or top-up data, would definitely be very good. There would be real economic benefits.
The main problem that the higher-ups of Dayak Corporation were thinking about now was not to fight to the death with GOG. That would hinder them from earning money.
They wanted to take advantage of IOI's current state to earn more money and recover as much as possible.
This joint event was actually a good opportunity. After all, there was a data goal that could only be achieved by topping up in IOI.
It was normal to take some risks in the face of such benefits.
What's more, IOI had put on two very sneakily faces: in order to prevent the loss of players in the in-game activities, IOI would not give players who ran to play GOG too good of a reward. However, in this' Gods Fantasy, Reach the Peak Together 'event outside the game, IOI would bear half of the rewards.
The latter was mainly to shut the players' mouths so that they would not be at a moral disadvantage. The former was to reduce their losses as much as possible.
Eric felt very nervous as he thought about the stakes.
He did not know if such a choice was really appropriate.
However, it was a good thing that he was just a mouthpiece now. He did not need to worry about such things or confront Boss Pei head-on.
In any case, he could not shift the blame no matter what.
After both of them thought about it for a while, Pei Qian said, "Alright, I agree to this condition.
"Let's create some popularity together. It's a win-win cooperation," Pei Qian said very sincerely.
Pei Qian sounded very sincere. In a sense, his actions were indeed 'win-win'.
GOG made less money, IOI made more money, and lasted longer. Wasn't that a win-win cooperation?
Eric sniggered. "Of course."
He said 'of course', but in fact, he did not believe a single punctuation mark in his heart.
Boss Pei never spoke the truth. If anyone believed him, they would have to count the money for him if they were sold!
In fact, Eric had probably guessed a little of Boss Pei's intentions after thinking hard for a long time.
Perhaps he wanted to poach a portion of players from IOI through this event?
However, this matter was like a competition between two experts. Your internal energy might be stronger, but you can only use 30% of your strength. I can use 100% of my strength. Then, I don't know what the final outcome will be.
After hanging up, Eric told himself again that he was just a mouthpiece. He would not be blamed if anything happened. He was not in his position and did not care about politics, so he should not get involved.
Zhao Xuming stood at the side and asked, "So … Boss Pei agreed?"
Eric nodded. "Yes, we can start preparing for the relevant activities."
"That's right, Boss Pei also praised you. He said that you thought of a good name for the event."
Zhao Xuming's eyes lit up. "Eh? Is that so? It's my honor to receive a compliment from Boss Pei! "
Eric teased, "Actually, given Boss Pei's admiration for you, Boss Zhao, you might be able to get an official position when IOI really fails."
Zhao Xuming quickly waved his hand. "You can't say that! I'm a loyal official of Long Yu Corporation! Why would I join my old enemy, Boss Pei? That's impossible! "
"I'll go and prepare for the event now."
Zhao Xuming immediately turned around and left the office.
