"Brother Bao!"
"Boss Xiao, hello, hello!"
Bao Xu and Xiao Peng shook hands warmly, feeling like a victorious reunion.
Bao Xu's eyes were instantly attracted by the layout of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0.
Was this … heaven?
Whether it was the decoration, tables, chairs, or furnishings, everything in this internet cafe was simply made for esports!
For a moment, Bao Xu almost wanted to apply to Boss Pei for a transfer.
"This is Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0? It's great! "Bao Xu was full of praise for the new version of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe.
Xiao Peng sighed softly. "I thought it was perfect in all aspects, but …
"Brother Bao, to be honest, people from Shang Yang Games had already looked for me last Friday …"
In a few words, he explained his confusion.
To put it bluntly, all the configurations of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 were arranged after he predicted that Boss Pei would push GOG and give up IOI.
The problem now was not whether to push GOG or IOI, but not to stand on the wrong side.
"Brother Bao, I know you've worked with Boss Pei longer than Boss Zhang. Help me analyze what Boss Pei is thinking. Why did IOI's people come on Friday, but you're three days late? "
Bao Xu had basically figured out the situation after Xiao Peng's confession.
Obviously, the advantage was still on GOG's side, but the key was to see how to use it.
Xiao Peng was conflicted because IOI came to him first, giving him the illusion that 'Boss Pei was supporting IOI behind the scenes'.
The most important thing now was to break this illusion!
Bao Xu pondered for a moment and said, "First of all, I want to correct one thing. We don't work on weekends, so we're only one day behind Shang Yang Games.
"However, your concerns are actually very reasonable. IOI took action first because of Boss Pei's instructions."
Xiao Peng did not expect Bao Xu to open like this. He was stunned for a moment. "Then …"
Bao Xu smiled slightly. "Wait for me to finish.
"Boss Pei's attitude towards GOG and IOI has never changed. It's a tactic of raising venomous insects. That's because Boss Pei firmly believes that competition is everywhere. Flowers in a greenhouse will not amount to much. Only those who can laugh to the end in cruel competition can laugh the best. "
"Now that IOI has been beaten by GOG to the point where it can't fight back, Boss Pei wants to tilt his resources slightly to give them a breather. That's a very normal and reasonable move.
Xiao Peng nodded.
Although Bao Xu's words didn't answer his question, such an open and honest exchange made him trust Bao Xu a little more.
If Bao Xu denied it right from the start and said that Boss Pei was definitely on GOG's side, it would seem like he had too many tricks up his sleeve and was not real enough.
Bao Xu continued, "However, think about it carefully. What is the greatest help Boss Pei can give to a department?"
"Is it money?"
"Of course not!"
"In terms of money, Boss Pei treats everyone equally most of the time. Boss Pei has also been throwing money into the loss-making departments.
"Boss Pei's greatest help to a department is a few words of guidance and a plan for the future!
"Which is in Boss Pei's plan, GOG or IOI? That goes without saying, right?"
Xiao Peng's eyes widened slightly, revealing a look of realization.
"I see! I'm just blinded by the situation. "
"Actually, I realized this before. The DGE Esports Club is all about GOG, and there is no IOI at all. That means that Boss Pei will definitely leave a place for GOG in his future plan!
"However, when the people from Shang Yang Games came, they swore that they got more resources from Boss Pei and obtained his support. They said it as if it was true …
"That's why I started to doubt my own judgment."
Bao Xu sniggered. "It's inevitable to use words in business competition. That's normal. All's fair in war.
"What's more, strictly speaking, they didn't lie. It's normal for Boss Pei to tilt a little more resources to them because of the tactic of raising venomous insects.
"However, that doesn't represent Boss Pei's true thoughts. It doesn't mean that Boss Pei wants to give up on GOG and fully promote IOI. The people from Shang Yang Games are just using a chicken feather as an arrow to deliberately exaggerate Boss Pei's intentions.
Xiao Peng nodded, his tone much firmer. "I understand! If that's the case, everything will match up! "
"Then … what should Fish-Catching Internet Cafe do now?"
Bao Xu thought for a moment. "Did you ask Min Jingchao to make a special small program before? Use the data from GOG to control the computer lights? "
Xiao Peng nodded. "That's right. It was specially prepared for Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0.
"That's good," Bao Xu said.
"Since Boss Pei wants to implement the tactic of raising venomous insects, it would be completely one-sided. It would not be suitable for IOI to die instantly and lose its chance to struggle.
"I think we can do this: let GOG and IOI compete freely in Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 1.0 and 2.0. Let IOI burn money if they want to, and we will try our best to keep up.
"In Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0, GOG would be the main focus.
"There's also a more far-fetched but passable reason: we can't make the mainframe's lights for nothing.
"This way, it would not hurt our relationship and would also be in line with Boss Pei's future plans."
Xiao Peng nodded. "Alright, I understand!"
…
At Tengda Games …
Min Jingchao, who was waiting anxiously, received a message from Bao Xu.
"It's done. Xiao Peng will send you the information about Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 later. Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 will officially open in two days and only give GOG discounts. Go talk to those internet cafe chains that are not firm. As for those who are more stubborn … send them the video of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 opening. Don't be afraid that they won't change their minds! "
Min Jingchao was overjoyed. "Brother Bao, when are you coming back?"
Bao Xu: "Uh … in the afternoon. I'm going to stay here to continue discussing business with Xiao Peng."
Min Jingchao: "?"
However, it did not matter on second thought. Bao Xu's task had been completed and he had successfully won the support of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe.
Although Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 1.0 and 2.0 were still GOG and IOI coexisting, the latest Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 was built into a living esports museum. This small shop was completely leaning towards GOG, and many articles could be made on this point.
It might only be a shop, but it had a very clear symbolic meaning.
For example, Min Jingchao could use this case to tell the bosses of other internet cafe chains: within Tengda, GOG was part of the future esports ecosystem, and IOI was not. IOI's current momentum was just to put pressure on GOG as a way to cultivate players and expand the boundaries of this type of game …
Min Jingchao believed that even if GOG gave less benefits than IOI, these arguments would definitely bring long-term benefits into the scope of everyone's consideration.
For example, to those UP Masters, they were both sponsored partnerships. IOI gave more money, but it was not an overwhelming advantage. On the other hand, the popularity that GOG videos brought to oneself might bring more profits in the future.
In the long run, it was obviously more cost-effective to stand on the boat of GOG.
As for the diehards who really did not believe it …
Once Fish-Catching Internet Cafe 3.0 opened for business, they would send videos of everyone playing GOG to the diehards. They would definitely change their minds!
…
…
June 14th, Tuesday …
Pei Qian arrived at Deposit Fitness past nine in the morning.
That was because he had just received news from the Manage Loss Trainee that the application requested by the gym had been developed by Otto Technologies!
After checking the development time, Pei Qian immediately decided to go there personally.
The timing did not seem right!
Otto Technologies had a department in charge of software development, and their development capabilities were much stronger than ordinary outsourcing teams. Yet, such a simple appointment and registration software had been developed for nearly two months?
Did the developers of Otto Technologies think that the software was useless and were deliberately delaying time, or was there another possibility?
Pei Qian felt that the former was not very likely.
If they felt that the software was useless, shouldn't they hurry up and finish it and continue doing other things? There was no reason to continue delaying time no matter how he thought about it.
If it was the latter … then it would be a huge hidden danger!
Pei Qian pushed the door open and entered the Deposit Fitness.
Then, he was stunned.
Chang You actually came in person?
He saw Chang You sitting on the sofa in the rest area, holding an Otto E1 phone and gesturing to Guo Licheng.
The E1 phone gestured to Guo Licheng, as if it was explaining.
Both of them quickly stood up when they saw Boss Pei.
"Boss Pei, why are you here?" Guo Licheng was a little surprised.
Chang You did not expect to meet Boss Pei here and nodded in greeting.
Pei Qian tried his best to put on a calm expression. "Nothing much, I just had a whim and came to take a look. Why is Boss Chang here? "
Chang You smiled. "Boss Pei, didn't you ask us to develop the fitness software for Deposit Fitness previously? It has been completed! "
Pei Qian was a little surprised. "Boss Chang, you're so busy with work. Why did you come here personally?"
Chang You waved his hand. "No matter how busy I am, I'm not as busy as you, Boss Pei. You often come to Deposit Fitness to inspect. It's only right for me to make a trip myself and explain the software to Boss Guo.
"We're all brother departments. We should help each other."
Pei Qian had nothing to say. He could only sit on the empty sofa next to him.
He first glanced at the situation in the gym.
There didn't seem to be anyone. It should be safe.
Pei Qian relaxed slightly and looked at Chang You. "So, the software is completed?"
Chang You nodded. "It's done! Boss Pei, please take a look. "
Pei Qian reached out to take the cell phone while Chang You explained.
"Boss Pei, please take a look. This is the most basic curriculum arrangement, training appointment, and so on.
"This is the smart training plan arrangement. It can develop training plans based on the user's height, weight, and physique data detected in the gym for the coaches' reference.
"This is the user zone. You can upload training, diet knowledge, or small tips here. You can also simply share the changes that fitness life has brought to you …
"Also …"
At first, Pei Qian did not think much of it because the first few introductions were the basic functions that Guo Licheng had requested.
However, the more he read, the more ridiculous it became!
The more Pei Qian listened, the more confused he became. More and more question marks appeared on his head.
Smart training plan arrangement?
User zone?
Check-in reminder?
Basic movement explanation teaching?
This …
What was all this?!
Pei Qian looked at Guo Licheng, confused. "These are all your requests?"
Could it be that you, the thick-browed, big-eyed kid's juice, had betrayed me?
