"Danian, what's the highest number of concurrent players in our game?"
"200,000."
"Not bad, it's a new record."
Sheng Da Chen Tianqiao called CEO Chen Danian into his office. While he was praising the game, he asked, "What's going on with Journey to the West? How did the number of people online at the same time exceed 100,000?"
"This …"
Chen Danian was having a headache.
Although Journey to the West was different from Legend of Mir, they were both MMOs and competitors.
It was fine that Journey to the West didn't have many players, but now, 100,000 players could not be underestimated.
Before this, Legend of Mir only had 150,000 players.
More importantly, Journey to the West only had a few thousand players online at the same time.
After one month, it had increased to 100,000.
On the other hand, Legend of Mir only had 200,000 players online at the same time, but before this, they had 150,000 players online at the same time.
Based on this calculation, Legend of Mir's growth was 50,000 less than Journey to the West.
"Journey to the West is backed by NetEase. With NetEase as a portal for promotion, Journey to the West has increased by leaps and bounds."
Chen Danian thought for a while and said.
"NetEase does have a lot of traffic as a portal, but the conversion rate of portal traffic to game players has never been high. It's not like we haven't advertised on portals before, but the results weren't good. NetEase also promoted Journey to the West on a large scale before, but Journey to the West didn't take off. But this month, Journey to the West suddenly exploded. Danian, didn't you find out the reason? "
"This can only be attributed to Zhou Xingchi's Journey to the West. No one knew that Journey to the West, which was released five or six years ago, would suddenly become popular. NetEase's Journey to the West also benefited from Zhou Xingchi's Journey to the West. "
"I don't think so."
Chen Tianqiao shook his head. "Journey to the West didn't become popular earlier or later, but it just happened to become popular now. It's hard to say if there's someone behind this."
"There's someone behind this."
Chen Danian said directly, "It's a website called 5173.com."
"Is it the website that sells equipment?"
"Yes, at first, they did focus on trading virtual items. But later, they started to develop into a portal for games. Now, their main business is to cooperate with major gaming companies to promote and package their games. "
"Not bad, this game company's positioning is very accurate."
Chen Tianqiao praised, "Let me take a look."
Chen Tianqiao entered the 5173 website on his computer and browsed through it casually. Even without checking the IP flow, Chen Tianqiao said, "Impressive. This website's game strategy is more professional than our own website's strategy."
"Therefore, many players will go to the 5173 network."
"Danian, I'm very curious. Since you know, why didn't you cooperate with this website?"
Chen Danian was Chen Tianqiao's younger brother. Chen Tianqiao recognized his younger brother's ability.
"Speaking of which, it was my mistake."
At this point, Chen Danian sighed. "In the beginning, 5173 approached us, saying that they could help us promote Legend of Mir. It's just that they directly offered a price of one million at that time. I saw that they were just a start-up website and didn't show any great promotion ability, so I rejected them. "
"And then?"
"Later, they cooperated with Journey to the West. After two or three rounds of promotion, they promoted Journey to the West to about 30,000 concurrent online users. I took action and prepared to cooperate with them. But guess what? "
"What?"
"The person in charge of this website actually raised the price from one million to two million."
"Hahaha …"
Chen Tianqiao laughed. "So you haven't contacted them recently?"
"Sort of."
"Danian, when did you become so stingy?"
Chen Tianqiao shook his head. "Their promotion business is strong. Naturally, they have the courage to raise the price."
"But it's not right to raise the price directly."
"Even if it's not right, think about it. As long as you spend two million, you can increase your concurrent online users by 100,000. Are you willing?"
"This …"
Chen Danian stopped talking.
Was there a need to say this?
Of course, he was willing.
With 100,000 concurrent online users, their annual income could reach hundreds of millions.
Even after deducting the cost, they could still make more than 200 million.
Two million for 200 million. It was simply too worth it.
Of course, due to the base number, 5173 couldn't increase Legend of Mir by 100,000.
Even if it increased by 50,000.
No, even an increase of 30,000 or 20,000 was a profit.
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Contact 5173 again."
"Okay."
Chen Danian nodded.
In fact, even if Chen Tianqiao didn't say anything, he was prepared to contact 5173 again.
As for why he didn't take action before, he was just a little angry.
But now, what was there to be angry about? They were indeed good at fighting, and he had a favor to ask of them.
If he cooperated, it would only be beneficial to him.
…
"Boss Chen, these are the newly recruited employees."
"Hello, Boss Chen."
"Everyone has worked hard. If there's anything you're not used to, tell Manager Zhang."
"It's not hard, it's not hard."
"Xie Zhang, bring everyone to familiarize themselves with the company's business."
"Yes."
After Chen Yu finished giving instructions, he entered the office with Zhang Jianming.
"How are you? Have you been okay these past few days?"
"Yes, it's okay. The newly recruited students are considered to be better students in our school. They are also smart."
"Look at you. Are you afraid that Director Li will give you some ugly people?"
"Haha, I'm thinking for the company."
"Let's not talk about this. How are things at Shengda?"
Chen Yu wasn't stupid.
The newly recruited employees didn't need to be particularly skilled, and he didn't expect them to do anything big. Anyway, it was a favor. As long as the students sent by Director Li knew how to use computers, Chen Yu would accept them.
There was nothing much to be said about this kind of ordinary employee who would be recruited regardless of who it was.
"Hey, I was just about to talk to you about this."
At the mention of Shengda, Zhang Jianming was also excited. "You guessed right. Shengda really contacted us."
"What did they say?"
"They agreed to cooperate at the previous price."
"Oh, is that so?"
Chen Yu nodded. "I knew they would come."
"Should we send them a fax later … Ah, Chen Yu, what are you thinking? Don't tell me you want to raise the price again."
"Uh …"
Chen Yu was a little embarrassed.
Just now, he really wanted to raise the price.
But when he saw Zhang Jianming's expression, Chen Yu gave up. "Forget it. Two million it is. Don't offend Shengda. We might have to cooperate in the future."
"Yes, I think so too. Also, two million is a lot."
If he added the two million from NetEase.
In a short period of time, he had earned four million. This was faster than robbing a bank.
"Okay, I'll write the contract and fax it to Shengda."
Currently, Chen Yu signed the contract by fax.
Of course, if he wanted to be strict, it would be more effective to sign the contract in person.
But for speed, Chen Yu decided to use the fax.
Although signing by fax was a little troublesome, as long as both parties fulfilled the contract, there wouldn't be too much of a problem.
"Okay."
"Oh right, has Director Li been here before?"
"No."
The company was getting bigger and bigger, and the tax issues that came with it were also a big expense.
It would be best if he could get some tax benefits.
"Okay, if he comes, let me know immediately."
Just as they were talking, Chen Yu's phone rang.
Speak of the devil.
