To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 157 What a shame for Tenda!

5 month 21 day.

Pei Qian checked the report sent by Ye Zhizhou, and Shangyang Games was still in a state of steady loss, showing no improvement at all.

In the report, Ye Zhizhou introduced in detail the number of active players and the increase in the payment rate of the game. Obviously, he took these as performance successes and reported them to Mr. Pei.

Of course, all these achievements were completed under the guidance of Mr. Pei.

Pei Qian didn't pay attention to these at all, but looked directly at the column of total recharge.

Well, there is still no improvement!

Pei Qian had known this for a long time, and replied as usual: "Not bad, keep it up."

Ye Zhizhou continued to work full of blood.

Pei Qian is quite satisfied with the current state of Shangyang Games. It doesn't matter whether the reputation is good or bad anyway. As long as Pei Qian keeps an eye on it every day and the recharge amount of the game does not come up, then everything is easy to talk about.

Ye Zhizhou thought that everything was under Mr. Pei's control.

Of course, this is indeed the case, but what Mr. Pei knows is completely different from what Ye Zhizhou thinks Mr. Pei knows.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk."

There was a knock on the door.

Pei Qian looked up and saw that it was Huang Sibo who had arrived.

"Huh? A rare visitor."

It's been a long time since I saw each other, and most of Pei Qian's little resentment towards Huang Sibo has subsided.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Feihuang Studio didn't do anything to be sorry for yourself!

Although he earned nearly 200 million yuan, according to Pei Qian's sharing method, only about [-] yuan was actually allocated to Tengda. What's more, director Zhu Xiaoce also gave Pei Qian a large amount of remuneration, and gave Pei Qian a lot of money. Humble home appliances provide a good excuse.

So Pei Qian was not so angry a long time ago.

Huang Sibo was carrying a bag of fruit: "Come by and have a look, and say goodbye to Mr. Pei."

"Oh? Say goodbye?" Pei Qian was a little confused, "Where are you going?"

Huang Sibo smiled: "Didn't it be confirmed before that Feihuang Studio is going to shoot a documentary. Director Zhu Xiaoce and I, as well as some field affairs, have to go to the magic city. The entire filming work will be carried out there. It may take It's going to be next month."

"So, before I leave, come and have a look and tell you."

Go to Shanghai?

Pei Qian nodded: "Well, Modu is a good place."

He knew in his heart that going to Shanghai would cost a lot!

Even if the post-editing personnel are removed, there are still five or six people in Feihuang Studio. When these people go to Shanghai, the round-trip train tickets, accommodation fees, etc. are not cheap.

Pei Qian did not provide follow-up funds to Feihuang Studio. All of their filming expenses this time came from the profits of "President Pei's Daily Life". They were full of money, only a million or so, and part of the money was used to update photographic equipment. .

Short videos such as "Pei's Daily Life" can be shot with a DSLR or a vertical screen, and it doesn't matter if you make do; but for a documentary, you must use serious equipment to shoot, otherwise it will look very unprofessional.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian was not so repulsive, but became a little interested.

Although he was mentally prepared that most of Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce's new projects would make money, Pei Qian still had to ask.

After all, a small profit is also a profit, and a big profit is also a profit. There is still a big difference.

If you make a small profit, you can use other projects to make up for it; if you make a big profit, then Mr. Pei is gone.

"Well, remember to be careful on the road." Pei Qian pretended to be casual and asked, "What kind of documentary do you make, and you go to Shanghai specifically?"

Huang Sibo smiled a little embarrassedly: "President Pei, I'm telling you the truth, don't be offended. The subject matter we're shooting this time is very likely to lose everything."

Ok?

Lost in blood?

Boss Pei sat up straight in an instant.

If you talk to me about this, then I won't be sleepy!

"Come, drink tea." Pei Qian immediately poured a cup of tea and handed it to Huang Sibo, and the treatment changed instantly.

Huang Sibo didn't realize the change in President Pei's attitude. He sipped his tea and briefly described the recent work arrangements of Feihuang Studio.

"President Pei, director Zhu Xiaoce and I were deeply moved by your words, and decided to get out of the comfort zone of short videos and do something truly meaningful."

"Later, we also thought about a lot of directions, but we always felt that it was not so interesting."

"Some themes are what we are good at, and some themes are what we think can make money, but none of them are particularly urgent and cannot be done."

"Later, we finally found a subject that we felt we had to do, which was a documentary about e-sports players!"

Pei Qian became more interested: "Documents about e-sports players?"

Huang Sibo really didn't lie to him. With this subject, there is a high probability that he will lose everything!

What year is this? year 2010!

Today's e-sports players still sleep on curbs, drink tap water and eat instant noodles.

It's not like ten years later, all the red wine young models Ferrari, with an annual salary of tens of millions.

The hot money of capital has not yet entered, and games are still regarded as a scourge in society. For those who play games, whether you play professionally or simply for entertainment and relaxation, in the eyes of most people, there is no difference at all, and they are all described in four words. To describe it, it is "not doing business properly".

Now you can shoot documentaries for e-sports players, and you can find suitable materials, but how do you monetize them?

"Boss Pei's Daily" was able to make money because the website Ellie Island just happened to be looking for some high-quality video content, so it signed a special sharing agreement.

Short videos can be continuously updated, continue to attract traffic to the website, and are broadcast exclusively on the entire network. The IP and word-of-mouth accumulated in the three seasons are places where you can negotiate prices with video websites.

But documentaries are different.

First, not necessarily how many people pay attention.

Second, it is impossible to continuously update and continuously attract traffic to the website. Naturally, it is impossible to sign an exclusive broadcast or sharing agreement with the website.

Third, there is no way to place advertisements, and there is no way to make meals.

Documentaries are very rigorous, because they are true, so they are meaningful.You can't be interviewing players here, and in the middle of the interview, an advertisement is suddenly inserted: "I want to win, I'm crazy"?

It can be said that most documentaries are not profitable, except for a few.

For example, "Bite of the Tongue".

When Pei Qian first heard that Huang Sibo and the others were going to make a documentary, he was really worried that they would make "Bite of the Tongue", but now it's confirmed, it's not.

It's reasonable to think about it, Zhu Xiaoce is indeed very talented, but he is not a time traveler.

Make a blockbuster, that is powerful;

Making a lot of hits in a row is a hit.

When Pei Qian heard this, he felt more at ease.

Let’s not talk about how to shoot this documentary, as long as the investment is large and the return is small, it is a good project.

Pei Qian's face became warmer in an instant: "I've lost all my money? That's nothing to worry about. Feihuang Studio has me to take care of you, so let go of your hands and feet!"

"What is money, we can't live so vulgar!"

Huang Sibo was drinking tea with a smile on his face: "Sure enough, I knew Mr. Pei would definitely support us!"

"Pei, don't worry, this time we are also very aware of the risks of this project, so we plan to make a green leather car to go to Shanghai, and save as much as possible on accommodation and meals..."

Before Huang Sibo finished speaking, Pei Qian's face collapsed instantly.

"What do you mean?"

Huang Sibo was taken aback for a moment, he rarely saw Mr. Pei get angry, and stammered, "No, it's not interesting, just to control the cost..."

Pei Qian looked like he hated iron but not steel: "Control costs? Huang Sibo, figure out your identity!"

Huang Sibo was startled, shaking the teacup in his hand.

It's rare to see President Pei get so angry. What did I say wrong?

Pei Qian said solemnly: "Feihuang Studio is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tengda. You, as well as all the employees of Feihuang Studio, are all Tengda employees! You let them take the green leather car and still stay and eat Save money, what if something goes wrong?"

"Even if they are in good health and don't suffer from eating problems, they will be tired all the way, can't eat well and sleep well, which will affect their work efficiency. ?”

Huang Sibo felt his hands tremble a little: "Forget it...for me."

"Oh, no, no, no..." Huang Sibo found himself surrounded by Mr. Pei, "Mr. Pei, don't worry, I'm just saving costs, and I'm not a black-hearted contractor. The health of the employees can definitely be guaranteed... "

Pei Qian looked like he hated iron for being weak: "Tengda's face was completely lost by you! How did I teach by example?"

Huang Sibo was speechless.

Pei Qian said solemnly: "Listen to me, time is money when flying back and forth, understand? Over there, board and lodging will be provided according to the standard of normal business travel. If you don't know the specific standards, ask Assistant Xin."

"When you arrive in Shanghai, you don't have to panic. If you can't finish the filming, you can postpone it. Let's take your time. As long as it can be filmed before June 6, that's fine."

"The postponement is nothing more than spending more on accommodation, how much can I spend? Not enough money, ask me for it, what a big deal."

"Remember, Tengda is behind Feihuang Studio, if you have any difficulties, just ask!"

Huang Sibo nodded quickly: "Yes, Mr. Pei, I'm all at your command."

Only then did Pei Qian calm down, nodded, and said earnestly: "You are also an old employee of Tengda, don't let me worry about such trivial matters."

"Are you planning to go to Shanghai in a green leather car? We, Tengda, don't have such an embarrassing employee like you!"

Huang Sibo's face was a little red, and he was very ashamed: "Yes, what Mr. Pei said is that Feihuang Studio will definitely follow Tengda's footsteps in the future, and everything will be according to your standards."

Only then did Pei Qian nodded in satisfaction: "Well, that's right. Remember, if you have any difficulties, you must report to me as soon as possible!"

After repeated exhortations, Pei Qian was satisfied.

Huang Sibo is a good project that can lose a lot of money, and he is still here to control the cost for me!

Repeated orders and repeated applications, there are still people who are so stingy, and they are old employees of Tengda!

This made Boss Pei feel very tired.
