Losing Money to Be a Tycoon - Chapter 1206
Chapter 1206: The Split Downloads Of Eternal Reincarnation!
Pei Qian was a little surprised and pleasantly surprised to hear Meng Chang’s straightforward answer.
Eh, this young man is very confident!
Meng Chang did not look blindly confident but confident with something in mind.
Pei Qian asked, “Do you have a rough plan?”
Meng Chang nodded. “Yes, I’ve been thinking about it for the past few days. I’ve made some progress now. I’ll go to the games department in a while and discuss with the chief designer of the project. I need their cooperation.”
Pei Qian nodded in satisfaction.
Alright, Meng Chang was becoming more and more reliable!
Previously, he had been passively accepting missions and doing publicity plans according to fate. Whether they could get the commission at the end of the month depended on fate.
Now, he had taken the initiative to predict missions and plan the publicity plan in advance. He would get a commission based on his own skills at the end of the month.
Not bad, this fighting spirit with fate has my style.
He had not nurtured him for nothing!
“Alright, I won’t ask about the specific plan for now. You can do whatever you want.”
“The person-in-charge of the games department has just been changed. However, you don’t have to worry. Just say what you have to say. After all, I’ve already sent a notice previously to ask the various departments to cooperate with your publicity plan unconditionally.”
Meng Chang nodded. “Thank you, Boss Pei.”
“I’ll get back to work, then.”
Pei Qian nodded. “Okay, go ahead. If you encounter any problems, feel free to look for me.”
“By the way, don’t forget what I told you to do.”
Meng Chang quickly nodded. “It’s about Young Master Tian, right? I definitely won’t forget.”
Pei Qian felt a little better after sending Meng Chang off.
His nurturing of Meng Chang was finally successful.
Even though something had happened to Dawn Games platform, indicating that there were still some loopholes and problems with Meng Chang’s reverse publicity method, it was only a coincidence after all. What’s more, Meng Chang had room to grow.
If Meng Chang continued to be in charge of a few projects and trained, the chances of such failures would definitely decrease!
Pei Qian did not want to dwell on this problem for the time being. Instead, he thought about how to salvage the situation on Dawn Games platform.
Yes, he would probably waste a lot of brain cells again.
…
Meng Chang went straight to Tengda Games department upstairs after leaving Boss Pei’s office.
Meng Chang began to think about Boss Pei’s instructions about “Young Master Tian” when he waited for the elevator.
“Boss Pei is right. I was indeed not very particular about the last step of the Pei family’s publicity method.”
“It’s mainly because the risk this time is huge. It’s actually not safe.”
“Young Master Tian is a new account after all. What’s more, this persona has not been truly established. It’s too thin.”
“If Teacher Qiao had not shared it, this video might have been buried directly.”
“In order to ensure stability in the future, I have to create the Young Master Tian account that is on the same level as ‘Teacher Qiao’. It has to have a unique style, recognizable and have a group of fixed fans.”
“Hmm… this is a long term task, but I cannot be lazy.”
Meng Chang reflected on Boss Pei’s words and increasingly felt that there were hidden dangers behind this success.
The exposure of the new account was still too little. If Teacher Qiao had not reposted it, Young Master Tian’s video would probably have been buried.
Even with Teacher Qiao’s sharing, there was still a chance that this video would be buried.
Thus, if he wanted to be able to freely and 100% steadily ignite the popularity that he had buried previously, he had to create an account that was influential enough. Not only did he have to continuously export high-quality content, but he also had to have a specific character, character, and expertise in domains. While maintaining a certain level of style, he had to be more down-to-earth.
“Sigh, the Pei Family’s publicity method is indeed profound. I actually thought that I had already grasped 70 to 80%. Now, it looks like I was blindly confident.”
“Indeed, as Boss Pei said, I have to think about what kind of person Young Master Tian is and dig deeper.”
“What’s more, this matter is very urgent. I cannot delay it. After all, the next time I use Young Master Tian’s account to post a video, I might not be as lucky as this time.”
Meng Chang came to Tengda Games as he thought.
He knew Hu Xianbin and Min Jingchao, but Hu Xianbin was obviously not around.
Everyone knew that Hu Xianbin had gone on a holiday.
Thus, Meng Chang found Min Jingchao and asked who the new chief designer of Eternal Reincarnation was.
Min Jingchao pointed. “That’s the original author of the novel, Yu Fei.”
Original novel author?
Meng Chang might have been in Tengda for a period of time and seen all sorts of strange operations, but he was still amazed by the operation of promoting a novel author directly to the chief designer.
However, Meng Chang quickly regained his composure and came to Yu Fei.
At that moment, Yu Fei was happily waiting for the shift to end.
Based on his calculations, Hu Xianbin should be back soon after traveling for a month.
“Li Yada is a liar. Why would she need to take over for two months? It’s obviously a month.”
“Wouldn’t I be able to escape once Hu Xianbin returns?”
Yu Fei had been on tenterhooks after he became the chief designer.
Was the chief designer of Tengda Games a joke?
At first, he was worried that he would not be able to do anything at all. He would be so busy every day. He did not expect things to go much smoother than he had imagined.
Hu Xianbin had finished his work before he left. Boss Pei had also finalized the framework for the gameplay. The follow-up work would only be to change the plot direction, process route, and details of the various monsters in the game even if it had to be modified.
These were not difficult to deal with. After all, he knew the plot too well.
What’s more, he only needed to make the decision. The other designers would naturally do the work well. He did not have to do it himself.
In fact, Yu Fei had the illusion that the person-in-charge of Tengda was so easy to fill.
Of course, he woke up very quickly. That was only because Hu Xianbin and Boss Pei had designed the game in advance. He was only here to take over temporarily. If he wanted to design from scratch, that would not do.
To Yu Fei, it was a pleasant surprise that nothing went wrong after taking over the shift for nearly a month. He would wait for Hu Xianbin to return and finish the handover before returning to write novels happily.
He was daydreaming when he looked up and saw Meng Chang.
“Yu Fei? Hello, I’m Meng Chang from the advertising department. I want to discuss the publicity arrangements for Eternal Reincarnation with you. Some details of the plan need the game department to cooperate.”
Yu Fei nodded and then shook his head.
“Ah, cooperate. Of course, cooperate.”
“However… I’m only here to replace him temporarily. I have to hand over my work in two days. Why don’t you wait for a while? When Hu Xianbin returns in a few days, we can talk to him directly?”
Yu Fei’s idea was to save Meng Chang some trouble.
Even if he could finalize the plan now, wouldn’t Hu Xianbin have to communicate again when he returned? It would be a waste to increase the communication cost for no reason.
Meng Chang’s expression was serious. “No, this is very urgent. I’ve arranged the timing for each segment of the publicity plan. We can’t wait.”
Yu Fei pondered for a moment and nodded. “Alright, I’ll listen to the rough plan first. I’ll talk to Hu Xianbin later.”
Both of them arrived at the conference room.
He might have only been the temporary person-in-charge for a month but he still knew a lot of basic knowledge as the person-in-charge of Tengda.
Min Jingchao had taught him everything.
As the person-in-charge, he had a few principles. For example, he had to do his best to cooperate with the requests of the other departments. Boss Pei’s orders were to be carried out seriously and not ask too many questions. However, he had to guess the true intentions behind it and so on.
Therefore, Yu Fei did not think much about it after Meng Chang proposed to formulate a publicity plan for Eternal Reincarnation. He planned to cooperate fully and hand all the work in this aspect to Meng Chang.
He could hand it over when Hu Xianbin returned.
Thus, this was just a formality.
Meng Chang was already prepared. He conducted a large number of meticulous research on Repent and be Saved and Eternal Reincarnation and used the Pei Family’s publicity method to organize everything. He could be said to be very confident.
However, he still had to cooperate with Fei Huang Workspace during the process.
Meng Chang said, “As far as I know, the main changes to Eternal Reincarnation as Repent and be Saved’s downloadable content are in the combat system, right?”
“Based on the current progress, how far have the scenes, monsters, and combat system been?”
Yu Fei answered truthfully. “These two pieces are in sync and are handled by different designers. Overall, the scenes and monsters are modified faster. After all, they are using existing resources.”
“The progress of the combat system is not bad. At the moment, the first version of the design has been completed. However, some details still need to be polished.”
“According to normal progress, the modifications to the scene and the monsters before the middle of the month can be completed. The combat system can also be 80% completed. It can be played, but the experience is not that smooth. It should be completed before the end of the month.”
Meng Chang nodded. This was in line with his plan.
“My publicity plan has certain requirements for the sales rules of this downloadable content. Simply put, it requires… splitting downloads.”
Yu Fei was stunned. “Split the downloads?”
Yu Fei might be a novel author but he was a gamer at the same time. He still had some basic knowledge.
How could the game’s downloadable content be split?
Didn’t they all update at once?
Even the updates of mobile games were completed in one go. He had never heard of such updates being squeezed out bit by bit.
Meng Chang nodded. “Yes, I know that this doesn’t match tradition, but this is necessary for publicity.”
“Simply put, the release of the downloadable content ‘Eternal Reincarnation’ will be divided into four parts, or four stages. From this week onwards, we will update a portion of the content and label the percentage of current updates.”
“We will update about one-third of the downloadable content scenes, monsters, and downloadable content this week; the rest will be updated next week and next week respectively.”
“At the end of the month, we will update the downloadable content combat system and related content.”
“For every part of the update, we will explain to players the current progress of the downloadable content. From 25% to 50%, then to 75% and 100%.”
“According to Boss Pei’s requirements, Eternal Reincarnation will be the prerequisite for Repent and be Saved. You have to buy Eternal Reincarnation first before you can buy Repent and be Saved.”
“Therefore, we need to use pre-order to let players pay in advance. After players pre-order, we will update the content in Repent and be Saved in the first three stages so that players can experience it freely.”
“Once the fourth part is updated, which is the entire content of the downloadable content, the downloadable content will be divided from the main body. Players can buy the content of Eternal Reincarnation alone. Then, they can buy Repent and be Saved, just like what Boss Pei requested.”
This rule was more complicated. The good thing was that Fei’s understanding was not bad. He figured it out after careful consideration.
However, he was even more confused.
“Doesn’t that mean that we have to come up with four different updates?” Yu Fei said. “That would increase the workload for no reason.”
Meng Chang nodded. “I know. That’s why I need your cooperation.”
“The workload has indeed increased, but it’s very worth it to achieve a better publicity effect.”
Yu Fei pondered for a moment.
On the surface, Meng Chang’s plan only looked like it was to divide the content of the downloadable content into four parts. The scene and the monsters were divided into three parts. The last part was the combat system and plot.
It sounded easy, but it was actually quite troublesome to do.
For example, how to dismantle different scenes? From where? How to ensure the gaming experience after dismantling them? These were all questions Yu Fei had to consider.
However, on further thought, he decided to go through the motions.
At the moment, Hu Xianbin was not back yet. Since he was the chief designer, he had to be in charge of the work.
He thought for a moment and said, “I can do this, but it might not be so perfect. It might affect players’ gaming experience.”
Meng Chang smiled. “That’s completely alright!”
“Whether the first few parts would affect the game experience or not, they would not affect the publicity plan at all. You can dismantle them without any worries.”
“If anything happens, I’ll take responsibility.”
Yu Fei could not reject Meng Chang since he had already said that. He could only nod. “Alright, I’ll stand at the last position and do my best!”
