Chapter 17 Let the Bullets Fly for a While
The next day!
Golden Wind Games Inc.
Game Director's Office.
Lu Bian and Dajiang sat on the sofa , looking a little sad.
The office was filled with smoke and a gloomy atmosphere.
"...What should I do, Brother Sheng?"
Dajiang put down the thermos cup and looked at Gu Sheng with some concern:
"It's already half past five. In less than three hours, our first day's results will be determined."
"yes,"
Lu Bian flicked the ash from his cigarette and continued:
"Our current sales volume is only 2,000, which is less than half of Cat Rio's. How are we going to explain it to the boss when he asks about it?"
good.
The reason why there was such a gloomy scene in Gu Sheng's office was because the performance of their second game "Who is the Daddy" was not ideal so far.
In fact, to say that it is not ideal seems a bit biased.
After all, sales of 2,000 copies on the first day are considered very impressive among the small games on the Yiyu platform.
but!
Don't forget, they have the example of Cat Rio.
With sales of over 4,800 copies on the first day, it almost completely suppressed other small games released at the same time.
Even in the history of Yiyou's first-day sales, it is a rare existence.
As the saying goes, people always strive for higher goals.
As the second work of Golden Wind, especially the debut work after the three of them joined forces, Lu Bian and Da Jiang definitely had the mentality of breaking the record.
But now.
There are less than three hours left until the end of the first day.
Their sales were lukewarm, not even half of Cat Rio's.
Such a situation is naturally frustrating.
"Did we do something wrong, Brother Sheng? We are sorry to have caused you trouble..."
Dajiang looked at the less-than-ideal sales data and pursed his lips.
Hearing this, Gu Sheng frowned and threw an orange towards Dajiang: "Then you give me one?"
Pop.
Dajiang was stunned when he took the orange.
Then I heard Lu Bian next to me couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, Dajiang,"
Lu Bian smiled and patted Dajiang on the shoulder:
"Don't say that. It sounds strange. Mr. Gu won't like it."
"oh,"
Dajiang shrank his neck, like a wronged bear:
“I just feel like I have a responsibility for this.”
Gu Sheng also knew that Dajiang was an honest child, so he sighed:
"Da Jiang, this is a job we three do together, so there is no question of one causing trouble for the other."
"I invited you to the company to make games with me, not to drag you in to take the blame,"
"The three of us are now the triangle beam of this company, and none of us can be missing."
"If one corner collapses, the whole thing collapses."
"So please don't say such things again, okay, you aggrieved big baby?"
Gu Sheng's words were friendly and playful, like a spring breeze, soothing people's hearts.
The roadside nodded secretly.
When it comes to emotional intelligence, the boss is really awesome.
Sure enough, after Gu Sheng's persuasion, Dajiang finally stopped blaming himself:
"Then...Brother Sheng, what should we do now?"
what to do?
This question really stumped Gu Sheng.
He didn't know what to do either.
In fact, according to common sense, having tasted the sweetness of being a live streamer before, they should strike while the iron is hot and keep up with the promotion this time.
Don’t underestimate publicity and promotion.
You know, for many classic masterpieces in the past, the publicity and promotion costs alone almost accounted for half of the total investment of the game, or even more!
But.
"I don't know why, but little Nezha seems to be a little resistant to publicity,"
Gu Sheng frowned, puzzled:
"In fact, before the game was released, I suggested to Xiao Nezha that we could take advantage of the residual popularity of Cat Rio and contact the Yiyou platform to see if they could give us a recommended position."
"Then what?"
Lu Bian asked:
"Little Nezha refused?"
"Um,"
Gu Sheng nodded:
"As she said, good wine needs no bush. As long as the quality of our games is good enough, Yiyou will come to us sooner or later."
"Well, that's true,"
Hearing this, Lu Bian nodded:
"Little Nezha is worthy of being the president. He looks silly and cute, but he is actually quite thoughtful."
"It seems that she wants to put the initiative in our own hands."
"If Yiyou comes to us on his own initiative, it will indeed be more beneficial to us..."
As he said this, Lu Bian couldn't help but look at little Nezha with admiration in his heart.
This young boss is really something.
The strategic vision is quite long-term.
"But - with our current performance, why would Yiyou choose us?"
After a moment, Dajiang asked a question:
"The current situation is that our first-day sales were cut in half, and our strategy cannot be realized."
"So, now all we can do is wait,"
Gu Sheng shrugged:
"Let the bullets fly for a while."
Gu Sheng is quite confident about the game "Who is the Daddy".
The problem is that it is not widely disseminated.
So, now they can only wait.
Waiting for the game to gain popularity.
Discussing!
Knock knock knock——
Then there was a knock on the office door.
Outside the door, the voice of the chief secretary Chu Qingzhou sounded:
"Director Gu, Mr. Shen is calling for a meeting. Please go to the conference room..."
…
Ten minutes later!
The Golden Wind executive team gathered in the conference room!
Shen Miaomiao is beaming with joy!
Different times have changed!
I still remember that the last time I held a sales discussion meeting, I almost had a heart attack!
But now, the offensive has begun!
The good days for me to lose money have finally come!
As Gu Sheng and the other two took their seats, Shen Miaomiao couldn't wait to make her opening remarks:
"Today's meeting is mainly to discuss the sales of our latest game,"
"I believe Director Gu and the two ministers also know about this,"
"Then let's get straight to the point, Secretary Chu."
Talking.
Shen Miaomiao waved her hand, indicating that Chu Qingzhou could start reporting the data.
Chu Qingzhou nodded:
"So far, our company's second game, "Who's the Daddy," has been on sale for nearly 22 hours,"
"Although it's been less than 24 hours, the data won't change much,"
"So, at Mr. Shen's request, we summarized the sales data for the past 22 hours,"
"The current sales volume is——"
“2,215 copies, total sales amount 11,075 yuan.”
Wuhu! Sprinkle flowers!!!
At this moment, Chu Qingzhou's voice sounded so beautiful in Shen Miaomiao's ears!
Although the first-day sales of more than 2,000 copies were somewhat beyond her expectations.
After all, she really didn't expect that without any promotion from the game zone anchors, this stupid game would still have more than 2,000 people buying it.
I don't know where these innocent people came from.
but!
Such a first-day result is already a great progress for her!
This is more than half less than Cat Rio’s first-day performance!
In fact, because there is no publicity, the staying power of this game will definitely not be as good as Cat Rio!
Keep going in this direction!
An estimated sales volume of 6,000 copies in the first week would be the maximum!
Shen Miaomiao's brain was working rapidly——
Total sales of 30,000! Net loss of 70,000! Rebate settlement! More than 700,000!
Wuhu!
take off!
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but once again marvel at the power of her system!
He did nothing but hired three idiots to make a game and earned $700,000 in a week!
The world's richest man seems to be waving!
However!
Right at this moment!
Ding Dong——
Suddenly, a cell phone alert sounded.
Feeling the vibration, Shen Miaomiao casually took out her cell phone from her pocket.
I saw a message on the lock screen push:
