Chapter 471: Hot sales of point cards!
He Zhifu looked at Tang Xionghua and nodded, then continued.
“But after the 7 o’clock drop, the number of people online at the same time began to slowly rise again.
As of just now, the number of concurrent online players in our game has recovered to nearly 25,000. In addition, the highest-level player in the game has reached level 5."
"Well, you've worked hard. Go back and have some rest!"
Tang Xionghua patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Although work is important, you can't skip rest. There are other people here who will take turns to keep an eye on it!"
"Yes!"
The rules of the legendary game have not changed much, at least during the free time.
It is the same as the previous Shanda game, which is free to play before level seven.
So far, the highest player is only level five.
In other words, no one needs to spend money so far, so the sales data of point cards are not counted.
Of course, even if we want to count them now, we can’t.
Point cards are now sold on consignment basis, and are placed with internet cafe owners in various places. After the cards are sold, they are given a commission.
In this way, how can you keep statistics at any time?
We can only make a rough estimate when we receive payment and place orders.
However, this sales method will definitely be improved in the future.
After the New Year, Tang Yichen originally planned to ask Lin Wei to arrange someone to work on online banking payment. Later, he thought about it and decided to let the Tang family set up an online banking payment R&D platform. While doing research and development, they were also negotiating cooperation matters with major banks.
The progress is good at present and it is expected to be promoted in June or July at the latest.
If it is really promoted, the point card sales can adopt the online banking sales model to save some profits.
Of course, the Internet cafe sales model will definitely not be banned directly.
This is something that cannot be abolished in this era.
Not everyone has a bank card, and not everyone is willing to use it to deposit money and then go to the bank to open an online banking account. This is just a sales channel.
"Boss, how much are the point cards?"
In that ordinary Internet cafe in Yangcheng, Wang Jun's eyes were bloodshot, but his whole body was extremely excited.
He entered the game in the early morning and has been playing until noon now.
Yes, he never got off the plane.
Because of this, he has now reached level seven, the maximum experience level, and has learned the fireball technique.
After all, when a large number of Internet cafe players went offline, those who were online during the day could only swipe chickens and deer at the village entrance. However, because his level had increased, he could go to a farther place to swipe monsters. Although there were still a lot of people there, it was better than before.
Now, his game character's little fireball is definitely the focus of everyone's attention in the novice village.
While others were still using their fists or at most chopping with small wooden swords, he cast a fireball from a distance.
The damage is greater than that of a fist.
The key is that he is far away, standing in one place, and with his fireball skill, he can easily grab the monster.
Of course, he was no longer satisfied with just hanging around in the Novice Village. He wanted to go out.
Go out into the wider world.
So, he came to buy a game card, because there was a prompt in the game that after level seven, if he wanted to continue to upgrade, he could only pay for the game with a game card.
"Which one do you want?"
When the Internet cafe owner heard this, he was also cheered up. Finally, there was business!
Almost all Internet cafes are now cutting down on Legend, but he hasn't sold a single point card. Now that his first business has come, how can he not be excited? After all, he gets a commission for every card sold.
"How many kinds are there?" Wang Jun asked in surprise.
"Yes! There are three types. The ten-yuan point card is charged by time and can be used for fifty hours of play. Another type costs thirty yuan and can be used for two hundred hours of play. The last type is a monthly card, also thirty yuan, which can be used directly for a month!"
"This……"
Suddenly, Wang Jun was confused.
There are so many choices!
The key is that they are not cheap.
Ten yuan is equal to his half-day salary, and thirty yuan is equal to his daily salary plus overtime.
Quick mental calculations.
Then, he turned to the boss and said, "I want a thirty-dollar card that gives me two hundred hours of gameplay!
Ten dollars for fifty hours is equivalent to twenty cents per hour.
And 30 yuan for 200 hours of play means only 1 cent per hour
If he were to buy one, he would definitely choose a cheaper one. Anyway, he is very interested in this game now and he doesn't think he will not be able to play it.
Of course, he simply ignored the monthly subscription option.
This calculation is not worth it.
He still has to go to work. Even if he comes to kill for two or three hours every day after get off work, in thirty days, or a month, he may not be able to kill enough hours. Isn't it a big mistake to buy this?
"Okay, this is your card. Scratch it open and you'll find a code inside. Just log in to your account in the game and use it."
As he spoke, the boss handed Wang Jun a card that looked like a popular phone card.
At the same time, he took out a bottle of Coke and gave it to him.
"This is the free Coke when you buy a card!"
"Hey, okay, thank you, boss. Also, make me some instant noodles. Here's the money!
Wang Jun took out a brand new fifty-yuan bill and gave it to the boss.
After the boss gave him the change, he took his card and Coke and quickly returned to his seat.
……
"Mr. Tang, point card sales are booming. The marketing department has reported that internet cafe owners all over the country are calling and asking for free point cards!"
At around five o'clock in the afternoon on the 1st, when Tang Xionghua was just about to go to the company cafeteria for a bite to eat, He Zhifu knocked on the door and walked in with a happy look on his face.
In the morning, Tang Xionghua asked him to go and rest, and the guy agreed very well.
But he didn't go back at all. He just stayed in his office, took a nap for half the morning, and then got back to work in the afternoon.
Tang Xionghua knew about this, but he didn't try to persuade him.
At this moment, looking at He Zhifu who was staring at the dark circles under his eyes, Tang Xionghua smiled and said, "So how many people are online at the same time now?"
"Seventy-three thousand! And now the growth rate is obvious, it is expected to exceed one hundred thousand today!"
"Well, it's really good. Go ask the technical department to pay attention to the server situation. Also, the game supervision should be done well.
With more people, there will be all kinds of players. Some bugs hidden in the game may be found and exploited to disrupt the game balance. This must be closely monitored!"
"Yes!"
He Zhifu received new instructions and turned and left.
He didn't even think about going to eat right now. After all, Legend is now his career as a vice president. He hopes to do it well and looks forward to the Legend game's prosperity and then listing.
It also allows him to directly achieve class transcendence and financial freedom like the leaders of Wanhua and Yanglai.
However, his idea may be destined to be wishful thinking.
The gaming industry is a real cash cow industry.
As for this kind of cash industry, Tang Xionghua has no need to list it at all.
Why go public?
He is not short of money.
Of course, not going public does not mean that he cannot achieve financial freedom if he can continue to do his job well.
With the booming development of the gaming industry, his salary will certainly continue to rise.
