An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 306 Mr. Hao's Ambition

Of course it is too late to change careers now, but Zhou Ruining is just thinking about it.

Just kidding, it's impossible for her to give up her current job.

Although the five million bonus is very attractive, not everyone has the opportunity to get it.

In contrast, being Mr. Hao's assistant is much easier than playing games. Every day I just make coffee, sort out documents, answer the phone, and there are many bonuses. The most important thing is that the value of being able to study with such a boss cannot be measured by money. I don't know how many people envy her job.

As for playing games...

She is still self-aware of her talents.

At least for the games under the Yunmeng Group, all she could play was Love and Paper Man, and she would start to get flustered with more complicated games.

"Will five million be too much?" Li Zongzheng came back to his senses, looked at Hao Yun hesitantly and persuaded, "That's five million, how many more games can we sell back?"

"Why do you think that the game must be subsidized with the money from selling games?" Hao Yun gave him a strange look and said, "This way of thinking is not advisable. Why can't we make money through the game?"

Make money from contests?

Li Zongzheng didn't know how to complain.

After all, Warcraft is just a game that has just been launched for less than a month. How many loyal players will pay for this game? The road of collecting tickets is definitely not going to work. It may be possible to get a little sponsorship, but the Matthew effect of the advertising industry determines that unless this kind of event can gather hundreds of millions of eyeballs like the People's Federation Basketball League, it will be very difficult. What kind of powerful sponsors have been drawn.

As for broadcast rights, that's even more ridiculous.

If it is an online game, there is a high probability that the game will be broadcast on the official website at the end. Regardless of whether it is online media or traditional media, no one is interested in the broadcast rights of a game event, and they may have to spend money to get the other party to agree to broadcast it on their website.

"...I think you may be too optimistic about our influence," Li Zongzheng hesitated, and finally decided to express his concerns, "Even if the sales of Warcraft have been increasing recently, it doesn't mean that those Players will be interested in our competitions. Take Rice Entertainment’s Seven Kingdoms as an example, their sales have approached the five million mark, but they haven’t thought about holding any competitions in the past..."

"This way of thinking is problematic," Hao Yun shook his head, and said slowly, "Why do we use Rice Entertainment as a reference? Do we need to compare with them? We only do ourselves, and we are the industry's vane. I can make a bet with you, when our e-sports project is completed, Rice Entertainment will definitely follow suit, and then the prize money will be double or even more than ours."

Then……

They will lose badly.

Whether it is games or sports, the prize money of the game is a lottery, which can indeed attract excellent teams or individuals to participate, but the audience will not pay for the amount of the prize money.

If spending money can create a phenomenal event, then the basketball industry will not be dominated by the People's League.

Will those TV stations that spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy broadcasting rights be short of bonus money? If it could be solved by spending money, they would have already spent money on their own competitions, just like their own variety shows and TV series...

"Then what are you going to do then?" Li Zongzheng asked back following his words without thinking of going so far away.

"It's not good, we don't have to do anything." Hao Yun replied calmly, "The bonus is just to raise the threshold of competitors, not our moat. The Seven Kingdoms is not a competitive game, even if it achieves a certain value in terms of value. The level of balance, its entertainment also determines that it can only appear in the player's computer, not on the field."

"But our World of Warcraft is different. Even cloud players who have never played games can still feel the excitement of competition from the game. Maybe it will be eliminated by new games inspired by it in the future, but this kind of Things definitely don't happen right now."

"So I said, we don't need to regard them as our competitors at all, we are not on the same road from the beginning."

After listening to Hao Yun's words, Li Zongzheng's face was full of shock.

He has always been self-aware of his self-confidence and idealist status.

However, after meeting Mr. Hao, he felt that his evaluation of himself was somewhat modest.

What is self-confidence?

What is an idealist?

I'm afraid that no one in this company is more confident and dare to think than Boss Hao...

Just like he never took "we are a company serving dreams" seriously, Li Zongzheng only wants to be a game designer who can be remembered by millions of players, and make Yunmeng Games a great game company .

However, Mr. Hao seems to be aiming at being the first in the industry from the very beginning...

"I understand." In awe, Li Zongzheng took a deep breath and nodded seriously, "I will do my best to run this competition well."

Hao Yun nodded, with a gratified smile on his face.

"Well, then I'll leave it to you."

"Also, there is one more thing."

"Please speak!" Li Zongzheng said seriously.

After a pause, Hao Yun continued.

"The new version of Warcraft will be launched after the end of the Warcry Cup. At that time, we will add some more interesting things to the game."

"You even have a new version in mind?"

Seeing Li Zongzheng with a surprised face, Hao Yun nodded with a smile.

"Of course, I thought about it from the beginning."

It's okay to think about it from the beginning...

That being the case, why not post it in the first place?

Li Zongzheng was a little confused, but after thinking about it, he finally didn't ask.

Mr. Hao seldom explains the reason for doing something to them, but if there is a need to explain, he will naturally say it.

"By the way, you told me just now that some people spread rumors on the Internet recently, saying that the prize money for our competition is one million?" Suddenly recalling the previous incident, Hao Yun said.

Li Zongzheng said with a sigh.

"That's the case, I'm having a headache how to respond."

"Now you know how to respond." Hao Yun said with a smile.

"Of course I know now."

Li Zongzheng nodded and was about to leave the office.

However, at this moment, Zhou Ruining who was standing aside suddenly spoke.

"Wait a minute..." Noticing that the two were looking at her, her voice subconsciously weakened a few decibels, "Can I make a suggestion?"

Gave her an encouraging look, Hao Yun said.

"No problem, let's talk."

"I think it's too laborious to reply one by one. We might as well hold a press conference directly, and you, Mr. Hao, will tell the players about this in person. I think it will be more efficient than emails and phone calls, and it can also promote A wave."

press conference?

yes.

Why did I forget such a convenient option!

He and Li Zongzheng looked at each other, and it was obvious that the other party also thought the idea was brilliant, so Hao Yun looked at Zhou Ruining and nodded in approval.

"That's a good idea!"

"You contact Du Ziteng for me, and Sun Xiaoteng from Yunmeng Media, they are relatively experienced in preparing press conferences."

"Let's set the date in three days. In short, the sooner the better."

"I'll leave this to you!"
