Big Manga

After Meng Huo's trip to Yanjing, almost overnight, large-scale "Pokemon" promotional activities appeared in various parts of China.

TV, radio, newspapers, buses, subways, train stations, the slogan of "Pokemon" can be seen everywhere in first- and second-tier cities. Even in small remote counties, people can also see advertisements from multiple TV stations. There was also a promotional advertisement for the game in the middle of the animation. For a while, everyone knew that "Pokemon" was about to be released.

As He Xi's hometown in Qingcheng County, the promotional signs of "Pokemon" were moved to the door of the store by the bosses of bookstores and game stores, attracting a lot of attention.

But also because of this, He Xi has become a big topic in Qingcheng County. When the villagers of Lijia Village go out, they can't help saying proudly that He Xi is born in their village. The old people were even more itchy. They found Li Qin's elder brother, Li Mingchao, and asked him to go to Ninghai to persuade Li Qin's mother and son to let Meng Huo "recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors" earlier.

Li Mingchao felt that it was very difficult, but he had to listen to what the old people said, so he brought his son Li Li and his daughter-in-law to Ninghai, who had returned home from working in Xiangjiang.

Before he got out of the train station, Li Li was dazzled by the advertisements around some shops and convenience stores.

"It's all an advertisement for "Pokemon", this is too powerful!"

He exclaimed, almost every store in the station has a poster of "Pokemon" hanging on the eye-catching position. This scene reminds Li Li of the new mobile phone 'Gai 6' released by Four Star, a communication giant in the Far East a few years ago. time scene. At that time, the Xiangjiang Railway Station and the streets were full of pictorial posters, and even the advertisements of "Gai 6" were placed on the buses.

"How much does it cost? It's incredible!" Back then, the "Gai 6" was an epoch-making mobile phone artifact, but "Pokemon" was a game that sold for less than 40. Such a big advertising campaign. Li Li was overwhelmed with emotion: "Cousin, if he has money, he doesn't spend it that way!"

"That's right. What kind of job do we still have? As long as Meng Huo says something casually, we won't have to worry about it for the rest of our lives." Li Li's wife was also very excited. She turned to Li Mingchao and said, "Dad, you must help Let's talk to my aunt, how can my cousin do well without any relatives around him, even if he is a handyman. Let Li Li help him!"

Li Mingchao frowned slightly, and he looked back at his son: a thick, dark-faced man, there was really no way to connect him with Meng Huo. During the Chinese New Year, Li Mingchao was in awe of his nephew, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. He was clean and handsome, with a stable temperament. He was an elite person honed in a big city, and his rude son was embarrassing him by following him.

"He, he'd better forget it!" Li Mingchao took a good face and was not polite to his son: "He has no knowledge or skills,

I don't understand anything, if you want me to say something nice to Qinzi, you have to take out something before talking. "

Finish this sentence. Li Mingchao walked towards the train station sullenly.

"When will your dad's stubborn personality change?" Li Li's wife couldn't help but scolded, and Li Li said helplessly, "Forget it. I dropped out of school back then, and he kept worrying about it...we will tell my aunt later. Just say it, my aunt has a good temper."

"Yes, my aunt will definitely help us!" The wife turned her head, and the two followed them out of the train station.

Li Qin had been notified of their arrival in advance, so after leaving the train station, a car appeared in front of them to greet them not long after.

"Is that car your cousin's personal car?"

"Well, my dad said that my cousin used to use a sweat car before, but it was given to someone else... I don't know what he thinks."

"What do you know? Really rich people don't like to show off their wealth. You see, the drivers are all wearing suits, and they look so grand... Others say that approaching the driver is the best way to approach the leader. Let’s say something nice to the driver and find a way to build a good relationship and let him speak for us.”

A bunch of young couples were talking about each other, but after getting in the car, Li Mingchao sat in the passenger seat first and chatted with the driver.

"Is Meng Huo at home today?" he asked.

"Not here." The driver replied while driving: "Young master now mainly works in Suhua and Tokyo, and rarely returns to Ninghai."

Li Mingchao breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, the matter he took over was very difficult. Meng Huo would definitely not agree to it. It would be better if he wasn't around. Li Mingchao would have enough excuses when he went back to work.

"That..." The daughter-in-law in the back seat was about to speak, but Li Mingchao frowned slightly, and hurriedly said, "There are a lot of advertisements for "Pokemon" on this street, the advertisement fee should be very high?"

"I don't know about that."

The driver looked back at Li Mingchao in surprise. He had contacted many people. In the past two years, many people wanted to get close to Meng Huo through him, so he could see the thoughts of the two young people in the back seat at a glance. But he didn't expect that the middle-aged man next to him would not give his family a chance at all.

"This Li family is really interesting..." the driver thought so, but continued to say: "The advertising expenses of "Pokemon" are only known to the company's senior management, and the young master didn't tell me... But from my estimation Look, the promotion of the game this time is also unprecedented, and I estimate that the advertising fee will be at least tens of millions."

"So much!" Li Mingchao was stunned: "But the game of "Pokemon" is only 30 Huaxia coins, such a high advertising fee, how can I make it back!"

There are people who have the same doubts as him in all parts of China. This time, the publicity of "Pokemon" has exceeded everyone's expectations, and only the internal members know that the actual funder of the huge publicity expenses of "Pokemon" is Datang Datang is willing to participate in the two companies of Longquan and Longquan, and its purpose is very clear.

Nearly half of the Pokemon ads are for handhelds.

"How is this going!"

Yanjing, the headquarters of Datang Corporation, a young man walked into the CEO's office aggressively, and he left a poster on the table: "Ye Man, you said you would cooperate with "Pokemon", but I have never heard of such a big advertising spending, and why did the handheld develop an exclusive version of "Pokemon"!?"

Sitting in the position of the president is a woman, Ye Man, the granddaughter of the founder of Datang Company and the former largest shareholder of Datang Company. The young man is her husband, Qi Ying, who is now the first shareholder.

The relationship between the two is very bad, or it is not an exaggeration to say that the couple are sworn enemies. Qi Ying is Ye Man's college classmate, and has always been very honest and studious. The young Ye Man married him without hesitation, but after getting married, Qi Ying used sweet words and various means to seize Ye Man's family shares. People completely turned their faces.

"I'm in charge of the company's management." Ye Man sat on the chair and didn't get up. She reached out to pick up the poster on the table and looked at it, and said, "I don't think this matter has anything to do with you?"

"How could it be irrelevant? This is my company!" Qi Ying sneered: "Don't forget that I am the largest shareholder of Datang now, if you can't give an explanation, I will impeach you at the shareholders meeting you!"

Datang's shareholding system is a bit like the Phoenix Company, where the enterprise is in the hands of shareholders. However, although Qi Ying is the largest shareholder, his personal shares do not exceed the shares of other shareholders. The other shareholders unanimously agreed to let Ye Man be the president of the company. Qi Ying tried everything possible to find her fault, and now he finally has a chance!

This time "Pokemon" was released, Datang spent a huge amount of advertising expenditure, but did not get a share of the game revenue, which was undoubtedly a huge failure for Ye Man. As for why they didn't say it was a complete failure, it was because Datang also pursued something in the propaganda, and the poster Qi Ying put out was their goal.

"Faster, better, and more value-for-money! Book the exclusive handheld of "Pokemon" now, so that you can enjoy the fun of the game!"

The title of the poster is this, and the content is a handheld that looks similar to a handheld. This advertisement often appears not only on posters, but also on TV and other media. Longquan sells the "Pokemon" game, while Datang sells new handhelds that include "Pokemon".

But despite having such a purpose, Qi Ying still felt that Datang didn't need to do this. Players who didn't have a handheld had to buy the game and play it. Why did Datang help promote it?

"..." Ye Man was silent, her expression was a little bad: "We are selling the newly updated version 4.4, which is compatible with previous games, and the exclusive version of "Pokemon" is just a promotional reason... Even if there is no "Pokemon" , sooner or later we have to promote version 4.4."

"There is nothing wrong with my decision." Ye Man looked up and said in a cold voice: "The company estimates that "Pokemon" can bring three million sales of new handhelds, and even drive the replacement of the market, which is of great importance to us. There are benefits."

"Three million sales?" Qi Ying smiled: "Are you kidding? Now, which handheld game can drive the sales of handhelds to break three million?"

Let alone three million, even one million is impossible. Datang's handhelds cost several hundred yuan, and the games on the handhelds range from free to tens of yuan. Even the most popular game "Cute Cat" has only a million players. And if these millions of players were to buy a handheld with a few hundred yuan for the sake of 'cute cat', no more than 300,000 people would be willing.

"Pokemon", which sells for 30 Huaxia coins, drove the sales of the new version of the handheld to over three million, which is too ridiculous!

"You don't believe it? Then how about we sign a gambling agreement?" Ye Man's eyes flashed a sharp light, and said: "If the new version of the handheld breaks through three million, then you return the equity to me and get out. If there is no breakthrough Three million, I will leave this position to you! And... no matter the outcome, we both have to divorce!"

Qi Ying was stunned.

"OK."

Then he sneered.

"That's what you said, don't hate me if you lose!" (To be continued...)
