Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Thursday, September 16.

Pei Qian came to Modong Cafe Handong University again to inspect the progress of Qiao Laoshi's game.

来 This time, Pei Qian's mentality is completely different from before.

Because ... he has already cleared the level!

Of course, he cleared the customs with the simplest difficulty. He used "Pudu" and jumped directly from Huangquan Road to the six reincarnations, finishing the bosses after the six reincarnations.

If you ask Pei Qian at this time to fight for two weeks, I'm afraid it's hard to do.

Because the initial difficulty of the purpose of the second week is very high, and the "Purdue" will be the same as other weapons in the second week, and even because it cannot be strengthened, it will gradually become more garbage than other weapons. .

But what does it matter, anyway, the system task has been completed, and Pei Qian feels relaxed.

On the other side, the new fish net cafe is almost the same.

The site is located in the largest shopping mall in Jingzhou, and the rent is not cheap. It is 12 yuan. This is already the most expensive place that Pei has ever rented.

Although it is still incomparable with the rent ten years later, it is enough to make people startled.

The area this time is not as spacious as before, after all, it is inside the mall, only about 800 square meters.

After deciding not to engage in coffee and beverage business, he saved a lot of space, and Pei Qian also intentionally set aside a public leisure and entertainment area with a projector.

In the remaining space, 150 computers can be placed.

Pei Qian roughly calculated that the monthly rent is close to 300,000, and then hires two cashiers and four network administrators, and pays 30,000 to 40,000 salaries each month, plus other expenses such as electricity, cleaning, etc. 400,000 flowers to run in a month.

Continue to charge at 10 yuan / hour. At present, the average chance of using the fish Internet cafe is only 30% to 40%. According to the standard business hours of 8 to 24 o'clock every day, 300,000 will be earned if you add more.

Of course, many Internet cafes are open 24 hours, Pei Qian did not plan to do so.

It wasn't because the mall closed at night.

Even if the mall is closed, there are many movie theaters in the mall that will arrange 0:00, and there are customers coming in and out at two or three in the morning, which have not been affected by the closing of the mall.

It's nothing more than leaving a door for customers. This is nothing new.

Pei Qian opened this Internet cafe in order to lose money, of course, to reduce operating hours as much as possible.

If you calculate backwards, according to the current expenses, Internet cafes must maintain an average attendance of at least 60% to be profitable. Pei Qian thinks this should be an unlikely goal.

After all, the flagship store of Moyu Internet Cafe is so hot, and the attendance rate has not reached this figure.

Of course, Pei Qian did not fully believe in the data, after all, the data will change.

Pei Qian didn't hurry to spread the stall too big, but planned to open a new store first to see the situation.

If the loss is up to expectations, then invest a few more before settling; if you make money for some inexplicable reason, then quickly find a way to stop the loss.

Uh ...

When I came to the Handong University Store, Pei Qian pulled the computer chair next to Qiao Laoshi and sat down, drinking a cocktail while watching Qiao Laoshi playing games.

Pei Qian's original intention was just to see Qiao Laoshi's suffering and add a little fun to his busy work and life.

And Qiao Liang felt that he was taken seriously, and the whole person became energetic.

The chief designer of the game sits on the side and watches me playing the game, and is always ready to listen to my opinions and suggestions, how proud of it!

Lu Qiao old wet spirited.

At this point, Qiao Liang has just finished updating the game, and open the update log.

"Oh? The epitaph function is done?"

Qiao Qiaoliang was very surprised. President Pei quickly solved the problems raised last time. It can be seen that I really value my opinions!

Pei Qian also saw the update log, and said with some regret: "This feature of the epitaph is only available at the beginning of the game. It should not be played unless you open a new account."

Qi Qiaoliang entered the game: "It doesn't matter, I just want to play for two weeks."

Pei Qian: "..."

Nima!

Wu Qiao's old wet sentence was casual, but it was like a sharp knife stuck in the heart of Pei.

Is it okay to play for two weeks? ?

Pei Qian did get through for a week, but that was achieved through "Purdue" and unlimited skipping classes. The real game content may have experienced 30% to 40%.

But Qiao Laoshi is not the same. He is a game opened in accordance with the normal process, and also experienced a major setback in the middle-all his good weapons were cut by an unscrupulous designer, only to adapt to the new arms.

In this way, Qiao Laoshi's game progress is still the same as President Pei.

This is really more deadly than popularity ...

Pei Qian felt that her mood was not beautiful at all, and she was even a little suspicious.

I didn't doubt my game level, because Pei always knew that he was a weak chicken and never doubted this.

The main thing he suspects is the difficulty of the game.

I'm all like this, can't we stop Qiao Laoshi from clearing? ?

The ghost knows how hard I tried to make this game difficult for players!

However, even in this way, Qiao Laoshi was still cleared, which made Pei Qian feel a deep sense of frustration.

Even the favorite cocktails are not fragrant.

Fortunately, Qiao Laoshi is about to challenge the second week, and the difficulty of the second week has been significantly improved.

enter the game.

The cut scene at the beginning is still the same as before. After the opening CG, the camera comes to the original small village. Here are many villagers who lost their three souls and seven souls. In the mass grave near the village, the protagonist reveals the coffin. Up.

He was awakened as a dead person and embarked on the road to Huangquan.

According to the original design, the player should pick up a broken sword at this time to cut the monster.

But after this update, there is an extra cut.

The protagonist came to his grave on the mass grave post and saw a very simple tombstone with no words on it.

The protagonist squatted down in front of his tombstone, rubbing the rough, humble stele, and whispered in a husky voice: "There is no inscription ... in this case, write the epitaph for yourself."

At this time, an input box appears on the screen, and the player can freely enter text, up to ten characters.

Qi Qiaoliang scratched his head.

As the most annoying person, he is facing a very severe challenge at this time.

What kind of epitaph did you write?

Be more optimistic and encourage yourself?

Deterministically, set off the sad atmosphere?

I'm still funny?

I racked my brains and tried to make a few words, but there was no ink, not to mention that Pei was watching beside him, and it was too long to write a deliberate show off, which was very inappropriate.

Qi Qiaoliang thought about it and wrote down four words: "You can do it."

鼓励 Just write a simple sentence to encourage yourself!

After all, this is a very difficult game. After death, encourage yourself to say "you can" and face the next challenge more confidently.

Is another simple cutscenes. Four archaic characters are engraved on the tombstone as the epitaph, and the game officially starts.

"Two weeks, I'm here!"

Qi Qiaoliang was so excited that he planned to perform well in front of President Pei.

After all, with the salary that President Pei has given me for so long, I have to improve a bit.

Bian Qiaoliang felt a mourning stick. This is a two-handed weapon that he dropped from time to time in black and white in the scene behind the whole week. It is a very long stick with many white paper spikes on it.

It is a good heavy weapon with good attack power, and it also comes with weapon skills. After use, it can cause range damage to the enemy in front and draw a small amount of three souls and seven souls.

"Show your skills in front of President Pei!"

Qi Qiaoliang is full of confidence. After all, he has also solved the week with his own strength. He has already played many bosses and has seen all the strong winds and waves.

These mobs in Xinshoucun are totally indifferent.

The protagonist rushed up with his mourning stick.

Tong Qiaoliang clearly remembered that the first few mobs were stupid squatting at the mass grave post, and would only resist after being attacked, so they rushed forward with confidence.

However, he just rushed to the half, and the three mobs near the mass grave turned around and surrounded him!

Qi Qiaoliang was shocked, but it was too late, and he rolled subconsciously, but directly onto the blade of the mob.

When the three mobs rushed over and gave the protagonist each, Qiao Liang died on the spot.

The picture turned gray, and the epitaph he wrote in red archaic characters appeared in the center.

"you can".

Wrong, is it that good epitaphs encourage me?

How can the same taste change? ? ?

The scene was a little awkward for a while.

Qi Qiaoliang could not help but scratch his head.

I felt that I was holding a weapon and a mourning stick dropped from the boss to fight the mobs, and was directly killed by three, five, and two. At this time, a voiceover floated over: "You can."

The implication is that the equipment holding the boss can be abused by the mobs ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ You are great.

I was dissatisfied with three points, Qiao Liang was resurrected.

This time he made steady progress and successfully killed the three mobs at the mass grave gate, but soon he was killed again at the next corner.

"you can".

四个 Four red archaic characters appeared on the screen again.

Wu Qiaoliang: "..."

伸 He reached out his hand and fell into deep doubt about life.

what is happening……

Pei Qian watched silently, forcing herself not to laugh.

墓 This epitaph is very good, and it has perfectly met its expectations!

In fact, Pei Qian had long thought about it. No matter what the player wrote as the epitaph, the sentence that appeared after death would become ridicule.

鼓励 Even if it's an encouraging epitaph, "Come on, you're great", it will become a kind of irony when the player is dead.

If it is a taunting epitaph of "cai", "?", "Brother", "hehe", the effect will be better.

In other words, no matter what the player writes as the epitaph, 99% of the players will be juggled by President Pei and pressed on the ground repeatedly for ridicule!

In this way, it will inevitably produce an excellent dismissal effect, and with a long-term refund mechanism, Pei Qian will lose a large amount of sales and small money.

Alas, just think about it!

Moreover, at this time, seeing Qiao Laoshi's skeptical life, Pei Qian felt much more depressed now.

Pei Qian could only be silent.

Although it is wrong to hurt each other, but ...

I ’m so happy! !!
