Recreation Starts From the Heartbeat

This farce in the peripheral circle has ended, and Mi Tang Studio and its sub-brand "Glory Peripherals" have become the biggest beneficiaries.

Too bad it's out of stock.

Otherwise, during this period of time, you should be able to sell more and earn a little more money by taking advantage of the popularity.

Uh……

Well, making money is something that comes later, so let’s find a way to recover the initial investment first.

...

end of January.

Chinese New Year is approaching.

The Chinese New Year version of "Plants vs. Zombies" is finally online, and Tang Su distributed prizes to those players who participated in the contribution activities and were officially recognized as promised.

There are three types of prizes.

They are the fruit phone worth 10,000 yuan, the Xingyao keyboard worth 4,000 yuan, and the Honor A87 co-branded model worth 1,299 yuan.

You can choose a prize reward or exchange it for a corresponding cash reward.

Interestingly:

The player who got the first reward chose the cash reward, while the other players chose the item reward.

Tang Su was not surprised by their choice.

Fruit mobile phones are not a rare thing, and it has been more than half a year since the latest model was launched. You can buy it anytime you want. Compared with item rewards, everyone obviously prefers cash rewards of the same price.

But the Xingyao keyboard and the Honor keyboard are different.

Although the former is priced at 4,000 yuan, it has a price and no market. The cheapest second-hand price is more than 4,000 yuan. Even if it is sold directly after getting it, it is more cost-effective than cash rewards, and it is not necessarily It will be sold, and most likely it will be fresh.

The same is true for the Honor keyboard. The cash reward is only 1,000 yuan, but the selling price of the keyboard itself is 1,299 yuan, and this is only the selling price. If it is more than 1,000 yuan, whether it is kept for personal use or sold, it is more cost-effective than 1,000 yuan in cash.

After the reward is issued.

Tang Su told the players about this in the 'Sky World', and reminded the winning players to pay attention to checking the delivery information.

"I'm so envious."

"I don't really envy the first place. That guy is a well-known young writer. He can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars just by writing anything. Writing the plot for the new chapter of "Plants vs. Zombies" is definitely true love."

"Shit! The game "Plants vs. Zombies" is too popular, isn't it? Even a writer like him can be attracted?"

"What's this, don't writers play games?"

"I'm so envious of the brothers who are about to receive the keyboard. By the way, is the keyboard out? I'll charge the original price."

"The original price? You seem to be thinking about the fart, I'll add five hundred."

"I guess they won't sell it. Compared with cash at the same price, keyboards are a bit rarer. Moreover, if people can win awards based on their own abilities, it is estimated that the main business will make a lot of money, not bad for this amount of money. ."

"That's right. Unfortunately, my major doesn't come in handy. Otherwise, I'll give it a try... Brothers, it's really useful to choose the right major. You can get a keyboard for free. I'm so envious."

"Brother upstairs, what is your major?"

"Open the excavator."

"???"

"Upstairs brother upstairs, I suggest you learn cooking skills, and then you can cook with an excavator."

"If you have this time, it's better to play the new chapter. You can feel the craftsmanship of the big guys for 20 yuan. It's a huge profit."

"Yes, yes, you have made a lot of money, and game makers are dying."

...

Chinese New Year.

It was originally planned to be released on the day of the Spring Festival, but after thinking about it, forget it.

During the Spring Festival, everyone has a lot of things to do and may not have time to play games.

And the most important thing is that the company and studio are also on holiday, and they are also busy with mergers...

the next day.

"The results of the Spring Festival chapter are not bad. The first day's revenue of the entire platform has exceeded 5 million."

Zhang Yuning said.

The first-day revenue of 5 million may not be a big deal for those large game makers, and it can even be said to be very popular, but for a small company like them, it is definitely a very successful.

If the follow-up results are stable, I dare not say more, relying on the paid update of this "Spring Festival", it is absolutely no problem to earn millions or even tens of millions.

"Let's do the contribution event held before."

Tang Su thought for a while and said, "It was the Spring Festival before, and the style was very festive. This time, let's do a spring chapter. The cold winter is over, and spring will bring it. As for the plot and settings, just leave it to those players. I think they like to participate in activities..."

"good."

Xu Jinyang, who was sitting next to him, nodded and made two simple notes in his notebook.

As an assistant, this kind of thing must be left to him to arrange.

...

soon.

The second "Plants vs. Zombies" submission activity has begun. This time the theme is: The cold winter is over, and all things are revived.

"Fuck, are you still coming?"

"The Spring Festival chapter has just been launched, and the new chapter has started to hold events. Is this the top of the leek?"

"It's not really about cutting leeks. The new chapter is quite fun. 20 yuan is definitely worth the money. If you switch to those cheating mobile games, at least you will get 648..."

"I heard that "Plant Zombies" is going to be updated once a month. I laughed at that time. Now it seems..."

"Really plan to update it once a month? Has the game been introverted to such a degree now?"

"I'm thinking about a question: Is this game made by the manufacturer, or is it made by us players? (Yes, I'm talking about the contribution activity)."

"Fuck, I thought it was weird just now, and now I suddenly reacted. We are so active in participating in the investment activities, and then the game makers will collect all these, and then make a game to cut our leeks..."

"Capitalists have to call experts when they see it."

"Game makers: It's too easy to make money in the game industry? We don't even need to design games, the leeks will cut it by themselves."

"It's too much! Brothers, I suggest not to participate in the event. I can't accept being so humiliated by the manufacturer..."

"Yes, yes, we absolutely cannot accept this shameless behavior of the manufacturer. As a player's father, we cannot be led by the manufacturer..."

The players were a little outraged.

And at this moment-

The ‘Official Account of Sky Games’ once again issued a statement:

"Oh, by the way, I just got excited and forgot to post the rewards. This time we have prepared a total of 100 prizes for the event. The first place can get a bonus of 10,000 yuan, and the 2-10 people can get 6,666 yuan in cash. Red envelopes, 11-20 people can get a set of 'Xingyao V87' keyboard, 21-30 people can get a set of 'Honor A87 Joint Edition' keyboard, 31-100 people can get 2 official genuine "Plants vs Zombies" theme A 10,000mAh power bank. The above is the list of rewards for this event, if you are interested, remember to participate more."

This time the reward...

So rich.

The players were a little silent when they saw this.

"Actually... I suddenly feel that it's good to participate in the event. The reward is not important. The important thing is that I have a heart to contribute to "Plants vs. Zombies". After all, I am a kind person."

"You're right upstairs."

"Me too."

"By the way, why did the rewards become so generous this time? Boss Tang made a fortune?"

"Don't you know upstairs? After the release of the new chapter of "Plants vs. Zombies", it rushed to the best-selling list of several mobile game platforms that day..."

"Fuck, I just said why this guy suddenly became so generous."

"It is estimated that I want to add more rewards. The next chapter will be better, and then I will cut some leeks."

"You stay here and talk about cutting leeks over and over again, do you know that we real leeks have a very painful heart."

"Think about how to participate in the event first, and try it out. With my level, I can get a power bank no matter how bad it is."

"The power bank is purely a participation award. Work hard to get into the top 30."

"The cold winter is over, and all things are reviving... Suddenly I feel like writing a propositional composition hhhhh."

"Boss Tang is so treacherous. With such a little reward, he can fool us into working for him, and then he can earn our money with our hard work..."

"I never thought that, as a music student, one day I would work for the owner of a game company..."

Tucao returns to Tucao.

But you should still participate.

After all, the reward this time is indeed quite generous.

Even if they knew that this was Tang Su's method of cutting leeks, they would not tire of it.

If they can really win, the material reward is one aspect, and the spiritual reward is what they care about the most. Seeing that something they designed has entered a new chapter of a popular mobile game is definitely enough to brag about for several years.

...

At the end of January, the Spring Festival is approaching.

in the key ring.

The contradictions and disputes between Mitang Studio, Honor Peripherals, and the three major manufacturers have come to an end, and they have been filled by the Spring Festival activities of major brands.

Compared with eating melons, participating in preferential activities is the most important.

Although the three major manufacturers were put together, causing them to be ridiculed by the players of the key ring, when their products had strong promotions, everyone's reaction was still very "really fragrant".

To be honest, although the level of the three major manufacturers of keyboards has not improved much in recent years, after all, they are well-known mass production manufacturers, and the quality is still in place. For ordinary users who have never used a good keyboard, the experience is quite good. .

Therefore, once the promotion is very strong, it is actually very easy to sell.

As for the "Glory Peripherals", the dark horse that has been killed recently?

The new keyboard is admittedly good, and everyone loves it, but so what? Can't buy it.

Moreover, this company has a 'dark history'.

The original 'Forest Elk', the 'Xingyao V87' some time ago, and now the 'Honor A87' are so low that people doubt the output of life, and many consumers who have participated in the panic buying are a little nervous.

No one believes Su Tang's nonsense anymore.

Every time she said that the supply was sufficient, but each time it couldn't last for two seconds...

God's supply is plentiful.

Instead of waiting for this new keyboard that I don't know when I can buy it, it is better to take advantage of the big discounts of the three major manufacturers and take down the keyboard that I usually like.

There are also many netizens who are excited about the "Glory Series" and leave messages in Su Tang's Weibo dynamic:

"Look at the brands next door. They hold events every day. As a competitor, aren't you in a hurry?"

This is the urge to produce.

Su Tang seemed to have just seen it, so he replied: "I'm in a hurry, but I can't do anything because the production is limited. Don't rush it any more. If you rush it, I will have to go to the factory to tighten the screws myself."

Every day is urged to change the pattern, it is really painful and happy.

Su Tang is not in a hurry, after all...

It's no use worrying, so the output can be driven out by yourself in a hurry?

It's all planned out anyway, so take it slow.

As for missing the New Year and letting those competitors make a fortune?

In this regard, Su Tang is not in a hurry.

"You can't buy a keyboard but you can't play it. At the time, I thought one would be enough, but in fact... it's like a girl's closet, it can never be filled, and it's always a surprise that one piece is missing. Heartwarming latest."

Su Tang thought lazily.

As a Yeluzi net writer and a three-minute hot girl who entered the keyboard in the middle of the pit, she knew very well how terrible the mechanical keyboard would be when it entered the pit, and she would never be satisfied and keep buying it.

"Isn't there a lot of so-called fever-reducing keyboards?"

Tang Su raised a question.

"The so-called fever-reducing keyboard is just that the comprehensive experience in all aspects is better, and it is only satisfying to use, it does not mean that it can really reduce the fever..."

Su Tang said lightly: "Satisfying use and a new experience are not the same thing. When you get a very good keyboard, you will feel that your fever has subsided, but after a while, you will feel that your keyboard also Not so good, and at the same time I saw a new model that said to have a completely different experience... understand?"

"It seems to understand a little bit."

Tang Su nodded thoughtfully.

He is not a keyboard lover. When he first came into contact with the concept of customization, he got one of the best works in the circle, and naturally he would not have a fever.

But obviously...

These leeks who bought keyboards during the Spring Festival promotions did not have the opportunity to "fever before fever". They fell into the pit of mechanical keyboards, and it may take a long, long time to climb out...

"Have you figured out what to do next?"

Tang Su asked suddenly.

"Think about it."

Su Tang seemed to know what he was asking, and nodded lightly: "Although I don't want to admit it, these mass-produced brands headed by the three major manufacturers are indeed very strong, and our family's ability is not enough to compete with them. Not to mention subverting their position in the key circle, so we need allies..."

Mi Tang Studio, after all, is just a small studio with a market value of one billion yuan. This market value is still counted as the Mi Tang Factory. If it is not the factory, it will have a market value of 200 to 300 million at most. It's nothing compared to the big brands.

Don't look at the game with the opponent this time seems to be a victory.

But this is completely unintentional. The three major manufacturers admit that the design ability of Mi Tang Studio is excellent, but that's all. Except for the design ability, there is almost nothing.

Therefore, the three major manufacturers did not take Mi Tang Studio to heart at all, they only paid attention to it on the surface, but in their hearts they disapproved and did not think that the other party would threaten their status in the arena.

Until recently it was calculated...

This made the three major manufacturers feel pain, and made them realize that they underestimated Mi Tang Studio, and then, once the two sides confronted again, Mi Tang Studio wanted to achieve such an easy success, I am afraid it is impossible.

so--

Allies are needed.

Not one or two, but many, enough to make the three major manufacturers feel the scalp tingling.

So best.

...

The last day of January.

Spring is approaching.

Su Tang held an industry exchange meeting in the name of "Mitang Studio Owner", and invited many domestic customized studios and small and medium-sized mass production manufacturers who did not have contradictions to participate, and then...

The venue for the meeting was the rice soup factory.

The meeting lasted for a full two hours.

After the meeting, Su Tang and several senior management of Mi Tang Studio took everyone to visit the entire factory to further understand the strength of Mi Tang Studio.

It didn't end until after eleven o'clock at noon, when it was time for lunch.

After talking for so long, we must have a meal together.

Su Tang thought about it, and called Tang Su together.

"Why did you call me?"

Tang Su frowned slightly: "I'm not one of your key circles. I basically can't understand you talking about these topics. It's too embarrassing."

He is an outsider in the circle, and it is a bit inappropriate to participate in such a dinner.

"Don't worry, they won't talk about keyboard-related topics, at least not about topics you don't understand."

Su Tang said with a smile: "After seeing what we showed, these people were so shocked that they were speechless. Talking about the keyboard in front of us would be a shame."

"Uh……"

Tang Su didn't know what to say for a while.

Mi Tang Studio has gathered the power of most of the customized key circles, and spent hundreds of millions of dollars and three years of painstaking research to accumulate the current results. People outside the studio, whether customized studio or Small and medium-sized mass production manufacturers have a huge gap with Mi Tang Studio.

In front of Mi Tang Studio, they really don't have the confidence to discuss the keyboard.

In the past, it was a very good topic, but now, it may not be a very favorite topic for them...

...

The process of eating is very harmonious.

It's really just an ordinary meal, and there are no workplace dinners and the like, and I haven't seen those vulgar people who persuade you to drink, and there is no such thing as "you look down on me if you don't drink".

Just happy.

"Mr. Tang, I have long admired the name."

One of the young men stepped forward to greet him with a smile: "My surname is Wang, and I am the founder of 'Wang Dao Studio'."

King's Studio...

Tang Su nodded suddenly: "I have long admired the name."

"Mr. Tang heard of our studio?"

The other party was a little curious.

"Of course."

Tang Su nodded and said: "Wangdao Studio is customizing the key circle, almost everyone knows it, and it began to deploy globalization as early as five years ago. At that time, it was one of the few Chinese people in the global market. The team founded the studio, and before the birth of Mi Tang Studio, it has always been the first brother in the domestic customization market.”

"Uh……"

The smile on Boss Wang's face froze.

He was very comfortable listening to the praise in front of him.

but……

What do you mean 'before Mi Soup Studio was born'? You make it clear to me.

Ok.

In fact, there is no need to make it clear, because with the strong debut of Mi Tang Studio, his 'Wang Dao Studio' is really nothing. So far, it is only tens of millions, and even Mi Tang is not as good as one-tenth. .

But even so, Wangdao Studio can rank in the top three among all the domestic customized key circle studios, which is very powerful.

"Cough cough..."

Su Tang rolled her eyes at Tang Su, then said, "Wangdao Studio is very powerful. When Mitang was first established, we also borrowed a lot of designs with Wangdao style. Although we have since surpassed it, but anyway, The kingly way is our origin..."

She is trying to save face for Boss Wang, but...

The effect does not seem to be ideal.

"Then what, let's talk about something else."

Boss Wang reluctantly changed the topic.

After ignoring the misunderstanding just now, the three of them chatted quite well.

"Mr. Tang, have you thought about making some joint names for the games you made before?"

Boss Wang asked suddenly.

How many games have you made before?

Tang Su was stunned, then shook his head: "The previous versions of "Plant Zombies" were just petty tricks, and I didn't care much about them. It has been preserved until now.”

"Digging for Ascension" and "Cat Leo".

Tang Su didn't pay much attention to it.

Especially after the birth of "Plants vs. Zombies", Tang Su didn't even bother to pay attention.

The income of those few games is actually okay, quite stable. All together, it is more than a hundred thousand a month. Sometimes it is suddenly recommended by a big anchor, and it may soar to hundreds of thousands in that month...

But what about Plants vs. Zombies?

They earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, and this is still under the condition that they do not deliberately make money. Otherwise, they can easily earn millions of dollars a day.

"Is President Wang interested?"

Tang Su asked.

The other party suddenly asked this, obviously not out of nowhere.

"I'm very interested in "Cat Leo", I want to make a "Cat Leo" themed keycap."

Boss Wang nodded and said, without covering it up.

Cat Leo themed keycaps...

Tang Su didn't know what to say for a while.

Can such a simple style of painting be made into keycaps?

But now is not the time to think about this, he glanced at Su Tang, made eye contact, and then said with a smile: "This is easy to handle, you can go back and find an employee to come to our company to do a paper authorization. "

As for the copyright fee or something, I didn't mention it.

Not that necessary.

For a game of the size of "Cat Leo", how much is the copyright fee?

It's okay to give something symbolic, it doesn't matter.

The reason why this boss Wang talked about cooperation is probably because the drunkard's intention is not drinking, and his mind is mostly not on the cooperation of this theme keycap...

"Mr. Tang, the Spring Festival chapter of "Plants vs. Zombies"... Do you two have any plans to cooperate?"

Boss Wang asked again.

Spring Festival...

Tang Su smiled.

Sure enough, "Cat Leo" is a bonus, and this thing is the main purpose of the other party.

"I wasn't going to do this."

Su Tang stalled his hands and said very simply, "I don't have any in stock."

Out of stock, which is a very sad thing.

Tang Su understood her subtext, smiled, and said, "To be honest, I have never cooperated with Jianhuan Studio, and I don't know the specific process and pricing~www.wuxiaspot.com~ That's it, Mr. Wang If you are interested, talk to Mi Tang Studio... In the future, I will entrust the copyright of all the company's new games in the peripheral field to Mi Tang Studio. "

"Great."

Su Tang nodded, her heart a little excited.

She rarely has the opportunity to help Tang Su, but the other party has been helping her. Now she has the opportunity to help Tang Su, she is quite happy, and...

The copyright of all new games of the company in the field of peripherals in the future...

This is great trust.

"..."

Boss Wang looked at the two people facing each other, the smile on his face froze, and his heart was a little bitter.

He just valued the potential of Cangqiang Game Company, and also liked the style of "Plants vs. Zombies: Chinese New Year", so he wanted to cooperate in advance, get familiar with it first, and then have more cooperation in the future... That's all. , how can you think that you can eat a wave of dog food because of this?

He is so difficult.
