Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1200: Finally Got The Commission

Obviously, even though Dawn Games platform had spent a lot of money on publicity and had been scolded, it was still not perfect because of the attention and popularity.

This full commission was really difficult to get.

Pei Qian thought that it would be useless even if he were to do it himself.

Meng Chang had to think of something on his own.

However, no matter what, the 98,000 yuan commission was already equivalent to Meng Chang’s base salary for more than three years. It was not bad.

Pei Qian handed the laptop over. “Yes, not bad. You’re finally enlightened! You’ve found the right way to get the commission!”

Meng Chang took the computer and took a look. He could not help but tremble with excitement when he saw the number 98,000 yuan.

It was exactly as he had expected!

After several months of searching and countless days and nights of deep thought, he finally achieved something.

Previously, Meng Chang had been thinking why Boss Pei wanted him to use reverse publicity to get a commission.

He understood it later on. Obviously, it was to let him learn the Pei family’s publicity method and achieve a better publicity effect through reverse publicity.

On the other hand, Meng Chang recalled the reasons why his previous publicity plans had all failed. On one hand, it was because he was not good at learning and did not have enough understanding of the situation of the various projects. On the other hand, Boss Pei must have been behind it.

Obviously, Boss Pei realized that Meng Chang did not publicize the project according to the Pei Family’s publicity method. Instead, he planned for the project to die. He would choose the right time and gently blow up the popularity that he had buried previously without leaving a trace.

Boss Pei often chose the end of the month to punish Meng Chang.

Thus, the project was still popular. Boss Pei still achieved his goal, but Meng Chang could not get a commission.

However, now that Meng Chang had already figured out the Pei family’s publicity method, he naturally had to blow up the project after completing the last step. Boss Pei would not interfere anymore.

Meng Chang felt that if he did not take the last step and did not turn the accumulated popularity and controversies into actual publicity effect, Boss Pei would definitely take this step and make the project popular.

Therefore, Meng Chang had to do the entire set and practice the Pei Family’s publicity method from beginning to end, including the final detonation segment. That was because he would be fulfilling Boss Pei’s requirements. He would not cause Boss Pei trouble and would feel more at ease with the commission.

Now, Boss Pei was praising Meng Chang in person, saying that he had finally figured things out and found the right way to get the commission. This was no longer a hint but a clear indication.

He had to do publicity in the correct way in the future!

98,000 yuan.

Meng Chang could not remember how long it had been since he had seen so much money.

That was tough!

Meng Chang did not have any complaints even though he had only gotten half of the commission. That was because he knew very well that his Pei Family’s publicity method was not particularly proficient. There were still many areas that needed to be improved and improved.

“Thank you for your guidance, Boss Pei!”

“I didn’t understand at first. I blamed you wrongly. I’m very sorry!”

Meng Chang handed his laptop back and thanked him profusely.

Pei Qian smiled and waved his hand. “No need, no need. We’re working together. We’ll help each other out.”

“In that case, the publicity work for this month will come to a perfect end. You don’t have to worry about the follow-up on Dawn Games platform.”

“Come over next week. I’ll arrange the latest publicity plan for you.”

Meng Chang nodded excitedly. “Alright, Boss Pei!”

…

Meng Chang became elated after leaving Boss Pei’s office.

This feeling was really nice!

In fact, after he understood the details of the Pei family’s publicity method, he had also compared his previous publicity method with the Pei family’s publicity method.

In the end, he realized that he was really inferior in all aspects!

He admitted defeat.

Meng Chang’s previous publicity method was just one word: freeload! He had to freeload on any hot topic. He had to create hot topics even if there were no hot topics. In short, he had to spend money crazily around a hot topic. He would always be able to attract people’s attention.

Previously, Meng Chang thought that this was the best marketing plan in the Internet era.

After all, in the Internet age, the most precious thing was always attention. A plan that could attract a lot of attention was definitely a good plan, right?

However, Meng Chang realized that he was completely wrong after learning the Pei family’s publicity method.

The popularity that he had obtained from his publicity plan was fake. The wind would blow away.

On the other hand, the popularity that Pei’s publicity method snatched was real. These classic marketing plans could even be recorded in textbooks and would still be discussed enthusiastically many years later!

On top of that, Meng Chang had only paid attention to marketing and not products in the past. Thus, he had burned a lot of money and ended up feeling lonely.

On the other hand, Boss Pei was not only much better at marketing, but he could also produce high-quality products.

How could he have won?

He could only say that he had lost completely.

Meng Chang’s publicity plan previously might have found popularity but he still felt a sense of uneasiness in the deepest part of his heart. He might be constantly convincing himself but what was fake was fake and could not be real.

When a person did something wrong, even though he knew that it was wrong, he would think of all sorts of excuses to convince himself for the sake of money and benefits. Sometimes, he would feel that he had been convinced and accepted this matter. However, the wandering feeling in his heart would still linger in his heart from time to time.

Now, Meng Chang was at ease with this commission.

That was because he felt that what he did with the Pei Family’s publicity method was completely worthy of the 100,000 yuan commission.

Of course, there was still one last step. He had to release this video and draw a perfect end to the Pei Family’s publicity method this time.

Come to think of it, Boss Pei must be looking forward to seeing his own results, right?

September 1st, Saturday…

Yan Qi did not go to work today. He was resting normally.

The Blade of the Empire had been developed. There were no bugs after it was released. It was operating normally. Naturally, the project team had no reason to work overtime.

However, Yan Qi’s worries did not lessen at all. Instead, they became stronger.

That was because he was counting the days. In another week, the Blade of the Empire would probably be taken off the shelves along with other games on the platform.

The first batch of games that were released was basically on the verge of being taken off the shelves. The reason why they were struggling until now was that players were still keeping them to find bugs.

Once the bug-hunting activity ended, many angry gamers would incite the game to die out at the speed of light.

Other games would probably not be spared as well.

The only way was to extend the search for bugs or to open more of them. However, the problem was that the games on the platform did not have any malignant bugs to begin with! If players could not find bugs after searching once, would they look for more next time? Would the activities still attract players?

Probably not.

Previously, Dawn Games platform had comforted the representatives of the various companies in the group chat, asking everyone to calm down. This matter would definitely be resolved. However, there was still no news even though it was already the weekend.

Probably not.

Yan Qi was a little melancholic.

This bug-finding activity had indeed brought a large number of players to the Blade of the Empire. In fact, the game’s servers had been full during the early stages of the game’s operations. The popularity had far exceeded Yan Qi’s expectations. However, the key was that this popularity could not last at all!

No matter how popular the game was in the short term, it would be taken down very quickly. What was the use? They had worked so hard to create a game, but it was now a one-off sale. That was too inappropriate.

Yan Qi struggled for a long time but still could not think of any way to break out of the situation. He could only sigh and let nature take its course.

He opened Aili Island’s website and scrolled through the videos.

“Eh? Teacher Qiao has a new update?”

As a game designer, Yan Qi loved watching Teacher Qiao’s videos.

That was because they would always be able to learn new knowledge and gain new inspirations through Teacher Qiao’s analysis of Tengda Games’ videos!

Boss Pei’s game design idea was unconstrained and unconstrained. Ordinary people would not be able to follow it and would not be able to understand it. However, it was very helpful to be able to understand it a little through Teacher Qiao’s interpretation.

“Eh? It’s just a repost.”

Yan Qi was a little disappointed. He had thought that Teacher Qiao had updated the video. In the end, it was just a video that was shared by someone else.

The other fans were obviously very disappointed as well and urged him to update. However, Teacher Qiao obviously did not intend to be caught alive in the comments section.

At first, Yan Qi did not want to watch it. After all, many of the UP Master’s videos were shared transactions. They were just worldly. The quality of the videos that were shared was uneven. They might not be worth watching.

However, Yan Qi clicked on it without any hesitation after seeing the title of the video.

‘Dawn Games platform: The Trial of Every Player’s Soul’!

Yan Qi was very surprised and curious when he saw this title.

A UP Master had actually noticed the situation on Dawn Games platform and made a video interpretation?

Dawn Games platform was a new platform, but it had been very popular recently. It was not surprising that there was an interpretation video.

What surprised Yan Qi was that the title of this video was too ridiculous!

How did he end up with the ‘The Trial of Every Player’s Soul’?

This phrase was too heavy!

However, it was because this title was a little exaggerated that it was shared by Teacher Qiao. Thus, Yan Qi clicked on it out of curiosity.

The author of the video was’ Young Master Tian ‘. The editing of the video looked very good. It was made using some material from Dawn Games platform. It matched perfectly with the beauty explanation.

The only problem was that this Young Master Tian did not use his own voice. Instead, he used AEEIS artificial intelligence to automatically generate the entire audio!

After constant updating and iteration of the artificial intelligence laboratory, AEEIS’s artificial intelligence had been optimized compared to the initial version. For example, its speech has become smoother, its sentences more reasonable, and so on.

Of course, AEEIS still had the original neutral mechanical voice. The cheap and seemingly human intelligence mocking style was retained.

This style always made people subconsciously feel that it seemed to have its own ideas. Thus, this video seemed to be made by AEEIS itself.
