Chapter 1271: GOG skin price increase?

, The fastest update to become the richest man in the latest chapter from the beginning of the game!
On the afternoon of the 23rd, Pei Qian had already returned to Jingzhou.
Because it was still early to get off work, Pei Qian was in business class again, and was not too tired, so he decided to sit in the office for a while to see the work situation of various departments during this time.
Not long after arriving at the office, someone knocked on the door.
Pei Qian looked up and saw Assistant Xin.
"Huh? What's the matter?" Pei Qian asked.
As the Tenda Group grows larger and larger, the role of Assistant Xin in the company is actually constantly changing.
At the beginning, Tenda was just a small company, and many of the daily operations of Pei Qian were assigned to Assistant Xin to be directly responsible, so her job at that stage was indeed an assistant.
However, as Tenda's scale is getting bigger and bigger, the recruitment examination of the human resources department is also on the right track, so whether it is human, administrative, financial, etc., a large professional team has been formed, and these trivial matters are naturally gone. Assistant Xin needs to go and ask again.
As a result, her work naturally turned into the coordination and connection between various departments, as well as higher-level resource allocation issues. In fact, she did the job of the vice president, and the welfare benefits were also the treatment of the vice president.
It's just that Pei Qian used it too smoothly, so her nominal position was still an assistant. Of course, the entire Tenda knew that she was definitely not just an assistant.
Generally speaking, since everyone acquiesces that Mr. Pei has a clear grasp of the ups and downs of the Tengda Group, he will only report on some more important matters.
When Assistant Xin came over this time, there were probably some key things that needed Pei Qian's decision.
Assistant Xin took out a document and handed it over: "President Pei, this is the activity plan for this year's 1024 Digital Festival."
"The event as a whole continues the previous style, with a slight upgrade in welfare."
"However, this year's GOG activities are not the same as before. I think you still need to confirm."
Pei Qian reached out and took the plan: "Huh?"
The 1024 Digital Festival belongs to Tenda's traditional repertoire, and is held every year.
But after all, it’s hard to come up with new ideas every year because of promotional activities.
For most people, tangible discounts are more important than fancy activities, and activities that are too complicated are not good.
Since the response was good in the first year, Pei Qian has used this as a means to spend money on a daily basis, as far as possible in terms of welfare, which is even stronger than last year.
After all, it is already a relatively stable activity, so Pei Qian has not paid attention to it for some time.
The 1024 Digital Festival involves many departments of Tenda. According to the normal process, these departments first formulate their own activity plans, and then summarize them to Assistant Xin.
Now Assistant Xin found that GOG's activities have changed a lot from last year, so he came to ask for instructions.
Pei Qian quickly flipped through the plan and quickly found the location of GOG.
The whole plan contains a lot of words, which makes Pei Qian a little headache.
After all, the 1024 Digital Festival is held every year, and there are always more activities than last year, so gradually the content of the activities has become more and more abundant.
Although Pei Qian has made repeated orders, don’t make the activity so complicated, don’t let players waste too much energy to distinguish how to make it more cost-effective, and don’t play the price discrimination set, but as the activity accumulates, more content is still a must Things to avoid.
The activities of GOG are obviously longer and more complicated than those of other departments.
"What is this Eric?"
"The activity is so complicated, doesn't it seem that your eyes are not sore? I told the people in charge a long time ago that the activity is a bit simpler, and the three pages of content this time look so hard."
"Oh, you are new here and don't know the rules, then it's okay."
Pei Qian felt a little headache when he saw the dense text and terms.
I even wanted to call it back for Eric to rewrite and streamline all the terms of the event.
But after another thought, he dispelled the idea.
Why did I dig Eric?
Isn't it just because of his ability in this area?
If you dig someone out, but don't let him continue his work style, but subconsciously use Tenda's set of things to transform him, what is the point of digging people out?
If Eric really "deteriorated" like everyone else, wouldn't it be blood loss?
So Pei Qian thought for a while, Eric looked out of place compared to the other persons in charge, which was a good thing instead.
This means that Eric still continues the tradition of bashing the street before, and it makes sense to dig him without being assimilated by Tenda.
Thinking of this, Pei Qian didn't say anything, trying to force himself to read it.
"Huh? The price of the active skin doubled?"
Among the many terms, numbers are obviously the most eye-catching, so Pei Qian saw the changes in skin prices at a glance.
The price of GOG skins is consistent: brave skins are given away for free after heroes reach top proficiency, 18 epic skins, 45 legendary skins, and there are also some limited skins, which can be obtained in various ways.
Later, Min Jingchao set up a creative community. All heroes that are officially produced by adopting the player's creativity will be discounted for the first skin, 50% for the second skin, and 20% for the third skin. The time limit is one month from the date of sale effective.
Since then, GOG's skin has fully entered the era of cabbage prices.
And every time they engage in activities, these skins are often discounted. A 50% discount is commonplace, and sometimes even a 30% discount, so that many players feel that skins are so cheap that it is not human not to buy them.
Under such a set of pricing strategies, in fact, the bulk of Tenda's profit lies in the legendary skins and limited skins of some heroes.
The skins of the brave are all free, and the production cost of the skin cannot be recovered. It is entirely for buying and screaming. However, at the request of Pei Qian, the skins of the brave are not made less, and they will not only make one or two because of not making money The paragraph is confused.
Epic skins don’t make a lot of money, and if you use them to subsidize the cost of brave skins, they still basically lose money.
The profit is basically concentrated on the cool legendary skins of some popular heroes and the limited skins during the event.
Although Tenda's activities are very frequent and vigorous, they actually did not affect players' enthusiasm for the first purchase.
Because the interval of these activities is relatively clear, for example, the 1024 Digital Festival is a traditional reserved item. Players all know that activities must be held on this day, and they will wait until this day to buy skins.
Tenda’s strategy is to refund the difference if the skin is discounted within a short period of time. Of course, if the time is longer, the price will not be refunded.
So for players, on the one hand, they can buy at various activity nodes, and on the other hand, it is also because they buy early and enjoy them early. Even if they are more expensive, they can either refund the difference or buy early and enjoy them.
Especially the limited skins for events, because they are all launched during each event, there will be no new events in the short term, and there will be no discounts. The time to make up the price difference has basically passed by the next event, so basically It was sold for 45 yuan and the profit was good.
To put it bluntly, these skins are specially prepared for players who don't care about the price but really like to get new skins in the first place.
They don't care about discounts or discounts, they only care about getting the latest skin the first time and looking comfortable.
The theme skin for the 1024 Digital Festival was already made when Min Jingchao was still there, and it has not been announced, just waiting for the 1024 Digital Festival activities.
The skin theme is "light and darkness", one side is the angel theme that looks bright and justice, and the other side is the dark and evil demon theme.
The subject matter itself is highly playable, and it is easy to make color with some specific heroes, so there must be no problem with the quality of the skin.
The problem is the price.
Pei Qian discovered that the price of the skin has actually increased, from the default cap of 45 yuan to 68 yuan!
Moreover, generally Tenda will have a first week discount for new skins. Although not very high, there is basically a 20% discount, which is 36 yuan.
With such a calculation, the price of the skin at the 1024 Digital Festival this year has almost doubled!
Pei Qian's first reaction was unwilling.
Isn't this a mess!
This skin is sold for all profits. The price is mentioned, how much more money will I make!
The scale of this event is already large, and GOG's activities are synchronized globally. This money is earned, and I have trouble sleeping...
Pei Qian just wanted to tell Assistant Xin to call back the plan for Eric to do it again, but after another thought, he realized the previous problem again.
In the matter of failure, Eric and Zhao Xuming, the golden partner, are professional.
You have to respect the professional opinions of professionals!
Now it is easy to cut the price back, but then there will be no change in the situation of GOG. What is the point of digging Eric and Zhao Xuming by yourself?
Perhaps because of this cut, Eric’s original working ideas will be affected, and he will be fully transformed into Tenda’s working style...
No, no, no way.
Pei Qian felt that he had to support and encourage Eric's ideas.
Although there will be some pressure to make money in the short term, maybe slowly, Eric can really make GOG pornographic?
Of course, it would be too optimistic and unlikely, but a little bit of scolding would make room for ioi to survive. Isn’t that nice?
Thinking of this, Pei Qian decided to spoil Eric this time.
I made this money tearfully, and I hope you will not let me down in the future!
"The plan is not a big problem, just follow this one." Pei Qian handed the plan back.
Assistant Xin nodded and didn't ask more: "Good President Pei."
Today is the 23rd, and the content of the event will be announced in front of the players at midnight on the 24th.
Pei Qian decided to sleep a little late tonight, to see how the players' feedback was, and not to scold him harshly.
Of course, even if they were scolded, it was mostly Eric and Zhao Xuming.
Because since Eric and Zhao Xuming joined, there have been some gossips circulating, but some players do not want to believe that Mr. Pei will dig such two live treasures.
What is there to dig for the defeat? It sounds a bit nonsense.
But in fact the gossip is true...
Pei Qian is quite happy, on the contrary, if Eric and Zhao Xuming's bad reputation at ioi can help GOG, then of course it is very desirable!
...
...
October 24, midnight.
As soon as the event was updated on GOG's official website, Pei Qian immediately clicked in to check.
The name of the event is slightly different from what we saw on the plan. The theme of the plan is "Light and Darkness", but the name of the player-oriented event on the website is "Light Comes".
Maybe it's because "Light and Darkness" is a bit too straightforward and not suitable as the name of the event, while "Light Coming" sounds a little more imposing.
The specific description of the activity seems to be similar in content to the plan that Pei Qian saw before, but the description is quite different.
This is also normal. After all, the internal plan is not the same as the explanation written to the players. The former is definitely relatively concise and straightforward, while the latter requires some textual modification to bring players a kind of politeness. , A sense of respect.
In addition to skins, there are other activities, but these activities are more regular, so Pei Qian directly pulled down and found the relevant content of the new limited skin.
Price, 68 yuan!
Looking at the feedback from the players, it turns out that most people's concerns are mainly on the price of the skin.
And the response was quite intense!
"What's the price of this skin? 68 yuan? It's almost twice as expensive as the previous active skin!"
"Could it be that the skins this time have been made more cool? Oh, it seems that these skins have some exclusive activities in the game, but these activities are not really rewards! I spend money to buy a liver activity opportunity? are you crazy!"
"It's really unreasonable. Isn't the GOG skin capped at 45 yuan? Haven't I heard that there are more advanced skins on the legendary skin?"
"Then you see it now."
"If the skin is of good quality, it will be more expensive."
"That's not what I said! If the skin adds some special effects and it sells for double the price, wouldn't it be the same as the ioi side? The price increase on the ioi side has already been resisted. Isn't it bad enough to be scolded? Why has GOG started to play this set?"
"That is, add some special effects to double the price? It's really ugly!"
"You really guessed it right, are you familiar with it? This is the ioi set of operations! The gossip has already said that the GOG project team dug up Eric, the original ioi leader, and now I do some ioi operations. Is it normal?"
"Wipe! Isn't that a fake melon? Everything was fine in the original GOG project team. Why was it digging out Eric? If it wasn't for him, Ioi could be so fast?"
"It's really not a fake melon. Many channels have verified it. Eric was indeed poached by Tenda!"
"This is going to die!"
Many players can't calm down, even a little angry.
The skin price increase is only one of the reasons, and the more important thing is that I don’t trust Eric at all.
Originally, there have been gossips on the Internet about Eric taking over as the head of GOG, but most of the players didn't believe it and didn't even pay much attention.
Because subconsciously feel that this is nonsense?
Digging this person, UU reading www.uukanshu.com for fear that your company is not cold enough fast?
President Pei must know this level of digging.
With President Pei's wise martial arts, how could he do such a foolish trick that the players feel unreliable?
But after the 1024 Digital Festival came out, players began to discuss this matter again.
After discussion, I found that this melon seems to be real!
There are many channels to verify each other, the person in charge of GOG has indeed changed!
Considering Ioi's previous series of show operations and Eric's not-so-famous reputation among the player community, coupled with the fuse of this skin price increase, this contradiction was immediately inspired.
There are even many players protesting on the forum, while calling on everyone not to buy skins and use practical actions to resist.
As long as the official sees that after the players resist, the sales of the skin cannot meet expectations, it will naturally return the skin to the normal price!
