As the platform team competition comes to an end.
The most popular CSGO-related topic in the past few days at the end of December was the college competition mentioned by Lu Yiming in the live broadcast room.
Qualification for Major Qualifiers.
Even the professional teams are very excited.
The day Jiang Yuanming returned to China, he received a call from the company's front desk.
Then there was no time to rest.
I directly booked the latest flight and returned to Star City.
In front of the company.
Wang Jiming has been waiting for a long time.
When he saw Jiang Yuanming, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Mr. Jiang! People have been arranged to the conference room! These are the information you want, Mr. Jiang!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanming nodded.
After taking the file into his hands, he looked through the contents while walking.
The two entered the company side by side.
Jiang Yuanming did not go directly to the conference room.
Instead, he returned to his office first.
The people who came this time were representatives of the current ten domestic Internet cafe chains.
Including well-known e-sports Internet cafe brands such as Wangyu, Jela, and Alvin.
The current active users of the platform have exceeded 300,000.
It has reached saturation to a certain extent.
Looking for a breakthrough point is something Jiang Yuanming has been thinking about recently.
Until a conversation with Lu Yiming before going abroad.
He decided to use the oldest promotion model.
That is to rely on offline Internet cafes to start event promotion.
The Internet wave has spawned an army of Internet cafes, and surfing the Internet is an exclusive memory for those born in the 1980s and 1990s.
At that time, game promotion was all offline.
Including but not limited to free Internet access and free drinks and instant noodles.
This promotion continues to this day.
It's just replaced with reward Internet fees or Internet cafe privileges.
From the beginning, it was used by game manufacturers to burn money, but now it has become a marketing tool for Internet cafes.
For example, the Alliance offers five kills to get free Internet fees, and the Pabo machine offers free Internet fees for eating chicken. These nationally unified Internet cafe activities are all activities actively carried out by Internet cafe owners.
There is no cost to the game manufacturer at all.
But CSGO is different.
The game is not popular enough for these bosses to voluntarily promote it.
If Jiang Yuanming wants to promote it on a large scale, he needs to spend real money.
At this time, he read this information.
These are the quotes given by several chain Internet cafes.
Together, they have more than 3,400 offline Internet cafes across the country.
The largest chain store among them is Wangyu.
Currently there are a thousand stores across the country.
They also offered the highest price.
According to the results of discussions with Lu Yiming.
This event is divided into three benefits.
The first and most basic thing is Internet benefits.
When playing CSGO on the Internet cafe login platform, the game time in the ladder ranking can be deducted from the Internet fee.
For example, if you play for two hours, and the duration of the ranked game is one hour, you can deduct one hour of the Internet fee.
The limit is five free hours a day.
Theoretically speaking.
According to the average price of these Internet cafes, it is eight yuan an hour. If you play six hours a day without interruption, the starting price of surfing the Internet may only be one hour.
The other one is the special reward section.
Platform members can get the number of draws by ranking on the ladder.
The number of draws can be drawn in the military supply section of the platform.
This munitions section is the same as that of Wu E.
It's just that Lu Yiming's military supply system cannot conduct lottery draws through recharge.
There is a chance to get rewards ranging from boxes worth a few cents to jewelry worth tens of thousands of yuan.
Member users can win up to five draws through games every week.
The plan is to get Internet cafe privileges.
Internet cafe users can qualify for five weekly draws just like members.
If you are a member.
You can get it ten times.
What is the concept of ten draws?
What stood out about the military supplies that Lu Yiming asked Jiang Yuanming to get was his conscience.
A membership only costs a dozen yuan a month.
But the twenty draws obtained every four weeks.
According to Lu Yiming's requirements, the cheapest items are stickers worth 50 cents and weapon boxes worth 50 cents.
This means monthly memberships for as long as they remain active.
The minimum guarantee is that you will get ten yuan back.
It can be said that all monthly membership income is invested in this sector.
Lu Yiming still has to lose tens or millions every month.
He can really say that this platform will not make money.
This is also the reason why the membership payment rate of the current platform is high. The main focus is to harvest Lu Yiming's wool, and the income can basically account for one-third of the platform users.
Everyone has to praise Lu Yiming online for being a charitable anchor!
The third benefit is the Internet Cafe League that will be online from February.
The competition is divided into Master Group and Legend Group.
A strong team.
You can support yourself through this league.
It is divided into regional auditions and national finals.
The regional competition is divided into provinces, and the provincial quarter champion team can receive a cash prize of RMB 80,000.
The runner-up and third runner-up were respectively 40,000 and 20,000.
The legendary group bonus is increased by 20%.
35 provinces across the country.
Except for Sakura Province, which is unable to cooperate due to special reasons.
This means that the bonus cost per quarter is as high as almost 10 million.
There are three quarterly competitions in a year.
The investment here alone is as high as 30 million.
Plus the final quarter for the national finals.
The championship reward here is one million.
The first runner-up and the third runner-up are respectively 400,000 and 200,000.
There is no distinction between the gold group and the legendary group here.
Avoid the situation where you have the strength of the legendary group but fish in the gold group.
As for what some might say that's unfair.
Feel sorry!
E-sports dish is the original sin.
However, it is possible to travel for free.
The plan is to hold a large-scale offline event.
at this time.
Jiang Yuanming looked at the quotes from several lions on the information.
He immediately laughed and shook his head and said: "CSGO is still a low-level game! If the alliance or PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds want to hold such a large-scale event, they probably have to say thank you to each other even if they are paying for it!"
Wang Jiming sat in front of Jiang Yuanming's desk.
Wen Sheng also nodded in agreement.
According to the plan.
In the early stage, they want to select more than 500 Internet cafes across the country to cooperate.
There are currently 36 first-tier cities and 237 second-tier cities across the country.
There are four in first-tier cities and two in second-tier cities.
Then he said with a worried face: "If we do it this way! It will cost at least more than 30 million yuan a month, and almost 400 million yuan a year. Will Mr. Lu and Mr. Lu agree?"
The price quoted by chain Internet cafes here ranges from 40,000 to 80,000.
Among them, Wangyu’s price is the highest.
A family in a first-tier city costs 80,000 yuan.
Is 80,000 yuan a month expensive?
At least from the point of view of these Internet cafes, it’s not expensive.
Even if the event is so popular that the Internet is full of people, they may even lose money because of this event.
Like an Internet cafe in a first-tier city.
Labor rent, equipment depreciation, etc.
The monthly expenses are over 100,000.
Hearing this, Jiang Yuanming waved his hand and said, "I don't know, Mr. Lu! Our Mr. Lu must agree. What I'm worried about is that the more than 600 Mr. Lu will be too few!"
More than 600 Internet cafes.
Each household has an average of 140 devices.
More than 80,000 pieces of equipment.
According to normal conditions in a day, one piece of equipment can replace two waves of people.
The game can provide more than 100,000 daily active players, of which old players account for two-thirds, and the number of new players attracted by the activities is only 40,000 to 50,000 at most.
at this time.
Jiang Yuanming dialed Lu Yiming's number.
Reported on the current situation.
And Lu Yiming's reaction was not what Jiang Yuanming expected.
"More than six hundred? That's less! Let's double that!"
Jiang Yuanming did not open the door.
But Wang Jiming could hear it.
The corners of his mouth twitched when he heard the sound.
In one sentence, the revenue went from more than 30 million to 60 or 70 million a month.
He was sure that Mr. Lu would have a headache when he heard this.
This event is jointly funded by the platform and Perfect World.
The fee is 55 yuan.
at this time.
He dialed Lu Zhen's phone number.
After reporting quietly.
Lu Zhenshi exclaimed: "What! Eight hundred million! Where did I get the eight hundred million? Didn't I say that we agreed on a maximum of four hundred million? Even for these two hundred million, I had to hold a meeting with the board of directors for three days. It will be approved after a meeting. Is Mr. Lu in front of you now? I want to talk to Mr. Lu!"
soon.
The two parties have a tacit understanding of each other's phone calls.
Lu Yiming and Lu Zhen chatted in this weird way.
"Mr. Lu! Eight hundred million a year is a bit too exaggerated, isn't it? Let's get more than 500 people to test the water in the first year! It's not like you don't understand my situation. I'm under a lot of pressure from the board of directors! What's to come? There are also campus competitions that cost money. It’s easy to spend money but hard to make money these days! Mr. Lu, you have to be considerate of us!"
"Mr. Lu! I know it's difficult for you! But if you want to hold activities, make it more lively! Only four stores in a first-tier city are too few! Even I think eight stores are too few! According to my idea"
The words were not finished.
Lu Zhen interrupted directly: "Okay! Mr. Lu, please stop talking! I suddenly feel that doubling it is good! Just arrange it according to your idea! The total is 800 million a year, right! Just follow this arrangement Let them talk! I’m going to hang up now and go to the board meeting!”
Lu Zhen was worried about letting Lu Yiming continue talking.
From 800 million a year to 1.6 billion a year.
The current investment of 800 million is already extremely exaggerated.
However, there is no way to regain blood. It would be enough if a few local tycoon brands can sponsor the event. The premise is that this event must be popular enough.
There is Lu Yiming, the current number one person in the D-sound game area.
In addition, he is a shareholder of D sound.
I believe the heat won't be too bad.
Originally, he deceived the board of directors into agreeing to spend 200 million yuan on the idea that he could at least get his money back.
at this time.
He has to think about how to continue to cheat.
Only then can the board of directors be willing to spend the remaining 200 million.
As for Lu Yiming, he currently doesn't have enough money.
But it’s easy to handle.
The money I borrowed previously has been repaid.
Just continue to take the share loan from ByteDance.
As the saying goes, it doesn't hurt if you sell your child. Lu Yiming doesn't care at all about the shares that are directly given away by this system.
It can be said that ByteDance's shares can increase in value by one billion.
It’s not as happy as having 10,000 more users on the gaming platform.
soon.
The next day, Jiang Yuanming reached an agreement and signed a contract with the persons in charge of these chain Internet cafes.
There is no discount on price.
But use Lu Yiming’s traffic as a plus. In addition, we have to go to 200 Internet cafes in third-tier cities to participate in the activities.
In total, there are 1,500 Internet cafes across the country.
The total is over two hundred thousand devices.
The next day.
That's New Year's Day.
Lu Yiming started the live broadcast.
First, the background change was discovered by Leeuwenhoek in the live broadcast room.
Watch the barrage.
Lu Yiming smiled and picked up the camera to show the layout of the room to the water friends and said: "You are really sharp-eyed! It is still too cold in Funan in winter, so I took my whole family to spend the winter in Sanya, and we will go back in the spring after the new year!"
When I traveled to Sanya before.
Lu Yiming thought about coming here to spend the winter in the future.
The plan is to buy a large flat in the city center.
Although the beach and villas may feel more luxurious and romantic, after living there, you know that living by the sea is really not that comfortable.
The sound of the waves and the fishy smell of the sea breeze.
These are the realities that need to be faced after the romantic filter is removed.
I haven’t looked at the house yet.
Now he's staying in a hotel suite.
My parents and grandma live next door.
There are a total of six suites on the floor where Lu Yiming stayed.
It was all taken care of by him.
My aunt and uncle will also come over in the next few days.
Since Lu Yiming became rich, although many relatives came to borrow money, his uncle and aunt never came to him.
I don’t know what the psychology is.
Lu Yiming hoped that they could find him, but also felt that it was best not to have this happen.
Although the story of chickens and dogs ascending to heaven may seem like a funny story.
But when your own conditions permit.
Help the loved ones around you to a limited extent.
Not to the point where it's understandable.
But Lu Yiming felt that he could still help with things that were easy to do.
For example, starting a business requires funds and getting married requires buying a house.
Lu Yiming was still willing to make arrangements for several brothers.
Relying on the most difficult period before his rebirth, although his parents had not been in contact with each other for a long time because of his grandma's affairs, these brothers still secretly lent money to Lu Yiming in private.
Not much money.
But there is also a sense of affection here.
at this time.
Lu Yiming started the broadcast and interacted with water friends for a while.
Then the matter about the Internet cafe competition was brought up.
After learning the details of the event.
The fans in the live broadcast room were excited.
【Fuck! Doesn’t this mean that the daily Internet fee is only a few yuan? 】
[Woooooo~ Why don’t you start earlier! I just spent five hundred dollars at the Internet cafe downstairs at home yesterday! 】
[Ten extra draws? At the same time, if the team competition is played in an Internet cafe, will there be an extra number of draws? Is the activity so intense? 】
【take off! There is a net fish downstairs in my house! 】
[Master Sanhe is waiting for the coordinates to be announced! 】
[Is Mr. Lu going to vigorously promote CSGO? Bros! Great news! Hurry up and stock up on jewelry! Prices are expected to take off next year! 】
【.】
Very few CSGO players choose to go to Internet cafes to play.
Mainly the environment affects the performance.
Unlike other games, it does not require much headphones and environment.
In addition, the current consumption in Internet cafes is relatively high.
It's really not as cost-effective as playing at home.
But with this activity, I believe that more people will be willing to go to Internet cafes to play. At the same time, some players of other FPS games may choose to change games when they see the intensity of Internet cafe activities and a certain CSGO craze atmosphere. Maybe.
This has given V Club a wedding dress to a certain extent.
But currently Lu Yiming holds shares in V Company.
Don't worry so much about your own business.
And naturally there are two.
Maybe one day the V society’s surname will be Lu~ (End of this chapter)
