Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1116: Prepare for The Summer Promotion Event!

June 22nd, Friday...

“Hmm... that should be enough.”

In the office, Pei Qian looked at the summer promotion event and nodded in satisfaction.

Two days had passed since the opening of the snack market on Wednesday.

Pei Qian had not been there for the past two days.

Not only did he not go, he did not even pay much attention to the information there.

That was because he knew that it would not be cold and deserted even without paying any attention to it!

It would definitely be very popular when it first opened. Therefore, even if he went to understand it, he would only find some information that would make people feel suffocated. It would not help him to lose money.

Thus, Pei Qian decided to let nature take its course. He would think about how to salvage the situation after the popularity of the snack market decreased.

Pei Qian had spent a lot of effort over the past two days to finalize the summer promotion event.

This summer promotional event was not Pei Qian’s invention but the tradition of many foreign companies, especially the United States.

There were some differences in the timing of the various companies. Some were at the end of June, and some were at the beginning of July. However, there was a huge difference.

Finger Games’ summer promotion event was on June 26th, which was next Tuesday.

It was also a tradition to organize preferential activities on Tuesday. The specific origins were no longer obvious. Some said that it was because the television station had been renovated or resting on Tuesday earlier, so there were fewer entertainment activities. Some said that it was because there were fewer people shopping on Tuesday to stimulate consumption.

All in all, choosing to organize a summer promotion event at the end of June was a schedule that Finger Games had long decided on.

What’s more, in order to warm up, Finger Games had already announced the time of the summer promotional event on the official website in advance. However, they had not announced the specific plan for the summer promotional event.

This gave Pei Qian the perfect opportunity to intercept!

To be honest, Pei Qian had spent a lot of money on the previous 515 Games Festival. He had not had enough. In fact, he had felt a little regretful.

Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation had created such a huge scene but ended up with no follow-up. How disappointing!

Pei Qian had thought that Eric would be able to sell the building no matter how hard he worked, right?

Yet, this building had not been sold. How infuriating!

Finger Games did not believe it after burning a wave of money for the 515 Games Festival. That made Pei Qian very anxious.

He wanted to continue burning money, but he did not have a good excuse to convince the system.

Now, the excuse was finally here!

Tengda could do the same!

However, this summer promotion event was very different from the previous 515 Games Festival.

Perhaps it was because they had already burned a huge sum of money previously and Finger Games had not done anything to provoke them for the time being. Thus, the System had more restrictions on the scale and specific methods of burning money this time.

However, this small problem was not difficult for Pei Qian.

He quickly thought of the general approach for this summer promotional event.

First of all, since there were many restrictions in the system, it would be best to focus on GOG, especially in the overseas market, in order to stimulate Finger Games.

After all, domestic players were not very receptive to summer holidays. What’s more, the 515 Games Festival had just been spent crazily. It had only been a month. Many players had not recovered.

It was meaningless to organize a similar event.

Second, it would be best if this summer promotional event could stimulate Finger Games, but it could not scare them.

The money-burning war would only start again if Finger Games felt that they could win by working hard.

The reason why Pei Qian wanted to organize a summer promotion event a weekend in advance was to inform Finger Games in advance.

Finger Games’ summer promotion was definitely out. However, from past experience, their summer promotion would definitely not be very effective without external stimulation.

Therefore, if Pei Qian gave a more exciting summer promotion a weekend in advance, would Finger Games still have the cheek to use the original plan?

He had to come up with a better plan than Tengda!

That way, Pei Qian could consider organizing another round of summer activities after reading Finger Games’ plan on June 26th. Then, he could compare Finger Games’ plan...

Wouldn’t the money be burnt away if they were to go back and forth?

Pei Qian thought about it for a long time. He decided to be more direct in this summer promotional event and not make too much of a show.

The main reason was that they were afraid that they would give too many fancy benefits and make Finger Games dizzy. It would be very troublesome if they did not follow.

It was just like the 515 Game Festival previously. All the activities were basically around “giving it for free”. In the end, Eric was stunned. He could only feel good for a while but not for a long time.

Therefore, it was best to be simple and rough this time. It would be best if Finger Games caught up with them with a ‘bang’ after seeing it.

This summer promotional event revolved around GOG. There were three main aspects:

First of all, GOG’s entire skin was discounted by three to five percent. The specific discount depended on the player’s proficiency in the hero. The player who played more would get 70% off, and the player who played less would get 50% off.

Second, the summer promotion event would last until July 10th. During this period, players would accumulate points in GOG. They could exchange for rare avatars, avatars, expressions, and other small items.

Lastly, it was the overseas market’s promotion of GOG. During the summer promotion event, many operators in the overseas market could carry out activities based on the actual situation of the local market. Tengda would subsidize half of the relevant funds.

Of course, the actual funds and expenses of these activities had to be strictly calculated and verified. There would be no cheating of funds.

Pei Qian thought that Finger Games should be able to afford such a high-level summer promotional event, right?

He was already rather restrained.

It was just a simple discount for the skins and a small reward for spending points.

According to Finger Games’ previous habits,summer promotion event activities would be at a 30 to 50% discount.

Once Tengda offered a 50% to 70% discount, Finger Games would definitely be forced to increase the discount.

Once Finger Games’ specific summer was released on June 26th, Pei Qian could consider launching a second batch of activities to test Finger Games’ bottom line.

All in all, he decided on this summer promotion event for now.

The relevant functions of summer promotion events had long been developed. What he wanted to confirm now was nothing more than a specific system design problem. Pei Qian sent the final plan to Min Jingchao and then waited for Finger Games to give a response.

Tengda’s summer promotional activities will be released tonight. Finger Games would definitely react on Monday and Tuesday after two days of fermenting over the weekend.

Pei Qian opened a new document after settling the summer’s promotional matters.

A commendation letter for Bao Xu’s outstanding employee!

“All departments and subsidiaries of the company:”

“Tengda Corporation is developing steadily and healthily under the joint efforts of all employees. During this process, a group of outstanding employees who worked hard for the company, were happy to contribute, and had outstanding results emerged.”

“During the preparation process of the snack market, Bao Xu of the games department used the game design concept to determine the unique overall style, operation mechanism, and a large number of details of the snack market. This might not be his job but he still worked hard and did his best.”

“This spirit of discarding the sectarian views of the various departments, selfless contributions, and helping each other is worth all employees learning seriously!”

“I hope that Bao Xu will continue to work hard and achieve better results. At the same time, I hope that all the employees in the company will learn from Bao Xu. They will be able to develop thoughts, improve actively, and contribute to the communication between the various departments!”

There was also a signature, time, and company stamp.

Pei Qian had no doubt that Bao Xu would not be able to escape the fate of traveling again as long as this notice was sent to the company’s internal group chat.

Obviously, even though Bao Xu was dangerous, it was still very difficult for him to get first place.

That was because the snack market was not a key project in itself. It could not be compared to projects like Mission and Choice. Bao Xu was not the first person-in-charge even in the snack market. His contribution was only on par with Zhang Yahui and Liang Qingfan.

Thus, Bao Xu would most likely not be the top outstanding employee.

However, the chances of second place were greatly increased!

This notice was equivalent to giving Bao Xu a strong sense of existence in front of all the employees in the company. Google search novelenglish.net . fire(.)net

Most of them only had achievements in their own posts; they would only have cross-departmental achievements when there were collaborations.

However, Bao Xu took the initiative to go to another department to help.

What kind of selflessness was it for an employee of the games department to do his best to help out at the snack market!

Thus, while Bao Xu’s work was not the most outstanding but would be the easiest to remember.

What’s more, Bao Xu’s trip was exactly what everyone wanted. Previously, everyone did not vote for him because they lacked an excuse.

Now that he had an excuse, it would not make any sense if he did not get second place.

Thus, Pei Qian looked at the commendation letter as though he was looking at a printed schedule.

Once he sent it out, Bao Xu’s schedule would most likely be set!

However, Pei Qian did not send the letter immediately. Instead, he fell into a dilemma.

That was because he suddenly realized that this thing might hurt him even more after he wrote this commendation letter!

Once the commendation letter was sent out, the already motivated employees would probably be given another injection of high levels of motivation. The various departments that were already crazily linked would probably become even more crazy.

Then, Boss Pei’s back might be stabbed dozens of times. He might not even be able to tell who stabbed him.

Therefore, would this announcement be a stab in the back for him or for Bao Xu?

Pei Qian pondered for a moment. Wouldn’t it be a loss if he were to swap one for one with Bao Xu?

Bao Xu might be a little hateful because of the snack market but he had been in the games department for so long after all. The danger was far from the other department heads.

Thus, Pei Qian felt a little sympathetic.

“Forget it, forget it. Bao Xu did not make a huge mistake. I’ll let him off this time on account that he’s an old employee and has not caused much trouble.”

“Sigh, I’m too kind!”

“However... while he cannot escape punishment even though he can avoid death.”

“It’s necessary to knock him down in private.”

“Coincidentally, I have reserved a seat at the nameless restaurant tomorrow as it is a Saturday. Let’s have a meal with Bao Xu and print out this commendation letter to scare him. I believe he will definitely restrain himself in the future.”

Pei Qian decided not to make a mountain out of a molehill.

There was no need to hurt others and oneself.

It was better to have a meal with Bao Xu and use this commendation letter to knock him down, so that he could retire in the games department in peace in the future and not interfere in the affairs of the other departments and cause such a bad trend.
