Chapter 424: Ruthless Man
"Let's follow the normal procedures for the franchise. After all, it's also a source of income and promotion. Let's do some activities and give away physical game gift boxes, but keep it within 300 sets. As a limited collector's edition, I think we can add posters and random single discs as gifts. When the time comes, keep 100 sets here and give the rest to Internet cafes for activities!"
Although given the current popularity, he would definitely make a lot of money by releasing game discs, but Zheng Xiuheng gave up the idea. It's not that he wanted fame or something, but he already had plans to release a music album of "Deemo". If he did this continuously, it would inevitably attract a wave of black fans. Although this is not that terrible, with the current reputation of "Deemo", Zheng Xiuheng is not in a hurry at all. He just wants to continue like this and earn enough reputation. When the sequel is released, he will obviously get better results.
The most important thing is that scarcity makes things valuable. I believe that if this trend continues, the topic of purchasing the physical collector's edition of "Deemo" will appear on various social networking sites for a long time.
The most important point is that selling activation codes online and selling physical discs require completely different cost investments. For example, if you buy an activation code online for 4,000 yuan, after deducting the 5% handling fee of the payment platform, not counting other factors such as advertising, game production costs, and future taxes, you will actually receive 95%.
But if it's sold offline, with all the costs and circulation fees added up, it will be difficult to make a big profit unless the price is very high. And if it's a physical disc, the purchasing group will probably only be die-hard fans, or people who love the game so much that they buy it as a collection. It's impossible to be as terrifying as online sales now, probably one-tenth is enough.
Of course, many of these things were analyzed for him by Han Zhenyu. If he really wanted to squeeze out all the potential value, that would be fine, but his accumulated good reputation would probably suffer a lot of damage. For greater benefits, reputation and other things could be thrown away at any time, but if it was just a small profit, it would not be worth it.
"By the way, after it's finished, send fifty sets to CJ Network. After all, CJ Network helped a lot with the promotion this time!"
"Ahem, no problem!"
"etc!"
Zheng Xiuheng, who was sitting on a chair, glanced at Cui Minxi opposite him and asked with a puzzled expression: "Why do you look so weird? What happened between you and CJ Network?"
"No, no, you must have seen it wrong!" Choi Min-hee waved his hands hurriedly, and it was obvious from the look on his face that he had something to hide.
Zheng Xiuheng looked at him suspiciously and found that this guy was really weird and must be hiding something. Just when he wanted to ask further questions.
"Zheng Xiuheng, you are in the company!"
The familiar voice made Zheng Xiuheng shudder violently. Looking at Cui Minxi who was smiling awkwardly across from him, Zheng Xiuheng gritted his teeth and asked, "Did you tell her I was here?"
"Ha! Ha! Executive Director Li has helped us so much. I think it's a good idea to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with CJ Network. I think at this time, as a boss, you should sacrifice a little bit of lust... ahem, as a boss, you have the obligation to communicate with your partners and establish further..."
"Bang!"
"Ah, what are you...ah!"
Choi Min-hee was about to get angry when Jung Soo-hyung hit her with his folder. But when she saw Jung Soo-hyung grabbing the water cup next to her, she immediately yelled and squatted under the table, muttering to herself, "I'm not afraid of you, I'm just letting you go because I was the one who told Lee Yoo-mi!"
Zheng Xiuheng originally wanted to teach Cui Minxi a lesson and let him understand what the boss's majesty is like, but unfortunately, the company gate is not far from this location. After all, you can't expect a studio with less than ten people to be large in scale. You know, normal meetings are just a bunch of people holding chairs and sitting around Cui Minxi's desk.
So when Zheng Xiuheng was preparing to take action, Li Roumei, who was wearing a white women's suit and had a ponytail, and looked heroic and beautiful, had already put her right hand on Zheng Xiuheng's shoulder.
"call!"
With a long sigh, Zheng Xiuheng turned his head helplessly and immediately met Li Roumei who was looking at him with her head tilted to the side and smiling.
With the idea of dismembering Choi Min-hee, Zheng Xiuheng could only leave the company with Li Youmei amid the gossiping eyes of other employees.
Cui Minxi waited for a long time before carefully sticking his head out from under the table. He was not very afraid of Zheng Xiuheng before, but since he learned about the boss's past, he would be pretending to be afraid. Anyway, when Zheng Xiuheng glared at him, Cui Minxi felt like he was going to the hospital.
Of course, it could also be that during the time at Hengshou Credit, his memory was too vivid. Even the terrorist with the afro, Jin Guanglu, was respectful in front of Zheng Xiuheng. Cui Minxi was not an idiot, so he could naturally sense what was going on.
Although he was afraid, Choi Min-hee cared more about the company and the game , so when Lee Yoo-mi asked him for help, he was ready to die.
"Lucky boy!"
A junior who was not far away looked at Cui Minxi's excitement and couldn't help but said, "Senior, let's take a look at your wallet. I saw Boss Zheng Xiuheng took out a stack of money when he left. It looked like a lot..."
"Nani!"
"Tell me where you want to go. You can have fun today, and then... don't call me every day, please!" Zheng Xiuheng shouted at Lee Yoo Mi while driving. He really couldn't stand it anymore. Not to mention anything else, even Han Ga In, who was always gentle and considerate, and only occasionally a bit sinister, suspected that he had found a secret girlfriend again. Although the facts were almost the same, it was definitely not Lee Yoo Mi.
Since even the beautiful sister was suspicious, one can imagine what the cheap cousin was thinking.
But Li Roumei doesn't care about those things, nor is it possible for her to care. She just does what she wants to do, and it has always been like this.
"Oh, you heartless man, how could you do this to me!"
"Hey, stop being crazy, or I'll kick you out of the car. I tolerate you because I'm grateful to you. If you keep being annoying, I'll really get mad!" Zheng Xiuheng looked at Lee Yoomi who was about to enter Korean drama mode again. He had had enough. This neurotic young lady was really noisy. If it weren't for the release of "Deemo" this time, Lee Yoomi did help a lot, especially the promotion in CJ game media and Internet cafes when it was first released. She basically did it for Zheng Xiuheng for free. Internally, they just said there was no franchise fee.
So Zheng Xiuheng was indeed grateful to her, but that didn't mean he was really willing to marry her. And until now, Zheng Xiuheng still couldn't figure out what Li Youmei was trying to do. Zheng Xiuheng thought that she might have fallen in love with him, but it didn't seem like that.
Lee Yoomi, who had been wearing the expression of a Korean drama heroine with a miserable heart, sat up straight in an instant, then secretly glanced at Jung Soo-heng, rolled her big eyes, and then said very seriously: "Okay, I won't do that anymore!"
Zheng Xiuheng felt like he had punched cotton. The other person is not like that anymore, so what else do you want?
"Tell me the truth, I just can't figure out what you want to do. You call me several times a day. What do you want? I don't think even husband and wife or relatives would contact each other like this, right?" Zheng Xiuheng didn't want to play hide-and-seek with this guy anymore. Compared with her family background, Zheng Xiuheng cared more about what she wanted to do. Excluding the narcissistic idea of falling in love with him, Zheng Xiuheng didn't believe that Li Roumei was crazy and would help him without asking for anything in return.
Li Roumei pursed her lips, turned around, looked at Zheng Xiuheng, and replied with a playful expression: "Okay, since you must know, then I will tell you!"
"Speak!"
"I want you to teach me!"
"ah?"
"Teach me how to puncture a tire with a coin!"
“Squeak!”
The car suddenly stopped in the middle of the road. Fortunately, the traffic conditions here were very good. At Li Youmei's request, the two were driving out of Seoul.
Due to inertia, Li Roumei's body also rushed forward, and she pulled the seat belt back, her expression suddenly became angry.
Zheng Xiuheng, who was standing next to him, instantly turned his expression into a dead face that had not changed for a long time. After about three seconds, he turned his head and looked at the angry Li Roumei, and said calmly: "Are you kidding me?"
"Ah? Why would I tease you? I'm serious, I really want to learn it!" Li Roumei put away her angry expression, and as if acting like a spoiled child, she pulled Zheng Xiuheng's sleeve and shook it.
"call!"
With a long sigh, Zheng Xiuheng looked at Li Roumei very seriously and said, "You should know what your father and I said when we met last time. First of all, we are not people of the same level, at least not now. I am very grateful for your help, and I know that you have no bad intentions, but our relationship is really not that good. At best, it is just the level of ordinary friends!"
"I'm not rejecting you, but I don't understand what you're thinking or what you want. You can't still be thanking me for saving you last time, right?"
"So now I'm asking you again, if you don't tell the truth, I'm going to leave you there!"
Li Roumei was stunned, her mouth slightly opened, and she asked in a daze, "You are not serious, are you?"
Zheng Xiuheng nodded and said, "I am serious. Didn't you just say that I am a ruthless man? You are right about this. I am really ruthless!"
This time it was Li Roumei's turn to have a dark face, and she looked a little aggrieved.
"Just tell me, really. It's like interrogating a criminal. I haven't done anything wrong. I just want to help you. First of all, it's what my aunt told me to do. Besides, you saved me, so shouldn't I thank you? Also, I'm very curious about you. I'm really, really curious. You must have some identity that I don't know about. How can an ordinary person be so powerful!"
