To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 738 Spying on Intelligence

Pei Qian is very envious of Eric's "achievements" in the past few months.

Obviously, they have been burning money, but after burning for a long time, let alone making money or grabbing market share, they didn't even make a fuss. It can be said that the burning was silent.

This kind of realm is far beyond Pei Qian's reach.

Pei Qian did have the idea of ​​poaching Eric, but this idea was quickly dispelled.

Can a person who can reach the top level in a multinational company be an idiot with nothing?

The odds are actually pretty low.

Then why did Eric fail miserably after he came to China to take charge of the ioi national server?

Pei Qian felt that this probably had nothing to do with his personal ability, but mainly depended on the current market situation.

The current situation of the ioi national server is already a little bit hard to save.

When Shangyang Games operated the ioi national server, wasn't it also beaten up by GOG?Even Pei Qian rolled up his sleeves, and Lin Wan and Ye Zhizhou racked their brains and tried their best to launch a series of marketing activities, but in the end it was still useless.

The root cause of the failure is that the game ioi itself has lagged behind GOG, and GOG has already occupied most of the domestic market share. In this case, no matter how good the marketing plan is, it cannot change fate.

This cannot be roughly attributed to Eric's inability.

What if Eric's suppressed energy is released after being dug out and becomes uncontrollable?

Besides, Eric is a high-level executive of a multinational company. In terms of wages, shares, non-compete agreements, cultural background, etc., Dayak Company has an absolute advantage, and the possibility of poaching is extremely low.

Therefore, Pei Qian did not intend to poach people, but had another plan.

Eric is just no longer in charge of the ioi national server. With his qualifications and status, it is impossible for him to be beaten to the end after he returns. He will still be a senior executive of Dayak, and he still has a high level of confidence in the operation of ioi. The right to speak.

When he goes back this time, he will definitely report to the senior management of Dayak Company, and he may also be held accountable.

No matter what, Eric will definitely report all the situations during the period when he was in charge of the ioi national server, including the information collected from GOG and Tenda.

In this way, isn't Eric the equivalent of a messenger between Pei Qian and Dayak's senior management?

Before Eric left, he made a special trip to Jingzhou and went to the GPL league venue to take photos frantically. Obviously, he was collecting information and using it as a bargaining chip for his comeback.

The richer and more detailed the information he collects from Tenda Group and GOG promotion, the more he can reduce his responsibility, and even influence the decision-making of Dayak's senior management.

Pei Qian thought, since this is the case, why not use Eric to help him pass some information to Dayak's senior management?

Now he is worrying about Dayak's belated awareness.

Not to mention the domestic market, the ioi national server is almost cold, and the few remaining players are still losing every day; the overseas market GOG is also advancing by leaps and bounds, if Pei Qian didn't deliberately divide half of the players from Shangyang Games If the expansion speed is slowed down, the situation of overseas ioi should not be optimistic.

From Pei Qian's point of view, the situation of ioi is already very dangerous, which makes him very worried.

But even so, Dayak was still unresponsive and did not give any reliable solutions.

In the final analysis, it was because Dayak Company was too arrogant and looked down on Tengda, a "small company" in China, just like Eric when he first came to Jingzhou.

The difference is that Eric has been beaten soberly, but the executives of Dayak Company have not yet.

Therefore, Pei Qian hoped to use this dinner to let Eric become his mouthpiece and influence the policies of the top management of Dayak Group more or less.

Eric seemed calm on the surface, but his brain was running fast.

Mr. Pei's behavior seems a little unnecessary. If it is for favor, it is absolutely impossible.

There is nothing human about business conduct.

Or, just to show off at the wine table for a moment, to sneer at a few words, and to have a good time?

Eric didn't think Pei would always be that naive.

Then, the only possibility is that Mr. Pei also wants to take this opportunity to obtain some information from himself!

Now the person in charge of the ioi national service has changed, which means that Tenda Group is about to face a new opponent. Mr. Pei should also want to get some information about this, so he invites you to this meal.

At present, although Tenda Group is winning steadily, but after all, the company is relatively small, and the overall situation with Dayak Company is still in a situation where the outcome is still unclear.

Then, it makes sense for Mr. Pei to plan ahead and want to get some information about the Dayak Group's next move from himself.

Both parties have demands to obtain information from each other, but who can obtain real information and who will obtain false information?This is hard to say.

Eric hesitated for a few seconds, then immediately put on a smile and nodded: "Of course, it's my honor to dine with Mr. Pei."

……

Ten minutes later, everyone came to a high-end restaurant in the mall.

Although Yuanda Tiandi is a large shopping mall in the core area of ​​Jingzhou, the overall price level of restaurants is still quite different from places like unknown restaurants or Mingfu Family Banquet. The more expensive restaurants are only around [-] per capita.

After all, it is 2011, and the overall price level has not inflated so much.

The reason why I didn't go to Mingfu's family banquet was because Eric was leaving by plane in the afternoon and didn't have much time, so I decided to have the dinner at the restaurant in the shopping mall.

Randomly ordered a few more expensive dishes, and ordered a bottle of the most expensive XO, but it still didn't cost much, which made Pei Qian feel a little regretful.

However, everyone's purpose is not to eat.

After chatting casually for a while and clinking glasses a few times, Eric decided to get down to business.

He knows very well that to deal with a smart person like Mr. Pei, it is meaningless to approach or hope for "drunken gaffes".

If you want to get information from Mr. Pei, you must actively release some information. This is a game that can only be played against more sophisticated opponents.

So, Eric shook the wine glass in his hand slightly: "Mr. Pei, everyone is smart, so I won't go around in circles anymore."

"We all know that the other party has the information we want, otherwise it would be impossible to eat at the same table at this time."

"In this case, let's be direct and save each other's time."

"After I go back, I will report to the senior management of the Dayak Group. If it is the worst situation, I may be demoted or marginalized. Once I am transferred to the marginal department, it is almost impossible for me to climb up again and take charge important business."

"So, I have to save myself. And the way to save myself is to get more information."

"We take turns asking each other three questions, answering them in turn, and exchanging information that is of interest to each other. If the person being questioned finds it difficult to answer this question, then the person asking the question can change to another question. What do you think, Mr. Pei?"

Pei Qian originally wanted Eric to be the mouthpiece between himself and the Dayak Group, but he was afraid that the topic would start too bluntly, which would arouse Eric's vigilance.

Now that Eric proposed, of course Pei Qian couldn't wish for it, and immediately nodded and said, "Yes."

Seeing Mr. Pei agreeing so simply, Eric was more sure of his inference.

He did not emphasize that each other should give a true answer, because even if he emphasized this point, it would be impossible to constrain the two parties.

But since the two sides take turns to ask questions, if one party does not give a satisfactory answer to the questioner, this game will not continue.

Therefore, the optimal solution is to release some real information that has little impact, and mix some wrong information in it to mislead the other party.

It depends on the ability of both parties to discriminate information.

Even misinformation has value to Eric.Because wrong information can be identified, filtered, and correct information can be deduced from it.

Eric felt that Mr. Pei must also be aware of this, so he agreed so simply.

Zhang Yuan, Lin Wan and the others pricked up their ears, feeling a little nervous.

Sure enough, Mr. Pei invited Eric to dinner for a special purpose!

There are not so many fancy tricks in the master's fight, they are all smart people, and the efficiency of this communication is too high.

Asking three questions each, to put it bluntly, is some form of intelligence warfare.It's just that Eric seems to be scheming, can Mr. Pei win?

Although they are full of confidence in Mr. Pei, everyone can't help but sweat.

At this time, Pei Qian was not nervous at all.

Because he doesn't need to be nervous at all.

Pei Qian didn't expect to get any useful information from Eric at all. Anyway, no matter what the Dayak company did in the future, Pei Qian would just throw money as usual, so as not to change.

Moreover, Pei Qian is not afraid of leaking the real information to Eric at all, because he has no secrets at all except the system itself.

Even Pei Qian wanted to reveal some inside information, so as to stimulate Dayak Company to continue burning money.

If the Dayac company started a price war with Tenda, it would be too late for Pei Qian to be happy!

However, in order not to make Eric suspicious, Pei Qian still had to put on a very serious expression.

Eric said: "To show my sincerity, Mr. Pei, you can ask first."

Pei Qian thought for a while, and he didn't seem to have any good questions, so he asked casually: "What's the name of the person sent by the Dayak Group to replace you? Tell me about him."

Eric didn't think about it for too long: "Chretien, the former senior executive of Finger Company, has been in charge of the promotion and marketing of the European market. He has a relatively high voice in Finger Company and can make certain changes to the game content. In terms of professionalism, he is better than me."

"His personality is relatively conservative, and he attaches great importance to the localization of games. This time he is in charge of the ioi national server, and he may cooperate with local game companies to promote it."

Eric is very clear that this information is all that Mr. Pei can collect, so there is no need to cover it up. It will appear more sincere if it is spoken out.

Pei Qian nodded: "It's your turn to ask questions."

Eric thought for a while and said: "I have collected some information about Tenda, and I know that one of the key reasons why GOG can maintain its leading position is that you are really willing to spend money for it, Mr. Pei. "

"Even until now, even though GOG has occupied such a huge market share, the game still fluctuates between a small profit and a loss because of its low pricing strategy and large marketing expenses."

"I probably know exactly how much money you spent on GOG, but what puzzles me is, why do you dare to burn so much money?"
