Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 489 The emerging mobile business; crushing comparison

The lively engagement banquet is over.

Tian Moyun and Su Qiong returned to the imperial capital and continued their daily life of showing affection.

And some projects that are more concerned about are also progressing well.

The sales of the handheld game "Pokemon: Pikachu" are very hot, breaking the record of the first generation.

This is mainly due to the word-of-mouth accumulation of the previous work, as well as the publicity brought by the new animation "Elf: Hot-Blooded Boy".

Although Tian Moyun doesn't make much money from games anymore, he still feels relieved when he sees the sales are booming.

The happiest thing in the world is to share your happiness with others, and the other person can also get happiness from it.

[Qingyun Mobile Phone]'s 500 million inventory was sold out immediately, and it is currently working overtime for production.

This made Tian Moyun a little puzzled: "Can a mobile phone worth 3000 yuan sell so well?"

It is true that the per capita GDP of Daxia Kingdom has grown rapidly due to the gains brought about by international trade, but 3000 yuan is still a lot of money for the public.

The inventory of 500 million units was thought to last for a long time, but it was sold out in less than a month.

This made Tian Moyun wonder if he was out of date.

"The spending power of Chinese people has always been strong."

Zhou Yunteng explained: "The sales of game consoles and computers are growing slowly. On the one hand, the market is saturated. On the other hand, many Chinese people feel that they don't need them and are unwilling to pay for these products. However, some products that can provide quality of life, They have a lot of buying power."

"Right."

Tian Moyun nodded.

Even in another ten or twenty years, it is absolutely impossible for game consoles and computers to become must-have products for every household.

Needless to say the former, the harmful comments about games will not dissipate in another 100 years. This is due to human prejudice and has nothing to do with cognition or facts.

And the computer?
For a large number of people, a computer is not a necessity.

The jobs that many people have been engaged in all their lives may not have anything to do with computers, and they do not recognize computers as productivity.

What about cell phones?
In the era of big mobile phones in the past, mobile phones belonged only to the rich, and they were at the same level as luxury goods.

But now, with the appearance of [Orange Phone], the price of the mobile phone has been directly reduced to less than 599 yuan, and the price of the cheapest model currently on sale has been reduced to [-] yuan, which can be called the lowest price in the world.

Under such circumstances, mobile phones have spread rapidly, entered thousands of households, and began to replace fixed lines.

Game consoles and computers are not productive, but mobile phones are not enough, especially when mobile phones become popular in the whole society, it will be very inconvenient to not have mobile phones.

Is the 2999 yuan [Qingyun mobile phone] very expensive?

If it is a pure entertainment product, it may make many people hesitate.

But as a mobile phone, it can provide a lot of efficiency and practicality for life and work, and consumers will find reasons to persuade themselves to buy it, and the reasons can be strange.

"As a fashionable person, how can you use an outdated mobile phone?"

"My colleague Xiao Wang bought a 3G mobile phone. Wouldn't I be underestimated if I use a 2G mobile phone?"

"Mobile phones are not only useful for making calls, but also convenient for watching TV."

"The mobile phone can be used to surf the Internet, and it's not bad to take it out to read the news when you have nothing to do."

"Its appearance is very fashionable and elegant, in line with the white-collar positioning."

"I must buy a good-looking mobile phone, so that customers will not question my business ability."

When these strange reasons become added value, you will no longer feel that [Qingyun Mobile Phone] is expensive, but feel that it is worth the money.

Is 2999 yuan a lot?

Take the office workers in the imperial capital as an example, you can buy it in about three months if you live frugally.

Like the Earth in the previous life, it is not uncommon to have a monthly salary of less than 3000 yuan and use the latest iPhone.

……

In March, Tian Moyun saw the performance report.

[Qingyun mobile phone] sales exceeded 600 million units.

【Photo Printer】Sold 69 units.

"Hot Blood Legend" point card/monthly card has a total revenue of 1.77 million.

"Pokemon: Pikachu" earned 3.95 million.

"My Homeland: Mobile Edition" has a revenue of 600 million.

"Jianghu Killing: Mobile Edition" has a revenue of 350 million.

"Star Reading: Mobile Edition" has a revenue of 670 million.

"Star Music: Mobile Edition" earned 1050 million yuan.

"Star Game: Mobile Edition" earned 770 million yuan.

"Star TV" has a revenue of 120 million.

[Xingkong Computer Extreme Edition] Revenue is 72.

The above is the full revenue status of new products in February.

"[Qingyun Mobile Phone] has sold 600 million units, and the revenue of the software business has reached 3560 million..."

Tian Moyun was very surprised by this income.

It doesn't matter that the sales of mobile phones are booming, the ability to pay is really amazing.

You know, [Qing Yun] is a mobile phone, its main function is communication, and everything else is incidental.

But it can be seen from the report that -

For these "additional functions", the total payment amount reached 3560 million.

This is just the beginning, if [Starry Sky OS Mobile Version] completely becomes a mature platform, I am afraid it will become one of the most powerful economic pillars of the group.

Even in the next few years, it will completely surpass [Xingkong Computer] and [Thunder Games] and become the group's number one pillar.

It's no wonder that those mobile phone manufacturers in the previous life earth are desperately trying to compete for the mobile phone payment entrance...

……

"Do you need to publish this revenue statement?"

Zhou Yunteng asked.

"Let's forget it, so as not to irritate Wilson and those people."

Tian Moyun shook his head: "We just need to make a fortune in silence. By the way, how is the situation of [Shenhui Technology]?"

At the previous press conference, Wilson was crazy about porcelain, and their products are indeed quite technical, which made Tian Moyun a little curious.

"[Shenhui Technology] has not been officially released."

Zhou Yunteng replied: "But I can get rough data through network data analysis and calculation of their offline channel shipments."

“The sales volume of [Shenhui Mobile Phone] does not exceed 10 units.”

“The total sales volume of [Shenhui Family Bucket] does not exceed 200 million, and user reviews are mostly negative.”

"The situation of "Genesis" is unknown. Their installed capacity of computers is not high, and the revenue in the first month will not exceed 1000 million."

"However, "Genesis" is very popular internationally, and the international market is more accepting of this type of Western-style games. If Wilson publishes the data, it should directly announce the international revenue instead of the mainland revenue. Create an illusion."

To sum it up in two words: cold.

【Jazz Phone】As the world's first 3G mobile phone, the research and development cost is not low, and the first sales are less than 10 units.

[Shenhui Family Bucket] is completely modeled on [Starry Sky Family Bucket] in terms of hardware, but because of the software, it cannot achieve coordination at all, and cannot bring users a portable experience. In contrast, the reputation is poor, and the entire Brands are stuck in the quagmire.

Genesis is a good game.

However, limited by [Shenhui Computer]'s installed capacity in China, the first month's revenue was less than [-] million yuan, and Wilson screamed at the loss.

The only thing that is a little gratifying is probably the popularity of "Genesis" in the international market. This is the only capital they can use to compete with "Legend of Blood".

but……

When the members of [Storm Game] come back from their trip and make that super masterpiece, I wonder if Wilson can still laugh...
