Chapter 659 563. Qing Zhiyuan is simply a marketing genius
……
After getting off work in the evening, Masaharu Yamada went to the game store early.
The store manager had already prepared game discs for him early.
But.
"By the way, pokeni games can now be downloaded on the Dandelion Game Platform. Why do you, my guest, have to make a special trip?"
the store manager asked.
It's not that he doesn't want to do business anymore, it's just that this guy Yamada can be regarded as his long-term customer.
Just a few friendly inquiries.
The two have known each other for almost 10 years. Although they have not established a private friendship and are not friends, they are strangers who are familiar with each other.
This feeling is quite subtle.
Sometimes boyfriends and girlfriends cannot reach such a natural and harmonious state after breaking up.
Yamada Masaharu was slightly startled when he heard the store manager's words.
It's like it's never been thought of before.
In fact, this is the case. Yamada Masaharu has been buying games here for 10 years. Calculating the total amount, not to mention tens of millions of yen spent, but there must be millions of yen.
I buy games here every year, and it’s even more punctual than having dinner with my girlfriend.
Eh?
Where did I get my girlfriend?
Yamada Masaharu's thoughts ran away for a while, and then he was immediately pulled back.
"Hmm...why?"
He couldn't help but smile bitterly, tilting his head and thinking for a long time.
This time the store manager couldn't be bothered.
"Um... I just asked casually, I don't mean anything in particular." The store manager quickly made up for it.
“Since the Dandelion game platform launched the online download function, pokeni’s newly released games are basically exclusive to the platform, and customers have become accustomed to downloading games on the game platform.
It’s actually quite convenient to be able to play without having to go out.
To be honest, in the past year, fewer people have visited physical stores. "
“But, the physical version is better than the physical version. If you look at the game discs and packaging produced by P Company, they are actually quite exquisite.
and……"
The store manager took out the special gift box of "Violet Evergarden" from the cabinet, which contained not only a limited edition figure of Violet, but also a small model of a typewriter.
"It's purely mechanical. Although it's only about the size of a palm, it can really type. The question is, who has such small fingers? Haha."
The store manager laughed honestly.
Her thick chin and chubby body make her look particularly cute.
Yamada Shoji raised his head and glanced at him. Unknowingly, the store manager's temples were already gray.
He hadn't paid much attention to it before. Didn't he expect that he was already so old?
The store manager must be 50 years old, right?
However, he was too shy to ask, and instead focused his attention on the special ceremony box.
The entire gift box is the same as the figure, with a transparent outer packaging, so you can see the inside at a glance.
In the middle is a beautiful girl with long blond hair, metal arms, and a light blue dress.
Then in the lower right corner is a palm-sized typewriter, and the special ceremony box is almost 30 centimeters high.
It's quite exquisitely done.
Even Masaharu Yamada couldn't help but feel excited after taking a look at it.
"How much does this cost? Special offer." Masaharu Yamada asked.
"It depends on luck." The store manager smiled slyly, "Special offer of pokeni, there are only 1 sets in the world."
He took out a lottery box from under the table and said, "You can just draw and draw the word "special coupon". Of course, you must first purchase a copy of the game to be eligible for the draw."
To be precise, this is not Qing Zhiyuan's special offer, it should be called Hattori Hiroyuki's special offer.
Considering the feelings of President Hattori, Qing Zhiyuan specially held a lottery, giving away 1 sets for free, but it gave players a particularly good experience.
In fact, it promotes offline consumption in disguised form.
Yamada Masaharu was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that this was definitely a marketing campaign done by Pokeni.
As long as you can draw it, it is equivalent to getting a copy of the game for free. Then you can keep the bonus for yourself and give the game disc to others.
Of course, the premise is that you can draw it.
But in this way, Yamada Masaharu quickly thought of the optimal solution——
The best way is to organize a group of friends to buy, and then take turns watching the specials at the end.
If you have a business sense, you can probably use [purchase agency] to buy a lot of game discs at once to increase the probability of a lottery draw.
A 10-copy game bonus feels like it can drive sales of at least over copies.
When he thought of this, Yamada Masaharu couldn't help but burst out laughing.
This guy Qing Zhiyuan is really a marketing genius.
On the surface it looks quite interesting, and for the sake of the players, such an exquisite bonus can be regarded as a reflection of its sincerity.
But really it comes down to business.
Masaharu Yamada sighed silently, then picked up a game disc from the shelf and put it on the cashier.
After settling the bill, the store manager shook the lottery box, placed it in front of Yamada Masaharu, and winked at him.
"Here, good luck."
Yamada didn't quite understand what the wink meant. It was a bit strange for two grown men to ogle each other.
However, he put his hand in and pulled out a small piece of paper, which clearly said [Congratulations to the general, a special gift].
"Wow! Did I really win?!"
"Yes, that's right, congratulations."
The store manager packed the special ceremony box and placed it in front of Yamada Masaharu.
Yamada was almost moved to tears.
Although he was a little happy at first, wondering if his luck was really good, but after carefully recalling the meaningful smile and wink of the store manager, Yamada Masaharu immediately understood:
All of this was a friendly operation by the store manager, otherwise he would never have won the prize.
So touching.
"Thank you, store manager." Yamada Masaharu gave him a slight bow tacitly, expressing his sincere gratitude.
The store manager also smiled very happily, and neither of them said anything.
Although the bonus is not very valuable, it conveys the warmth of the store manager very well at this moment.
Although Qing Zhiyuan is all about business, the store manager is a person with emotions.
In the face of feelings, business and so on are simply vulnerable. …
"Ah, right."
Before leaving, Yamada Masaharu turned back and said, "Because of habit."
"Huh?" The store manager looked at him doubtfully.
"Didn't you ask me before why you don't download the game directly on the gaming platform?"
"Ah."
"Because of habit."
Yamada Masaharu smiled slightly, "I'm used to coming here to buy games, and I'm also used to having the store manager around. As for me, I'm sorry to say, I don't like change very much.
Once I become dependent, I will always get used to it unless the other person makes changes.
Every time I take a game from the store manager, I feel very at ease. "
The store manager was stunned for a moment, wondering if it was because he was old, but he burst into tears when he heard such words.
"Ah, that's it."
He showed a friendly and polite smile, "I hope to see you again next time. Guest."
……
After getting home and getting ready, he put on comfortable pajamas and sat in front of the TV.
He looked at the two games on the table. The girl in the special gift box clearly had a stubborn and beautiful face, but for some reason, it gave Yamada Masaharu the illusion of a smile.
think carefully--
Maybe it's because there is warmth in the world, and the store manager's warmth remains on it, right?
I don’t know how to thank him in the future.
It's a pity that I don't have a girlfriend or anything, otherwise this special gift can be given to a girl.
It's really a waste, giving me such a dead house.
However, Yamada Masaharu silently put away the special ceremony box, saying that he would definitely cherish it.
I took apart the regular version of the game,
Masaharu Yamada inserted the disc and the game started.
The screen went black, and pokeni's logo appeared on the screen.
Here are the iconic slogans:
【Game is life】
[Here, start an unprecedented journey of life]
……
Compared with the pictures, the first thing that appears in the player's mind is its music.
This is probably because someone hears his voice before seeing him.
Before even seeing the game content, the music started flowing slowly like a clear spring, with a Western classical aesthetic.
You can even dance a waltz with it.
A large sea of flowers appeared in the picture, followed by countless flying petals.
The girl carrying the suitcase appeared in a large flower field.
When the wind blows, the sky is filled with petals.
At the same time, she reached out her hand and gently brushed the long hair around her ears.
Masaharu Yamada's heart melted as he smiled sweetly at the camera.
pokeni is indeed pokeni, and the drawing of girls is truly the best in the world.
The delicate painting style and Japanese comic and European style games give people endless reverie.
The picture is quite beautiful.
However, Masaharu Yamada still hasn’t figured out what type of game this is.
In a short cutscene, the heroine walks through a flower field with a suitcase, and then the streets of a European city.
Then he came to a house.
He opened the suitcase, took out the typewriter, put it on the table, and sat down quietly.
The only thing that made people uncomfortable were her two black metal arms.
The picture was finally fixed here, with flower petals flying outside the window, and a small amount of letter paper in the corner of the room.
It was so beautiful that Yamada Masaharu was really stunned.
At this time, the menu bar slowly appeared.
It's like it was printed out by a girl.
The main interface ends with a dynamic picture. The petals outside the window are still flying, and the heroine’s fingers have not stopped. If you stay in this picture for long enough, she will stand up and go to the bookshelf next to her. Books or something.
Or pour yourself a cup of coffee and go back to the window to watch the scenery.
I have to say, the details of pokeni are a bit scary.
As a programmer, Masaharu Yamada quickly figured out how to do this:
The game is an animation-rendered scene, and the characters also have certain behavioral logic, but this is definitely not a live animation, but some sequence frames made by artists.
To be precise, it is a dynamic picture after rendering.
The backgrounds are taken out separately, and the characters' actions are animated from some of them.
In order to ensure that all animation connections are smooth, the heroine will actually sit next to the table in the end and put both hands on the typewriter.
This frame connects other animation content, so it looks particularly natural.
Amazing, pokeni.
The production team of this game has ideas.
By the way, who is the supervisor?
Yamada Masaharu thought.
Don’t really remember.
Could it be Furuhara Chunqiu again?
Of course, Yamada Masaharu would never think that Qing Zhiyuan made this game.
Masaharu Yamada pressed the button and selected [Start Game]
