Reborn in another world as a game

Chapter 365 [Electronic Pet] The real core is emotion (large thank you scene)

【Electronic Pet】Price?

Tian Moyun deliberately didn't announce it, because he hasn't figured out how much he should pay until now.

The most expensive component of this product should be the research and development of [Thunder-A001].

Even if there is a correct R&D route, dozens of optimization and adjustments alone cost nearly [-] million yuan.

And a large part of this money has to be apportioned in [electronic pets].

……

"The total cost of this product is about 37.8 yuan to 39.5 yuan, so in terms of pricing, my suggestion is 99 yuan."

The relevant person in charge of [Thunder Game Company] said.

The cost is about 39 yuan, sold for 99 yuan, and the profit is 60 yuan. After deducting the 5% student charity promised by Tian Moyun, the profit is reduced to 55 yuan.

It seems to make a lot of money, but——

If the research and development cost of [Thunder-A001] is also included, there is actually not much profit.

Calculated according to the estimated sales volume of "300 million units" given by the marketing department, after deducting the research and development costs, the profit will not exceed [-] million.

of course!

[Electronic Pet] No one knows how much this product, which has never been done before in the market, can sell.

300 million units is just a conservative estimate. If the sales volume exceeds this figure, the R&D cost shared on each [Electronic Pet] will be reduced, and the net profit of each unit will also increase linearly.

"99 yuan... still feels like too much."

Tian Moyun pondered for a moment: "Let's set it at 79 yuan, and cut it off by 20 yuan."

Based on the estimated sales volume of 300 million units, if 20 yuan is cut off, almost 6000 million yuan of profit will be cut off.

This is what makes Tian Moyun different.

If it were any other company, even if it was the Big Three, it would be absolutely impossible to make such a self-cutting profit arrangement.

……

Cutting off the profit of 20 yuan is of course not just for the benefit of the players and to earn a good reputation.

If it wasn't for the cost of [Thunder-A001], he even wanted to cut another 20 yuan.

Material cost + packaging cost + transportation cost + promotion cost + offline sales profit... add up to 39 yuan, isn't it good to sell 59 yuan?
The reason why Tian Moyun did this was actually out of an attempt.

Specifically in two aspects.

First of all--

It is the test of the mobile terminal chip.

Compared with mobile phones and handheld computers, which cost more than billions or billions of dollars, it is undoubtedly more cost-effective to use [electronic pets] as a test.

After the feedback of this chip is confirmed, the mobile phone and handheld can be put on the agenda, and it is not appropriate to keep throwing it in the laboratory.

Secondly——

It is a test of the gameplay of "raising pets".

What impresses players the most about raising pets?
It's not the gameplay, it's not the picture, it's the emotion.

High-quality development games are considered a psychological sustenance for many players.

Players encounter all kinds of pressure and setbacks in their lives. When they are tired, they always need some "healing" things to relieve the depression, and then pass the day after day.

Learning is stressful, work is stressful, and life is stressful.

Encountering unfavorable things, unfavorable people, or even unfavorable weather can easily cause psychological depression.

In these cases, it's much better to have something "healing" around to distract you from it.

……

In life, you will always find many independent and confident people who have small pets (usually cats and dogs; if they are not very busy) at home.

From the outsiders' point of view, maybe they just think that this person is quite caring and should be a person with a gentle temper.

But for themselves...

Wandering alone in a different place, living in a cold house without any fireworks, even if the house is decorated according to my ideal, even if the furniture and appliances are my favorite, there is no "home" atmosphere.

After a busy day at work, when I return home, I can always feel a little lonely and lonely, accompanied by a surge of negative emotions when midnight comes.

(On the Internet in the previous life, there is a sentence that can describe this phenomenon: it's time, I'm going to be depressed.)
And in this case, what about keeping a cat?

When I go to work, I wonder if it is obedient at home, whether it jumps up and down and wreaks havoc everywhere while I am away.

After get off work, I wonder if it will be hungry at home, if it has eaten cat food, if it will climb onto the balcony...

It seems to have added some troubles to myself, but from another perspective...won't it add some "home" atmosphere?

Pet cats are like their own family members, and they will naturally be taken care of with care.

After a long time, cats are not just cats. That kind of emotion is no longer between the owner and the pet.

……

And what about the students?

Owning a pet cat is a dream that many girls cannot realize.

Why can't it be achieved?

This involves many reasons, such as: economy, time, energy, family and other factors.

From an economic point of view: they are all still students, and the economy is completely dependent on their parents. Therefore, it is unlikely that they will have the money to buy pet cats, pet food, pet toys, etc.

In terms of time: their primary task is to study, and they spend a lot of time in school, but pets are not allowed in school, so time is not allowed.

In terms of energy: the same reason as above.Moreover, parents also believe that keeping pets will distract from learning efficiency.

finally--

Family: not all parents will let their children keep pets, the biggest reason is disease and trouble;

Take a pet cat as an example, it’s not just a matter of buying it.

Need to take care of, need to deal with excrement, need to be treated when sick, and need to be supervised to avoid inexplicable disappearance...

In addition, there will always be various bugs and diseases on pets. In order to prevent pets from bringing diseases to children, parents often strictly prohibit them.

……

Emotion is the most inseparable thing for human beings.

And the birth of [Electronic Pet], the biggest core selling point is: to capture the emotions of players through "raising pets".

The same dog is just a tool for selling money to dog dealers, but to dog owners, it is a close relative who can't give up even if they sell everything.

The reason is the same.

In reality, due to various factors, players cannot satisfy their own "cultivation" psychology.

And if there is an [Electronic Pet], even if they know it is fake, and they know it was set in advance, players will naturally pay attention to and cultivate it as a real pet.

That's because human emotions are at work.

……

To put it bluntly, it is similar to "online dating".

Why is "online dating" easy to see the light and die?
There is only one reason, that is, in the process of online dating, the inner emotions affect the rational judgment, wearing filters on the eyes, subconsciously beautify the other party, only through a profile picture and a few kaomoji, I think the other party is cute and lovely Invincible beautiful girl...

Under the influence of this "infinite beautification", once they meet a real person, more than 99% of online dating friends will immediately collapse in their hearts.

but--

What if the tragedy of "meeting offline" didn't happen?
Then, the existence time of "infinite beautification" will be greatly extended until...you completely get rid of your sensibility from this "emotion" and calm down again.

The "infinite beautification" time of [electronic pet] is about half a year.

After this time, the "cultivation psychology" deep in the players' hearts will be satisfied, and the additional emotions instilled in the "pets" will slowly dissipate.

And when that time came—

[Electronic Pet] Although it has become a thing of the past, it will still be the best memory in the hearts of players.

Even in the future, there will be more fun and explosive games, but when I mention [Electronic Pet], I can still recall the happy and satisfying time.
