Chapter 1550 Let Them Keep Poaching People!

Pei Qian did not have any thoughts about the game system at first. However, after making a trip to Dawn Games platform, he suddenly had this idea.

He had even created a gaming platform. Wouldn’t it be reasonable to make a system unit?

Comparatively, the chances of losing money by making a system unit were much higher than making products like smart speakers, earphones, television, right?

A system unit was a pitfall in the world. Few manufacturers could understand it. What’s more, it was not profitable.

Therefore, Pei Qian felt that creating a system unit was a good direction.

However, seeing Old Song’s excited expression, Pei Qian felt that Old Song’s expression was not what he wanted. The possibility of losing money was obviously not enough!

That made him think of a classic scene.

Could the system units incur losses? He could, but Tengda might not. Could the router lose money?

He could, but he had to make the product strange enough.Would the system unit and router lose money?

Dare I ask who this god is?

I am the chief designer of Tengda, Pei Qian!

As a system unit, Tengda had accumulated a lot of experience. On one hand, it had many outstanding game products that could be moved to its own system unit. On the other hand, it had Dawn Games platform. It had enough players and recognized Tengda.

If any company in the country was qualified to make a game system, it would definitely be Tengda.

The risk of making money was too high. Pei Qian could not take it.

At that moment, Pei Qian recalled a famous joke. It was the joke of turning the system unit into a router.

Could he incur losses by making a router? To be honest, it was a little difficult.

The router might be a product with a technical threshold, but they could poach a ready-made technical team and find a factory! Even if the products were not particularly outstanding and were sold at a cheaper price, they would not lose out. Therefore, if he wanted to rely on the router to lose money without the technology being stretched to the extreme, he had to make it strange enough.

At that thought, Pei Qian immediately found a direction.

Combine the router with the game console! Make it the same thing!

Wouldn’t that be strange enough?

Of course, Pei Qian had expected Old Song to be confused and even suspicious. Thus, he added a few more sentences.

“Otto Technologies’ products have always been committed to solving users’ pain points!”

“For example, the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine is to solve the problem of whether the Bickering Machine is not smart enough.”

“The smart fitness drying rack is to solve the problem of whether the fitness equipment is not convenient to dry clothes.”

“Now, this router is to solve the difficult problem of the game console.”

“Many people forcefully say that the game machine is a router. Tell me, isn’t that self-deception? How does such a thing look like a router?”

“You should at least add a few cables!”

“Therefore, our product is to solve this pain point so that men can place it in the living room openly. Then, they can tell their spouses that it is a router! It might be expensive but it must be a router with a very good signal!”

“It looks like a large router. It’s shaped like a squarish octopus. The skyline must be filled up. Not a single one can be missing.”

“What’s more, it’s useless even if we use a lie detector. That’s because the man is definitely not lying. This is really a router!”

“However, it has a little additional function. That is to play games.”

“Other than that, there are other benefits to combining the system unit with the router.”

“The main computer and router are connected directly. It can speed up the data transmission between the two and directly avoid the possible network fluctuations after the main computer connects to the wireless network.”

“On top of that, as its internal storage is big enough, it can also store some resources. At the same time, it has multiple functions such as the system unit, router, television box, and so on. It provides consumers with a one-stop living room solution!”

“Of course, due to the strong signal of this game road machine, I think it can also be integrated into the stream function of a game. Be it computers, cell phones, mainframes, television, or other equipment like VR glasses, they have to be connected to this game road machine. That way, the game graphics of the road machine can be projected onto any display equipment very smoothly!”

“In the past, it was more troublesome to transfer PC games onto cell phones or to television. What’s more, they were unstable. There was no mature solution.”

“However, everything would change with the game machine!”

“Create a special wireless network in the game road machine. Any display equipment can be connected to this network. Then, the game graphics of the main computer can be displayed. We’ll first realize the effect of the cloud game in our own home. We’ll play it wherever we go.”

“Do you think this router machine is very promising?”

Old Song blinked, looking shocked.

Good lord, what Boss Pei said made sense!

How could someone with a normal brain circuit think of such a magical product?

However, if he followed Boss Pei’s train of thought, it made sense. What was the most important thing to the game machine? First, it obviously had outstanding game content. Second, it had hardware.

To Tengda, these two points were not lacking, or rather, they were not lacking.

It might not be comparable to foreign game manufacturers but Tengda was definitely the most qualified to make game consoles in China.

However, was that enough?

That did not seem to be the case.

As a product, there had to be a unique point that people could remember. If it was just a clumsy imitation of foreign game consoles, why would players buy it? Why not buy foreign game consoles?

There might be one reason for the blessing of domestically-produced emotions, but it would not be enough.

There might be many games in Tengda but they were basically cross-border. It was impossible to take down the games on the official platform and make them into the monopoly of the main computer.

Even if it was a monopoly game with a system unit, it had to wait for the new game. As for the hardware, there shouldn’t be much advantage.

That was because the hardware of the system units were not profitable to begin with. The strategy of all foreign manufacturers was to sell the system units at as low a price as possible and then use games to earn profits.

It would not be beneficial to popularize the system units if they were too expensive. Pei Qian would set a low price to allow the system units to be as common as possible in the living room of thousands of households. Then, he would slowly train players and use various outstanding games to make money.

What’s more, foreign computer manufacturers had large production and did not have to worry about not being able to sell. Thus, they were more bargaining power in the suppliers and could negotiate the price.

All in all, even if Tengda could subsidize its own system units, its hardware hardware and prices would probably not be as good as foreign ones.

To players, even if they wanted to buy a system unit, they would probably only buy one. Core players on the entire platform were ultimately very few.

Most gamers only wanted to have fun buying system units. They might not even be able to make it if they bought one. Why would they buy a second one?

This was also an important reason why it was not easy to enter the field of game consoles: emerging manufacturers could not compete with foreign computer game manufacturers.

Tengda looked like it was well-prepared and only needed the east wind. However, in terms of quality and quantity, it was actually still quite different from foreign computer game manufacturers.

If he wanted to succeed under such circumstances, he had to think of other ways.

On the other hand, Boss Pei’s idea was at least a hot topic and recognizable. Once it was released, it would naturally attract players’ attention.

On the other hand, after the game machine and router were combined into one, some new functions that it could achieve, such as fast, convenient, and stable transfer of the game graphics to all the display equipment in the room that was connected to the wireless network, were advantages that other game consoles did not have!

Of course, he still had to work hard to achieve this ideal state of the product.

However, Boss Pei had already pointed out a clear path for this product!

Old Song recalled the proposals he had made previously, such as wireless earphones, smart speakers, television… He felt that he was simply mediocre! As a product manager, what was the most important quality?

Imagination!

He obviously prided himself as an outstanding product manager, but he had no imagination. That was too shameful!

Look at Boss Pei, this was the ideal form of an outstanding product manager!

At that thought, Old Song said firmly, “Alright, Boss Pei. I’ll definitely work harder to develop this game router!”

Pei Qian nodded in satisfaction and stood up. “Alright, the work here is almost done. I should go back.”

Otto Technologies would not have to worry in the short term.

Old Song sent Boss Pei out and then went back to study the two plans seriously.

Pei Qian had just gotten into the car when his cell phone rang again.

“Eh? Why are so many people looking for me today?” “That’s true. It’s already Friday. He probably has some questions to ask.”

“Teacher Qiao called? If I remember correctly… he should be in charge of Bunny Tail Live-Stream now, right?”

Pei Qian picked up the phone. “Old Qiao, what’s the matter?”.

Qiao Liang’s apprehensive and anxious voice came from the other end of the line. “Boss Pei, I realized that Wolf Fang Live-Stream and Waiwai Live-Stream are secretly poaching our streamers!”

“We might not have poached them with great fanfare but our movements are obviously bigger than before. The conditions given are also more tempting. Some of our streamers have already jumped away!”

Pei Qian could not help but feel surprised. Eh? Waiwai Live-Stream and Wolf Fang Live-Stream are fighting? Not bad!However… why was it still ‘secretly’?

Do your best and poach him openly! I won’t stop you, really

Pei Qian was not sure if there was a conspiracy behind this. The poaching of people might have been egged on by the anti-Tengda Alliance. However, since they did not dare to poach people openly and fall out with them, it meant that these two live-stream platforms were still in a more swinging and hesitant state.

Since that was the case, he would help them!

Pei Qian said, “Let them poach it. It doesn’t matter.”

Qiao Liang was stunned. “Don’t react? Shouldn’t we at least expose their shameless behavior?”

Pei Qian smiled. “There’s no need.” “The streamers are free to go wherever they want. We can’t think of ways to trap them while boasting that we are a free platform, right?”

“If the conditions offered by the other two platforms are indeed tempting, poaching the streamers away would mean that we did not do well in certain places.”

“You have to be tough to forge!”

On the other end of the line, Qiao Liang was silent for a moment before saying, “Yes, I understand, Boss Pei.”
