I Just Want Players to Save Money, They Insist on Giving Me!-Chapter 47 - 26 The Grand Sales Plan Conceived by

Setting up such a popup might appear plain, but it would definitely satisfy the players’ vanity to a great extent.

“And finally, the most important part, pricing.”

According to Designer Ke’s requirements, he needed even casual players to have a good gaming experience.

Therefore, a high price point was naturally out of the question.

“The price should be in the single to double-digit range, preferably not exceeding three digits,” Gou Chehua said.

He carefully examined the in-game items.

He decided to sell marbles.

The game system was already quite complete, and there was no need to add extra paid items such as super-powerful Supreme Pinballs, which would ruin the game environment.

The players would be more accepting if the marbles that were originally part of the game were to be sold.

Of course, this sale would not mean that players had to buy marbles to play the game.

Gou Chehua planned to keep the original game content unchanged.

That is, the greatest pleasure in this game lay in its randomness, where every round would present different scenarios. Different marbles could be combined to create many styles of play.

However, having played a few rounds himself, he also had a question on his mind.

What if I just want to play with the Matryoshka Marble system?

‘I just like fission, I just want to see a screen full of bullets, I just want to see a clear field, I don’t like other styles at all.’ There surely were many players like this.

For these players, randomness would actually be a deduction, and if they couldn’t get the play style they wanted after several random tries, they might uninstall the game on the spot.

But on the other hand, they would be more willing to pay than those who liked randomness.

Because their need was stronger.

At this point, all that needed to be done was to sell the marbles they wanted as a fixed starter.

Directly profiting both monetarily and in online rates!

Win!

“As for the price, since Gotham has a wide variety of marbles, it’s best to keep the price of each marble low to encourage the desire to purchase.”

“And there should also be discounts to make players feel like they are getting a bargain, that the game company is taking a loss, which is the best outcome.”

“So, the pricing for a new player’s first marble purchase will be just one yuan, accompanied by a conspicuous red sign that reads (Slashed by 600%!).”

“If a player wishes to buy again, then from the second marble onward, it will be six yuan each. Six yuan for one fixed marble to add to their collection, freely selectable at the start of each game.”

“Of course, there will also be discount packs: 15 yuan for three marbles of their choice, or 30 yuan for six. And the ultimate pack would be priced at 99 yuan to unlock all marbles.”

“The same goes for relics.”

Gou Chehua felt his pricing strategy was already perfect.

If it were Tianying Company’s goddamn game director, he would have resorted to a gacha system long ago.

6 yuan for a marble?

6 yuan per draw!

Guaranteed rare marbles every ten draws, legendary marbles guaranteed every hundred!

To make it even darker, make it so you need a hundred draws to get a guaranteed legendary marble, but the specifics of what you’ll get are unknown, with a big guarantee only after two hundred.

Of course, that’s not the worst of it.

Blue Star has factories that are far more disgusting than that.

For example, offering no guarantee at all, just throwing out a 0.1% probability and letting the players slowly savor the sweetness and bitterness of life by themselves.

“Designer Ke would probably be heaping praise on my conscience,” Gou Chehua smugly finalized the plan and immediately began to perfect Gotham’s in-game recharge interface.

With a few simple programs he was proficient in, it didn’t take two hours before everything was all set.

By that time, the senior had also sent over the user data he had requested.

The list was about 1,000 people.

Without extra money for marketing and publicity, he could only promote it manually.

He sent emails one by one, and attached the game’s download link.

This link led directly to the Gotham website created by Ke Jin, bypassing both WWgame and Cloudgame. After taxes, all profits went straight into Ke Jin’s bank account.

Gou Chehua had also wondered why they didn’t choose to partner with WWgame or Cloudgame.

The previous few games had sold well on their platforms, hadn’t they?

Setting up their own website, with no reputation, would mean low trust from players, making it difficult to make money.

To this, Ke Jin’s answer was.

“One must try certain things for themselves in a lifetime.”

But in reality,

Ke Jin was just afraid those two sleeping dragons would concoct some other mischief for him.

“Okay, done! It’s just that I don’t know how many players are really willing to download it.” After a flurry of activity, Gou Chehua dusted off his hands.

The operations of “Gotham” could be considered as having come to a temporary conclusion.

Now, the only thing to do was to patiently wait for feedback.

Night had fallen deep, and Chang Le, with drunken stagger, half-asleep and half-awake, made his way home.

With his stomach churning, he hurried to the toilet and vomited profusely, nearly bringing up his stomach linings, before he finally felt some relief.

His mind also began regaining some clarity.

As a junior employee in an investment attraction company, Chang Le spent most of his days socializing.

Endless socializing that involved nothing but drinking.

Then, it was all about flattering the clients to the extreme amidst the clinking of glasses—all insincerity.

The pay was meager, and if a project failed, he even faced penalties.

Approaching thirty, and due to his awkwardness with words, he didn’t even have a girlfriend.

He had eventually fallen in love with a girl online through a game.

He loved her deeply, and had even thought of names for their future children.

Only to find out that the girl was just a shill employed by a small game company, with the sole purpose of tricking him into spending money.

By the time Chang Le realized what was happening, it was already too late.

Years of hard-earned savings had all been poured into the game, and when he considered going to the police, they didn’t care about such matters.

After all, when he was spending the money, Chang Le did so willingly, lavishing his wealth on his digital romance.

Looking at his empty, lifeless home,

Chang Le began wondering what the meaning of life was.

Of course, the meaning of life certainly wasn’t something one could fathom while surrounded by vomit in the toilet.

Once his head cleared, his sleepiness disappeared altogether.

He simply sat down in front of his computer.

After a moment’s thought, Chang Le couldn’t resist and logged into his QQ account.

What if that girl wasn’t a scammer and really had something going on during this time?

Maybe she had sent him a message as soon as he logged in?

Regrettably, there was no message.

But, there was an email.

Chang Le clicked to have a look.

[Dear player, the game industry’s rising star, Designer Ke’s new game “Goblin Pinball” has officially launched! This designer’s previous two popular titles, “Iwanna” and “Goose Duck Kill,” received rave reviews! You can’t miss this new game! Prepare for a groundbreaking gameplay that will overturn your perceptions! An extraordinarily thrilling playing experience awaits! The ultimate stress-reliever, only in “Goblin Pinball”! Please click this link to go to the official free download.

PS: Bro! I’m the planner of this game. The company is short on funds and can’t afford to promote it, but I swear on my conscience, this link is absolutely not a virus!

PS’s PS: Please, give it a try, it’s really fun…]

“Hahaha!” In the empty living room, Chang Le suddenly burst into laughter.

His mood, which had been gloomy for a while and not improved by any jokes, was unexpectedly lifted by this email.

This is a blatant phishing link, isn’t it?

Though I’m thirty, out of touch with the latest internet trends, that doesn’t mean I’m a fool, right?

What on earth are “Iwanna” and “Goose Duck Kill”? Never heard of them!

You could at least try to scam me with well-known games, couldn’t you?

Still, Chang Le took another glance.

Catching a glimpse of the words ‘ultimate stress-reliever’ out of the corner of his eye.

Stress-relieving, huh…

Recently, the mental pressure had indeed been tremendous, and Chang Le felt he might collapse at any moment.

He really needed some entertaining stress-relief to help him ease his tense nerves.

To be honest, he was somewhat tempted…

But what if it was a scam?

In hesitation, Chang Le saw the PS at the end of the message.

‘Please, just give it a try!’

Thinking about how he groveled before clients for investment in real life and then groveled for the online girl to return his money, he was so subordinate.

His whole life was begging others, and this was the first time someone begged him…

He was actually begging me…

I’ve won utterly!

“Ah well, let’s just try it out,” Chang Le decided and clicked on the game link anyway.

Let it be phishing if that’s what it is.

After all, there wasn’t much left for him to lose.
