To become the richest man from the beginning of the game

Chapter 1551 Let them continue to dig people!
Pei Qian had no idea about game consoles, but after a visit to Chaolu Game Platform, he suddenly had this idea.

Even a game platform has been built, isn't it reasonable to be a host?

Relatively speaking, the chances of losing money as a console are much higher than those of smart speakers, earphones, and TVs, right?

The host is considered a sinkhole in the whole world, and the number of manufacturers who can understand it will never exceed the number of one hand.

And it basically doesn't make any money.

Therefore, Pei Qian felt that it was a good direction to develop a host.

But after seeing Lao Song's excited expression, Pei Qian felt that Lao Song's expression was not what he wanted, and the possibility of losing money was obviously not enough!

This reminded him of that classic scene.

Host, can you lose money?

Yes, but Tenda may not.

Can the router lose money?
Yes, but you have to make the product weird enough.

Can the host and router lose money?

Dare to ask Big Brother what is sacred?

My lord, the chief designer of Tenda, Pei Qian!
As a host, Tenda has already accumulated quite a lot. On the one hand, there are many excellent game products that can be moved to its own host. On the other hand, there is a Chaolu game platform, with enough players, and enough recognition for Tenda.

If there is any company in China that is qualified to be a game console, it must be Tenda.

The risk of making money is too great for Pei Qian to bear.

At this time, Pei Qian thought of the famous joke again, which was the joke about referring to the host as a router.

Can I lose money as a router?To be honest, it's a bit difficult.

Although the router can be regarded as a product with a technical threshold, you can find a ready-made technical team and find a foundry!

Even if the products produced are not particularly excellent, if they are sold at a slightly cheaper price, they will not lose money.

Therefore, if the technology is not stretched to the extreme, if you want to rely on the router to lose money, you must make it strange enough.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian immediately found his way.

Combine router and game console into one!Make the same thing!
Isn't that weird enough?

Of course, Pei Qian had expected that Lao Song would be confused and even suspicious, so he added a few more words.

"The products of Outu Technology have always been committed to solving the pain points of users!"

"For example, the fully automatic intelligent bar lifter is to solve the problem that the bar lifter is not smart enough."

"The smart fitness drying rack is to solve the problem of inconvenient drying of fitness equipment."

"The current router is to solve the problem that the game console is not easy to hide."

"Many people forcefully refer to game consoles as routers. Tell me, isn't this self-deception? How can this kind of shape look like a router?"

"You have to add some antennas anyway!"

"So, our product is to solve this pain point, so that men can put it in the living room generously, and then tell their daughter-in-law, it is a router! Although it is expensive, it must be a router with a very good signal! "

"It looks like a large router in the shape of a boxy octopus. The antennas must be fully inserted, and there must be no missing one."

"And it's useless even if you take a lie detector, because what the man said is absolutely true, this is really a router!"

"It's just that it has a little extra function, that is, it can play games."

"Beyond that, there are other benefits to having the host and router in one."

"The direct connection between the host and the router can speed up the data transmission between the two, and directly avoid the possible network fluctuations after the host is connected to the wireless network."

"In addition, because its internal storage is large enough, it can also store some resources, and it also has multiple functions such as a host, router, and TV box, providing consumers with a one-stop living room solution!"

"Of course, because the signal of this game router is strong, I think it can also integrate a game streaming function, whether it is a computer, mobile phone, console, TV or other devices such as VR glasses, it must be connected to the This is on the game router. In this way, the game screen of the router can be projected to any display device very smoothly!"

"In the past, it was cumbersome and unstable to stream PC games to mobile phones, or to stream mobile games to TVs, and there was no mature solution."

"But with the game router, all this will be changed!"

"Open up a special wireless network in the game router. After any display device is connected to this network, it can display the game screen of the host. First, realize the effect of cloud games in your own home, and play wherever you go. "

"You said that this router has a lot to offer?"

Lao Song blinked, with a shocked expression on his face.

Good guy, I feel that Mr. Pei's words are very reasonable!

How can such a miraculous product be conceived by a person with a normal brain circuit?

But if you think about it according to the idea given by Mr. Pei, let alone, it makes sense.

What is the most important thing for a game console?The first is obviously the excellent game content on it, and the second is its hardware configuration.

For Tenda, these two points are not lacking, or relatively not lacking.

Although it may not be able to compare with those big game console manufacturers abroad, in China, Tenda is definitely the most qualified to be a game console.

But is that enough?
It seems not.

As a product, it must also have unique highlights and reasons for people to remember.If it is just a poor imitation of foreign game consoles, why should players buy it?Why not buy a foreign host?

The blessing of domestic sentiment may be one reason, but if this is the only reason, the support is not enough.

Although Tenda has a lot of games, they are basically cross-platform. It is impossible to remove the games on the official platform and make them exclusive to this console.

Even if it is an exclusive game for the console, it will have to wait for a new game later.

As for the hardware, there should not be much advantage.

Because console hardware doesn’t make much money in the first place, the strategy of all major foreign manufacturers is to sell consoles as cheaply as possible, and then use games to make profits.

The high price of the host is not conducive to popularization. First, set a low price to make the host as popular as possible in the living rooms of thousands of households, slowly cultivate players, and then use various excellent games to make money.

Moreover, major foreign OEMs have a large output and are not worried about selling them, so they have relatively strong bargaining power on the supplier side and can negotiate prices.

In summary, even if Tenda can subsidize its host, but in terms of price, compared with those hosts abroad, it may not have any advantages in terms of hardware configuration and price.

For players, even if they buy something like a console, they will probably only buy one.After all, there are still a small number of core players on all platforms.

Most players buy game consoles for Tu Yile. If they buy one, they may not be able to play it. Why would they buy a second one?

This is also an important reason why the field of game consoles is difficult to advance: emerging manufacturers are simply unable to compete with those foreign console game manufacturers.

Although Tenda seems to have everything in place and only owes the wind, in fact, there is still a relatively large gap between the quality and quantity of the foreign console game manufacturers.

If you want to succeed in this situation, you have to think of other ways.

As for the idea proposed by Mr. Pei, at least there are hot spots and recognition. Once it is released, it will naturally attract the attention of players.

After the game console and the router are combined into one, some new functions it can achieve, such as fast, convenient and stable streaming of the game screen to all the display devices connected to the wireless network in the room, this is what other games Advantages that the host does not have!
Of course, in order to achieve this ideal state of the product, it still needs arduous efforts.

But at least Mr. Pei has pointed out a broad road for this product!
Lao Song recalled the few plans he had made before, such as wireless earphones, smart speakers, TVs... and felt that he was simply a mediocrity!
What is the most important quality as a product manager?
imagination!
It's a shame to be so unimaginative when you claim to be an excellent product manager!

Look at Mr. Pei again, this is the ideal form of an excellent product manager!
Thinking of this, Lao Song said firmly: "Okay President Pei, I will definitely work harder to develop this game router!"

Pei Qian nodded in satisfaction, then stood up: "Okay, the work here is almost done, I should go back."

For Outu Technology, there is no need to worry in the short term.

Lao Song sent Mr. Pei out, and then went back to seriously ponder these two plans.

Just as Pei Qian got into the car, the phone rang again.

"Huh? Why are so many people looking for me today?"

"That's right, it's already Friday, and there are probably some remaining issues that need to be consulted."

"Called by Qiao Laoshi? If I remember correctly... he should be in charge of the live broadcast of Tuwei right now?"

Pei Qian picked up the phone: "Old Qiao, what's the matter?"

Qiao Liang's anxious and anxious voice came from the phone: "Mr. Pei, I found out that Langya and Waiwai are secretly poking for our anchor!"

"Although there is no fanfare to dig, the action is obviously bigger than before, and the conditions given are also more attractive. Some of our anchors have already jumped away!"

Pei Qian couldn't help being a little surprised.

Um?Waiwai live broadcast and Langya live broadcast?

sure!
But... why is it still "secretly poked"?

You let go of your hands and feet, digging blatantly!I won't stop you, really.

Pei Qian is not sure whether there is an anti-Tengda alliance behind this. The poaching may be instigated by the Anti-Tengda alliance, but since he dare not blatantly poach people and tear his face apart, it means that the two live broadcast platforms are still in a relationship. Relatively wavering, rather hesitant state.

If so, give them a hand!
Pei Qian said: "Just let them dig, it doesn't matter."

Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment: "Don't make any reaction? At least we should expose their shameless behavior, right?"

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "It's not necessary."

"Anchors are free, they can go wherever they want, we can't boast that we are a free platform, and at the same time try to tie up the anchors, right?"

"If the conditions of the other two platforms are really attractive and poach the anchors away, it means that we have not done well in some places."

"Forging iron requires hard work!"

On the other end of the phone, Qiao Liang was silent for a while, and said, "Well, I understand, Mr. Pei."
