Chapter 17: First Day Explosion
In the Penguin Video department meeting room, Yang Hao, Vice President Liu, and several technical staff were waiting patiently until 12 o'clock.
The popularity of Da Mimi has lasted for more than ten days. It is still unknown how much of it can be converted into the popularity of "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties". Yang Hao is still a little nervous.
Perhaps noticing Yang Hao's uneasiness, Vice President Liu patted Yang Hao on the shoulder and comforted him.
"Do your best and leave the rest to fate. It's unprecedented to achieve such a level of publicity. Just wait patiently for the results."
Yang Hao nodded and smiled back.
Yang Hao looked at the system again.
The cashback amount has reached 220 million (previously deposited 100 million + 500 times cashback of 0.2 million invested in interactive film and games + cashback of funds consumed by the store this month)
Seeing that it took only two years to save 220 million yuan in cashback, Yang Hao couldn't help but complain in his heart that this broken system was really crappy. Other people's super-rich systems just gave rewards to female anchors without thinking, and they could become the richest man in the world by getting cashback.
I started from scratch and worked hard for two years to only have this much.
The game "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties" is priced at 42 RMB, with a 9% discount in the first three days, which means the selling price is 37.8 RMB, and the profit share with the platform is 73:220. Yang Hao roughly estimated that the 315 million cashback is equivalent to 8.3 million game sales, or copies of the game.
It’s too few. 8.3 copies are unlikely to cause much stir. The final result will depend on whether this promotion is effective.
12 o'clock arrived in the blink of an eye. Yang Hao calmed down. On the contrary, Vice President Liu, who was strolling leisurely before, was now pacing back and forth in the conference room anxiously.
The conference room was quiet. Yang Hao and Vice President Liu would pick up their phones from time to time to check the feedback on Steam, QQ Game Hall, and TGP Game Comments.
It should have been just past 12 o'clock, the game had been on the shelves for a short while, and the players had just entered the game. There were only some sporadic check-in messages in the comment section, and it was impossible to see the real feedback from the players.
At about 1:20, hurried footsteps were heard outside the conference room door.
A technician in his twenties wearing glasses walked in cheerfully.
"Mr. Liu, great news! Look at the data, it's quite impressive," the young man with glasses handed a report to Vice President Liu.
The report was very brief, with only a few lines. There were 8,000 copies of QQ Game Hall and 2,000 copies of TGP.
Vice President Liu spent a few seconds reading the data report and then handed it to Yang Hao.
After all, Yang Hao is not a professional, and he is somewhat confused about whether this data is good or bad.
"Mr. Liu, is this data good or bad?" Yang Hao had some doubts.
"Of course it's good, otherwise why was the technician so excited just now? It's 1am now, and only a few people are buying the game. There are copies sold on the two platforms combined, so we can hopefully sell copies tomorrow."
"With sales exceeding 100,000 copies in one day, this game is definitely going to be a big hit," Vice President Liu was very excited, spitting all over the place as he spoke.
Vice President Liu is already fantasizing about how he will get a promotion and a raise if the pan-entertainment plan is successful.
Hearing this, Yang Hao felt relieved. In his previous life, "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties" didn't seem to have achieved daily sales of 10. Now that it has reached this level, it should be far beyond the level of his previous life.
After obtaining the data of the game's launch one hour ago, Yang Hao activated the system and divided the 1 shares into 8.3, 4 and 2.8 shares, which he injected into the system in three days, hoping to provide the final boost.
After setting up the system, Yang Hao took out the long-prepared planning report from his shoulder bag and handed it to Vice President Liu. In this plan, Yang Hao listed the most famous memes from the previous life of "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties".
Haohao cannot live without his father, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem.
I don't like Haohao's mother, I just want to give Haohao a home.
It's not that I can't afford a relationship, it's just that the 38-yuan game is more cost-effective
If you have research, choose research; if you don’t have research, restart.
If there is a deer, choose the deer; if there is no deer, restart the game
……
"Mr. Liu, these memes are just a title. We need to find some people to write some soft articles to expand on them and hype them up. You are all experts in how to do it, so just follow our lead."
The cashback amount was injected, and the famous memes from the previous life were brought out in advance to guide the players. This was all Yang Hao could do, and the rest could only be left to fate.

Yang Hao slept until noon the next day. The first thing he did when he woke up was to pick up his phone to check the hot searches on Weibo and the comments in the game comment section.
Sure enough, the three words "Da Mimi" are no longer at the top of the Weibo hot search list.
First: I don’t like Haohao’s mother, I just want to give Haohao a home
Second: Haohao cannot live without his father, just like the West cannot live without Jerusalem
Third: It turns out that Haohao’s mom’s yoga scene came from this game
It is said that there is no Da Mimi, but she was replaced by Haohao’s mother. Isn’t this still Da Mimi?
"Sister Mi is worthy of being Sister Mi. She is always a hot topic on Weibo," Yang Hao muttered to himself.
The game comment section is filled with all the fans of Mimi coming to report.
Seeing this scene, Yang Hao couldn't help but sigh, Da Mimi's popularity is so terrifying!
In the previous life of "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties", the most popular character was Zheng Ziyan, but in this life, because of Da Mimi, Haohao's mother's popularity has drastically crushed the other female protagonists.
It's a pity that Yang Hao suddenly appeared for Huang Mengying and Tan Songyun. Zhong Chenyao, who played Zheng Ziyan in her previous life, and Jia Jiazi, who played Xiao Lu, were both quite famous, but in this life, it is unlikely that Huang Mengying and Tan Songyun will even become slightly famous.
All the hot topics of this interactive film and game were absorbed by Da Mimi alone, and everyone else just became a foil.
This is what it’s like to act with top stars. You can share some of the popularity, but not too much. It raises the lower limit, but also locks the upper limit.
During the day, Yang Hao basically kept refreshing Weibo and the game comment section, just to be the first to know the players' feedback on the game "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties".
Just after 12 o'clock in the evening, Vice President Liu called. Before he spoke, Yang Hao could feel a sense of joy from his rapid breathing.
"QQ game hall 15.8 copies, TGP 2.3 copies, a huge explosion"
"I never thought that the interactive film game "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties" would have such great potential in the QQ game lobby"
"TGP is a newly launched gaming platform, and it is not bad to sell 2.3 copies."
“Oh, by the way, Steam is operated by another company, so we can’t get the specific data.”
"But with the Steam platform included, the estimated daily sales volume is at least 200,000."
-
After hearing the data Vice President Liu said on the phone, Yang Hao was in a very good mood. The only pity was that he didn't know how much effect the 4 copies injected into his system had.
I remember that in my previous life, the sales of "It's Over, I'm Surrounded by Beauties" were about 80 copies in two weeks. Judging from the situation in this life, it should be able to far exceed this figure.
"Daily sales of 20 copies." Yang Hao took out the calculator on his phone and roughly calculated that the commission would be 530 million, which is almost half of the production cost.
Seeing the numbers on the calculator, Yang Hao couldn't help but laugh. It felt so good to make money.
